Corrections
By Revision
Apostle Philip: Son of man, the simple thing is to remove all that are not correct from this book: and leave, keep, those that are correct. Son of man, this is because, if we leave this book as it is now, to continue with all the errors, lies and fabrications in it, there shall be confusions always.
The Head: That is true.
1. A slave can hope only to become free.
A slave cannot expect to inherit the estate of the master.
Yet a Son is not
only a Son,
but also a Co-owner of His Father’s estate.
A king begets a king.
A prophet begets a prophet.
A priest begets a priest.
And a Saint begets a Saint.
2. An Israelite makes an Israelite,
and such a person is called an Israelite.
But a new member does not make a new member.
Those Who came
from the Truth
are as They were initially.
And They beget
other Men of Truth.
The latter need only to be born (in It).
Sons Of God
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, in olden days, there were proselytes and slaves, and all the people who
work for God were called servants of God. But now, all the people who work for
God are called the sons of God. There is no more proselytes.
Apostle Philip: What
do the present and modern generation call proselyte?
The Head: They
are called believers, converts, proselytes, born again or new comers.
Apostle Philip: Call
them, new members. Remove all the commentaries and explanations by the bible
authors.
3.
There are those who inherit the perishable.
They belong to the
perishable,
and thus they inherit the perishable.
Those Who
inherit the Imperishable are imperishable.
They become owners of both the Imperishable and the perishable.
People of the
perishable inherit (really) nothing.
Because what can a perishable man inherit?
4. A pagan does not die because has not (really) lived.
So, there is no point in speaking about a pagan’s death.
But those who
have accepted the Truth begin to live,
and there is a danger of dying for them because they live.
About Pagans
Apostle Philip: Any
person, who is a pagan, is already dead in spirit, which is worse than physical
death. He is a lost soul.
The Head: Lost
to the Kingdom of light.
Apostle Philip: Son of man, there is no gain, no need, calling
him a living person.
Son of man, is the soul of the dead pagan not important o
God?
The Head: It is
important to God.
Apostle Philip: Does
it serve any benefit to God by being a lost soul?
The Head: No.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, let the bible authors not say that there is no point in speaking about
the death of a pagan, because his death is a shameful death, because the Angels
regret his death and because his life is a lost one.
Whoever that shall speak about a pagan’s life, should
inquire in spirit, to know if the pagan will come again to the world,
reincarnate. This is because the Angels bring many pagans out of hell fire, for
them to reincarnate again.
Two Types Of Death
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, going astray from God is not only spiritual death.
What is it called?
The Head: It is
called separation from God, or second death.
Apostle Philip: Yourself
answered very well, very accurately. It is second death, and it is very
terrible. All these things are what humanity should be careful about. It is not
the death of the flesh.
Son of man, some people die in the flesh, but are alive
in spirit. And there are people, who are dead both spiritually and physically.
Son of man, the second death refers to those people, who die and go to hell
fire. But the person, those people who die physically and go to heaven, they
live forever.
5. Since the day of Christ’s incarnation,
the prosperity came,
the cities revived,
the death moved away.
Gospel Of Truth And Salvation
Apostle Philip: Which
death?
The Head: It is
spiritual blindness and ignorance; not knowing the spiritual realities of life.
Jesus Christ came to make the truth radiant.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, yourself answered very well. Son of man, death moved away. People who
do not understand this word would think it means physical death. If they think
that it is physical death, their heart will ask them, “Are the Apostles and
Disciples still alive?”
And Jesus Christ died physical death. But, they did not
know that the word means spiritual death, which is spiritual blindness,
ignorance and laziness. And also, second death is included.
The Head: Jesus Christ brought salvation.
Apostle Philip: That was how death moved away.
6. When we were Israelites,
each of us had only a mother.
But since we
became Christians
we have both the Father and mother.
All That Glitters Is Not Gold
Apostle Philip: Have
you seen why I said you should remove the word, Hebrew?
Does the word, Hebrew, show that people are doing the
will of God?
The Head: It
does not show.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, Hebrew is Hebrew. Humanity should not think that all the people in
Israel have reached heaven – they have not repented; they are not righteous and
are not Saints. Humanity should think that such people know God.
Earthly And Heavenly Fathers
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, what does it mean?
The Head: It
shows that here on earth, people have parents, fathers and mothers. But in
heaven, all the people have one Father only, who is God Almighty, Yahweh, the
Lord of the Hosts.
Apostle Philip: Truly,
truly and truly, your explanation is perfect. The word, Hebrew, refers to the
time when Jesus Christ had not yet come to the world, when Jesus Christ had not
yet brought salvation. The only thing we know is keeping the laws.
But where is the Holy Spirit that will enable us to keep
the law?
The Head: There
was none.
Apostle Philip: But
as Jesus Christ came In, he gave us the Holy Spirit and made all things
perfect. Include this two explanations.

7. Those who sow in winter reap in summer.
The winter is
the earthly,
but the summer is another eon.
Let us sow on
the Earth in winter
so that we may reap the harvest in summer!
Therefore, we
should not pray to God for the winter,
because the winter is followed by the summer.
But the one who
tries to reap in winter
will not really reap but only pluck out the
sprouts.
When To Cultivate
Apostle Philip: Is it
speaking about the physical, since humanity are organizing various positions,
conditions, for themselves?
Son of man, the saying, those who cultivate in the wet
season have foods to eat in the dry seasons. It is not for everybody. Many
people who cultivate in the wet season eat all that they harvest in the wet
season. And they shall suffer hunger during the dry season.
Is it true?
The Head: It is
true.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, during the dry season, you can still see people who are cultivating
plants.
So, how come they are eating what they have harvested?
Humanity should cultivate during the wet season, and
should not do so during the dry season, for the land to rest. It is necessary
to explain this to humanity, because this conduct is good, it is advisable. Son
of man, they have to move forward – by complying with what God said.
Son of man, tell the children of God to sop farming
during the dry season. God did not create the dry season for farming. And
whatever people cultivate in the dry seasons shall not be productive. If at all
it is productive, it shall not be very fertile, because the dry season is the
time when the land and plants do rest. That is the time they gather nutrients
for them to work during the wet season.
But if people cultivate during the dry season, from rainy
season to rainy season, and from dry season to dry season, when shall the land
rest?
As people cultivate the land steadily, always, every
time, the land will start to yield little and little. This is because the land
does not have enough strength and nutrients. It is a law of God that people
should not cultivate during the dry season. The Israelites keep there is none
law.
As the children of God obey this law, God will make what
they cultivate in the wet season to yield in abundance, which shall be
sufficient during both wet and dry seasons. And if the children of God do not
keep this law, God and His Angels will keep quiet unto humanity – leave
humanity to suffer hunger due to infertility of the land. If they see, they
eat; and if they do not see, they shall not eat.
8. The one who does not follow this — will not reap the harvest. Moreover, such one will not only be without the harvest, but will have no strength in the Sabbath.
The Lord’s Day
Apostle Philip: The Sabbath, the Seventhday, is
the Lord’s Day. It is a day for rest and fro prayers and worship by the
children of God, and for humanity.
Son of man, it is only in his
age, in this present and modern generation, that people do such.
Truly, truly and truly, God told
the Israelites to keep the Sabbath day holy. All the world have to keep it,
because it was God who established the Sabbath day. Just as he established the
sky, the light, the air, the sun and the moon.
Son of man, all the various
saints you read about in the holy book, who lived righteous life, without keep
the laws of God, many of them were Angels and saints of God who came down to
live in this world, to correct the world, to keep the laws of God, so that all
humanity shall do what?
The Head: For humanity to emulate them and
join in keeping the laws of God.
If people saying the Sabbath is
for Israel, the mark of salvation important thing is that it was God who
established it.
The Head: And gave the laws.
Apostle Philip: Son of man, all the world have
to keep the laws, and keep the Sabbath day holy. As the children of God are all
over the world, they have to keep the laws and Sabbath in all their dwellings,
wherever they are.
The Head: Thanks be to God.
Apostle Philip: They have to keep the laws of
God. But truly, truly and truly, son of man, do not expect everybody in the
world to keep the laws and Sabbath.
Son of man, that was why the
Israelites did not want the east and west to establish the Covenant System Of
Worship.
Do you know this fact?
The Head: It is true, because the
Israelites are still doing the covenant the way Yahweh's Encyclopedia like.
They have not started to keep the laws of God the way God wants.
Apostle Philip: Let me ask you people one
question.
Is the Sabbath meant for the
Israelites only?
The Head: It is for the children of God, and
it is meant for the whole world and u. but many of the fallen Angels in the world, will refuse to
keep the laws of God and their descendants.
Apostle Philip: Son of man, tie the Israelites think
that they are the only children of God, chosen by God, apart from the other
nations. That was why they took the covenant of God and hide it in their midst.
Even as the sun, the moon, the
sky, the air, the sunlight and the earth are not meant for the Israelites
alone.
The Head: Yes, they keep it for themselves
only.
Apostle Philip: It was when Jesus Christ came,
that He said the Gospel of Truth and Salvation shall be spread to all the ends
of the earth. And Christianity became established, teaching in the temple of
God.
Now, the difference is clear.
Is it true or false?
The Head: It is true.
Apostle Philip: This shows that the covenant
laws are not meant for the Israelites alone.
It is true or false?
The Head: It is true.
Children Of God In Various Nations
Apostle Philip: There are children of God in the
various nations of the world. The reason why God put the children of God in the
midst of the various nations, is for the children of God to help make the
Gospel of Truth and Salvation spread all over the world.
