Teaching 137:

1. My light and my power are revealed among you. From the beginning the light of My Spirit has illuminated the path of men. Every age, every age has been a witness of My revelations. Your Spirit knows that I have spoken to him in many forms. This light shows you the path that My mercy has marked out for you, so that on it you may reach My divinity, where your origin was.

2. In man is the Spirit. The Spirit is the light of the Divinity. That is the reason why I am in your Spirit in each of you. If today you do not appreciate the greatness of the way I am presently manifesting myself, tomorrow you will understand it. Here you have the way, pure of human unfairness. With this I do not want to tell you that your religions are bad. I do not want to divide you; for if each one really does what his religion commands him, he would find salvation. Do not all teach to love God and his neighbor? But I see that on many occasions you yourselves use the truth to misjudge one another.

3. What I teach you is love, for it is from it that the purest and most sublime feelings, the highest inspirations spring. You lack love, therefore you walk in darkness. When I overthrow idols and reject rites, it happens so that you can see the light of truth with greater clarity. As Master I give you My teachings. One of them is that I am currently giving you My teachings through men, without it being indispensable that they be just and pure in heart. How often, in My eyes, the voice bearer whom I use can be more sinful than those whom I am teaching. My power and My wisdom inspires him so that holy, righteous and pure thoughts may break out of his mouth. Hence it is that when these organs of communication communicate with their Lord, the spiritual life is reflected through them and they reveal to you much of what is beyond your life.

4. It was not necessary for you to see or touch me to be able to believe because your spirit was prepared in its development to feel my presence in spiritual form.

5. Your heart is surprised to receive certain ideas. The reason for this is that it does not know the way the Spirit has gone. In the same way, the precocious intelligence of the children of this time surprises you, who ask you questions that prove that they have knowledge that they have not been taught at this stage of their spiritual life. It is the light that the Spirit has collected on his long journey and that is reflected in every existence. You ask Me: "If You manifest Yourself with such great wisdom, and if our Spirit is prepared - why do You not tell us all that Your teaching still holds for us? - It is very important what I still keep for you, but I cannot give it to you all at once so as not to cause confusion in your Spirit or your mind.

6. I will always tell you: if you do not want the light of revelation to be withheld, it is necessary that you persevere in this way of love for your Father and for your fellow men.

7. Walk the way with moderate and firm steps, do not go in haste or rush, for you would stumble and in the end not even know which way you have gone.

8. Disciples, from time to time I must tell you that you should not consider teaching in one place of assembly to be better than in another, nor judge the work of a voice bearer to be better or worse than this or that. The meaning of My teaching is one with all, and the difference is external, is superficial, it is in the way of speaking. I will always tell you to seek my truth in the spiritual sense of this word.

9. Mankind finds faith; my work will spread over the world. I will begin with 144,000 marked ones who will fight with obedience, with love and zeal in the time of the clashes of creeds and teachings, and in the midst of this battle they will be like a link that will propose to the world not a chain of enslavement, but one of the spiritual covenant that will be of freedom and brotherhood. These soldiers will not be alone; my spiritual hosts of light will follow them and protect them; they will perform miracles on their ways and in this way bear witness to my truth.

10. Carry your cross with patience and devotion until the end, then it will be My Mercy that will free you from it when you arrive at the gates of that Home I have promised you where you will enjoy true peace Now you are the pilgrims, you are the soldiers, the fighters, chasing an ideal, striving for the conquest of a better homeland.

11. But you are not alone in your struggle; never has man been, for I have always shown him the best way.

12. If anyone should ask Me how the people of the Lord were led before they knew the law that Moses received from the Lord, I would answer him that even before Moses, I sent to the world spirits of great light, patriarchs and prophets, who bore the law in the light of their conscience, to teach it to all their neighbors through their works.

13. Those men honored Me by their lives. They were not idolaters, for they already knew spiritualization; they had a feeling of love and mercy with others, they knew how to receive the stranger in their country home, and in their home they were hospitable with the weary traveler. For all of them they had a good word and wise advice ready.

14. But not all men knew how to be guided by the voice of their conscience, for this requires spiritualization, while the senses of the flesh do not understand it. It was therefore necessary that your Father should make himself known in many ways among men, to explain the law and reveal to them the divine teachings.

15. You, My people, who hear this Word in the Third Age and who still keep some of the seed I entrusted to you in past times, understand that you must cleanse your heart from selfishness and materialism so that you may reach the happy moment from which you may again let your life be guided by the instructions of your conscience, as those enlightened ones did, like Abraham, from whom came the people who have been at all times the keepers of My revelations.

