Teaching 141:
1. People, I see your struggle and your efforts, I also see your patience in suffering, and the fulfilment of the lessons of My teaching The struggle is on all the ways that man has to go through. Understand that it is not only you who experience it. Now you must be strong more than ever. Watch and pray and be with Me at every dawn, and I will enlighten you in this moment so that My light will accompany you in all the works you do this day.
2. It does not matter if you have no words or ideas to formulate a prayer It is enough for me if you raise your thoughts to infinity, for I will understand to interpret the language of your heart.
3. You see the spiritual struggle of this time reflected in many homes: Married couples who do not share the same ideals. Some where it is the man who follows me, others where it is the woman who defies everything to follow me with faith, while the companion hurts them at every turn with his mockery and disbelief. Often, when they are together in their bedroom, their souls live apart. The attentions and tenderness of the past have given way to harsh words and hurtful expressions. Then the flame of faith that burns in the heart flickers, whipped by the storm of passions and troubled emotions.
4. There are families in which children - some as infants and others as teenagers - are impressed to be witnesses of this struggle between their parents, and they too feel that anxiety and doubt are rising in their hearts, and they ask themselves: Who am I to agree with? Who has the truth? Which of them shall I follow, and by what advice shall I be guided?
5. This struggle is bitter and painful, but it had to break out among you because you were not sufficiently prepared to understand My new teachings The same happened in the Second Age in the bosom of the families; for while some of the family members gave their lives to claim that Jesus Christ was the Messiah, others denied them all truth and ardently desired that His teaching be erased.
6. To you who listen to Me and have this battle in your homes, I tell you to take the light from My teaching so that you may have the necessary tact to act in a just way; that there should be charity in your heart; that intelligence and love should guide your actions in your homes; that you should be strengthened by My Word so that you may have patience in the severe trial that is your atonement
7. Do not be afraid; for if you fulfil your task in the way I am teaching you at present, you will experience miracles among yourselves, and at times the most rebellious, the most unbelieving will be the most ardent afterward I touch these hearts and grant them the proof, which they need to be able to believe.
8. Do not weep, people, get to the bottom of this trial with love, for the patience and faith with which you bear it will be your reward.
9. Finally, understand that you all love the same God, and do not quarrel because of the difference in the form in which one or another has realized this love. You must learn to understand that there are beings in which the beliefs, traditions and customs have taken such deep roots that it will not be easy for you to tear them out the first moment you teach them. Be patient, and over the years you will achieve it.
10. Some hear Me once, and from that moment on they surrender themselves to Me full of faith. On the other hand, there are others who, in their desire for My words, come to Me once or twice and many times, without succeeding in feeling that inner enlightenment. This is due to the fact that not all souls walk in step. For while some are already close to feeling me, others still have to develop further and become strong in the trials that purify the soul to understand my revelations.
11. Spiritualism provokes a worldwide battle among ideologies, creeds and religious cults. But after this battle, this teaching will bring blessed peace to men, which they need so much, and cause the sun of My divine justice to shine over all souls.
12. This epoch of light - for this has been My spiritual rallies - will pass unnoticed by many. Nevertheless, exceedingly clear signs and events will remain behind as an indelible trace, which mark two events that are significant for mankind: the beginning and the end of my rallies; so that men study, investigate and finally acknowledge that the Lord has been among them once more. I will prepare My children to form the book which will contain My teaching speeches and teachings and which will become a river of crystal clear water, a river of life, which will quench the thirst for spiritualization and the longing for light in this humanity.
13. Now that two ages have passed over you and the third is beginning, I come in Spirit in search of your fruit and in the silence of your hearts I hear you telling Me: "Father, how little of good we can show you and how little progress we have made on the way! - The time is already short in which I will continue to speak to you in this form, and you must hasten your steps and improve your works, for the religious communities are watching your example. The crowds are ready to follow you and emulate you, but you must bear witness with your works of love to find faith.
14. Study thoroughly My teachings and reflect on My decrees so that when the time comes, you may set out on the ways your mission shows you and you may lead out of their lethargy those who have stopped and at the same time save him who has gone astray at the crossroads I want you to know the path before you take it. Have I not told you that My word is the way? So listen to Me and study.