Jesus Christ In His First And Second Comings
Apostle Philip: But as the Israelites hid the
covenant, yourselves have seen that the gospel did not spread for many years,
until the FirstSon of God, Jesus Christ, came the first time and made it to
spread as the Gospel of Truth and Salvation, all over the world. And He is now
in the world, Jesus Christ in His second coming, reincarnated as the man who
saw God face to face, working with the Hosts of Angels and Saints of Heaven to
make the word and covenant of God to spread as this holy book, Yahweh’s Book Of Life. Even so it shall
be, everything, every law given by God, let humanity make it known to all the
ends of the earth, for the children of God to hear it. And if many or any of
them say that they have not heard it, make the message to get to their ears,
from time to time.
Son of man, number 8 is correct.
9.
Christ came to “ransom” some: to liberate, to save. He
“ransomed” strangers making them His own.
Afterwards, He set apart His own – the Apostles.
He laid down Himself (on
the Path of sacrificial service) when He Himself willed it — not only when He
revealed Himself to people, but from the very day of the Creation of the World,
He laid down Himself.
Number 9 is correct.
10. Light and darkness, life and death, right and left — are brothers of one another; they are inseparable (in earthly people). Because of this, among them — the good are not good, the bad are not bad, and their life is not life, and their death is not death.
So, one should begin with separating all these from oneself.
Those who have detached themselves from the earthly become whole, eternal.
Already In This Yahweh’s Book Of
Life
Apostle Philip: I
shall not go on to explain this, because all the teachings of the Hosts of
Angels and Saints of Heaven and yourself, as Jesus Christ in His second coming
and as the man who saw God face to face, in this DivineBase Ministry, have
explained this statement.
In The Future
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, this is because the time is coming when your ministers shall stand to
explain words of deep meanings, mysteries. They shall organize (hazie) it and
give corrections.
According To Spiritual Levels
Apostle Philip: Also,
there shall be difference between the teaching given to the old ministers of
God and the teachings given to the new ministers of God. This is because their
spiritual levels are different, and their spiritual vibrations are not the
same. Even so it is with the people in heaven. Their teachings are different.
The Head: That
is how the teachings have already being organized. The problem is that the
ministers of God are not coming and the children of God are not attending. The
teachings, organized in sequence, are already available and waiting.
Warning Against Poor Attendance
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, during the Midweek Prayer, we do not see them, both the ministers of
God and children of God. On the Sabbath Eve, we do not see them.
The Head: They
supposed to be attending. Their promotions are based on attendance and
participations. Those who are not coming are keeping themselves stand still.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, see us pulling their ears, warning them. See us warning them. The
Angels are not the people to take up canes and flog a person, because the
person has sinned, but because the person refuses to repent.
The Head: Thanks
be to God.
Warning Against Misuse Of
Opportunity
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, see as we are pulling their ears, from time to time. Grace, grace and
grace is what we give to them, from time to time. And we give them second
chance, second chance and second chance.
People do not know that many children of God do not have
second chance, which we give to the children of God. Tell them, the fallen
angels have no second chance. But see as the grace abounds for the children of
God, to the extents that they do not know. Some are lavishing the grace,
misusing or abusing the golden opportunity.
Bu we are telling them, warning them. And we shall flog
them. Not only that, their gains are what they are throwing away. The benefits
of God’s work for them in the future, is what they are playing (with). They
have thrown away the wisdom which they supposed to get. Everlasting life is
what they neglect and disregard, because they do not have spiritual knowledge.
They play (with) their everlasting life.
Tell the children of God, that we the Hosts of Angels and
Saints of Heaven, are warning them. Tell them, to keep doing the right thing,
by abiding in the paths of righteousness. Let them stand and remain steadfast.
Son of man, this is because many of them
shall still come
back to us in heaven.
Some shall return with complains.
Some shall return with sufferings and pains.
Some shall return with burdens and grieves
or sorrows and
regrets.
Son of man, tell them, as they are alive, even so shall
be their attendance, on regular basis. Let them not say the more you look, the
less you see. They should not say that nothing is being done here, because
there are numerous teachings, corrections, messages and warnings from God,
delivered to this DivineBase Ministry, for humanity. They have no excuses to
give.
11. The importance attached to earthly things is a great delusion, for they divert our thoughts from the One Who is eternal to that which is transient. And in this case, the one who hears about God does not perceive (behind this word) the Eternal, but thinks about the transient. In the same way, behind the words the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit, the Life, the Light, the Resurrection, and the Church — people do not perceive the Eternal, but think about the transient, unless they have already recognized the Eternal (through personal spiritual experience). These words are only misleading to earthly people.
12. One name is not uttered among the earthly — the name which the Father grants to a Son. It is above all. This name is the Father. The Son would not have gotten this name if He had not become the Father.
Those who bear this name know this, but They do not speak about this. But those who do not bear this name do not know Them.
Names in this world are invented because it is not possible to cognize the Truth without them.
The Truth is one, but It is
presented as Many. This is for our sake: to lead us to the cognition of the One
through love for Many.
13. The earthly rulers wanted to deceive people, since they understood that people have the same origin with the really worthy. They took good names and gave these names to bad things in order to deceive people and bind them to the bad in this way. And now these earthly rulers suggest to people that they keep away from the “bad” and cling to the “good”. These earthly rulers strive to make formerly free men slaves forever.
14. There are powers which give (power) to people, not wishing to save them. They do this (in order to subjugate them).
People, wishing to be saved, made sacrifices. But a reasonable one (understands clearly that) sacrifices are not necessary and animals should not be offered to deities. In fact, those who offered animals as a sacrifice were themselves like animals (by the level of their development)…
When a sacrifice was made (animals were offered to deities). Though animals were offered alive, they died.
But the one who offers
oneself dead to God — ( verily) will live.
15. Before Christ came, there was no bread of Heaven. It was like in paradise at the time of Adam: there were many trees — food for animals, but no wheat — food for man. Man used to feed like animals.
But when a Christ — Perfect Man — comes, He brings the bread from Heaven so that people may eat human food.
16. The earthly rulers thought that what they did they did by their own power and will. But in reality, the Holy Spirit in secret accomplished all that through them — accomplished as He considered appropriate.
Also, they sow everywhere the true knowledge, which existed since the beginning. And many people see it while it is being sown, but only a few of them recall about it by the time of the harvest.
17. Some said that Mary conceived by the Holy Spirit. They do not understand what they say. When did a woman ever conceive by a woman?
Mary at the same time is the immaculacy, which was not defiled by violence.
She is a great temptation to Israelites, both to those who preach and to those who listen to their preaching.
Her immaculacy, which was not defiled by violence, is pure. But the mighty of this world defiled themselves (through their fantasies).
And the Lord (Jesus Christ)
would not have said, “My Father Who is in Heaven,” if He had not had another
father. He would have said simply: “My Father”.
The Head: Virgin
Mary gave birth to Jesus Christ by virgin birth.
What Holy Spirit Is
Apostle Philip: Son of
man, is this Holy Spirit a female?
The Head: No.
It is God Almighty that is also the Holy Spirit. Just as a man can be a father,
a teacher and a farmer. A man does not become a female because he is a teacher,
just as a woman does not become a man simply because she is a farmer.
Virgin Birth
Apostle Philip: By
which violence?
The Head: What
they supposed to write here is simply that Virgin Mary gave birth by virgin
birth. This is clear, simple and direct. She gave birth without sexual
activity.
The Unbelievers And Hypocrites
Apostle Philip: She
was not a temptation.
The Head: Instead,
it is confusing to those people.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, what they are explaining here are the Israelites, who do not believe in
Christianity, who do not believe that Jesus Christ is the FirstSon of God.
Son of man, all these people, who lay false allegations,
that Jesus Christ had no father, that themselves knew that Joseph is not the
biological father of Jesus Christ. Son of man, this is because some people
later found out that Mary was already pregnant before Joseph paid her bride
price. Many Israelites were falsely accusing Jesus Christ of many allegations,
even the followers of Jesus Christ. Therefore, any allegation can go. Son of
man, this is because everybody says whatever that pleases him. Everybody is
doing anyhow he likes.
The Head: That
is confusion.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, the Roman Catholic Church members who are carrying Mary on their head,
who are the major people teaching, promoting, and enforcing the worship of
marry and images (ndị bu Mary na isi), they use it to commit various
impunities – evils and abominations against God. It is these Catholic Church
members that are being spoken of here.
18. The Lord said to the disciples, “Enter the House of the Father. But do not take anything in the House of the Father, nor carry anything out.”
Enter
the House of the Father.
But
make sure that you abide by the rites of holiness
Neither
add nor subtract from the word of God.
Restrictions
Apostle Philip: Son of
man, what is the explanation?
The Head: The Apostles, Disciples and
Saints should not remove what is meant for the holy place to the outside. A
holy place is not for personal services. It is not a place where people go to
use what should be used in the holy place only.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, this is important. But the teaching is not correct.
Misinterpretations
Apostle Philip: How
could Jesus Christ tell the Apostles, Disciples and Saints to go into the
temple of God and not touch anything or go out with anything?
Son of man, if you are spoken to thus, will you be able
to understand it all?
The Head: The understanding shall not be
complete. It shall make the Apostles, Disciples and Saints not to do certain
things which they should do, in their effort to avoid certain things.
Apostle Philip: Yourself
answered very well.
