Characteristic of the living christian....

As long as My spirit is not yet working in you, you are merely followers or formal christians, for My spirit's working is the characteristic of the church which I Myself founded on earth. Only then will you belong to this church founded by Me when My spirit can express itself in you, that you hear its voice, that you are thus awakened to life, which proves My spirit's working in and on you. And the sign of My spirit's working is that you are alive, that you have become true christians, thus also true doers, not just hearers of My word. A dead christian does not have these signs, he goes about his life, he will hardly speak of Jesus Christ and His act of salvation, he will also not make an effort to live a life of action; yet he calls himself a christian because he has not yet understood what I mean by this. A christian is a true follower of Jesus, a person who makes an effort to live his earthly life like Him, which consisted of unceasing activity of love and an intimate bond with His father, Who was in Him. This intimate bond must first be established with Me in Jesus Christ if My spirit is to become effective, if it is to be able to express itself by gaining influence over all thinking, willing and acting. Then the human being will be guided by My spirit, for I express Myself through the spirit and make My will known to the human being. Thus the human being must live a second life next to his earthly life, he must strive spiritually, for which a formal christian has no time because he is imprisoned by the world which does not release him. The spiritual christian lives his earthly life on the side and the spiritual life fills his purpose in life, for he is impelled by the spirit from Me which never lets him rest. And thus every spiritual thought, every bond with Me, every impulse to do a good deed, every deeper understanding of spiritual knowledge and ever new desire for it is all to be regarded as 'working of the spirit', and all this also characterises a living christian, whereas the formal christian is completely lacking, for he is not so much moved by the life of his soul as by the life of his body, and spiritual bonds are alien to him because they are inconvenient to him and he therefore avoids them. And therefore he is a dead christian who will not be able to prove his 'life' when he is put to this test. For a person is not a dead christian with impunity, and one day it will become apparent how deep he is still in the grave, how darkened his spirit is and how far away he himself still is from being a true follower of Jesus Christ. And that is why only a few people have the right to call themselves christians, because most of them are not, even if they belong to ecclesiastical organisations but do not honour them. For in all these organizations people can take the right path of following Jesus in order to then also possess the characteristic of My church as true christians: the awakened spirit which now guides and teaches them, which brightly illuminates their path of life and which truly has an effect on the human being in the best sense, because it is My spirit which expresses itself in you and I also truly only give you what is good for you and your souls. And every one of you can awaken the spirit in himself to life if he only seriously wants to fulfil his earthly task, if he seriously wants to unite with Me, Whom he recognizes as his God and father and establishes this intimate union through loving activity.... For anyone who practices love establishes unity with Me, Who is love Myself, and My spirit will radiate through him and give him light.... He will now only ever be active in My will and gain eternal life while still on earth....

Amen

OBILJEŽJE ŽIVOG KRŠĆANINA....

Dok god Moj Duh u vama još ne djeluje, toliko dugo ste vi samo nazivni, tj. formalni Kršćani, jer djelovanje Moga Duha obilježje je crkve koju sam Ja Sâm utemeljio na Zemlji. Vi pripadate toj od Mene utemeljenoj crkvi tek kad se Moj Duh u vama može očitovati tako da opažate Njegovo obraćanje (vama), da ste dakle probuđeni u život, što djelovanje Moga Duha na i u vama dokazuje. A znak djelovanja Moga Duha je da ste živi, da ste postali pravi Kršćani na djelu, što znači pravi izvršioci a ne samo slušatelji Moje Riječi.

Mrtvi Kršćanin nema ta obilježja na sebi, on prolazi kroz svoj život bez da gotovo ikada govori o Isusu Kristu i Njegovom činu spasenja, on se isto tako ne trudi voditi život djela; no on se naziva Kršćaninom, pošto još nije shvatio što Ja pod time podrazumijevam. Kršćanin je pravi sljedbenik Isusa, čovjek koji se trudi voditi isti način života koji je živio i Isus na Zemlji, koji se sastojao u neprestanom djelovanju Ljubavi i u intimnoj povezanosti s Njegovim Ocem, Koji je bio u Njemu. Ta unutarnja povezanost mora kao prvo biti uspostavljena sa Mnom u Isusu Kristu ako želite da Moj Duh u vama može postati djelotvoran, ako želite da se može izraziti tako da zadobije utjecaj na sve razmišljanje, htijenje i postupanje.

Tada je čovjek vođen Mojim Duhom, jer putem Duha Ja Sâm se izražavam i čovjeku objavljujem Moju volju. Dakle čovjek mora voditi jedan drugi život pored zemaljskog života, on mora stremiti duhovno, za što formalnom Kršćaninu ne preostaje vremena pošto je on zarobljen od strane svijeta koji ga ne pušta. Aktivni Kršćanin svoj zemaljski život živi usput, a duhovni život glavni je sadržaj njegovog života, jer njega potiče Duh iz Mene, Koji mu nikada ne da mirovati.

Tako da, svaka duhovna misao, svako povezivanje sa Mnom, svaki poticaj na dobro djelo, svako dublje razumijevanje duhovnog znanja i neprestana nova žudnja za tim, sve to može se smatrati “djelovanjem Duha”, a sve to karakterizira živog Kršćanina, dok to potpuno nedostaje formalnom Kršćaninu, jer njega ne pokreće toliko život njegove duše koliko život njegovog tijela, i duhovne veze njemu su strane, budući da su mu nelagodne i on ih zato izbjegava. I zato je on mrtvi Kršćanin koji svoj “život” neće moći dokazati kad je stavljen pred tu probu.

Jer čovjek koji je mrtvi Kršćanin ne može to biti bez posljedica, i jednom će se pokazati koliko duboko je on još u grobu, koliko je mračan njegov duh i koliko je on još udaljen od toga da bude istinski sljedbenik Isusa Krista. I stoga samo rijetki ljudi imaju pravo na to da se nazivaju Kršćanima, jer većina njih to nije, pa čak i ako pripadaju crkvenim organizacijama, no njima (time) ne čine čast. Jer u svim tim organizacijama ljudi mogu ići pravim putem sljedbeništva Isusa, da bi onda i kao pravi Kršćani posjedovali obilježje Moje crkve: probuđeni duh, koji ih vodi i uči, koji svjetlo obasjava njihov životni put i koji na istinski najbolji način djeluje na čovjeka, budući da je to Moj Duh koji se izražava u vama i Ja vam onda uistinu i dajem samo ono što je dobro za vas i vaše duše.

A u sebi probuditi duh u život može svatko od vas tko samo zbiljski želi ispuniti svoj zemaljski zadatak, tko zbiljski želi sjediniti se sa Mnom Koga priznaje kao svoga Boga i Oca i to duboko sjedinjenje uspostavlja putem djelovanja u Ljubavi.... Jer tko (god) prakticira Ljubav, taj uspostavlja sjedinjenje sa Mnom Koji sam Sâm Ljubav, i njega će Moj Duh prožeti i obdariti ga svjetlom.... On će onda uvijek samo biti aktivan u Mojoj volji i zadobiti će vječni život još na Zemlji....

AMEN
