Teaching 198
1.Blessed is he who comes to me with humility.
2. Now are the times in which I will leave behind men prepared mentally and intellectually, so that they bear witness to the truth of my coming.
3.When my disciples go through the world and speak and teach in my name, they will find in themselves faith and
Have certainty that I will come to their aid in the moment of trial because I have always and everywhere given proofs of my love and my presence.
4.When sorrow weighs on you and you call on your Father because your faith gives you the conviction that you will be heard and that your sorrowful face will be seen by the Lord, then you feel a comfort and a hope which is the caress which the Master gives you when He hears your supplication.
5. I life presents itself to man full of pitfalls and sufferings, and he then seeks the consolation of his Father ─ why should I not come and strengthen him when he is the child I love and I am truly He who can raise him up again?
6. Divine love is pouring out on humanity in every moment, and this is testified by those who have felt Me deeply in their heart For although I am omnipotent, I limit myself to come close to man and to be felt by him.
7. Condemn no one. See how people of different religious communities pray in different ways, each different from yours. I have revealed to you that I come down to all and hear all. For I will not hide myself from anyone who seeks me.
The others, however, will very well condemn you because of your spiritual way of praying and also because you have believed in my rallies through the mind of man. How many of you have already become victims of slander and mockery on the part of those because you have accepted my rallies in this form! Only the flame of faith that burns in the heart of this people has made you stand the tests, and this is because you trust that this teaching, having survived great controversies, will be recognized throughout the world. You who hear my word directly and will be teachers among men will not see the result of your work from this world. For it will take time for the seed to bear its fruit.
8. This humanity is gradually accepting the idea of the spiritual. Once it has reached a certain level of development, it will find that there was no deception in my rallies and revelations; that it was truth, that the Master exuded himself in love, wisdom, and grace through uneducated but receptive governing bodies, enlightened by my divinity. These were indeed still imperfect; but since I am purity itself, I made use of the organs of mind of men who constantly fight against their own inclinations.
If man believes that I should make myself known only through a just and perfect man in order to be credible, he is in error, and I would ask him: Are the representatives of my divinity in the religious communities perfect and just men? Verily, I tell you, I do not find a single righteous man among them in the whole earth. Yet they are interpreters of my Word revealed in the past times.
9. The voice-bearers through whom I speak to you are not my representatives, nor my servants. They are only tools to convey my objection.
10 . Many lessons have my teaching brought you. I have told you that it is not necessary for you to build magnificent churches to please your God, that it is not necessary for you to confess your sins before another sinner like yourselves. That the best church you can enter to worship Me is your own heart, and that if you feel sincere repentance for your transgressions and fight against yourselves to mend yourselves, you will truly obtain forgiveness through Me. The proof that you have washed away your stains of shame will be the peace that your Spirit experiences and the joy that overflows your heart.
11. Why do people speak of "supernatural" when everything in Me and in My work is natural? Are not rather the evil and imperfect works of men "supernatural," since the natural thing would be that they would always act well in view of Him from whom they have come forth, and of the qualities which they possess and carry within them? In me everything has a simple and deep explanation, nothing remains in the dark.
You call all that "supernatural" which you do not understand or consider wrapped in mystery. But as soon as your soul, by merit, has achieved its elevation, and sees and discovers that which it could not see before, it will find that everything in Creation is natural.
12. If a few centuries ago mankind had been told of the progress and discoveries that man would make in the present time, even scientists would have doubted and considered such marvels to be supernatural. But today, as you have developed and followed the progress of human science step by step, you consider them natural works, even if you admire them.
13. Verily I say to you: tomorrow, when man's spiritual dialogue with his God will spread over the face of the earth, mankind will become familiar with these rallies. It will believe that I made myself known through the human mind, will believe in what I spoke, and will no longer judge such rallies as something impossible or supernatural.
14. It will be the people of tomorrow who will know the greatness and the essence of my teaching, on the basis of the writings that remain of my words. The simplicity with which I explained the profound, the unfathomable, the simplicity with which I explained the truth to you, will arouse admiration in them.
15. So prepare yourselves my word that you may answer those who come in desire for this knowledge. There will come to you men who will not be satisfied with simple explanations. There will come scientists who have spent their lives questioning nature and books, and they will ask you: "Why did the Lord not materialize, since He had the power to do so, and explain what discoveries science would make?
16. Then you shall answer: "At the core of the divine Word, whose simplicity contains wisdom, lies the explanation and prophecy of what man will realize and of what mankind expects.
17. Disciples, already today I say to you: Do not think that the wisdom which I teach you in my revelations is there for you to set it against the teaching of men. If you want to take this path, I tell you already now that you will not succeed.
18.You do not need to be taught to come to Me; it is enough to have spiritual elevation to express My Word as Jesus revealed it in the Second Age and as I am giving it to you today: full of simplicity and love. Has it revealed scientific scholarship? Is it trying to solve the scientific problems of the people of this time?
19. I speak only to the Spirit. I have taught only the way that leads to perfect life, and you too have this task: to speak to the Spirit and show him on the horizon the silhouette of the "Promised Land".
