Teaching 142:
1. My love descends upon you to demand from you the fulfillment of the commandments which I have taught you during your existence. I see that you are full of grace, anointed and prepared for the fulfillment of your mission, and I want to reap the fruits of the seeds I have given you. I will rejoice in your humility and good will. If I have offered you that the world will be full of grace and blessings through your intercession, it is because I have given you authority to see your good works multiply beyond this earth. Through your intercession the needy souls will obtain light. For, verily, I tell you, not only this world is going through an epoch of difficulties and trials for its purification, but also in other spheres there is atonement and pain.
2. Make My teaching your own, feel My Word; as it is gentle and loving, so it is severe You shall understand and fathom it! Do not allow this seed to be carried away by the wind without taking root in your heart, for tomorrow you will miss it. What are you waiting for to adjust your life in the exercise of My laws? Do not wait until the trials afflict you, for this would be very painful for you. Do it out of love and conviction, fulfill the commandment that tells you: Love one another.
3. Use this time in which I speak to you with the greatest clarity and allow me to guide you. Remember that your future will be peaceful if you obey my law.
4. Turn within you, examine yourselves in the light of your conscience and you will see that I speak to you with righteousness, that I do not spread terror but that I warn you so that you live vigilantly
5. My word is food for the Spirit. At all times I have spoken to you. In the present time I have left this message for mankind, serving Myself through yourselves. I watch over the world while it sleeps. I appeared with you and just as I rose up before My disciples in the Second Time days after My resurrection and they saw Me parting in the Spirit, so I come to you now in glory to judge all beings.
6. Today My Light is spreading over all mankind. From nations and provinces, your fellow men will come to this land in search of My Word when they have knowledge of these teachings. at that time I will no longer manifest Myself through the human organ of the mind as I do today and you, the believers, will get used to raise your Spirit to have fellowship with Me and you will show My printed Word to all and bear witness to what you have received in My teachings You will tell them that I did not become man, but that I came in the Spirit, and that in this form I have remained eternally among you.
7. Today, as you remember My Passion, I tell you that I have gone to Calvary once more, that My Passion is renewed in every moment, that war, sin and materialism form a cross of insult to your God You who have understood My Word, unite with Me in a great struggle against sin. The spiritual hosts have begun their battle, you shall join them.
8. The visitations will shake up the world. The good news will reach everyone and they will know that I have come to leave another testament and judge their works.
9. I do not want you, My listeners, to shed tears later because you have not understood My divine rallies. Pray and in your prayer you will receive the light to enter into this new revelation I am giving you at this time.
10. I grant you the gift of peace. If you remain prepared, you will spread it with your thoughts and works. These precious times, when you come together to lift up your Spirit and dwell in the spiritual regions from where you hold dialogue with Me, will not return. Neither will you hear My word through human mediation after the time indicated by Me.
11. Watch and pray, and you will see my word come true.
12. I give you a new lesson. Each of these is to prepare you for the completion of your task. You are beginning to understand that you have not come to earth only to preserve your body shell, to accumulate riches or to gain honors. You do not suffer hardship on the path of life. If you have thought yourselves poor, it is only because you have not tried to recognize what you carry in your Spirit. Is it necessary, then, that you lose everything you possess so that you may learn to appreciate what you possessed? No, My children, it is better that today, while you still possess your gifts, you should have knowledge of them so that you may use them for the good of your Spirit.
13. If My teaching seems strange to you, I tell you that you are the strange ones, for both I and My Law are immutable and eternal Every time I come to you, I find you more distant, more spotted, and therefore more straying from the right way. Does the form appear new to you, in which I now make myself known to you? It is not new. Do you want, then, that my voice should be audible without the mediation of men in infinity? This form would not be new either. Already in the First Time I let My Voice be heard by the people gathered at the foot of Sinai. But what happened to that people when they heard the voice of their father in this way? Their ears, their hearts, and their minds were unable to receive that manifestation of power to such an extent that they had to cover their ears in order not to hear, and they asked Moses to convey to Jehovah that He would stop speaking, for His voice was like thunder. My voice then descended from My Spirit upon your matter, while I am now equipping you to rise up to where My Father's love awaits you and you hear Me from spirit to spirit.
