Teaching 149:

1. Here again is the Master who gives you His teaching on your consciousness.

2. My love becomes the word of light among the people of this time, when the world needs the freedom of the Spirit to receive my teachings that show you the way to salvation. But I do not come as man in this time; I come to each of you in spirit and call all mankind to recognize the greatness of the spiritual teachings of the Third Age. It is my will to enlighten the Spirit of the people of this epoch through the virtue of my disciples. Morality has disappeared from the hearts of men; few are those who remain in my law, and also few who know how to unite with their Creator, and this because of the corruption and spiritual ignorance that prevails among men.

3. No one expects or seeks me in the form of a man, as I came in the Second Age. Nor does anyone seek me through pictorial works, made by human hands.

4. The testimony of the Third Age will not be the only one that speaks to you of my love for humanity - it will be the deeds and words of the three times in which the Father revealed Himself to man.

5. I have called those "initiates" who are the first to begin to acquire the knowledge of my teachings. I have revealed to them the reason for many events, that they may strengthen their judgment in reason and truth.

6. I come again to teach men, not to learn from them. In the Second Time I was seen in the Temple of Wisdom speaking with princes and teachers of the law, whom I astonished with words that a man can neither pronounce nor understand. This happened in the childhood of Jesus.

7. When the time of preaching came, I set out for Jordan in search of the Baptist, who knew me as soon as he saw me. The way John recognized me and the humility with which he worshipped his Master are an example of spiritualization, of seers and exaltation.

8. Today I have returned to you and I had to speak much to you to overcome materialism, doubt and coldness of your heart

9. Here I am, disciple, teaching you to recognize the gifts of your Spirit, to understand the rapture, because in the rapture you hear the voice of the Spirit*, the impenetrable becomes transparent and the darkness is illuminated

* Spanish "conciencia" literally means conscience or consciousness. More appropriate sometimes appears "Spirit," which contains in its core the divine spark with conscience as well as consciousness.

10. This state of exaltation must not be the prerogative of a few beings only; it is a gift that is slumbering in every Spirit, but in past times I have always gladly made use of those who have known how to make use of this grace. For the rapture to be perfect, you must first observe a fasting period, like the righteous of the First Times.

11. Before Jesus began to preach the Good News, he taught you these lessons in the Second Time, withdrawing for forty days into the desert to be gathered in solitude, to be immersed spiritually and to be strengthened in the Most High.

12. Verily, I tell you, in those hours of most intimate union with God, Jesus as a man saw the symbol of sacrificial death and his body trembled Heaven opened, and in it he saw the end that awaited him. He saw the darkened mountain and at its height a cross to which he was nailed. His ears heard the mockery of a crowd and the sentences they addressed to him: "If you are the Son of God, come down from the cross and be saved. He drank the cup of suffering, for he was to show you all his love in that trial. It was his mission to show you the way and to defeat you with the divine weapons of love, forgiveness and humility. These weapons are more powerful than any sword and have more power than the raging waves of the sea. They have made even those people feel love that they had never felt.

13. After a certain time people were defeated by my teaching of truth, love, and comfort.

14. I do not ask you to follow me in all the way of sacrifice and blood that I went through in the second time. Some of you will fulfil one part, others will follow the Master in another example, for Christ exists only once.

15. Prepare yourselves to follow me, for you do not yet know what part it is that you must follow. But if you are destined to feel as Jesus did, that the words of the hypocrites and unbelievers will strike you like lashes on the naked body, rise up in rapture to the Father, as the Master taught you on the cross, and the power of God will rest fully on your Spirit, which will strengthen his body. When you then open your eyes, you will experience the same as Jesus in the desert after the rapture, when the golden sun shone through the rocks and sand, fresh drops of dew, which a breath of air carried, caressed his forehead and soothed his agony.

16. Before Jesus, the just among the righteous, in whom the divine Spirit was hidden, made known the kingdom of love, he prepared himself in this way to give you another example of humility and perfection; and you, the disciples of the Third Age, have heard that my word has told you: Come to me and be the good sowers of my word, for the world has strayed from its spiritual path.

