Teaching 196
1. Here is the Father who comes to reveal himself to the people, who have called on the name of his God at all times, saying that they love him. I see that you are weeping. Many tears are streaming down your cheeks, but not out of love for my divinity, but out of pain, because your life is full of bitterness. It is not a cross that you carry, it is a heavy burden that you can no longer bear. The reason for this is that you have forgotten the teaching, closed the book and distanced yourselves from the commandments it contains.
2. O people who hear this word! Not only have the nations divided, but there is also division among you. Have you forgotten that in 1931 before the ark of the new covenant you vowed union and obedience? You put your orders and your will above mine. But I will destroy your traditions and imperfect laws so that my work may be recognized and my law fulfilled. I will afflict selfishness, pride, and every evil seed with my judgment. The "masters" will disappear from this people, and only the disciples, the servants, will remain. For him who would rise above his people and oppress them, it would be better to be taken from the earth.
3. The year 1947 is now coming to an end, and on its last day it is necessary that you make a firm resolution to fulfill your task, so that it is not my judgment that will show you the way.
4. Do you not want this teaching to come to light and that mankind may know it? Verily, I tell you, there are some who, instead of making it easier for my teaching to come to light, have been concerned with stopping my steps on the way. I touch the hearts of men so that they may know this revelation, that they may receive it pure, as I have given it to you and entrusted it to you.
5. If anyone does not agree to possess a branch of the tree, give it back to Me. It is better for me to get it back than for you to let it grow crooked. The Father is telling you this because I see churches that have closed their gates to charity, and the needy out there are sobbing, and I see the dead.
6. Servants of my work, hear my precepts and obey them, for men will not stop your steps. No one can prevent that this divine plan, of which I have entrusted a part to you, is carried out, if you present this work free of all secrecy, what you can achieve in these last three years of my rallies. In 1950, people with "unbending" necks will come, and ─ will fall before their Lord, defeated by the greatness of my rallies and the purity of your worship ─.
The period of time is short, yet it is enough to remove the materialization, the fanaticism and all the stains that your devotion to God is suffering from. My teaching is spiritual, therefore you call yourselves spiritualists. But have you thought and studied what this means? Does it seem right to you to preach spiritualism with words, but to say just the opposite with your works?
7. How great and pure will you see my work if you make use of this light which I am sending you!
8. It depends on those who preside over every church whether the people will rise spiritually and obey my decrees. Even if my gold feathers would not take part, I leave my words with indelible letters in the Spirit of this people. But once you are at a greater height of spiritualization, your eyes will be amazed when they see the miracles I will do among you. You will then not suffer because of the farewell of my word, because you will feel my presence near. Because the voice bearer is missing to hear me, your spiritual gifts will unfold more strongly, whereby great joy and faith will be given to you, because you will have me as helper in inspiration, spiritual face, prophetic dreams, intuition. You will be refreshed by hearing your own word and seeing your sick recover.
9. The spiritual world, which has more and more light and greater and greater power, will be the good protector and the faithful guardian of the people, so that all in my fields will fulfill their task and work. I see only souls, without making a distinction between those who are in the body and those who are free from it.
10. This is the light of the sixth seal, which has been loosed in this time by my mercy. Already at that time I sent you Jesus, my divine Son, the only one on earth who has obeyed my commandments and fulfilled the will of his Father. But I sent Him so that He would make men His disciples, and they would glorify the Father in following the Master. I sent Him, and He gave you life. But how did you give Him back to Me? Today I come to you ─ anew, not as a man, but as a spirit of consolation.
11. Use my loving help and awaken completely to the light, so that your heart becomes sensitive. Let your soul lead a life of submission and obedience and become my disciple. Believe in this word that I am giving you at this time through the voice bearers and work on you so that you feel his essence and internalize his truth.
12. The mouthpieces I have used so that my word may reach you are indeed not perfect. But they have been chosen by me to carry out my counsel, and so fulfill my promise to return to you. But the rallies you are witnessing today will cease in 1950 to give way to a higher, purer, more spiritual revelation, which will be the Spirit-to-Spirit dialogue in which the child can speak with his Heavenly Father without the mediation of men or spirit beings and receive his inspiration without any limitation.