15. Let no one set out to determine the way according to his will, nor make laws, nor falsify My decrees, for he will go to ruin together with those he deceives
16. If you have the conviction and faith that you are the people of the Lord, who have long since crossed the desert of this life, do not forget the law for a moment, do not be unfaithful to your Father, nor lose the path that leads to the goal that your Spirit is striving for - that which you call "the Promised Land" and which is the place of perfect light where your Father awaits you
17. Who can say that he is weak when he receives My power at every moment? who can say that he is hungry when he has sat at My table so many times to eat the bread of true life? You all have an inheritance, gifts, and if you sometimes feel weak or poor, it is because your faith is still small. Your flesh is too stubborn to let all the good things that the soul possesses be known. How easily, on the other hand, does it allow the bad tendencies or unhealthy tendencies that the soul harbors to be reflected. Examine this in the young children who tear the veil of their innocence or who rebel in the face of good actions. Not all those who return to earth come purified. Some have to drink the bitterest chalices of suffering that life gives with its lessons, and endure the hardest trials, so that they bend, appease and convert.
18. The world will tremble with the light of My new revelations, and men will know the truth.
19. When I speak to you as Father, the book of the law opens before you. When I speak to you as Master, it is the book of love that I show to my disciples. When I speak to you as the HolySpirit, it is the book of wisdom that enlightens you with My teachings. These form one teaching because they come from one God.
20. The day is already near when this rallies will end. That is why I proclaim My Word in abundance so that the people will be strong and equipped.
21. All of you can say that you have seen Me in this time, some with the heart, some with the mind, and some with the Spirit. When you have refreshed yourselves by My divine teachings, you have seen Me; when you have experienced the fulfillment of one of My prophecies, you have seen Me, and when you feel in your being the presence of spiritual communications, you have seen Me. I have let myself be seen in various ways that you may bear witness to My coming in this Third Age. Did you think that the only way to see Me was through the eyes of your body? From a spiritual point of view, your material eyes are the most limited way to see Me. Did you think that it was essential to see Me as man, as the world saw Me in the Second Time, so that you might say "I have seen Him?" - No, disciples, the Spirit feels with greater perfection than the heart, the mind or the senses; and it is he who has understood Me. My word awakens some to the truth, and makes others rise to true life; for materialism is death.
22. The book of knowledge opens to reveal to you how many spiritual gifts and qualities you possess, many of which are still unknown to you.
23. You know that I will give you one more of My teachings to send you out to bring the Good News to men. Do you expect to be admitted into the heart of one of your brothers and sisters without knowing what the heart is and what Spirit is? How much time has passed since you received your inheritance from the Father, and still you do not know what your Spirit possesses. But at last the age of spiritualization has come for mankind. All that is unknown will be known, that which is hidden will come to light, and every mystery will be solved, because the Spirit of Truth pours out upon every spirit and upon all flesh.
24. When men learn spiritually who they are, and they know their origin, they will not have enough tears to weep for the errors which their stubbornness out of ignorance and pride made them commit. But after the purification my cloak of forgiveness will cover the world, and a new age will begin. Do you not believe, when there will be light in the lives of men and their conscience will enlighten them, that there will be a change in their lives? Yes, because the tribulations, the wars - everything that grieves some and ruins others is due to lack of spiritual light, which you can call conscience, justice, love.
25. O people, the day is already drawing near when I no longer speak to you in this form. Use my teachings so that you can withstand the whirlwinds that threaten you. People will come to you to demand proofs from you that you have spoken with Jesus and that you have received His teachings from Him.
26. You are leafing through the book of My teachings, in which the Law, the prophets and My Word given at all times are written down, all will finally be imprinted in your Spirit This is the inheritance I am leaving you. Examine, test and study my work, examine it thoroughly. When you have discovered and recognized its essence, you will feel infinitely loved by the Father, and you will also love Me.
27. If your fellow men speak contemptuously of you because you have followed my call, close your ears and be silent; they are ignorant. But if you should take this matter as an occasion to judge them, woe betide yourselves, for you are already enlightened by the light of your conscience and know what you are doing.
28. I am the Judge of every Spirit and know who loves me in truth. Not everyone who calls me Father is with me. Many of those who claim that they are My chosen ones and that they serve Me have not understood Me. You can fool each other - but who could deceive me?
29. I have taught you equality, love, humility. Even if your fate seems to be different - the final goal, which I have shown to all, is the same.
30. Let your conscience guide you; it will always speak to you with justice, and you will know whether you live within My law, whether you have done deeds worthy of offering them to your Father I love the pure, and if you want to please Me, be pure.
