Preface
Introduction
Axioms from:
"The Great Cosmic Teaching of Jesus of Nazareth to His
apostles and disciples, who could understand them. The life of the true
God-filled men" with explanations for the fulfillment of the eternal laws by
Gabriele, in the Great Teaching Church of the Spirit of God, talked about
and worked on using assignments, in order to make the divine in every person
shine
God is absolute. He is the Absolute Law of infinity. Since we are out
of Him, we, too, are Absolute Law in our innermost being. God is
- and we are divine. He is our origin and our goal.
In the mighty turn of time in which we live, the Spirit of God pours
the entire fullness of His truth into this world. All religions once
received parts of the eternal truth. Each one was commanded to live that
part of the truth which was given to him, so that more truth could be given
to him. Now the Spirit of truth, Christ, has made true what He, as Jesus of
Nazareth, announced: "But when the Spirit of truth comes, He will lead you
into all truth."
Who can reveal the whole truth? The One who is the truth: Christ.
The Spirit of truth is here. He has come in the prophetic word through
His teaching prophetess, our sister, Gabriele. But the whole truth is the
Absolute Law of God. In 1991, Christ revealed the Absolute Law through His
prophetess. It is written in the book entitled: "The Great Cosmic Teachings
of Jesus of Nazareth to His Apostles and Disciples who could understand them.
The life of the true God-filled men."
The teachings of the Absolute Law remind us of who we truly are. They
give us a sense of our true Being, which says: In each of us, in the depths
of the soul, is the absolute, independent and selfless being. The Absolute
Law is the origin of our true Being and our goal as man.
May he who can grasp it, grasp it.
In the Inner Spirit-of-Christ Church in Würzburg, the great Teaching
Church of the Spirit of the Christ of God, the teachings of the Absolute Law
are interpreted by our sister Gabriele, the teaching prophetess of God. She
is also the ambassadress of God, because she draws from her opened spiritual
consciousness, which lives in God. This book grew out of the axioms and the
explanations which were given for them. In it, are instructions how we, as
human beings, can apply the axioms in our daily life. This book takes by the
hand every one who wants to let himself be guided by the Spirit of truth.
On December 31, 1991, Christ revealed the following through the
prophetess of God, our sister Gabriele:
"Behold: You are living in a glorious time. It is the highest cosmic
time; for the Spirit of life, God in Me and I in Him, pour out the highest:
the Absolute Law.
I still speak through the mouth of a prophet. But know and grasp in this
hour: The soul of My instrument, your sister, lives in the direct source.
She draws from the source, receives from the source - and thus, you receive
My direct word.
Oh see: It is a time that will never come again to mankind. For when the
Absolute Law is taught in all details, then the end is at hand, the end of
materialistic time ...
The teachings out of the Absolute Law show man his inner heritage, the
eternal Being of the soul, the all-encompassing consciousness, God - your
spiritual heritage. The Inner Path leads you step by step to the Inner Life.
And the Absolute Law, given and taught out of the direct source, God, shows
you your true Being, your spiritual heritage, so that you may very gradually
know and recognize that you are truly children of the Most High ...
O see: The horn of plenty is being poured out - the Inner Path and the
Absolute Law. Recognize in this that the Absolute Law, given in all its
details, is already symbolizing the end of materialistic time. For absolute
is absolute. Beyond that there is nothing ...
Blessed is the one who matures into the inner source, into the eternal
Being ... He will no longer give from the intellect what he has acquired as
knowledge, as spiritual knowledge - he is the Being and speaks the language
of the Being, just as it is given to you in the interpretations out of the
Absolute Law. For the person, through whom I speak, interprets out of the
source of love. She speaks the law, even when I do not speak directly out of
the stream to you through the person.
And this is the way you shall be: creative, the Being. It is possible.
You have a model and an example. Do it. Follow Me, and fulfil, and you, too,
will be an example for many - the example, that is, the model; for only true
models will be able to endure on this earth."
Our sister Gabriele, herself, has gone the path of purging of soul
and person. She knows the weal and woe of being a human being, the
difficulties and problems that are a part of it. Therefore, she can also
understand us in everything and give us advice and help from her opened
spiritual consciousness. She, whose soul is consciously at home in the
eternal Being, puts the life of the heavens into our human words, insofar as
it is possible.
May this book show many more seeking people the path into their inner
being — into the kingdom of the inner being that is
our true home.
Würzburg, Germany, October, 1992
The will of God, our eternal Father, is done —
also in His Inner Spirit-of-Christ Church, the Great Teaching Church. We
gather in His name in order to receive His power more and more, so that we
again become what we are deep in our soul: cosmic beings, children of the
infinite love.
We live in a mighty time of radical change. The Spirit of God pours out
His horn of plenty. We receive the Inner Path from the level of order up to
the level of divine earnestness. Beyond that, we receive the Absolute Law
and, in this way, we may immerse into our spiritual heritage. We are allowed
to feel into the life that is deep in our soul, which is our home, and thus
experience who we truly are.
A treasure out of the heavens is given to us. If we are ready to receive
this treasure, then we will also bring it to light; for the treasure is God,
and God, the life, is in us.
If we want to come closer to God, we have to learn and apply the divine
laws again; otherwise we cannot become one with the great Spirit, God, the
Eternal, the Absolute.
We pray to God, our Father. We hear of God, our Father, from Christ,
our Redeemer, and from the spirit beings of the heavens. For many a one, God
is only a word, something abstract — they still feel
very far from Him. Why do many still feel very far from God? Because we have
not yet made ourselves aware of what God, the All-One, has given us. He gave
us immortality, because He is immortal. He gave us every cosmic radiation,
because we are His heirs. He gave Himself to us completely.
Who is God?
God is Spirit, power, streaming life. God is the light which permeates
us. God gave Himself spiritual form: the eternal Father. He is a spirit
being, as we, too, are spirit beings in the pure Being. But He is
unsurpassed in His radiation. God is thus flowing energy. On the other hand,
the eternal Father is a being, just as we, too, are divine beings in the
divine Being.
Only when we are again completely permeated by every cosmic radiation,
will we live as drops in the ocean, God, and will again be one with God, our
Father, and will be in His image.
Gabriele
I
AM the Alpha and Omega, the
beginning and the end of the material universe and the soul-realms.
In Me and with Me, you shall mature into the eternal life, where I Am in
the Father, just as you, too, are also with Me in the Father. There, there
is neither beginning nor end, because God is and we are in God. For I, the
Christ of God, raise all things to the light of truth.
I Am the life, Christ, the Son of God. The one who lets Me, the
Spirit of life, Christ, rise within him has found his spiritual heritage
again, which is his eternal life. Then the being returns home to God, the
eternal Father, because it is out of Him.
All will resurrect in Me. I will find all those who believe they are
lost. And the weak will grow strong in Me; for I Am the glory in the Father.
He, the great All-One, conveyed to Me the task to guide back into the
eternal Being all that seemed to be lost.
Explanations:
I AM the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end of the material
universe and the soul-realms.
In Me and with Me, you shall mature into the eternal life, where I Am
in the Father, just as you, too. are with Me in the Father. There, there is
neither beginning nor end, because God is and we are in God. For I, the
Christ of God, raise all things to the light of truth.
In the Inner Spirit-of-Christ Church,
the Worldwide Prophetic
Teaching Church for All People,
our sister Gabriele said about this:
Alpha and Omega.
"I Am the Alpha."
The alpha in God means the beginning of creation, of the pure
Being which took on form. God, the primordial power, breathed out - and it
was. Very gradually, spiritual suns and planets, spirit beings, animals,
plants and minerals formed out of the inexhaustible source of the primordial
power. This eternally expanding, divine heavenly mechanism is the eternal,
immortal Being - our home.
God, the power, the light, knows no beginning. God, the light and the
power, was and is eternally, because God i s .
"I Am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and
the end of the material universe and the soul-realms."
The alpha is also the beginning for the fall-planes. Through
the fall, soul-realms and matter came into being. Through the fall-thought,
parts of the spiritual planets fell; they separated from the pure Being and
arranged themselves outside of it. Fall-beings fell with them, and with them
the nature kingdoms, too; for the life in God is a whole. The heavenly
bodies, the beings, the animals, the plants and the minerals are a part of
life. This is the unity in God. And God gave this unity to the fall-beings
to take with them on their journey all the way to matter.
God, our eternal Father, allowed the fall; for every child has his free
will. He was and is with His renegade children. His light, His power,
continued and continues to stream to them.
Everything that exists is life out of God, because God is the life. And
so God is also in density, in matter; for in matter, too, He is the
indwelling life.
Since God is in everything, God is also in the beginning, in the alpha,
and also in the end of density, in the omega.
Through Christ, His first-beheld Son, the Co-Regent of the heavens who
is one with Him, everything will be transformed and guided back into the
eternal light.
God, the streaming light, knows neither beginning nor end; for He i s
. Out of Himself, the streaming light, He came forth as a being. Out of
Himself, the streaming light, He also created us, the pure spirit beings,
His children. We are in His image, light that has become form.
God is the Father-Mother-God. In the Father-Mother-Principle lies the
great heart-magnet for children. As a result of this, He created the eternal
Being which became form, the heavens, with His children, with the spiritual
families who, in turn, live in the great family of God.
Like the Father-Mother-God, the dual-principle is the giving and the
receiving. The Father-Mother-God is the primordial Father. The duals call
themselves dual-father or dual-mother — they are the
principles out of God: the positive, the giving, the male principle, and the
negative, the receiving, the female principle.
God thus breathed the giving and the receiving into the beings, just as
He, Himself, is giving and receiving.
God breathes in and out. Infinity expands unceasingly. There is no
standstill. God continuously creates spiritual heavenly bodies. The
spiritual children come forth out of the union of the dual-principles, out
of the giving and receiving, so that the heavenly Being, our home, expands
and is populated more and more.
Dear brother, dear sister, all of us, each one of us, has a soul
within himself. When the soul purifies itself, it will again become a
light-filled being of the heavens, a spirit being.
On the way to God, we return into the primordial stream, we return to
our spiritual families, to the spiritual kin, from where we came. Our true
life is there. We belong there, and we will also be there again
— through Christ, our Redeemer.
Christ has set out to guide us back. He walked the path over this earth
to Golgotha. He gave to each soul and each human being out of his
light-potential, which guides us home. Therefore, the soul can reach the
Father only through Christ, through no other power - no matter what it calls
itself. Christ is the redeeming power, and the path back into the eternal
Being goes by way of Christ.
Christ says: "In and with Me, you shall
mature into the eternal life, where I Am in the Father."
For us, "In Me" means: to find our way to Christ, in order to
resurrect in Christ and then to live in Him.
We walk the Inner Path, from the level of order up to the level of
divine earnestness, in order to make the Redeemer-light in us shine. When we
have developed the four levels of order, will, wisdom and earnestness for
the most part, we have resurrected in Christ. Christ then leads us on to the
eternal Father.
We have to find our way into the Inner Light, to Christ. For Christ is
our way and our goal. He is the Inner Light, the Inner Life. To find our way
to Him means to find ourselves, the true self, within.
In the words "In Me and with Me, you shall
mature into the eternal life", Christ addresses each one of us,
in order to say, "Come to Me first. Find yourself in Me; then you can return
with Me into the consciousness of the eternal Being as the eternal Being."