14. Although I have revealed Myself with full clarity at all times, man has doubted because of his materialism. Even there at Sinai, in the sublime proofs and manifestations that the Lord gave to the people, those hearts doubted, wavered and were ready at every step to turn their backs on the Father. With every faint-heartedness of the people, the mercy of the Lord showed itself, and in the end only His truth shone.
15. When I speak to you about My manifestation as man, I must tell you that although it was announced long time before, the world was asleep and could not recognize Me. From the time Jesus opened His eyes in this world until the moment He closed them hanging on the cross, My Heart was wounded by men's doubt throughout its journey of life.
16. They doubted the divinity of Jesus because they judged Him according to His humility, the meagerness of His clothing and the lack of material power and treasures of the earth And still in the throes of death, the doubt of those people pierced into the heart of Jesus as if every one of their questions were spears: "How is it possible that His body bleeds, if He is God? "How is it possible for the Son of God to die?"
17. Two thousand years have passed for some to understand these lessons, and many more must pass for all to understand them.
18. If anyone today should say that I have come by surprise, he is not telling the truth, because I announced to you My return and foretold you the signs I would give you But if you were asleep when I gave you the signs - how could you have noticed them then?
19. Just as in the Second Age My Presence was not in the same way as in the First, so also in this era My revelation is different, although it is always the same teaching I have always announced My coming centuries in advance to meet you prepared, so that your house would not be found in disorder and you would be ashamed with My visit. I wanted you to have everything ready at My coming, so that when you knock at your door you might tell Me, like the virgins of My parable, "Enter, Master, be welcome in your home. But it was your doubt that received Me - doubt about the form of My revelations and My rallies, doubt about the miracles I grant you, which you ascribe to evil powers, doubt about the poverty and humility of My new servants and the places where I reveal Myself. But I know that after the end of My rallies, faith will come and the understanding of them, just as it happened in past times, despite your coldness, your doubt and your materialism.
20. I come to you because I love you, because I knew that in the time of My new manifestation I would find you like a flock without a shepherd, like sick people without a doctor and like students without a teacher. I come to prepare a certain number of mankind to sow the good seed in the new fields, for you have entered a new age, that of spiritualization.
21. From now until 1950, use My Word that pours out like a waterfall from the heavens on your hearts. Save it so that you can pass it on in abundance after My parting. Strengthen yourselves in My teaching so that your soul will not waver. Remember that some will have to stand trial for this teaching. You will limit yourselves to saying with complete truthfulness what I have taught you. After 1950 your memory will clear and remember My teachings, but you will also receive new and unknown teachings by revelation.
22. Someone is telling Me at this moment from the bottom of his heart: "Lord, why don't you perform on my path of life those miracles you did in the days when I began to follow you, when I am now more prepared and have more faith? - The reason for this is that you have not been able to observe. Even today I do not do the miracles I performed in the First Time. That time was the time of your awakening to the life of the Spirit. It was a time of proofs and material miracles. Today is a time of spiritual miracles. How could it be possible that your Spirit would always remain at the same level and that I would repeat the same lesson to you?
23. When you came in My presence to hear My Word, I did surprising miracles to revive your faith Why today, when you already have this light, do you demand what is appropriate only for the weak? Now it is your turn to do to your fellow men what I have done to you.
24. Today I am teaching you My Law and I say to you: My Peace be with you and purity in your thoughts, so that you may pay attention to what "The Word" tells you on this day Peace I bring to the people who make atonement on earth - with love to some, with pain to others. I reveal before your eyes those blemishes of the soul that your heart does not know, so that you patiently wash them away. I also let you feel the great responsibility, which you have taken over towards my work.
25. In humble and simple but zealous hands I have laid My work in the Third Age so that you may honour and glorify it through your works.
26. I give you My word in the intimacy of these houses which I call "places of assembly" and not "temples", so that they may not be confused with those where ceremonies and rites exist You know that through this My teaching I am building the true temple of the Living God within your heart. Every church of those who gather in the places of assembly will rise spiritually according to their love, obedience and good will in following My instructions.
27. It is My will that you all work for the sublimity of My work, because there are near times of great importance for your Spirit They are those in whom my light from infinity, which has become voice and thought, penetrates into your Spirit, in the highest connection you can attain. You cannot say that at this time the Spirit of the Lord has entered the brain of the voice bearer, for a human being is not capable of harboring what is highest potency. It has been a ray of Divine Light that has descended upon the mind of the one destined for the transmission of My teaching. In this way truth flows over these ignorant lips, and this will be the beginning of the destruction of idolatry and religious fanaticism.
