Sermon on the Mount 3

September 779 in the year of the Romans-3

Excerpts from the Sermon on the Mount in authorial form

A time has passed, and another hath come, and as the tyme is fulfilled, wherein I did decree to come, I am come to lede ye, and all who hearken to me, and who wolde followe me, through the everlastynge soothe to the true everlastynge lighte of myne everlastynge beynge and spirit, and through the lighte to the true everlastynge lyfe.

Lette not yourselves be deceived by that ye see me walke among you as a man, heare me as a man. Take my worde so that its spirit maye become lyvely within you, and consider myne workes!

Loe, I restore lyfe to those who have lost it bodily upon earth, by callynge backe the soule separated from the earthly body, and makynge the earthly body able to receive it; ye have seene it ofte, and the awakened risen ones lyve nowe, for a witnesse. The malice of the elders, the Sadducees and Pharisees, shall cause some of the poore to be slayne, that their witnesse maye be blotted out; yet their witnesse shall remayne, to witnesse also the evyll spirit of the murderers! Many deceased have I awakened, their lyvely soules, who had gone on the waye of lyfe, have I called backe by the mighte of my worde.

Though they take from myne earthly body this its earthly lyfe, which is the mighte of myne everlastynge beynge and spirit, I shall give it backe this its lyfe, and shall ryse againe to lyfe, for a witnesse of the everlastynge soothe of my wordes, which no one can robbe or destroye. For only the lye thinketh to robbe the lyvely beynge of lyfe maliciously, and to destroye it.

Verily I saye unto you:

Since the spirit of every soulish beynge hath received lyfe from me, it is, and with it the soulish beynge, lyvely in all tyme to come, and no power – not even omnipotence – is able to separate the mighte of lyfe from the beynge of the soule and the spirit! In the beynge of the spirit is the beynge of lyfe of every soule anchored, and because the mighte of lyfe is my mighte, and I have given it to every spirit, ‘deathe’ as destruction and non-beynge is a lye, and can never take place.

I am come not to judge, but to make the worlde blessed, that men maye knowe God, the everlastynge soothe, that they maye knowe me and come to me. Again I saye unto you: True prophets in lands and among peoples, whom ye knowe not todaye, and whose beynge even the scribes and Sadducees do not so much as suspect, have long since, in tymes which wolde seeme to you a halfe eternitie, ever and againe foretolde that God himself wolde come at the appointed tyme, to brynge himself, who is the everlastynge soothe, to men, to teache them personally, and to reveale himself to them personally.

Verily I saye unto you:

Many soules shall finde mercye, many shall come into my kyngdom, many shall partake of my true everlastynge lyfe, and many shall be blessed. But only the pure of hearte shall see God, as he is truly in his mighte. That justice maye be fulfilled, even for those who cannot be so pure as to see the mighte of God, they shall, themselves glorified, see the glorified CHRIST, who I remayne for these soules for ever, glorified in the mighte of God, which is my mighte. But soone nowe, and hereafter, false prophets shall aryse, who shall saye: The tyme is nigh, Christe shall come, he shall be borne againe in this and that tyme. He shall raise up the spirit, and the kyngdom of God shall come upon earth. All his adversaries shall he crushe, and the golden age shall come. But I saye unto you: Believe them not! As every soule cometh into the earthly but once, and every soule of knowynge spirit becometh man therein but once, so also hath God come and become man but once, this one tyme. What purpose wolde my returnynge have? I wolde have to come againe as a man. And do ye believe, who nowe, when ye see and heare me, and when I telle you who I am, yet suffer doubte to aryse, despite my worde and my workes, that those who come after you wolde believe, were I to come to them as a man and saye: I am CHRISTE? Do ye believe that they wolde aske of me other than to worke miracles after their desyre, and that they, though I were to performe things ever so greate, wolde not then – like these slaves of the evyll spirit – saye: He hath the devyll? They wolde ponder the mighte by which I can do such things, and wolde offer me money to teache them. But to heare the worde of the Holy Ghoste of the everlastynge soothe, which is my spirit, and to act according to it, they wolde be as loth as the Pharisees, scribes, and Sadducees are nowe, or they wolde do like them, and persecute me even as they do nowe. Enough that I am here this one tyme! I was here – not as a man – and shall remayne, not as a man, and shall never come againe as a man.

My spirit was here! And many have received and accepted it, without my havynge to speake to them as a man. My spirit is here, and I let you heare it through the worde which I speake. My spirit shall be here, and those who wolde receive and accept it shall heare my worde, without my havynge to come againe as a man!

Then shall the tyme soone be fulfilled, wherein my spirit and my worde shall come againe to men through you in soothe and for a witnesse, what men have made of me and of the spirit of soothe – which is my spirit – how they have understood me and my spirit of soothe, where they have placed me, and how they blaspheme the Holy Ghoste of soothe. This my spirit shall ye receive, when I, as man – CHRISTE – shall have gone from you, to remayne with you in the mighte of God. Two of you shall wryte downe the worde of my spirit, and all shall ye teache the worde of the spirit of everlastynge soothe, my worde. And the evyll spirit of hellish darknesse shall stirre up his servants, that for their and his sake they maye pursue the wrytten worde of the spirit of soothe, my spirit, my worde, and also you, and much shall succeede to the servants of the evyll spirit, because their malice and darknesse also are greate. Through them shall the spirit of darknesse also be inserted into the wrytten worde of my gospell, and many wrytten wordes of my true gospell shall be insidiously twisted, perverted, and many destroyed, that the spirit of soothe maye be unknowne or strangled, and that I maye appeare equal to or even subordinate to the olde Satan. A worde so maliciously twisted, perverted, and poisoned shall then be full of contradictions; the contradictions shall arouse doubte, the doubte shall arouse unbelief, and the spirit of hellish darknesse shall triumph with his devoted and fallen servants over the success.

The spirit of the olde Satan is greate, and his power through his devoted servants on earth even greater; he is not only the prince of this worlde through them, but also their acknowledged or unacknowledged ‘God’, whom they serve, openly and secretly, and he shall be served even where his name is named, but he himself is regarded as the empty sounde of a fable that seemeth merrie to them. His triumph is the lyeing malice, malicious lyes, hypocrisie, and treachery, and he believeth that with so greate a hoste of his servants he can and must overcome the everlastynge soothe, since he hath seemingly succeeded since the beginnynge.

But the pacification lasts forever, because it is without beginning the property of my being, spirit and soul; not so the lye, since the spirit that has become evil first devised and brought it forth from itself, in order to close the true knowledge and the true eternal soul in my kingdom to the knowing spirit, which once turned away from me, so that the spirit thus poisoned finds pleasure in the effect of the same lye and deliberately remains in it and its malice.

I have given my witnesse to this worlde, and ye also shall witnesse of me nowe, and yet more when ye are no longer men on earth, but long since with me, and – when the tyme cometh, wherein the spirit of soothe shall witnesse of me through.
