Work of the Spirit.... power from God....

Only in this way can the work of the spirit be understood, that man imagines a power that is active in him. He must make a distinction between the way the spirit works and the way the soul works. The soul is the breath of life, and every body will live if the soul dwells in it. However, it can lead a life with this soul which could be called mechanical, as it were.... that the body certainly carries out all functions which are necessary for life on earth, which it therefore could not do without the soul.... Yet it does so without any connection with God.... It only uses the ability to live received from God, yet not for God but exclusively for itself and for God's opposing power.... He has previously consciously requested his earthly life from God for the purpose of approaching Him but has now not fulfilled this purpose, however, he has fully utilized the soul's activity. He did not request the power from God.... the divine spirit.... which is the only way to approach God. He has ignored the divine spark that was given to him as God's most precious gift.... The spirit of love.... the divine in man was not active, and thus the spiritual spark was not awakened to life, and the power from God could not be transmitted to man. God cannot reveal Himself to man in the spirit.... the connection with God has not been established, so the rapprochement cannot take place.... it is not possible to bridge the separation as long as the spirit from God is not active in the human being. The spirit from God is the power of God.... A person can be alive and yet dead if spiritual rebirth has not taken place.... Contact with God must be sought.... through active love for the neighbour the divine in him must be brought to awakening, and then the spirit out of God will be active in man.... It will influence the soul to subordinate all thinking, doing and willing to this spirit within itself; the soul will no longer take the body's desires into account but will listen solely to the divine spirit within itself; God Himself will now express Himself. The spirit from God is placed into every human being, yet not every person utilizes this most precious thing within himself, and then his life on earth remains a failed one and has not brought the being any progress, for without awakening the spirit from God within himself the unification with the father-spirit cannot take place, which, however, is the only purpose in earthly life....

Amen

DJELOVANJE DUHA.... BOŽJA SNAGA....

Djelovanje Duha treba razumjeti jedino tako da čovjek sebi predoči jednu silu koja je aktivna u njemu. On mora načiniti razliku u vrsti i načinu aktivnosti Duha i one dušine. Duša je dah života, i svako tijelo će živjeti kada u njemu prebiva duša. Ali, on može sa ovom dušom voditi život, koji bi mogao biti nazvan takoreći mehaničkim.... da tijelo zaista obavlja sve funkcije koje su nužne za zemaljski život, što ono bez duše ne bi moglo. No, on to čini bez ikakve povezanosti s Bogom.... On samo koristi od Boga dobivenu sposobnost za život, no ne za Boga, nego isključivo za sebe i Bogu-protivnu moć.... On je prethodno svjesno zatražio svoj zemaljski život od Boga u svrhu približavanja Njemu, ali sada ne ispunjava ovu svrhu, a ipak u potpunosti koristi aktivnost duše. On nije zatražio snagu od Boga.... Božanskog Duha.... koja je jedina mogućnost za približavanje Bogu. On je Božansku iskru, koja mu je bila kao najdragocjeniji Božji dar, ostavio zanemarenu.... Duh Ljubavi.... Božansko u čovjeku.... nije bio aktivan, i time duhovna iskra nije bila probuđena u život, te Božja snaga nije mogla biti prenesena čovjeku. Bog se ne može otkriti čovjeku u duhu.... nije uspostavljena veza s Bogom, pa se ne može dogoditi ni približavanje.... nema nikakve mogućnosti da se premosti odvojenost, dok god Duh iz Boga nije aktivan u čovjeku. Duh iz Boga je Božja snaga.... Čovjek može živjeti, no ipak biti mrtav, ako se nije dogodilo duhovno nanovo-rođenje (preporod).... Treba biti tražen kontakt s Bogom.... Božansko u njemu treba biti dovedeno do buđenja kroz aktivnu Ljubav prema bližnjemu, i onda će Duh iz Boga biti aktivan u čovjeku.... Utjecat će na dušu, da svo mišljenje, činjenje i htijenje podloži ovom Duhu u sebi; duša više neće voditi računa o žudnji tijela, nego će isključivo slušati Božanski Duh u sebi; onda će Bog Sam Sebe očitovati. U svakog čovjeka je položen Duh iz Boga, ali ne koristi svaki čovjek ovaj najdragocjeniji dar u sebi, i onda njegov život na Zemlji ostaje promašen, i nije donio biću nikakav napredak, budući bez buđenja Božjeg Duha u sebi, ne može doći do sjedinjenja s Duhom Oca, što je međutim jedina svrha u zemaljskom životu.
