When man wants the Lord, when he loves Him and waits for Him always, he brings the Lord near him just as Abraham brought Him, and if you know to look well into the Scriptures of Abraham’s encounter with the Lord under the oak tree, then you will learn the Lord near you and you will know Him mysteriously and you will speak with Him as Abraham did, and as He spoke with Abraham. Behold the sight of the eyes of the spirit, the eyes of the faith, the eyes that see like God and not like man, but Abraham’s woman saw like a man and worked like a man, for she saw with the eyes of the body and that was all, and she spoke for God likewise, she spoke like a man; however, Abraham saw like God, spoke like God and spoke with God; he spoke with God not with a man or with God’s messenger, but with God Who was divided in three parts to work threefold like God by His coming to Abraham. Oh, peace to you and joy for Me with you at the table of the feast of God’s angels! I embrace you, I comfort you with My exhortation and I advise you to heaven and to the truth of life, and may your faith and love help you to become according to My will; may it teach you the work and the life of God’s sons. May the wisdom of your carried cross teach you the work of martyrdom so that you may be able to become My disciples and that I may also work with you the endless mystery in the end of the time: a new heaven and a new earth for My faithful ones, the kingdom of the saints, as it is written. Be full of the spirit of humility, sons! I give you the forgiveness of your sins by the humility which urges you to repentance, and repentance is God’s love; it is the feeling of the searching after God, in which I want you to remain, because it is the image of the first love, the moment when you seek to find Me, to love Me and then to follow Me with longing. Oh, learn from My spring of word upon you and be My friends and My brothers in humility, sons, for here it is what I am telling you: it is written in the Scriptures that God stands against the proud and gives grace to the humble, and He stands against the proud by those around them, and to the humble He gives grace for those around them, and be- hold how close to you the Lord is, as close as He was to Abraham then under the oak! I teach you the mystery and the work of the faith when I speak so clearly to you, so detailed, the thread of the work of the faith. He who humbles himself will be exalted and he who exalts himself will be humbled and thrown down by his self-exaltation, for Abraham humbled himself and was exalted to see God, and his wife exalted herself in her thought and was humbled by her self-exaltation, as she saw this, she saw that the Lord spoke for her and she exalted herself and did not believe. Sons, I have redeemed you from sin by My sacrifice with sufferance, and you have to be redeemed for Me for your salvation through repentance so that your sin may be wiped out because the Lord suffered pain and contempt and death on your account, for man’s sin is set face to face with God and by sin man separates himself from God, and I, in order to redeem him, laid down My life. Oh, listen so that you may fulfill in you the word of My teach- ing, for obedience shows you that you have humility, and then humility brings you grace, for it becomes grace, and the grace works for you and it becomes word in you to be able to say by My grace: “Oh, how great is Your goodness, which You have laid up for those who fear You, which You have worked for those who take refuge in You, before the sons of men! In the shelter of Your presence You will hide them from the plotting of men. You will keep them secretly in a dwelling away from the strife of tongues, for Your mercy is great.” (Ps: 31/19, 20) 2
