CHAPTER 24

Jesus Condemns Cruelty - He Heals the Sick and Casts Out the Devils

All violations of the law of life fall back on man;
nature and the creatures on earth are gifts of God for the well-being of man (1). Explanation of the "withered arm” (3). Salvation and healing for the body, if it is good for the soul (7). Pharisees yesterday and today - The fight against the growing light on earth and in the spheres of purification, still in the time of the Kingdom of Peace - In the turn of time, the foundation of the Kingdom of Peace will be laid and will take form - A reminder to the people in the Kingdom of Peace: Do not forget the pioneers and the incarnated seraph of divine wisdom, My prophetess and spiritual ambassadress - The fight behind the wall of fog continues (8). Explanation of the "miracle of the food” (12-13)

1. As Jesus passed through a village, He saw a group of idlers. They were tormenting a cat which they had found and ill-treated it shamefully. And Jesus commanded them to stop and began to reproach them; but they disregarded His words and reviled Him. (Chap. 24:1)

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

The one who torments and ill-treats people and animals will one day experience torment and ill-treatment on his own body. The same applies to the offences against the plant and mineral kingdoms. For what is manifest in matter as a form of life also exists in the soul as spirit-substance. Therefore, the one who violates life passes judgement on himself, because he burdens a part of his spiritual heritage. For everything that comes from God also exists as essence in the soul of man.

Recognize: The earth brings forth nourishment for man. People also need shelter and clothing, because they cannot create their food, shelter and clothing, like the angels in heaven. The earth is the bearer of life for everything. It should neither be violated nor exploited. The earth and everything on it, animals, plants and minerals, want to serve man. The prerequisite for this is that man accept and receive his earth into himself, that is, that he care for it, for the earth is a great living organism.

God, the Eternal, gave man the animals and plants and granted him fruits, vegetables and grain from the earth. He gave these to man and said, "Make the earth subject to you”, which means in its correct implication: Respect and care for the life in all living forms, and they will serve you.

Recognize: The pure forms of life of the animals are created by God, and each plant belongs to God, the great potential of creation, which continues to develop in the evolutionary cycle. Thus, every form of life is a part of the great whole.

Man is commanded by God to treasure and love life and to keep the commandment "pray and work”. For this reason, the life of the so-called idlers is a waste of the energies of the day. They are people who steal God's energy. The person who does not use the day, but only abuses it in order to exploit his fellow man or to do violence to animals and plants, acts against the law of life.

People who think only of their own welfare will torment the animals and exploit the earth and poison the life on it, because their thoughts are poisoned by greed and envy. For people who do not know themselves torment people and animals and are against nature. They do solely what their egoistic thinking compels them to do. They themselves are driven and therefore want to drive away everything which is around them, because everything which does not fit their conceptions disturbs them. Their human ego makes such people act as if they were of unsound mind.

They do not know the commandment of asking for forgiveness, of forgiving and of making amends. They get even with their neighbour: an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. But in so doing, they burden their own soul with what they inflict upon their neighbour. For what man does to his neighbour - and to the animal, to the plant, indeed, to the entire organism of the earth - is what he inflicts upon himself. So it was and still is in today's sinful time [1989]. Yet a new generation rises and strides into the new era, into a life with each other and with God.

2. Then He made a whip of knotted cords and drove them away, saying, "This earth, which My Father created for happiness and gladness, you have made into the lowest hell with your deeds of violence and cruelty.” And they fled before His face. (Chap. 24:2)

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

The whip symbolizes the law of cause and effect. The one who despises and tortures his neighbours and his second neighbours as well, the one who commits violence and cruelty against man and animal, against plants and minerals and against other forms of life in and on the earth will experience the effects of his causes - unless he repents in time.

Like a whip, the law of cause and effect will lash all those who have ill-treated and ill-treat life - in whatever form and in whatever state of consciousness it appears. The earth was given to men, so that they would become conscious again that they are children of God, that their life - as all life - is from God, so that they learn to cherish and love life. In whatever form and in whatever state of consciousness life comes towards the person and manifests itself: in everything is God - the life.

Everything pure wants to serve selflessly, the earth with its nature kingdoms, too. The one who recognizes that his life is from God and lives accordingly, keeps peace with all creatures, with everything that is given out of the bosom of God for the joy and well-being of man. God wishes for peaceful and joyful children. However, the one who does not want to recognize God nor to accept His ruling hand is against Him and against everything given to man from His hands, thus becoming discontent, unhappy, worried and ill.

3. But someone even worse than the rest returned and threatened Him. And Jesus extended His hand, and the young man's arm withered. And great fear came upon all. And one said, "He is a sorcerer.” (Chap. 24:3)

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

"And Jesus extended His hand, and the young man's arm withered.” This event was misunderstood and therefore was passed on in this way. A person who lives in the law of God never interferes in the law of cause and effect in order to speed up and bring about what a wrongdoer causes and determines for himself.