20. Present my teaching honestly and unadulterated, and allow man to research, to investigate and to ask questions. I do not disapprove of this, nor do I prevent it. Let each one seek the course of action possible for him to find the truth.
21. Sow, your seed will bear fruit tomorrow. It does not matter that it is only future generations who will reap the fruits.
22. Study my word and delve into its meaning.
23. I come to give you my teaching, and not to consider your blemishes and your sinfulness.
24. The "people of Israel" shall show an example of courage, because "Israel" is "the strong one" of mankind.
25. You shall receive new commandments by which the multitudes shall know me.
26. The horrors (of war) are unleashed, and while "Israel" sleeps, men beg for mercy, and have received it from me. But it is my will that mankind receives this through the preparation of my people.
27. Ye shall have the example of the Father before your eyes, when ye practice submission and obedience.
28. When the time is come, you shall receive a commission. You will go to foreign lands. You will make no racial distinctions, and besides, I tell you The time will come when the Father will make himself felt in all hearts.
29 . I do not look upon your human vanities. I only see that your heart and Spirit have sought Me, and I will send you into the provinces as messengers of the Master, who, like Jesus in the Second Age, teach by example.
30. Yes, "Israel", bring my word, which is the juice of eternal life.
31. Your task is to give the world what is due to it in fulfilment of my commission. For you are the owners of the light and grace of the Third Age.
32. I am the Father, who sets himself up full of love to raise you anew to the life of grace, to set you on the right path. You have demanded much from Me in the Second Time, but now I am with you in Spirit and again I give you my word, my "divine word", which is characterized by love, so that you may follow my perfect teaching and bring it to the world.
33. With my word, which is a very fine chisel, I work your heart, for I still see it sleeping
34. It is a gracious dawn, in which the Master comes down upon all his disciples.
35. The seers have witnessed my presence and have seen the light of my Spirit.
36. They have prepared themselves inwardly, and have closed their eyes to the stimulations of the world, and out of their mouths have come prophetic words.
37. Continue to work on yourselves, for if you would not do so ─ verily, I say to you The stones would speak.
38. But I say also unto you, I will not compel you. I want love to flow out of your hearts simply and naturally.
39. Prepare yourself, people, for though you do not even know exactly where from, crowds of people from various villages and lands will set out and come to the places of assembly.
40. Rise in prayer. Help your fellow men. Study my word. I do not want to see "Israel" ashamed because it did not know how to fight. No, people. Bring one, two, or three seeds before Me, but your seed must be pure. Your business is to understand my word correctly.
41. I am a loving Father, and I come to you as a Father, because as a judge I am implacable. renew yourselves, prepare yourselves so that you may always see Me as Father
42. The time of the great battle is drawing near For three years you still have my word, and the father wants to leave the crowds of believers instructed. But you, whom I leave behind in the assembly places as leaders of the churches, must prepare yourselves well.
43. Gain understanding and do not let the world
robs the lifeblood of my word and its essence returns to my divine throne.
44. Withdraw yourselves from the world and remember my words which say to you, What you were before, you shall not be today, and what you are now, you shall not be tomorrow Renew yourselves. Reject what is superfluous and bad. I want neither bigots nor fanatics.
45. In the first time I sent Moses to you, in the second time I was among you in Jesus of Nazareth, and today you have Me as the Holy Spirit. I see your souls on the "Jacob's Ladder" as you receive the grace and light of My Spirit.
46. You all form one people. You are all one child to whom I give my kiss of peace.
47. Study my word and bring it to the crowds, for the way is now prepared. The people will come to this nation. Give them the best "feast", show them a good example, so that they may recognize you as disciples of the Holy Spirit.
48. Each of you has a spiritual being around you, who protects you. When the moment has come, it will answer to Me for you, and you for this. Truly, I tell you, great is the responsibility you bear.
49. Have zeal and desire to fulfill your task and remain united in one ideal and one will. Stand before my justice, which sees even the innermost beating of your heart.
50. Time is precious. You must rise hastily, with love, to fulfill my mission; some already as disciples, others as disciples.
51. Leave to the world what you belong to, and have one goal, which is the salvation of the soul. For you will have to give an account of all that you have worked for on this planet when the time comes.
52. You are not ignorant or unaware; you do everything with knowledge of the cause.
53. I warn you of the events to come. When you no longer hear my word, you shall have dialogue with me from Spirit to Spirit.
54. Today I see you united in the likeness of my apostles of the Second Age, and I am working on you to do great miracles
55. You have great power. Therefore give to your fellow men of the many that I have given you in my word.
56. I have exuded My wisdom among you, but I see the hungry wolf in sheep's clothing who wants to devour you by giving you sinful thoughts to corrupt you. But when I see that your being is near to perish, I am there as father, who comes to your aid, because I do not want that you perish.
57. Small is the flock that carries in its heart the love of the Father and has the will to serve me. But I tell you: Remain steadfast so that you may attain the development of your soul in my law.
58. I will see you united in this way. For if you stand by the Father, I will stand by you. I will not leave you for a moment, and temptation shall be kept away from the "people of Israel.
59. Fathom my word, understand that the time of my rallies is short, and make you aware how great my love is and how great the light I put into your soul. Know that you must come purely to me.