28. These men have the supreme grace to serve as the seat or base of the Divine Ray, and their brains and lips as the transmitters of the Word, and yet they shall continue to be simple men like the rest.
29. Tomorrow these places of assembly will multiply, and the multitudes will be united in them to hear the rallies from Spirit to Spirit of the Lord to His servants, without anyone trying to distinguish those who serve the Lord as instruments. I want simplicity in all your works. I like those who are humble of heart. Remember that I was born in a stable, among shepherds, because in them I found the sincerity to feel and believe in Me. None of you has yet had a manger to the cradle, but with your king it had to happen to give you an example of humility.
30. Why do I come again to men after having given them those lessons of Eternal Life? Because men have made rites out of each of My lessons. Feel Me, and do not try to present Me in this or that form, for any of them will remove you from the Truth. As the Eternal Father, do not try to present me as an old man, like the one you paint, because neither time nor struggle leave traces in the Spirit of the Creator, since I am above time and am not subject to it as you are.
31. My word will again be uncomfortable to men as in past times, but I will tell them the truth. Without exposing anyone, I called the hypocrite hypocrite, the adulterer adulterer and evil the wicked. The truth has been distorted, and it was necessary that it should shine again, as now, when the truth has been concealed, and therefore it must again appear before the eyes of men. What am I teaching you now? - To bless with heart and Spirit everything and all, for he who so blesses is like his Father when he gives his warmth to all. That is why I say to you: Learn to bless with Spirit, with the thought, with the heart, and your peace, your strength and your warmth of heart will reach the one to whom you send it, no matter how far you think you are from him. What would happen if all men blessed each other, even if they did not know each other and never saw each other? That perfect peace would reign on earth, that war would be unimaginable. For this miracle to become reality, you must direct your Spirit upward through perseverance in virtue. Do you think this is impossible?
32. How many converted sinners have reached the degree you call holiness! They were not originally better than you, but you have not yet reached that degree of perfection. You begin to love, the gift of intuition begins to bear fruit, and already you have inspiration, because when I touch you, you respond. Not all doors respond to My knocking, but those that open let My light come to you. The transformation of the sinner is not impossible. Remember some names from the Second Age: Magdalene, Paul, Augustine, Francis of Assisi. Why should you remember only those of the First Time?
33. These mentioned by Me knew sin and even the mud of passions, but now they shine as lights in heaven and as enlighteners of men they send their light to you.
34. Only I can reveal the unknown to you So I can tell you that the people of today try in vain to get to know the youth of Jesus on earth. They research and make up their minds, but they know only my childhood and the time of my preaching. To you I say: Jesus, before He set out to proclaim the Kingdom of Heaven, learned nothing from men. What did He have to learn from them, who already in his childhood confused the teachers of the law? That time, of which men know nothing, was only a time of waiting.
35. If you learn from Me with love in your hearts, it is impossible for you to err.
36. So I prepare you. Today some come, and through them others come, and through those others approach. Every day and every generation will feel Me closer because their spiritualization will be greater.
37. Show mercy daily; this will be the best elevation to me. Give, help, comfort; this will be the best daily prayer, because you will then speak to the Father with works, not with words, which - even if they are already in their form - are empty at their core.
38. Pray to Me with your thoughts. You do not need a particular place to do it, and the attitude of your body is indifferent. Lift up your thoughts in peace to the heights of heaven and then await My inspiration.
39. What I will tell you on this day, not even the prophets know I alone in My High Councils can reveal it to you. Fear not to know the intimate counsel of your Father. Be happy in the knowledge that I, as Master, will always reveal new lessons to you. How can you think that I want to hide something from you, only with the intention that you do not know? I love you, and no selfishness can exist in My Father Heart. When I come near you, it is to enlighten your Spirit so that He may understand and love Me.
40. I have come to you in Spirit, but not all have believed in Me, not all have felt Me. Many have denied Me, and others more will deny Me. If I were to reveal myself in a thousand different forms to those who deny me, they would not recognize me in any of them, for the form in which they have imagined me leaves them in error.
