Only that which corresponds to the word of God is divine will. The lord lived on earth, and this life was dedicated to spreading His word.... He taught people in the simplest possible way how they should lead their lives; He gave them guidelines and made everything understandable through examples.... He set Himself as an example, modelled life for them and promised eternal life to those who followed Him. Through His teaching, He wanted to educate people to think correctly and repeatedly sought to awaken love in them. His life was an uninterrupted labour of love, He sought to heal the body and the soul, He gave love from the bottom of His heart, and all His thoughts and actions were directed solely towards the salvation of erring souls. Thus He preached the word of God on earth, and the word of God is still the same today.... the expression of the divine will, as it was from eternity and will remain for eternity.... the admonition to love.... There is only one thing that has real meaning always and forever.... That is love. love on earth brings redemption from the form, love in the hereafter eternal glory. It is always love to which mankind is to be educated, and the divine word will always and constantly admonish people to love and warn them against unkindness. And thus the divine will will always be that which has love as a prerequisite.... Now people can no longer differentiate between human work and God's work, and they need only apply the standard of how far an action is determined by love and serves love.... whether it awakens love or gives love.... whether the omission of an action somehow has a damaging effect on a fellow human being, thus would then be an act of unkindness, or whether it does not result in any significant disadvantage. And so commandments that prescribe such actions would be superfluous, i.e. not in accordance with divine will, because they distract attention from what is really important and what God Himself demands of people in His commandments....

Amen