The one who commits violence will reap the same or something similar. Had I caused the arm to wither, as is written, I would have interfered in the law of sowing and reaping. The incident occurred in compliance with the law of sowing and reaping: While ill-treating the animal, the wrongdoer had hit his arm on a hard, rough object. The blood coagulated, the arm turned blue and then hung limp. I stretched out My hand and pointed out the effect, in order to explain to him the cause. Since the people of those days knew of the law of sowing and reaping only in the form of the words "an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth” and, what is more, misinterpreted it, they believed that I had conjured this up and that I was a sorcerer.

In this way, I repeatedly showed the people that they will reap what they sow: The one who brings bad seed into the acre of life will also have a bad harvest, for the fruit already lies in the seed.

However, the one who recognizes his faults in time, repents and does not repeat them accepts the law of God and gradually learns to love all forms of life. He then receives from the hands of grace of the Eternal, and his soul and body will attain light, salvation and healing.

Recognize: The seed does not always immediately yield the harvest. What man sows in this earthly life, that is, what he causes - also to the animal and plant kingdoms - is what he will reap, if not in this earthly existence then in a future earthly life or as a soul in the spheres of purification.

Therefore, live each day consciously. For each day shows every person what is good and less good about himself and what he can make amends for today, on this day.

4. The next day, the mother of the young man came to Jesus, and asked that He heal his arm again. And Jesus spoke to them of the law of love and the unity of all life in the one family of God. And thereafter He said, "As you do in this life to your fellow creatures, so shall it be done to you in the life to come.”

5. And the young man believed and confessed his sins. And Jesus stretched out His hand, and the withered arm became as whole as the other. And the people praised God that He had given such power to a man.

6. And behold, as Jesus went His way, two blind people followed Him. They cried out, saying, "Lord, You son of David, have mercy on us.” And when He came into the house, the blind ones came to Him, and Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I Am able to do this?”

7. And they said to Him, "Yes, Lord.” And Jesus touched their eyes, saying, "Let it be done unto you according to your faith.” And immediately their eyes were opened again. But Jesus commanded them strictly, "See that you tell no man.” But, after they had left, they spread His fame in all the land. (Chap. 24:4-7)

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

It is given to the one who believes.

Healings from the Spirit of life are no miracles, but principles of the divine law.

God's love and grace stand by His human children. The right faith comes from the heart. People with a deep faith remain steadfast, no matter what comes towards them, and they receive salvation for their soul - for the grace and help of God pour into the soul first. From there, come the salvation and the healing for the body, if it is good for the soul, that is, if the person no longer commits the same sins which led to the suffering or illness of the body in the first place.

"Immediately” means that the healing did not take place directly, but according to the commandment of faith; for I consider the soul first. In it is the law of life, the law, God. If man keeps it insofar as he is aware of it, then he attains salvation and healing in and on the body as well.

The gifts of grace for the soul in this earthly existence do not always have their effect in and on the body. They can also develop in the soul realms - when the soul is discarnate - or in another incarnation. When this happens, what is unlawful in the soul is gradually transformed into positive power which then flows into the body. This means that the soul is free of it and the body, too, will no longer have to bear what the person once caused.

8. As they left, behold, they brought to Him a man who was mute and possessed by a demon. And when the demon had been cast out, the mute man spoke. And the people marvelled, saying, "Such things have never been seen before in Israel.” But the pharisees said, "He casts out the devils by way of the prince of the devils.” (Chap. 24:8)

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

As Jesus of Nazareth, I was active wherever My Father placed Me. I could bring relief and healing through the power of the Father to many people and could also guide them to recognition through the living word.

I could not help or serve every person who came to Me. I laid My hand on many, but they did not become healthy. Nor did every dark power which I addressed in a person leave him. For the law of life reads: It will be given to you according to your faith. And: Henceforth sin no more! The law of life furthermore says: Have faith even if you do not yet feel on your body what has already been accomplished in the soul. Only those faults and sins which the person recognizes and repents of, for which he asks for forgiveness and forgives - and which he no longer commits - will become effective in and on the body.

Recognize: Every person who speaks other than he thinks is a pharisee.

Even today [1989], the pharisees use the same slanderous speech as when I walked on earth as Jesus of Nazareth and, in order to stir up the people, they pour out the same scorn and ridicule. However, the one who is able to look into the hearts of people recognizes that deep down every pharisee is a person filled with anxiety who is constantly concerned with seeing to it that his structure of lies does not waver. Especially the pharisees and the scribes, too, have already planted much untruth in the world and have spread it among the people.

