Teaching 116:

1. You are the people in whom I have once again placed My good pleasure, because whenever the pain was very intense among you, you raised your eyes to Me and called Me

2. This is a time of trials; but My Word, as a divine balm, has brought comfort and hope to your tribulations But I ask you: why do you weep, hunger, sickness and need? Why have you slept? Why did you erase from your heart My words of life, which are the food for your soul?

3. You were not prepared when My Presence surprised you, but at least you could feel Me when you realised that My Voice was calling you to give you a new revelation

4. In your desire to come to Me, it was of great benefit to you that you were poor in material goods But not because you voluntarily renounced them to seek spiritualization, but because My caring love separated you from the seductive and superfluous riches so that you would be free when I knocked at the doors of your hearts.

5. When you first came to hear the Word, the spiritual purpose of My rallies interested you little or not at all. That which your heart longed for and asked me for was only earthly goods on which you felt great need. But afterwards you became aware that the gifts which your Master abundantly distributed were spiritual, and finally you understood that the goods of the earth would never have the value of those gifts.

6. When this light shone in your mind, you understood the misery of the great nations, the suffering of those who, though rich and masters of the world, possess everything only by appearance. You have discovered the falseness of splendor, lies, splendor and enjoyment of life.

7. You have experienced the inability of religions to unite and renew mankind, and at every turn you have been witnesses of their disunity.

8. When you saw such a disturbed balance and confusion among men, feelings of gratitude to the Father arose in your heart, for when you heard Him at that time, you found in His words a safe haven for your soul

9. But just as you have become conscious of all these truths, so it is necessary that you also become aware of the responsibility you have toward your fellow men, for you must understand the following: Have I brought the peace that you enjoy and the light that illuminates your existence only to help this people? No, my listeners, my gifts of grace have come down to you only as a firstfruit or as an advance of what I will later give to mankind. Recognize why I tell you that you are to watch in expectation of the homeless who will come in search of shade and a place of refuge. Wouldn't your hearts be delighted if the people who will come from other nations would find in your midst an example of charity, spirituality and peace?

10. This will be your task after I have ceased to give you My teaching And just as Elijah was My forerunner in Spirit, so this people will be My successor, bearing the best testimony with their lives, words and works that I have been among you.

11. Great will be your satisfaction when you know how to receive your fellow men lovingly and give them some of the many that I have entrusted to you. But remember that your pain will be even greater if men would knock at the gates of your city and its inhabitants were asleep or busy doing useless things.

12. Do not be overconfident in your actions, for temptations lie in wait for you, and it can easily happen that he who has already advanced on the path of spiritualization, through the absence of a true and high ideal, may wish to return to the paths of pleasure, to selfish materialism, to a hopeful life.

13. I tell you this so that you may live vigilantly. But do not think that My law tortures or enslaves. True, the step from darkness to light, from evil to good, from low to high, is often painful for man. But when he then succeeds in walking safely on my ways, everything that he encounters on his life's journey is peace, because for the Spirit the exercise of virtue means no sacrifice whatsoever.

14. Which of you could tell Me that I have not urged him to walk in the paths of virtue? behold, I do not want to boast about the benefits I have granted you, but I do ask you to tell Me if I have not performed miracles on you and your families, if I have not healed the sick simply because of your prayers or your tears, if I have not delivered you from death when you were already on the brink of the abyss; I have not, however, asked you to tell Me that I have not performed miracles on you and your families, that I have not healed the sick simply because of your prayers or your tears, that I have not delivered you from death when you were already on the brink of the abyss How could I have refrained from doing this to you, since I know that you will need much faith and strength to go my way?

15. I have brought My Light to you so that you may be edified by its contemplation I have not done it to blind your eyes, nor to hurt your soul

16. Walk the way with serenity and deliberation so that it does not seem to you to be either shorter than it is in reality, nor too far Remember only that the trials in life are the way to attain peace in eternity, of which you are a part by virtue of your Spirit. Walk this path in peace, with the real ideal of perfection, and you will never find it troublesome or difficult. It will be for you like one of those walks where you see a beautiful path ahead of you, a lovely landscape, and where you want it to never end.

17. If I had given you everything in this life, you would have no more desire to go up another level But what you have not achieved in this existence you strive for in another, and what you do not achieve in that one promises you another, higher one, and so it continues step by step on the endless path of development of the soul until all eternity.

18. When you hear my word, it seems impossible to you that your soul should be able to reach such a great perfection; but I tell you that you only doubt the high destiny of the soul because you only look at what you see with your material eyes: wretchedness, ignorance, wickedness. But this is only because the soul is sick in some, paralyzed in others; others are blind, and some are spiritual dead. And in the face of such spiritual misery you must doubt the destiny that eternity holds in store for you. So you live in this time of love for the world and materialism. But the light of my truth has already reached you and has driven away the darkness of the night of a time, which has already passed, and has announced with its dawn the coming of an age, in which the soul will receive enlightenment through my teaching.

