2000.02.27 There are only prodigal sons of life and they call God their Father, and there are no longer shepherds to teach the man what humility is, and I, the Lord, am ready to run before the one who tries to come back as a slave into My house, not as a master, not as a worthy son, but as a humbled son before Me, so that I may rejoice over his coming back. If he comes haughtily and if he comes for his own rights and if he comes to pose as master and heir, then I do not rejoice over his coming back. However, if he comes ashamed of his squandered life and humiliated because of his defeat, then I see him even he is far away and I come into his way to welcome him, and I do not let him come alone. I get out because of his humility and work according to the righteousness; I do not let him come alone, for I am the Righteous One and I come into the way of the one who humbles and I come out for his humility, and in this way I am righteous, for I said in the Scriptures: «Which of you men, if you had a hundred sheep, and lost one of them, would not leave the ninety-nine in the wilderness, and go after the one that was lost, until he found it? When he has found it he carries it on his shoulders, rejoicing with his friends. For there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents, then over ninety-nine righteous people who need no repentance». I, as a good Shepherd, know of the man’s haughtiness and prepared My way with justice even two thousand years ago, when I was working by the word to tame the proud hearts, which were used to justice after the law and according to justice. I did not want to be judged by the Jewish people, who’s God I was, coming from the Father. I was exhorting them to repentance and they judged Me denouncing Me for injustice, and they thought that was right. I was appeasing them to humility and forgiveness and they took Me and crucified Me so that they m ight no longer hear Me, for the Israel people was sinful. Not only Gentiles were under sin. Israel’s sin was even greater, because he was sinning, knowing what sin was. However, I came from heaven to exhort him to repentance, and I could not do it because he pretended to be right. I came to be his forgiving Shepherd, but he was haughty and struck My hands and then he took Me out from him. Then I ran before those who were humiliating themselves through My sacrifice and resurrection, and I was taking them in Me and making them faithful by grace, and I made a people out of Gentiles for Me, and they are called those who are redeemed from among the people, the first fruits of God and of the Lamb, and there is no lie into their mouth, because they are righteous. Amen. Oh, only the righteous one works out the lie, and then he uses it because he needs it to cover his sin, as the people of Israel has been doing and that has been hiding putting Me as a wall between him and the rest of the nations; Me, the One Who was condemned by the law; Me, the One, Who fulfills and not violates the law. Behold, only the righteous one works out the lie, and those, who choose life in return for their life, My eternal life in them, are those who are chosen from among the people, the first fruits of God, and there is no lie in their mouths, because they are blameless. Amen, amen, amen. Oh, there is no longer a man not to work out the lie and there is no longer a man without reproach. There are on earth only people squandering of life and they call God their Father, and there are no longer teachers to teach the man what humility is, because there is no righteous man. Then I said: «Here I have come!» and I have come, for it is better for the man to be shepherded by Me then by man, for the man who does not show to the man what to do, so that he may see, that one cannot be called a teacher over the man. Oh, there are no longer teachers anywhere, there are no longer, and I, the Lord, am ready to run before the one who comes back humiliated to Me, to make him like one of My slaves, and I to be Master and Teacher over all. Amen. It is better for the man to be called My slave than My son, for the son loses his humility and plays the Father and he gets spoiled and thus becomes unworthy of the Father, but the slave is 2