Son of man, your child, whom you are sending on errand,
and when he reaches the place, you tell him not to touch anything, or take
anything outside, do you not know that what you are telling the person is, when
he gets to the place, to keep on standing still?
The Head: That is true.
Apostle Philip: This
is because he does not know if there is anything he will touch and it becomes a
sin or damaged. Truly, truly and truly, this teaching is not perfect, not
complete. It shall be made to become perfect.
Rites Of Holiness
Apostle Philip: The
teaching shall explain about the rites of holiness, which should be observed
for God. What is holy shall be made to be holy. Also, anything upon which the
name of God is called, anything dedicated to God, has become a holy thing.
What God Told Holy Moses
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, what did God tell Holy Moses about the holy things?
Which shall be used inside the temple of God?
The Head: Holy things shall be used within
the temple only, and it shall not be used outside the temple.
Apostle Philip: Yourself
answered very well. God told Holy Moses, anything upon which the anointing oil
is, is holy to the Lord.
While Inside The Holy Places
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, before the children of God shall enter a holy place, they have to first
prepare. They have to be holy before entering the holy place. And when they
enter a holy place, they should know that they have entered a holy place. Son
of man, they shall not be behaving inside the holy place the way they are
behaving in other places.
They shall not be speaking anyhow they like.
They shall not be rebuking, because the place is holy.
They shall not be using the vessels, altar clothes or other
things belonging to God, anywhere they want.
Son of man, they shall not wrap the temple clothes on
themselves.
Is it true or false?
The Head: It is true.
Apostle Philip: They
shall not remove a cloth from its place to another place.
Misrepresentation
Apostle Philip: But
see how the bible authors said it in a proverb. They did not even state that
they were stating a proverb – people take such statement literally as the words
are – as if the words are the words of God Almighty.
The Head: The world, humanity, do not
understand that what supposed to be written here is that the temple of God has
various rites of holiness.
Compulsory Rites Of Holiness
The Head: Every place or corner has its
own rites of holiness. The children of God and ministers of God have to make
all the rites of holiness perfect, observe all.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, and all the people working in a holy place shall be told that
themselves have to keep the rites of holiness.
Is it true or false?
The Head: It is true.
Even Before Creation
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, tell the ministers of God that the laws were given not because the
ministers of God were seen. The rites of holiness have being there before the
creation of the world. Any person who is not holy does not come near God.
Anything that is not clean does not enter his holy place.
By Permission And Due Process
The Head: If there is anything necessary
for them to use, they should ask for it, and wait to be given. People shall not
go into the holy place to take anything they want.
Division Of Labour
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, there are ministers of God who serve in the holy places always,
including male and female ministers of God. There are works for the male
ministers of God to do, and there are works for the male ministers of God to
do. For example, there are places where the male ministers of God enter, which
the female ministers of God must not enter.
The women are in-charge of foods and saraka, and various
gifts given to God.
Ensure Holiness
Apostle Philip: If
the gifts shall be shared to the ministers of God, make sure it is kept as
holy. It shall be holy.
Everything people bring into the holy place shall be
holy. And while it is being used, it shall also be holy. Even so it is,
concerning the place where something shall be taken outside. It means that
every gift presented before God, it is not all the people, not everybody, that
shall eat it. As the gift has being presented before God, it has become holy.
It is only the children of God that shall eat or use the holy things of God.
Holy things shall not be taken home for sharing among the
neighbours, friends or relations. It shall not be shared among the people who
are not in God, who are not the covenant-keeping people of God. Pagans and
gentiles shall not touch it. Any person who is not in the covenant, a cultic
man or member of secret society shall not touch, eat or use the holy things of
God. Even if they ask for it, do not give to them. This is because the holy
things of God are holy. It has become God’s property. Only the people of God
shall use it.
The Head: Thanks be to God.
19. Jesus is a human name. Christ is a title. For this reason the name Jesus is not found in other languages; He was just named Jesus.
The Lord and Saviour,
Jesus Christ.
His original name is Yahoshua.
His name is also Jesus Christ.
A name from heaven.
Idolatry
Apostle Philip: The
pagans worship various gods. Their gods answer them
The Head: That is true.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, various idols have their respective names, and when each one is called
upon, it answers.
The Correct Names Of God And
Jesus
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, different tribes have their respective names for God.
What is His name?
The Head: It is Yahweh.
Apostle Philip: Yahweh,
but people call Him, Jehovah, Chineke, Chukwu Okike, Chukwu, etc. They also
call Him, Father in heaven, and He answers them.
The Head: Yes.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, is there any name they called God, which He did not answer?
The Head: There is none (ọ dịgh).
Apostle Philip: Even
so humanity shall change the forged name, Jehovah, to God’s true and original
name, Yahweh. They shall not, and must not, change this holy name, which is His
original name.
About The Name, Jesus Christ
Apostle Philip: Let
us go to Christ, which they said is just a title.
Do they know the meaning of Christ?
The Head: Christ means the anointed one,
the Messiah.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, Christ is not a title. Christ is by merit and personality.
The Head: Christ is name of the only one
Lord and Saviour, in heaven and on earth.
Ban Of Indiscriminate Use Of The
Name, Jesus
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, is there any person, expect Jesus Christ, who answers Christ. Even so
it is that no other person shall answers Jesus.
The Head: Yes, and all the people
answering Jesus should remove it from their names. Including all those people
who answer: Baby Jesus, Ada Jesus, Nwa Jesus, Enyi Jesus, Jesus of Nando, Obere
Jesus, Onye Eze Jesus, etc. This is because they cannot bear the name – they
cannot carry the responsibilities of the name.
Apostle Philip: Truly,
truly and truly, they do not merit it, and God did not create them to answer
the name, Jesus. Therefore, the name is by merit and personality.
Meaning Of Personality
Apostle Philip: What
is personality?
The Head: It is a person in his
perfection. A person and his physique, behaviour, appearance, dressing etc.
Not Fit
Apostle Philip: Is a
human being perfect to answer Christ?
The Head: No.
Apostle Philip: Is a person
perfect to answer Yahoshua?
The Head: No.
Correction
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, therefore, the name, Jesus Christ, or Yahoshua is not a human name and
it is not a title for a human being. This forged statement shall be removed,
this writing of their personal opinion shall be removed, because it is causing
confusions.
The True Name Of Jesus Christ
The Head: So, what should be there is that
the name of Jesus Christ, His original name is Yahoshua. And this name is full
of the Holy Spirit. It is powerful, effective and steadfast.
Apostle Philip: Tell
humanity, the name by which the Kingdom of Heaven knows Jesus Christ, before He
came to the world is Yahoshua, and He is still answering the same name. Son of
man, the FirstSon of God prayed, “Let thy will be done on earth as it is in
heaven.” And he answers the name, because it is not impossible for God to
change the name.
The Head: Yes.
Apostle Philip: God
is able to give Him another name.
Himself supposed to be answering Emmanuel?
The Head: Yes.
Apostle Philip: Which
means “God is with us.” But Himself is also answering the name by which He is
known.
The Head: Yes.
Unauthorized Changes
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, He came to the world and answered Yahoshua, but the bible authors
changed the name. Son of man, but Jesus Christ said, “Let God’s will be done
here on earth as it is in heaven.” But the world, humanity, changed the name,
and also changed many things. But in heaven, son of man, nothing was changed.
Son of man, as humanity changed the name, the Holy Spirit
provided another master plan. They wanted to change the name, Yahoshua, to
Jesus, and Yahweh to Jehovah.
Just By Grace
Apostle Philip: For
many years, the change was made, and people have being calling the FirstSon of
God, Jesus. But He was answering them, based on their ignorance, because of
their ignorance.
Apostle Philip: For
many years, thousands of years, people were calling God, Jehovah, and God was
still answering them?
The Head: Yes.
Apostle Philip: Until
now that humanity have known the truth.
The Head: Yes.
Use Of The Original Name Is
Compulsory
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, the simple thing people have to do, now we are making the truth radiant
– known, steadfast and spreading – we do not want any confusion in it. The
reason why we are saying this out is truly, not to confuse humanity. It is to
make them know and be ready.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, as humanity have known that the name of God is Yahweh, and not Jehovah,
humanity have to stop calling God, Jehovah; and start calling Him His original
name, Yahweh.
Self-Exposition
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, the bible authors are testifying by themselves that they changed the
name Yahoshua, to Jesus Christ; and also changed Yahweh to Jehovah. That is why
they wrote here that Jesus Christ is just a human name.
Call Him Yahoshua
Apostle Philip: What
ourselves are telling the bible authors is that they shall not spoil this name
or strike it down cannot. It is true that they have known the name of Jesus
Christ. Let humanity call Him, Yahoshua.
Worldwide Corrections
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, what do you understand from my words?
The Head: The meaning of Yahoshua has to
be written, and humanity shall be told that the original name of Jesus Christ
is Yahoshua. People should call Him Yahoshua, and also call Him, Jesus Christ.
This is because the two names are true and effective.
Humanity should be told how the bible authors planned to
change the name, Yahoshua, to Jesus Christ. They wanted to give Him a wrong
name, to give Him a pagan name. But the Holy Spirit came in their midst and
pronounced, Jesus Christ. The bible authors did not know that it was the Holy
Spirit that pronounced the name. They thought that it was themselves that gave
that name.
That is why, since the time people stopped calling Him,
Yahoshua, and started calling Him, Jesus Christ, the name Jesus Christ has
being working. The two names are true, effective and steadfast, in heaven and
on earth. Even so till now and forever.