19. This light will free you from ignorance, from lies. How much untruth, how much falsification and deceit will be exposed by his brightness forever. Woe to those who have falsified the law. Woe to those who have concealed or falsified the truth. They cannot imagine what their court will be like.

20. My word exhorts the world to reflection, so that repentance may be born out of it, and renewal out of it. But just as the word given through these voice-bearers awakens you and moves you inwardly, so in other countries, in other regions, in other ways, too, emissaries of mine have set out to make the people pay attention, to remind them of the sincerity of my law and of the truth of my teaching. They have prepared themselves in the light of My inspiration, and although they experience mockery and contempt, they proceed step by step in the fulfillment of their task. I tell you that I keep their reward for them and the moment will come when also they will get to know what you are receiving now.

21. Not all those who walk in the streets and alleys and speak of the events of past times and interpret prophecies or explain revelations are My messengers; for many have misused those messages out of vanity, bitterness or human self-interest to insult and judge, to humiliate or hurt, and even to kill.

22. It is necessary that this light, which has so lovingly entered your hearts, should spread from one point of the earth to another, so that people may remember that Christ does not hurt, does not humiliate, and still less brings death. For He is life, bread, health, consolation, and all of these are the needs of humanity today.

23. People, I have spoken with you. Remember My words, seek their help, contemplate life and all that surrounds you with this light I am giving you, so that when you hear Me once more, I will meet you more consciously and better prepared to carry out your mission.

24. I have at all times spoken to you in symbols, but now you are at the beginning of a new epoch in which I will speak to you in a clear way because now you can understand me.

25. Everything in creation speaks to you of God and of eternal life; everything that surrounds you and happens in life is as it were an image of the spiritual. But you have not been content with the works which I have created and by means of which I speak to you, give you revelations and instruct you. Every people, every religious community or sect creates images, symbols, cult forms and sculptures for the representation of the divine. You have deemed this necessary, and I have allowed it to you, O mankind. But now that your Spirit is more enlightened, more developed than in former times, it can clearly recognize and understand life. I will send this message to all so that they may awaken to the light and look fully into the face of the truth.

26. The gifts of the spirit, which have withered through the neglect in which man has kept them, will feel the dew of my love fall upon them, and when men then again lift their thoughts to me in purity, they will see what they have not seen before. They will hear the voice of the Father, which will speak to them in many ways, and they will feel His presence at every turn.

27. Then they will stop creating religious symbols and cult forms, because as they will see the radiant face of the Father in all creation, they will no longer feel the need for these objects to which they attribute special abilities to believe in them as if they were the image of the Father.

28. I ask you disciples who have heard this word in My teachings: why did you think you needed to create symbols for your worship when you had Me before your eyes, heard Me and felt Me?

29. If you answer this question by respecting only what your predecessors left you, I tell you that they, overwhelmed by the light of My Revelation, emblematised what spiritualization is

30. This people has a great spiritual mission to accomplish in the midst of this humanity, which is threatened by the most boundless materialism, which is growing and advancing as a new paganism, as a new and greatest cult with matter, the world and its passions

31. And in the face of these trials - do you still want to retain memories of idolatrous cults? Is this the model of spiritualization you are to give, and are these the weapons you forge to fight with?

32. Let My Word germinate in your heart so that you may soon set out to witness My teaching with your works

33. If I no longer make Myself known to you because this period has come to an end, do not stray from the path, do not fail to seek Me in your afflictions, continue to trust My teaching

34. I am the narrow gate through which you must pass and Mary is the ladder on which you will ascend in love and obedience to your Mother. If you believe Me and adore Me, you will not encounter any pitfalls and shorten the way.

35. You are in the time of the struggle of good against evil. You have been called to work with Me in this battle that has already begun. I have taught you how to fight to drive away darkness and bring light into every soul. My word has guided you so that you live waking and praying, so that you do not let yourselves be seduced by false lights, nor listen to deceitful voices.

36. When this time has passed and you consider My rallies as far away and you, in fulfilment of My instructions, deliver this Good News to your descendants, you will long for these times and will feel happy to have been chosen to witness My Divine Rallies But already at that time all the unfairness you have added to this teaching shall have disappeared, and My Word shall break forth from your Spirit crystal clear and pure, revealing only light and truth.

37. When you are questioned by your fellow men, speak without hiding anything of what My Work contains and in their presence remind the Master in every one of His teachings

38. I hold you responsible for the generations to come, descending from you. Remember that My word of this time has been given not only for a few generations but for all those who will follow you and that they must equip themselves with greater spiritualization to reach the summit which I have called the goal of man.