Dear sister, dear brother, all of infinity can be in one word. How
many words, that is, gifts of infinity, do we receive from our brother and
Redeemer, Christ, so that we find our way back to the life that is within us
and unites us?
A small passage from the Absolute Law could open all heavens for us. Let
us immerse into the words of absoluteness, in order to learn again the
language of the inner being, the language of our true Being.
The language of the pure spirit being is the language of light that is
sent out and received in pictures. If we look into the words of the eternal
law, we very gradually learn the language of pictures - because our human
language, too, is a language of pictures.
Let us learn the language of the heavens. Then we understand one another
better, because we recognize who we truly are. Through this, we gain more
and more respect for our life and for our true being, which is the infinity
in eternity.
The language of the heavens is the language of love. To learn the
language of love means to understand our neighbor, to no longer belittle him
and to make ourselves aware every day that in him, too, is the positive
part, God, the eternal that cannot be burdened. God is in our neighbor - and
what is in him is also in us.
When we recognize ourselves as the son or the daughter of God, heirs to
the powers of infinity, we will also accept our neighbor in our inner being;
for we understand that he is a part of us - because God is indivisible and
is the totality in every one of us. By accepting and understanding, we
establish communication with our neighbor and, at the same time, the
connection with God. Through this, we learn the language of the Spirit, the
language of selfless love - the law of Inner Life.
Let us take two words from the sentence of the Lord, "In Me and with
Me, you shall mature into the eternal life": "mature into". What is in these
two words? Let us feel into these words. Let us allow these two words to
come up in us as pictures.
Often the Spirit of God said to us: "In the vessel of the word, lies
the meaning which alone makes it alive. Into o n e word, I put the
infinitely many facets of life, which I Am. And so the fullness, the law of
the heavens, is in one word."
Since this is so, the word of God is a treasure that wants to be brought
to light by us. With the feelers of our inner being, we can feel into the
word so that what the energy of the day brings us today to experience, to
recognize and to transform, comes up in us as a picture or sensation.
This can be very difficult when we work solely with the intellect, with
the human mind. Only when we grasp the meaning of the words with our hearts,
with our inner consciousness, will we become aware of some aspects that will
enrich us and help us progress on the path to God, to our original nature.
So what do the words "mature into" say to us?
It is the process of maturing from seed to harvest. Let us relate this
to us human beings.
The seed is the wish to come closer to God. How do we come closer to
God? We have to water this seed again and again and lavish care and
attention on the small plant that sprouts from it - until it finally becomes
a majestic plant, a majestic tree, the Inner Life of the God-filled man. And
this is how our maturing on the Inner Path takes place. When the tree bears
fruit, it shows itself in its fullness; it brings forth the law of its
species, the law of the tree.
And so we have to mature into the eternal law by working on ourselves,
in order to let the fruits of love, our heritage, become manifest.
Every human being, himself - just like every soul - determines his
own spiritual growth. Because he has free will, he decides when he gives up
his burdens, the human ways of behavior, so that the positive life, his
spiritual heritage, can develop again more and more. His spiritual
consciousness thus has to mature gradually, because the human being is
burdened.
On the other hand, nature already bears maturity within. It brings forth
its consciousness for us from within itself. It does not have to mature
first - the plant only lets become outwardly visible what already lies
within it: maturity.
The earthly forms of the powers of creation and of the children of
creation - the earth with its stones, plants and animals - will experience
transformation through the power of the Son and the power of the Father, the
primordial power.
Dear brother, dear sister, when a stirring can be felt in us - let us
remember: Nothing happens to us by coincidence, because there is no
coincidence. What we become aware of, including in the words we read - wants
to tell us something. What we feel and see in pictures speaks to us; it
draws our attention to something that is important, maybe significant, for
us today, or is a sign of admonishment. When we pay attention to this hint
from the energy of the day by actualizing it, we advance step by step on the
path of growing and maturing.
"There, there is neither beginning nor end,
because God is and we are in God."
For many, God is something abstract, something far away. Let
us now learn to feel God in us, in the word "God".
What do the two words "God is" say to us?
Let us read the words quietly and consciously. If possible, let us speak
them out loud and let the sound reverberate in us: "God is". What comes up
in us?
The "is" is the Being, eternally. God is the streaming eternal law;
He has no beginning and no end - He is eternally being.
Let us grasp the difference: God is the streaming, omnipresent law. The
Father, the form, came forth out of His law. He is a spirit being. He is
infinite and inconceivable in the fullness of His light and in His
radiation-power. He is sublime.
Where is God?
He is in every word that we speak. He is in each thought, in each
sensation, in each stirring. In everything that we do, is God, because God
is the Being, the stream of life that streams through everything and
maintains everything. God is always present. God is in each particle of our
soul, in every cell of our body. God is in every building block of matter;
God is in each movement, because God is the life.
Dear brother, dear sister, let us take it as a task to become conscious:
God is .
Wherever we go - God is. Whatever comes towards us - God is.
God is at our place of work. God is in our work. God is in our
conversations. God is always present.
He loves us. Let us trust God, and we will have confidence in Him. Let
us call on Him in every situation. A sincere request for help, and God lets
us know He is there.
God is the positive power in every problem, in every difficulty, in all
adversity. God is the pure in every sin. When we want to ask for forgiveness,
we ask God that He stand by us - and He does stand by us!
When we sin, God calls us in good time, because He is in our feelings,
sensations, thoughts, and in our words. God is always the quiet listener in
us.
He leaves us our free will. But if the child goes to God, the eternal
inner listener, then God comes alive in us and in what we are asking for,
and He helps us to solve our problems. He helps us in conversations. He
helps us every step of the way, because God is love, the giving power.
God is the Father-Mother-Principle, the creator power, also in the
nature kingdoms. When we are walking through nature, we are walking with God
and are walking through God, through His mighty stream, through nature,
which He is.
God is. When we make ourselves aware of this again and again, then it
begins to come alive in us and in our daily life, too. This task and
exercise - "God is" - can help us. For example, when we walk by a person and
we want to belittle him, we will very quickly notice an inner push which
says, "Stop, I Am in your neighbor. Link with your neighbor and you will
learn to understand Me, the life in all things - for God is."
Dear brother, dear sister, when we remember this task again and again,
when we grow into this awareness - "God is" - then we also learn to
understand ourselves. Then, we will also gain an understanding for our
fellow man and respect for the nature kingdoms.
Through the words "God is", the clear sensitivity for the good and
divine is awakened and strengthened. On the other hand, we also recognize
more quickly and in finer nuances what is not divine, the base humanness. We
learn to clearly differentiate between the egocentric and the selfless. Our
conscience gradually reacts more subtly, so that we become more sure in our
decisions.
The selfless love is the true life that is divine. We are on earth to
become divine, that is, to become selfless love. Everything that is human is
bitter. We don't always notice it; often we feel it only very late. When we
remember "God is" in the situations of the day, we become sensitive, more
sensitive to our humanness, and we learn in time that we should turn back.
"For I, the Christ of God, raise all things
to the light of the truth."
Let us look into the one word "truth". "Truth" - what does
this word say to us?
There is only one truth - and this truth is God, and God is absolute.
There is nothing to quibble about, nothing to doubt, there are no ifs or
buts - God is.
The truth is sure of itself. It does not argue, it does not dispute, it
clarifies - but it does not defend itself. It does not have to prove itself
- it is. It is independent, untouched by opinions, conceptions, theories and
points of view. The truth is and remains - irrefutable.
We can't reach for the truth in order to change it. The one who changes
it to suit himself changes himself - but never the truth.
The truth is absolute, always giving and helping. We can rely on God,
the truth. He is always there. He is always present.
In all areas of our life, wherever we may be or go - God is.
Let us become aware: God is there to help us.
The Spirit of truth wants to help and serve us. He wants us to be well.
He wants us to be healthy and stay healthy. He wants us to be happy, for He
is the happiness. God wants us to be peaceful and joyful, for He is the
peace and the joy.
Let us become more and more aware of this in our daily life. Whatever we
do, wherever we go - God is with us everywhere. God is. He loves us, He
helps us, He serves us. God wants the best for us, because He is our Father.
Where the truth is, everything is open and apparent. The truth has no
secrets, because everything is true. Only the one who has to hide the
untruth has secrets. Let us learn to be truthful in everything that we think,
say and do, then we find our way to the truth.
The word "truth" bears the entire eternal law in itself. The truth is
our spiritual heritage; for we are divine law which has become form, and
thus, the truth.
Dear brother, dear sister, let us become truthful —
truthful in our feeling, thinking, speaking and doing. Let us take this into
our earthly life:
Become truthful in everything that you think, say and do, then you will
find yourself, and find yourself in the true Self as the eternal self in
God.
When we are imbued with the truth, that is, when we are truthful
through and through, then we are also selfless, impersonal and sure. Then we
also have the strength and, from this, the courage to impersonally address
everything and speak out everything, according to the situation and the
level of consciousness of our neighbor. The truth is selflessness. It is
impersonal and also phrases everything impersonally.
In the truth is honesty, the uprightness, from which grows true
brotherliness.
Truth always unites. It excludes no person, because the truth is
unity.
Everything is united in God. When we are not truthful, then we are
outside the law, outside the truth, and separate ourselves from our neighbor.
Truth is also clarity. And the clarity, which is the truth, is always
simplicity.
The law of God is simplicity and everything simple is ingenious.
Therefore, it is the greatest.
The law, God, is the whole in all things. Let us become aware that in
a speck of dust is all of infinity. The opened level of consciousness, the
developed facet from the eternal law, finds expression in the form.
Once again, let us think about our spiritual heritage and also about
free will:
Our spiritual heritage contains free will. When we rebel against God, by
disregarding the eternal laws, then that is in free will. God will not
hinder us. By rebelling, we step out of the eternal law and create our own
laws. Just as we create them, that is how we live, how we think, how we
suffer. The pure Being, the law, is no longer able to guide us. We cut
ourselves off from the pure Being and move away from God.
God does not interfere; and He also will not interfere in this material
life, because He gave us free will. Much will change through the power of
the stars, yes, everything will be transformed by the law that we human
beings have created ourselves: What you sow, you will reap.
God is the freedom and we are His children - not vassals or servile ones.
The divine law - the free will - makes us children of God and heirs to the
eternal kingdom.
Dear brother, dear sister, let us become aware that through free will,
we will also freely return to God. We will not be forced by God to do
anything. God, our loving Father, again and again gives us, impersonally,
the strength to believe in Him, to trust Him, to feel Him, to perceive Him
and, in this way, to come nearer to His eternal law, our spiritual heritage,
until we completely fulfil the laws of God and thus return to the ocean,
God, into the eternal Being, as perfect drops. As freely as we left the
eternal Being, the eternal law, so will we also return - freely. Then, we
can move freely in eternal Being, because we have again become heirs to the
Spirit of God, freely and without coercion, and have become children of the
infinite, eternal freedom.
A few more remarks about freedom:
Man has made himself what he is today. The tools with which he formed
himself are his sensations and thoughts, his words and his deeds. Every
person decides about himself at every moment.
Our thoughts, words and deeds, our total attitude towards our fellow man
and towards our life are like rough chisels, because of our burdens. When we
fulfil the law of God more and more, then our sensations, thoughts, words
and deeds are like a finer chisel.
This means that our human thoughts are coarse. They shape us accordingly.
When we turn to the eternal law, then we become ever finer. Then we take the
finer chisels and chisel out our true Being.
