Teaching 115:

1. I receive you, beloved people, and in you mankind, which is My daughter. in this time I am manifesting Myself through the organ of man's mind, I am giving you strength to return to the path of perfection, to improve your way of life and to feel in your own heart the echo of My divine Voice I am working on you in this favorable time for this, so that you may lift up your Spirit, who is sleeping today, so that you may make your heart sensitive. For I want to be in it not only as a temporary visitor, but as an eternal inhabitant, since you are to build my temple in it precisely according to my will.

2. I am the same "Divine Word" that was revealed in the Second Time in a physical form called Jesus, who lived with you and brought you the meekness of His Word, which was contained in His perfect example. Now I make use of the human instruments that I have prepared and that were predestined for the fulfillment of this sublime mission even before their birth.

3. I have told you that this earth is not your true fatherland, for there really was a time when you had heaven as your dwelling place and were with the Heavenly Father. When you had not yet come down to this planet, you were in the spiritual home where all is light and truth. But you have not firmly imprinted this impression in your soul, and that is why your memory is failing you and you do not remember anything from that life, from your stay in what you call heaven, which does not correspond to what you imagine on the basis of your mind in this world which you call earth.

4. Before your creation you were in Me; after that, as spiritual creatures, you were in the place where everything vibrates in perfect harmony, where is the essence of life and the source of the true light, from which I feed you.

5. Pain was not created by the Father In the times I am speaking to you, you had no reason to sigh, you had nothing to complain about, you felt heaven within yourselves, because in your perfect life you were the symbol of this existence. But when you left that home, I gave your Spirit a garment and you sank deeper and deeper. Afterwards your soul developed step by step until it reached the plane of existence where you are now and where the light of the Father shines.

6. I am the Master of love; therefore, if you do not walk in My ways and do not love men with the love I have taught you, pain hits you because of your disobedience. So with every new case you gain further experience.

7. Man as God's creature is a brother of all creatures from this and the other worlds, for every form of life is a thought of the Father in different manifestations. Since you are endowed with reason, understand that you are a part of this creation and, in this sense, brothers and sisters of all beings, and you must be consciously clear about the position you occupy in creation, in the divine plan and in the universal concert. Why do you not act in accordance with the mission that I have revealed to you? Be apostles of My teaching, in the clear realization that you must develop from stage to stage. Have mercy on yourselves, approach as quickly as possible the way of salvation, which is none other than that of perfect love contained in this simple teaching: "Love God more than all created things and your neighbor as yourself.

8. Teach your brotherly fellow men not only with words but with your works of love. Although I am "The Word" of the Father, I became man in the Second Time to teach you, with My own example, to obey the divine laws. For if I had taught you only with My words, you would have said, "He speaks and does not do a single work. Therefore, I was always as Master among My disciples.

9. Keep My divine teachings and examples, they will be like a staff tomorrow. Ask Me in these moments when I make Myself known through the Word bearer, and if your requests are noble and just, I will answer them. But if you ask without cause, be aware that I will give you only that which you are to receive. Offer spiritual worship to Me and do not be like those who build temples and altars covered with gold and precious stones, who make long pilgrimages, who chastise themselves with crude and cruel scourgings, who kneel down under lip prayers and prayer litanies, and yet were not yet able to give Me their heart. I have admonished you above conscience, and therefore I tell you He who speaks and speaks of what he did and blurts it out has no merit whatsoever with the heavenly Father.

10. If you want to walk in the straight paths of the Lord, do what I have taught you in My words, My examples and with My love. Be humble, repay evil with good, without human ingratitude being important to you. Patiently take up your cross and follow Me.

11. I, "the Word," became man in the Second Time to show you My divine love. I do not spurn to live among you in human flesh. I wanted to be a child of this humanity so that I might feel more a part of it, and so that it might experience Me more closely. That woman who offered her womb so that "The Word" might become man in her was, because of her purity and innocence, the worthy temple for whose sake I had chosen her as a human mother. Mary was the flower of a lineage that had been prepared by the Lord many generations before she was to be born.

12. The maternal love, whose essence and tenderness are in the Father, incarnated in Mary, that virgin who was a flower of purity and innocence.

13. Mary as woman is the embodiment of the universal Mother, is the maternal love that exists in My Divinity and which became woman so that there would be a light of hope in the life of men Mary as Spirit is the divine tenderness that came to earth to weep for the sins of mankind. Her tears mingled with the blood of the Son to teach men to fulfill their task. In eternity, her open arms lovingly await the arrival of her children.

14. From the beginning of mankind the coming of the Messiah was foretold to you; Mary too was announced and promised to you.

15. Those who deny Mary's divine motherliness fail to recognize one of the most beautiful revelations which the Godhead has given to men.

16. Those who acknowledge the divinity of Christ and deny Mary do not know that they are depriving themselves of the possession of the most tender and loving trait that exists in My divinity.

17. How many are there who believe to know the Scriptures and yet know nothing because they have understood nothing; and how many are there who, despite their opinion that they have discovered the language of creation, live in error!

