The lord's temple is the human soul when it has moulded itself into love and can now take God Himself into its abode. And this temple is pleasing to God, for now the human being truly serves God, because his activity of love has made him a servant of humanity, and God rewards such love with His nearness.... He comes into the heart of the person who has adorned it as a temple of the lord. The presence of God is the most precious gift for man and therefore also sanctifies the heart that may harbour Him. It has become a temple of God, where God Himself lets His voice be heard by the person in whose heart God has taken up residence. Hearing the voice of God makes man the happiest creature on earth, and he now knows that God is supremely good and holy, that His love is boundless, which leans towards man.... Man himself has become the temple of the lord, and the union with God has taken place.... This is a blissful union, a union of that which once emerged from God with its creator, and such a union must result in supreme bliss for the human being. And this bliss must be the result of a way of life in love, for where there is love there is God.... and where there is God there is unsuspected bliss. As soon as a person has moulded his heart into a temple for the lord, he is a child of God who enters into all filial rights. And so he may also speak with the father from mouth to mouth, he can hear Him at close quarters, he can hear His voice, ask Him and desire an answer, and he will be happy beyond all measure to know that the lord is within him at all times. For whoever's heart the saviour has chosen as His temple will never lose His grace and love, for divine love has seized him and will never leave him again. His spirit has united with the father-spirit and therefore there is no more relapse. Man has passed the test of earthly life, finally freed himself from the power of God's adversary and of his own free will decided in favour of God, Who now rewards his willingness with His boundless love, with His presence, with His voice, which now sounds to him wherever and whenever he wants to hear it. And thus man's heart has become a temple which harbours the holiest within itself, the divine lord Himself, Who has taken up residence in him as He has promised....
Amen
TranslatorGospodarev hram je ljudska duša kad se ona oblikuje u Ljubav tako da se Sam Bog u njoj može nastaniti. I taj hram Bogu je ugodan jer tada čovjek istinski služi Bogu, pošto ga je njegova Ljubav-na aktivnost učinila slugom čovječanstva, a takvu jednu Ljubav Bog nagrađuje Svojom blizinom.... On dolazi u srce onog čovjeka koji ga je uredio kao hram Gospodara. Božje prisustvo je najdivniji poklon za tog čovjeka pa je stoga i (to) srce u kojem On može boraviti počašćeno. Božji hram je nastao tamo gdje Sam Bog čini da zazvuči Njegov glas koji može čuti čovjek u čijem srcu se Bog nastanio.
Čuti Božji glas čovjeka čini najsretnijim stvorenjem na Zemlji te on onda zna da je Bog predobar i svet, da je bezgranična Njegova Ljubav koja je naklonjena čovjeku.... Sam čovjek je postao hramom Gospodara i došlo je do sjedinjenja s Gospodarom.... To je jedno blaženo sjedinjenje, spoj onoga što je nekoć proizišlo iz Boga s njegovim Stvoriteljem, i takav jedan spoj čovjeku mora donijeti najvišu blaženost. A ta blaženost mora biti rezultat života u Ljubavi, jer gdje je Ljubav, tamo je Bog.... a tamo gdje je Bog, tamo je i nezamisliva blaženost.
Kad je čovjek svoje srce uredio kao hram za Gospodara, on je dijete Božje, koje ulazi u sva prava djeteta. Tako da i sa Ocem može razgovarati direktno, može Ga čuti iz najbliže blizine, može čuti Njegov glas, pitati Ga pitanja i žudjeti odgovor, i biti će sretno preko svake mjere što zna da je Gospodar neprestano u njemu. Jer čije srce je Spasitelj izabrao za Svoj hram, taj Njegovu Milost i Ljubav nikad neće izgubiti, jer njega je obuhvatila Božanska Ljubav i Ona ga vječno više ne pušta.
Njegov duh sjedinio se sa Očevim Duhom, tako da više nema propadanja. Ispit zemaljskog života čovjek je položio, definitivno se oslobodio iz vlasti protivnika Boga i iz slobodne volje se odlučio za Boga, Koji sad njegovu voljnost nagrađuje Svojom bezgraničnom Ljubavlju, Svojom prisutnošću, Svojim glasom, koji ovaj sada čuje gdje i kad god ga želi čuti. Pa je tako srce čovjeka postalo hramom, koji u sebi nosi ono najsvetije, Samoga Božanskog Gospodara, Koji je se nastanio u njemu, kao što je obećao....
AMEN