We, ourselves, decide which chisels we use, the rough or the finer
chisels.
At every hour, at every minute, at every moment of the day, we decide:
either for our humanness and thus, for the demonic-satanic, in which case we
fall victim to the law of the fall, or we decide for God, and then we grow
more and more into the law of the heavens, into our spiritual heritage.
Dear brother, dear sister, "God is". When we take in this thought, we
will no longer give free rein to our human thoughts. When we link with God
again and again - and step by step fulfil what is the will of God, then we
will take the fine chisel. We become finer, because we become more noble.
Our soul becomes more beautiful because it becomes more pure.
The words "God is" want to take up communication with the highest
consciousness, God. So perhaps we experience that our state of being is
raised when we have awakened in our inner being the consciousness that "God
is". We can align better and also work better and with more concentration.
When we affirm again and again that "God is", then it is in our
consciousness that we want to come nearer to God. Indeed, He is in
everything. In each thought, in each word, in each stirring and movement -
in every moment is God. When we now bring to mind: "God is", that is, when
we make ourselves aware of this again and again, then we automatically call
up the following sentence in our inner being: " ... and I am divine."
From these two words "God is", conclusively follows: "... and I am
divine." This statement, "God is and I am divine", is consciousness, a
mighty power-source of divine energy. It touches the nondivine in our soul.
The nondivine comes into vibration more strongly. The burdens which cover
the divine, the purity of our inner being - our human wrong behavior, our
sins, our egocentricity - come into motion and make themselves noticeable.
This is how the divine - which we consciously strive for in our inner
being and also in our outer life through the impulses of the energy of the
day - shows us where the nondivine still is. For example, belittling
thoughts which come up.
Now, we should not push aside the humanness that comes up by saying,
"No, no, I don't want to do that anymore. I have decided: God is - and I am
divine." Instead, we take the chance, and grasp the negative, our human ego,
our base self; we look at it - where does it come from? - and clear it up
with Christ. When we do this, and resolve not to do it again, then the light
begins to be effective in our soul. It begins to erase what we have cleared
up, or what we have started to clear up.
This is a lawful consequence on the Inner Path. When we commit
ourselves to the Absolute Law - "God is" - then the Absolute Law shows us
our nondivineness. When we clear up the nondivine, we feel how more light
and more strength enters our consciousness. More humanness can now be
grasped and taken apart. Problems can be solved - and at the same time, we
become lighter, freer, more buoyant and move one step closer to our heavenly
Father.
When we turn to the Absolute Law, the law of sowing and reaping will
also touch us. This law of sowing and reaping is the causal law. When we
immerse in the causal law by addressing the all-law, then it shows us where
we are still nondivine. However, we have something to hold onto in the
Absolute Law. Just like a young tree is tied to a stake, we tie ourselves to
"God is", so to speak.
Nevertheless, we should be aware of the fact that when we accept the
divine law, we are obligated to clear up what comes up in us as humanness,
so that we can become what we listen to, what we read and affirm.
Devoting ourselves to the words "God is" can accomplish many a thing.
And so it is possible that because we remembered the words "God is", we are
able to carry out with joy and in concentration a job which we would
otherwise do unwillingly. What happened? At the very moment when we
remembered the words "God is" and put our sensations into these words, our
soul came into motion and more strongly into communication with God. Through
this, more power streamed to our soul. This power flowed into the body, and
the vibration of our body rose. As a result of this, it was no longer
difficult for us to concentrate, and the work was done with ease.
And so we see that when this heartfelt "God is" touches us, then the
divine comes nearer to us. At the same moment, more power streams to us. In
this, we recognize that God is present; God, our Father, always stands by us
- if we turn to Him. We can go to Him in every situation with all the things
that we encounter each day, for He loves us.
Again and again during the day, let us bring to mind these two words -
God is - then we feel the presence of God in us, and in everything we do. In
these two words lies the All, because God is the All, is the whole. "God is"
- is also the whole in us.
Let us imagine God as the light in our inner being, as the light in our
thoughts, in our words and in our actions. God is —
God is light and power. And when we say "Christ", or "Christ in me", then it
is the same as when we say "God is". For Christ in the Father is God in the
four natures of God. In these four basic powers of God, He is omnipresent in
the Father.
"God is" - when we feel this in us consciously, it expands our
consciousness. We understand more. We see more. Things open up in the
continuing development of the spiritual, dimensions which are unknown to us
as human beings and are incomprehensible, as seen from the human ego.
When we turn consciously to God, we are thankful because we
experience His presence, His help, in our life. Then it may be that we say,
"God has solved a problem in me." Yet, how does this happen? God does not
interfere directly in our life, because we have free will. We could say that
God has awakened the problem in us. He has made us aware of our faults, of
what we should clear up, in order to solve the problem, or to contribute to
its being solved.
Put in other words, in the problem, in our difficulty, God pointed out
our wrong behavior, so that we may recognize what we need to clear up so
that the problem may be solved. Or, so that we recognize what our part in it
is, if several contributed to this problem.
Thus, God makes us aware of our faults. He, Himself, does not solve our
problem. If He were to solve our problem, then we would not recognize
ourselves and would always make the same mistakes again and again.
Out of the trust in God, grows thankfulness. We show our thankfulness to
Him by actualizing daily what the energy of the day brings to us. Only
through actualization, do we find our way to God, our Father.
We will experience many situations, whether in the family, at work or
anywhere else. But God is — He is always with us. This
awareness that "God is" should take root in us. Then we have the best helper
at our side.
I Am the life, Christ, the Son of God.
The one who lets Me, the Spirit of life, Christ, rise within him has found
his spiritual heritage again, which is his eternal life. Then the being
returns home to God, the eternal Father, because it is out of Him.
Gabriele:
Dear brother, dear sister, a passage from the Absolute Law. Let us
feel into it. All of heaven is in this passage.
"I Am the life."
Aren't we, too, allowed to say this when we affirm ourselves
as the pure beings in God? For the heavenly heritage is our life, is the
compressed Being - which we, ourselves, are.
"I Am the life", says God, "in all that is." And we are the heirs to the
spiritual kingdom. We possess everything that is. It is the make-up of our
spiritual body.
"The one who lets Me, the Spirit of life,
Christ, rise within him has found his spiritual heritage again, which is his
eternal life."
The spiritual heritage consists of the seven basic powers of
God. The seven basic powers are the eternal law - the All. The law streams
through all realms, streams through all beings, streams through the nature
kingdoms, through the heavenly bodies - through all that is.
The heavenly heritage is the shining power in us. Therefore, there is no
need for a sun that shines on the pure being; the pure being, itself, is the
sun, because the divine heritage, infinity, shines in the spirit being.
First, we human beings have to experience the knowledge about the
laws of God. When we actualize (virkeliggjøre) the spiritual knowledge, we
attain wisdom. We then no longer need to ask how this or that is. We no
longer need to look for the correlations between heaven and earth. The
wisdom in God knows about all things, because the being in God is wise.
Knowledge, alone, has no wisdom; only actualized knowledge brings wisdom.
And wisdom does not ask - it knows about the divine laws, about the
correlations of the divine Being.
The Absolute Law, only heard or read, does not bring us wisdom. The
actualization of what comes towards us day after day leads us to divine
wisdom, to the recognition of all spiritual things. Only through
actualization, do we enter into our inner being, not by way of mere (kun)knowledge.
Only through actualization, do we find our way into absoluteness again; for
God, our Father, is absolute, and we are absolute, perfect beings in God.
All will resurrect in Me. I will find all those who believe they are
lost. And the weak will grow strong in Me; for I Am the glory in the Father.
Gabriele:
This paragraph should encourage (oppmuntre)us. He gives comfort. He
gives us confidence(tillit) - because God is. And we will resurrect in
Christ, because Christ in us is the light of resurrection. Each day, He
offers us what we should put into practice on this day, that is, what we
should actualize, so that the light, the Christ-light, can grow in us, so
that we can resurrect in Christ.
"I will find all those who believe they are
lost."
Nothing can be lost. No being, no speck of dust can be lost;
for in the speck of dust, in the particle of dust, is God. If one small
particle were to be lost, then infinity would not be perfect. No energy is
lost - and God is positive; He is eternally shining energy. He shines in the
speck of dust, in the grain of sand - yet this small, to us often
inconspicuous, form bears divinity in itself. So if this small thing were to
be lost, then a part of creation would no longer exist. That is impossible,
because God is.
If the smallest is safe and secure in God's care, how much more does
Christ go after every being, every human being. For the spirit being in man
possesses all the powers of the All.
The smallest is in the large, and the large is in the smallest. And this
is why nothing can be lost, because God is. He is in the smallest as He is
in the large.
In God there is no end, nothing will become nothingness. If we say that
the world comes to an end, then this means that all egocentricity will break
apart, so that the selfless, the indwelling divine power, will be released.
If we speak about the fact that man, the humanness, the ego-shell, will pass
away, will have to die, then this means that the shell has to transform, so
that the pure, the fine, the noble of the eternal spiritual being can come
to light. And it transforms because God, the Inner Life, is unending.
"And the weak will grow strong in Me ..."
Only when this is what we strive for, will we transform to
become divine, to grow strong in the divine. Whether or not we are serious
about this can be seen in our world of thoughts. When we still circle around
ourselves a lot, then we nourish our human ego. And when we nourish our
human ego, how can we find our way to God?
God does not nourish our human ego. We, ourselves, nourish, strengthen
and expand it by abusing (misbruke) the powers of God that are given to us
each day anew. We transform them into negative energy through our egocentric
way of feeling, thinking, speaking and acting; or we take energy from our
neighbor by making our neighbor dependent on us, so that he does what we
want. Then his energy flows to us, we use it for ourselves and, in the last
analysis, misuse it.
At every moment, we have the chance to recognize and grasp the
positive, the divine, the strong, in the negative, in the weakness, and to
decide for it and build upon it. The negative that we have given up will
then be gradually transformed in Christ; the weakness becomes the strength.
We always have the possibility to actualize(virkeliggjøre), to work on
the transformation of our humanness, of that which is weak. What is
important is that we do it. The doing is important.
Christ says, "And
the weak will grow strong in Me; for I Am the glory in the Father".
What happens when we refer to this statement and say, "Well, then we will
stay weak. But in the weakness is the strength. At some point the strength
will show itself." Even when we remain passive, when we continue to let the
days go by, the strength will show itself, but then, through grief, through
illness, through need, that is, through expiation. At some point - be it
after several incarnations or in the soul-realms - we will realize that we
have to go the path of repentance, of asking for forgiveness, of forgiving,
and then we should no longer do what we have recognized to be human in us.
We cannot avoid looking at our weaknesses, so that the strength in the
weakness is awakened. If we look at the weaknesses and clear up the
humanness, the weakness, then the strength, the light of the Lord,
irradiates us.
We will not attain the strength simply by waiting until the strength
comes. We have to recognize ourselves. For when we do not recognize our
faults and sins, then we will do them again and again. We have to recognize
them, go the path of clearing things up and of no longer making our mistakes.
Then the strength awakens; in the end, it is the Spirit of the Christ of God
in us; and we will find our way with Him into the glory of the Father, where
He, Christ, is.
And that is not hard on the path to God. It is only hard when we do not
believe in God, our Father, and in Christ, our Redeemer. When we do not
trust Him. It is only hard when we do not want to accept and receive our
neighbor; for only through our neighbor do we find our way to God, because
our neighbor belongs to the great unity of God. The animals, plants,
minerals and heavenly bodies are also in the great unity of God. We cannot
overlook one little spark of life and say, "Alone, I go to God." We have to
find our way to God through the person, or through the animal, or the plant
that we reject.
