CHAPTER 44

The Profession of Faith of the Twelve - The Pillars of the Community

God has no secrets; sin veils the truth (2-3).
True original communities are founded on the rock, Christ (4). The falsification of the truth by the church - The justice of God allows each sinner a long time to turn back (7-8). The law of God comes into this world; the truth becomes visible (10-12). Mankind will find its way into unity with Me, the Christ (13-15)

1. Jesus sat once again near the lake in the midst of twelve palm trees, where He often rested. And the twelve and their companions came to Him; they sat in the shade of the trees, and the holy One in their midst taught them.

2. And Jesus said to them, "You have heard what the people say about Me, but who do you say I am?” Peter stood up with his brother Andrew and said, "You are Christ, the Son of the living God, who descended from heaven and dwells in the hearts of those who believe and who obey Him for the sake of righteousness.” And the others stood up and spoke, each in his manner, "These words are true, and so do we, too, believe.”

3. And Jesus answered them saying, "Blessed are you, My twelve, who believe; for it is not the flesh and blood that revealed this to you, but the Spirit of God that dwells in you. Verily, I Am the way, the truth and the life. And the truth knows all things. (Chap. 44 :1-3)

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

The one who is of the truth speaks the word of truth, for he is able to perceive into the depths of truth. God also reveals all seeming mysteries to the one whose heart is with God. For nothing is a secret to the person who lives in God. He knows the laws of God, because he himself has become the law. The one who lives in Me, the Christ, also knows that I came from the heavens in order to announce to the people, as Jesus, the gospel of love, which is the way, the truth and the life.

"And the truth knows all things” means that the soul and the person who live in the truth, in the law of God, also know the truth and about all the things of the truth. Such people are the righteous proclaimers of the truth.

Recognize that many people speak about the "mysteries” of God, because they look at the sin which veils the truth. God has no secrets, neither in heaven nor on earth. God has given the eternal truth, the divine law, to all His children as heritage. Through this, the child of God became the image of the Father. Only the person who lives in the shadow of sin speaks of the mysteries of God. He looks only at the shadow, the sin, and does not know the truth which is hidden to him behind the veils of his sin. The one who gives his sins over to Me, the Christ, day by day, and repents, forgives, asks for forgiveness and does not commit the recognized sins any longer will find his way to the inner truth which sets him free.

When the sins are cleared up, the light of the soul, the truth, can radiate through the person ever more strongly. Then the person remains faithful to the truth more and more, in feeling, thinking, speaking and acting. The one who lives in the truth knows all things because in his daily behaviour he remains faithful to the truth, God. Only in this way does the soul find its way back to its origin, to its being, which is divine.

And so, God does not hide from people. But man hides from God because of his sin.

There are no mysteries of God. The works of God are mysteries only for those people who do not do the works of God.

4. All truth is in God, and I bear witness to the truth. I am the true rock and on this rock I will build My community; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it and, out of this rock, rivers of living water will flow in order to give life to the peoples of this earth.

5. You are My chosen twelve. On Me, the head and the cornerstone, are built the twelve pillars of My house on the rock; and My community shall be built on you in Me, and in truth and righteousness shall My community be established.

6. And you will sit on twelve thrones and send forth, through the Spirit, light and truth to all twelve tribes of Israel. And I will be with you even unto the end of the world. (Chap. 44:4-6)

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

The faithful apostles are the founders of the original community in Me, the Christ. The communities of Christ that live in Me, the Christ, stand on the rock, Christ.

A community in Christ is formed of people who endeavour to fulfil the will of God. Since My life as Jesus of Nazareth, free original communities which were formed outside of the church institutions came into being again and again and at all times.

Many of these original communities - which were founded on Me, the truth and the life, the gospel of selfless love, and in which the Spirit of God, the truth, spoke and acted directly - were destroyed in their outer establishments by the outer power of satanic rule; but the power that brought them forth was not destroyed.

Recognize that it was only an outer destruction of the original communities. In reality, the spiritual potential was invisibly built up more and more. Again and again, this power then came forth from the invisible, and original communities flared up anew in the world. They disappeared again - but in the spirit, the potential of Christian life grew. These smaller or greater steps of evolution are a part of the first steps for the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ.

In the current setting out into a new time [1989], a far greater stream of original Christian life is flowing into this world and becoming more and more visible. This inexhaustible divine stream - the Christ-consciousness in connection with the divine wisdom - is gradually taking hold of the whole world, the entire earth, and is preparing the New Era.

Today [1989], life in the original Christian sense is emerging again. Original communities emerge again; their central point is the original community New Jerusalem, which has become the Covenant Community. The prophetic Spirit is active in the original communities and leads people into the New Era, similarly as Moses led the Israelites to the first stopping place in the promised land.

In today's turn of time, there is still the "for and against” of the human ego; for even the people in the emerging and growing original communities still show they have humanness in and about them.

Despite all this, more and more people on the earth are touched by the Spirit of God and many already go the path within, to the inner kingdom, in order to live in Me, the Christ. The humanness passes away and the will of God becomes more and more manifest through the stream that gives itself: the Christ in connection with the divine wisdom.

I, Christ, Am the true rock, and all the communities that actualize the laws of God and keep them in their daily life are built on Me, Christ, the true rock. The communities in Me are formed by those people who gather around Me, the life, through the actualization of the eternal laws and who rely only on Me - for I Am the way, the truth and the life and, in the Father, the justice.

In unity with Me, the Christ, people form the communities of Christ. So it was, so it is again, and so it will be in the future on the earth, which becomes ever more light-filled. People who fulfil the laws of God need no outer leaders. They have Me, Christ, the law of life, and are thus for one another and not against one another. Those who are against one another are against Me and, consequently, are not My community.