The blinded pharisees, the leaders of nations and many churchmen say many untruths unintentionally and, in part, deliberately. They say false things deliberately for fear of losing their prestige. They speak false things unintentionally, because they do not examine or control their sensations and thoughts, thus wasting their earthly days without self-recognition. They do not correct their wrong behaviour and they give vent to their aggressions which are aggravated by their fears.

The pharisees, many scribes and churchmen accuse their fellow men of untruths and condemn those who speak from the eternal truth. The one who bears false witness against his neighbour is afraid of the eternal truth, which is God.

Many pharisees wearing clerical vestments are convinced of their competency in questions of faith. They accuse their neighbours of being satanic or "belonging to the devil”, because they themselves serve him more or less in their way of living and thinking. Therefore, beware of those who spurn their neighbours and say evil things about them, for they themselves are in alliance with the evil.

It is important for the people who will then live in the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ to know that the fight of the darkness against the light, as it took place at the time of My earthly life as Jesus of Nazareth, continued over the following eras and is escalating once more today [1989].

Everything that I experienced as Jesus of Nazareth was experienced by many faithful men and women in the centuries that followed. They, too, were scorned, ridiculed and slandered for the sake of the truth. And yet, after their physical death, their souls came back into the earthly garment again and again, in order to prepare the Kingdom of God on earth and, now [1989], to found and build it.

The first steps into the Era of Light were accomplished - at first invisibly to the people of the world - through acts of neighbourly love. Then, in the course of time, the works of God on earth became more and more visible. People of higher consciousness guided their fellow men, their fellow brothers and sisters, on the path within to Me, the Christ of God. They acquired land and founded Christian establishments, where people began to actualize the Sermon on the Mount, the law of God for this earth. These establishments were repeatedly destroyed by opposing forces.

What took place during these times of battle, when the light encountered the darkness on earth, is still taking place now while you are living in the Era of Light on earth on the levels invisible to you, in the spheres of purification. Many former scribes, pharisees and churchmen who were in earthly garment at that time [1989] are still active there. They continue to influence the souls of people who were once servile to them, in order to sow discord in the spheres of purification as well.

You who live in the Era of Light in the Kingdom of God on earth should know about what once happened on earth and is still taking place in the lower soul realms, in the spheres of order. You should be informed about it when you leave this world after your physical death and go through the wall of fog, through which the physical eye is unable to see. For the one who - as a soul - crosses the wall of fog knowing about the causes which are still having their effects will then not be shocked or disheartened, but will immediately begin to teach and instruct the souls which are led to him, so that they may learn about the light of truth which already dwells on earth: the Christ of God, who I Am.

All those who worked and fought and were persecuted for the sake of the Kingdom of God in the period of almost two thousand years after My life as Jesus of Nazareth are, for you who live in the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ, the pioneers of the New Era. They accomplished great things. During the various epochs following My life on earth, they came into the earthly garment again and again and created and increased more and more the spiritual potential for the Kingdom of God on earth. At first, it was an invisible spiritual potential, which then very gradually manifested itself on earth, especially in the atmosphere. From time to time, some of this was realized, that is, became visible, where people began to live and work according to the Sermon on the Mount.

Then the turn of time dawned, that epoch [1989] which unveiled the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ in all its details. Once again pioneers came to this earth. They are the incarnated spirit beings who are in the Mission of Redemption and come from the lineage of David and other lineages. At that time [1989], they made what they had prepared in past generations become visible.

Here and there, the great family of God became visible on earth. Many lived in original Christian communities. The central primordial light among them was the Covenant Community New Jerusalem which, already at that time, assumed the responsibility for all emerging original communities and for the growing Kingdom of God on earth. As the city of Jerusalem, it now forms the centre, from which all original communities are guided into the light-material Kingdom of Peace.

The original communities in Universal Life, which formed even in the midst of the sinful world, consisted mainly of spiritual people who lived more and more in Me, the Christ, and therefore in the law of God. They created community establishments which they, as human beings, needed for living. They acquired and built houses in which they lived in community. They founded artisan enterprises where they actualized the law of "pray and work”. Together they founded and built clinics, nursing homes, kindergartens, schools, father-mother-houses, dining halls and everything else needed for people to live on this earth.

There were neither superiors nor subordinates among them. They all consciously felt themselves to be children of God; they affirmed the son- and daughtership in our eternal Father. They worked for the great whole, the common good, according to their abilities.

As I have already revealed, among these pioneers for the New Era in Me, the Christ, there lived a woman, the incarnated seraph of divine wisdom. She acted as prophetess and spiritual ambassadress for Me and, as a shining example, led the way for everyone in the fulfilment of the eternal laws. I rang in and began the New Era through her, the incarnated part-ray of divine wisdom, and her spiritual dual, the positive principle of divine wisdom. For love and wisdom are active in the Work of Redemption and with them all beings, all sons and daughters of God who took upon themselves the task of contributing what is given them by God: strength, love and wisdom, order, will, earnestness, patience and mercy - for the New Era.