To become pure means to develop our eternal heritage which contains the
powers of all forms of Being in the entire All. We cannot exclude anything
from our hearts, otherwise we will not develop our heavenly heritage.
Everything that we sense, think, speak and do is of significance. For
every thought, every sensation, every feeling is a lawful process, either in
the divine law or in the causal law.
The causal law, the law of cause and effect, is the general term. We are
recorded in the law of cause and effect with our burdens. Each and every one
of us is a personal law in the causal law. Our personal law is the human ego
in all its variations.
This human ego has to be taken apart; this means, transformed, so that
we find our way into the impersonal law, God.
Let us become aware again that every feeling, every sensation, every
thought, every word and every action is a lawful process. So let us ask
ourselves: Is what we feel, sense, think, speak and do, divine or nondivine?
The divine raises us and makes us free, happy and healthy. The nondivine is
against freedom, against happiness, against health. This is why it brings us
sickness, grief, lingering illness and lack of peace.
So, at every moment we decide to either increase our personal law, our
burdens, or to become divine — whether we are aware of
this or not. In our subconscious, too, there is a constant exchange, a
communication with corresponding forces. We are also responsible for these
subcommunications.
The purpose and reason for our earthly life is to find our way out of
humanness to the divine, out of egocentricity to being linked with God, into
the Inner Life. The guiding principle for a lawful life is known to every
soul and every person. It is formulated in the Ten Commandments and in the
Sermon on the Mount.
When we fulfil the Ten Commandments and the Sermon on the Mount step by
step, then we find our way from the conscious mind to the subconscious. We
will suddenly be aware of what we had not been aware of, so that we can
clear it up in a conscious way. We have to work it off layer by layer. If we
seriously fulfil this with Christ, we can spare ourselves many things.
Only the deed is of significance, the actualization of the commandments
of God. If we actualize, day by day, then the grace and help of God become
active again and again.
We may be aware of the grace and help of God, but we are the ones who
have to set out to develop the longing to come closer to God, our Father,
and thus, to our divine heritage. This is true for all people and for all
souls.
He, the great All-One, conveyed to Me the task to guide back into the
eternal Being all that seemed to be lost.
Gabriele:
Words of comfort from our Redeemer, Christ.
Redemption is given to all to become free and to find themselves in God.
This is why all religions, all institutions have to disappear. There is
neither religion nor institution in God. The Inner Religion is the Christ of
God: It is the life of man in Christ. When we unfold the law of God, our
heavenly heritage, through belief, trust and actualization, then we have
made the Redeemer-spark shine in us. No outer religion and no institution is
necessary for this. When we have unfolded the Inner Kingdom, we are united
with God, our Father, and thus, united with all the powers of infinity,
because we have become divine again.
As
Jesus of Nazareth, I spoke about the law of life without parables to those
who could understand Me. The holy words were mysteries for those who could
not understand Me. This is why I spoke in pictures, again and again. But now
the time has come when I, Christ, reveal the law of life to all, so that
they may find Me; for I Am on My way to establish My kingdom on the earth.
May the one who has ears, hear!
A new humanity is emerging. I, Christ,
bring the inner reform, the spiritual renewal for the Inner Life, to My own,
who truly follow Me. The world of the senses is passing away
— the
spiritual world is rising and, with it, all those who are aligned with Me,
Christ. They are the noble, the fine, who bring the Inner Life, the new
humanity in Me, the Christ.
Many world-oriented people will look upon the acre of death and, in the
end, will enter the realm of death with empty hands, where they will live as
the spiritually dead. They are the ones who did not master their earthly
existence, who missed the opportunity for the growth of their inner being in
the school of earth.
The new man cultivates the community, because he has developed the sense
of community, the common good: One for all, and all for One.
The new man in Me, the Christ, knows no act of violence, knows no claim
to possession and no thought of wanting power.
He is the one who brings the light, who radiates the light and with the
light of truth ignites all those who truly strive for the truth.
The rate of vibration of the new humanity and the new earth is several
degrees higher. The prisoner of the world, the greedy one, the one who
strives for power and prestige, cannot reach this higher vibration. He falls
into his own floods, into what he, himself, has created.
The new humanity is the people with spiritual nobility, with inner
values; for I, Christ, have risen in them.
The new man in the era of the Spirit will possess the earth.
The eternal Being streams through all realms and onto the earth. The
one who has awakened to the truth has awakened to the Being, to the creative
power and to the creative life, which floods through the earth, which
permeates those people who ennoble their souls. These people bring the
creative thoughts for the new earth.
Explanations:
As Jesus of Nazareth, I spoke about the law of life without parables
to those who could understand Me. The holy words were mysteries for those
who could not understand Me. This is why I spoke in pictures, again and
again. But now the time has come when I, Christ, reveal the law of life to
all, so that they may find Me; for I Am on My way to establish My kingdom on
the earth.
May the one who has ears, hear!
In the Inner Spirit-of-Christ Church,
the Worldwide Prophetic
Teaching Church for All People,
our sister Gabriele said about this:
Dear brother, dear sister, we have to learn to hear and feel into the
words, in order to grasp their deep meaning, otherwise, we cannot decipher
the words. Everything that is said then remains a secret to us.
We will understand the law of God only when we learn to understand
ourselves. The one who does not know himself does not understand himself,
and the one who does not understand himself does not know himself. The one
who does not know himself also cannot look into the words of the Spirit of
God. For him, they remain mysteries.
Therefore, the Inner Path. The one who walks the Inner Path
unfalteringly purifies his soul. Through the purification of the soul, the
consciousness expands; more light and more energy flow into the soul and
into the person. The person sees more clearly, widely and deeply; he
understands and feels more. Why? Because he has more energy. The less of
God's energy that we have, the less we understand, because not having looked
at ourselves, we do not understand ourselves.
The Lord said: "But now the time has come
when I, Christ, reveal the law of life to all."
Why? Because we live in a mighty time of radical change, in a time
that has never been before. All old structures will disappear. The old will
remain in no country, on no continent, as though it were swept away. This
means that Christ is coming!
"I Am on My way to establish My kingdom on
the earth."
Well, dear sister, dear brother, His kingdom should also be
our kingdom; for we are heirs to this kingdom, since the kingdom of the good,
of the pure, is in us; it is our spiritual heritage. We shouldn't be content
with just the knowledge. Let's set out! We have to develop our spiritual
heritage again, in order to find our way into the inner kingdom, in order to
be inhabitants of the Kingdom of God, in heaven, or on earth in the Kingdom
of Peace of Jesus Christ.
And so we cannot avoid unfolding the inner kingdom - the Absolute Law.
The Lord says:: "May the one who has ears,
hear!" When we learn to listen into the words, we will no longer
need the language of pictures which is made up of conceptions, of the
reflections of our human ego. Then we behold the image of God in the word
and, in the end, we behold ourselves as divine beings.
Language expresses itself in pictures. If they are human pictures, then
we need the parables, the pictures of the causal law. When we find our way
to the image of God, we understand the law of God in a pictorial way and
look more deeply. Thus, when we set free what is bound, then the so-called "mysteries"
of God are also solved.
God has no secrets. With our sins, which we do not want to have revealed,
we block our access to the Inner Life. Through this, we do not look deeper
and declare the whole thing to be a mystery of God. When we untie the
shackles of the human ego, when we let go of our secret thinking, of what we
still want to hide, then we will also unveil the so-called mysteries of God.
In God, there are no secrets. We, ourselves, are a mystery to ourselves.
We, ourselves, have veiled the eternal law, our spiritual heritage, through
our wrong thinking, through our sins. Thus, we have to unveil it again, for
we are heirs to the eternal truth, beings of the light. We know that by
walking the Inner Path, we find our way into the Absolute Law, into our
spiritual heritage. But not when we only talk about the Inner Path. Then it
just remains talk - but we have to act.
Let's not talk, let's act! Then we walk the Inner Path earnestly. Only
when we walk it earnestly, that is, unfalteringly, do we find our way out of
the den of iniquity.
Let's think about how many nice words have already been said about
Christ and all that has been already written about the causal law. All this
is of no use, if we only listen and read. It is of no use, if we only talk
about it. We have to fulfil it, that is, do it.
A new humanity is emerging. I, Christ,
bring the inner reform, the spiritual renewal for the Inner Life, to My own,
who truly follow Me. The world of the senses is passing away -
the spiritual world is rising and,
with it, all those who are aligned with Me, Christ. They are the noble, the
fine, who bring the Inner Life, the new humanity in Me, the Christ.
Gabriele:
The inner reform, the spiritual renewal, thus means for us: We have
to become new. This, in turn, means changing our way of thinking - away from
humanness, to the spiritual.
Christ said, it is the noble, the fine, who bring the Inner Life. How do
we become noble? How do we become fine? - We have to let ourselves be
polished.
Here is a picture: It is said that a diamond develops only under
pressure. It shines as a result of cutting and polishing. We have become, so
to speak, this diamond again. How? The days bring what we should look at. If
we don’t look at it, then they bring grief. If we look at it and clear it up,
the days will become filled with light more and more. They bring more joy.
Why? Because the diamond is being cut and polished.
Let us become aware of this again and again:
What do we want to become? Noble people? Finest porcelain? Cut glass? A
cut and polished diamond?
Let us observe ourselves in the events of the day. How do we react? How
do we think? Is this noble? Is this fine? Can God, the light, radiate
through me in this thought that I am thinking or in this word that I am
speaking? Am I permeable for higher powers in these words and thoughts -
that is, am I fine and noble? Let us ask ourselves this each day!
Every now and then, let us stand as though before a mirror with the
following questions: Is my inner being the finest porcelain, cut glass or a
cut and polished diamond? Are my sensations, feelings, thoughts, words and
deeds noble? If yes, then I ennoble my soul and the nobility of my soul also
brings out what is noble in my person.
And that which is fine in man is expressed by the nobility of the soul.
We gain respect for our life and respect for our neighbor. We become
permeable for higher powers, because we are cut and polished. Selfless
thoughts and words are the expression of the nobility of the soul, of the
noble and the fine in and on man.
Dear brother, dear sister, let us look at ourselves. Let us use on
ourselves the highest criterion that corresponds to our innermost being, the
image of God. When we ennoble our souls, when we are already the finest
porcelain, cut glass, a cut and polished diamond, then we notice it in our
way of thinking, speaking and acting. If not, why not?
Let us also take into our daily life the task: God is - and I am divine!
The process of becoming conscious of our true being is contained in
these words from the divine law. They help us to recognize our humanness
from the point of view of the law of life. When we gain respect for our true
life, we will also clear up what we have recognized as our humanness and no
longer do it. In this way, we ennoble our soul. In this way, we refine our
nature. In this way, we become noble, because we become pure.
Many world-oriented people will look upon the acre of death and, in
the end, will enter the realm of death with empty hands, where they will
live as the spiritually dead. They are those who did not master their
earthly existence, who missed the opportunity for the growth of their inner
being in the school of earth.
Gabriele:
If our behavior relates solely to the temporal, if matter is the
measure of all things for us, then we stay coarse in our overall structure,
because all our aspirations are world-oriented and aligned only with the
coarse, bristly ego.