17. I have reminded you of the teachings of the Second Age so that you may unite them with my new teachings and with them enlighten mankind, O workers of the Third Age!

18. Feel my presence which enlightens your Spirit and prepares you to understand my message of peace

19. Forget your sufferings so that you may receive my word and its essence may remain in your heart.

20. I have sent you once more to earth so that you may continue your mission, so that you may realize that your Spirit must pass through a ladder of perfection, and you will reach a greater level of development according to your merits. You have a single Master, a single Light will guide you and always show you the way to your higher development. You all can ascend when you fulfill your mission. Long ago you began the journey of life, and yet you have not progressed very far. I give you a stimulus for this when I let you already in this world, in which you live today, divine the spiritual life of other worlds.

21. When you take a closer look at the life of all living beings, you will see it endowed with many blessings and proofs of love. You will discover in me the best friend, the inseparable companion and the divine physician. In this time, in which I extend my loving protection over all my children, you shall have a share in all these gifts, because you are created in my image and likeness.

22. For a long time you have forgotten yourselves and the bonds that bind you to me, as well as your nature similar to mine, and because of this you have sunk and gone astray. The spiritual path has no end, and I show you it from its beginning. If you are not on it, come forward, and I will help you to walk it, to make up for lost time.

23. Lest the world enslave you, dedicate a part of your time to the training and development of your Spirit.

24. Many of your fellow men live in great desolation. They are near you, and you have not noticed it. You cannot yet empathize in your hearts, but it pleases me to see you practicing my teaching, and I take more pleasure in contemplating those whose Spirit gives love and comfort than those who devote themselves only to the study of my Word and forget their duties to their fellows.

25. Work so that you may have peace, work fully in this time, so that you may set an example through work, obedience and faith.

26. I come to you to be recognized as the only God, the Father of all beings, to tell you that I will make of each one of you a disciple and an heir of me. I will give you a seed from my teaching, which is like a mighty tree, that you may bring it up and carry it to many places, so that mankind may feed on its fruits.

27. Every wrong interpretation given of my words or my works I will correct, for I will unify your knowledge, so that you all love me in the same way. Watch for the world and let your Spirit bring light and peace to men and make sure that the world is illuminated by the bright light that radiates from my Spirit. The light is progress, love is salvation, and peace is hope. Love is a matter of the heart, peace is based on the Spirit, and both are a reflection of eternity.

28. I see that some of my children feel bored at the loving word of Jesus, and this is because their senses are not at my word; they are busy in their thoughts with material matters, and therefore their hearts are empty when they stop listening to me. But the Master does not cease to approach his children to make their hearts beat faster through his divine teaching.

29. Men, you who awaken your faculties to know human science, and let them fall asleep while studying the divine spiritual teaching! You walk weary on the thorny paths in search of the goal of your human knowledge. But I will choose my servants from among the lost and let their hearts beat in love for their fellow men.

30. Even if men do not care for their spiritual progress - I watch over all spirits. If they do not listen to the voice of their conscience, which is my own voice, they will not commune with my divinity.

31. This humanity is still idolatrous because of its materialism! Aaron, Aaron, you have created the idol before the eyes of Israel, but verily, the false gods will be thrown down from the pedestal to the ground! Where is the temple of Solomon? Where is the holy of holies? If I made the symbols that were allowed to disappear - how could I not fight the fanatical cults to extinction? Solomon built a material temple to worship me, but even from him no stone was left upon another.

32. The clergy of that time dressed royally to symbolically officiate at the sacrifice of Jesus, and although they take my name and my representation, I discover that their minds are confused, their hearts stirred by the storms of intrigue and passion There is not one who proclaims as a prophet that I am among the people of this time. They will experience great suffering because there is no spiritual armament among them. Where is the fulfillment of those who before Jesus vowed to follow his trail? Where are the followers of my apostles? Is there any like John, who was among the first, or Paul, who was among the followers?

