Svaki čovjek je osobno odgovoran za svoju dušu, i prema tome on sebe mora opravdati za svako loše/pokvareno/poročno/neispravno djelo baš kao i za svako izostavljanje/propuštanje dobrog djela. On za svoju krivnju/grijeh ne može kriviti druge ljude niti mu drugi ljudi mogu kompenzirati/nadoknaditi tu krivnju, već on sam osobno mora napraviti poboljšanja [[ili ‘is/po-pravke’]] na Zemlji ili u onostranom. I isto tako, on jedini je sposoban podići/popraviti svoje stanje zrelosti, ono mu ne može biti dano kao dar, već se on mora potruditi da živi svoj život u skladu sa Božjom voljom. Stoga on osobno/sam treba prihvatiti brigu za spasenje svoje duše, pošto ga ni jedno drugo ljudsko biće toga ne može osloboditi. Naknadno, on sebe također mora informirati o Božjoj volji i prihvatiti Njegovu Riječ, koja mu otkriva Božansku volju. I on onda treba dozvoliti/omogućiti Božjoj Riječi da postane djelotvorna [[ili ‘da stupi na snagu’]] u njemu. On prema tome ne bi trebao slijepo vjerovati [[u ono]] što mu ljudi žele predstaviti već to najprije treba usporediti sa Božjom Riječju, i jedino ako to u potpunosti korespondira sa potonjom on sebe može podrediti tom utjecaju.
Ako je čovjek odgovoran za sebe on je također odgovoran i za svoje vlastite mentalne koncepte/ideje. Posljedično on je obavezan temeljno proučiti što god mu je ponuđeno, pošto je baš to ono za što će odgovarati. On sebe ne može opravdati da su mu bile ponuđene greške i da na taj način nije bio u stanju pronaći istinu, već on mora uložiti vlastiti napor da bi otkrio istinu, koja će mu također biti ponuđena ako on za nju pita [[ili ‘ako ju zatraži’]]. Pošto će ga Bog prozvati na odgovornost jednog dana On će mu najprije dati svaku mogućnost da bude sposoban prepoznati i živjeti u skladu sa onim što je ispravno. Međutim, kada se čovjek oslanja na ono što mu je dano od strane drugih ljudi on zaobilazi svu osobnu odgovornost, on ju pokušava istovariti na drugu osobu koja ga je educirala. Ipak Bog mu je dao intelekt i dar razmišljanja, i koristeći taj dar on može odabrati za sebe što je ispravno i što Bog želi i djelovati sa time u skladu, posljedično on također [[za to]] može biti odgovoran.
Zbog toga, školski preneseno duhovno gradivo/znanje, time dakle i učenja koja čovjek školski prihvaća, ne mogu biti dovoljna za potpunu spoznaju Božje volje, sve dok se vlastitim razmišljanjem o tome u čovjeku ne probudi i uzdigne osjećaj odgovornosti.... A pri ozbiljnoj refleksiji će ljudsko biće shvatiti koja učenja su ljudima bila dana od strane Boga a koja učenja su im bila dodana od strane ljudi. Stoga, sa ciljem da u budućnosti bude odgovoran, čovjek se najprije treba pozabaviti sa primljenim znanjem i čineći tako, pod uvjetom da on ima žudnju za istinom, će on također biti u stanju razlikovati između istine i laži.... S obzirom na to da će dogmatsko učenje ugušiti u njemu njegov osjećaj odgovornosti, ono će ga zaista morati ugušiti, pošto će vjera u njega ili ispunjenje onog što se potražuje postati čisto mehanička stvar i osoba se više ne osjeća odgovornom za ono što ona vjeruje kako savjesno/pošteno čini. Jer što god ona čini je sa njezine strane učinjeno sa određenom količinom obaveze pošto je to od nje zahtjevano.... To nije djelo slobodne volje, iako je ona također sposobna odbiti ili ignorirati zahtjev, ali unutarnji poriv nedostaje koji bi trebao biti razlog za svaku akciju, za sve što Bog zahtjeva od ljudi.