At night, when we sleep, our soul cannot reach the higher spheres, not
even the closest planes of purification, because of this world-oriented
aggressive striving, the striving for power. It stays earth-conscious and
thus, close to the earth. This means that the soul hardly knows about the
worlds beyond, since it is preoccupied with only matter, just like the
person who identifies only with this side of life.
When the human body dies, that is, passes away, where does the unknowing
soul go? It stays on the earth; it has no home. For just as the tree falls,
so will it lie. And this is spiritual death. As a human being, the soul did
not master the school of earth. The person was world-oriented, and the soul
stays world-oriented. It does not know its way into the worlds beyond, much
less the eternal home.
The Lord revealed: "They are the ones who did
not master their existence, who missed the opportunity for the growth of
their inner being in the school of earth."
If we know about the laws of God and do not actualize what we have
recognized, that is, if we do not purify ourselves, then what we have failed
to do in this life can be made up for only with difficulty. For we know that
the huge memory bank, the so-called causal computer - the material stars and
the planets of the astral planes, which store the offences of mankind
against the law, its burdens of sin, what it has sown - is almost filled.
The seed and its harvest now follow one another more and more closely. The
causes become effective more quickly, the effects hit man more and more
quickly. This worldly structure, which was erected in the presumptuousness
of God-distant thinking and living, is collapsing.
The one who knowingly violates the divine should no longer hesitate to
turn back now. We should take the hand of Christ, so that the wave which is
the world does not overpower us and that our own self-caused fate does not
catch up with us.
The ones who knowingly violate the laws of God are those who know them
and do not act in accordance with them. We Christians have the Ten
Commandments and the Sermon on the Mount. These principles of the law
obligate us to fulfil what the Lord commanded us and we cannot say that we
did not know about it. The Ten Commandments are recorded in our soul,
because they were given to us by God through Moses, and the same is true of
the Sermon on the Mount, given to us by Jesus, the Christ of God.
So let us set out, dear sister, dear brother, to find our way out of the
human way of thinking, so that we will not stand with empty hands when the
hour has come for our physical body.
The new man cultivates the community, because he has developed the
sense of community, the common good: One for all and all for One.
Gabriele:
The new man cultivates the community in the light of Christ. What is
the community in eternal Being? One for all and all for One.
The community is the great family of God, where all spirit beings live
and work under the same law. When we develop this sense of community with
each other, then we also no longer circle around our human ego, around the
forms of our small thinking, around our self-made human laws.
Everything is law. In the law of God, everything is in good order - it
is given; it is absolute and it is in order the way it is given. The
heavenly law contains the seven basic powers of God - divine order, divine
will, divine wisdom, divine earnestness, divine patience, love and mercy. So
it is given; so is it determined - so is it eternal.
That which is not a part of the Absolute Law, of the divine, falls under
the law of cause and effect. It is the base, the human, the perishable, the
negative. And so our human thoughts, too, are principles of the causal law.
When we are preoccupied only with our baseness, with our human ego, then
we cannot be sensitive to our neighbor. We cannot understand him in our
inner being. We have not accepted him, let alone received him in our heart.
To receive him means to let him come alive in us.
At the same time this means: When we do not feel our neighbor in our
inner being, that is, when the positive sides of our neighbor do not resound
and vibrate in us, then we are still preoccupied with our humanness.
If our neighbor, who is a part of our divine heritage, is not alive in
our innermost being, then we have no sense of community, because we have
community only with ourselves and have not developed the sensitivity for our
neighbor. We lack the positive, divine communication, which characterizes
the sense of community.
When a person lacks the sense of community, then there is no common good
for him either, since he thinks only of his own good. The common good is the
good for all.
Thus, the one who develops the sense of community strives towards the
common good. As it is in heaven, so is it on earth. In heaven it is: All are
in the One, God. And everything belongs to everyone, because they are heirs
to infinity. So when we do not strive towards the sense of community, the
common good — where everything belongs to everyone -
then we will not be able to follow Christ either. He guides us into the law
of love, into our spiritual heritage, which comprises the community life and
thus, the common good.
The Kingdom of God will come to the earth, and just as it is above, that
is, in the eternal Being, it will then be similar in the Kingdom of God on
this earth. For this reason, Christ gives us the law of life; for this law
will be valid among those who follow Christ.
In the eternal Being, everything belongs to each being, because the
great whole is in each one as essence. The great whole, the macrocosm, forms
our spiritual body - as microcosm; for we are divine law that has taken on
form.
The consequence of this is that if we reject just one person, we do not
cultivate the sense of community, nor do we live in the thought of the
common good, and thus, do not live in the law of life. When we disregard the
least building block of nature, we disregard God; for God, the whole, is
also in this form of life.
When we became human beings, we took on a great task: to become
divine. This means nothing other than to develop again everything that lies
in us as divine predispositions, divine aspects, divine powers. To reach our
total divine heritage is the task of every person, of every soul.
We have the divine heritage deep within us. However, it has to fully
blossom in us again. When the essence of each smallest building block in the
universe is again active in us, then our divine heritage is fully alive.
When we become aware of this, we will no longer thoughtlessly,
indifferently, or with little appreciation, pass by the small and large
forms of life in nature, which God, our Father, allowed out of His radiation,
in order to remind us human beings of the beauty and abundance of our
heavenly home. We will respect our neighbor, just like ourselves. For each
one of us is the child of the eternal Father, which should become His image
again.
Dear brother, dear sister, let us become more and more aware of the
community, of the unity with all Being. The following questions help us with
this:
Whom or what do we still belittle?
Whom or what do we carelessly pass by?
Do we still step carelessly on stones, grass, and flowers?
Infinitely wise and great is God. We step on grass, on flowers, on
stones, yes, even on animals. In these, figuratively speaking, He is the
carpet on which we are allowed to walk. God serves us in this way. Under our
feet is the entire on-going process of creation, God.
The infinite greatness, God. wants to tell us: "Recognize yourself. You
are My image. Attain your true magnitude, for you are on earth to become
divine."
The one who does not strive for the inner community with all people and
with all Being is against God. The one who does not include God in his life
is against God and against all that is divine. Such a person loves only
himself, his base self.
Where there is self-love and egocentricity, there is no peace which
grows out of inner communication. Selflessness brings out the sense for
community, the common good. The sense of community always shows itself in
the outer life, too — in the deed. Thus, the one who
nurtures the inner communication with all Being will also take his place in
the great family of God, and will further the common good. As in heaven, so
shall it also be on earth.
When we are still caught up in our ego-world, then we look only to the
armor of our human ego. The narrowness, the state of being confined, shows
itself in that we think only of ourselves: "I, I, mine, me, for me!" Now we
are called: out of our limitation, out of the mine and me, to the neighbor,
who is a part of us.
When we are caught up in the limitation of our ego, we do not behold the
omnipotence of God that surrounds us. We do not hear His sensations of love,
which He whispers to us through countless mouths, through the ray of the sun,
through the wind, through the leaves, through the blossoms, through every
stone, through every animal, through the radiation of the stars. God is
wherever we go, wherever we are.
God is deep in our feelings, sensations, thoughts and words. When we
become aware of all this, then we begin to very gradually awaken in the
awareness: We are children of God, heirs to infinity. Only then will we set
out to diligently walk the path to Him -because we have awakened.
The one who sleeps in worldliness thinks only of himself. The one who
awakens thinks more and more of Him, Christ.
The more we are for our neighbor in a selfless way, the more people we
will meet consciously, to whom we can give drops of life out of the eternal
Being, so that they, too, find their way into the great ocean, God, which is
the community of all drops.
To develop the sense of community means to live consciously. Daily we
have to learn to fathom the salvation deep in man, and not to look only at
the shell, the human being. When we look only at the outer appearance, then
we see only the faults of the person. But when we receive our neighbor in us,
when we let the total impression become effective in us, then we see the
positive, too.
When we affirm the positive in and on our fellow man, then it will
become easier and easier for us to accept and receive our neighbor. Let us
not forget that each one of us is a part in the true Being of our neighbor.
Each one of us bears within the essence of infinity and each pure being is a
part of infinity. When we disregard or scorn just one person, then we
disregard and scorn God.
Dear brother, dear sister, let us take the following statement, "God
is in everything, also in our neighbor", as a consciousness aid, as help for
the days ahead of us; for the path to God goes solely by way of our neighbor.
We are called to glorify God in all our feelings, sensations, thoughts,
words and actions by ennobling, that is, purifying, our soul more and more.
And so the deep glorification of God is the actualization of His holy laws
and their fulfillment, in order to become again the lawful being which we
are in the sight of God.
When we reach unity with our neighbor, then we live a life similar to
the one in heaven. One knows himself to be at home in the other. Each one
feels himself in each one. This is the community of those who live in the
Inner Life. This is the divine communication in the All.
The same holds true for the nature kingdoms of the eternal home, for the
animals, plants, and minerals. The same holds true for the stars of the
eternal Being. It is a great, all-encompassing, communication network - the
All. All communication, each individual impulse and ray in this pure cosmic
network, is contained as essence in the spirit being. Each spirit being is
contained as essence in the other, and all and everything form the great
unity in God.
The new man in Me, the Christ, knows no act of violence, knows no
claim to possession and no thought of wanting power.
He is the one who brings the light, who radiates the light and with the
light of truth ignites all those who truly strive for the truth.
The rate of vibration of the new humanity and the new earth is several
degrees higher. The prisoner of the world, the greedy one, the one who
strives for power and prestige, cannot reach this higher vibration. He falls
into his own floods, into what he, himself, has created.
The new humanity is the people with spiritual nobility, with inner
values; for I, Christ, have risen in them.
The new man in the era of the Spirit will possess the earth.
The eternal Being streams through all realms and onto the earth. The one
who has awakened to the truth has awakened to the Being, to the creative
power and to the creative life, which floods through the earth, which
permeates those people who ennoble their souls. These people bring the
creative thoughts for the new earth.
You
people of this time, understand: As soon as a person turns back and
renounces materialistic pursuits, he goes inwards, into the kingdom of
stillness. As soon as he has taken the one step, he realizes that God, the
Eternal, had already prepared this path for him long ago.
The person who strives towards truthfulness does not overcome his base
ego for his own sake, but to become divine again.
Explanations:
You people of this time, understand: As soon as a person turns back
and renounces materialistic pursuits, he goes inwards, into the kingdom of
stillness.
In the Inner Spirit-of-Christ Church,
the Worldwide Prophetic
Teaching Church for All People,
our sister Gabriele said about this:
When we read: "... renounces materialistic
pursuits ...", we think of the hectic world, of the noise,
the rush of an externalized life which sees and knows only the material. But
who is the driving force in matter? Who is part of it?
The person, himself, is the cause of the unrest, of the hectic and
chaotic activity. It is our human thoughts that hound us, so that we, in
turn, hound others. Through this, we are the hounded ones.
When we let ourselves be driven, we are the driven ones. The more we let
ourselves be driven by our thoughts and wishes, the less we know ourselves,
because this state of being driven brings hectic activity into our life. The
thoughts race through our brain and we no longer understand ourselves,
because we can no longer grasp our thoughts.
We human beings drive the wheel of materialism because we, ourselves,
are materialistic and are looking for our own advantage, because we,
ourselves, stake everything on "wanting" and "having", and thus turn more
and more without, instead of going within, into the kingdom of stillness.
