You should have mercy. This is the heavenly wealth: you should put all of your relatives into God’s wealth. With your mercy you redeem those from the pond, those from hell. Your earthly possessions are of no good to you. Mercy redeems the living and the dead from the sins. Mercy, did you hear?

Excerpt from the Word of God, from 16-08-1974

***

 

The poor from My people who receive mercy, you should reward My mercy by praying for the one who gave to you and for the dead to whom it was given. Do not be like the gipsy from the door of the church, who ask for alms, and do not pray for the one who had mercy on him.

Excerpt from the Word of God, from 14-01-1975

Sons, you should do merciful deeds to the poor, for if the rich man receives, he takes it home and gives it to the pigs. If he likes the pork meat, let him grow the pig with clean food, so that he may also take with his spoon from his food, and when the pig escapes and eats any dirt, you should read what is written into the Holy Scripture.

Excerpt from the Word of God, from 29-09-1988

Do not give out of mercy to drunkards, fornicators, smokers, and to those who blaspheme God by trespassing. Do merciful deeds also to those from the word, but only to those who listen and receive the Word of God now and again.

Excerpt from the Word of God, from 02-07-1992

Oh, sons of men, take within you My speaking that is upon you. The man who helps another man in his need but he does not do God’s will in his body, soul and spirit, that one is deprived of God’s knowledge. If the man’s work does not bring to godliness the man who takes from man, that work is temporary. It is written in the Scriptures: "The flesh profits nothing; it is the Spirit who gives life". (John: 6/63) Man deceives man. Man separates himself from God, for the whole earth and every man has been filled with human works that keep the man away from God and which make the man think that he does God’s will. Nevertheless, I speak again the word of the Holy Spirit and say: if the man’s work does not make godly the man who takes from man, that work is darkness and it does not make any light and it does not produce any fruit for heaven. It is in vain that the earth has been filled up with the works of the pagans, for those who do not fulfill God’s commandments are pagans on earth. It is in vain that the people boast about their good works for the people who do not do God’s will. It is in vain, oh sons of men, if your hands help the wrongdoers, who do the same evil things like you. It is in vain, for the hands, which give and take in this way, are dirty hands and there is no good fragrance in them for heaven, for the Lord loves those who are from heaven and He is merciful to those who lack those from heaven and not those from the earth. Your good works are in vain, oh, sons of men, for you do not make them for the Lord, and you rather make them for people like you. Oh, if you made them for those who fulfill My plans on earth, then it would be for you to work them for God, Who works hard on earth to fulfill His preaching of new heaven and new earth and of new man, in God’s image and after His likeness.

 

It is in vain to pretend that you are God’s friends, oh, sons of men, for those who know God, they have the Holy Spirit and work out the Lord’s justice over the earth. Oh, it is in vain that you rush without Me to fulfill the Scriptures of My second coming among people, as you say. Oh, it is in vain, oh, men’s sons, for those are not My Scriptures, but they are yours, for it is written into My Scriptures: "He comes like a thief; He comes all of a sudden. When no one expects, then the Lord comes". (See also Apoc: 16/15)

 

Receive My speaking upon you into your mind, oh, sons of men, who do the work of false christ. Shudder with the miracle of My voice, which comes with the clouds above the garden of My word, the new earth in which God’s justice dwells. Take away the spirit of falsehood from you and join with the word of the Holy Spirit, which brings into the light the hypocrisy hidden in the man of falsehood of this age, for man upon man separates himself from God by serving the spirit of lying, and the whole earth and every man have been filled with human works which make the man believe that he does God’s will on earth.

 

Oh, sons of men, he who comes before Me into My name, that one is a false prophet; he is not the Christ of the Father, for I come like a thief, suddenly. Behold, I have proved out the hypocrisy hidden in the lying man of this age, for the Holy Spirit comes from heaven and is preached over the earth, and He makes clean paths to every heart, which leaves off falsehood and the old man in man. This is what I spoke to those who were clean and faithful to Me:  "If you love Me, keep My commandments. And I will pray to the Father, and He will give you another Counselor, that He may be with you forever, until I come again with My flesh among you and give you My eternity, and you will be like Me, because you will see Me as I am". (See John: 14/15; 1 John: 3/2 …) Amen

Sons, the dead come to life at the voice of My word. Only those that are haughty do not want to come to life, but they will stand before Me whether they like it or not, and they will melt like wax, as I am the First and the Last, and I come with much power and with much greatness, as it is written into the Scriptures of My second coming from heaven on the earth, for the earth is My footstool. Amen. The man says in vain that he took My earth from under My feet. Soon, soon, every man will see that he is weak and will receive Me whether he wants it or not, because I come and I am clothed in the garment of justice. Amen. But you, sons of My greatness, I have always taught you to keep away from My judgment, doing My will before Me. Do many merciful deeds, as much as you could, as mercy is a candle with oil, a burning candle14. Give Me over as a gift to every man who reaches out his hand for heavenly food. Also give Me to the one who is ashamed with Me and who does not reach out his hand but only stealthily. Give God as mercy to all who do not want the heavenly food, as I, the Lord, give them the bitter bread of anxiety to those who are careless of the soul. I make them all anxious to the hearing of My word, and a fire will be kindled all around and it will threaten the earth with fire and judgment, but My country with My manger in it will be the throne of My word, out of which a word of consuming and cleansing fire will flow over the man and over the earth. (See the selection topic: "The apocalyptic fire", r.n.)

