Noben človek nima moči, da bi se sam odkupil od krivde svojih grehov.... za to vedno potrebuje Odrešenikovo božansko ljubezen. Prav tako človek sam nima moči, da bi drugim ljudem odpustil grehe.... le, če v svoji službi deluje kot predstavnik večnega Božanstva na Zemlji in če je srce drugega človeka povsem iskreno, torej če ta nebeškega Očeta prosi za odpuščanje v popolnem zavedanju svojega greha. Zato je vedno le volja zemeljskega otroka odločilni dejavnik, delovanje Božjega predstavnika pa je le simbolično znamenje dejanja milosti....
Zato bo izpovedovanje grehov vedno popolnoma brez vrednosti, četudi se zdi, da je dolžnost izpolnjena, če istočasno izpovedovanja grehov ne pošljemo božjemu Očetu v iskreno molitev za odpuščanje. In namesto tega bo takšna skesana izpoved greha Očetu prinesla resnično odpuščanje te krivde tudi brez tega obreda.
Ljudje se pogosto ne zavedajo več, kako daleč so od resničnega Božanstva, čeprav izpolnjujejo vse zahteve, ki jim jih daje zemeljska Cerkev.... Kar bi morala biti najgloblja želja srca, je postalo popolnoma mehanično dejanje.... In zato tudi takšno izpolnjevanje dolžnosti ne more biti vedno enako blagoslovljeno.... Srca morajo najti Boga, pred tem je treba vzpostaviti tesen stik s Stvarnikom in Odrešenikom, potem bo Gospod poskrbel za svoje zemeljske otroke in jim zagotovil obilje milosti, tako da se bodo Njemu vedno bolj približevali in kmalu ne bodo več želeli živeti brez svojega Odrešenika na Zemlji.
Vendar mora vsak sam narediti prvi korak in vsakdo ve, kdaj je grešil.... Tako kot je sam našel greh, mora zdaj najti tudi notranjo kontemplacijo.... Če prepozna greh, se ga bo naučil tudi sovražiti, nato pa pride kesanje in želja, da bi se osvobodil krivde.... v tem primeru pa bo njegova molitev za odpuščanje prihajala iz srca in bo dosegla tudi uho tistega, ki edini zaradi svoje velike ljubezni lahko izbriše vso krivdo....
Amen.
PrevajalciNo human being is given the means to redeem himself from his guilt of sin.... he will always require the divine Saviour's love for this. Neither has a person himself the power to forgive other people's sins.... only if he acts in his ministry as a representative of the eternal Deity on earth and the other person's heart is utterly sincere, that is, if the latter appeals to the heavenly Father for forgiveness in complete realisation of his sin. Hence, the earthly child's will is only ever the decisive factor, and the action of God's representative is merely a symbolic sign of the act of grace.... Therefore, the act of confession of one's sins will therefore also always be utterly useless, even if a duty has apparently been fulfilled, if the same confession of sins is not sent to the divine Father in a most heartfelt prayer for forgiveness at the same time. And, alternatively, such a remorseful confession of sins to the Father will also result in true forgiveness of this sin without this ceremony. People are often no longer aware of how distant they are from the actual Deity, even though they comply with all expectations imposed on them by the church on earth.... Something that should be a sincerely heartfelt requirement has become an entirely mechanical act.... And thus, such compliance with duties cannot always result in the same blessing.... People's hearts must find God, the intimate contact with the Creator and Redeemer must be established first, then the Lord will provide His earthly children with an abundance of grace, so that they will come ever closer to Him and soon no longer want to live without their Saviour on earth. However, the person must take the first step.... everyone knows when he has sinned.... And just as he has found sin by himself, he must also find inner reflection.... if he recognises his sin, he will also learn to abhor it, and then follow remorse and the wish to be released from the guilt.... but in that case his prayer for forgiveness will come from the heart and will also reach the ear of the One Who alone redeems all guilt on account of His great love....
Amen