18. The maternal Spirit is lovingly active in all beings; you can see his image everywhere. His divine tenderness has fallen as a blessed seed into the hearts of all creatures, and every kingdom of nature is a living testimony of her, and every mother's heart is an altar erected before that great love. Mary was a divine blossom, and the fruit was Jesus.

19. I became man in that creature, a masterpiece of God's love, to reveal to men the great mysteries of My Kingdom by speaking to them with works and words of love.

20. Everything in Christ spoke because He is the "Eternal Word", the same that you are listening to right now.

21. Beloved disciples, study My teachings with love and good will and you will finally understand all that I have revealed to you through the ages

22. Verily I tell you, you and all those who get to the bottom of this work will be the true interpreters of the Scriptures

23. The history of My people is full of signs and wonders which inflamed the faith of those multitudes in the existence and power of God, the living, invisible and true God

24. The testimony of what that people saw and experienced went down in history and was recorded in writings that all generations have known up to your days. But those testimonies have now come across people without faith and without spiritual preparation, who, in order to believe, consider it necessary to reflect, ponder and research and to subject everything to their science, reason and logic. These men have doubted, others have been confused, some have denied it, and some have scoffed at it.

25. It is only natural that those who try to find the divine truth by seeking it with their eyes or their limited intellect should not take three steps without stumbling or falling into an abyss. Only the Spirit can find the path to truth.

26. It is necessary that I tell you that the testimony of the people who followed me was true; what they bequeathed to posterity was right. They presented the teachings which they had received with their simple and innocent faith, as they saw them and as they had grasped all events.

27. All those events, works, and trials, of which the ancients speak to you, contain one truth, one light, one revelation. They believed without investigating, because they witnessed the events. It is incumbent upon you to get to the bottom of things and then to believe, in order to extract the spiritual content from what has been revealed to you.

28. Everything has such a simple and plausible explanation. But I tell you again that to find it, the Spirit must progress in deep thought.

29. Great will be the astonishment of this materialized humanity when even its science and its observations prove to it the truth of many of those events which it would not accept. Then she will say in surprise, "It was the truth". But all that which you call miracles today is nothing else but the material realization of a divine message, a message whose voice speaks to you incessantly of something that is beyond your planet and your mind, of something that comes directly from My Spirit to yours.

30. Today My Fatherly is with you I hear your petitions, even the slightest of your complaints. I want you to learn to speak to your Father. But do not think that I have come only to you. No, I have come down upon all My children, for the wailing of these men reached the heights of heaven like a cry of fear, like a supplication for light.

31. When you receive My word in this form, you ask yourselves inwardly whether I come as father or as judge. Then I tell you that, even before you hear My first word of this day, your conscience has already indicated to you every one of your transgressions and also every one of your good works.

32. But if I should judge you in My word - why are you afraid? Does not my judgment come out of the love I have for you?

33. I am awakening you so that trials do not catch you unprepared, so that the storms and whirlwinds of this time do not separate you from the light

34. Certainly this is a time of afflictions, so it is necessary to be strong and equipped not to succumb.

35. Life on earth has always been accompanied by trial and atonement for man; but never has this path of development been so full of pain as now, never has the cup been so full of bitterness.

36. At this time men do not wait until adulthood to face the struggle for life. How many creatures know disappointments, the yoke, blows, obstacles and failures from childhood on. I can tell you even more: in these times, man's pain begins even before he is born, that is, already in his mother's womb.

37. Great is the duty of atonement of the beings who come to earth at this time! But you must remember that all suffering that exists in the world is the work of men. Is there any greater perfection in my righteousness than to allow those who sowed thorns in the way of life to reap them now?

38. I know that not everyone is equally guilty of the chaos you are experiencing. This is true, but I tell you that those who are not the causers of war are responsible for peace.

39. To you, people, I say: have mercy on yourself and your neighbor. But for this mercy to be effective, recognize your spiritual gifts through the study of My work. The one who loves his fellow man loves Me, for his fellow man is My much-loved child.

40. You are a people whom I prepare for prayer, for teaching the truth, for healing. Life with its misery, its toils and bitterness has become like a desert. But I tell you that you should not stop or persevere in the desert, because then you will not know true peace.

41. Have in mind the example of Israel, of whom the history books tell us, when it had to wander through the desert for a long time. It fought to escape the captivity and idolatry of Egypt, but also to reach a land of peace and freedom.

42. Today all this mankind is like that people in the captivity of Pharaoh. Creeds, doctrines, and laws are imposed on the people. Most of the nations are slaves of others who are stronger. Hard struggle for survival and forced labor under the lashes of hunger and humiliation are the bitter bread that a large part of humanity eats today.

43. All this causes more and more that a longing for liberation, for peace, for a better life arises in the hearts of the people.

44. The roar of war, the human blood that is shed, selfishness, the desire for power and hatred, which bear fruit in a thousand ways, awaken people from their deep lethargy. But if this longing of all My children unites them in a single ideal, as the people of Israel united in Egypt under the inspiration of Moses - what man, what threat, what power could stop these hearts? In truth no one, for in this longing My Light will be present, in this struggle My Power will be present, in this ideal My divine promises will be effective.