16. When the time comes when My rallies in the form you have now come to end, I want you to be so largely equipped that every Spirit of the people who form this people here will be like a temple to Me, every heart a sanctuary, every home an altar, a patriarchal house, hospitable and full of charity How deep then will your peace be. How brave then will your heart be to stand in all trials.

17. The bread will then be blessed not only by Me but also by you, because then you will have learned to prepare it with love, with faith, with peace.

18. The spiritual strength with which I have endowed you is nothing but the seed of spiritualization. In truth I tell you whoever nurtures that seed in his heart and cares for it with true love will not become a victim of plagues nor of furies of the unleashed forces of nature, nor will material needs torment him in a depressing way.

19. But you shall not wait for those days to come upon you. Nay, people, with your spiritualization you shall be among those who, by their prayer, obtain their Father's forgiveness, and who understand all that the Spirit is capable of when he is able to rise above the mud, dust, and filth of a materialized and unclean life.

20. Do not forget, O disciples, that spiritualization cannot allow fanaticism of any kind, deification or prejudice, for then it would no longer be spiritualization.

21. He who carries sincerity in his heart and strives to honor Me through the deeds of his life needs no external cults to feel that he has fulfilled the laws of his Father and Lord. On the other hand, the one who carries in his heart the restlessness that his judging conscience makes tangible to him, eagerly seeks external cults and rites, in the false belief that through them he can reconcile himself with his Creator.

22. Be plain as the flowers, and without deceit as the birds, be transparent as the air, and clear as the pure water, and ye shall have attained that purity and exaltation which shall make you know all the truth which life contains.

23. Whoever claims that My teaching is a danger to the material progress of mankind is thereby committing a grave error, for when I, the Supreme Teacher, show the Spirit the way to its atonement, I also speak to the mind, to reason and even to the senses. My teaching not only inspires and teaches you the spiritual life, but brings light into every science and into all human ways; for my teaching is not limited to bringing souls on the way to the home, which is beyond this existence, it also reaches the heart of man to inspire it to lead a friendly, worthy and useful life on this earth.

24. If I told you in the Second Time that my kingdom is not of this world, I tell you now that yours is not here either, because this earthly home is - as you already know - only temporarily meant for man.

25. I teach you true life, which was never founded on materialism. Therefore the lords of the earth will again rise up against my teaching. I come to you with My eternal teaching, with My teaching that has always existed, which speaks of love, of truth and of justice. Nevertheless, it will not be immediately understood. The world will again condemn me; this mankind will once again lay the cross on my shoulders. But I already know that my teaching must go through all these hostilities so that it is recognized and loved. I know that my most persistent persecutors will be my most faithful and selfless sowers afterwards, because I will give them very great proofs of my truth.

26. Nicodemus, in the Second Age a prince among the priests - the one who visited Jesus to talk with Him on subjects of high wisdom ─, will appear again in this time to explore My Work in a calm way and convert to it

27. Saul, hereafter called Paul, who became one of My greatest apostles, after having cruelly persecuted Me before, will appear again in My way, and My new disciples will arise everywhere, fervently some, sacrificing others. The present is of great importance. The time of which I speak to you is at hand.

28. This war of ideas, these struggles that you are now witnessing and these events of which you are daily eyewitnesses - do they not speak to you of something coming towards you, do they not let you suspect that your epoch is coming to an end and that a new age is beginning to spread its light?

29. I only want you, the witnesses of My Word in this time, to stand firm in the moments of trial that will precede the establishment of My Law, My Kingdom among you Then I will be like the whirlwind under whose violence the earth and the seas where this humanity dwells and moves will have to foam up and be stirred up in their depths to expel from them all the impurity that they contain within them.

30. Fear not when these events occur. You shall understand that the beginning of the end of an age has come, and that the dawn is approaching of an epoch of peace.

31. Wickedness, injustice, arrogance, bondage, ignorance, earthly violence will perish to make way for the establishment of the kingdom of love, light and peace among men You shall not then despair, you shall not extinguish your lamp, even if you feel that the test is very hard, and that the cup you have to drink is very bitter. On the contrary, you must then light and revive the flame of hope, as the soldier in the turmoil of battle does when he feels that he is close to overcoming the enemy and that victory is already within his grasp.

