"Living christians"....

It is not enough that you outwardly identify yourselves as christians, that you belong to an ecclesiastical organisation, that you do what it demands of you in terms of outward appearances and customs, but only one thing is necessary: that you live out the teaching which every ecclesiastical organisation represents and also presents to its members.... that you fulfil the divine commandments of love which the 'founder of the church' Himself gave you on earth. He, Who Himself led a life of love on earth, He also made love the fundamental principle of those who want to belong to His church, for His church is not a dead structure, His church is spirit and life, His church is built on a living faith which can only be gained through a life of love.... Love and faith.... these are the characteristics of the church which Jesus Christ Himself founded on earth, for love and faith allow for the 'working of the spirit' which is the rightful emblem of His church.... And as long as you humans cannot exhibit this emblem you are only blind followers of the organisation you have joined, but you are not 'living' christians, you are not followers of the church of Christ.... And then you are in great danger of losing your soul, which has to pass a test of will on earth and cannot pass it if it does not draw strength from above, but which requires a living faith. Only living faith.... the result of unselfish neighbourly love.... establishes the intimate connection with the source of strength from eternity, from Whom every human being requires a supply of strength if he wants to reach his aim on earth: to become perfect as the father in heaven is perfect.... You humans take it very easy with your earthly task; you believe you are doing enough if you dutifully fulfil what is prescribed to you by people who claim to be 'God's representatives'.... You do not even think about whether they are really God's representatives or have only made themselves into such.... You do not even think about whether you are being instructed in the truth. You unhesitatingly believe everything that is presented to you as truth but you don't examine the origin of it, and you don't turn to Him, Who is the eternal truth Himself, in order to ask Him to guide you into truth.... You do not ask for the truth, otherwise you would truly also be introduced.... You don't take your earthly task seriously enough and believe that you are doing God's will by fulfilling prescribed actions and commandments which, however, were never given to you humans by God Himself.... But you pay no attention to God's commandments or you would make an effort to live a life of love and then you would automatically take the right path which leads upwards.... It is love alone which God requires of you; it is love alone which gives you the right to feel that you belong to His church, for love alone produces a living faith.... the rock on which Jesus Christ built His church. Therefore, only call yourselves christians when you have fulfilled Christ's commandments and thereby become true followers of His church.... And you can achieve this in every ecclesiastical organisation, for each one teaches you love.... But don't give priority to humanly issued commandments which are not fruitful and are unable to give your soul eternal life. For everything is worthless which is not based on love.... And you would discover the truth of this by yourselves if only you were serious about your duty towards God.... But as long as you only formally fulfil ecclesiastical demands your soul will always remain on the same level, it will not achieve any progress on earth, for this is only achieved through unselfish neighbourly love which, however, also irrevocably entails recognition: Enlightenment of spirit.... so that the human being will then no longer be satisfied with a formal christianity but will seriously strive for perfection, which he will then also certainly achieve...._>Amen

“ŽIVI KRŠĆANI”....

Nije dovoljno da se na van izjašnjavate kao Kršćani, da pripadate nekoj crkvenoj organizaciji, da činite ono što od vas zahtijevaju vanjština i običaji, nego je samo jedno potrebno: da živite učenje koje zastupa svaka crkvena organizacija a koje i servira svojim članovima.... da ispunjavate Božanske zapovijedi Ljubavi koje vam je “Osnivač crkve” Sam na Zemlji dao. On, Koji je Sam vodio život Ljubavi na Zemlji, On je Ljubav i učinio glavnim principom onih koji žele pripadati Njegovoj crkvi, jer Njegova crkva nije mrtvo zdanje, Njegova crkva je Duh i Život, Njegova crkva je sagrađena na živoj vjeri koja može biti zadobijena jedino putem života u Ljubavi....

Ljubav i vjera.... to su značajke crkve koju je Isus Krist Sam osnovao na Zemlji, jer Ljubav i vjera dopuštaju “djelovanje Duha” koje je istinski zaštitni znak Njegove crkve.... I sve dok vi ljudi ne možete prikazati taj zaštitni znak, vi ste slijepi sljedbenici organizacije kojoj ste se priključili, no niste “živi” Kršćani, niste sljedbenici Kristove crkve .... I onda ste u velikoj opasnosti da vam se duša izgubi, koja na Zemlji treba proći probu volje a nju ne može položiti, ako od gore ne dobija snagu, koja međutim za preduvjet ima živu vjeru.

Tek živa vjera.... posljedica nesebične Ljubavi prema bližnjemu.... uspostavlja duboku vezu sa Izvorom snage od Vječnosti, od Kojeg svaki čovjek treba dostavu snage želi li postići svoj cilj na Zemlji: postati savršen kao što je Otac na nebu savršen.... Vi ljudi vrlo olako uzimate vaš zemaljski zadatak; vjerujete da činite dovoljno kad po obavezi ispunjavate što vam je propisano od strane ljudi koji se izdaju za “Božje zastupnike”.... Vi ni ne razmišljate o tome da li su ovi uistinu Božji zastupnici ili su se pak sami time učinili.... ne razmišljate ni o tome da li ste onda uopće podučavani u Istini.

Lakoumno vjerujete sve što vam se servira kao Istina a ne provjeravate porijeklo toga i ne obraćate se Onome Koji jeste Sama Vječna Istina moleći Ga da vas On uvede u Istinu.... Vi ne težite za Istinom, inače bi i bili uvedeni.... Ne uzimate dovoljno ozbiljno vaš zemaljski zadatak, i vjerujete da ispunjavate Božju volju kroz ispunjavanje propisanih postupaka i zapovijedī koji međutim ljudima nikada nisu dani od strane Samoga Boga.... A Božje zapovijedi ne pazite, inače bi se potrudili živjeti život u Ljubavi, i tad biste automatski dospjeli na pravi put koji vodi uvis....

Ljubav je jedino što Bog od vas zahtijeva; samo Ljubav je ono što vam daje pravo da se osjećate pripadno Njegovoj crkvi, jer samo Ljubav rezultira živom vjerom.... stijenom na kojoj je Isus Krist sazidao Svoju crkvu. Stoga se nazivajte Krišćanima tek onda kada ispunjavajte Kristove zapovijedi i time ste postali pravi sljedbenici Njegove crkve.... A to možete postići u svakoj crkvenoj organizaciji, jer svaka vas naučava Ljubavi....

No ne stavljajte u prvi plan ljudski ustanovljene zapovijedi koje nisu plodonosne i vašoj duši ne mogu dati vječni život. Jer sve što nije utemeljeno u Ljubavi beznačajno je.... I vi biste automatski prodrli u istinitost (toga), samo kad biste bili ozbiljni po pitanju vaše obaveze prema Bogu.... No sve dok samo formalno ispunjavate crkvene zahtjeve, vaša će duša tapkati na istom stupnju (razvoja), ona na Zemlji neće postizati napredak, jer on se postiže jedino putem nesebične Ljubavi prema bližnjemu, koja međutim nezaobilazno za sobom povlači i spoznaju: prosvjetljenje Duha.... tako da se čovjek više ne zadovoljava samim formalnim Kršćanstvom nego ozbiljno stremi savršenstvu, koje će onda sigurno i postići....

AMEN