41. Never have I hidden myself behind a mask when I showed myself to the world; but I have limited myself in my power to be seen, heard, and understood by men.
42. Why do you not progress on the way of your spiritual development? Shall I show myself according to your backwardness? If you were prepared and I would manifest myself in a stone to speak to you through it, I would even be recognized by you in this form. Those who know my essence can feel me everywhere. Those, on the other hand, who have made a false picture of my divinity, would not be able to recognize me and would even deny me, even if they saw me in all my glory.
43. What is strange about the fact that I make myself known through the organ of a man's mind? I do not hide myself in this, I am present. Whoever wants to have a proof of this is to cleanse his heart as well as his mind, then he will see the truth with his spiritual eyes.
44. No one but man can reflect the Divine Spirit. Man's mind is the mirror of Divine Reason. His heart is the source in which I keep love. His conscience is light from my Spirit. If you doubt that you possess such great gifts and you do not feel worthy of them, this is not your father's fault, but yours, because you have not yet grasped the infinite love I have for you. See that your stains of shame have not been an obstacle to reveal me among you in this form. But if tomorrow the scientists will judge these rallies as bad, it will not be I whom they will judge, but they themselves.
45. I have created man with such perfection that, when he looks at himself, he can see a reflection of what his Father is. But man did not know how to look at himself, nor to penetrate into his inner being; that is why he did not recognize me.
46. In the different ages I have made myself known to men in an unexpected way. Who would have told you that the promised Messiah, the Son of God, in the Second Age would not even have a humble home to be born in? Who would have told you that Mary, the carpenter's wife, would be the mother of Jesus?
47. From the beginning of My first steps on earth I gave signs of My power, and yet I was not even suspected by many.
48. I have not come at this time to surprise you; I have not come at this time to surprise you If you had prepared yourselves by passing on the promise of My return from parents to children, from generation to generation, I would have met you in expectation of My coming; but no one was expecting Me. Some of you had forgotten these prophecies, others did not know them because they were kept secret. How few of you searched the firmament and observed world events in search of the signs that would announce the time of My coming.
49. Nevertheless, those who expected My return as a spirit of consolation feel that the time has arrived, and that Christ has come to mankind spiritually Others have heard the rumors of My coming and have not believed.
50. Jesus told His disciples, "Only for a time will I be absent from you. I will come again." Then it was revealed to them that the Master would come to earth "on the cloud", surrounded by angels, sending rays of light to the earth.
51. Look, here I am "on the cloud", surrounded by angels, who are the spiritual beings who have manifested themselves among you as messengers of My divinity and as your good advisers. The rays of light are my word, which brings you my revelations and which floods every mind with wisdom.
52. Blessed are those who believed without seeing, for it is they who feel My presence.
53. Watch, for this is the time when temptation fights tirelessly to defeat you It suspects that the time is drawing near when it will be bound. It has thousands of malice to separate you from me. But you must pray and watch, so that the way is revealed to you to avoid every ambush. I have taught you to recognize the true taste of the divine fruit, which is the meaning of My work. I have taught you the way of virtue and the fulfillment of your spiritual and human duties. This is the way. How could you go astray?
54. Do not flee from the trials, learn to confront them. It will not be enough to close your door to be safe. When the door is closed, danger will enter. Do not be tempted by the lower passions.
55. Prepare yourselves, for you will be fought by theories on which they are working. Be alert, for false prophets will appear. Do not sleep in the belief that you have won the battle without having yet passed the first test.
56. Fear not the battle, watch, and you will be victorious. Spirit is invulnerable, every other weapon is fragile. Therefore fight with the Spirit; your sight is always to see with clarity, and your opponent will be exposed to you because anger will blind him because he does not know spiritualization.
57. I do not want any priests or ministers of spiritualism. I simply want apostles. I do not want you to tell the world that you will be masters. No, be My good disciples, and through your mediation I will give great teachings.
58. When you arm yourselves, this time of struggle will be of rest instead of pain, because in it you will experience signs and wonders.
59. My word has resounded in the heavens and its echo has been heard on your earth
60. I receive you on this day of grace. You are the disciples of Jesus, always the little ones in view of the greatness of My teaching. I fan the light of your lamp and remove the thorns you yourselves have cultivated so that your feet bleed. Receive the healing balm that heals all wounds, and through it stop suffering.