Worldwide Ban
Apostle Philip: Yes,
and warn humanity.
The Head: Let them stop changing the names
of God and Jesus Christ. Let humanity call them their original names,
respectively.
Apostle Philip: And
warn humanity, as ourselves are making them to know the original names of God
and Jesus Christ, they should not allow the names to be lost. We say this
because some people will say, “The name is no longer effective, and let it be
removed.”
The Head: That is true.
Apostle Philip: But
humanity forget that when they were misbehaving, fooling about, when they did
not value the name, God still sent them the Holy Spirit when they prayed. Now
that they have known the original names, the Holy Spirit is still answering
their prayers.
When people mock or condemn the names, they are also
mocking and condemning all the works which the Holy Spirit uses the names to
do.
The Head: That is true.
Apostle Philip: Warn
humanity.
20. Christ has everything in Himself: both human and angelic, and even more mysterious, and the Father.
Jesus Christ is God Almighty.
He is both human and divine.
He is the Lord Almighty,
because it was God Almighty
that came to the world
in the person of Jesus Christ.
Apostle Philip: Why
did they put that word, mysterious?
The Head: It shows that the name of Jesus
Christ is mysterious, and that they did not know all the things about it. The
word, Angelic, which they wrote is good. But, they supposed to add the word,
divine.
That the name of Jesus Christ is mysterious, it is like
“ama ama amasi amasi,” unsearchable, because there many things about knowledge,
which humanity do not know.
Why Angels And Saints Listen To
Jesus Christ
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, what do they want to explain?
Son of man, as myself gave the teachings, many Angels do
come down to the earth and hear many teachings of Jesus Christ. Yourselves know
the prophets and the Saints. Some of them have never heard such teachings. Some
of them have not understood the teachings. Son of man, Jesus Christ is the way,
the truth and the life. They have not understood the meaning. That is why they
were coming down from heaven to hear Jesus Christ teach.
Humanity Still Have Many Things
To Learn
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, yourselves see Angels?
The Head: Yes.
Apostle Philip: How
perfect they are. But truly, truly and truly, they do not know all the things
about God.
The Head: That is true.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, that is why on many occasions, they listen to the FirstSon of God,
Jesus Christ, and do what He says.
How much more humanity, who are less in spiritual level
and vibration?
Humanity supposed to be doing the same, since the Angels
who are holy and perfect are still learning more about God.
How much more humanity?
The Head: Who have not yet started.
Apostle Philip: Who
are still babies in the arms.
The Head: Yes. The children of God should
come to DivineBase Ministry and learn the Master, and also learn from the Hosts
of Angels and Saints of Heaven.
Missed Opportunities
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, humanity do not care. Son of man, humanity are missing various
opportunities, which God sends to them. If you watch, you will see that
humanity have missed so many opportunities for them to progress, to become
radiant, for their radiance, and for them to grow in spirit and become perfect.
But all the opportunities are to no avail.
Is it true or false?
The Head: It is true.
Apostle Philip: Are
things getting better or worse?
The Head: Things are getting worse.
Set Times
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, humanity have to learn knowledge, when they should learn knowledge.
This is because all things have time.
Is it true or false?
The Head: It is true.
Apostle Philip: There
is time to laugh.
There is time to cry.
There is time to teach.
There is time to stop teaching.
Is it true or false?
The Head: It is true.
Now Is The Time!
Apostle Philip: Now
is their time, truly, truly and truly. But their time remains a little, and
humanity will enter another time, a new era.
Now that yourself, as Jesus Christ in His second coming,
is in the world, teaching and guiding, ordering in sequence various things
about God, about the Holy Spirit.
Son of man, do humanity think that you will continue to
do so forever?
Do their conscience comprehend it (ọ na achịkọtawu
ya)?
Does their mind tell them that this opportunity will last
from everlasting to everlasting?
E e e hh!
They do not know that all things God have time, have set
time.
The Head: When each starts and when it
ends.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, this current time for humanity to learn directly from you is coming
time the end.
The Head: Yes. That is why I have worked
diligently with the Hosts of Angels and Saints of Heaven, to recover and
restore the original Holy Book of God, this Yahweh’s Book Of Life, so that now and henceforth, the children of
God shall learn the truth about God and life, either directly from me or by
reading and studying this Holy Book.
Apostle Philip: Ourselves
have set time when we shall be coming to the world, and we have time when our
teachings shall end. If the people to receive teachings are not present, there
is nothing they shall learn. They shall still remain empty-handed, without
gaining any benefits. But if they were close, they shall learn many things and
prepare, and be trained.
Finding The Right Word
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, what is another name they should use for that word, mysterious?
Some people say that God is unsearchable, which in Igbo
language means “ama ama amasi amasi.”
Son of man, the word, mysterious, has to be removed. They
do not know the right word to use. Also, we warn all the people, who write Yahweh’s Book Of Life. They should know
the right word to use. They should not use any word or spelling to compare and
contrast. The word, mysterious, has to be removed.
Apostle Philip: Also,
people say God is unsearchable.
Who said God is unsearchable?
The Head: People say God is unsearchable.
But the explanation is not unsearchable, because the explanation does not
explain unsearchable. It is saying a different thing.
Very Poor In Knowledge
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, there are many things which humanity supposed to have known for a very
long time. But because of their low spiritual level, they do not know. The
Angels and Saints teach them, but they see the teachings as mysterious.
Apostle Philip: Things
awesome.
The Head: Sometimes, they disregard the teachings and
would not value it.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, but it is what they supposed to have known for a very long time.
Is it true or false?
The Head: It is true.
Apostle Philip: For
example, the name of God, which they supposed to know right from their birth.
Now, that they are knowing it, some are trembling. They feel that it is
mysterious. But it is what they supposed to have known since.
Find The Right Word
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, that word, mysteries, remove it. Use another word.
21. They who say that the Lord died first and then rose up are in error, for He rose up first and then died (by the body).
Meanings Of Death
Apostle Philip: Leave
this as it is. He said the death is the death of the flesh. Jesus Christ died
in the flesh and not in spirit. That is why He said, “I am the resurrection and
the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never
die. Do you believe this?”
Son of man, as Jesus Christ did not die in spirit, even
so people do not die in spirit. To die in spirit is to separate oneself from
God, such that the person can no longer return to God. Such a person enters
hell fire and suffers various afflictions.
Jesus Christ died in the flesh, so that His blood shall
be used to save the believers. His blood is an everlasting sign and covenant.
Son of man, as Jesus Christ died in the flesh, He came back to life.
Is it true or false?
The Head: It is true. Which means that He
did not die in flesh permanently. It is the person who dies and does not return
to flesh that has died permanently.
Apostle Philip: Son
of man, they said that Jesus Christ did not die in spirit, because people believed
that before a person dies, he first dies in spirit.
The Head: That is true. That is why people
cry and weep when somebody dies.
Apostle Philip: That
a person died in spirit means that his spirit has gone. But Jesus Christ did
not die in spirit.
Where did His spirit go to?
The Head: His spirit finished doing work
here on earth, and returned to heaven.
Apostle Philip: And
He comes to the world from heaven, from time to time.
Son of man, have you seen that Jesus Christ did not die
in spirit. Also, He goes to heaven and comes back. So, when He goes to heaven,
people should not say that He has died. The spirit departed, left, but is not
dead.
You have to write and explain all these, one by one, so
that people shall not say that they did not understand.
A Holy Book For All
Apostle Philip: An
illiterate person shall not be able to understand this. Son of man, but the
holy book is made, writhen, in such a way that everybody, whether learned or
not, shall be able to understand it. This is because the Holy Spirit is not a
matter of who is learned or not. It is for those who walk in spirit, who have
gone very far in spirit.
Is it true or false?
The Head: It is true.
Apostle Philip: That
was why when the Apostle Peter was teaching about the holy book, about
mysteries, people were saying, “I thought this man was not learned. But see,
hear, the words coming out of his mouth.”
Apostle Philip: What
does it show?
The Head: The person who wrote this has
not yet grown in spirit. He is like a child, who is still learning how to
crawl. He strives to say something he thinks is true, but has not yet said what
he is saying in the right way. He mixed up, because the spirit is separate from
the flesh. He does not rise in the flesh.
22.
One never hides a thing of great value in a
large vessel, but very often countless treasures are placed into a vessel worth
an assarion. It is the same with the soul. Being a precious thing, it is
placed in a contemptible body.
Apostle Philip: Do you know the correction. We do not want long grammar or high
vocabularies. We do not want long stories or unnecessary stories. Remove such
stories. Let the children of God read only what Jesus Christ said.
The Head: Let
the will of God be done. This shows that the bible authors, antichrist and beast
first read many books written by the Apostles, Disciples and Saints, before the
bible authors published their forged bible.
The Head: That
is true.
Apostle Philip: And they removed the portions they want to remove, and added what they
wanted to add, before they published the bible.
23. There are
people who are afraid of rising naked. This is because they want to rise in the
flesh. Yet they do not understand that those who wear the flesh are naked (in
front of spirits and God).
But those who
undress themselves (of the flesh) in order to become naked (i.e. “naked” souls)
— they are not naked anymore.
Neither flesh
nor blood can enter the Abode of God.
So, what is
that which will not enter? It is that which is on us.
And what is
that which will enter? It is that which belongs to Jesus and to His Blood.
Therefore, He
said, “They who will not eat My Flesh and drink My Blood will not have the
(true) life in them”.
