The Return of the Seventy-two

CHAPTER 20

The Return of the Seventy-two

Success or failure of those sent out by Christ - Refinement of matter -
Earth spots, remains of negative energies: the base for the last rebellion of the demons at the end of the Kingdom of Peace - The release of the earth's soul - About "spirits” (3).
The "wise” of the world do not recognize the powers of the universe; they are controlled and fight against the light (4). Christ reveals His own position and His relationship to God,
the fall event and His deed of redemption (5). Christ in the earthly garment could and His messengers can be recognized only by those who have developed the inner vision and hearing - The divine law uncovers itself to the one who hears and actualizes the commandments of Christ, and he lives in Him (6). The mighty radiation of the eternal truth through the wisdom in the turn of time (7)

1. The seventy-two returned joyfully after some time, saying, "Lord, even the devils are subject to us in Your name.”

2. And He said to them, "I saw Satan fall from heaven like lightning.

3. Behold, I have given you power to tread on serpents and scorpions and over all the power of the enemy; and nothing will harm you. However, do not rejoice that the spirits are subject to you. But rather rejoice that your names are written in heaven.” (Chap. 20:1-3)

I, Christ, explain, correct
and deepen the word:

Not all men and women whom I referred to as disciples remained faithful to the law of God. Some succumbed to the temptations of this world. They returned with empty hands. You should not cling to the number seventy-two either. See this number as a term that means that there were many. All those whom I sent out and who returned again were once among My followers. All those who remained in the Spirit of truth worked from the Spirit of the Father and defeated the satan of the senses in many people, thus leading them to a higher life. With the words "even the devils are subject to us in Your name”, they meant the satan of the senses, for many to whom they brought the teaching of life accepted it and also complied with it.

So it was, as I walked in the earthly garment over this earth: Those whom I had sent out and who lived in Me, the life, put an end to the unlawfulness. Their so-called enemies had no power over them; for they were protected by the law of life, because they complied with it. So it is at the present time [1989]: All those who resist the satanic will consciously be the children of God who possess the earth. Their names are already now written in the heavens. Through My power, they will attain what is still unimaginable for many people: the transformation of their human ego and the transformation of this world from the satanic to the divine. Everything will serve them - the earth and all that is on the earth. For it is they who possess the earth in My name.

After some epochs in the Kingdom of Peace, people in the Kingdom of God will be of one spirit, because they have overcome the satanic in their souls and live consciously in Me, the Christ. Through them I will accomplish more works of love on earth.

Although the mantle and the atmosphere of the earth will be mostly cleansed by the stars and planets and the seas, some regions of the earth called earth spots, which are of coarser substance, will still exist. They are centres of concentrated negative energies. These still existing negative energies are remainders from past ages in which the darkness operated on the earth and remains of the atomic processing, remains of chemical substances and all other negativities that man inflicted upon the earth. These energies will remain inactive for a long time because they will be covered over by lava.

Even in the new atmosphere, regions will remain in which aspects of human and animal suffering are still stored. These regions will remain inactive for just as long as the earth spots on earth are inactive.

At the end of the Kingdom of Peace, with its finer matter - before this transformation of the earth takes place - Satan, that is, the demonic powers, with the help of these remaining negative energies, will be allowed once more to measure himself against man and against the earth. Once more, the Eternal in Me, Christ, will give the adversary the opportunity to recognize himself, before he puts himself into chains in the spiritual fields of evolution. The demonic beings will fight until the end to save their territory. God-Father in Me, the Christ, will give these, His children, too, once more the chance for self-recognition and change. Those souls which do not use this last opportunity will have to build themselves up again in the spiritual fields of evolution, because the particle structure of their spiritual body will have been damaged. Such a deformed soul-body thus needs regeneration through the spiritual powers of consciousness of the animals, plants or even minerals.

Even the soul of the earth will release itself from the earth - however, only after many energy years of light. This will take place in a similar way as when the soul of man lets go of the material body and goes into the fine-material realms. Man calls this process the death of the body.

When the soul of the earth frees itself from the earth's mantle, the latter will burst apart; that will then be the dissolution of the earth. However, until this all-powerful and colossal process of transformation takes place, the earth will still have much to bear. Man as well as the earth will experience still many things.

In the statement, "However, do not rejoice that the spirits are subject to you,” I want to correct the word "spirits”.

Two thousand years ago and in later centuries, too, burdened souls were called "spirits”. Nature beings and inexplicable phenomena were also described as "spirits”. However, these are energies that have taken spiritual form and are invisible to man.

Reality is the eternal Spirit, the life that flows through everything and from which the substances come, the beings that have taken form, such as spirit beings, nature beings, animals, plants, minerals. The Spirit is the eternal, pure life which flows through everything, which maintains spirit beings, human beings, animals, plants, minerals, yes, everything.