32. When you see yourselves surrounded by hostile crowds whose tongues hurl poison against you and whose eyes cast flames of hatred against you, do not doubt my promises In these moments I will make you feel My reassuring Presence and let you hear My loving voice telling you again, "I am with you.

33. You will often experience how among those multitudes a heart will appear that understands you and that is like a shield for you But you will only achieve this if you put your trust and your faith in Me.

34. Remember Daniel, that faithful prophet, who in Babylon defended the truth of the only God so emphatically, and whom I saved from his enemies.

35. Before the battle begins, water once more the seed which the Eternal One sowed in the Spirit of men. Allow the tares to be cut off by the sickle of my righteousness, and the fields to be plowed up so that they are suitable for the cultivation of the teaching of love.

36. It is necessary to grant a few moments longer to those who cling to the goods of the earth, so that their disappointment may be absolute and they may be convinced that the gold, power, titles, and pleasures of the flesh will never give peace and prosperity to the soul.

37. The hour is drawing near in which the works of all mankind will be judged in the light of conscience. At that time the scholars, theologians, scientists, the rulers, the rich, and the judges will ask themselves what is the spiritual, moral, or material fruit they have reaped. When they then see how small their harvest is, many will return to me, because they recognize that, despite the fame they had on earth, they lacked something to be able to fill the emptiness into which their soul had fallen, which can only feed on the fruits of spiritual life.

38. For these souls I have already prepared an oasis in the midst of the desert, because I know that during their existence they knocked from door to door and traveled distance after distance, some in search of truth, others for power and still others for happiness But at the end of the way they have gone through on earth they were close to denying everything; then I will spread out my arms to them to let them rest at my breast. I will comfort them and show them which is the true way, so that they may find in it the fields where they can sow the fertile seed of their experience.

39. The oasis is spiritual, and in all the ways of the desert people of all races will come to it - some exhausted, others full of wounds, greying and sweating, and many with already empty travelling bag, ashamed in the face of the barrenness of the struggle they had undertaken. There they will hear My voice and, recognizing it, will cry out: "It is the Lord. And in this sentence they will reflect the humility with which they will finally seek me. For all will have to come with their own feet, without wagons, for with them they could not cross the desert, and without camels, for these have already perished of thirst on the long journey.

40. But that hour of infinite happiness, of reconciliation and humility, will also be of divine forgiveness for the "prodigal sons" who finally returned to the Father's house in longing for the loving poor of Him who gave them life and inheritance.

41. Receive today My word of love, forgiveness and justice, and show Me your heart. Do not try to hide your transgressions, for I know everything. You have vowed to love one another, but I am still waiting for your fulfillment. A single "tree" I have entrusted to you so that you tend it, but you offer me various fruits. I have prepared you humbly, devotedly, and obediently so that you serve your fellow men, but I do not find this seed in your works.

42. The son does not bow to his parents, the wife covets her husband, the brothers and sisters deny each other, all commit acts that reveal pride and vanity, all feel superior, while I continue to teach only love and peace to all men.

43. The nations have made peace, but their words show no love nor good intentions Behind that apparent peace there is resentment, the desire for revenge, and war in wait. Where is he who knows how to forgive, who has left his request to Me to judge?

44. The human heart has hardened and is not shaken by the pain of the children, the fear of the women, and the tragic fate of the young men and the young men who were chased without mercy into war But among them have been those who love Me and feel love for their fellow men, those who knew how to pray and did works of mercy. The visitation has been very hard for these nations, their pride has been chastised, they themselves are destroying their wealth. Only pain will bend them and bring them to their senses. I have been very close to every soul to strengthen them in the trial, and those who prepared themselves have felt My presence.

45. The effects of war have penetrated everywhere and have sown destruction From the small home to the great nations that have not watched, they have all fallen into their nets and do not know how to free themselves from this yoke.

46. I have taught you, I have given you the mystery of peace: love Me, love one another, inspire yourselves in Me, fulfil your duties, submit to your destiny and you will have peace and blessing

47. I have received the joyful song of those who, after the struggle, have returned to their home, to their homeland But I also receive the pain of mothers who did not experience the return of the son, of children who did not see the father, and of the woman who became a widow. I bless them all. Let Israel show compassion with those nations. And this prayer which you have sent up for the peace of the world, you shall also offer it further and make it like a song of protection for all nations.

48. You souls who have left your bodies on earth - attain enlightenment. I have received you. Trust in Me, and you will be led to true life. You did not die because the soul possesses eternal life. I invite you to true peace and justice. For I am life and offer you the bread of eternal life. But I see you hungry because you have not understood that the core of being is hidden in the depth of my word. If you look at it only superficially, you cannot feed on it. My love is contained in it, that divine essence, which is life, joy and peace for the Spirit.