13. Be content for the time being to hear me in this form as long as you prepare yourselves to be able to enter the new time Fathom my word and be satisfied with its meaning. Let the soul rise so that it may come to Me and drink from the wellspring until it quenches its thirst.
14. Do not bother to judge the voice bearer whose I make use of, neither try to fathom why he has been chosen. I alone know his origin and his destiny in this difficult mission, which for some is the realization of a high ideal, and for others is an atonement and a very great trial.
15. All of you can come to serve Me and use the time I have granted you. Your task is to ward off evil, to pave the way of those who will come after you, and to lay the foundations of a humanity that knows how to love Me and become one with Me.
16. At all times I have given you opportunities to work, so that you may take a further step in your path of development. I have given you the teaching and the means of ascension so that you may come closer to Me. But how many, having reached the end of the path of life and having returned to the "spiritual valley," have examined their life and found it void, without merit. Then they have asked me for another opportunity to give back to their soul the dignity and grace of which they robbed it, and so to offer me a better fulfillment of my commission. I granted them the requested gift, and they returned to earth.
17. I have equipped the soul with intelligence and will to choose the right path and to know how to stay away from the pitfalls and dangers that lie in wait for it at every moment. I have allowed good and evil to exist so that man, out of love for Me and out of respect for himself, may conquer evil and keep away from it. If there were only one way, and you fulfilled your mission unconsciously, carried by the power of the laws of nature, as the stars, the forces of nature or the lower beings do, you would have no merit whatsoever in walking the path of virtue. There would be no wrestling, no striving, nor experiences in your soul. But I sketched out a path of development and placed you at the beginning of it, so that you would ascend through your own efforts, so that you would all get to know this path, which is the only one on which one can reach me.
18. Bring my teaching, and do not act contrary to duty, nor like the evil disciples. Since you carry within you abilities and gifts of grace, with which you can lead your fellow men and relieve them of many evils which strike them today, do not hide these from them. Let your soul speak with the experience that has reached it. In this way you will build up within this great work what is coming to you.
19. You will then save the sheep that have strayed, and you will help the shepherd, who I am, to gather their full number in the sheepfold. In this way you will acquire the merits I have asked you for so that you may achieve the ascension of your soul.
20. On this day, since the first dawn, many souls are rising in prayer for those whom they call "their dead. I tell you that it is very good that you remember them, that you have for them a thought of gratitude, of love, of admiration. But what is not good is that you weep for them as if they were goods that you have lost, and also that you think them dead. For if you could see them in those moments when your eyes shed tears for their sake, and your breast sighs for the sake of those who passed away, you would be amazed at the light that illuminates them and the life that animates them. Then you would cry out, "Truly they are the living, and we are the dead.
21. Do you not truly live in a delusion when you shed tears in the face of a lifeless body, forgetting that the soul lives, vibrates and pulsates?
22. Also, I must tell you: if you were always united by the bond of prayer with those who entered the Spiritual Life, instead of consecrating a day to them according to this tradition, their invisible but real being and their beneficent influence in your life would be felt by you throughout your existence ─ in your struggles, in your trials, and also in your sweet moments. And those beings, in turn, would have the opportunity to participate in your noble works and projects, whereby they would gain more light.
23. I once said, "Let the "dead" bury their dead. If you fathom my words with attention and with love, you will recognize how much reason I had for this when I told you this.
24. I see that you all carry in your heart and in your pictorial memory the last image, the physical sight of your loved ones. Who passed away in childhood, you remember as a child. The one who left this life only at the high age of his earthly garment, you remember him as an old man. It is likewise with him who got rid of a body consumed by pain or passed away during a painful agony. He thus remains forever in your memory. But it is necessary that you reflect on the difference that exists between what is body and what is soul, so that you may conclude that where man dies, the soul is born into a new life, and where some close their eyes to the light of the world, others open their eyes to the divine light that illuminates the eternal life of the soul.