It is quiet in the kingdom of stillness. Our thoughts become
harmonious. We become peaceful. We fulfil all the smaller and greater wishes
which we have as human beings, in the awareness that God knows what is good
for me.
This does not mean that we should deny the fulfillment of all wishes. It
means to free ourselves from the pressing wishes that leave us in a fog,
which paralyze our consciousness. We should look at these pressing wishes
and clear them up with Christ; for God, our Father, wants things to go well
for us. Let us build on Christ, by fulfilling the laws of God more and more
and striving towards the consciousness of becoming divine. Then we will
possess everything that we need, for God knows what is good for us.
When we think and live in this awareness and trust in God in all things,
that which is due to a child of God will be fulfilled. Through this, we
ennoble our soul. All that is pressing and hectic is not the noble, is not
the fine in man. Man becomes ever coarser, ever cruder, through this
unworthy behavior. He wants only to have and grab up; the greed grows and he
craves everything that he sees and can get hold of.
The Kingdom of God in us is the inner wealth. The one who is truly the
child of inner stillness receives what he needs and beyond that. The child
of the inner stillness does not have to live in want; it does not have to be
hungry; it will never have to live in a quagmire - unless it has
quagmire-thoughts which drive it, thoughts of wanting to be and to have, of
claims for power and the like.
The one who enters into the stillness receives. The one who lives in the
outer world takes.
Taking always bears greed in it, grabbing: Everything only for me!
The more a person takes, the poorer he becomes - at the latest, when in
a future incarnation, his soul seeks out those places where his former
unkindness and hard-heartedness have left their traces.
This does not mean that we should just be idle, that we should simply
sit and meditate. The spiritual person is mobile and dynamic. He works from
within to without. He plans, places the plan in the will of God and, in the
plan, lets himself be guided by God, day by day. Then he does not take - he
receives and can give. He is not driven - he is dynamic.
"As soon as a person turns back and renounces materialistic pursuits,
he goes inwards, into the kingdom of stillness."
Dear brother, dear sister, we go into our inner being. What is our
inner being? It is our home, the only haven where we are safe and secure.
Our inner being is God, is the law of love. We can imagine the law of
love as a mighty white flame which shines in our inner being. It is the
flame of selfless giving, of impersonal love, the flame of justice; it is
the flame of the seven basic powers; it is the law, God.
God, our Father, is the only security in Christ, our Redeemer. He, who
dwells in our inner being, invites us to enter into this inner room, which
is our security. The Inner Light, in which we immerse, gives us support,
gives us secureness, gives us peace, harmony and stillness. Thus, the inner
being, into which we want to and do enter again and again, is for us like a
fortress, a citadel, in which we are safe and secure.
Let us ask ourselves: What are we talking about when we say, "We go into
our inner being"? Let us really look into this: Are we really in our inner
being then - or are we in our human sensations and thoughts? Do we feel
safe? Do we feel we are in a fortress, a citadel, protected by the great
All-One, who is our life, who is love, who is our Father? Or are we still
outside?
Dear sister, dear brother, when we refine our sensations and thoughts,
our words, deeds and our senses more and more, then we also let them become
divine, then we draw our world of senses within, so to speak, and linger in
the Inner Light. The Inner Light surrounds us, envelops us and strengthens
us. Every thought, which is thought in the Inner Light, that is, in the
innermost being, is divine, is peaceful, is harmonious. Every sensation and
every feeling that rests in the ocean, God, lets the person - the outer
shell - feel that he is a being in God.
The one who lives in the awareness that his innermost being lives in the
center of love, in the light, cannot do anything but say yes to the One who
is the most beautiful, the most holy, yes, the absolute.
The most beautiful, the holy, the absolute is our divine heritage, is
what we are in our pure spirit garment. The pure being remains in the light
of God at all times. The light of God, which streams and radiates through
all pure realms, is symphony, is the ocean, in which all pure beings and
pure forms move.
Many a one asks himself: What does it look like where the spirit beings
are at home, where I, too, as a pure being, live and am active?
God, our Father, gave us the planet earth. The earth - as the eternal
Father gave it to us - is a planet of great beauty, a reflection of the
heavens. Here, too, there are beautiful, magnificent gardens. Let us think
of large gardens with trees, roses and bushes. The sun irradiates the
gardens - we see light and shadow.
In the eternal home, every life-form shines from within itself through
the radiating and pulsating nucleus, which is all in all things. Each rose,
every leaf, shines from within itself. In the large parks, especially in the
large Italian gardens, we see graceful bridges here and there which go over
little brooks. It is similar in our eternal home.
The reflected splendor of the large parks on this earth conveys to us a
sense of the gardens of our heavenly home. In the eternal Being, there is no
separation, no hedges and no fences. The entire infinity of the pure Being
is God's garden, where the buildings of the pure Being are found. They
consist of the finest and the most select, fine-material minerals which
shine on their own from within. The spirit beings are one with everything
that streams and has become form.
These few words want to give a small sense of what awaits us in the
eternal Being. The forms of nature on this earth point out what is also in
the pure heavenly worlds, but transformed down into matter, and to be
experienced in our world of the senses. When we learn to feel into what we
see, that is, when we learn to behold, we perceive more than the outer shell
shows us. When we behold instead of seeing, we experience a trace of what
also lives in the material forms: the divine.
Many a one thinks that everything in the other dimensions must be empty,
that everything is uninhabited. No. It is a busy life, a life in the law of
God and with the law of God, a divine creating and working in the great
cosmic law and with the cosmic law; for God, the Creator, breathes in and
out. His works of divine creating are tireless. The spirit beings form and
shape according to their mentality. This means that they work in accordance
with the basic power of the plane they are a part of.
Every spirit being is compressed, eternal law, and thus, the whole of
all of infinity is in it as essence and power. The spirit being does not
need to say, "This is mine", because every spirit being is heir to infinity.
Because it is heir to infinity, it can also go everywhere. It doesn't need
to go here and there to meet its neighbor. Everything can take place in it
through the principle of divine communication. This excludes the distance of
"here and there."
We are on earth to become divine again, to return into the eternal Being
from where we came and which we have to become again. To us human beings, it
seems a long way, when we think of "there". But when we become aware that
the whole of infinity streams through us as light and power, yes, that our
spiritual body is the compressed Being and the all-power, God, dwells in
every cell of our body, then we know: God is there. God is very near. And in
us is the eternal law, our home, our nature, which is divine.
Wherever we go, wherever we are - God, the
Eternal, is with us. When we look at an object from without - who radiates
to us? God. He radiates into our inner being. When we pay attention to only
the outer appearance, then we do not grasp Him. As long as we look only at
the outer appearance, we are externalized and thus see only the outer
appearance. Then it hard for us to live in the consciousness that we are
children of God, pure beings, divine Being, divine life.
Many ask: "Can we become divine on earth, can we become divine as human
beings?" The answer is: It is our soul that can become divine. The person
needs the programs for this earth. Let us look back: What we have learned
from childhood on, in order to be able to survive as human beings, these are
our programs.
But if we let our earthly programs, which we need as human beings, be
radiated throughout by the Spirit of God, then we are guided, and we will
look more deeply with our senses and thoughts, which are pure for the most
part. We will then perceive and grasp in depth what is not perceptible in
the outer world.
Instead of merely looking, we have to learn to take what we see into
ourselves and let it take effect in our inner being. Then we feel more and
more that God is near to us. God stands by us. He gives us power and leads
us, also by way of our earthly life-programs of thinking, speaking and
acting.
When we are not content with outer things, with the material shell, but
strive to feel into the outer forms of matter, into the life of the
different forms, then we gradually develop our spiritual consciousness and
can fathom the life of the form we are looking at.
How do we do this? First we look at the whole material structure of the
life-form. We affirm the divine life power in the form. By doing this, we
begin to send. We send — at the same time, we receive.
For when we human beings send to objects or forms of nature, they radiate
back to us immediately, and we receive. Through the fulfillment of the
eternal laws and through this exercise, we very gradually open up our divine
consciousness and perceive from there the communications, through the
principle of sending and receiving.
Dear brother, dear sister, let us try to take our steps consciously,
even though they are still very small. During the coming days, let us
remember a consciousness aid, a memory aid, a task, an exercise, and when we
use it, we will notice: Even a small step is rewarded from within. We are
allowed to sense it, to feel it.
Though there are still traces of humanness there - just the effort will
be rewarded by the divine power. The answer is the feeling of freedom, of
lightness and joy. That is the answer of God. That is the reward of the
Father to His child which is taking steps towards Him more and more.
We can also come into inner communication with the animals. Let us
practice communicating with the innermost being of our animal brothers and
sisters, with the creating-powers in them.
Through this, we distance ourselves more and more from the personal,
confining, egocentric, human ego and can look at the still remaining
ego-person. By this kind of self-recognition and clearing up of our
humanness, we find our way ever more inwards into the Kingdom of God, the
stillness in us.
As soon as he (the person) has taken the one step, he realizes that
God, the Eternal, had already prepared this path for him long ago.
Gabriele:
There is infinitely much hope in this sentence:
"As soon as he has taken the one
step, he realizes that God, the Eternal, had already prepared this path for
him long ago." Through whom? Through Christ.
We all know that Christ is the way, the truth and the life. He has
prepared the way for us, through the sacrifice on Golgotha. Through Christ,
the path is already predetermined for each one of us. We will take it
because we bear redemption in us. When we take it, is determined by each one
of us, because of the law of free will.
To have "...
taken the one step" -
means that we have actualized. Our soul has become more light-filled.
The light of the soul is greater and radiates further. Through this, we
already see the next step before us, and we also have the strength to take
it. For the greater the consciousness-light of the soul becomes, the further
we see, the deeper we perceive, the more we recognize - ourselves and,
through actualization, our neighbor, as well. Only in this way can we give
help.
Let us think of Christ. Through Golgotha He prepared the path for us. He
walks it with us and leads us to the Father.
With Christ and through Him, we mature into the divine life that is
deep in our soul and waiting to be developed again. This is why we are
pilgrims on this earth. As long as we do not rest in God, we journey and we
will be discontent again and again, unhappy again and again. Even if we
believe today that happiness favors us - tomorrow it has already gone. Outer
happiness does not last; discontentment or unhappiness follow it again and
again.
We have to find the inner happiness. It is the stability in Christ. The
inner happiness is the security and secureness in Christ. Let's dare to take
the chance with Him. He is present; He is in us.
The day shows us that we can come closer to Him. How? The day tells
every single one of us. And Christ, the helper, is also in the day, in all
events, in all adversities - whatever comes towards us. He is always with us.
When we go through our days in the awareness that He is always with us,
then we also dare to take the steps out of our humanness with Him. We are
then granted inner happiness and, in the inner happiness, the inner peace.
Selfless love grows in the inner peace, because we don't look only at the
faults of our neighbor. We also see our neighbor with his positive sides.
Let us say yes to Christ! Let us dare to take the first step with Him
- and we will gain the courage to take the next steps and thus mature into
the life, into our true life, which is divine.
Blessed is the one who is able to grasp that the inner hold - the hold
that always holds - is so close to us. It is Christ in our soul. It is
Christ in every cell of our body. It is Christ in every thought, in every
problem, the positive solution in every difficulty. Christ is the
omnipresent Spirit in the Father, and the Spirit of God is in us.
Our days will change their appearance when we make ourselves aware of
this more often: Wherever we go - the hold, the security, is in us. Whatever
happens - the hold, the security, is in us. Whatever we think, even if we
believe we can hardly overcome this or that problem - the hold, the security,
the help is in us.