49. While you are not studying My Word, there are many people in this and other nations who are expecting the Good News to fulfill My commissions. But the day will come when the good apostles will rise among you to go through countries and nations preaching My teaching. And I will speak through their minds as I did with those who followed me in the Second Age. Everyone who works in this way, be full of courage and trust in Me.

50. When you encounter obstacles, act as Moses did: command the elements to be your will, and they will willingly obey.

51. If ye would see wonders, prepare yourselves, but do not expect all to believe you. I have told you that in this time not all will believe in My word. Then leave the matter to me and go on. They will know Me when they are in the Spirit.

52. You are to respect ideas and feelings, but speak, as I have taught you, with this word that does not hurt, and take away the veils that hide My Light from souls

53. The time of awakening for each Spirit is marked I promise you that everyone who prepares himself will see Me in all My glory.

54. Ask, and it will be given to you. Everything that you desire in love for your fellow men - ask it of me. Pray, unite your request with that of the needy, and I will grant you what you ask for.

55. Ahe light of My Word will be the white clothing that covers you all

56. Out of love for you I have come in the "cloud", the symbol of the spiritual, to make Myself known to your Spirit But first this shining cloud had to settle down on the organ of the voice bearer's intellect, as a preparation for the time when you understand to hold dialogue with me directly and it is your Spirit on which the cloud descends and settles down.

57. I chose the cloud as symbol so that it would embody my coming to the world in the Third Age.

58. Is not the cloud the messenger that passes over mountains, valleys, and cities? Is it not she who makes the fields fertile with her rain and gives charitable shade? Does not the lightning that announces the thunderstorm break forth from it, and the sparkling ray that shakes? This is why I chose the cloud as symbol, this is why My apostles understood the meaning of My presence in the "cloud" when they saw Me in the Spirit for the last time, and Roque Rojas in this Third Age when I made him see the symbol which was the sign of My new coming.

59. Since then a gentle shadow has surrounded the people who have gradually gathered around My rallies My Word has been a fruitful rain on the parched fields of spiritualization and the ray that falls on the human organ of the mind at every rallies has torn the darkness of your sin and ignorance, has shaken you in all your fibres and has awakened your Spirit. How terrible has been for many of you the storm that was unleashed in your soul when you heard My Divine Word!

60. What majesty and what awe-inspiring beauty you have experienced in that storm of light that springs from My Word in the moments of its rallies! Overwhelmed by admiration, by awe and trembling, the crowds of people remain silent and let that storm of love, of justice and wisdom bathe and purify them.

61. O beloved people whom I have called Israel because I make you custodians of My messages and revelations - when will you learn to reproduce and interpret My Word correctly?

62. My promise to come again, which I gave in the second time, I have kept the apostles saw Me ascending from earth to infinity at Bethany and you have seen Me return from infinity to your hearts Do you not see in this too a resemblance to the clouds that rise and ascend from the sea to pour their beneficent rain on other places where the thirsty fields call for them?

63. Your pain has attracted Me, My Spirit has felt invoked by yours, and I have rushed in the cloud of Love and Justice to shower men with My Mercy

64. Not all nations call Me, and there are very few hearts that expect Me The spiritual cloud will come and like a cloak of peace will protect the peoples who pleadingly call on it and who expect it. All those who try to quench the thirst of the soul with the pleasures of the world, the cloud will surprise them with the brightness of its lightning, and the thunder of its thunderstorm will fill them with fear, for then they will remember that a Divine Justice exists and that every man is the bearer of a Spirit who must answer to God for all his works.

65. The cloud of love, light, mercy and justice is also an immeasurably great legion of Spirit beings, servants of Me, of Spirits of Light, who live to fulfill My purposes and multiply in the universe, performing their task of loving one another in perfect harmony. For that Divine Commandment, that Supreme Principle, which I revealed to the world in the Second Age, was not only meant for men - that maxim is the law that governs all existing spirits.

66. Beloved people: on this cloud of light, which is the spiritual great power of love and brotherhood between all the worlds, I came down in this Third Time by means of My Ray and brought you a new message of wisdom, an infinite consolation for your pain and a light to serve as a guide to find the forgotten way, so that when you have discovered it, you may come to Me - step by step, from merit to merit, consciously and steadfastly, striving for your spiritual perfection.

My peace be with you!