Physical And Spiritual Bodies
Apostle Philip: The flesh is about the spiritual body. As there is a
physical body, there is also spiritual body. Jesus Christ was explaining to
them that flesh and blood do not enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
Son of man, St Paul
De Evangelist was explaining about any person living in flesh.
Son of man, what does
it mean?
Son of man, he said
any person living in flesh is flesh, and any person living in spirit is spirit.
The Head: Which means that a person who is living in
flesh, the spirit dwindles and quenches
like fire. But the person, who is living in spirit, his spirit becomes radiant,
and the person becomes like the Angels.
Apostle Philip: Yourself answered very well. Living a carnal, worldly
life, that is what is flesh.
Benefits Of The Holy Communion
Apostle Philip: So many people have asked this question, when Jesus
Christ said any one who eats my flesh and drinks my blood will live.
Many people
exclaimed, and asked, “How shall we eat His flesh and drink His blood?”
But, they did not
know that the flesh is not the physical body, and the blood is not the human
blood.
Son of man, what does
it mean, to eat my flesh and to drink my blood?
The Head: It
menus that a person shall hear the word of God, live righteous live in spirit
and in truth, as God said, according to the will of God. The person has to
receive victory by the Blood of Jesus Christ, which victory is victory in all
battlefronts and separation from all evils, even so forever.
Apostle Philip: Son of man, any person that dies in Jesus Christ, will
rise in Jesus Christ. Son of man, any person that believes in Yahoshua, the
person shall live forever.
The Head: And the person who does not believe shall die
second death and go to hell fire.
Apostle Philip: Any person that hears the word of Jesus Christ and does the
same, shall receive the power of the Holy Spirit. And there are many other
explanations of it.
Apostle Philip: Son of man, even so where Jesus Christ said, “I am the
living water,” was there any time He changed and became water?
The Head: No.
Also, He said, “I am
the bread of life.”
Was there any time He
changed and became a big loaf of bread?
The Head: No.
Apostle Philip: The reason why Jesus Christ was saying so, it is only the
people who have the Holy Spirit that will understand.
Do you see all the
mysterious words of Jesus Christ, the people who have the Holy Spirit, Lord the
meanings, because the same Holy Spirit in Jesus Christ is also in them?
The Head: And the same Holy Spirit explains to them what
Jesus Christ is saying.
Apostle Philip: Son of man, that is why Jesus Christ said, “I know my
sheep and my sheep know me.”
Do you people not
understand what it means?
The Head: It shows that the Holy Spirit in Jesus Christ
is also in His people. When He speaks, they understand what He is saying.
Apostle Philip: And Jesus Christ said, “Whenever I call them, they listen. But if another person calls them,
they will not listen or follow him”. They will turn their back on the
person.
Son of man, Jesus
Christ uses proverbs and parables to speak. The Holy Spirit coming out of His
mouth uses parables. All the people, who hear His words, who have the Holy
Spirit, they understand.
That was why He said,
“It is miserable.” All the people, who do not have the Holy Spirit will say,
“Hear! This very man! I cannot follow him o o o o! I cannot attain that level.”
But all the people,
who have the Holy Spirit run, rush, to hear the words of Jesus Christ, because
according to them, “His word gives me peace of mind. It gives me Holy Spirit.”
The Head: Also, they say, “It gives me joy, and makes me
radiant and growing in spirit.”
Apostle Philip: His word gives joy.
Difference Between Believers And Unbelievers
Apostle Philip: Have you seen the people who have the Holy Spirit – how
to know them. But all the people who do not have the Holy Spirit will say,
“Have you seen what
this man is saying now?
What He is saying is
meaningless, useless and irrelevant.
This man, He speaks
just for people to say that He is very knowledge able.”
Son of man, when yourself
is teaching here, some stay where they are and say, “Loot at what this man is
saying.
He is making Himself
a king.
He makes Himself
God.”
Do you not know this?
The Head: That is true.
Apostle Philip: They say, “He
is comparing Himself to God.”
The Head: That is true.
Why Angels Ignore The Unbelievers
Apostle Philip: Why do we close our mouth?
It is because such
people are not the first, and they shall not be the last. Even so it has being
made, since a long time ago.
It is not only those
people. Also, the Pharisees, Sadducees and Scribes, many people, including the
Romans saw all things and – in all things, and said, “This person is making
Himself God or what?”
Is He comparing
Himself with God?
The True Saints Are Steadfast
Apostle Philip: But all the people, who have the Holy Spirit, are
knowledgeable. They shall not be deceived. Even when there is earthquake, they
know that yourself Jesus Christ, now in His second coming, reincarnated as the
man who saw God face to face, is true. But all the people, who do not have the
Holy Spirit, when there is earthquake – doubt, confusion, crisis or persecution
– they rum away. Some of them remain in confusion. Some shall be shouting and
saving their heads – sneaking away to avoid trouble.
24. In this world, people
mark themselves in the society by their garments.
But in the Kingdom of
Heaven, the garments of the chosen are on Those Who robed themselves in the
Flow and Fire, on Those Who purified Themselves.
25.
Usually obvious things are recognized through the obvious,
and secret things — through the secret. But in some cases, the secret is
symbolized through images of the obvious.
26.
Jesus conquered the hearts of people without revealing His
Essence. To everyone He revealed Himself as much as they could comprehend. He
did this so: to the great He appeared as great, to the small He appeared as
small, to angels — as an angel, and to people — as a man. At the same time, His Divinity was hidden from
all. Some, seeing Him, thought that they saw a person equal to them.
But when He revealed Himself to His disciples in the whole glory on the mountain — at that moment He was not small but truly Great. But before this, He made His disciples great, so that they could see His Greatness.
On that day, thanking the
Father, He said: “O He, Who united His Perfection and Light with the Holy
Spirit, unite us also with the images of angels!”
27.
Do
not neglect the Lamb, for without Him one cannot see the Gate.
And no one will be able to
come to the King remaining “naked”.
28.
The Man of Heaven has many more Sons than an earthly man.
If the sons of Adam are many, although they die, how much more are the Sons of
the Perfect Man, Those Who do not die and are begotten again and again!
29.
The Father created a Son, but a Son cannot create a son.
Because the One Who was born in that way (by the Father) cannot beget. A Son
makes brothers for Himself, not sons.
30.
This
part of the original text is damaged.
31. There are those who feed from a mouth if the word of God comes from it. If one feeds like this — one can become Perfect.
The Perfect can be conceived by a kiss and be born thus.
For this reason, we also
kiss one another to become conceived from the grace which is in each one of us.
32.
There were three who always walked with the Lord: Mary,
His mother; His sister; and Mary Magdalene, who was called His companion. So,
there were three Maries: His mother, His sister, and His companion.
33. The Father and the Son are single names.
But the Holy Spirit is a Double name. For They are everywhere: They are above, They are below, They are in the hidden space, They are in the open (space).
(At that) the Holy Spirit
is open below and hidden above.
34. Saints are served by evil
powers as well. These powers are blind because of the Holy Spirit: they think
that they serve their men, but in fact they work for the saints.
Once, a disciple asked the
Lord about something of this world. The Lord answered him: “Ask your mother;
she will give you of the things which are alien to Me”.
35.
The apostles said to their disciples: “Let all our gift s
contain salt”. By salt they called wisdom. Without it, one’s giving must not be
performed.
36.
But wisdom cannot be well-grounded without a Son…
37.
What the Father possesses belongs also to His Son. While
the Son is small, He is not entrusted with what belongs to Him. But when He
becomes adult, the Father gives Him all that is His.
Those people who go astray
from the Path were born on the Earth also according to the will of the Spirit
of God. Yet, they go astray from the Path also according to His will. Thus,
lamps are kindled and put out by the same Spirit.
38.
There is simple wisdom. But there is also wisdom
consecrated by death: this wisdom has cognized death. The wisdom which has not
cognized death is small wisdom.
40.
There
are animals devoted to man like cows, donkeys, and others. And there are those
not devoted to man, which live apart in the desert.
Man plows in the field with the help of devoted animals. Thanks to this, man provides with food both oneself and the devoted animals, but not those undevoted.
In the same way, the Perfect Man works with the help of those who are faithful and prepares everything that is necessary for their being. Thanks to this, everything is at the right place: the good and the bad, the right and the left.
But the Holy Spirit takes
care of everyone and controls everything: the faithful, the hostile, and the indifferent.
He unites them and separates them in order that they all may gain power when He
decides it is necessary.
41.
This
part of the original text is damaged.
42. First, adultery takes place; then a murderer is born from it. He was a son of a devil before; therefore, he becomes a murderer of people now and kills his brothers.
Every (sexual) intercourse
of dissimilar people is adultery.
43.
God is like a dyer. Just as good dyes, which are called
colorfast, get destroyed only with the things dyed in them; it is the same with
God. Because His dyes do not fade; they are immortal thanks to His work of the
“dyer”.
God baptizes those whom He
baptizes in the Flow.
44.
It is not possible to perceive anything of the
Imperishable unless one becomes like It.
In the world of the True Life, everything happens not in the same way as among earthly people: they perceive the sun, although they are not the sun, they perceive the sky and the earth and all other objects, not being them.
But in that world, you perceive something, and you become it. Thus you perceive the Holy Spirit, and you become Him. You perceive a Christ, and you become a Christ. You perceive the Father, you become the Father.
In that world you perceive
everything, but you do not perceive yourself. But you perceive yourself as That
One, because you become the One Whom you see.