He, Christ, is always there - always ready to help us. When we fall - He
catches us, puts us back on our feet and says, "Come, go on!" Where? To Him.
Where is He. Here, there? No! With in us.
Once we are aware of this, we find inner security. In the inner
security, we feel the secureness - and in the secureness grows, in turn, the
love. It is the love of the child for the eternal Father because Christ and
the Father are one: o n e stream, the one Spirit that permeates everything.
In today's time, we need Him more than ever. No matter what, Christ
stays with us; He does not leave us. Not even when we have scorned Him for
years, decades; not even when we have thought about Him very little; not
even when we have slandered Him and not believed in Him - Christ is there.
One honest request, one small, selfless step towards Him, into the inner
being - and He comes several steps towards us, from within our innermost
being.
Dear brother, dear sister, let us take the step to trust Him, to
entrust ourselves to Him, and we will experience very soon that Christ is
the hold for us; He is the Comforter and Redeemer. He is the path to the
Father. He is the truth in us. Christ is our life and, in Him, we are the
life.
The person who strives towards
truthfulness does not overcome his base ego for his own sake, but to become
divine again.
Gabriele:
What does this sentence mean for us?
When we give up our base ego for our own sake, then we will make little
progress spiritually. We may indeed give up one human aspect, but we build
up another one, because we are not concerned with becoming divine, but with
achieving more. That is self-deception. We will not achieve anything more,
but we will build up more egoism, more humanness. For only base things come
from the root of baseness, if we do not place ourselves into the
consciousness of becoming divine again.
Our goal, our inner motivation, is decisive. When our goal is to come
nearer to Christ, the Inner Light, the law of the heavens, then, we will
also unfold in us, Christ, the Inner Light, the law of the heavens.
"The person who strives towards truthfulness
..."
Dear brother, dear sister, what is truthfulness? Truthfulness
is divineness.
Truthfulness come from truth. The truth comes from sincerity, and
sincerity is purity, absoluteness. The truth is the depth of Being and Being,
itself. The truth is the source out of which truthfulness streams. For the
true one is the sincere one, and the sincere one is the pure one. And the
pure one is the truthful one, and the truthful one lives in the source of
truth.
Therefore, we can also not overcome our humanness if we do not overcome
o u r s e l v e s , if we want to make spiritual progress only for our
personal ends. For in human striving is again already the root for new
humanness. Then we continue to build within the law of sowing and reaping.
But we want to become divine. That is the goal of each soul, and the
reason and purpose of our earthly life. That is why we should strive towards
truthfulness. We attain truthfulness by gradually immersing in our true self.
These questions hold true for us every day: Who am I, in my words and in my
deeds? Am I truthful or still human? How is my world of feelings and
sensations? The world of feelings and sensations tells us more clearly and
distinctly than our world of thoughts whether we are truthful or whether we
only affirm the truth with our intellect.
What is in the brain is by far not in the heart. The brain bears our
human programs, our knowledge, our intellectual thinking. The divine, the
logos, the intelligence, the truth, dwells in the heart, in the spiritual
consciousness, in the depths of our soul. As a result, the intellect
deceives, but never the intelligence in the soul. There is the truth, and
out of it the comes truthfulness. Everything else is deception and illusion.
The truth is modest, quiet and simple; it is the Being. Everything
truthful and divine is the Being. Only the wanting to be, which is not the
Being, wants to shine, to show itself, to scintillate and show off. The one
who counts on knowledge and intellect shines and scintillates; that is not
the life, not the Being, not the truth, but only illusion, hollow and
fleeting.
About this, a sentence out of the divine wisdom:
Each one has made himself what he is today - not how he scintillates
today. Tomorrow, he will again be what he is today - but he will no longer
scintillate.
The truth, that is, wisdom, is without ifs and buts; it is without
question. Wisdom does not have to ask. It grasps the core, the inner being,
the heart of all things and events, and knows.
May the one who wants to find his way into his inner being, from his
head into his heart, move the following statement in himself:
Knowledge has an eye only for the outer world. The one who has only
knowledge asks — because he has no wisdom. And so we
can say: The knowledgeable one asks - the wise one knows.
Spiritual knowledge that is lived becomes wisdom, Inner Life, the life
out of and in God. When spiritual knowledge and wisdom have become one, then
the person sees the reason behind all things. He knows about all things,
because he has become wise.
What
I reveal to you is the path to the divine law, and is also the divine law
itself.
In the Inner Spirit-of-Christ Church,
the Worldwide Prophetic
Teaching Church for All People,
our sister Gabriele said about this:
In the book, "The Great Cosmic Teachings of Jesus of Nazareth to His
Apostles and Disciples Who Could Understand Them. The Life of the True
God-filled Men", the Lord touches upon the causal law for us, again and
again. From the absolute, He radiates into the law of cause and effect, so
that we can find ourselves and, through actualization, find our way to our
true heritage, to our true Being.
And so we can say that it is the hand of God which He extends to us, the
hand of the Father who wants to help His child out of hardship and
affliction, out of the grip of the human ego. Our Father wants to draw us
upwards into the light, the pure, the fine, into the Being. He is there -
always ready for us. When we take His hand to never let go of it again,
depends solely on us.
Come
to Me, all of you, for I Am the life that makes you rich.
I Am the inner wealth, Christ, who gives Himself to you. Open your hearts
and you will become heart-thinkers, who look inwards and thus let the
kingdom of the inner being come to the earth.
I Am the kingdom of the inner being. For this reason, come into your
inner being and know that each one of you is the temple of the Holy Spirit.
Cleanse the temple; then you sanctify your sensations, thoughts, words and
deeds, and you will become the new person, who does not think in a static
way, but dynamically, who penetrates the three dimensions because he is a
child of the All —
the son and the daughter of God who live in the sonship and daughtership,
because they live in God, their Father.
Explanations:
Come to Me, all of you, for I Am the life that makes you rich.
I Am the inner wealth, Christ, who gives Himself to you. Open your
hearts and you will become heart-thinkers, who look inwards and thus let the
kingdom of the inner being come to the earth.
In the Inner Spirit-of-Christ Church,
the Worldwide Prophetic
Teaching Church for All People,
our sister Gabriele said about this:
Dear sister, dear brother, Christ calls,
"Come to Me,
all of you, for I Am the life that makes you rich."
We know: Christ, the Spirit of life, is in us. He is the
central light of our soul. He is in each cell of our body; in the Father He
is omnipresent in all Being. For us, this means that we have to turn within;
for only in our inner being do we find Him. When we look for Christ in the
outer world, then we will not find Him. Then we draw up theories and
opinions about Christ — and there are many of those.
The one who does not find Christ in his heart does not find himself. He
does not know himself. Not knowing means to deny one's divine heritage by
disregarding the eternal Being. Because to find Christ means to find oneself,
to recognize oneself, to put aside the humanness in order to become divine.
Then we unite with the Redeemer-spark, with Christ in us. Out of this rises
the primordial spark, which is the light for us into the Kingdom of God, to
our Father.
"I am the inner wealth", so
speaks Christ.
The one who does not develop the inner wealth, the one who strives only
for outer wealth, the one who collects, grabs and hoards external things, is
poor in his inner being. Even though he may still be rich today, he will be
poor tomorrow; for the law of sowing and reaping will become active at the
right time, according to the radiation of the stars.
The one who strives for outer wealth, who grabs and is envious, who is
greedy and hoards possessions, is an esteemed man in the eyes of the world.
From the point of view of the Spirit of God, of the inner wealth, he is a
poor man; for he has already plunged into poverty, even as a rich man.
Only the one who gives is rich, not the one who takes. For God, the
life, gives and gives of Himself unceasingly. The one who lives in the inner
kingdom need not worry that his wealth will pass away. God is infinity,
unending love, eternity and eternal wealth. The one who gives selflessly
lives in the circulation of giving and receiving, and this circulation is
eternal.
The life, the love, is giving. The one who does not give selflessly does
not love. The one who does not give does not live. There is no fulfillment
in taking, only in giving.
Selfless giving is selfless receiving; it is the circulation of life.
I Am the kingdom of the inner being.
For this reason, come into your inner being and know that each one of you is
the temple of the Holy Spirit. Cleanse the temple; then you sanctify your
sensations, thoughts, words and deeds, and you will become the new person,
who does not think in a static way, but dynamically, who penetrates the
three dimensions because he is a child of the All
— the
son and the daughter of God who live in the sonship and daughtership,
because they live in God, their Father.
Gabriele:
How often have we already heard that each one of us is the temple of
the Holy Spirit?
As long as we need outer temples, we have not yet sanctified our own
temple. As long as we go to outer temples to worship God, we have not yet
found ourselves as the child of God. As long as we idolize people, we
worship the darkness. God alone shall be worshipped, for He is the whole. He
is the center in our life; He is the holy One and we should become
sanctified.
The one who does not cleanse his own temple also soils the temple of his
neighbor. The one who does not cleanse his own temple pollutes the whole
earth; for he does homage to the one who wants it this way.
The new man, the man of the Spirit, does not think in a static way, but
dynamically. He is not imprisoned and caught in his own world of conceptions.
He does not think from here to there. He permeates the three dimensions
because he is aware that he is divine. To permeate the three dimensions
means to not affirm the constriction, matter, but to feel into matter, in
order to find the One who is in everything and who knows of all things.
When our consciousness expands, then we also live consciously. We do not
observe what comes towards us only from without, but we take it into our
inner being and let it come alive in us. Thus, we feel that the three
dimensions exist only in our world of thoughts, but not in the kingdom of
the inner being.
Not until we cleanse our temple, do we see through, that is, permeate
the density and grasp what it means to be children of the All. Then, at the
same time, we are in the sonship and daughtership of God —
why? Because we do His will. And His will is the Absolute Law, from order to
mercy.
Dear sister, dear brother, through Christ, who is the light and the
life of our soul, we will again become the child of the All, who lives
consciously in God, his Father, as the son, as the daughter, of God. Let us
allow Him to become the focal point of our lives. How do we find our way to
Him?
Each day is a guide that shows the way to Christ. When we live in the
present, when we live in the day, then we see the many hints and indications
for our path. We find our way to ourselves. First of all, to our base self,
in order to clear it up. When we act in accordance with our recognition,
then the divine self, our heritage, awakens more and more in us and we feel
the inner richness. It is the deep happiness, the selflessness and openness,
the uprightness and truthfulness. We are no longer chased and hounded, we
are planners who place their plan in the hands of God, who let themselves be
guided day after day by the great law of order, God, who is the present and,
in the present of man, knows the future.
Let us not forget to also thank Him. God never forgets us. Gratitude
links. Gratitude is the alignment with the great giver of all goodness.
Gratitude is the tuning into and joining in the great stream of giving and
goodness. Without gratitude we do not attain selflessness. Gratitude makes
us free and joyful.
Dear brother, dear sister, the Spirit of God touches us and speaks to
us through everything that comes towards us. And so also in what we read,
there is the one or the other message for us. We feel it; it moves us; it
preoccupies us. Images come, memories, sensations, recognitions,
admonishments.
We should take the task which is in this for us seriously. What is the
message for us, what is the task for today? The day, which brings it to us,
brings at the same time the energy to master it. Let us use this chance to
become free from our burdens.
I
Am all in all things.
