Oh , sons , My glory is hard to bear by man , and its sight frightens the man . When I took My three disciples and I went up with them in the mountain to pray to the Father to show them My glory from Him , and for My Father to confess Me to them that I was His Son , they were seized with glory and were frightened because a cloud shadowed them and the Father spoke from the cloud : « This is My beloved Son in Whom I am well pleased . Listen to Him ». ( Matt : 17 / 5 ) And they , hearing the voice , fell on their faces , and were afraid , but I touched them and said : « Get up , and don ’ t be afraid », because My glory had passed and there was no one except Me before their eyes . Then I told them not to speak to anyone about My glory that was seen by their eyes until I had to be resurrected from the dead . However , they , understanding the coming of the Lord ’ s Day and knowing that before it Elijah had to come and to tell everyone about My coming , asked Me : « Then why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first ?» ( Matt : 17 / 10 ) Then I told them that Elijah would come and that he would restore all things , and then I also told them that he had already come but they did not recognize him and did to him whatever they wanted to , and that even the Son of Man would also suffer from them . Then the disciples understood then that it was John who came ahead of Me with the gospel of the kingdom of the heavens , which I came to establish on the man and for the man to be My kingdom . Amen .
Oh , My people , the readers of the Scriptures of the Lord do not understand what the kingdom of God is . The heaven and the earth are Mine , and I made them for man , and then I made the man in order to make him My kingdom and to reign with him over the earth , having the heaven as My kingdom in man , but I could not make My dwelling in man with the kingdom of the heavens on earth and the readers of the Scriptures do not understand what God ’ s kingdom is . However , You have been taught by God , My people , to know what My kingdom and its place are in your body that covers it , so that its works may come out before the people , and that the people may praise God and understand His glory in your midst . But even stronger then the people , you have to know My glory , which you are clothed with and the cloud where the Father glorified Himself in Me with the word , and that you may receive it then , and in the spirit and the power of Elijah to be able to share it to the sons of Israel , so that they may turn with their heart and with their face to their parents to whom I made My promises , and that their parents may also turn their hearts to them to save them , for I have come as a Savior on earth and I stay covered in the glory of My word , and Moses and Elijah are in My glory and I sit in council with them in all My coming , and the Father speaks through Me all His word . Amen .

Oh , My people , the man who is born from heaven , from the mystery of life , that one is a man of the pains just as I was . The one who flees from the pain , that one flees to the pain , to the pain which comes after the joy without life in it , but blessed is the man who after he suffers after the mystery of life , loving it and living it , receives after that the crown that is not overcome of the heavenly greatnesses on earth and in heaven and it appears as the inheritance of the heavens . Amen .
