Christianity - Nominal Christians – Act – God becoming man.
27. August 1948. B.D. NR. 4420.
Who is not for me, he is against me – and who confesses me with the mouth only and does not feel the belonging to me in the heart, he is likewise not of my herd, which I will fetch home on the last day into my kingdom. The name Christian is not enough to be a Christian, therefore to be a confessor of mine, but the thinking and acting, the inner desire to belong to me, only makes man to my follower, and then it makes no difference to which race, which nation and which denomination he belongs. And this is so significant, as it really even gives an acceptable explanation for the fact that Christianity is taught on the whole earth, that therefore certainly a great crowd of followers is scored, but who are no Christians by any means, and consequently the world is also not improved through my teaching, when it is not obeyed, therefore forms genuine Christians. Action-Christianity alone is to be described as Christianity, and this will also bring about men, who bring evidence for it that the Christian teaching is divine, because they will have light and power at their disposal to a high measure; they will be full of wisdom and be able to accomplish things, which testify to my help; they will prove it that they are with me in association and therefore my love teaching is the alone right teaching, the one embracing truth. But if men let themselves be satisfied with words, if they certainly know about the Christian teaching, but do not live it out, they will not be entitled to the name "Christian," although they are incorporated to the organizations, which stand up for me and my name. I am not satisfied with empty prattling with the lips; I check the hearts and reject who is found wanting. And I concede that those are right who do not acknowledge this Christianity as divine work, because it does not find my approval, to use my name and to disregard my will. But my will is that the teaching, which I directed to earth through the man Jesus, will be accepted in all pureness and therefore also obeyed, so that the effect of the obedience of my teaching can become evident and faith and love towards me are reinforced as a result. But on the other hand it is up to every man to check, and that is truly more advisable, than to reject without examination. Who therefore wants to reject me myself, because he judges according to those who are no right followers of mine, but just nominal Christians, he is himself also to be condemned, because all of you are to examine and keep the best. But a serious examination will also lead to the acceptance of my love teaching; then you will also give full expression to it and experience its effect with you yourselves. But if you reject my teaching, then you also reject me myself, and that will earn you no blessing, because without me you cannot become happy. Through the man Jesus I myself spoke to all men on the earth; it was me myself who died for you on the cross.
I just chose a form for myself, through which I could make myself visible to you. Therefore the man Jesus was only insofar the mediator between me and you, as I could be showable through him, if your existence should be secured. That the form, the man Jesus, had to first form himself through a right walk of life, that he could serve me as stay, was at the same time for men an example for the effect of right used will, because he showed men the way, which leads to perfection. But what spoke out of him, that was I myself; it was my word, which he preached, therefore my will was announced to men through mediation of the man Jesus. And consequently he also cannot be rejected, if one wants to acknowledge me myself as originator of the pure love teaching of Christ. But that my word is not just human word, will everyone sense, who gives full expression to it, because he will experience the effect on himself; he will become wise and be full of power, because he then likewise gets into association with me as the man Jesus, who, through his exemplary walk of life, received light and power from me in all fullness and who therefore is to be mentioned as divine being, although he has lived as man on earth. And for that reason I will again and again seek to explain to you the mystery of man becoming God in Jesus Christ; again and again I will give you information, why you are not allowed to reject him, if you want to believe in me and reach me. Because he and I are one, and who rejects him, he also rejects me, because he was embodied love, which is my original substance from eternity, and I was therefore in him and my power was expressed through him. His word was my word, and the word was I myself. Amen. B.D. NR. 4420.
