Jakob Lorber – The Great Gospel of John, vol. 5, part B<br />
[GGJ.05_186,08] And if you will have observed the ever greater miracles of<br />
God for eon times eons of Earth years as a pure, independent and free spirit<br />
in the certainly very most heavenly society of the pure spirits related to you,<br />
you will for endlessly long not even stand at the beginning! If you really<br />
gather the courage, you must indeed receive an ever-increasing joy in life<br />
and no revulsion before the same! Speak again now you, how does this suit<br />
you?‖<br />
Chapter 187<br />
[GGJ.05_187,01] Hiram says, ―I am amazed at your knowledge of things. No<br />
school of the world nor your imagination gave you this! It almost seems to be<br />
because you have developed it here before us so easily and as something<br />
very familiar to you since an unthinkably long time; for truly, such a thing<br />
cannot be made up from thin air! Now we are telling you only that we<br />
understand and comprehend of all indeed as much as nothing basically, but<br />
we believe it completely because you tell us so, who have laid for us now in<br />
the short time of our being together indeed the very most enormous elements<br />
of your all-knowledge and your most incorruptible truthfulness in the simplest<br />
and clearest way in the world.<br />
[GGJ.05_187,02] But nevertheless I have another three important questions<br />
to ask you as far as the after-life is concerned. If you can give us also a<br />
satisfactory solution, we will then give up all our cynical wisdom for your sake<br />
and then ask you to teach us a better one. But the questions are very short<br />
and simply these:<br />
[GGJ.05_187,03] What sort of spirits are these that place their souls which<br />
are to be formed in the bodies of deaf-mutes and in those who are<br />
completely sappy from birth and the bodies of fools? What a spiritual<br />
development of a human soul allows itself to be awaited in such bodies<br />
according to our basic principles of reason? – That is the first question.<br />
[GGJ.05_187,04] What about the souls of children who die long before they<br />
actually are capable of their existence, at which there can be no talk at all of<br />
any spiritual development? From which other-worldly perfectly pure spirits<br />
from God do these come from? – You see, friend that is the second very<br />
important question!<br />
[GGJ.05_187,05] And the third question is this: What about those souls<br />
which have reached some world education and intelligence on the Earth on<br />
their flesh indeed, but then intentionally and very arbitrarily become entirely<br />
true abominations to the better human society? Why did the wise spirits<br />
certainly from God like you who placed them into existence allowed that, and<br />
why did they not care more for them who were called into being by them and<br />