4. In that hour, Jesus rejoiced in spirit and said, "I thank You, Holy Father of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent, and have revealed them to the unknowing. Yes, All-Holy One, for so it seems good in Your eyes. (Chap. 20:4)

I, Christ, explain, correct
and deepen the word:

The word "wise” means in this context those people who deem themselves to be prudent, on the sole basis of their intellect, that is, of their intellectual knowledge. Truly wise, however, is only the person who fulfils the laws of God.

Many who consider themselves "wise” and prudent because of their intellect have made a wasteland of the earth. They do not yet recognize the powers of the Father and His Son, Christ, who I Am - those powers which are becoming more and more effective through sons and daughters of God in the earthly garment and which are changing the world. These powers of the universe are still hidden from those who keep their heart closed to the meaning of life. They still think that they have to accomplish what corresponds to their understanding and which they therefore hold to be correct and essential. In so doing, they believe that they have to give expression to their wisdom and prudence.

You people in the emerging and growing Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ, who will possess the earth ever more in the coming generations, recognize: Up until the full unfoldment of the Kingdom of Peace, worldly-oriented people will eagerly join forces again and again, in order to fight against the works of the Lord. Many of them do not realize that they are already irradiated, that is, blinded, by the light of the truth. Unconsciously and seized by slavish zeal, they react as the demons inspire them to do and fight against the light.

To My own of the present time [1989], who strive for the path to the true wisdom of God, I say: Remain true! For the time has dawned in which I, Christ pour with divine love and wisdom more and more through people who are of good will and make them into true instruments of God.

The path to the heart of God, which I set forth in the Sermon on the Mount and explained, supplemented and deepened in many revelations, is the path to the love and wisdom of God, to the true humanity. Do grasp this in today's time [1989]!

The people in all the development stages of the Kingdom of Peace, the Kingdom of God on earth, should also know this, so that they can realize that, already in today's time [1989], I was with My own more intensively, that I schooled and guided them.

5. Everything is entrusted to Me by My Father. And no one but the Father knows the Son, and no one but the Son and the one to whom the Son will reveal it know who the Father is.” (Chap. 20:5)

I, Christ, explain, correct
and deepen the word:

"Everything is entrusted to Me by My Father.” I Am the Father's first-beheld and firstborn Son, the Co-Regent of the heavens. I Am omnipresent in the four powers of creation, the four natures of God - order, will, wisdom and earnestness. My spiritual heritage flows in these four nature-streams. In the four powers of creation, it is the omnipresent radiation in the primordial principle, God.

Thus, I Am God in the Creation-Spirit of the Father in the four natures - order, will, wisdom and earnestness. The three characteristics of God - patience, love and mercy - are the filiation characteristics. In them, I Am the Son among all the sons and daughters of God. God means: Highest, omnipresent energy, which brought and brings forth everything and is from eternity to eternity.

From this omnipresent energy, the eternally flowing primordial potential, the Spirit, I withdrew a great part of My spiritual heritage and implanted it as sparks into the souls which burdened themselves by disregarding the law in the three characteristics and in the four natures of God - which, when considered as a whole, are the seven basic powers of creation. The life force of these burdened souls has thus been transformed down to the four lower fall domains. These four lower fall domains became planes of purification after My "It is finished”. Since the "It is finished”, the spark of redemption is support and stability for the fallen souls, so that their spirit substance does not dissolve into the eternal flowing Spirit.

For the desire to dissolve all spiritual forms was in the first fall-thought. The unlawful beings thereby wanted to bring about a new beginning of creation. The eternal Father, whose Son I Am, entrusted Me with the power to accomplish what lies in His will, in the eternal law: to maintain all Being as a whole. Through the Redeemer-deed, each heavily burdened soul received the spark of redemption. The soul is thereby supported, thus excluding the possibility that it would dissolve in the omnipresent Spirit, the stream of God, and would merge into it as flowing energy. Through redemption, the soul becomes the spirit being once more and remains the child of God in spirit form. Had I not withdrawn My heritage and given it to the children of the fall, as support and power of development, many spirit bodies would have dissolved as a result of the increasingly growing burdens. Thus, the equilibrium of creation would have come out of balance and the dissolution of all spiritual forms would have been the inevitable result.

And so, it is given to Me by the Father to act as Redeemer for all deeply fallen souls and people and to lead these, His children, back to His heart again. I remain, therefore, the Redeemer for each soul until it has overcome the four planes of purification. When the soul has activated these four divine rays of consciousness, it will be attracted by the three planes of characteristics, the planes of preparation - also called planes of unfoldment to the Absolute - which are the filiation powers of the Father-Mother-Principle. In these three planes of characteristics, the growing spirit being activates again the entire radiation law, the eternal primordial law. When the entire primordial law is active again in the spirit body, the pure being enters once more into the Absolute, into the eternal Being.