45. Does the world need a new Moses to free itself from its chains? I tell you that the teaching I have brought you in this time is the light that inspired Moses. It is word of justice and prophecy, it is power that lifts up the weak, the fearful, the cowardly, and transforms him into a courageous, determined, fervent one. It is law that leads and guides on the path of truth; it is manna that keeps alive in the long days of wandering, and finally it is liberation, is peace, is welfare for the people of good will.

46. You feel encouraged by My Word, people, and as if a wonderful balm is dripping down on your wounds, you feel strengthened, renewed, full of hope for the morning Therefore I ask you: do you not believe that if you bring the same message to the oppressed peoples of the earth, it would work the same miracle on them?

47. This is why I tell you again and again to prepare yourselves so that you do not delay the time when you can set out as messengers of this inspired message When I tell you to prepare yourselves, it is because this good news is to be spread in such a way that it will not be a cause of pain, that it will not cause fratricidal strife, or that a single drop of blood will be shed because of it.

48. My message is convincing, gentle, full of truth. It touches the heart as well as it speaks to the mind and convinces the Spirit.

49. Hear me, study, put it into action, and you will be able to beat breaches for men to faith, light, freedom and peace.

50. For this I teach you the perfect worship of my divinity. I want you to understand that you are only to pray to me because I am the giver, without whose will or permission nothing happens.

51. Mary, your Heavenly Mother, is the owner of gifts and graces. Therefore, if your elevation is low or your insufficient elevation makes you unworthy to speak to Me, pray to her, seek her assistance and intercession, and truly I tell you, in this way your petitions will quickly reach Me.

52. I am giving you these explanations because you have made the Spirit of many righteous men into gods whom you ask and worship as if they were gods. What ignorance, O mankind! How can men judge the holiness and perfection of a Spirit only by his human works?

53. I am the first to tell you to emulate the good examples which your brothers and sisters have written with their works, with their life and virtue, and I also tell you that in remembrance of them you may hope for their spiritual help and influence. But why do you build altars for them, which only serve to offend the humility of those souls? Why do men create cults in their memory as if they were God, and put them in the place of the Father whom they forget because they worship their brothers and sisters? How painful for them has been the glory you have given them here!

54. What do men know of My judgment on those whom they call saints? What do they know of the spiritual life of those beings, or of the place which each of them has earned before the Lord?

55. Let no one think that with these revelations I will blot out from your hearts the merits which My servants have earned among you. On the contrary, you are to know that the grace they have found with me is great, and that I grant you much through their prayers. But it is necessary that you eliminate your ignorance, from which religious fanaticism, idolatrous being, and superstition originate.

56. When you feel that the Spirit of those beings surrounds your sphere of life, trust them, since they are part of the spiritual world, that they and you, united in the way of the Lord, may accomplish the work of spiritual brotherhood - that work which I expect as a result of all my teachings.

57. I teach you in this way that you may accomplish your task with a pure heart.

58. Truly this existence is a new stage of development for your Spirit, who had left unfinished a work entrusted to him and who has now been given the opportunity to advance it a little further on the way to perfection.

59. I, too, the Divine Master, had to return to men, because My work from that time remained unfinished. Some reject this claim and say that the work of Jesus was completed when He died on the cross. But they say this because they have forgotten that I announced and promised My return to you. But you, to whom I am now revealing these teachings, should understand that reincarnation is not absolutely necessary for me, because in my Spirit lies the power to reveal myself to mankind in a thousand ways. Nor have I come back in search of perfection of my Spirit. When I come to you now, it is only to continue to show you the path that leads you to the light. Remember that the prophets told you in the First Time, "He is the Gate. Did I not also tell you, when I became man among you, "I am the Way"? Do I not tell you now: "I am the summit of the mountain which you are currently climbing"?

60. Verily, I tell you, I have always been in perfection. Today it gives me joy to see you walking safely on My way. Tomorrow there will be universal rejoicing when you all live in the spiritual home which has long awaited the coming of the children of the Lord.

61. So I speak to your Spirit because I know that he can now comprehend this teaching and can tell him that he is not a child of this earth, that he is only to consider himself a guest here on this world because his true fatherland is spiritual.

62. Take this word in its right sense, because otherwise you could finally think that my teaching is directed against all human progress. But it would not be fair if you were to ascribe such errors to your father, who only strives for the perfection of his children on their different ways of life.

63. That which My righteousness pursues irreconcilably is evil, which takes various forms in the human heart and sometimes manifests itself in selfish feelings, in base passions, in excessive greed and even as hatred.

64. Disciples, study carefully what I am now telling you figuratively: Life is a tree, its branches are innumerable, and of these branches there are not two that are alike, but each of them fulfills its task If a fruit fails, it is rejected by the tree, and if a branch shows wild growth, it is pruned, for only fruits of life may come forth from the tree of life.

65. Verily, I tell you, every science that has caused evil, and every religion that has not spread real light, you may regard as branches and fruits through which the sap of the tree of life does not flow because they have been rejected by it.

My peace be with you!
