From Teaching 105

2. From generation to generation, the gifts of the spirit will be manifesting themselves greater and clearer, and those things, emerging from even the most skeptical and unbelieving, will be a truthful testimony of what I announced in past eras and have come to confirm in this period of time.

5. You have marveled at the gift of intuition; and the gift of healing has amazed you. It is necessary, then, that you leave a good example to the spiritualists of tomorrow.

6. The period of time that Joel prophesied that men would receive upon their spirit and flesh, the Spirit of God, is this; and it is only the beginning. It is necessary for you, as the first disciples, to leave a good seed, in order for your good deeds to bear good fruits, which will encourage the wayfarers of tomorrow along their journey, and not be a stony path on which they could stumble.

8. The analysis you make of My Word and the fulfillment you give to it, will be the best spiritual work you will leave for the future generations; they will be grateful to you, and I will bless you.

11. Disciples: Do not think that only in the midst of the people of Israel did My envoys, prophets, forerunners and illuminated ones emerge, because you would be disavowing many of My emissaries whom I have sent with messages of light, of peace and love, to different places on Earth.

12. Mankind is the earth where I sow the seed of love, which was sprinkled with Divine dew, so that when the seed of My Word appeared, it would find a favourable field to bear fruit.

13. When some revelation is about to illuminate humanity, I have always sent forerunners or prophets to prepare them in order for that light to be contemplated by them. However, do not believe that only those who bring messages for the spirit are My envoys; no, disciples, everyone who, among mankind, sows Good in any of its forms, is an envoy of mine.

14. You will find those emissaries in all the paths of your existence; among religions, as well as in sciences; among men who govern, or among those who impart good teachings.

15. A true servant of mine never withdraws from the pathway that he must travel; he prefers to die along the way rather than retreat. His example is seed of light in the life of his fellowmen, and his deeds are examples for the rest. Ah! If humanity could only understand the messages I send through him! But that does not happen, for there are many men who, having delicate missions in the world, turn away from those great examples, and choose the path they much rather prefer.

16. You have rulers who do not harbour justice in their heart, nor the generosity to govern their people because they are after a miserable ideal of power and wealth. Men who proclaim to be representatives of mine, and who do not even recognise love for their fellowmen; physicians who do not know the essence of their mission, which is charity; and judges who confuse justice with vengeance, and use the law for wicked purposes.

17. Everyone who swerves from his path, turning away from that illumination that he bears within the light of his conscience, cannot imagine the judgment he is preparing for himself.

18. There are also those who assume missions which do not correspond to them, and, with their mistakes, they are giving proof of absolutely lacking the necessary gifts to fulfill the responsibilities they have taken upon themselves.

19. Thus you will find ministers of God who are not, because they were not sent for that purpose; men who guide people and who are not capable of guiding their own footsteps; teachers who lack the gift of teaching, and who, instead of creating light, confuse the minds; physicians whose heart has not felt the sentiment of compassion for the suffering of others, thus ignoring that he who truly possesses that gift, is an apostle of Christ.

All My institutions have been profaned by men; however, the moment has now come when all their deeds shall be judged. That judgment corresponds to Me to grant, which is why I say to you: Be watchful and comply with My precepts of love and forgiveness.

20. I have told you, that you form a part of the people of Israel, the possessor of a Divine seed. So be prepared to be worthy of carrying with you the seed of love, of peace, and of light.

21. Meditate upon the lessons that I have taught you this day, so that you will not deviate from the path that I have outlined for you, usurping duties that do not correspond to you; and so that you do not make unwise use of your gifts, because if after hearing all of My lessons, you fall prey to those errors I have pointed out to you, your judgment will have to be more severe than that of the one who, during his lifetime, never learned of a single teaching with the light that is contained within this one that you have received.

23. I have lit a light along the path of the spirit, so that he will not go astray and will come firmly along the pathway, like a sheep who knows where the fold is.

24. That light, which is of spiritual knowledge, illuminates the opening and discovers the wolf when it lurks in the underbrush.

25. Not all men move along the safe path; there are many stray ones along the way, wandering travelers, beings without a set course. When I cross their path, and I ask them: -Where are you going? What or whom do you seek?-, bowing their heads they answer Me: -Master, I know not where I am going, where my footsteps will lead me, nor do I know what I seek-. Then, I say to them: -Follow Me-.

And just that word, penetrating within their heart, has been enough to kindle a light of hope, a flame of faith, which has encouraged them to come in quest of My footsteps, because at the moment they rose to follow Me, they felt an unknown strength, which has not forsaken them for a moment, making them feel an absolute confidence in their destiny.

27. Keep in mind, disciples, those of you who are beginning to follow the Master, that when the trials cross your path, you will ponder: "I was already prepared. The Master had warned Me, and I am confident of coming out ahead with his Divine help."

