Church and doctrine - Part 3

2 is therefore quite incredible that the Churches, as well as the other major religions, have taken no notice whatsoever of this development. They adhere to an old judgment of theirs that has been superseded a long time ago. • Only private initiatives keep spiritualism alive these days. But it is actually not the assignment of private pundits and spiritists to intensively deal with this. The Churches are better financed for this and they also have the space and the reputation. • These high-quality REVELATIONS do not belong in the hands of private pioneers, but in the pulpits of Churches. This would raise the whole level of mankind considerably. Truly excellent contact with the hereafter demands considerable knowledge in all areas of life. One cannot expect the hereafter to furnish anything much, if the knowledge of the circle participants is only average or restricted. Those that ask dumb questions must expect silly answers in return. This is the reason why many circles’ activities border on blasphemy without the participants being consciously aware of the damage they cause. • We receive results from spiritual circles from all corners of the world and we are appalled about the nonsense that one regards as the truth and promotes as divine revelations. It is regrettable that spiritualism doesn’t have a professorship that gives the interested or mediums an opportunity to educate themselves. Practise requires an experience. One talks about occult things everywhere, about magic, mysticism, astrology, hypnosis and other special fields within occultism. • Congresses are arranged where one talks and talks and talks. Individuals and fanatics make an appearance with their practises that do not really help anyone. But the real, precious spiritualism gets short changed at these congresses by so-called experts of enlightenment. No surprise then that the path is extremely difficult when it is jealously and ignorantly barricaded by people from within one’s own ranks. Research into the hereafter, accurately fitting within mankind’s development these days, is an orphan that lacks love and welfare and can therefore not properly develop. • Genuine spiritualists belong at the forefront of the public worldwide. This is the motto of the hour that stands above all existing church religions. Questions and answers February 1970 Question : The Christian Church talks about a “blood sacrifice” CHRIST took upon himself in order to deliver mankind. What do they mean by this? ELIAS : This is a dogma they defended for centuries. The Church requires this dogma to promise people something good so that they remain faithful to the Church. • CHRIST could never pay for a debt with his blood, particularly not for the sins of the future.