25. I once told you that man is idolatrous by inclination, and through this cult for his "dead" he gives tangible proof of his idolatry. But my teaching has appeared in your lives like a dawn of infinite beauty, casting out the shadows of a long night of ignorance, in which men have always lived unstable. But this light, which rises like a divine star into infinity, will radiate its most beautiful sparks of light on your soul, in a training that will bring you with sure steps so far to become a part of that life into which you all will finally enter through your upward development.
26. You will no longer belong to those who weep bitterly for those who have departed to live in a better world, nor will you belong to those who, as spirit beings, shed tears for the sake of those who left them behind, or because they left that body which has served them as a cover all their lives.
27. There are beings who suffer and are afraid when they look at the decay of the body which they loved so much. But you are to be among those who, when they see that the end of a task performed by that human body has come, sing a song of thanksgiving to the Creator.
28. Today I forgive you all your trespasses, and at the same time I show you one page of the divine book of life, by whose teachings you can enlighten your soul and your mind to do works worthy of Him who taught them to you.
29. You now assume a great responsibility towards mankind, and the more teachings you receive from me, the greater this responsibility becomes. For you are the people who must speak to the world of spiritualization. Implanted in you I will leave behind among mankind the perfect way to have dialogue with me, without idolatrous rites and rituals, simply from Spirit to Spirit.
30. This blessed seed, which is now in your hearts, will be the bread you are to share with your fellow men, and it will also be the spiritual heritage you bequeath to your children
31. When I told you: "Love one another" ─ do not think that this meant only respect for your neighbor, but also respect from one world to another. But today I tell you: When you think of those who have gone, do not feel them far away from you, nor imagine them unfeelingly. Love them and do not remember them as dead, think of them only as living. For they live in eternity and are around you.
32. Verily I say to you, you are the people of Israel, who have gone through various stages and have reached this time without being able to claim that they have fulfilled the mission that has been on them since the first times. They have not spiritualized, because I still hear their lamentations when they see their loved ones pass away, whom they mistake for "dead".
33. Therefore I give you light, inhabitants of this earth, because you have more need of it than those who have passed away into the hereafter, because you are the dead while they live in eternity.
34. To those beings it has been granted by me to approach you in the moment of your devotion But I tell you that you should no longer remember them in the human form they had, because they are now spirits of light.
35. Do not be devoted only to the traditions of the world, spurning the grace that is pouring on you in this time Remember that while you can waste time here, the souls in the hereafter continue to progress.
36. Control the body so that you may use this opportunity for soul liberation and upliftment. Because I will have to call you off into the spiritual, and you will then have to fulfill the law of development, and the soul will watch how the body decomposes in the interior of the earth.
37. If you do not want to reach the thresholds of eternity surrounded by confusion, then fight for your progress, earn merits in the world by bringing the distant men closer to my work, pray and work for the peace of the nations, spread mercy and love among your fellow men.
38. There is still one who says to Me, "Lord, if You are the Almighty God, give me a proof of Your power. But I tell you: How immature are you when you speak in this way to him who would cause the earth to crumble by his mere will.
39. I make myself felt in the soul, which is that which must come to me, and which can recognize my essence. Your body is matter, to which I forgive its weaknesses.
40. Purify yourself, O people, so that you may bring your soul into harmony with your body, and so that you may rise to Me through your own merits. Let men seek me in various churches and sects, do not condemn them, because you also cannot yet accomplish perfect works.
41. Let the idolaters, descendants and imitators of Aaron, formers of gods, continue to worship their various deities in idolatrous figures and images They will now awaken from their deep sleep.
42. It is your business to sow the seeds of spiritualization by showing men that the inner worship of God is the most pleasing to the Father. In this way, men will feel the presence of the spiritual and the divine without asking to see in order to believe. Just as in these moments you have felt the presence of those spiritual beings whom you remember with love and gratitude, and who have approached you like a fragrance, or like an enticement inviting you to follow the path they have laid out for you. Those beings approach men without still feeling the desire for the vanities of this world, and only for this reason, to awaken in souls the desire to attain that life which awaits you.
43. Those who shed tears because of the loss of their loved ones are the "dead," those who lament their dead are those who are materialized in their ignorance, who do not understand the meaning of life, and who, though they claim to believe in the immortality of the soul, prove with their weeping and grief that they have no trace of faith. For they weep for "dead," who live in truth, only because they do not see them, or because their body has disappeared.