When the soul on the path to perfection has developed the fourth plane of purification, the consciousness of divine earnestness, redemption is accomplished in that soul. The part of My heritage which, as spark of redemption, has supported, upheld and guided the soul then returns to the primordial power, to the all-power. On the path to the Absolute through the three planes of purification, the developing spirit being then accepts consciously the filiation to God once more.

As Jesus of Nazareth, I could not yet teach, in all details, about the Redeemer-deed, about the outflow of My heritage, because I had not yet accomplished the Work of Redemption. My heritage was still in the primordial law. When the Spirit came over Me in the symbol of the dove at My baptism in the Jordan River by John the Baptist, My heritage in the primordial law became more strongly active. With My words "It is finished” it flowed out on Golgotha and divided into spiritual sparks. Every deeply fallen soul received from it the support, the spark of redemption.

The meaning of the statement "... no one but the Father knows the Son” is the following: The person whose thinking is only human and who acknowledges and considers matter as the only reality does not feel the Spirit of the eternal Father in himself. Only the one who knows himself as a child of God, because he fulfils the laws of love, also feels the Father, the life, in himself. Thus, the Father can be felt only by those who actualize the law of love, which I taught as Jesus of Nazareth and reveal and teach as the Christ of God to those who love God more than this world.

6. And He turned towards His disciples and said to them in confidence, "Blessed are the eyes which see what you see. For I tell you: Many prophets and kings wanted to see what you see and have not seen it, and wanted to hear what you hear and have not heard it. (Chap. 20:6)

I, Christ, explain, correct
and deepen the word:

I Am in God, your Father and Mine, the Son of God and God in the eternal four powers of creation.

The words "Blessed are the eyes which see what you see” mean that I, the Son of God, the Co-Regent of the heavens, was in the earthly garment among people. Blessed was the soul in an earthly garment that recognized Me, the Son of God, in the earthly garment. The human being saw Me just as I was, as a man among men. The souls of the blessed ones recognized in Me the image of the eternal Father. Many who came to this earth after My physical death heard Me through the mouths of prophets. However, I no longer spoke directly to them; for the one who no longer has a physical body, no longer has a human voice either. It is therefore necessary to convey the word of God through prophets.

The inner vision, too, is only indirect and not direct; it is as people see it in the three-dimensional world. After My physical death as well as at the present time [1989], I gave and give the word of life through the mouths of prophets, so that My own can find their way to Me and attain bliss and, after their earthly body passes away, behold the Father face to face.

After his physical death, the one who fulfils the words of life will therefore behold the Father and will know Him. He will be in Him consciously, just as I know Him and Am in Him. But the one who only hears or reads My words and does not integrate them into his life will neither feel the Father within himself nor behold Him after his physical death and will not know Him either. For the Eternal is the law of life. The one who does not keep it is spiritually dead. Only that soul and that person who accept My word and live accordingly are consciously in the Father. They will become His image again.

As it was at the time of My earthly life, so is it at the present time [1989]. During My earthly life, I, the Christ in Jesus, physically stood before My apostles and disciples as the image of the Father. But most of those who followed Me and saw Me did not recognize Me. Only a few of the apostles and disciples perceived Me, the Christ, in Jesus. As it was at that time, so is it also in this epoch: Christ is perceivable only to those who have opened their spiritual eyes through a life according to the eternal law of love.

I brought the message of the heavens to many people and spoke to them about My coming as Christ. However, only a few understood the message of salvation. Among other things, they wanted no Messiah in the person of a simple man, of Jesus of Nazareth, who was a son of the carpenter, Joseph. For they wanted an earthly king who would relieve them of their burdens, without their doing anything for it. Many people heard Me, the Nazarene, speaking - and yet did not hear Me, because they saw only the Nazarene and heard only the words of the Nazarene. They did not grasp the word of God which spoke through Me, the Nazarene, because they heard only Jesus, the Nazarene - and not God through His Son in the earthly garment.

In this epoch, too, My word is flowing in the fullness through the incarnated part-ray of divine wisdom - a human child among people, who bears within herself the nearness to God. The unity with the eternal Father in her is recognized just as little as I, too, the Son of Man among men, was once recognized.

It is an old conception of man that each of his fellow men should be just as he, himself, is. Thus, many people differentiate just between outer wealth and poverty, but not between inner wealth and poverty of the soul. They cannot recognize or distinguish the inner processes. For this reason, they see every person from the perspective of their human ego. To them, their fellow men have the only significance which their ego assigns to them. This is why the messengers of God in the earthly garment are not recognized, and the words of life that flow through them are accepted by only a few as being the word of God, the law of life.