39. I bless those who follow the upward path and in the course of time reach a greater elevation in the study of My work and who prepare to hear My voice in their spirit as soon as this time of My rallies through the organ of man's mind is over. Blessed are those who believe my work and know how to honor it through their spiritualization.

40. How many of your fellow men can you save through your prayers? This world is on the edge of an abyss, and I send you to it so that you prevent its fall. Stop the youth in their frenzied run, which leads to the destruction of their morals; purify their souls so that they may be the foundations of a righteous and virtuous life.

41. Walk the ways of the world and carry with you as the measure of your lives the truth of my teachings. But respect the land you are entering, then the paths you have travelled will be prepared, and there will be an alliance between nations, and you will make of this earth a home where you will all feel the warmth of the Heavenly Father and recognize each other as brothers and sisters.

42. I have suffered when I saw the ingratitude of My creatures; but if they denied Me as Father, I have never denied that you are My children, even though some are defiled. I have seen great nations turning away from Me and giving themselves only to their material life, their problems, without expecting anything from Me. But soon the time of awakening will come, and starting from the children to the aged, they will dedicate their lives to study and practice My teaching. The old will speak with kindness and will show the way with the light of their experience. The children will surprise the world by the unfolding of their spiritual gifts and by their devotion to My work.

43. Beloved people, draw today from My teaching the highest morality for your life If you want the world to believe in this revelation, give by your lives the greatest testimony to My truth. I have told you to be the pure mirrors, a people who know how to give an example of faith, obedience and purity.

44. Make sure that among you purity and goodness gain power, and with this you will correct those who have entered your ranks without honest intentions.

45. You who have grasped the truth and perfection of My teaching have the duty to counter with your good works all the evil that those who have not grasped its final purpose do to this work.

46. Recognize how the evil seed has multiplied among you until it has almost overgrown the true seed the lie, superstition, hypocrisy, profiteering, bad influences, fanaticism and all the impurities have been the weeds that have spread among this people whom I want to see free from every blemish, to send them as emissaries from Me to other peoples and nations

47. This purifying task I entrust to those who love the true, the pure It is a work of great perseverance. But how great will be the happiness of this people when they then experience that their light has finally dissolved the darkness. Only then will I consider you as messengers of this good news and send you into the world to fight against the kingdom of evil by counteracting its power through the renewal of your fellow men.

48. Consider with how much love and divine patience I have taught and corrected you by telling you to allow me to point out your errors and faults and lead you to perfection But ah how many are there who remain deaf to these words and in their laziness, in their hardness of heart, let precious moments of armament pass by without wanting to believe in the trials that are coming upon them.

49. One day the world will set out to judge and investigate this people, and only he who has "watched" will stand. But he who has used my work for selfish and harmful purposes will see the justice of the earth fall upon him, and then he will lament too late that he wanted to create his own kingdom, his throne of flattery and comfort within my own spiritual work, which is a work of love, humility and renunciation.

50. I tell you all once again: "watch and pray" and if you really believe in My Word, do not put off until tomorrow to do the same, for tomorrow might be too late

51. Behold, people, the earth has already become too small to contain so much human suffering. Once this planet appeared to man as a "valley" without end, now he has conquered and populated it.

52. I gave this world to man as his home and told him, "Grow and multiply and fill the earth," and indeed he has filled the earth, but he has done so with sin and suffering.

53. This world, which was to be the home of a single family embracing all mankind, is the apple of discord and the cause of senseless striving for power, betrayal and war. This life, which should be used for study, for spiritual contemplation, and for the effort to attain eternal life by using the trials and lessons for the benefit of the Spirit, is misunderstood by man, so that he lets his heart be poisoned by resentment, bitterness, materialism, and dissatisfaction.

54. People forget the language with which conscience speaks to them, they lose faith and let the gifts of their Spirit go out, so that some give themselves over to materialism, while others rant about this existence and use an infinite desire as an excuse to flee from this world and enter another country.

55. This I ask: Do you already possess the spirituality necessary to inhabit better worlds? Have you not thought that if you are not mature - even if you could enter the best of the spiritual homes - you would not be able to appreciate the value of that life nor fully enjoy its peace?

56. Verily I say to you The merit of this life which you have today is that the Spirit is able to overcome all the vicissitudes of life and existing needs; and this is not all, but also that you may agree to experience in your spirit the happiness that comes from being useful to your fellows in a world where such great needs prevail.

57. On the day when the soul has reached the perfection necessary to feel in My Kingdom of Heaven, the place or world that inhabits it, or whether it is incarnated or not, will be of no importance to it She will carry within her the Kingdom of Heaven and enjoy its grace in all and every one of the missions that her Father will send her to fulfill.

58. Think about it and realize now that this earth valley is a vast land, offering favorable opportunities to acquire in it the necessary merits to conquer those homes which your Spirit desires.

My peace be with you!
