Teaching.... protection against erroneous teachings.... spirit of God....

The regulated exchange of thoughts from spirit to spirit is a continuous teaching of man, whose knowledge still shows gaps and who one day is to be enabled to likewise appear teaching in earthly circles. The world beyond is still unexplored by people because only a few have been able to impart the purest truth. Man has indeed always endeavoured to lift the veil which is spread over it by God's wisdom and to fathom things which were of interest to him, however, these efforts are rarely based on the pure desire for truth, the urge to know about divine activity, it was rather a certain earthly thirst for knowledge which drove such research and therefore the results were not always free of error. For the human being, whose thirst for knowledge is based on earthly impulses, very easily runs the risk of being used by the opposing side to spread errors; for everything that is dear to the human being to hear is put into his mind by the opposing forces. Thus the conclusions or results will always correspond to what the human being has imagined.... and these ideas in turn correspond more or less to the truth, depending on whether the desire for truth about spiritual things is predominant or only minimally present in the human being. If, however, a constant communication with spiritual power is initiated.... if a person has succeeded in awakening the divine spirit within himself through his way of life so that it now instructs the person, then this awakening of God's spirit in the person already presupposes the deepest desire for truth, and the invocation of good spiritual strength, the prayer for God's blessing and grace, protects the now receiving earthly child from every error, and thus the results of such regular instruction correspond to the truth, and these can now be confidently built upon and every train of thought can take its starting point in them. It is true that the human being is very easily in danger of stumbling, i.e, to take account of his wishes, and these wishes can also take on an earthly colour at times, but then the spirit of God in the human being will not express itself or will do so with great difficulty and thereby immediately lead the receiving earthly child back onto the right path, but the spirit from God can never consciously lose itself in error, and a person who is concerned with serving the lord God will never give up his desire for truth for reasons of self-love and give himself over to accepting untruths and writing them down.... For a person who is given such a task is well aware of it; his endeavours are only for the spiritual benefit of his fellow human beings, and thus the spirit of God in man refuses to bring error into the world. Thus a pure spiritual connection from earth to the beyond will be the safest protection against misguided teachings, for the one in this connection seeks the truth and the giver is likewise the bearer of truth, since the seeker of truth only ever attracts such as spiritual teachers. Consequently, nothing untrue finds entry into this circle, for the desire for truth itself creates the boundaries that an untrue being cannot cross. Therefore, as long as the endeavour of the person being taught is only to serve God and the truth, as long as the human being only strives to receive divine grace and thereby mature in body and soul, as long as no success whatsoever causes him to utilize his received gifts earthly, but only the motive of love for God and his neighbour determines him to establish this connection with the beyond, then the giver of what the human being receives will also be God Himself and every result will therefore be purest truth....

Amen

PODUKA.... ZAŠTITA OD OBMANJUJUĆIH UČENJA.... DUH BOŽJI....

Redovita razmjena misli od Duha duhu, je trajna poduka čovjeka, čije znanje još pokazuje nedostatke, a koji će jednom morati biti sposoban nastupiti podučavajući u zemaljskim krugovima. Svijet onostranog je još uvijek zatvoren ljudima, jer je tek slabo (nedovoljno) mogao posredovati najčišću Istinu. Čovjek je doista uvijek nastojao podići veo, koji je nad tim rasprostrt Božjom mudrošću, pretresati i istraživati stvari koje ga zanimaju, ali tek rijetko su ovi napori imali za temelj žudnju za Čistom Istinom, poriv da spoznaju Božansko djelovanje, nego je takvim istraživanjima poticaj radije bio određena zemaljska radoznalost, te zbog toga ni učinci nisu uvijek bili slobodni od pogreške (obmane). Jer čovjek, čija je radoznalost utemeljena u zemaljskim osjećajima, vrlo lako potpadne pod opasnost da bude iskorišten od protivničke strane za širenje obmana; jer sve što čovjek voli (je sklon) čuti, protivničke sile mu polažu misaono u svijest. Tako će i zaključci ili posljedice uvijek odgovarati onome što je čovjek zamislio (pretpostavio).... a ove ideje opet više ili manje odgovaraju Istini, ovisno o tome da li u čovjeku prevladava žudnja za Istinom o duhovnim stvarima ili je tek vrlo malo prisutna. Ako je ipak započela stalna komunikacija s duhovnom snagom.... ako je čovjeku, kroz njegov način života, uspjelo u sebi probuditi Božanski Duh, tako da On sada podučava čovjeka, tada ovo buđenje Božanskog Duha u čovjeku, već pretpostavlja najdublju žudnju za Istinom, te dozivanje dobre duhovne snage, molitva za Božji blagoslov i milost, zemaljsko dijete koje prima sada štite od svake obmane, a onda i rezultati takve redovite poduke odgovaraju Istini, i sada se na ovoj može sigurno graditi, i svaki tok misli ima u njoj svoje ishodište. Čovjek je doista vrlo lako u opasnosti da podbaci, odnosno.... da uzima u obzir svoje želje, a ove želje također ponekad mogu poprimiti zemaljski ton, ali onda se Božji Duh u čovjeku neće nikako, ili će se jedino pod velikim poteškoćama izražavati (očitovati), i kroz to odmah iznova zemaljsko dijete dovesti na pravi put, međutim, Božji Duh se ne može nikada svjesno izgubiti u obmani, i čovjek, koji želi (namjerava) služiti Bogu Gospodu, neće nikada napustiti svoju žudnju za Istinom zbog samoljublja, i posvetiti se primanju ili zapisivanju neistine.... Jer čovjek, kojem je postavljen takav zadatak, toga je potpuno svjestan; njegovo nastojanje je jedino duhovna korist bližnjih, i tako Božji Duh u čovjeku odbija donijeti obmanu u svijet. I otuda će čisto duhovna veza od Zemlje do onostranog, biti najsigurnija zaštita protiv obmanjujućih učenja, jer tko je u ovoj vezi, traži Istinu, a davatelj je također nositelj Istine, budući da tražitelj Istine uvijek privlači samo takve kao duhovne učitelje. Prema tome, ništa neistinito ne nalazi pristup u ovaj krug, jer sama žudnja za Istinom stvara granice, koje jedno prijetvorno (neiskreno, lažljivo) biće ne može prekoračiti. Dok god je nastojanje čovjeka koji biva podučavan, služiti jedino Bogu i Istini, dok god čovjek jedino nastoji primiti Božansku milost i kroz to sazrjeti u tijelu i duši, dok god ga nikakav uspjeh ne potiče svoje primljene darove zemaljski procjenjivati, nego ga jedino motiv Ljubavi prema Bogu i prema bližnjemu određuje da uspostavi taj spoj sa onostranim, tako dugo će i Davatelj onoga što čovjek prima, biti Bog Osobno, i onda svaki rezultat Čista Istina.

AMEN
