About the origin of evil....

Surely you don't believe that I will instruct you wrongly if you so sincerely appeal to Me for truth. Remember My Words 'If you, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children.... how much more shall I give My spirit to them that ask Me?....' Hence you do not write down your own thoughts but they are given to you by My spirit, and always in a way so that you can also understand the meaning, so that you need not fear that you are being misled. The information you receive from above has to be clear and understandable for everyone, it must not include contradictions and completely openly describe My nature so that not even the slightest doubt will arise in you.... You, who live on earth as a human being, are the spiritual beings which once fell away from Me.... Your thinking became confused due to your apostasy from Me, you accepted all evil characteristics from My adversary.... Your nature became ungodly, thus it was in contradiction to Mine.... These ungodly qualities had to be eliminated from you again, which was achieved by the infinitely long path through the creations. Hence you had already attained a certain degree of maturity when you were allowed to incarnate on earth. But then, in your state of awareness, you also realised.... with good will.... your great distance from Me and therefore had to overcome your bad characteristics yourselves which, however, I Myself had not implanted in you but which, as a result of your apostasy from Me through My adversary's influence, were still inherent in you.... you had to bear the consequences since you voluntarily accepted that which is evil from My adversary.... This truth will irrevocably remain.... I Myself certainly created you such that you were able to feel what was good and what was bad.... I Myself created you such that you were able to desire good as well as bad.... But I did not compel you to accept evil within yourselves, nevertheless you desired it with the result that you still incorporate all evil instincts within yourselves in earthly life which My adversary once transferred onto you, and that you have to fight against and finally prevail over them.... You cannot assume that I Myself was the origin of evil, otherwise you would have to regard the whole plan of Salvation as a defective piece of work although it was, in fact, a work of supreme perfection. At no time ever can something originate from Me which I classify as a sin against Me. Consequently, if you have sinned you must have violated My law of eternal order and you must.... as far it is possible for you.... atone for your sin in earthly life yourselves. But you can never say that I Myself created you the way you are now as a human being.... if you refer to the flaws and vices you have to fight against. This contradiction is so obvious that you should have recognised it as such and rejected it. Indeed, I created the human being but the essence is the soul which was already able to repel many ungodly qualities during the infinitely long process before. It is the once fallen original spirit which still has to bear the consequences of its apostasy until it is redeemed from its original sin, but which nevertheless has to deal with the cravings My adversary implanted in it in order to completely unite itself with Me, its Father of eternity, from Whom it once emerged in a supremely perfect state.... My Word from above is truly given to you such that it is comprehensible to you, and nothing else is expected of you other than that you accept it as truth.... Yet I wisely left the scribe in ignorance of the Scriptures so as not to cloud his perception and only to transcribe that which I consider of great significant in view of the end, because precisely these questions will be the cause of heated discussions. However, it should not be underestimated that people rather choose to believe in a supremely perfect God and that every virtuous person feels repulsed to imagine God as the bearer of evil too.

The point is that I don't want to gain worldly scholars but those who are of good will. But how can the many quotations be explained from which the reader derives the impression that I Myself can be compared with evil.... This is a satanic question and an opportunity where he can most easily slip in.... and the human being's will only too gladly fits in with his will.... No one else is better suited to being of assistance to him than My John when Satan asked him the same question.... (Bishop Martin, chapter 197-198) And thus My John will now get to work by igniting a bright light for you which no-one will be able to extinguish. He will explain the contradiction to you which, however, is no contradiction.... All His beings emerged from God, therefore he did too, the greatest and most powerful spirit, whom He created for Himself in order to possess a mirror image of Himself into which He was able to constantly radiate His strength of love and which was also returned. Hence He created an image of Himself which He endowed with all abilities so that there was no difference between Him and the created work other than the fact that He Himself was the source of strength but His creation was the recipient of strength. Therefore the first-created spirit.... Lucifer or the bearer of light.... was also 'emanated strength' which was externalised by God as the first visible being and which afterwards also remained visible for all successive beings until his fall. However, it was not yet God's opposite pole, for it neither possessed anti-divine characteristics nor anti-divine feelings, instead it was aglow with burning love for Him sharing the same will as God's will. Here, too, satanic cunning is instantly recognizable: the fact that he transfers the moment of apostasy from God to the act of creation in order to portray God as being responsible and himself as being 'created in this way'. After all, think about this seriously: How can an opposite spirit to God.... hence one which is different from God Himself.... not be called anti-divine? In other words, how can a true opposite.... thus being different than God Himself.... not be called ungodly? Lucifer only became His opposing spirit after an incredibly long time.... when, motivated by the host of created original spirits, he began to change his will and thinking capacity.