Čovjek bi trebao biti svjestan činjenice da Bog jedino cijeni što on čini za ljubav [[ili ‘u ime ljubavi’]], da bi njegovo razmišljanje i akcije trebali stoga jedino biti vođeni ljubavlju i da je svaki nedostatak ljubavi grijeh protiv Boga, Koji je ljubav Osobno, i da ljudsko biće mora za to biti odgovorno. Prema tome, što god mu je naređeno učiniti, što god je on obavezan učiniti, negira slobodnu misao i akciju. I ljudsko biće u stvarnosti jedino polaže račun svijetu, tj. onima koji su mu nametnuli obavezu. Iz tog razloga duša ne može izvući veliku dobrobit ako ljudsko biće ne djeluje i ne misli iz unutra. Posljedično tome, pošto ni jedna osoba nikad ne može preuzeti odgovornost za dušu druge osobe već ljudsko biće to mora prihvatiti za sebe, on je također obavezan pomno ispitati/istražiti da li se njegove misli ili akcije podudaraju sa Božjom voljom, i prema tome on mora (po)zna(va)ti Božju volju, koja mu je dodijeljena/otkrivena kroz Božju Riječ. I stoga Božja Riječ mora biti temelj a ne ljudska tumačenja i dodaci; i sa ciljem da to ispita, sa ciljem da jednog dana bude odgovoran, nužna je duboka veza sa Bogom, Koji će onda mentalno otkriti Svoju volju osobi koja ima žudnju za istinom.
AMEN
TranslatorEvery human being is personally responsible for his soul, and thus he has to justify himself for every bad deed as well as for every omission of a good deed. He can neither blame other people for his guilt nor can he have it compensated by others, but he has to make
Amends himself on earth or in the beyond. And likewise, he alone is able to raise his state of maturity, it cannot be given to him as a gift, but he has to make an effort to live his life in accordance with God’s will. Thus he has to accept the care for his soul’s salvation himself, because no other human being can relieve him of this. Subsequently, he also has to inform himself of God’s will and accept His Word, which reveals the divine will to him. And then he has to let God’s Word take effect on him. He therefore should not blindly believe what people want to present to him but first has to compare it with God’s Word, and only if it completely corresponds to the latter may he submit himself to its influence.
If the human being is responsible for himself he is also responsible for his own mental concepts. Consequently he is duty-bound to scrutinise whatever is offered to him, because this is precisely what he is answerable for. He cannot excuse himself with having been offered errors and thus he became unable to find the truth, but he has to make his own effort to discover the truth, which will also be offered to him if he asks for it. Since God will hold him to account one day He will first give him every opportunity to be able to recognise and live up to what is right. However, when the human being relies on what is given to him by other people he is bypassing all personal responsibility, he tries to unload it on the other person who has educated him. Yet God has given him intellect and the gift of thought, and by using this gift he can chose for himself what is right and wanted by God and act accordingly, consequently he can also be held to account....
Therefore, academically imparted spiritual knowledge, thus including teachings accepted by the person in the form of formal education, cannot suffice to gain complete knowledge of God’s will as long as it does not, by way of his own reflection, awaken and increase a sense of responsibility in the human being.... And on serious reflection the human being will realise which teachings were given by God to people and which teachings have been added to them by people. Thus, in order to be answerable in the future, the human being first has to deal with the received knowledge and in doing so, providing he has a desire for truth, he will also be able to distinguish between truth and error. Whereas a dogmatic teaching will stifle his sense of responsibility in him, indeed it will have to stifle it, because the faith in it or the fulfilment of what is demanded will become a purely mechanical matter and the person no longer feels responsible for what he believes to do conscientiously. Because whatever he does is done by him with a certain amount of obligation since it is demanded of him.... It is not an act of free will, albeit he is also able to refuse or ignore the demand, but the inner urge is missing which should be the reason for every action, for everything demanded by God from people.
The human being should be conscious of the fact that God only values what he does for love, that his thinking and actions should therefore only be governed by love and that every lack of love is a sin against God, Who is love Himself, and that the human being has to be answerable for this. Thus, whatever he is ordered to do, whatever he is duty-bound to do, negates free thought and action. And the human being effectively only gives account to the world, i.e. to those who have imposed a duty on him. For this reason the soul cannot benefit greatly if the human being does not act and think from within. Consequently, since no person can ever assume responsibility for another person’s soul but the human being has to accept this for himself, he is also obliged to scrutinise whether his thoughts and actions coincide with God’s will, and therefore he has to know God’s will, which is imparted to him through His Word. And thus God’s Word has to be the foundation and not human interpretations and additions; and in order to examine this, in order to be accountable one day, a deeply felt relationship with God is necessary, Who will then mentally reveal His will to the person who has the desire for truth....