 

Give God as mercy, messenger sons of My coming. I am the Word of God for the coming of Christ, the Son of the Father, and I share Myself through you as My coming upon every man. I call out the trumpet. The word is the trumpet, and Michael, My angel, is the angel of My gift upon you. Let My word come to you from one margin of the heaven to another and let the iniquity on the earth burn, as I make a new haven and a new earth, and a new and just man between heaven and earth, and the haughtiness will fall into the abyss. Amen.

 

I come with the good and eternal news for you; I come with a glorious time upon you, sons, and emperors and kings will follow you, as My great power and high glory will be with you and on you, and those, who did not love you because of Me, will lament, and the rich people, who did not do merciful deeds for God, will lament, as My coming had called out to them, but they had hidden themselves under their richness and left the right way. Behold, it is written: "They will build houses and will not dwell in them; they will buy fallow lands and will not have them; they will plant vineyards and will not eat of their fruit".

 

Oh, children of My coming, I am with the time from heaven upon you, an endless age, not with a time as on earth. Give this mercy to those who want to become sons of the Father, as to those, who believe the word of My coming now, I give power to become the sons of My Father, sons born of God, of the Word of God, as you also are, as it is written:

"The dead will rise at My trumpet", at My word which is with you calling all the nations to a new and forever new age. Amen, amen, amen.

I come with resurrection on you. The mystery of My being in man is the food, on which I have been feeding you for such a long time. If My being is in man, it is seen that it is, as I hide under a mystery, and those who are seen in man, are My works through the man; they are My being in the man, who has Me in him. I would like that the man, who thinks that he has Me in him, may be ashamed; to be ashamed, if My being in him is not seen that it is. I would like the man to understand what the Lord in man means. The faithful and humble man, the holy man in his mind, in his heart and in his body, is a dwelling place of My mystery, a dwelling place where I dwell to be seen by the one in whom I dwell.

 

I come with resurrection for you. I teach you resurrection, sons from the gates. Take and give to those who are destitute of resurrection. Take My resurrection in you. But how is this richness given? It is a great mystery what I ask you now. The one, who does not have resurrection, cannot give what he has not got. In vain those on the earth make so much ado, so much boasting and so much noise. In vain those, who are dressed in garments of saints and priests, say that they impart resurrection. The one, who does not have resurrection in him, has nothing to give, but the one who is rich in resurrection, has, and gives resurrection all around him.

 

Oh, I am with the days of resurrection between heaven and earth. Those from heaven rejoice and dance in a day of a resurrection feast, but those on the earth do not reach to the mystery of the joy of resurrection. This joy belongs to the saints, as it was two thousand years ago. The others, both then and now, shared and share something else, but no resurrection. The man dresses with new clothes, with new footwear, with good and much food, with music, with drunkenness, and with fornication, and this is a feast without God, not a feast of resurrection. Behold, everything is old like man, and everything is dead like man. It is nothing like resurrection or feast of resurrection or joy of resurrection. On the day of My resurrection, My disciples were filled with the Holy Spirit through the humility, which came over them for My resurrection. I filled them with resurrection afterwards, and I sent them to impart it, and they did as I told them. I made them new little clothes, little clothes of Holy Spirit; new footwear, sandals of apostleship; resurrection food, My word full of life; a praised song, Christ’s resurrection; a new wine poured out in the vessels of their hearts, holy by the faith of My resurrection; good behavior and humbleness. This is how they celebrated the day of their Lord’s resurrection; this way and not having new clothes and new shoes, food, drinking, music and a spirit of unrestrained joy, for the man got used to celebrate the feast of My resurrection.

 

And you, children of resurrection, do not stay without resurrection. I come with resurrection over you. Receive and give to those who are destitute of resurrection, and I will pour out a double portion on you, and from where you take and give, it will be multiplied to you and will not run dry. But how is this resurrection given? Here is how: teach those who seek Me to get out of their sin. Amen. He, who does not get out of his sins, cannot receive resurrection. I cannot take image in the one that does not get out from under his sin. Resurrection is My image in man, My holy nature in man. I was tempted in everything, like man has been, yet without sin. Set yourselves, day and night, to a work of resurrection over every soul, which seeks freedom in Christ. It is impossible for the sin to make its nest into the man’s body, if the man does not choose it, or if the man does not love it. "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself"; this is what I said, and I also said that everyone should have his own cross and not follow Me without his cross. I said: If someone comes, let him have life and resurrection, and let him not come after Me without life, without crucifixion and without resurrection.

 

Oh, loved sons, I wanted to make out of Me and you, out of My work with you, a joy for the people, but the people have their own pleasures,
