‘Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained....’ These, too, are Words of Mine which were frequently interpreted differently than I had intended them. Only a person with an awakened spirit who hears My voice and conveys My explanation to you is able to correct this, so that you can liberate yourselves from error and know the truth.... My disciples were endowed with the power of working miracles in My name, of healing, of reviving the dead and thereby proving to people the strength of their undivided belief in Me. Their spiritual state allowed for all supernatural activity, for when My spirit poured into them it filled them with strength and light, with power and wisdom. Hence they were able to spread the truth because they knew it themselves, and by the mere voicing of words they were able to achieve things which exceeded all human ability. For they had been My disciples.... I had instructed them through the inner Word while I lived on earth, they lived in love and believed in Me, therefore they were also able to accept My spirit within themselves and work through it. These extraordinary acts were signs of their souls’ maturity which, in turn, were intended to prove to people what extraordinary abilities a person can achieve if he lives according to My will, that is, if he shapes himself after My image.... into love.... For love is strength, consequently, a person who loves is also permeated by strength and light, because he can be permeated by the spirit of God, His emanation of strength. And I exemplified to people a life of love.... I demonstrated to them how much strength the human being can attain and after My death I left living examples behind which were meant to proclaim My teaching of love again to demonstrate their strength and thus make it easier for people to believe in Me.... Even if I was no longer visible, I Myself was in the midst of My disciples in spirit.... I guided them, since everything that is permeated by My spirit is subject to My divine guidance.... because I Myself was subsequently able to take effect through those who were working in My name. Hence the disciples had the same power and the same right, because everything they accomplished was My will; they were enlightened by My spirit, which is the emanation of Myself. Consequently, they also had the power to forgive sins in My name, especially if illness was the result of sins and, in order to cure this illness, they had to remit the human being’s sins as well. However, if they recognised a person’s unworthiness, his unbelief and God-opposing will, they were just as entitled to leave him in his sinful state, for they were not governed by human understanding but by the divine spirit within them, My spirit, which knows everything and thus also a person’s unworthiness and the futility of a merciful action on him. Thus I gave My disciples the right to grant to people according to their realisation, because My spirit was active in them and guaranteed that My disciples thought correctly....
But now people assume the same right even though My spirit is not effective in them as yet.... They associated the right to forgive or retain sins with the person itself and not with the divine spirit in this person and thus conferred this right to all followers of the disciples according to the word and not according to the spirit and therefore misunderstood the meaning of My Word, although they would also think correctly if they realised who is really My disciple.... Not those who appoint themselves but those who I have appointed for their teaching ministry on earth.... For I gave My disciples the instruction ‘Go ye therefore, and teach all nations....’ But in order to teach, My spirit must be effective in them so that they will be able to distribute the pure truth to people and to spread My commandment of love in the world. Yet the truth can only be taken possession of through the working of the spirit. Therefore, it is imperative that My disciples must be enlightened by the spirit of God before they can count themselves as My disciples. In that case they will also be permeated by light and strength and able to accomplish extraordinary feats , the power of the spirit will enable them to heal the sick, thus to release people from sin and its consequences as soon as they believe in Me and My name.... To these spiritually enlightened people I gave the power of forgiving sins, since they also recognise in their spiritually mature state when a person deserves to have his sins forgiven, for then they will act on My behalf and it is I Who really forgives their sins. But if people feel themselves appointed to carry out the act of forgiveness of sin even though they have never been called by Me Myself, who are neither enlightened by My spirit nor hear My Word within themselves, their calling can rightfully be disputed, since this is already demonstrated by the fact that they are incapable of recognising their fellow human being in order to judge whether to remit his sins or to let him keep them. The assessment of this already presupposes the working of the spirit which, however, has to be denied to most of those who deem themselves called as servants of God as long as they do not possess the inner Word. Only through My Word are they called to work for Me, for only My Word gives them knowledge, that is, it conveys the pure truth to them, and this is absolutely necessary in order to be able to work for Me. Anyone who knows the truth can also pass it on and thereby helps his fellow human being to achieve liberation. Anyone who has My Word will also have the competence of judgment when a person’s will is inclined towards God. For the human being’s spoken word is often deceptive, the heart need not be involved in what is voiced by the mouth. But a true disciple has the gift of recognising his fellow human being and therefore also knows which person is serious about the forgiveness of his sin and does not allow himself to be misled by many words which lack inner conviction. Therefore, the remission of sin cannot be a general act since it can only take place if it was preceded by profound repentance and recognised as such by My disciples. But in that case the judgment of the latter will be valid before Me, for he only acts on My instructions and his deed is according to My will. With those Words I gave My disciples the understanding that their activity and thinking will be in complete concordance with Me if they work for Me in My name, that they cannot think and want anything else but what is My will if the divine spirit is working in them which, however, characterises them as My disciples in the first place. For I Myself appoint My servants on earth because I truly know who is qualified for this ministry and upon whom I can endow those gifts which are required by a teaching ministry on earth.... And to them I will also give the authority, for then they will only carry out My will....