Truly I say to you, that if you accept these lessons with a strong and elevated spirit, you will prove that not one trial is in vain, for it is all the same if one is destined for one man, and the other takes place within a family; or one touches a nation. Each and all of them encompasses a profound meaning, and many times, great lessons. Who can say at this moment to be exempt from trials? No one, because it is a time of spiritual restitution.

28. Open your eyes to reality, and be aware of the responsibility you incur upon listening to My Word and become witnesses of My manifestations in this period of time.

I want to remind you not to be satisfied just listening to My Word and satisfying your spiritual needs, without thinking about those of others, for that satisfaction cannot be complete if you meditate upon the fact that precisely during those moments of your spiritual rejoicing, millions of your brethren struggle, despair, or perish in the midst of gunfire in fratricidal wars.

29. My Doctrine comes to prepare you for a struggle in favour of the peace and of spirituality in the world. My teaching comes to advise you what you must do, so that everyone can take part in this Work of salvation. Then your spirit will begin to experience peace and satisfaction, which correspond to those who labor with Me in My Works of love.

30. That sensitivity that your heart is acquiring upon listening to Me you must not lose, as you return to your earthly struggle, because right there, along those pathways, your brethren are waiting for a word from you that is filled with comfort, or a phrase that will carry My message of light to their heart. However, if when they appear before you, your heart has returned to its habitual hardness, you will not even be able to take a glimpse inside the one who had come looking within you for that which was not yours, but his: My light, My peace, My healing balsam.

31. Do not believe that your lack of love toward humanity will remain without retribution, for if you fail in your spiritual responsibilities, the multitudes will come, and on penetrating within your congregation and becoming aware of the message you have concealed or retained from them, they will inwardly question themselves if these are My new apostles; while others, penetrating into My new teaching, will give you a lesson of how the Divine mandates should be fulfilled.

33. May no one say to Me, that along his pathway there are great obstacles in order to comply, for if you believe that the "leaf of a tree does not move without the will of the Father," you must understand that beyond what you call obstacles, you must fulfill your mission.

35. Love, serve, be useful, save, and comfort; make of your life fine examples, a beautiful and practical lesson, so that you will be imitated. Then you will be spreading spiritual light upon your brethren.

By speaking of My Doctrine, you will comply with the mission of sowing the seed of spirituality; but do so with humility, taking into account, that every deed containing vanity, will be a vain seed, never to germinate.

36. I assure you, that if you act during your life with the discretion, sincerity, and rectitude that I advise, those hardened hearts of whom you speak to Me in your prayer, will soften, touched by your virtue, and you will be convinced that for the fulfillment of this mission, the elevated spirit will never encounter obstacles, for he will be above all the insignificant things of this existence.

37. Never think badly of those who do not like you; neither should you become exasperated with those who do not understand you, because even the most intimate feeling you may have against your fellowmen will be transmitted by your thoughts.

39. I have given the spirit power over matter, in order for him to triumph over his trials and reach the end of the pathway; but the struggle will be great, because ever since man established in the world the only kingdom he believes in, the harmony which should exist between him and everything around him was disrupted.

From his arrogant throne, he would like to submit everything to the power of his science and impose his will over the elements and natural forces; but he has not succeeded, because long ago he tore down his friendly ties with the spiritual laws.

Now, when I have said to these people that the elements will obey them, there have been some who have not believed; and I say to you, that they are right in doubting, because nature will never obey those who disregard, profane, or deceive her.

On the other hand, he who is able to live in accord with the laws of the spirit and the material, that is, he who lives in harmony with everything around him, he will identify himself with his Creator throughout his lifetime, making himself worthy for the elements of Nature to serve and obey him, as it corresponds to every son who knows how to obey his Father, the Creator of everything that exists.

40. I have not said that these people have reached the necessary elevation to perform those miracles, nor that they are already achieving the harmony between the material and the spiritual. I only inspire them to seek that goal through spirituality.

41. At times, to encourage you in your faith and prove to you the veracity of My Words, I perform, before you, those deeds which you call miracles and wonders, and which are only a reward for those who were able to penetrate in the universal harmony, even though it was just for a moment.

42. The history of the first men who inhabited the Earth passed from generation to generation until it came to be written in the Book of the First Era. It is a living parable of those first beings who inhabited the Earth. Their purity and innocence allowed them to feel the caress of Mother Nature. A warmth of friendship existed among all beings and complete fraternity among all creatures.

Later, human passions began separating men from that existence; so they were forced to search through science for what they had lost from their lack of spirituality. In that way, mankind has reached that point where, in order to survive, it has had to take away from the elements and forces, the necessities for their existence.

