The divinity of Jesus is so often the controversial question which people who believe in Him as the son of God are asked to answer.... Once again, this question can only be answered correctly by people of faith; Jesus' divinity can be explained to them, whereas people without faith cannot muster any understanding for it since they neither recognize the existence of a wise, omnipotent and loving deity nor His activity. And thus it will also remain incomprehensible to them that God can let Himself, i.e. His spirit, emanate to people as well as to all beings which emerged from Him.... They do not realize that there is a connection between the creator and His creatures which can never ever end. Nor do they realize that this deity, Which can be always and everywhere, can also shelter Itself in all its fullness in a human external form.... that a human being can thus be permeated by His love, as it were.... permeated by His strength.... And that this human being then harbours so much divinity within himself that his whole being is also permeated by the spirit of God and now his truly divine nature allows him to become a child of God. And this will remain incomprehensible to him as long as he sets himself apart from the teaching of Christ, i.e. as long as he does not take the path that Christ took on earth.... the path of love.... For wisdom only comes through love. The loving person grasps this immediately, he needs no lengthy explanation because the power from God, His spirit, is already at work in him, because he is in the circuit of the divine emanation of love and consequently the effect of a right life of love is also understandable to him. Jesus Christ, however, led such a life of love on earth, and consequently He also stood in the midst of God's emanation of love.... He was seized by God's infinite love, He was radiated through by His spirit, and a strong will flowed through Him.... But love, spirit, power and will are the essence of the eternal deity.... Thus Jesus, too, had become like God, He was His image, He Himself was a divine being, He was the son of God Who could no longer be regarded as an individual being but was completely one with His father from eternity, Who recognized His unity with His father, strived for complete union with Him and, through His life of love, had already found union on earth....

TranslatorJezusova Božanstvenost je pogosto sporno vprašanje, na katerega pa se daje odgovor ljudem, kateri verujejo v Njega kot Božjega Sina.... Na to vprašanje se lahko odgovori samo tistim ljudem, kateri so v veri. Njim se dejansko lahko razloži Jezusovo Božanstvenost, medtem ko si ljudje brez vere glede tega ne morejo pridobiti nikakršnega razumevanja; oni namreč niti ne priznajo obstoja modrega, vsemogočnega in polnega Ljubezni Božanstva, kakor tudi ne Njegovega delovanja. In tako jim je nedojemljivo tudi to, da bi Bog lahko Samega Sebe, se pravi Njegovega Duha seval k ljudem, kakor tudi k vsemu bistvu, katero je nastalo iz Njega.... Oni ne dojamejo, da med Stvarnikom in Njegovo stvaritvijo obstaja veza, katera pa se nikoli ne more končati. Oni ne razumejo niti tega, da se to Božanstvo, Katero je vedno in povsod, lahko ravno tako v vsej polnosti zakrije v zunanji človeški obliki (Kološanom 1:19; 2:9).... da je na ta način človek tako rekoč obsevan z Njegovo Ljubeznijo, prežet z Njegovo močjo.... In da potem ta človek v sebi zakriva toliko Božanskega, da je tudi njegovo celotno bitje prežeto z Božjim Duhom. Sedaj pa mu njegovo v resnici Božansko bitje omogoča, da postane Božji otrok. To pa mu bo ostalo nerazumljivo, vse dokler je izven Kristusovega učenja oz. dokler ne gre po poti, po kateri je šel Kristus na Zemlji.... po poti Ljubezni.... ker modrost prihaja samo preko Ljubezni. Z Ljubeznijo aktiven človek to takoj dojame; on ne potrebuje nikakršne druge razlage, ker Božja moč – Njegov Duh že deluje v njem, ker se on nahaja v toku Božanskega Ljubezenskega sevanja in mu je zaradi tega razumljiv učinek pravilnega življenja v Ljubezni. In Jezus Kristus je na Zemlji živel takšno življenje Ljubezni in On se je zaradi tega ravno tako nahajal sredi Božjega Ljubezenskega sevanja.... On je bil zajet z neskončno Božjo Ljubeznijo; bil je prežet z Njegovim Duhom in preplavljala Ga je močna volja.... Torej Ljubezen, Duh, moč in volja, to je Bitje večnega Božanstva.... Tako je Jezus postal podoben Bogu. On je bil Njegova Slika; On Osebno je bil Božansko Bitje. On je bil Božji Sin, Katerega pa se več ne more smatrati za posamezno bitje, ampak je bil popolnoma Eno s Svojem Očetom večnosti; Kateri je prepoznal Svojo pripadnost d0 Svojega Očeta, težil k popolnemu zedinjenju z Njim in preko Svojega življenja v Ljubezni že na Zemlji našel to zedinjenje.