61. Listen to Me and then fathom My Word which I am giving you in all simplicity but with a deep meaning; in it you will find My teaching which is all love and justice
62. I have given myself to you when I sent you My Divine Radiance I have revealed My Spirit of Consolation to you, but you have not yet been able to understand the meaning of this rallies and by doing so you have prevented it from being even clearer, for when you judge your brothers and sisters badly, you provoke disunity and hinder or close the way of transmission through which you receive My messages. Since there is neither unity nor love among My people, you have gone away from the fountain of grace. For you cannot assure me that you love me if you do not do it with your fellow men.
63. My laws are just, and disobedience to one of them is enough for the world to lose its peace. My laws are greater and much more delicate than you have assumed. Therefore, the works which men have done since the beginning of mankind are still working and spreading like an undertow that reaches you.
64. The nations are nothing more than demarcations made by men. The peoples, the religions, the large or small groups are outside of My laws because they do not recognize each other, they judge the foreign actions that are not theirs to judge. Each of them has much to improve in itself, as much or more than what it finds wrong with its neighbor.
65. Men speak of laws, but they do not carry them in their hearts, they do not feel them, nor do they obey them. The time of awakening has come for the Spirit. I am about to cut hearts that are like rocks, for they do not shine as they should - namely, like jewels much loved by their Creator. How few are those who are of real value, but my patience is immeasurable. I am the Master who teaches, polishes and perfects your soul eternally.
66. Do not take man as a model of perfection, seek the Father as a model, without becoming discouraged when you experience that one of your brothers commits an evil deed Do not allow your faith to become weak, for all of you will once fall and rise again on the long path of atonement; sometimes it is even necessary for you to begin the way again. Rise and grasp the will to live in me. If you lack the strength to take up the struggle for life, take it from Me and lean on your Father.
67. Why have you allowed the fountain of love that I have put in you to dry up? do you not know that love is life and salvation? speak with words of love, spread My commandments and feel My power because you are to know that I have come to give all My faculties to the Spirit and the more you work the stronger you will be
68. I have come to teach you, and I also want to improve you Know yourselves by penetrating into your inner being. Do not be deceived into believing that you have made great progress unless you first learn to forgive and love. You must be sincere and practice humility, only then can you feel yourselves to be the master of your spiritual gifts, able to do great works and go everywhere. Then there will be no obstacle that can stop you, and all danger will disappear. You will be able to descend into darkness and you will not get into confusion; on the contrary, you will then be able to shine in brighter light and save those who dwell there.
69. From the beginning of time I have made known to you these commandments: "You shall love God with all your heart and with all your soul" and "Love your neighbor as yourself. - The observance of these laws, which in their duality form one, would fill this world with joy, peace and happiness. When you find out that man has suffered and lost his direction because of not following these laws, you will feel encouraged to begin a new life, and you will realize that there is much to do in your inner world and also among your fellow men.
70. Love is able to ignite faith in a single moment, to unite men, to awaken in them many abilities that are still slumbering today, to give new light to the eyes of the Body and the Spirit If you have love in your heart, you have heaven in you.
71. When the world once loves, peace will descend upon it, My Kingdom and My Presence will be in every Spirit, and you will be prepared to enjoy the spiritual life in which you will attain perfect happiness
72. How many times will you have to come back to earth to have a body through which the message you bring to the world is revealed with ever greater clarity? Allow your soul, like a lark, to experience and enjoy its springtime in this life, and to find in its pilgrimage the necessary experience to return to Me. While the rich are accumulating treasures that are all too perishable, you are to gain experience, true knowledge.
73. I want you to create homes that believe in the Only God - homes that are temples where love, patience and self-denial are practiced. In them you are to be teachers of children, whom you are to surround with tenderness and understanding, over whom you are to watch, following all their steps with compassion. Pour your love both on those who are endowed with beauty and on those who are seemingly ugly. A beautiful face is not always the reflection of an equally beautiful soul. On the other hand, behind those creatures of apparent ugliness there may be hidden a soul full of virtue, which you should cherish.
74. Pray with humility and allow My will to be done on you, for what you ask is not always the just, the noble and the good. Then I will give you what is good for you so that you may have a peaceful and happy life.
My peace be with you.
