2007.07.13. Son and Holy Spirit» (See also Matt. 28:18, 19) Oh, but how shall I tell My disciples now to work upon people? The people say that they are baptized, that they are faithful, that they have got God as their Father and the Son as their Savior and that they are good as they are. Oh, how shall I tell you to work upon the people in this time, beloved disciples? I am coming with you from those in heaven and we are, among those from heaven, a table of disci- ples with a Teacher, as I was on earth with you too. How shall we work upon the people on the earth? My fifty year old word, this word which springs from God’s throne and the Lamb’s, as I, the Lord, showed to My disciple John, that he could see the time of nowadays and to announce it to be, the man does not wash in this river of word; the man does not look to see his face and to thirst and then to look for My spring. I spoke through the Scriptures: «He who is thirsty, I will freely give him of the spring of the water of life, and then the one who will overcome will be heir». Oh, beloved disciples, I come with you from the bosoms of the heaven to work on earth and the man to hear now the course of the spring of the living water and to thirst after it. I in you and you in Me, this is how you have to work. May your work and word from heaven on earth be blessed, for the earth is Our footstool for work, as the heaven is Our throne of council. God, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit; you should work in these names and you should speak from the table of the holy council the word of the renewal of the world, for it is written about you My word that was written then, that «at the new birth of the world, you will also sit on twelve thrones, judging over the earth». (See also Matt. 19:28) Amen, amen, amen. – Oh, sweet and praised Teacher! We knew You in all Your glory after Your resurrection from the dead, when You spoke upon us with much heavenly greatness and told us our sending to the nations with the news of Your kingdom, saying to us: «All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. Therefore go, teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I commanded you, and I am with you always, even to the end of the age!» (Matt. 28:18-20) Amen. We were deeply hurt in the day when You clothed us with the Holy Spirit, ten days after the glory of Your ascension, and we sighed with pain for all the moments of doubt, which we had, like some simple people, for Your divinity, before and after Your resurrection. It was very hard to You with us, as doubtful as we were; it was very hard for You, Lord. We doubted at the news of the witnesses of Your resurrection, and even then we doubted before You in Galilee, in the mountain where You planned to appear resurrected before us, and we worshipped You then, but we also doubted, Lord, and You were aggrieved. When You clothed us within the garment of the Holy Spirit in the day of Pentecost, then our spirit, clothed within the birth from above, was in the Holy Spirit, and we saw perfectly, and we knew it likewise, and we repented then for all Your pain from us. Oh, not the one who knows God, not that one is he who loves God. He who loves God is he who is known by God and the love of God in man is not otherwise, Lord. You knew our doubt and rebuked us for our unbelief, and in this way You proved Yourself that You are He Who knows all things, and then we loved You, and by the Holy Spirit, the Omniscient in us, we knew You and loved You, after You showed us that You knew us. Oh, how beautiful it would be for the man to love You after You show him that You know him! However, the man gets upset when You tell him about his sin on the earth. «He who loves God is he who is known by God», as it is written in the Scriptures for Your disciples, but this mystery is too foreign to the man’s heart and feeling, Lord, and the man is not supposed to go wrong, if he cannot repent, if he cannot kill his sin, for the sin, which is not killed breeds offspring, Lord. Oh, the sin that is not confessed is that which breeds offspring, and woe to the one who does not confess with 4