44. Remain in peace, according to the commandment of Christ, who says to you once more, "Love one another.
45. Come to Me and strengthen yourselves, rise to the life of grace. Become my disciples, messengers of the Good News. The world longs for my presence, and I will let my word reach it through your transmission. There are those who have been waiting for me for a long time, those who have suspected that now the hour of my presence in the world has come to direct souls on the path of progress and spiritualization.
But before I send you out, you must cleanse yourselves and train yourselves. When the sufferings depress you and you feel tired, remember that I am your helper and help you to bear the cross so that you do not collapse under its weight. If you pray and devote yourselves to the fulfillment of your task, there will be no trial and no obstacle that will make you weak. You will go your way with a smile on your lips and with hope in your heart. You will not fear the future, and any bad judgment or scheme against you will be destroyed. Do not deny me, even though you will be severely tested. For you do not know whether it is my will to grant you a miracle at the height of the trial to testify that you are my disciples.
46. Hear and fathom my
Parable:
47. In the desire for mercy a crowd of the hungry, the sick, and the naked approached a house.
The stewards of the house were continually equipping it to serve those passing through at their table.
The landlord, owner and master of those lands came to preside over the banquet.
Time passed, and the needy always found food and shelter in the house.
48. And one day the Lord saw that the water on the table was cloudy, that the food was not wholesome and tasty, and that the tablecloths were stained.
Then he called to him those charged with the preparation of the dinner table and told them, "Have you seen the sheets and tasted the food and drunk of the water? "Yes, Lord," they answered.
"Then before you give food to these hungry ones, let your children eat of it first, and if they like the food, give it to these guests.
The children took of the bread, the fruits, and what was on the table; but the taste was disgusting, and there was discontent and uproar against it, and they complained violently.
Then the landowner said to those who were still waiting, "Come under a tree, for I will offer you the fruits of my garden and tasty food.
But to the servants he said this: "Cleanse the stained, remove the bad taste from the lips of those whom you have disappointed. I have no favor in you, for I commanded you to receive all the hungry and thirsty, to offer them the best food and pure water, and you have not obeyed. Your work is not pleasing to me."
49. The Lord of those lands now prepared the banquet himself: The bread was full-bodied, the fruit healthy and ripe, the water fresh and refreshing. Then he invited those who were waiting for it ─ beggars, sick and lepers ─, and all satiated themselves, and their joy was great. Soon they were healthy and free from suffering, and they decided to stay on the estate.
They began to cultivate the fields, became field workers, but they were weak and did not know how to follow the instructions of that Lord. They mixed different kinds of seeds, and the crop degenerated, the wheat was choked by the weeds.
When the time of the harvest came, the lord of the manor came and said to them, "What are you doing there, when I have given you only the administration of the house to receive the guests? The seed that you have sown is not good; others are appointed to till the fields. Go and cleanse the land of thistles and weeds, and then manage the house again. The well is dried up, the bread is not strong, and the fruit is bitter. Do to the passer-by what I have done to you. When you have nourished and healed those who turn to you, when you have removed the pain of your neighbor, then I will let you rest in my house".
(End of the parable)
50. My Divine Spirit gives you this Word to guide you on the path of life and to warn you of the dangers that lie in wait for you.
51. You live in the third time, the time of spiritualization.
I give your heart peace, faith, and hope, and it is my divine will that you receive this message in your heart.
53. Bring your worries before the Lord. He has created you, and to Him you must return.
54. It is time that you study the word of the Master, also it is time that you unite yourselves in one mind so that you may remain united with this sublime love.
55. Each one of you has a mission which you have not yet fulfilled.
56. Do not turn away from teaching, receive it with love, so that tomorrow you may not fall into error ─ that error which would stop the progress of your soul and cause you to sink in the muddy waters of error.
57. My truth reveals itself more clearly when I see you prepared. But you are still ignorant, those who have not yet understood me. But I also tell you this: You are those who are nearest to the Father because you are on the way to spiritualization, a way that has no end.
My peace be with you!