All incarnated light-beings were active according to their spiritual origin, their spiritual mentalities, which shaped their earthly abilities for the Kingdom of God on earth. These pioneers for the Era of Light also endured humiliation, scorn, and ridicule. They, too, had much evil said of them. However, they strove to live in Me, and I was with them.

So that you may keep it in your heart, I repeat and say to you who now live in the New Era: Again and again, the pharisees, many scribes and churchmen of that time [1989] fought against the pioneers. Through slander, they incited the people against them. But, just as it was at the time of My life on earth, so it was in this epoch [1989]: The truth was victorious. Unshakeable, no matter what the slanderers said about them, they continued to work in order to pave the way for Me, the Christ, into the Era of Light. They made what serves the New Era more and more visible.

Rejoice, you who now live in peace - and fulfil the laws of love thankfully! Remember your brothers and sisters who, as pioneers, prepared the way for Me into the New Era and acquired, founded and built for you what was then changed in radiation again and again for the Era of Light - and which you now possess in My name.

But do not forget: The life in Me has not yet developed behind the wall of fog! There, the fight between the light and the darkness still continues. However, the atmosphere of the earth protects you from these forces, so that you may live on earth in peace.

With these words of Mine, you should learn and recognize that redemption is not yet completed in all spheres. Behind the wall of fog in the lower soul realms, many of you will encounter things that are similar to what took place on earth - just as I have revealed here to you, which is recorded as history in this book "This Is My Word”. It will be reality for many of you again, when you have laid aside your earthly garment and step behind the wall of fog in your spiritual body. Because after your physical death, you should go armed and equipped into those realms and help, so that everything which is not yet in accordance with the divine order will be put in order and everything which is still bound will be released.

9. And Jesus went to all cities and villages, taught in their synagogues, preached the gospel of the Kingdom of God and healed every plague and all illness in the people. (Chap. 24:9)

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

I healed many plagues and diseases, but I could not remove "every plague and all illness”, because many people thought only of their body. They were not willing to think of their soul first. Many of the suffering people were just anxious to save their earthly body. The one who thought in this way was unable to receive. He attained neither help nor healing - neither for his soul nor for his body. For this reason, many left disappointed, because nothing happened in and to them. They then spoke against Me, while flattering the pharisees and scribes. Such talk by those who were disappointed also encouraged the pharisees and many of the scribes to proceed against Me, the Christ in Jesus.

10. But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved to compassion; for they were lethargic and scattered like the sheep which have no shepherd. (Chap. 24:10)

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

"Compassion” means to suffer with them: I perceived their suffering and their misery and suffered with them. To perceive suffering out of mercy means to have mercy and to help where help is appropriate.

11. And He said to His disciples, "The harvest is truly plentiful, but the labourers are few. Therefore, ask the Lord of the harvest to send labourers into His harvest.”

12. And His disciples brought Him two small baskets of bread and fruits, and a pitcher of water. And Jesus placed the bread and the fruits in front of them and also the water. And they all ate and drank and were filled.

13. And they marvelled; for each one of them had enough and even some left-over, even though there were four thousand. And they went their ways and praised God for all they had heard and seen. (Chap. 24:11-13)

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

There were many people, almost four thousand. They all heard the words of the Almighty through Me, Jesus. The word of God is substance and power. Many of them took the word of God as nourishment from the heavens. They resolved to eat more of this bread and of these fruits everyday - that is, to devote their life to God, the law of life. In this way, positive energies were set free.

I took a part of these positive energies - which arose from the desire and the will of many who were present to actualize ever more in themselves the spiritual bread and spiritual fruits every day - and condensed the spiritual energies, which then became for the hungry multitude bread, fruits, water and also fish, the staple food of these people. The condensation of the spiritual energy was a manifestation of light from the Spirit of God. It contained solely the spiritual life in the bread as well as in the fruit, in the water and in the fish. What is manifested from the Spirit is not pure material substance. It does not bear in itself the earthly life nor the earthly process of growth. Manifested spiritual substance cannot be killed.

The people present were in a higher vibration. They saw the full baskets, the full water vessels, saw the bread, the fruits, the water in front of them and took the gifts of life from the baskets and vessels - and yet everything took place in and from themselves. They drew these gifts from within because they had developed the higher energies for this - through their good will to devote their life to God, the law, and to increase the powers of God within themselves. They were satisfied and their thirst was quenched.

Because the multitude was in a state of raised consciousness, I, Christ in Jesus, could undertake this manifestation of the light.
