2452 Jesus Christ.... son of God....

August 20, 1942: Book 33

The divinity of Jesus is so often the controversial question which people who believe in Him as the son of God are asked to answer.... Once again, this question can only be answered correctly by people of faith; Jesus' divinity can be explained to them, whereas people without faith cannot muster any understanding for it since they neither recognize the existence of a wise, omnipotent and loving deity nor His activity. And thus it will also remain incomprehensible to them that God can let Himself, i.e. His spirit, emanate to people as well as to all beings which emerged from Him.... They do not realize that there is a connection between the creator and His creatures which can never ever end. Nor do they realize that this deity, Which can be always and everywhere, can also shelter Itself in all its fullness in a human external form.... that a human being can thus be permeated by His love, as it were.... permeated by His strength.... And that this human being then harbours so much divinity within himself that his whole being is also permeated by the spirit of God and now his truly divine nature allows him to become a child of God. And this will remain incomprehensible to him as long as he sets himself apart from the teaching of Christ, i.e. as long as he does not take the path that Christ took on earth.... the path of love.... For wisdom only comes through love. The loving person grasps this immediately, he needs no lengthy explanation because the power from God, His spirit, is already at work in him, because he is in the circuit of the divine emanation of love and consequently the effect of a right life of love is also understandable to him. Jesus Christ, however, led such a life of love on earth, and consequently He also stood in the midst of God's emanation of love.... He was seized by God's infinite love, He was radiated through by His spirit, and a strong will flowed through Him.... But love, spirit, power and will are the essence of the eternal deity.... Thus Jesus, too, had become like God, He was His image, He Himself was a divine being, He was the son of God Who could no longer be regarded as an individual being but was completely one with His father from eternity, Who recognized His unity with His father, strived for complete union with Him and, through His life of love, had already found union on earth....

Amen