Thus the word of the Eternal through the messengers of God in an earthly garment is for many people only the word of man - and yet it is and remains the word of God, sent to man through His messengers.

7. Blessed are you in the inner circle, who hear My word and to whom the mysteries are revealed, who do not imprison or kill any innocent creature, but seek the good in all, for to such belongs eternal life. (Chap. 20:7)

I, Christ, explain, correct
and deepen the word:

I explain the statement, "Blessed are you in the inner circle, who hear My word and to whom the mysteries are revealed.” The one who knew how to listen to the word of the Father through Me, His Son in the earthly garment, Jesus, also lived accordingly. He was truly blessed and entered the inner circle of My flock and was in Me consciously, and I was in him as the light of the world. Verily, the blessing flowed in abundance through Me, Jesus, to many people and to My apostles and disciples.

The blessing, the word of the I Am, flows in a similar way at the present time [1989] through the part-ray of the incarnated divine wisdom. It is given to all people and flows again today in the inner circle to those who gather around My holy word. I give it through the human being in whom the being of light is incarnated, whom I have sent to the people at the present time, at the beginning of the mighty turn of time, so that they may hear My word through her and live accordingly. And as they actualize My holy word, which I teach them once more, and keep My commandment to love one another selflessly - as I love them, as Christ - they will again be My true disciples, the sons and daughters of God, who consciously prepare My coming.

As Jesus of Nazareth, I taught the eternal laws to My apostles and disciples. The so-called "mysteries” were revealed to that one among them who actualized My teaching, because the veils of the human ego fell from him and he thereby lived in the truth. In a similar way, I, as Christ, now teach again the law of love through the incarnated part-ray of divine wisdom. The one who actualizes it uncovers the eternal law. His veils of egocentricity lift, and soul and man then stand in the light of the truth.

Everything is made manifest to people who live in the Spirit, because they fulfil the law of life. Today [1989], I teach the path to selfless love in all its details and lead all willing people who are ready to let go of their human ego, in order to become divine, into the Kingdom of God which is in each human being.

Only the soul and the person who are filled with My Spirit keep what I have commanded them. People of the Spirit will not take or hold captive innocent creatures, much less kill them. The one who lives in the truth knows that infinite love operates and is active in every creature. People in the Spirit of truth live with nature and all its creatures.

On the path to the heart of My Father, I teach [1989] people to recognize themselves, to accept themselves as beings from God and to find the good in all people and in everything that comes towards them. The one who recognizes his true being keeps the commandment of commandments, "Love one another selflessly, as I have loved you as Jesus and love you as Christ.” My teaching is the law of life. The one who actualizes it is filled by the Spirit of the Father and lives in Me, the Christ. All those who keep the commandment of commandments live in Me and I act through them. For through them I fulfil what is revealed: the Kingdom of God on this earth.

Mankind stands in a great turn of time. I, Christ, prepare My coming and pass on My message through sons and daughters of God who have a task in My redemption, so that many may find their way to Me and become one under the outspread mantle of Universal Life - for God is universal life, universal Being.

8. Blessed shall be those who abstain from all things received through bloodshed and killing, and practise justice and righteousness. Blessed are you, for you will attain bliss.” (Chap. 20:8)

I, Christ, explain, correct
and deepen the word:

At the turning point from the old time to the New Era, from the time under the influence of the causal law to the Era of Light, I give My revelations from all seven basic rays of God through the part-ray of divine wisdom. A mighty ray-band of the eternal truth flows through the divine wisdom to the people. Once more, My thinking and living as Jesus of Nazareth is given to them to understand. I also teach again the laws of life and their lawful application to all those who build upon Me, the Christ. The one who actualizes them begins to have a fulfilled life and is a co-builder of the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ, which was announced by prophets and enlightened ones in past epochs.

Verily, verily, blessed are those who follow Me, Christ, by fulfilling the commandment of commandments. They will neither bind nor kill. They will practise justice and righteousness, so that peace will be among men. For the time has come [1989], in which I gather from all four winds those who strive to keep what I have commanded them.

Know: In spite of My instructions and teachings, still many people will destroy themselves through their causes, which they repeatedly create despite knowing better. Yet, their souls remain preserved by Me, the Redeemer. All those who, despite knowing better, disregard the commandments of life will remain at My left side until they have accepted Me and received Me, the Redeemer, and find and keep peace and love within themselves, thus becoming the law of love. Then they will change from the left to the right side and will be with Me until all souls, whom I will bring back to the Father as the image of God, will stand at My right side.
