PREPOZNAVANJE ISTINE POVLAČI ZA SOBOM DUŽNOST NJEZINA ZASTUPANJA....

U svijetu izrugivača i hulitelja Istina će teško biti sposobna sebe ustanoviti, jer oni niječu sve što je Božanske prirode i prema tome također Istinu koja dolazi od Boga. Ali svaka osoba koja zna Istinu, koja ju stoga prepoznaje, je unatoč tome obavezna nju braniti i zastupati, čak pred onima koji se uvijek žele boriti protiv Istine. Odstupiti od Istine u njihovom slučaju bi bilo isto kao pokoriti se protivniku Istine. Protiv Istine će se uvijek voditi borba, jer ona dolazi odgore.... međutim, ljudi materijalističkog uma jedino žele priznati ono što dolazi od dolje, iz svijeta, a to će uvijek proturječiti Istini. Ako će Istina biti raširena svijetom njezin zastupnik ne smije ni u kojem slučaju ljubiti svijet, niti se smije bojati ljudi koji ga žele spriječiti širiti Istinu, namjesto, tako što će se kompletno odreći svih zemaljskih prednosti, on mora radije biti voljan žrtvovati njegov život nego uskratiti Istinu ili govoriti protivno njegovu uvjerenju. Ovom zahtjevu doista nije lagano za udovoljiti; naposlijetku, čovjekov fizički život je i dalje previše vrijedan da bi se od njega odustalo poradi Istine koju bližnja ljudska bića ne žude i koja će više vjerojatno biti odbačena. A ipak to je očekivano od strane Boga čim je On smatrao ljude dostojnima primiti Istinu od Njega. Prepoznavanje Čiste Istine je također obaveza njezina predavanja dalje i obavještavanja neobavještene osobe o Božjoj aktivnosti. I ako ljudi tretiraju ovaj dar sa neprijateljstvom ljudsko biće ne smije postati zastrašen i plašljivo govoriti ili šutjeti, namjesto, on bi trebao neustrašivo ustati za Istinu gdje vladajuća sila zahtijeva tišinu. Jer, naposlijetku, Bog Osobno je Kojeg on zastupa.... A obaviještena osoba ne bi nikad trebala zanijekati Boga što bi, međutim, on napravio ako bi skrenuo od Istine, to jest, ako bi rekao nešto protivno onome što zna što se ne podudara sa Istinom ili neupitno dozvoljava neistini da bude raširena kada ju on prepozna kao takvu. Čim ljudsko biće niječe Boga on postaje slab, u drugu ruku, ako zagovara Istinu, pritok snage da stoji čvrsto naspram svakog neprijateljskog argumenta će mu nadoći. I on će ostati pobjedonosan nad podrugivačima i huliteljima koji jedino podupiru [[(i osjećaju naklonost spram)]] laži i prema tome se uvijek bore protiv Istine.

AMEN

Recognising the truth is a duty to advocate it....

In a world of scorners and blasphemers the truth will hardly be able to establish itself, for they negate everything of a divine nature and therefore also the truth which comes from God. But every person who knows the truth, who thus recognises it, is nevertheless duty bound to advocate it, even towards those who always want to fight against the truth. To deviate from the truth with them would be the same as complying with the adversary of truth. The truth will always be fought, for it comes from above.... however, materialistically minded people only want to acknowledge that which comes from below, from the world, and that will always contradict the truth. If the truth is to be spread on earth its advocate may by no means love the world, nor may he fear people who want to prevent him from spreading the truth, instead, by completely renouncing all earthly advantages, he must rather be willing to sacrifice his life than to withhold the truth or speak contrary to his conviction. This requirement is indeed not an easy one to comply with; after all, a person's physical life is still too valuable as to give it up for the sake of a truth which is not desired by fellow human beings and is more likely to be rejected. And yet it is expected by God as soon as He has deemed people worthy to receive the truth from Him. Recognising the pure truth is also a commitment to pass it on and to inform an uninformed person of God's activity. And if people treat this gift with hostility the human being must not become intimidated and speak fearfully or keep silent, instead, he should even fearlessly stand up for the truth where the ruling power demands silence. It is, after all, God Himself he advocates.... And the informed person should never deny God which, however, he would do were he to divert from the truth, that is, were he to say something against better knowledge which does not correspond to truth or unquestioningly allows untruth to be spread when he recognises it as such. As soon as the human being denies God he becomes weak, on the other hand, if he endorses the truth, the flow of strength to stand firm against every hostile argument will come to him. And he will remain victorious over the scorners and blasphemers who only favour lies and will therefore always fight the truth....

Amen