45.
Faith begs. Love gives.
One must not receive without faith. One must not give without love.
Therefore, in order to beg we believe, and in order to give truly we love.
But the one who gives without
love does not benefit from such giving.
46.
The one who has not received the Lord yet is
still a Hebrew.
47.
The first apostles called Him thus: Jesus Nazarene
Messiah, that is Jesus Nazarene Christ. The last word is Christ; the first is Jesus;
in the middle — Nazarene.
The word Messiah has two
meanings: Christ and King. Jesus in Hebrew means Savior. Nazara is Truth.
Nazarene is the One Who came from the Truth.
48.
A pearl, even if it is cast down into the mud, is not
despised. And if one covers it with balsam, it does not become more valuable.
But it is always valuable to its owner.
49.
If you say, “I am a Jew!” — no one will move. If you say,
“I am a Roman!” — no one will be disturbed. If you say, “I am a Greek, a
barbarian, a slave, a free man!” — no one will flinch. But if you say, “I am a
Christian!” — everyone will tremble. Oh, if I could receive this rank, which is
unbearable for the earthly rulers!
50. God is an Eater of men. Men are consumed by Him.
Formerly men sacrificed
animals. But their souls were consumed not by God.
51.
Glass
vessels and clay vessels are both made by means of fi re. But glass vessels, if
broken, can be remade, for they came into being through a breath. Clay vessels,
if broken, are thrown away, for they were made without breath.
52.
A donkey, walking around a millstone, has walked a hundred
miles.
When it was untethered, it remained at the same place.
There are men who walk
much, but advance nowhere. And when evening comes for them, they have seen
neither city nor village to which they were going, they have cognized neither
the nature of the Creation nor the Power (i.e. God-the-Father), nor even
angels. Futile was the work of these miserable.
53.
Our thanksgiving —
to
Jesus! In Syriac, He is called Pharisatha, i.e. the One Who exists everywhere.
Jesus came to show the
crucifixion of that which belongs to this world.
54.
The Lord once came to the dye-works of Levi. He took 72
different dyes and threw them into the vat. Then He took all fabrics from it,
and they were white. He said, “Even so the Son of Man works”.
55.
A woman who has not given birth to children may become a
mother of angels. Such a woman was Mary Magdalene, a companion of the Son. The
Lord loved her more than He loved all other disciples and oft en kissed her on
her mouth. The other disciples, seeing Him loving Mary, said, “Why do You love
her more than us?” Answering them, He said, “Why do I not love you as her?”
56.
When a blind person and a sighted person are both in the
darkness, they are not different from each other.
But when light comes, then
the one who sees will see the light, and the one who is blind will remain in
the darkness.
57.
The Lord said, “Blessed are those who verily existed
before were born (on the Earth).
“The one who verily exists now
was like this and will be.”
58. The superiority of man is secret: man has mastery over animals, which are stronger than man is, which are greater by appearance and power. However, it is man who provides them with food. But if man moves away from them, they begin to bite, slay each other. And they will eat each other if they do not find any food.
But now they will have food
because man has tilled the soil.
59. If those who were immersed in the Flow and having received nothing in It say nevertheless “I am a Christian!”, then they take this name on credit.
But if one has really received the baptism in the Holy Spirit, then such a person has the name ‘Christian’ as a gift.
The one who received a gift
does not have to give it back, but from the one who received a credit, this
credit may be taken back.
60. The mystery of marriage is similar to this.
Those who are in a pure marriage are honorable. For without this, one cannot find peace.
Man is the main essence of everything on the Earth. And the main (earthly) function of man is marriage.
Cognize the pure marriage, for it has great power!
As for its impure form, it
exists only as an outer appearance.
61.
Among
evil spirits there are both male and female ones. Male ones long for uniting with
the souls which inhabit female bodies, and the female spirits — with souls in male bodies, with those who live alone.
And no one can run away from such spirits when they seize an embodied soul, unless they combine in themselves the power of man and woman, i.e. in a marriage. Thus, one receives this power in a marriage, which is a symbolic prototype of uniting in the Bridal Chamber.
When primitive women see a man, sitting alone, they come to him, flirt with him, and defile him. In the same way primitive men, when they see a beautiful woman sitting alone, molest, rape, and defile her.
But if they see a husband and a wife sitting nearby, they do not approach them.
In the same way, it can be when one unites by the consciousness with an angel; then no evil spirit dares to come to such a man or a woman.
Those who have come out of the earthly cannot be seized by evil spirits, as it can happen when one is in the earthly. Now they are above passion… and fear. They become masters of their own nature; they are above earthly desires.
… Sometimes it happens that evil spirits see a single man and seize him, torture him… And how can he escape them, being subjugated by his own desires and fear? Where can he hide from them?…
It happens oft en that some
people come and say, “We want to become believers in order to get rid of evil
spirits and demons”… But if the Holy Spirit had been with them, then no evil
spirit would have cleaved to them!
62.
Do not fear the flesh, nor love it.
If you fear it, it will become your master.
If you love it, it will devour and subjugate you.
63.
Either to live in the material world — or to rise in the highest eons! But not to be found outside!
In this world, there is good and bad. However, that which is considered good in fact is not good. And that which is considered bad in fact is not bad.
Verily the bad exists outside of this world of matter! It is that which is outside. It is perdition there.
While we live in this world, it is necessary for us to acquire the Resurrection, so that when we strip off the flesh, we may be found in Calm, but not walk outside.
Yet many go astray from the Path.
It is good to leave this
world having not committed sins!
64. There are people who neither desire nor can work (on self-improvement).
Others desire but do not do this. And therefore, they do not benefit from such a desire. This only makes them sinners.
As for those who can but do
not desire, they will get their deserts: both for the lack of desire and for
the lack of deeds.
65.

66. The beginning of this fragment in the original text is damaged.
… I am speaking not about
the fi re which has no manifestation (i.e. symbolic, mythic), but about the
real one, which is white, which radiates the beautiful Light, which gives the
Truth.
67.
The Truth is not given to this world in clear form, but in
symbols and images. It is not possible to give It in other forms.
So, there are a birth (in the highest eons) and its symbolic image (an earthly birth). One has to reconstruct the Truth through this image.
Or: what is the Resurrection in reality?
In that way, image after image, man rises.
The same is with the Bridal Chamber: image after image, comes the Truth, which is Mergence.
I say this to those who are not just interested in the words “the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit”, but who gain Them truly for themselves.
But those who do not gain Them thus — then even these words will be taken from them.
Verily, one can gain Them by the blessing of God in the realization of all the fullness of the power of the Cross, which was called by the apostles the Right-and-Left.
The One, Who has cognized
this, is no longer a Christian but a Christ.
68.
The Lord has everything important in the form hidden from
this world: the baptism, the blessing, the transfiguration, the purification,
and the Bridal
Chamber.
69.
The Lord said, “I came to
bring the lowest to the Highest and the outer —
to
the inner. And to unite them THERE.”
He said about THAT place in symbols and images.
Those who say that God is above are wrong. Because about Him, Who is in That place, one may say that He extends below. And at the same time, He to Who belongs also everything hidden from this world — He is above everything!
In fact, it is just nattering: “the inner and the outer, the outer from the inner”…
Also the Lord called the place of destruction the outer darkness. And the entire world is surrounded by it…
He also said, “My Father Who is in the hidden”.
He also said, “Go into your chamber, close the door, and address your Father Who is in the hidden”. That is — to the One Who is in the depth beneath everything.
But the One Who is in the depth beneath everything is the Primordial Consciousness. Beyond Him, there is no one residing deeper.
Also they say about Him: “He Who is above everything”.
70.
Before
Christ’s coming, many people came out (from this world). They could not return
(immediately) to the place from which they came out. And they could not come
out (immediately) from the place to which they came.
But Christ came. And now
those who came in can come out, and those who came out can return.
71.
When Eve was in Adam, there was no death. When she was
separated from him, death appeared. If she enters in him again and he accepts
her, there will be no death anymore again.
72.
“My God, My God, why, O Lord, have You forsaken Me?” He
said these words on the cross.
Then He separated from that place That Which was Divine.
The Lord rose again (in a body) from the dead. He came as He was before. But now His body was perfect, though it was flesh. But this flesh was from the Primordial.
Our flesh is not from the
Primordial; we possess only a likeness of it.
73.
The Bridal Chamber is not for animals, nor for men-slaves
(of passions), nor for women driven by passion.
It is for pure women and
men who gained Freedom.
74.
Thanks to the Holy Spirit we are begotten on the Earth.
But we were born again thanks to Christ.
We are baptized in the Holy Spirit.
And after our birth in Him, we united with Him.
75.
Nobody
can see oneself, either in a flow or in a mirror, —
without
light.
And vice versa: you cannot see oneself in the Light without the Flow and without a mirror.
For this reason, it is necessary to be baptized in both: in the Light and in the Flow.
In the Light we receive the blessing.
76.
There
were three buildings in Jerusalem for making sacrifice. The one, opened to the
west, was called the holy. Another,
opened to the south, was called the holy
of the holy. The third, opened to the east, was called the Holy of the Holiest, the place where a priest enters alone.
The baptism is the holy.
The redemption of others (through one’s own sacrificial service) is the holy of the holy.
But the Holy of the Holiest is the Bridal Chamber.
In the middle of this fragment the original text is damaged.
… What is a bridal chamber
if not a symbolic image of the Bridal Chamber? The latter is above all evil.
