Violation of divine commandments.... sin.... bondage....

To violate the divine commandments is sin, for it increases the distance from God insofar as that He cannot be where there is unkindness. Everything that goes against the commandment of love will also result in a cooling of divine love and thus be detrimental to the spiritual being itself because it will thereby fall into an increasingly unfriendly state. As a human being this state now has the effect that the power of God's adversary over him becomes ever greater, that he is forced by him under his will, that his thoughts and actions will always be as he wants them to be, thus always opposed to God. And this is unimaginably agonizing for the soul, for it is still so far away from its final liberation that it takes the bound state with it into the spiritual kingdom. For only love can redeem the being, consequently unkindness has to bind. And whoever is therefore unloving towards his neighbour violates the commandment of love and will therefore never be free from the bondage which the former rebellion against God has brought him. That is why God has given people the commandment of love, which they only need to obey in order to thereby come closer to God and be able to enter the spiritual kingdom as a blessed being. Man can sin against the commandment of love by acting contrary to the divine doctrine of love or by omitting actions that are supposed to demonstrate love for his neighbour. Man should not only protect his neighbour from harm, he should benefit him, i.e. do everything to him that seems desirable to him, only then is the connection with God established, because God Himself descends to a loving person and honours him with His closeness.... And this means spiritual freedom for him. The human being frees himself from the power of the adversary, for the power of God, which passes into the human being through His closeness, is stronger than the power of God's adversary.... And the victor will therefore always be the person who connects with eternal love itself through works of love. He will break the shackles and become free from every compulsion that God's adversary wants to exert on him. The commandments of love must not be ignored, for they are the means of release from the endless time of bondage. And at the same time they are the bridge to the connection with God.... For he who is active in selfless love thereby comes ever closer to God and overcomes every distance from Him.... He fulfils God's demand and will also be allowed to receive the reward from God, which consists of God uniting Himself with the one who serves Him in love, i.e. who likewise sees God's creatures in his fellow human beings to whom he wants to do good. Eternal bliss is only the result of unselfish loving activity, just as, conversely, damnation is also the result of unkindness, and everything that is directed against God or His commandments is unjust before God, i.e. sin....

Amen

KRŠENJE BOŽANSKIH ZAPOVEDI.... GREH.... OMEJENOST....

Kršenje Božanskih zapovedi je greh; ono namreč povečuje razdaljo do Boga, ker On ne more biti tam, kjer je neljubeznivost (greh). Vse, kar se upira Ljubezni (Bogu Osebno), obenem tudi za seboj povleče ohlajevanje Božanske Ljubezni, da tako škoduje samemu duhovnemu bitju, ker ono na ta način prihaja v vse bolj nesvobodno (omejeno) stanje. Ko je ono v človeški obliki, se to stanje izraža tako, da sila Božjega nasprotnika (Satana) postaja vse večja nad njim, da je človek s strani njega prisiljen biti pod njegovo voljo, da bodo njegovo razmišljanje in delovanja nenehno takšni, kakršne on želi, da bodo, torej vedno Bogu nasprotni. To pa za dušo predstavlja nezamisljivo trpljenje, ker je ona še tako zelo daleč od svoje končne osvoboditve; ona svoje omejeno stanje prenese v duhovno kraljestvo. Namreč edino Ljubezen (Bog Osebno, Jezus Kristus) lahko osvobodi in reši bitje, kakor ga tudi neljubeznivost (Bogu nasprotno delovanje - greh) mora ravno tako pripeljati do omejenega stanja.

Kdor je torej neljubezniv do svojega bližnjega, ta krši zapoved Ljubezni, in nikoli se ne bo osvobodil omejenosti, katero si je priskrbel z njegovim nekdanjim uporom proti Bogu. Zaradi tega je Bog ljudem dal zapoved Ljubezni, kateri pa morajo oni samó slediti, da bi lahko vstopili v duhovno kraljestvo. Človek lahko stori greh zoper zapovedi ljubezni tako, ko deluje v nasprotju z Božanskim učenjem Ljubezni ali pač, ko zanemarja tiste postopke (delovanja), ki bi morali dokazati Ljubezen do bližnjega (Jakob 4:17). Človek, ne samó da mora bližnjega zaščititi, da ga ne bi prizadel, on mora biti zanj koristen oz. mu storiti vse, kar si on sam želi; šele tedaj bo vzpostavljena veza z Bogom, ker se k človeku, ki ljubi, spušča Sam Bog in ga počasti s Svojo bližino.... to pa zanj predstavlja duhovno svobodo. Človek se osvobaja od lastnega nasprotnika (Satana), ker je Božja moč, ki preko Njegove bližine prehaja v/na človeka, močnejša od sile Božjega nasprotnika.... tako da bo zmagovalec vedno tisti človek, ki se preko del Ljubezni spaja s Samo večno Ljubeznijo (z Bogom). Ta (človek) bo razbil okove in se osvobodil vsake prisile, katero Božji nasprotnik želi vršiti nad njim.

Zapovedi Ljubezni ne smejo biti zanemarjene, ker so one sredstvo osvoboditve iz neskončno dolge periode omejenosti. Vendar pa one obenem tudi predstavljajo most povezovanja z Bogom.... Namreč tisti, ki je dejaven v nesebični Ljubezni, se na ta način vse bolj približuje Bogu in premaguje vsako oddaljenost od Njega.... on izpolnjuje Božje zahteve, in tako bo lahko ravno tako prejel plačo od Boga, katera je sestavljena iz tega, da se Bog zedinja s tistim, ki Mu služi v Ljubezni oz. ki v njegovih bližnjih ravno tako vidi Božje stvaritve, katerim želi storiti dobro. Večna blaženost je edino rezultat nesebične Ljubeznive dejavnosti (aktivnosti), kakor je temu nasprotno prekletstvo posledica neljubeznivosti; in vse, kar je usmerjeno zoper Boga in Njegovih zapovedi, je pred Bogom nepravično oz. greh....

AMEN