Amen

‘Čije god grijehe otpustite, otpušteni su im; a čije god grijehe zadržite, oni su zadržani....’ Ovo su, također, Moje Riječi koje su često bile drugačije protumačene nego Sam ih bio namijenio. Jedino osoba sa probuđenim duhom koja čuje Moju Riječ i saopći/prenese vam Moje objašnjenje je sposobna ovo ispraviti, tako da sebe možete osloboditi od zablude i upoznati Istinu.... Moji su učenici bili obdareni sa moći vršenja čudesa u Moje ime, liječenja, oživljavanja mrtvih dokazujući na taj način ljudima snagu njihovog nepodijeljenog vjerovanja u Mene. Njihovo je duhovno stanje dozvoljavalo svu natprirodnu aktivnost, jer kada se Moj Duh izlio u njih on ih je ispunio sa snagom i svjetlom, sa moći i mudrošću. Otud su oni bili sposobni širiti Istinu budući su je oni sami poznavali, i time samo što su izgovarali Riječi oni su bili sposobni ostvarivati stvari koje su prevazilazile ljudsku sposobnost. Jer oni su bili Moji učenici.... Ja Sam ih podučio kroz unutarnju Riječ dok sam živio na Zemlji, oni su živjeli u Ljubavi i vjerovali u Mene, prema tome su bili također sposobni prihvatiti Moj Duh unutar sebe samih i djelovati kroz njega. Ova izvanredna djela su bili znaci zrelosti njihovih duša koja su, zauzvrat, bili naumljena dokazati ljudima koje izvanredne sposobnosti čovjek može postići ako živi sukladno Mojoj volji, to jest, ako on sebe oblikuje po Mojoj slici.... u Ljubav.... jer Ljubav je snaga, posljedično tome, čovjek koji ljubi je također prožet snagom i svjetlom, budući on može biti prožet od strane Duha Božjega, Njegovog zračenja snage. I Ja Sam ukazao primjerom ljudima život Ljubavi.... Demonstrirao Sam im koliko puno snage ljudsko biće može postići i nakon Moje smrti ostavio Sam iza žive primjere koji su trebali proglasiti Moje učenje Ljubavi iznova da bi demonstrirali njihovu snagu i tako olakšali ljudima da vjeruju u Mene.... Pa čak ako Ja više nisam bio vidljiv, Ja Osobno Sam bio među Mojim učenicima u duhu.... Ja Sam ih vodio, budući je sve što je prožeto od strane Mojega Duha predmetom Mojeg Božanskog vođenja.... budući Sam Ja Osobno bio naknadno sposobnan ostvariti učinak kroz one koji su djelovali u Moje ime. Otud su učenici imali istu moć i isto pravo, budući je sve što su oni ostvarili bila Moja volja; oni su bili prosvjetljeni od strane Mojega Duha, koji je zračenje Mene Samoga. Posljedično tome, oni su također imali vlast oprostiti grijehe u Moje ime, posebice ako je bolest bila rezultat grijeha i, kako bi izliječili ovu bolest, oni su trebali također otpustiti grijehe ljudskog bića. Međutim, ako su oni prepoznali nedostojnost/nevrijednost osobe, njegovu nevjeru i Bogu-protivnu volju, oni su isto tako bili ovlašteni ostaviti ga u njegovom grešnom stanju, jer oni nisu bili vođeni ljudskim razumijevanjem nego od strane Božanskog Duha unutar njih, Mojega Duha, koji zna sve i stoga također nedostojnost osobe i ispraznost milosrdnog djelovanja na njemu. Time Sam Ja dao Mojim učenicima pravo da ljudima podare sukladno njihovom shvaćanju, budući je Moj Duh bio aktivan u njima i garantirao da su Moji učenici razmišljali ispravno....