Its veil is rent from the
top to the bottom, as an invitation for the chosen to enter.
77.
Evil spirits do not see and cannot seize Those Who dressed
Themselves with the Perfect Light.
Let such dressing with the
Light be secret Mergence.
78.
If the woman had not separated from the man, she would not
have died along with the man. The separation from him was the beginning of
death.
Therefore, Christ came to
correct the separation, to unite them, and to give the True Life to those who
died in separation, uniting them.
79.
So, let a woman unite with her husband in the Bridal
Chamber. Because Those Who have united in the Bridal Chamber will no longer be
separated.
Eve separated from Adam
because she united with him not in the Bridal Chamber.
80.

81. On the bank of Jordan, Jesus revealed (to John the Baptist) the Primordial Consciousness of the Kingdom of Heaven, Which was before the beginning of everything. Later He appeared (to John) again. Then He manifested Himself as a Son (of the Heavenly Father). Then He was blessed (by the Father to serve people). Then He was taken by the Father (from this world). Then He began to take (to the Father).
82. Since it is allowed to me to reveal this mystery, I say: the Father of everything united (in the Bridal Chamber) with the Bride Who afterwards came down (to crucified Jesus), and the Light illuminated Him then. And He (leaving that place) came to the Great Bridal Chamber. Therefore, His body, which appeared in the next days, came out from the Bridal Chamber. This body was similar to a body born from a unity of husband and wife (i.e. similar to a usually born body). Jesus made in it (in His new body) everything similar to the image (of a usual body).
It is necessary that each
disciple enter the Chamber of the Father.
83. Adam came into being from two virgins: from the (Holy) Spirit and from the uninhabited Earth.
Therefore, Christ was born
from (only) one virgin to rectify the mistake which occurred in the beginning.
84.
There are two trees in the midst of paradise. From one of
them originate animals, from another — men. Adam ate of the tree which
originates animals. He became an animal and then brought forth animals.
Therefore at present, animals like Adam are held in respect.
So, the tree of which Adam ate a fruit is the tree of animals. This is why his children became so numerous. And all of them also ate the fruits of the tree of animals.
As a result, the fruits of the tree of animals begot numerous people-animals who now honor only man-animal.
But God creates Men. (And
these) Men create God.
85.
Earthly people also create “gods” and worship their
creations. So let these “gods” worship these people — it will be just!
86.
The deeds of man result from man’s power. Therefore, they
are regarded as eff orts.
But man also begets children, which are conceived in calm.
The power of man is manifested in deeds, and calm — in children.
You may find that man is
similar to God in this respect. Because God also
performs
His deeds (in the Creation) thanks to His Power, but it is in Calm that He
begets His Children.
87.
In
this world, the slaves serve the free. But in the other world, the free will
serve these slaves.
However, the Sons of the Bridal Chamber will serve the sons of earthly marriages.
The Sons of the Bridal
Chamber have one and the same name. Calm is Their common estate. And They are
in need of nothing.
88-89. This

90. Those who say that they will die first and then rise are in error. If they do not receive the Resurrection while being incarnated, they will receive nothing aft er leaving their bodies.
It is the same with
baptism: it is significant only if it is received by the incarnate.
91.
It is I, Apostle Philip, saying: Joseph the carpenter
planted a garden because he needed wood for his handicraft. It was he who made
a cross from the trees, which he himself planted. And the Child of his semen
was hung to that which he had planted.
The Child of his semen was
Jesus, and the planted — the cross.
92.
The true tree of life
is in the middle of paradise. It is an olive tree, from which blessings come.
It is from this tree that the Resurrection is.
93.
94.
This world is a corpse-eater. And all that is eaten (by
humans) is contemptible as well.
But the Truth is a life-eater. Therefore, nobody who is nourished by the Truth can die.
Jesus came from that place,
and He brought food from there. And to those who desired, He gave thus the
(True) Life, and they did not die.
94. The beginning of this fragment is damaged in the
original text.
… Paradise is the place where I will be told: “Eat this or do not eat that — as you wish!” It is the place where I will eat anything, because there grows the tree of knowledge. It is this tree that destroyed Adam. However, it made man live actively.
The Law (of the Jewish
Bible) was this tree. It may suggest what is good and what is bad. But it does
not remove man from what is bad and does not strengthen man in what is good.
And it created destruction for those who ate of it. For when it commanded, “Eat
this, do not eat that!” — this became the beginning of death.
95.
The blessing is superior to the baptism, because it is
thanks to the blessing that we were called Christians, not thanks to the
baptism.
And Christ was called so thanks to the blessing. Because the Father blessed the Son, the Son blessed the apostles, and the apostles blessed others.
The one who was blessed will gain the Resurrection, and the Light, and the Cross, and the Holy Spirit.
To Him (to Christ) the
Father gave this (blessing) in the Bridal Chamber; He received this.
96. The Father was in the Son, and the Son was in the Father. Such are affairs in the Kingdom of Heaven.
97-98. Fragment 97 is damaged in the original text.
Fragment 98 contains an idea which is a continuation of the previous one;
therefore, it cannot be interpreted as well.
99.
This
world came into being (probably) by mistake. Because the one who created it
wanted to create it imperishable and immortal. But he (probably) died, not
attaining his goal, because the world did not become imperishable, as well as
the one who created it.
There is no imperishability of the fruits of material deeds, but there is only (the imperishability of the deeds) of the Sons and Daughters. And there is nothing that can attain Imperishability except only a Son and a Daughter.
The one who cannot even
accumulate one’s own power — how much more such one is unable to help others!
100.
The cup of prayer contains wine and water, serving as a symbol
of blood, over which thanksgiving is performed. And it becomes filled with the
Holy Spirit.
It belongs to the Perfect Man (to Christ).
When we drink it, we will become Perfect Men.
101.
The Living Flow is like the Body (of the Holy Spirit). It
is necessary that we dress ourselves in the Living Body. Therefore, if you go
and submerge in the Flow, you must become naked so that you may be dressed in
It.
102.
A horse begets a horse, a human being begets a human
being, God begets God.
The rest of this fragment is damaged in the original text.
103-104. Let me say about
the place where the Children of the Bridal Chamber abide.
In this world there is a union of man and woman. This is mergence of energy and calm.
In the highest eon there is another form of a union; we just use the same words. In that eon other Consciousnesses abide; They are above all words; They are beyond anything coarse, dense. This is in the place where the Power (i.e. the Father) is; in the same place are the Chosen of the Power.
Those, Who are there, are not the one and other: They all are One there.
And those who live here
cannot even leave their fleshly bodies…
105.
Not all who have a body are able to cognize their own
Essence. And those who cannot cognize their own Essence cannot use the
possibilities given to them for enjoyment.
Only those who cognized
their own Essence will enjoy truly.
106.
The Perfect Man cannot be captured (by evil spirits) and
cannot be seen by them. Because they can capture only those whom they see.
There is no way to acquire this boon but by being dressed in the Perfect Light and by becoming the Perfect Light. If one becomes dressed in It, one merges with It.
Such is the Perfect Light.
107.
It is necessary that we become men of Spirit before we
leave this world (i.e. before the end of this incarnation).
The one who acquired everything in this world, being its master, will not be able to become a master in another world.
Jesus cognized the whole
Path up to the end. But, nevertheless, He came to this world as a simple man (
i.e. He did not behave like a “master” ).
108. The Holy Man is holy entirely, down to the body. If one gives bread to the Holy Man, the Holy Man consecrates it, as well as water or anything else that may be given. All this becomes purified. And how will the Holy Man not purify bodies also?
109.
When performing baptism, Jesus “poured” life into bodies
and “poured” death out from them.
Therefore, we submerge now
in the Flow (of Life), but not in (the flow of) death, so that we are not
carried away by it to the spirits of this world. When these spirits blow,
desolation happens. When the Holy Spirit blows, bliss comes.
110. The one who cognized the Truth is free. The free one does not commit sin: because the one who commits sin becomes a slave of sin (i.e. burdens one’s own destiny, first of all).
The true knowledge is like a mother and a father (i.e. likewise teachers, advisers, and guardians of their child).
Those who are not capable of sinning are said to they have attained freedom. The knowledge of the Truth raises them even more. This makes them both free and above this world.
But only love creates. The one who becomes free thanks to knowledge, because of Love remains a slave of those who have not managed to attain the Freedom of knowledge yet. Such one brings the knowledge to them and this develops them because it calls them to the Freedom.
Love takes nothing: how can
it take something? Everything belongs to it. It does not say, “This is mine!
And this is mine!” But it says: “This is yours!”
111. Spiritual love is like wine and myrrh. Those enjoy it who were blessed (by God).
But others also enjoy it — those who stay with the blessed ones. But if the blessed go away, those who are not blessed fall back to their stench.
The Samaritan gave nothing but wine and oil to the wounded man. And it was nothing else but blessing. Thus he healed the wounds.
And love covers a multitude of sins.
112.
Those born by a woman resemble the man she loved. If he
was her husband, they resemble the husband. If he was her lover, they resemble
the lover. It happens that she unites with the husband, as she is obliged to
do, but her heart is with her lover with whom she also unites; then her
children resemble the lover.
But you, who are with the
Son of God, do not get attached also to the earthly! Rather be only with the
Lord, so that those begotten by you be not similar to the earthly but similar
to the Lord!
113. A human being unites with a human being, a horse — with a horse, a donkey — with a donkey. Representatives of any species unite with those similar to them.
