Jakob Lorber – The Great Gospel of John, vol. 5, part B
[GGJ.05_175,08] You all seem to be a very best-placed society of artists and
to try to achieve a so-called earthly happiness!? We very happy ones can
only feel regret for you, if you want to seek the true happiness in life on some
other field than only on that which is to be found remaining. Stay there and
build yourselves small huts to live in just like ours! Be satisfied in this void
meaningless life which signifies nothing with the least possible, and you will
only then gradually see and know how very right and true what I have just
said to you!
[GGJ.05_175,09] And you, main speaker, will also understand that this real
knowledge of mine is of very much more value than your firm, undoubting full
faith! What good is it for you if you with your full faith replace also whole rows
of mountains, but in the end must still die and cross into the never-ending
destruction? We are all nothing but a game of the great nature between
Earth, moon and sun! Between these three laws are casually built, and their

you think this life has no value at all and is simply a game of the great nature
– truly you are very wrong in that! Have you never heard of a God then, who
created heavens and Earth and everything that there is through His own
power? One can easily see a certain order in everything that there is. The
purposefulness of the parts of an animal and even more so those of a
person! How well designed are eye and ear!
[GGJ.05_176,02] Can you really accept with even some higher thinking that
all that was done by only very dead and lifeless laws alone?! Oh, despite all
the great wisdom you think you have, you are still very pathetic, and it is very
easily comprehensible to me why you find this earthly life so very despicable
and worthless! You have indeed travelled many lands with your companions
with some considerable difficulties, you have seen and experienced much –
but yet you have never concerned yourself with the best part of life!
[GGJ.05_176,03] At the beginning you sacrificed yourself only for the
material salvation of life. But things would not make you happy, as it
sometimes happens in the world; for you were not a very particularly