31. A time will come when the world will bring you in distress, it will demand powerful works from you, speaking of your great spiritual gifts, and if you are not equipped for it, many will deny Me as Father, saying that they have never heard Me, that they did not know Me; but you know that My Word has been your food and your consolation for a long time
32. What have you asked Me for that I would not have granted you? I have given you many proofs of love to strengthen your faith. Blessed are the meek and humble who know how to accept the trials of life with submission, without despair.
33. Fathom My word, feel it and put it into practice so that your faith may be strengthened daily.
34. Today you open the doors of your heart and mind to the light of My teaching. With what works will you glorify Me? All of you are silent; the Spirit and also the body are silent before Me. You bow your necks and humble yourselves. But I do not want my children to humble themselves before me. I want them to be worthy to lift up their faces and see what is mine, because I do not come in search of neither servants nor slaves; I do not seek creatures who feel themselves to be outlaws, outcast. I come to my children whom I love so much so that they, when they hear my father's voice, lift their soul on the path to their spiritual upward development.
35. But behold, I come to the house of Jacob and find only fear in him; I hope to find a feast, and there is only silence. Why, My people? Because your conscience reproaches you for your wrongdoing and prevents you from feeling joy at my coming. The reason is that you have not loved each other, that you have not worked as Jesus taught you.
36. You have lacked spiritual armament to sense the shadow of pain that is lying in wait for you, and so it is necessary that your Father make himself materially audible and speak to you in your language so that you may experience that the angel of war is drawing near, that his weapons are very powerful, and that the angel of peace is sobbing to him
37. Riding on the wings of the wind, the pestilence is drawing nearer and nearer, and in the spiritual space there are thousands of beings floating, falling day by day in the fields of hatred and discord, whose distraction darkens your mind and heart.
38. The forces of nature are unleashed, tearing scientists from their dreams; but these - obstinate in their self-importance - continue to do their destructive work among mankind. While you forget to pray, you do not fulfill the task which the Father has entrusted to you.
39. You know very well that the task of making peace has been on your Spirit since those times when I told Jacob, "Behold, I will give you a multitude of offspring through whom all the peoples of the earth shall be blessed. Therefore you are silent before Me.
40. Will you wait until the laws of men disown you and force you to close your lips, whom I have trained to bear witness to Me?
41. Be not men of little faith. If I have chosen you, it is because I know that you will be able to serve Me and understand how to do it.
42. On this day I tell you: If the nations want peace, I make it attainable according to their love. If they want more war, let them have it; but through it the scepter of My righteousness will fall to the earth.
43. If mankind should persecute My new disciples and try to prevent them from healing the sick and speaking of My teaching, the strangest diseases will spread among men Scientists will fall ill, the eyes of many will be closed, others will suffer confusion of thought.
44. The gates of the hereafter will open, and legions of confused souls will devastate whole regions and make men possessed. Then, in the face of the impotence of science, my humble workers will set out and give proofs of their knowledge, through which many will become believers. For a long time already all this disaster was announced to you; nevertheless you remain deaf and blind. You are ungrateful.
45. Sometimes it is necessary that I speak to you in this way. But do not confuse my word of love with a whip. I love you. Come near so that you may feel My warmth. Come near Me so that you may feel the peace of My Kingdom. You are the ones who have sought Me during the crossing of the "desert", you are the ones who have always chased after My promise.
46. Have you become tired of this life? Then rest for a moment in the shade of this tree. Tell Me here your worries and weep at My breast. When will you be with Me forever? I want to see peace already in every soul.
47. Let "the lark" now spread its wings over the whole universe so that you may feel its peace and warmth
48. Women, it is you who, with your prayer, maintain the little peace that exists on earth, those who, as faithful guardians of the home, make sure that it does not lack the warmth of love. Thus you unite yourselves with Mary, your Mother, to break the human arrogance.
4. Men, I have made you lords on this earth so that you represent Me on it. Your Spirit is like the Father's, and your body is like the universe. Judge the perfection of your body not by its measures, but by the wonderful life that exists in it, its order and harmony. But even with the greatest perfection, the body is limited, and the time comes when it stops growing. But the intelligence and the sensations continue to develop until death stops it. But all the wisdom and experience he acquired on earth remain imprinted in the soul, which grows and unfolds for all eternity.
50. Make your home a second temple, your affections a second worship of God. If you want to love Me, love your wives and love your children, for great works, thoughts, and examples will also spring from this temple.
