Chapters 8 to 9 - Christ’s Teachings and Today’s Christianity

- 81 - There is one more thing I wish to say to the reader of this book. In answer to the question of whether it is imperative that everyone must strive to enter into communication with God's spirit world in the manner described in this book. The answer is: “Yes and No.” – For whoever believes in God and trusts in Him, whoever obeys God's will according to the best of his knowledge, will reach God. This end can be achieved without a perceptible communication with God’s spirit world. However, anyone who harbors doubts as to God's existence, who wishes to obtain clarity about whether or not the doctrines of his religion are true or false, who seeks enlightenment about the great questions involving the Here and the Hereafter can learn the truth only in one way: C o mm u n i c a t i o n w i t h t h e g o o d s p i r i t w o r l d . To arrive at a firm conviction regarding his relationship to God and the Hereafter is the duty of every human being, according to the words of the Apostle Paul: Romans 14: 22-23: ‘You may come to your own conclusions in your own way. When you have your own convictions, hold onto them before God. For anything that is done without a firm conviction of its lawfulness is a sin.’ For the sincere truth seeker, truth is the treasure of which Christ says in a parable: Matthew 13: 44: ‘The kingdom of heaven is like a treasure buried in a field, which someone found [and buried again,] and, rejoicing in his find, went home and sold everything that he had, and bought that field.’ * * * * * * * The End * * * * * * *
