Do you believe that at the time of My Second Coming there will be
better comprehension among men? Not in the least! Then, too, there
will be many admirers who will regard Me as nothing more than a man
inspired by God. At My Second Coming I will, of course, not come as a
child, but as a mature man, and there, too, will be many doubters to
whom I shall have to prove My Deity through miracles as the power of
the Word would not convince them.
The story of My childhood will repeat itself in its main
points and events, but only in a spiritual sense, for then
the spiritual understanding will be far more developed, so
that the believers will be in the majority, the
non-believers and doubters in a minority.
Behold, My children, as I once submitted Myself to the
Jewish custom of circumcision, you should submit yourselves
to a spiritual baptism, the baptism with the spirit of My
love. Eliminate from your hearts what does not belong there,
and begin to understand Me and My world better every day, so
that your hearts may not be pierced by a sword because by
attributing too much importance to worldly things you mourn
what is not worth mourning.
Make sure that you see things as they really are and that
you daily fulfill your duty on this earth while you have to
live here, so that when the grave hour of departure has come
you have no regrets and need not mourn anything.
May you recognize Me, as Mary did when I returned to the
Father, and understand that He whom you know as Christ is by
far greater and more loving than you have imagined, but that
also My demands on you are more severe than you thought.
There are many today who believe in Me and love Me as did
Mary during My life on earth. However, this is not enough.
Mary recognized only at the cross and on My resurrection
that He whom she had borne was not a man but the Son of God,
that is, Wisdom that had been separated from Love, Who
returned to His heavens after three days in the grave and
afterwards appeared to His disciples and the mother of His
human body not physically but spiritualized.
See to it that Christ may rise also within you.
