who is in charge within a monastery, r.n.), that he was about to leave the brothers (The brothers
from the monastery, r.n.), and he said that he got three golden coins which he had hidden from
the brothers, and when the abbot found out about this was aggrieved with the salvation of the
soul of this greedy brother, and being spiritual, he thought how to bring this one to repentance
before his departure from his body, and he thought to bring him into a great distress and in this
way to leave the body and to bury him after that in the manure. Then he brought the other
brothers together to a spirit of deep instruction for their salvation and, then, they also being
under his submission, he told them that if they were called by the one suffering to death among
them, they should not go to him, for that brother had to be brought to repentance and they to
great wisdom, and when they were called at the head of the sick one, the abbot told him that the
brothers do not come because they were disgusted at him for the hidden golden coins and be-
cause he was to be buried in manure. This is what the abbot did when the sick one left his body
and was put into manure as decided, and after thirty days all were moved with compassion and
took counsel together to bring intercession for him on the altar so that he might be forgiven,
and then there it was revealed to them about the one who left, and he who left his body was
asked by them how he was getting on there and he answered them: “I have been badly off by
this time, but after I took communion with Christ’s body, after thirty days of remembrance for
my soul, I have moved into the light and I am at peace and I am comforted and delivered from
evil now, for there have been brought the prayers for me by the brothers and fathers.”
Oh, My people, My power and the power of My word spoken for the salvation of the
creature is great, but your faith in Me, in My word and in all that I establish by it has to be great
too. This little soul, remembered by you and Us today, was always under sin, but My work was
done for him and I comforted My trumpet, for she got great love from Me for this son who
listened to her in the time of the beginning of My work and then he left and did no longer listen,
but he did not do other kind of evil either, not any other damage to My work, and he went and
lived in his fallen state, poor of him, under the envy of the evil one, who was always lying in
ambush for My work in order to spoil it and so that it may no longer be. Now, I, the Lord, have
stretched out My hand to him and pulled him out of his snare and I have prepared him for the
leaving of his body; I have prepared him by faith and then by sufferance and by the love of
My today’s coming down, and then I passed him over the border, and in the time of his departure
from the body, I had at his head the shepherd that I set for My people, and this one gave him to
Me, and behold, according to My promise made to My trumpet that I would throw Myself after
him to take him out of the troubled waters in which he drowned, this is how I did, this is how I
worked and took him out to save him, but he left unprepared, because he had no power to
prepare his body for his union with Me by My sacrifice without blood for man. However, now,
I have given a word for his remembrance, for his forgiveness, and I will raise him to life in
the day of the celebration of My resurrection, when I will bring him to take the food of life
from My table, and he will be saved. Amen.
Oh, let those who are unfaithful to My work with such a great victory not marvel, for
the faithful one can do everything by faith, as it is written, and I can work by them. Amen.
Oh, this little soul was wretched and very much enslaved by satan! Oh, shall I not save him? I
will save him, I will save him! I, the Lord, promised this for a long time and this is what I am
going to fulfill now. Amen.
Oh, it is much harder for the rich and for those with wisdom earned on the earth, for
when I brought to knowledge about the rich man in hell and about the poor Lazarus in Abra-
ham’s bosom, I made it clear then how hard it was for the rich man to come among those in
