Jakob Lorber – The Great Gospel of John, vol. 5, part B<br />
[GGJ.05_256,09] I said, ―You can certainly divorce such a wife who is<br />
obviously an adulteress – but you may not take another wife while she is still<br />
alive! For you cannot know whether the wife in the future will not repent and<br />
return to your house full of regret and you then will have an improved, faithful<br />
wife. But if you have married another one in the meantime and the previous<br />
wife then came back to you improved and full of regret, you would not be<br />
able to accept her because of the new wife, and behold, that would be<br />
something very bad for you and even worse for both of your wives; for you<br />
could not show compassion to the older one and could not divorce the<br />
younger one, and yet you should be compassionate as the Father in heaven<br />
is compassionate. But if you cannot practice compassion, what are you then<br />
and what will you do in order to remain in My plan? But if you have a strong<br />
desire and much nature, then look back to the old fathers; but in your heart<br />
be faithful to God and protect yourself from desire and lust and adultery! For<br />
whores and adulterers will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Have you now<br />
understood that well?‖<br />
[GGJ.05_256,10] Peter said, ―Yes, Lord, now I am also quite in the clear!‖<br />
Chapter 257<br />
[GGJ.05_257,01] But now the innkeeper immediately came up to Me and<br />
said, ―Lord, does that also apply to us Gentiles?‖<br />
[GGJ.05_257,02] I said, ―Of course! For there is only one God and Lord; He<br />
wants to bring up all people equally, and I therefore came into this world to<br />
open the door to light and life also for you Gentiles. And the time will come<br />
and it is actually already there when the light will be taken from the Jews and<br />
given to the Gentiles.‖<br />
[GGJ.05_257,03] Then the innkeeper spoke, ―Very good, Lord and Master, it<br />
is good that I now know that; I will ensure that my companions remain in Your<br />
teaching and act accordingly. For I already guess whom I am dealing with!<br />
You are a God and no man; for no man has ever performed Your deeds, and<br />
the words which You have spoken have never flowed out of the mouth of a<br />
man. Such a thing is possible only for a god!<br />
[GGJ.05_257,04] But now I have another plea for You, who has now become<br />
a true god for me. Behold, we have a large number of children in this area,<br />
and I believe that if You would bless them in Your truly all-powerful way in<br />
future that would be of a great moral use in their maturity! Lord and – let‘s<br />
say – my God, have I placed a decent demand on You?‖<br />
[GGJ.05_257,05] I said, ―Well, go and let the little ones come to Me!‖<br />