33. Wherefore the Master draweth near unto you again to take up his teaching again. Already I see the new Pharisees and scribes rushing against me with hatred. Just then I will ask, "Where are my disciples? But when the proud, the false, the rich who fear to lose their power, those who threatened by my truth, mock and persecute me again, wild storms will break out. But it will not be I who collapses under the weight of the cross, but those who demanded the sacrifice of him who gave them life.

34. It is not a human voice that you hear in these moments, it is the voice of heaven that announces to you the events that are to come, so that you who hear my prophecies may be prepared and not dismayed when you experience that even the forces of nature are thrown off balance; for I am the universal power and the justice, and in justice I will reveal myself.

35. I have come to remove the vices of the world so that men may be freed from sinful customs and beliefs, be inspired and speak of the Spirit. Then they will see me symbolically in the loving figure of Jesus, who shows them the way that leads to the true goal of the Spirit, where I await them.

36. You are guardians of the "Third Testament". Preserve this legacy with the greatest zeal for future generations. Show my work with the perfection inherent in it, for if you should come to me without having fulfilled your mission, you will have to come again into the flesh, and then your struggle will be very hard.

37. In this time, in this desert of human life, take Moses as your model. Verily, I say to you: You are again on the mountain (Sinai), because there my voice will sound and tell you: Understand me. The mountain of this time is your elevation, where you will receive my commandment and hear my voice in your conscience. Already from there you will be able to see the Promised Land, which is in the perfection of the Spirit.

38. The divine law never passes away, but the human laws do change according to the spiritual development of men.

39. "Thou shalt love God with all thy heart and with all thy soul" is the first commandment of the divine law, which has not changed, nor will change. Its essence, its meaning, its teaching are eternal. But you have also heard that you were told, "You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy," but the latter was not a commandment of the divine law, but one of the many human statutes that corresponded to that time.

40. I came to you in Jesus and said to you, "Love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, pray for those who insult and persecute you, that you may be recognized as the children of your Father in heaven. This is spiritual law, therefore eternally valid, it will not be changed in any way. Only the human being changes, develops and transforms.

41. What can you do to know which are the teachings, revelations, prophecies, and laws whose usefulness has already passed away, and which are still valid? Which revelations are eternally in force, and which prophecies have not been fulfilled? Verily, I tell you, only sincere prayer and a fruitful life can give you enough spirituality to discover the divine essence I have given you in the three times.

42. When the scribes and the Pharisees observed the acts of Jesus and discovered that they did not agree with theirs, they claimed that the teaching he proclaimed was against the Law of Moses. The reason for this was that they confused the Law with the traditions. But I proved to them that I had not come to transgress the law which the Father had revealed to Moses, but to fulfill it with words and works.

43. It is true that I transgressed many traditions of that people, because the time had already come for their abolition to usher in a new age of higher teachings

44. If I had told you everything in the first revelations, it would not have been necessary for the Master, the Messiah, to teach you new teachings, nor that in this time the HolySpirit came to show you the glories of spiritual life Therefore, I tell you not to cling to what was revealed to you in former times as if it were the last word of my teaching. I came to men anew, and for a long time through their minds I have made myself known, and I can moreover tell you that my last word has not yet been spoken.

45. Seek always the last word in my book of wisdom, the new page that reveals to you the meaning and significance of what was given before, that you may be my disciples in truth.

46. Today you live far from those who suffer more than you. But once spiritualization enlightens your life, then you will seek to live with those whom you keep away from today, either because you consider them lost, or because they make you dislike them.

47. You will become bearers of the word of light, redemption and hope, turning to those who have been forgotten by their neighbors.

48. To no one shall you speak with severity, for in this way there is no salvation. You must learn that one must not insult the sinner to punish his transgression.

49. I say to you: If you speak to predators with love, they bow their heads.

50. If he to whom ye speak should have some merit, tell him. If you should discover in him any virtue among many vices, do not speak to him of the vices, but of virtue, so as to stimulate and incite him to goodness.

51. Let it be love that guides you, that you may become true ambassadors of the divine Comforter. For you who have fallen into no abyss are always quickly at hand to accuse, to judge. Without the slightest compassion you recklessly condemn your neighbor, and that is not my teaching.