Yet this infinitely long act of beatitude preceded his apostasy and these ungodly characteristics emerged out of him, and it was not that God had placed them into the created being, which could only have been created as God's mirror image.... This advice, too, was necessary in order to provide utter clarification that it was not God Who was the source of sin and that, without any doubt whatsoever, His works emerged from His love and therefore could not have been anything else but perfect.... i.e. good in supreme perfection. You must be able to understand the revelations from above, or you must assume that you are already externally influenced if something incomprehensible is offered to you. For God conveys His Word to Earth in order to enlighten you, and only where you really receive light will you also be able to recognise God Himself as the source, but then you will also know for certain that you are living in truth.... because He will not leave those in spiritual darkness who entrust themselves to Him and appeal to Him to receive the truth....

Amen

O PORIJEKLU ZLA....

Kad tako iskreno molite za istinu, nećete valjda vjerovati kako vas krivo podučavam. Sjetite se Mojih riječi: ako vi, koji ste loši, svojoj djeci pružate dobre darove.... ukoliko više ću Ja dati Moj duh onima koji me u svezi toga mole.... Dakle, nisu to vaše vlastite misli koje zapisujete, nego vam ih Moj duh ‚unosi’ [[= utječe]], i to uvijek onako da možete shvatiti smisao, tako da se ne morate bojati da ćete biti krivo navedeni [[ili ‚zavedeni’]]. To što dobijate od gore, treba biti jasno i svima razumljivo, ne treba u sebi sadržavati oprečnosti, i Moje biće [[= suštinu]] vam treba predstavljati skroz razotkriveno, kako vam se ne bi pojavila ni najmanja dvojba....

Vi, koji kao ljudi boravite na Zemlji, ste duhovno koje se jednom odmetnulo od Mene.... Vašim odmetanjem od Mene poremetilo vam se razmišljanje, od Mog protivnika posvojili ste sve loše osobine, čiji izvor nisam bio Ja Sâm, već Moj protivnik.... Vaše biće postalo je nebožansko, dakle našlo se u antagonizmu prema Meni.... Te nebožanske osobine morale su biti odstranjene iz vas, čemu je služio beskrajno dug prolazak kroz stvaranje. Vi ste dakle već dospjeli do određene zrelosti kad ste se uspjeli utjeloviti na Zemlji. Međutim tada, pri stanju svijesti, uz dobru volju, spoznali ste isto tako i veliku udaljenost od Mene, i time ste morali sve svoje loše osobine prevazići sâmi, a koje nisam Ja Sâm ugradio u vas, nego su kao posljedica vašeg odmetanja od Mene, putem djelovanja Mog protivnika još bile u vama.... vi sami ste morali snositi posljedice toga, pošto ste vi sami slobodnom voljom prihvatili zlo/loše od Mog protivnika.... Ova istina ostaje neosporna.... Ja Osobno vas jesam doduše stvorio takve da ste mogli osjetiti/osjećati što je bilo dobro a što loše [[= zlo]].... Ja Osobno vas jesam stvorio tako da možete težiti kako dobrom tako i lošem.... Ali Ja vam nisam dao povoda da u sebi morate prihvatiti loše, međutim vaša žudnja je bila tako usmjerena, i posljedica toga je to da u zemaljskom životu u sebi još imate sve loše [[= zle]] nagone, koje je Moj protivnik nekoć prenio na vas, protiv kojih se morate boriti i na koncu i pobjediti.... Mene Samoga ne možete smatrati uzrokom zla, inače biste čitav plan stvaranja morali smatrati fušerajem [[bad work]], koji je međutim bilo djelo vrhunske savršenosti.

Nešto što bi Ja nazvao grijehom protiv Mene, ne može nikako u Meni imati svoje porijeklo. Kad ste dakle sagriješili, time ste morali pogaziti Moj zakon vječnog reda, i morali ste svoj grijeh.... koliko je to u vašoj moći.... sami otplatiti zemaljskim životom. Ali nikako ne možete reći da sam vas Ja stvorio takve kakvi ste vi sada kao čovjek.... ako time mislite na greške i poroke s kojima se imate boriti. Ta je oprečnost tako upadljiva, da ste je kao takvu morali prepoznati i odbiti. Sigurno je da Ja jesam stvorio čovjeka, međutim ono što je pravo je duša, koja se već uspjela lišiti dosta [[toga]] neduhovnoga tijekom [[tog]] prethodnog beskrajno dugog ‘hoda’. Pra-duh je ono što je nekoć palo i mora snositi posljedice svog otpadanja [[= odmetništva]], sve dok ne bude oslobođen svoje iskonske krivnje, ali i pored toga mora izaći na kraj sa požudama koje su u njega postavljene od strane Mog protivnika, kako bi se mogao potpuno spojiti sa Mnom, svojim Ocem od vječnosti, iz Kojeg je proizišao u vrhunskoj savršenosti.