51. All of you are at this time sheep of Elijah. Some live in his hurdle, others are still lost. The light of the sixth seal illuminates in this time all souls incarnated and no longer incarnated. While on earth some use this law for the progress and salvation of their soul, others use it to penetrate the mysteries of science and discover new wonders. It is the profane and disobedient hands that still break the fruit from the tree of science to poison the heart of man. You are living in the sixth period of time, which mankind will travel on earth as an image of the path it must follow in eternity.
52. I tell you at this moment in the presence of Elijah that you are living in the sixth epoch of time which humanity will pass through on earth, as a symbol of one of the seven ladders which your Spirit will climb up in the hereafter.
53. In the first epoch Abel embodied Me on earth, in the second Noah, in the third Jacob, Moses in the fourth, Jesus in the fifth, in the sixth, the present one, Elijah, and in the seventh the HolySpirit will reign.
54. What have you done with My messengers? The first fell under the stroke of his own brother, whom envy drove to it. The second was misjudged and mocked by multitudes of unbelievers and idolaters.
55. The third gave proofs of My power in his life, and received ingratitude for it, even of his kinsmen.
56. The fourth had to break the tables of the law because of the low faith of his people, whom he loved so much.
57. The fifth, although his coming was foretold, was not expected, found no faith nor love, and having given His message of love to the world, He received from men the most ignominious death that any prophet or messenger ever suffered.
58. The sixth has come in this time in the Spirit. Yet the arrows of doubt, indifference, and mockery still haunt him.
59. When the seventh seal is broken and instead of a messenger it is the Spirit of the Eternal Himself who enlightens men - who then will try to wound or kill Me?
60. I speak to you in this way so that you may not be confused tomorrow by theologians.
61. Every seal has had its shine in its time and has left its light in the Spirit of my children. So also in the sixth seal the voice of the word could be heard on earth.
62. People, pray to Mary, she is the Divine Tenderness, made woman in the Second Time - purity not understood by materialized humanity, virginity that cannot be fathomed by the mind of men and can only be felt by those whose sensations are purified.
63. The mantle of your Heavenly Mother has given shadow to the world from eternity and lovingly protects My children who are of Her. Mary, as Spirit, was not born in the world; her maternal core has always been a part of Me.
64. She is the wife of My purity, My holiness She is My daughter when she became a woman, and My mother when she received the "Word incarnate.
65. The Master tells you: You have occupied yourselves much with yourselves and therefore you have forgotten the others. It is necessary to leave your indifference to foreign pain and foreign needs and to let go of your selfishness.
66. When pain shows itself in your way, be ready to accept it. If you see the trial very close, pray as Jesus did in the garden on the eve of His death, and say as He did: "My Father, if it is possible, remove this cup from Me, but Your will be done, and not Mine. - Watch, My children, for when you prepare yourselves, I will in many cases remove the cup of suffering from your lips. But if it should be necessary for you to drink it, I will give you - on the basis of your devotion and submission to the will of God - power to persevere.
67. Do not forget that pain is purifying, and that if it is endured with love and spiritual upliftment, it not only washes away your own stains, but also those of others.
68. Leave your pain to Me, and it will not be barren. How much useless pain has there been among mankind! But he who was able to suffer and bear his cross until the end of his reparation has reached the height of the mountain when he thought he would fall forever.
69. In the trials the world has not obtained the peace it should receive through your prayers and merits. For when you are subjected to these trials, you think only of yourselves, pitying yourselves and rebelling, instead of praying to the Father and saying to Him, "If any one of my neighbors gains an atom of peace through the bitter cup that I drink - with what satisfaction I will drink it to the last drop! And the Master tells you The one who prays and feels in this way will achieve that his love can do good to many of his fellow men.
70. People, an apparent peace now prevails in the nations, but you shall not proclaim that peace has come. Close your lips. True peace cannot be built on foundations of fear or material comfort. Peace must come from love, from brotherhood.
71. People are currently building on sand and not on rock, and when the waves foam up again and beat against those walls, the building will collapse
72. Through their conscience I have proposed My peace to men, telling them: here am I, but they have not listened to Me At times they act like little children and like fools. I tell you that they act like children because in their actions they do not reveal the light that the Spirit has gained during a long period of development. Although they live in the Third Age, they have not yet become aware of what peace means. Their Spirit is sluggish, and even more so it is their heart that does not feel what true mercy is, nor has it beaten in love for men. But an even more bitter pain than wormwood will seize them, through which they will awaken and become more sensitive. It will not be I who hands this cup to men, because in me that bitterness cannot exist.