52. If, before you judge, you would examine yourselves and your faults - I assure you, your judgment would be more merciful. You consider those in prisons to be bad, and you consider those in hospitals to be wretched. You keep away from them without realizing that they are worthy to enter the kingdom of my love. You do not want to think that they too have the right to receive the rays of the sun, which was created to give life and warmth to all creatures, without any exception.

53. Those who are locked up in places of atonement are often mirrors in which people do not want to see themselves, because they know that the image that that mirror reveals to them will in many cases be that of an accusation.

54. But I tell you: Blessed are those of my workers who are able to feel in their hearts the torment of those who live deprived of freedom or health, and who visit and comfort them; for one day they will meet again, in this life or another, and you do not know whether they will not then have more health, greater freedom and more light than those who brought them the message of love in a prison or a hospital; then they will show their gratitude and reach out their hand to the one who gave it to them at another time.

55. That moment when you looked up my word to their hearts, that moment when your hand passed over their foreheads and you made them think of me and feel me, will never be blotted out of their Spirit, any more than your face and your brotherly voice will be forgotten in their minds, wherefore they will recognize you wherever you are.

56. As you hear my word here, you forget for a short time the sufferings that affect all men, and you suppress from your consciousness the ideas of destruction, war, and death that threaten mankind.

57. Do you fear pain? - Banish sin, and pain will do nothing against you. You shall feel another pain, but it will no longer be pain related to itself. It will not be yours, but you will begin to suffer out of love for others.

58. When the Spirit soars, he feels with his neighbors, and the more he approaches me and loves me, the greater is his love for his brothers.

59. I am teaching you at this time to walk the path that will free you from the fears and sufferings caused by the hostilities and ambitious aspirations of men - teachings that you sometimes consider impracticable; but soon you will faithfully embrace them, convinced that it is the only way to salvation.

60. You have not yet understood the meaning of my word, nor do you realize your task. Therefore, there are some who, though they feel spiritual bliss in listening to me, prefer to depart again for fear of making commitments to their Master and to their fellows. And there are others who say to me, "Lord, it is not possible for us to follow Your teachings and instructions because we are immature, human and materialized. But do not fail us to listen to Your words. It is so beautiful that, despite its impracticality, it fills our hearts with joy and peace."

61. Alas, little children, you who do not know what you are saying! You call my teaching impracticable, you consider its realization impossible, and yet you are not aware that you hear it through an impure sinful human being, as you all are, for whom it was not impossible to transmit the message of God to men.

62. What is more impossible than this?

63. Love your Father, have mercy on your neighbor, separate yourselves from everything that is harmful to your human life or to your soul. My teaching teaches you this. Where do you see the difficulties and the impossibilities?

64. No, beloved people, it is not impossible to obey my word; it is not this that is difficult, but your improvement, renewal and spiritualization, because you lack generous feelings and high aspirations. But since I know that all your doubts, ignorance and indecision must disappear, I will continue to teach you, because for me there is nothing impossible. I can turn stones into bread of eternal life and I can make crystal clear water gush from rocks.

65. Get to the bottom of my word and you will no longer have to go in search of the truth. At the core of this message you will discover the richness of light that your Spirit needs.

66. Fathom my word so that you may be nourished by its spiritual content, you may find my presence and feel my divine caress. When studying, be careful not to get stuck on the letter and try to interpret all that you find symbolic and likeness. Seek simplification and spirituality in your research, observations and studies, and always remember that tomorrow you must share this message with your fellow men, to whom you must transmit it in a prepared form so that they may understand it more quickly.

67. Eliminate in time every symbol and every earthly image, but preserve their meaning.

68. Understand the little value of expressions when you compare them with the eternal essence of the spiritual. You too should strive to penetrate this wisdom little by little so that the practice of my teachings may not seem impossible to you.

69. Unite, beloved disciples, for the time of your struggle has come and will be short for each of you, considering the brevity of your life on earth.

70. Hurry, you have much to do. Do not think that you lack anything to be my disciples in this work.

71. In the second time I also chose my apostles. They were not scholars, they were not luminaries of human wisdom. They were simple fishermen of the sea, but I made them sowers and fishermen of the Spirit.