60. "My kingdom is not of this world," therefore understand me when I say to you: What you work for on earth, I will preserve for you in the hereafter.
61. Here at this table I await you all. In my presence races, castes and descent disappear. You all belong to Me equally; you all have one soul as a precious jewel, and it is this soul that I turn to.
62. If you want to know, this was the place destined for my new revelation to the world, where you would see me coming "on the cloud" in the face of all the peoples of the earth.
63. Understand these words correctly. With this I want to tell you that I come down in the Spirit to all, but that not all will hear this word. Likewise it happened in those days: one people witnessed my teaching, my works, and the other peoples of the earth believed on the basis of the testimonies.
64. Today I gather the souls of that people to perfect their mission under the word of their Master.
65. I do not promise them earthly kingdoms, but a kingdom of eternal light for the soul.
66. Their souls, which are now still full of selfishness in the face of the needs of their neighbors, will be generous "tomorrow" to let their fellow men share in the inheritance which I have granted them.
67. Those who at that time expected the coming of the Messiah as that of a king of the earth and saw Him coming in His divine humility became discouraged and confused. Why should you imitate them today and be confused when you see that I reveal myself in this way, although you have already had earlier examples that the kingdom of your Lord is not of this world?
68. I am instructing a people so that tomorrow they may teach all those who have not had the opportunity to hear Me in this form Those who hear Me today hear a Father who with great love announces to them an imminent farewell and who, for this reason, gives his Fatherly love to all those who surround him to an excess. It is the voice of a father who wants them to remember him, who does not want to leave any of his children sobbing, who has the desire that all may enjoy his inheritance, and this is that of his love.
69. Everything this people needs for the coming battle, its great spiritual battle, it will have, because He will cause my seed to sprout anew with His fruitful rain.
70. Yes, people, my name will be again on every lips, my mind in every heart, and my law will be revealed in all consciences. How happy will be those who have participated in this divine work, for this spiritual bliss will compensate them for all their tribulations and sufferings. They will remember that here on earth they were the disciples of Christ, that they lovingly guarded the seed that the Divine Master taught them to plant.
71. Achieve this peace for your soul, O people, acquire this place in eternity.
72. I as Master go before you and guide your soul. Therefore the works of my disciples shall be clear, then those who contemplate you will take you as an example.
The world is hungry, and you have the bread that feeds. I prepare you as I did with my apostles. If you follow Me as they did, you will feel my power to fight all evil. All forces of nature will help you in your mission if you know how to use them.
73. Today you see among men lack and poverty, the concern to obtain the bread for the body while you have maintained yourselves without suffering such hardships, because I want you to have peace, and that you dedicate part of your time to the practice of my teaching
Many men and women emigrate and seek refuge in this land for their hearts weary of fighting, and they will find a blessed land, rich in benefits, and you will share your bread with them, and they will find shelter and make their home here.
74. Awake, people, for only three years remain in which I will make myself known to you. Seek me already today from spirit to spirit, because already the hour is approaching in which you will feel yourselves orphaned, and I want that you are strong in the test. The spiritual world will then no longer give you its word of encouragement, of advice. You will no longer hear this "concert" sounding down from the beyond, and therefore it is necessary that you know how to swing yourselves up to continue to nourish your soul.
75. Approach what is perfect. Unite your will with mine. Seek all good for your soul, and love the earthly goods less. Humanity has reached a limit where I will hold it back. The darkness will disappear, "the weeds will be pulled out, bundled and thrown into the fire," as it is written. All this will happen. I am preparing you for it, people, so that you may recognize the time in which you live, and you may shake up your fellow men. Blessed is he who is ready to redeem himself, who prays and repents, for he will be saved. But if you are rejected for this reason, if you are hurt, remember Jesus in his divine passion and take him as your model.
76. Be understanding and forgive the insults. You shall have no "enemies", and if they fight you, take up your weapons of love, of light. If you behave in this way, you will attain perfection and have the gift of peace on earth. I give you the seed, your task is to plant it.
77. The time when I had to come was predestined, and this prophecy has come true It was said: "Men will reach the summit of sin and materialism. The wars will spread from nation to nation like a fire that destroys everything. Hatred and evil will grow like weeds and cover the fields.
78. I knew that in time you would forget Me, and that My word would depart from your hearts. Therefore I announced my return to you.
That light has been darkened, the human heart is cold and callous like the night when Jesus was born, and the Mother, since she found no shelter in the homes of men, sought refuge in the peasant shelter of shepherds and flocks.
79. Today I have not prepared a womb to become man, because I came in the Spirit to speak to you.
And in the midst of such great hard-heartedness and unbelief I have found you. I have chosen you, and you have prepared your heart to receive Me. You have listened to Me, and your faith has become inflamed.
80. If you want to follow Me, obey my word. I will help you bear your cross. But I do not want this people who believe Me today to judge Me tomorrow and condemn Me like the one who put Me on the cross. Today you do not know which will remain faithful. I tell you that they will be few, and sometimes they will be lonely. But their way will be open, and the angels will protect them and rescue them from danger to lead them to the heavenly hurdle.
My peace be with you!