Behold the bush - and you will find Me.
Pick up the stone - and you will find Me.
Look to the stars - and you will perceive Me.
Look deep into the human being - and you will find yourself and thus, Me,
Christ, the self in you.
Behold the animal - and you find Me.
Feel the wind - and you hear Me.
Behold the drop of water - and you behold yourself in Me.
For I Am the life in all things;
and you are the life in all things;
and everything is in Me, and everything is in you.
We are united in Him,
the great All-One, who is eternally -
the stream of Being and the personified Being.
He is the stream of the All and the drop itself.
In the Inner Spirit-of-Christ Church,
the Worldwide Prophetic
Teaching Church for All People,
our sister Gabriele said about this:
Words out of which the entire heaven radiates!
"I Am all in all things"
God is never in outer things. God is streaming power, the life in
us. When we have found our way to God through a life of actualization and
fulfillment of His laws, then we also have access to the divine in all forms
of life. In order to communicate with the divine in our neighbor, we have to
live in God. We have to return to our true being in order to find God in all
things.
"Behold the bush - and you will find Me"
When we just look at the bush, then we sense no reaction from
the substance, the "I Am". We speak about it, the bush, that it is beautiful,
yet receive no answer. The All-Spirit speaks out of countless mouths, and
yet many do not perceive Him. What does this want to tell us? It is not the
intellect that perceives the law, God, but it is the very origin of our true
Being that grasps the language of the All.
But if we take in the bush with the eyes of our true Being, we grasp the
total radiation of the bush and at the same time communicate with the very
origin of all Being. Then the bush begins to send and we receive.
God is all in all things. As a result of this, God, the whole law, the
entire All, is in each leaf. Look at the bush - and you will find Me, the
All, the whole. The creation-power is everywhere as the whole; for God is
indivisible.
Dear sister, dear brother, let us become aware that in one leaf, in
one small blade of grass, is the whole All. God is indivisible. The bush has
developed the spiritual consciousness that corresponds to its kind, the
nature-consciousness of the bush. This radiates towards us; it sends. God is
always the whole, even when one aspect of God, for example, the
nature-aspect of the bush, radiates towards us. It is still God, the whole,
all of which is contained in all things.
We have to learn to understand the words: "God is indivisible; He is all
in all things." Only then do we gradually have a sense of the fullness of
God. The fullness of God is the I Am; it is our true being, which is divine.
Thus, we are heirs to the All.
Let us become aware of our spiritual body. It consists of countless
spiritual particles, and in each spiritual particle, we can receive the
whole of infinity because we are beings of the All.
The language of infinity is the language of pictures. We receive
colors, forms, fragrances, sounds and beings as images in the spiritual
particles of our spiritual body as absolute, as perfect, pictures.
We realize that God is so close to us!
"Pick up the stone - and you will find Me."
In the smallest stone is, again, God, the whole.
God is the whole and the fullness in all things. Every developed facet
of the whole radiates to us and communicates with us.
Who would throw away the stone in a thoughtless and unappreciative way?
Only the one who does not know that in so doing, he throws away a part of
his own life. Who will strike a bush? Only the one who, in the last analysis,
strikes out at others with thoughts, words and deeds and, as a result, will
be struck, himself.
"Look deep into the human being - and you
will find yourself and thus, Me, Christ, the self in you."
Again, in the very depths of each one of us. And so, for us,
this means not to look at the humanness of our neighbor, only at the shell,
but to take his total radiation into our inner being. This is perception.
When we are well-disposed towards our neighbor from within, then we
communicate with the positive powers in him. This means that we communicate
with the divine in him and, in the end, with our own spiritual heritage. We,
too, have in us what our neighbor bears in him, the divine.
If we reject our neighbor, then one day we, too, will be rejected. If we
belittle our neighbor, then we, too, will also be belittled. If we kill our
neighbor, then we, too, will be killed one day. Let us remember: What we do
to our neighbor is what we do to ourselves.
"Behold the animal - and you find Me.
Feel the wind - and you hear Me."
To behold means to take in the total radiation of an animal,
to let it reverberate in us. We take in the divine aspects, the unfolded
facets of a part-soul only in the very depth of our being, through which we
are in constant communication with all that is pure. The shell, the person,
receives this divine perception as joy. It is the heavenly joy, the same as
the heavenly cheerfulness that does not irritate the nerves. We will touch
the animal gently and lovingly with the radiation that streams out of our
inner being.
What do we then feel as human beings? We will feel our second neighbor,
the animal, in a totally different way, because we have taken in his total
radiation, not only the outer appearance as we had learned thus far: "This
is an animal. This is a nice animal".
When we take in the consciousness-radiation of the animal, we will also
no longer make value judgements and say, "his animal is beautiful, that
animal is not beautiful", or even, "That animal is ugly". We would be making
these value judgements about ourselves.
Everything is perfect in God, including the essence of the inconspicuous
stone, the bush, the animal. What could be unsightly in God, when He, God,
is perfect in all things? The one who observes only the outer appearance
makes value judgements.
"Behold the drop of water - and you behold
yourself in Me."
Let us look into a water drop that runs down a glass. Let us
put ourselves into the position of the water drop and ask ourselves: What is
above, below, right, left, behind and in front i n the water drop? When we
feel into the water drop, then we will have a sense of the seven dimensions.
Countless life is in one water drop.
And so we recognize that life is all in all things and in all things
is contained the whole principle of creation. God's creation is love, beauty,
purity, eternal Being. When we disdain the smallest form of life, we disdain
ourselves. If we disdain the water drops that hold countless forms of life,
then we disdain ourselves and will one day thirst.
What did the Lord say: "What you do to the least of My brothers, you
have done to Me." In the end, that is what we have done to ourselves. He is
God and we are divine. He is the great whole and we are the heirs. What we
do to our neighbor, our second neighbor, the kingdoms of nature, we do to
Him - and thus, to ourselves.
We recognize that we will only come closer to God, the Inner Life, when
we not only turn to Him, the eternal Father, and Christ, our divine brother,
but also when we communicate with all the forms of life in nature, with the
stars and with our neighbor, whom we have to accept and receive according to
the divine principle of equality and unity.
We learn that everything is in us and that everything happens in us. We
also receive the lawful answer in a flaring up of our consciousness.
But the prerequisite for this communication to be able to take place is
the being aware that we are not just human beings. Our true Being belongs to
the light of eternity. Our true life is the Inner Life. There, we are in the
light and feel ourselves in the light. There, is our spiritual consciousness.
That is our home.
Dear brother, dear sister, all of us are in the earthly garment. But
does this mean that we have to be or remain a rough person with a limited
horizon and a low consciousness?
Each one decides for himself. But one thing is irrefutable: At some
point, every single soul - even if it is only after further courses of
light-cycles which we call eons - will find its way back to its true being
that is spiritual, pure, fine, noble, good and selfless, in one word: divine.
When we strive for the fine, the noble, then we find our way within and
we find our way into the light that surrounds us, like a fortress. There we
are secure. There we are stable. There we are surrounded by the strength and
the love of God. Then we are united in Him, the great All-One, who is
eternally.
We are children of eternity because God is eternal. And since we are
children of eternity, we should also see ourselves as children of eternity
and behave like children of eternity.
We can be confident and composed and do what is right in an upright
manner - what needs to be done at this moment. We are secure in the
awareness that the great white flame in us is the fortress, that is, a
citadel, the strong temple. We are in the light. The light surrounds us. We
are secure in the light. We are united in God.
We need not fear and worry - God, the light that surrounds us, wants the
best for us. And we will attain the best for us when we devote ourselves to
Him - the One, who is all in all things, who is the life in us and in whom
we are the life.
The
powers of the All are hidden only to the one who does not know his true self.
The one who wants to experience the powers of the All must unveil them
through actualization.
In the Inner Spirit-of-Christ Church,
the Worldwide Prophetic
Teaching Church for All People,
our sister Gabriele said about this:
All will be revealed to the one who does not hide from Christ, but
who fulfils the inherent laws of the Ten Commandments and the Sermon on the
Mount more and more. For everything that is pure is in him as essence, power
and light. He is the inner heaven, the eternal Being.
What
you see, I Am in it.
What you hear, I Am in it.
I Am all-in-all, the whole.
When you have awakened to the whole, then you are the Being.
You behold the Being.
You hear the Being and speak the language of Being.
You behold, hear and speak Me; for I Am the whole in you.
I Am the whole in your neighbor,
in you,
in the flower, in the blade of grass and in the stone.
I Am yours - and you are Mine.
I Am the All - and you are the All in Me, the All.
You do not ask - you know.
You do not see - you behold.
You do not listen - you hear and know.
In the Inner Spirit-of-Christ Church,
the Worldwide Prophetic
Teaching Church for All People,
our sister Gabriele said about this:
"I Am the All" so says the Lord,
"and you are the All in Me, the All."
What God is - the law - that is what we are. For He, God,
the All, the streaming love, gave us the whole as essence and power. We are
never separated from God, because the All, the eternal law, our true
heritage, pulsates deep in our soul.
"You do not ask - you know."
When we immerse in the eternal law, we will not ask about
things - we know about them. Then we do not need to ask for the principles
of the law, we know about them. For everything that is in the All is the
compressed structure of our spiritual body, which we, ourselves, are. All of
infinity is in us as knowledge and power.
When we always ask about the things of life, then we are not yet aware
of them. From this we recognize that we have not yet completely unfolded our
spiritual consciousness, our eternal heritage.
As long as the intellect is active, we live unconsciously, because we
relate only to the things we have learned. Then we understand only what we
have stored in our conscious mind - we are unaware of everything else. And
so we ask about that which is our very life: our spiritual heritage, our
divine wisdom, our true intelligence. For we are children of the All. To be
children of the All means to be all-conscious, because the all-wise One has
made us heirs to infinity.
"You do not see - you behold."
To behold is the same as to perceive.
We human beings look here and there. We observe the details in the outer
world and thus human thoughts move into us.
But when we perceive things, when we take in the whole vibrating complex,
then we will gradually experience our true Being in us, because we establish
communication with the inner values, with the inner power. This experience
is the inner peace, awareness, security, secureness, nearness to God.
"You do not listen - you hear and know."
The law does not need to eavesdrop, neither does the compressed
law, the spirit being. It knows about all the details of the eternal law.
When we want to eavesdrop, it is human; it is curiosity. For what we
should hear, we will hear. To want is to be controlled by curiosity. If it
is good for our spiritual development, we will hear what we should hear
through inner guidance. And so we could ask ourselves: Is our life under
guidance or control?
As long as we want to eavesdrop, we are curious. Curiosity always has
its human thoughts that are related to our wanting and our base wanting to
be. What we want, we do not possess, and that which we have as human beings
does not belong to us. We have to rid ourselves of all wanting and of all
wishing, and let ourselves be filled by the inner wealth, then we will not
live in material need either.
Whenever we want something, we are controlled ones, who are controlled
by our human feelings, sensations and thoughts, which push us into our world
of wishes. When it is our endeavor that God may guide us, then we have to
become straightforward. We have to give up our curiosity and our pressing
wishes that often cannot be realized at all, and we have to make ourselves
aware again and again that God knows what is good for us.
When we grow into this awareness, then we become still and experience
the inner guidance from the inner stillness. The inner stillness also gives
us the resulting quiet which contains prudence and concentration. From this,
grows the spiritual dynamism which lets us go through the day in a
concentrated manner.