72. I will also make you spiritual fishermen so that you may bring My message of love to all hearts lost in the vast sea of passions and materialism in which mankind lives; and from there, from that sea, you shall bring out and save everyone who is called by you in My name.

73. Then my message of hope will reach the heart of the fratricidal, manslaughtering, proud, worldly man, unfeeling to the pain and misery of others, and in all of them my word will be fulfilled.

74. First of all, and while you are still preparing, pray for the nations and the peoples, pray for all, for humanity is going on thistles and thorns, the same ones that were scattered before, so that others should step on them It is men themselves who have prepared their destruction, and afterwards they are compelled to beg for mercy, which they never felt for any of their neighbors.

75. But it is necessary to save, to forgive, and to redeem, for in every man dwells a Spirit, who must come to me.

76. Ye are the firstfruits of a people that shall be the spiritual beacon of mankind. A new Israel, which - once freed from its bondage - will set out in longing for the highest ideal that exists in the Spirit, which is to live in the bosom of God, your Lord.

77. You are still far from being able to enlighten the way of your fellow men by your example. But my voice, which resounds in your conscience, encourages you to go forward, not to despair, to persevere in the struggle, for only in this way will this people write its history in the hearts of men.

78. The trials that you see daily in your life are the anvil on which your Spirit is made supple, where your virtue is to prove itself and your faith to become strong.

79. Without trials there is no merit, without merit there can be no reward.

80. Reflect on the trials that Israel went through in the first days. Consider its bitterness, its tribulations and hardships, and you will understand why it was granted to come to the Promised Land, where that people had peace, healthy joy of life and fellowship with their Lord for many centuries.

81. Not forever did the happiness of that people last in the land granted to them as a reward for their faith and perseverance, for nothing is eternal in the world. But I tell you in truth that the new Promised Land, which is the goal of the ascent of your Spirit, will certainly last forever. This will definitely give you shelter forever and let you feel the infinite bliss of being able to enjoy, experience, feel and get to know the spiritual life in all its fullness and bliss.

82. I bless each of these homes where you come together to pray and receive the bread of my word, just as I bless your homes. Verily, I tell you, none of these places of gathering means more than any of your homes.

83. If you enter here gathered and reverently, knowing that the place is destined to unite you in prayer to form the spiritual temple, I tell you also that your home is another temple. For just as the Spirit creates his sanctuary in prayer, in the divine word, in inner contemplation and in the exercise of the law, so man finds another worship service in his home, where he finds caress, warmth, examples, teachings and advice. But do not confuse the home with the material house. It could disappear and expose you to the rigors of the weather, and yet your home would not be destroyed as long as there is love, respect, obedience, and all those virtues among you which the human family should possess to an ever-increasing degree.

84. Neither can these places of assembly constitute the true temple, for if you carry it in your soul, you can meet it both here and in your home, in the city as well as in the country, under a tree, in the mountains, by the sea or in the desert.

85. The temple of the Spirit is everywhere; therefore it needs only your armor to find it.

86. For now continue to gather yourselves together in these churches. Do so as long as you have the need, for my love, my mercy and my gifts of grace will be poured out on your gatherings, where, according to my will, my presence will be felt, where I will cause souls to be born anew for the light and the sick to experience the miracle of their healing while listening to my words.

87. My Father-heart is always ready to give you what you ask for, what you need. Yet your Father must not do everything alone. You live in a time when the love of the Master must echo in the heart of the disciples for the miracle to become a reality.

88. Be untiring in repeating my word. Like an invisible chisel it will take over the task of smoothing the sharp edges of your character until you are prepared to deal with even the most difficult problems of your fellow men. You will find suffering, atonement, and reparations with them, the causes of which can be very different. Some do not have a particularly difficult origin, but there will be others that you can only enlighten by intuition, revelation and spiritual vision to free your fellow men from a heavy burden. These spiritual gifts will bring about that miracle only when the one who operates them is inspired by compassion for his neighbor.

My peace be with you!