Moja riječ od gore uistinu vam biva davana tako da vam je razumljiva, i od vas se ne zahtijeva ništa drugo, nego da ju preuzmete kao istinu.... Međutim, Ja sam namjerno pisatelju znanje glede spisa držao u tajnosti, kako ne bi pomutio njegov pogled i kako bi u odnosu na kraj pisao samo ono što Ja smatram za važno, jer upravo ta pitanja će postati predmetom žestokih debata. Ali jedna stvar ne smije biti previđena, da se ljudi radije odlučuju vjerovati u jednog Boga koji je sasvim savršen, i da svaki dobar čovjek osjeća odbojnost prema tome da si zamišlja Boga kao uzročnika [[= kliconošu]] zla. I ne radi se o tome da želim pridobiti svjetski mudre, nego one čija je volja dobra/ispravna. A kako objasniti mnoga mjesta u spisima, iz kojih čitatelj može izvesti to da Ja Osobno mogu izazivati zlo.... To je sotonska prilika, gdje on najbolje može ‚uskočiti’.... i jako često se ljudska volja ovdje podudara sa njegovom.... Nitko nije u stanju, ‘poslužiti’ ga onako kako je to učinio Moj Ivan kad mu je Sotona postavio isto pitanje.... (Biskup Martin, 197-198, Jakob Lorber) Isto tako je Moj Ivan sada na djelu, kako bi vama ljudima upalio svjetlo koje nitko ne može ugasiti. I on će vam sada objasniti i proturječje koje ustvari nije proturječje....

(17.1.1965) Iz Boga su proizašla sva Njegova bića, dakle i on, najveći i najmoćniji duh, kojega je On Osobno stvorio, kako bi u njemu imao odraz Sebe Sâmoga, u koga bi neprekidno mogao emitirati silu Svoje ljubavi i od koga bi tu istu silu dobivao nazad. On Si je dakle stvorio Svoju sliku i priliku koju je isto tako opremio sa svim sposobnostima, tako da između Njega i stvorenog djela nije bilo razlike osim što je On Sâm bio izvor sile, a Njegovo stvorenje prijemnik sile. Dakle prvostvoreni duh.... Lucifer ili Svjetlonoša.... isto je bio emitirana sila, koja je kao prvo, vidljivo biće od Boga bilo postavljeno/izloženo, koje je onda za sva sljedeća bića bilo ostalo vidljivo sve do njegovog pada. Ali još nije bilo suprotan pol Bogu, jer niti je posjedovalo Bogu suprotne atribute niti osjećaje protivne Bogu, nego je bilo u žarkoj ljubavi prema Njemu, i njegova volja je bila usmjerena isto kao i Moja [[= Božja volja]].

Dakle i ovdje je prepoznatljiva sotonska lukavština kojom on moment odmetanja od Boga prebacuje u čin stvaranja, kako bi baš Boga predstavio kao odgovornog i sebe samoga kao ‚tako stvorenoga’. Jer ozbiljno si razmislite: kako može Bogu nasuprotan duh.... koji je dakle drugačiji nego Bog.... ne biti nazvan Bogu-protivnim? [[= 'ispravna suprotnost'.... koja je dakle drugačija nego Sâm Bog.... ne biti 'nebožanska']] On je postao Njegovim protu-duhom tek nakon nezamislivo dugog vremena.... nakon što je potstaknut mnoštvom stvorenih pra-duhova počeo izvrćati svoju volju i sposobnost razmišljanja. Međutim, to vrijeme vječne blaženosti prethodilo je njegovom padu, i nebožanske osobine rođene su iz njega, a nije ih Bog umetnuo u stvoreno biće, koje je moglo biti stvoreno baš i jedino kao Božja slika i prilika.

Ova uputa bila je nužna, kako bi se stekla potpuna transparentnost o tome da Bog nije bio inicijator grijeha i da su Njegova djela bez ikakve sumnje bila rođena iz Njegove ljubavi i da stoga nisu mogla biti drugačija nego savršena.... znači dobra u najvišem stupnju savršenstva. Vi morate razumjeti otkrovenja od gore, inače ako vam se nudi nešto nerazumnjivo već morate računati sa stranim uplitanjem/utjecajem. Jer Bog zbog toga na zemlju usmjerava Svoju riječ da bi vam dao svjetlo i samo tamo gdje stvarno primate svjetlo, možete Boga prepoznati kao pokretača, a tad znate i to da ste sigurno u istini.... jer On ne ostavlja u mraku duha one koji Mu se povjere i koji Ga mole da im pruži istinu.

AMEN
