Jakob Lorber – The Great Gospel of John, vol. 5, part B<br />
trying to become one with them? Or is that something for the pure spirit<br />
whose level of education contains a soul in this world and in its body?<br />
[GGJ.05_187,06] You see, friend, there are still some contradictions to your<br />
previous speech which we even with the best will cannot bring under one hat!<br />
For either the action of such a union in life a highly serious one, on which the<br />
good or evil then the whole eternity depends – and it cannot possibly be all<br />
the same to the powerful other-worldly spirit whether his soul, developed<br />
either through his power and intelligence from God or out of matter, will<br />
become a true abomination even to him as a perfected spiritual being – or<br />
this previously-mentioned action is no highly and even holy serious one, but<br />
instead only a game of whims. Then we are right above all your wisdom no<br />
matter how high undeniably, if we claim that in the great natural world<br />
everything is only a vain game of forces, and we are living only as temporal<br />
jokes of the great nature, and the end comes with death for ever,<br />
unconcerned, which makes somewhere immortal perfect spirits which never<br />
worry about all of nature!<br />
[GGJ.05_187,07] For if for example some other-worldly spirit wants to call me<br />
into existence through God, but then no longer wants to look after me at all,<br />
he is then of no use at all, and if I as a soul should form myself entirely for<br />
him, without him helping in any noticeable way, then I can do without such a<br />
lazy spirit for all eternity! – Well, friend, how is it going there with your good<br />
and wise answer?‖<br />
[GGJ.05_187,08] Peter says to Me secretly, ―Lord, now I am already at the<br />
end of my wisdom too! I am now very worried about how John will get out of<br />
that one!‖<br />
[GGJ.05_187,09] I say, ―Do not worry! Through Me and with Me everything is<br />
possible!‖<br />
Chapter 188<br />
[GGJ.05_188,01] At this John began to speak again and said, ―My dear<br />
friends, if your insight was only half as developed, things would have been<br />
done with few words; but as it is indeed several will be needed. But so that<br />
you understand, I must first give to you all a very new revelation. And as the<br />
first calls forth and gives the other, and before you thought about coming to<br />
me with the three critical questions, I already knew about it and in my<br />
previous true image that I gave to you I built the material creation. Oh, you<br />
certainly do not come to me ever with a question which I had not known<br />
already long in advance! But if I have known already long in advance about<br />
the question to come, as well as your travel stories, you can also easily<br />