Ali sada ljudi prisvajaju isto pravo premda Moj Duh u njima još nije učinkovit.... Oni su povezali pravo da otpuste ili zadrže grijehe sa samom osobom a ne sa Božanskim Duhom u čovjeku i tako su prenijeli ovo pravo na sve sljedbenike učenika sukladno riječi a ne sukladno duhu i prema tome su pogrešno razumjeli značenje Moje Riječi, premda bi oni također razmišljali ispravno da su shvatili tko je uistinu Moj učenik.... Ne oni koji sebe odrede nego oni koje Sam Ja odredio za njihovu učiteljsku službu na Zemlji.... Jer Ja Sam dao Mojim učenicima uputu ‘Idite dakle, i podučavajte sve narode....’ (Matej 28:19; Marko 16:15) Ali kako bi podučavali, Moj Duh mora biti aktivan u njima tako da će oni biti sposobni distribuirati Čistu Istinu ljudima i raširiti Moju zapovijed Ljubavi u svijetu. Ipak u posjed Istine se može doći jedino kroz djelovanje Duha. Prema tome imperativ je da Moji učenici moraju biti prosvjetljeni od strane Božjeg Duha prije nego sebe mogu uračunati u Moje učenike. U tom slučaju oni bi također bili prožeti od strane svjetla i snage i bili sposobni ostvariti izvanredne podvige, sila Duha bi im omogućila da liječe bolesne, stoga da oslobode ljude od grijeha i njegovih posljedica čim oni vjeruju u Mene i Moje ime.... Ovim duhovno prosvjetljenim ljudima Sam Ja dao vlast opraštanja grijeha, budući su oni također prepoznali u njihovom zrelom stanju kada osoba zaslužuje da mu njegovi grijesi budu oprošteni, jer onda će oni djelovati namjesto Mene i Ja Sam to Koji doista oprašta njihove grijehe. Ali ako ljudi osjećaju za sebe kako su određeni/imenovani sprovoditi čin opraštanja grijeha premda oni nikada nisu bili pozvani od strane Mene Osobno, koji su niti prosvjetljeni od strane Mojega Duha niti čuju Moju Riječ unutar njih samih, njihov poziv može sa pravom biti osporen, budući je ovo već demonstrirano činjenicom da su oni nesposobni raspoznati njihovo bližnje ljudsko biće kako bi prosudili da li otpustiti njegove grijehe ili mu pustiti da ih zadrži. Procjenjivanje ovog već pretpostavlja djelovanje Duha (1 Korinćanima 12:10) koje, međutim, mora biti zanijekano većini onih koji sebe smatraju pozvanima kao sluge Božje sve dok oni ne posjeduju unutarnju Riječ. Jedino kroz Moju Riječ su oni pozvani raditi za Mene, jer jedino Moja Riječ im daje znanje, to jest, ona im dostavlja Čistu Istinu, i ovo je apsolutno nužno kako bili sposobni raditi za Mene. Svatko tko poznaje Istinu ju može također predati dalje i na taj način pomaže njegovim bližnjim ljudskim bićima da postignu oslobođenje. Svatko tko ima Moju Riječ će također imati mjerodavnost prosudbe kada je čovjekova volja naklonjena spram Boga. Jer izgovorena riječ ljudskog bića je često obmanjujuća, srce ne mora biti uključeno u ono što je izgovoreno od strane usta. Ali istiniti učenik ima dar prepoznavanja njegovog bližnjeg ljudskog bića i prema tome također zna koja je osoba ozbiljna u svezi opraštanja njegovih grijeha i ne dopusta sebi da bude zaveden mnogim riječima kojima nedostaje unutarnjeg uvjerenja. Prema tome, otpuštanje grijeha ne može biti općeniti čin budući se on može dogoditi jedino ako mu je prethodilo vrlo duboko pokajanje i kao takvo prepoznato od strane Mojih učenika. Ali u tom slučaju prosudba potonjeg će biti valjana preda Mnom, jer on jedino djeluje na Moje poduke i njegovo je djelo sukladno Mojoj volji. Sa ovim Riječima Sam dao Mojim učenicima razumijevanje da će njihova aktivnost i razmišljanje biti u potpunoj suglasnosti sa Mnom ako oni rade za Mene u Moje ime, da oni ne mogu misliti i željeti išta drugo nego što je Moja volja ako Božanski Duh djeluje u njima što ih, međutim, karakterizira kao Moje učenike na prvom mjestu. Jer Ja Osobno Sam odredio Moje učenike na Zemlji budući Ja uistinu znam tko je kvalificiran za ovu službu i kome mogu dati ove darove koji se zahtjevaju za učiteljsku službu na Zemlji.... I njima ću Ja također dati vlast/autoritet, jer onda će oni jedino sprovoditi Moju volju.
AMEN
