THE POWER OF LOVE On this Rael said: “Lord and Master, this promise fills me with great joy, for I know who gave it to me, and it will therefore certainly come true. That is why I will not ask further and leave everything up to Your love and mercy.

[GGJ.11_26,02] But I suppose that it would be permitted to ask something else? You said that the sense of art is a standard of measurement for the spiritual progress of the nations, to such degree that it shows their spiritual understanding. The Greeks, and through them also the Romans, have certainly attainted to a high degree in the joy of making works of art, but it cannot be denied that their morals are not at the level of the pure, moral feeling. How can this be compatible with Your words?”

[GGJ.11_26,03] I said: “I told you that man‘s open soul – making it possible for him to make things purely artistic – can also be wrongly directed. If the soul is capable to receive impressions, he can form them as he likes. But a purely animal- like human being will never be able to make an ideal work of art. Also the possibility to receive bad things depends on the openness of the soul. And from the moment that a sinner, who up to then threw himself with his bad love into all sensualities but took the courage by his will to destroy his bad love, can in the same measure come into the true love and be active. If this were not so, there would not be sudden repentances which you yourselves have seen in life while you were with Me, because what matters is always the power of love, whether it is bad or good. Its true nature will be immediately recognized from its works.

[GGJ.11_26,04] This is why no one should condemn or scold his brother who is still imprisoned in bad love and who does bad works by its power, but rather feel only compassion for him and try to move him towards repentance through personal, righteous love, because the one who despises him does not know whether I will not send a strong stimulation of will to sustain him by which the one, who was apparently lost, would very quickly change his bad love into 133 good love and will then stand before Me spiritually more justified than even the one who scold him.

[GGJ.11_26,05] Would I make such great effort for the lost son if I did not know how big and all compassing his love is, that is now directed wrongly but that can again be directed towards Me? Only for the fact that this turnaround can for every fallen spirit or human being happen in an instant is why the Father does not curse His sons but rather pity them, invites them with love and even searches for them so that they can find the way to the House of the Father.

[GGJ.11_26,06] You can easily realize the measure of love and patience that is needed for that when you look at the enormous magnitude of the evils and immorality in the world that reached its peak precisely in this land, so that the divine love, as counterweight and stronger power, devours all that evilness and destroys it in itself. A little power cannot handle a stronger one in itself, at least not spiritually, but only a stronger one can embrace the weaker one and can finally lose it in itself without damage, and this is what happens.

[GGJ.11_26,07] For what concerns the Greeks and also the Romans, when those people will excessively use the spiritual qualities which they received, using them for their good life and stimulation of their sensuality, they will go to ruin as well. Admonitions at the right time will not lack, but when they will not care about them, such ulcer on the body will have to be burned away and often cut away in great pain so that the body can be preserved.

[GGJ.11_26,08] But I can tell you that the nations have up to now not found the stability in them to remain constantly pure in themselves. That stability can only be reached after slow discipline and difficult education.

[GGJ.11_26,09] However, I, Your teacher, came to the Earth to show them the best ways. And because I am the teacher and the sage of all worlds, the goal will certainly be reached, although along ways that a carnal human being will interpret incorrectly, but for someone who is already spiritually awakened in the flesh and for a purely spiritual person it will be easily understood.”

[GGJ.11_26,10] On this, Rael said: “Lord, what you told us now is certainly very true and correct, and no one can doubt it, no matter how, because You, who are the Lord Yourself, declared it to us and have informed us Yourself. However, there is a special question that I often asked myself but could never find an answer, and that is: why are the Jews now actually the people that are called, and why actually did You come down precisely to this place?

[GGJ.11_26,11] I myself as a Jew am certainly very glad that I am an offshoot of this favored people, but on the other hand, in my freethinking mind I cannot hide that nowadays it are precisely the Jews, despite the fact that they are expecting the Messiah, that are by far the ones who offer the most unsuited soil for the spreading of a spiritual teaching for the soul as You give it. The Romans and Greeks could be much more suitable for that because since already a long time they showed by their philosophy how much they are longing for something better than what their teaching about the gods can offer them. Also, a much faster spreading of Your teachings could be expected from Rome than from the stubborn Jerusalem. The Jews are probably only satisfied with a very exalted position of power – this is certainly what they want – and all the knowledge of the soul they sell for the price, to exchange Jerusalem for Rome.

[GGJ.11_26,12] In Your omniscience You certainly must have known this long before Your coming. What then is the actual reason why You nevertheless chose that ungrateful people?”