43. I do not prohibit you to engage in science, nor do I condemn it. I only want man to understand through this Doctrine, that there is a greater science than what they know, and which they can obtain through love, which is the essence of all My teachings.

44. Humanity: Why can I not say to you, that these times in which you live are of confusion, when I am seeing that you do not allow My light to enter through the darkened clouds of your thoughts? I also say to you, that My light will triumph, because there is no darkness that can resist its clarity; then, you will comprehend that the Father will never abandon you during your trying moments.

45. Many people have fallen into the deep abyss of materiality, and still others are about to fall; but the pain of their downfall will make them awaken from their profound sleep.

46. Those are the nations that, after an era of splendour, rolled down the abyss to sink into the darkness of suffering, of vice and of misery. Now it is not only a nation, but also all of humanity, who blindly hastens toward death and confusion. The arrogance of the people shall be touched by My justice. Remember Nineveh, Babylon, Greece, Rome and Cartage; in them you will find profound lessons of the Divine justice.

47. When men, wielding the scepter of power, have allowed their heart to be filled with impiety, pride and insane passions, dragging their people toward degeneration, My justice has drawn near to deprive them of their power, but at the same time, I have kindled a torch before them which will illuminate the path of salvation for their spirit.

What would become of men if, at the moment of their trials, I would forsake them to their own fate?

Behold all those nations that were great yesterday, and today are in ruins. They shall flourish again, but it will not be the pride and ambition of earthly greatness that will cause them to rise; rather, an ideal, inspired in justice and virtue that comes forth from My teachings. From those ruins, new nations will emerge, and over the ruins of their temples and of their idols, they will erect the true worship to their God.

48. Pride has been abased, and sin has been washed away through suffering; but do not forget that there still remains much to be cleansed, and no matter how pure the life of man on Earth may be, this planet can never be the eternal mansion for the spirit. He who so believes, will have erroneously interpreted My Word, or is ignoring the true meaning of life.

49. This world will always be a transitory mansion for the spirit; only a part in the road of his restitution, of his evolution and perfectionment. It is another existence that awaits you to keep you eternally.

50. The sick, the defeated and the poor of spirit, come before My presence; and while some bless My will, others, rebel against the hardships and attribute their suffering to a Divine punishment or injustice of destiny; then, it is necessary for me to come and free you from ignorance by revealing the profoundness of the truth.

51. When you dwell in the flesh, your spirit comes to purify blemishes of past lives, and it becomes necessary to reveal all this, so that you may bear your suffering on Earth with patience.

52. Since the beginning of mankind, the reincarnation of the spirit exists as a law of love and justice, and as one of the ways through which the Father has shown His infinite clemency. Reincarnation is not only of this period of time, but for all eras; and do not think that it is only now that this mystery has been revealed to you.

Ever since the first eras, there existed in man the intuition of the reincarnation of the spirit. But this humanity, seeking the material knowledge and riches of the world, allowed themselves to be dominated by the passions of the flesh, hardening those fibers with which the spiritual is perceived, thus becoming deaf and blind to everything which corresponds to the spirit. What is the use for them to set their eyes upon books containing the Law and the Doctrine that I revealed to you during past eras, if their mind is not able to penetrate into its significance, nor does their heart perceive its essence?

Recognise that sensitivity and spiritual intuition are wasted away in man, and that is why most of the time, while in search of My truth in those texts, they fall into erroneous interpretations. They have the light before their eyes, but instead of penetrating into the profoundness of My lessons, they dally on the words; in other words, on the exterior form, with which they frequently confuse themselves. But I am here now, to shed light upon the mysteries and darkness, as well as to liberate you from confusions and errors.

53. Blessed are those who have called Me, because by doing so, they have shown their yearning for love and knowledge. They have seen how My charity helps them, but you must understand that you cannot obtain in a moment all that you wish to know during this period of time, for it is necessary for you to pray, meditate and live My teachings, in order to possess what you long for.

55. If you wish, you may scrutinise My Words; but then, you must study and observe life through them, so that you can confirm the truth contained in all I have said.

56. There will be occasions when it may seem that there exists contradiction between what I say to you now, and what was revealed to you during past eras, but there is not. The confusion lies in man; but everyone will ultimately reach the light.

57. If you find yourself attacked because of this manner of understanding My Doctrine, do not fear, for truly I say to you, that no one is in the right. Therefore, nobody can prove to you that he has as yet already penetrated into the bottom of the truth.

58. Study My Doctrine; obtain the light by means of prayer. Make the Good the norm of your life, and in some moment, when you least expect it, you will be surprised by inspirations and thoughts, which will be true revelations of My Spirit.

59. When you feel that My inspirations come to you, be humble, so that you will never believe yourselves to be greater than the others, and so that you will partake of the light with your brethren with that love which I have bestowed upon you.