7. But after you, people of perverse mind will come and, out of ignorance or through violence, will suppress much of what I have told you and will attribute words to Me which I have never spoken; and so they sow weeds among the good wheat which I have given you to sow into the world.

8. For the truth of God has to endure the opposition of sinners, for thus it has been and thus it will be. But the time will come when everything they have hidden will be revealed and made known, and the truth will set free all those who were bound. (Chap. 44:7-8)

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

The law of sowing and reaping will stay in effect, until the negative has passed away and the divine dwells on earth, that is, until all people on the transformed, new earth fulfil the will of God. The time in which My word has been twisted and distorted, in order to make it serve the purposes of those who thought they stood above the truth and created underlings for themselves - is gradually drawing to a close.

Recognize that the weeds were sown by opinion-makers who did not understand My words, My sayings, and who, in part deliberately and also unintentionally, twisted the truth. Many interpreted the truth in their favour. Among other things, the church institutions developed from this. They are marked by dogmas and doctrines, and in each case interpreted and interpret the gospel in such a way as it served and still serves their institution. Only those people who submitted themselves to these dogmas and doctrines had and have access to these institutions. This alone gives insight into what I have just revealed. They have twisted and distorted My word in order to make it serve their purposes.

The truth is the power of infinity and is there for all people. The truth radiates in countless facets into this world. Who claims that the facets of divine truth may be pressed into dogmas and forms?

And so weeds grew among the good seed. Although the weeds grew over the good seed in the course of the centuries, the good seed survived in concealment. The time has come in which the weeds are very gradually taken from the acre of life, so that the good seed may sprout and yield a good harvest. Very gradually and with much effort and patience, the bad seed is taken from the acre of life, so that no kernel of the good seed is lost and thrown into the oven where the weeds burn. This is the justice of God.

Even though many people cannot understand that the transition from the sinful world to the Era of Light lasts a very long period of time, this is nevertheless in accordance with justice. For, again and again, God gives every sinner the opportunity to turn back. Each spark of true remorse, no matter how small, is heeded and nourished. That is the love and justice of God. God, the Eternal, is just to every soul and every person.

The truth of God may have to endure the dissent of sinners - but not for all eternity. The time has come in which everything that was hidden by the opposing force is exposed and made known, for everything is already manifest in the atmospheric radiation. In this way, the truth becomes free, and it will free all people who let themselves be set free by the truth, by God.

9. One is your Master, and you are all brothers, and no one is greater than the other in the place which I have given you; for you have one Master, namely, Christ, who is over you and with you and in you, and there is no inequality among My twelve or their followers.

10. All are equally near to Me. Therefore, do not strive for the first place; for you are all first, because you are the cornerstones and the pillars of the community, which is built on the truth and which is in Me and in you. And for all people you shall establish the truth and the law, as they have been given to you.

11. Verily, when you and your brothers are in agreement to begin something in My name, I will be in your midst and with you.

12. Woe to the time, when the spirit of the world enters into the community and My teachings and commandments are rendered void through the corruption of men and women. Woe to the world, when the light is hidden! Woe to the world, when these things shall be!” (Chap. 44:9-12)

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

And it happened again and again that the one deemed himself greater than the other, that the one thought he was nearer to God and, out of this vanity, disdained his brother.

I say to you: The law of God is for all, and those who keep it are humble and make no differences. The law of God comes into this world and those who keep it are in and with Me, the Christ. And those who do not keep it will leave this earth and will find themselves again in the realm of the souls. For the earth is cleansing itself from every untruth and from every trifle of this world.

Who wants to resist the truth, the rock, Christ?

The water washes round the rock and the waves cover it for only a short time. Yet the rock, the truth, which I Am, will become visible and come to the fore again and again. And all those who, despite all resistance, hold fast to the rock, to Me, the Christ, will also become strong in Me and form My community, which has been built on Me, the rock, through the steadfast faith of innumerable men and women who unshakeably believed and believe in the truth and who served and serve the truth.

13. Then Jesus raised His voice, saying, "I thank you, O righteous Father, Creator of heaven and earth. You have kept all these things hidden from the wise and the prudent, but You reveal it to the children.

14. No one knows You except Your Son, who is the Son of Man. No one knows the Son, except those to whom Christ is revealed.

15. Come to Me all you who are weary and heavy laden, and I will give you peace. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am meek and humble at heart, and you will find peace in your souls. For My yoke is equal and easy, and My burden is light and does not weigh upon you unequally.” (Chap. 44:13-15)

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

To the "wise and prudent”, that is, to the intellectual and egocentric people, the truth is hidden, because they cover it with their egocentric thinking and acting. But from the Eternal through Me, it becomes manifest in all its facets to the humble and meek people who strive for the truth - and is made manifest to them for their life in God.

No one knows the Father but the Son who lives in the Father. In Jesus, I, the Son, embodied the humanity which will find its way into the son- and daughtership, which is brothership, into the unity with Me, the Christ. For the one who has accepted and received in his heart the Son, Me, the Christ of God, also knows the Father who lives in and through the Son - and in those and through all those who live the gospel of love and personify it in their daily life.

The one who comes to Me, the Christ - who dwells in the innermost being of every person - and gives his hardship and burden over to Me and, from then on, lives in Me more and more will attain inner peace through Me and will bring peace into the world. Only the one who comes to Me and abides in Me becomes meek and humble. His yoke is also a part of My yoke; it will then be easier for him to carry, for I Am the supporting power for all souls and human beings. And his burden, too, becomes light and does not weigh unequally on him, for I help all souls and men carry their burdens.