73. All pain caused by men will be summarized in one single cup, which will be drunk by those who caused it. And those who never allowed themselves to be shaken in the face of pain will now tremble in their spirit and in their body.
74. The hour is drawing near in which you will see the nations shaken by strange and surprising events. You will learn about people who were great in the world and who will leave their peoples and nations to seek peace with their conscience in the wilderness, in solitude. Others who have been known for their hatred and their desire for power will surprise the world because their mouth will suddenly speak words of love and peace. The reason is because My Light will envelop them and My Spirit will speak through their lips.
75. Are you prepared for these events to find the right solution and explanation to the questions and to bring light to the distraught or confused minds of men?
76. I have been training you for a long time and still you cannot be the soldiers of peace Look at the nations, how little time is enough for them to prepare for war, and how they are shaking even the interior of the earth. See how the forces of their hatred make their influence felt even to the most distant places, while you are not able to make them feel My Peace.
77. Is hatred stronger than love? Is darkness more powerful than light? Does evil have a greater effect than good? - no, My children
78. I am not rebuking you, I am only lovingly awakening you to tell you that it is not difficult to work in the vineyard of Jesus and that you should persevere in your improvement. If for moments you carry within you the resolution to renew yourselves, your Spirit rejoices and feels closer to His Father. But temptations lie in wait for your steps and bring you down.
79. Rise up definitively, realizing that you are living through a time different from the first and second, in which the material and spiritual elements are everywhere in agitation. It is a battle that is visible only to those who are spiritually prepared and invisible to those who are not. Millions of human and spiritual beings are moving in this whirlwind, some igniting light, others seeking it; some spreading darkness, others fleeing from it.
80. Woe to him who becomes weak in his search for the light in this time! Millions of invisible eyes are watching you to bring you down. I want you to be the good seed that conquers the fields where the weeds have grown. Like a sea that overflows its banks, evil penetrates forward and confuses one heart after another, its unclean waters overflowing homes, the heart of children, the mind of youth, the purest feelings of woman. Your noblest institutions are degraded, as is the most sacred. What are you doing during this time? Are you also among the blind who notice nothing? Do you shut yourselves off in your selfishness to seek a little peace for your heart? Do you shut yourselves in the four walls of your bedroom to prevent the noise of war and the lamentations of men from reaching that point?
81. Do not say that the Master did not speak prophetically to you when you now see the time coming which I announce to you But before there will be peace among men, fire will burn the weeds on the whole surface of the earth, the unleashed waters will wash them clean, and the snow will purify them.
82. Wake up, disciples; be prepared that you will not be taken by surprise, for you will be fought against with words, with deeds, and by books. Weapons and slander will be prepared against you. Also you will be witnesses of a battle of ideologies, teachings and theories. The theologians will try to explore more than they have explored so far. The philosophers will put new ideas into the world. The scientists will proclaim their knowledge as the only truth. The fanatics of the religions will appear as parties and will clash.
83. This will be the time for which you must be prepared, for your voice will be the only one that is heard as calm and conscious.
84. Do you now realize how much I am complaining to you? Do you now see how small you are and how many blemishes and imperfections you still have? And yet you will serve Me, and your offering will be pleasing and fragrant before My divinity.
85. The tabernacle, the ark of the covenant and the law are in your heart. To you who are humble, I will reveal what the learned cannot grasp.
86. People, in this time you will return to the Father's house like the Prodigal Son I received you and said to you: You are the firstborn, but in your absence the other brethren scattered. I remained alone and wept in My solitude. Now you have returned, and I say to you: sit at My table, there are loaves, fruits and wine. In the next room are the tools. You then wept for your ingratitude and disobedience and realized that you were pariahs among the other peoples who did not receive what you received. You asked that your spiritual gifts be returned to you, and your wealth was returned to you.
87. I have made you realize that you bear great responsibility in the discord of mankind. Then I have entrusted to you a sword of love so that with it you make docile those who cause fratricidal wars and bring them into My presence.
88. Your mission is that of peace, brotherhood and spiritualization I do not reproach your heart because of his present works, but remind your Spirit of his past and make him understand the sublime mission that awaits him in eternity.
My peace be with you!