In the same way, the Spirit unites with the Spirit, and Logos — with Logos, and the Light — with the Light.
If you become a human being — a human being will love you. If you become the Spirit — the Spirit will unite with you. If you become Logos — you will unite with Logos. If you become the Light — the Light will unite with you.
If you become one of
earthly rulers — the earthly rulers will
associate with you. If you become a horse, or a donkey, or a cow, or a dog, or
a sheep, or any other animal whether smaller or bigger, you will not be able to
associate either with human, or with the Spirit, or with Logos, or with the
Light, or with earthly rulers, or with those who under their rule. They will
not lie in bed with you, and will not accept your love.
114. Those who were slaves against their will may get freedom.
But those to whom the
freedom was granted by the mercy of the lord, but who, nevertheless, put
themselves into slavery again, — they will no longer be able to become free.
115.
Farming in this world requires four essences: water,
earth, air, and light.
In the same way, the farming of God consists of four essences: faith, aspiration, love, and knowledge.
Our “earth” is faith in
which we are deep-rooted; “water” is aspiration which carries us; “air” is love
thanks to which we live; and “light” is knowledge which allows us to mature.
116. The beginning of this fragment is damaged in the original text.
… Blessed be those who have not caused grief to any being.
Such was Jesus Christ. He greeted all in this world and did not burden anyone with Himself.
Blessed be those who live like this! For they are perfect men!
For Logos is like this.
117.
Ask us about Him! For we cannot reproach Him for anything!
How can we reproach this Great One? He gave Calm to everyone!
118.
First of all, one should not distress anybody: either big
or small, unbeliever or believer; then one should off er Calm to those who live
in peace and good.
There are Those Who can give Calm to those living in good.
Mere kind people cannot do this, because they themselves are still dependent.
And They cannot cause grief, (unnecessary) suffering.
But those, who are still on the way to becoming like Them, distress people sometimes.
The One Who has mastered the secrets of the Existence brings joy to good people!
However, there are those
who grieve and feel angry because of this.
119. A householder has acquired all sorts of things: children, slaves, cattle, dogs, pigs, wheat, barley, straw, grass, dog’s food, and best food, and acorns. As a reasonable man, the householder knows which food is for whom and thus gives bread and olive oil to the children; castor oil and wheat — to the slaves; barley, straw, and grass — to the cattle; garbage — to the dogs; acorns and bran — to the pigs.
So are disciples of God. If they are wise, they comprehend the discipleship. Fleshly forms do not deceive them, and speaking with someone they look at the state of the soul of that person.
There are many animals with
human appearance in this world. Disciples of God identify them and give
“acorns” to the “pigs”; “barley”, “straw”, and “grass” — to the “cattle”;
“garbage” — to the “dogs”; “sprouts” — to the “slaves”; and the perfect “food”
— to the “children”.
120.
There is the Son of Man (Christ), and there is the Son of
the Son of Man. The Lord is the Son of Man. And the Son of the Son of Man is
the One Who was created by the Son of Man.
The Son of Man received
from God the ability to create. But He can also beget.
121.
The one who has the ability to create (earthly things) —
creates (them). The one who has the ability to beget (children) — begets. The
one who creates (earthly things) cannot beget (at the same time).
But the One Who begets can also create. And the One Who creates — also begets. The progeny of such (Perfect) One is this Creation. This (Perfect) One begets also (another progeny) — not earthly children but Likenesses of Oneself.
The one who creates (earthly things) acts openly, not hiding. The one who begets acts secretly, in private. But this progeny is not like the progeny of the (Perfect) One.
The One, Who creates,
creates (also) openly. And the One, Who begets, begets the Sons and the
Daughters (also) secretly.
122. Nobody can know when a
husband and a wife united with each other, except themselves. Because their
marriage is hidden from the outsiders.
And if an impure marriage is hidden, then how much more a confidential mystery is the pure marriage! It is not fleshly, but pure; it is determined not by passion, but by sober will. It belongs not to the darkness and night, but to the day and light.
A marriage, if exhibited, becomes adultery. A wife is considered unchaste not only if she unites with another man, but even if she leaves her bridebed and is seen by others.
Let her meet only with her parents, friends of the husband, and the children of her bridal chamber; they may enter her bridal chamber every day. But let others dream of hearing her voice there and of enjoying the fragrance of her incenses! And let them be satisfied, like dogs, with the crumbs that fall from the table.
The Husbands and Wives (of
God) belong to the Bridal Chamber. One cannot see Them unless becomes as They
are.
123. The beginning of this fragment is damaged in the
original text.
… Abraham in order to perceive the One Whom he had to perceive performed circumcision of the foreskin, showing by this (symbolically) that we should rid ourselves of the fleshly — that which is of this world.
Then the original text is damaged partly.
… As long as the intestines
of man’s body are hidden, the body is alive. But if the intestines are
uncovered and fall out, the body dies.
It is the same with a tree: while its roots are hidden, the tree blossoms and grows. If the roots are uncovered, the tree withers.
It is the same with any phenomenon in the world, not only in the material but in the hidden one as well. Thus, as long as the root of evil is hidden it grows and is strong. When it gets known, it begins to bloom. But if its root is uncovered, it perishes.
Therefore, Logos says, “Already the axe lies at the roots of trees! If it does not cut up completely, that which was cut will grow again. Hence, it is necessary to drive the axe deep enough so that it tears out the roots.”
And Jesus destroyed those roots in the place where He worked. And He also did this partially in other places.
As for all of us, let us cut into the roots of evil, which we find within ourselves, and tear out evil with its roots from the soul!
We can tear evil out only if we know it. If we are ignorant of it, it will continue to grow its roots and multiply itself in us. Then it will get the complete control over us; we will become its slaves. It will enslave us more and more, forcing us to do that which we do not want to do and forcing us not to do that which we want to do… It is very powerful until we know about it in ourselves!
While it exists, it acts. Ignorance of it is the mother of evil in us. Ignorance leads us to death. And those who have not become free from ignorance have not existed yet as (true) people, are not existing, and will not exist!
Those who are in the true knowledge fill themselves with Perfection as the Truth reveals Itself to them.
For the Truth, even as ignorance, — while it is hidden, it rests in itself; but when it is revealed and recognized, it blooms, being praised.
How much more powerful it is than ignorance and errors! It gives us Freedom!
Logos said, “If you know the Truth, it will make you free”.
Ignorance is slavery. Knowledge is Freedom.
Seeking the Truth, we
discover its seeds within us.
124. Possessing manifest
things of the Creation, we regard them as significant and respected, while that
hidden from our eyes — we regard as useless and despicable.
But the reality is opposite: manifest things of this world are useless and despicable; but those found in the world hidden from us are significant and worthy of worship.
The mysteries of the Truth are revealed only through symbols and images.
125. The Bridal Chamber is
hidden. It is the innermost.
At first, the veil concealed how God controls the Creation. But when it is rent (for spiritual warriors who come close to it), and the One Who is inside reveals Himself, then one leaves this house of separation (the body). Moreover, it will be destroyed (dematerialized).
… But the Divine of a spiritual warrior does not enter the Holy of the Holiest at once, because It cannot unite (at once) with the Light, with Which It has not been united yet, and with the Primordial Consciousness, the gate to Which has not been opened yet (for entering). The Primordial Consciousness will be under the wings of the Cross and under Its Arms. This meditation will be the saving ark for the spiritual warrior even if the flood comes.
There are some of the companions of Christ who then will be able to enter inside behind the veil together with the High Priest (Christ).
The veil (of Jerusalem temple) was not rent at the top only. If it were so, then the entrance would have been opened only for those who are of high rank (on the Earth). And it was not rent at the bottom only, because then it would have pointed only to the lower ones (of social hierarchy). But it was rent from the top to the bottom.
The entrance is opened also for us who are low, so that we may enter the Treasury of the Truth.
In it, there is the One Who is by right held in high regard, Who is imperishable.
Yet, we make the Way to that place through disdained symbols and ephemeral images. They are disdained by those who hold the earthly glory. Yet, there is Glory above glory, and there is Power above power.
The Perfection opened for us the Treasury of the Truth. The Holy of Holiest was opened for us, and the Bridal Chamber invited us in!
… As long as all this is hidden from people, evil leads them to the futile. And they have not separated it from that which was sown by the Holy Spirit.
Such people are slaves of evil.
But when This approached,
the Perfect Light embraces every one (of those who enter It). And those who are
in It receive the blessing. Thus slaves become free, and those who were
captured become liberated!
126. Every plant which was planted not by My Heavenly Father will be torn out.
Let they who are separate — unite (in the highest eons) having become Perfect!
All Who enter the Bridal
Chamber will kindle the Light of Truth more, for They are not begotten in the
darkness as those begotten in earthly marriages! The Fire will burn in the
night and flare up stronger, because the mysteries of this Marriage are
performed in the Light of Day! That Light of Day will never cease (for Them)!
127. If one becomes a Son of the Bridal Chamber, it means that He has cognized the Light (of the Holy Spirit) before.
The one who has not cognized It in the world of matt er will not receive It in That place.
The One Who has cognized
the Light (of the Holy Spirit) cannot be seen and captured (by evil spirits).
And (evil spirits) cannot torment such Perfect Man even (incarnated in a body)
in the world of matter. Such Perfect Man has cognized the Truth and dwells now
in the Abode of the Primordial Consciousness! And It is opened for such Perfect
One — in the Light of the Holy Day!
