which became life and word from God in him and upon him, and John was a prophet. He learned
from Me how to know God, and the Spirit of the Father revealed everything to him and the
Father worked upon him and he knew how to have mercy on the people. John, cleaned the
people from their sins and gave them to God, putting in them the spirit of repentance for their
sins, which had separated them from God, and he rebuked or scolded those who did not repent,
for John was full of God’s grace and had mercy on the people and preached to them that the
kingdom of God had come for those who wanted to have it in them against the wrath that came
from God on the earth for the sons of disobedience to God.
Oh, My people of today, oh, I teach you the mystery of mercy so that you may not go
wrong against God by this feeling. You should not have mercy on the man’s hardships or
sufferance, no, no, because this does not lead man to the good, but you should rather have
mercy on the lack of God in man, and because of which many evil things come upon him, for
he alone calls them upon him, because where the Lord is not in man and with man, as the Lord’s
face asks, there is a reward from the tempter and the tempter asks for permission from the
Lord upon man, for the man’s works are divided and many are to the will of the devil, and the
spirit of the devil is used by man because of his lack of God in him. I teach you the work of
mercy, son. Oh, the mercy that harms the man and his neighbor destroys everything that might
remain for God in man, for man bows to man and slaps My hand when I apply correction to
man or atonement by sufferance so that I may not let him completely as payment for satan, who
gives the man work without holy things in it. Oh, when you help the one to whom I sent
reproof for his waking up, what do you do man? Are you any better than Me? Do you do
better to that one? On the other hand, you make him feel aggrieved and do not let him
into My making hand when he goes wrong. I want to free the man from the sin of haugh-
tiness and I do this through everything I have sent him, for when haughtiness is in man it
has its head hidden so that the man may not know its face, but I know that the man’s
entire fall comes from haughtiness and from his lack of repentance, and he who cannot
humble himself against his pride, I, the Lord, want to help him giving him sufferance,
weakness and atonement, and what are you doing if you bow to lecture him, to sympathize
with him and to understand him in his wandering away? Do you really believe that your
work comes to Me when you slap My hand, when I work for the man’s salvation and for
his protection from eternal death? Oh, when man does not humble himself against his
haughtiness then you help him not to humble and you make him think that he is worthy
for your bowing before him. Oh, what foolishness, what foolishness from both sides and
what sin this is against each other! Oh, what foolishness when man does not want to know
what God and His good work for man mean and what man means! Behold, there is no
wisdom on earth as it was in John, the Baptizer. Man thinks that he is wise that he does
the man’s will well, that he comforts his neighbor, that he has right against another man
or that he is wronged, as one who stands well in all things before Me. However, he does
not know, poor of him, that I like the humble one to be as I was, that I like the despised
one, the patient and forgiving one through love as I was and who cannot punish or envy
the one who is hostile to him. Oh, I like the one who tries to wake up the man to repent-
ance, to humility, to reverence, and all these to the man’s salvation, as John, the Baptizer,
was working for man. Oh, I like the one who works like Me with man because of the lack
of God in man. Mercy does not have to be shown to the one without God in himself, but
he rather has to be woken up to spiritual inclination and then to the cleanness of himself,
for woe to the one who has got friends who join him when he does not stand well with
God! Woe to the one who is overlooked for his lack of order, for a man like that dies, and
the one who justifies himself from the sides is dead and kills the life of those whom he
