The Word of God[1] at the Feast of the Beheading of Saint John, the Baptizer

                                                                          (Translated by I.A.)

The purest love: the motherly love. The true gentleness is the day of rest of God in man. The true disciple is the worker of the salvation of the human kind. Rebuke is a watchman that came from God.

Oh, My people Israel of today, if I have you as My people, should I not stay into your midst?

Behold, My people, I always sit in your midst, to hold your hand, My people, as a mother holds her beloved child.

It is a heavenly feast, Israel, and I make feasts of celebration with you on the holy days, as I have no other joy, I have no other comfort. I have you, My people, as I chose you to have you, Israel. If it is celebration in you, I come with a spirit of feast, so that I may be into your midst, and when I come, I come into the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, the name that you bear, My people that love Me and follow Me to the Father. I come with My peace into your midst and I sweeten you with milk and honey from heaven, as a mother does with her child.

Oh, son, you should have a heart of a mother in you. Mother has the most beautiful heart. The love of a mother does not sin in love. It is a great thing for a man to have a heart of a mother in love. What kind of a mother would do any harm to her child if she was a mother? The same with you son, if you want to be pure in love, you should love anyone, but with the love of a mother, My people. I am both father and mother for you. I am the perfect love, which teaches you to have a perfect heart in love, a heart of a heavenly mother; not fleshly. When a child goes wrong, his mother rebukes him, his mother teaches him, his mother keeps him out of mistakes, his mother protects him, but she never leaves her child. How much more I, how should I forsake you, My people? I am the perfect love and I cannot forsake you. I like to protect you, to keep you out of mistakes, to rebuke you as a mother who watches over the good walking of her son.

The man speaks in his own way, and the Lord speaks in His own way. The man says that he is a good man when he speaks beautifully, gently and warmly. I have also spoken wonderfully and warmly but in My own way not in the man’s way. I was forgetful, but not justifying the mistake of the one that was forgiven. When I forgave the man I taught him afterwards; I rebuked him and told him what to do for his forgiveness. I did not speak as man speaks. When I said that I was gentle and humble, I added that I was gentle and humble in My heart, and God’s justice was into My heart, the Spirit and the truth, My people, and that is why I said that I am the Good Shepherd, Who lays down His life for the sheep, and of Whose voice the sheep listen and go after. I am good in the truth and not in the nature of the gentleness. Gentleness is something else than what the man understands; the man that loves gentleness in him or from another to him. Israel, open the scroll of the Scripture and see how My word was and what kind of gentleness it has carried in it. If I had been good like the man, I would have not been left by all. I was good like God, but the man does not know what it means to love God so that you may not forsake Him. The man does not know what gentleness is. It is God’s truth, son, and the man is true in his gentleness. If the man had been gentle and humble in his heart, he would have had gentleness like My gentleness, but the man is gentle and humble in his flesh, and the man’s flesh draws the heart of man to be one with it. If the man had had gentleness like My gentleness, he would have worked like Me not like the man. When a mother’s child goes wrong, she does not take him into her arms to rejoice over his mistake. She suffers in her heart but rebukes her child and is angry with his mistake, sighing in her heart for her child’s misconduct. She starts watching, and keeps watch with fear, lest her child may go wrong again. The heart of the mother is pure in love, is holy in love. Her child rejoices under her eyes of mother, but she suffers watching and watching again over the life of her child. I am the same for you, My people, chosen to be My child. I suffer watching over you and I would like you to watch, son, so that I may rejoice resting in you.

I long after the rest as I have had nowhere to bow down My head for seven thousand years; I do no longer have. I suffer from longing after the rest and I have nowhere to bow down My head; I do no longer have. Look how I come from heaven to you, My people, to make of you a place of My rest, son, as I long after the rest, My people. A bird, which comes from far away into your country, works a little bit until it makes a little nest under your eaves, and then it comes into her nest and it breeds her chickens and then it works to feed them, and it has where to bow down its head. But I do not have any rest, and I do not find anywhere a place where to enter and rest. I come to teach you to watch over you, to watch over you so that you may also give Me a moment of rest, son. Oh, I miss My resting day, My day of that time when I rested in the man from My labor, after I created the heaven and the earth for the man; for I created the man and I rested in him, and he in Me, and since then I have no longer had any rest and a place to rest; I do not have anymore, and I long, My people, after My resting day, of My day of old. That is why I said: «Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy in you, so that I may have a resting place in you».

Oh, My people, remember My day of rest and put it in you so that I may rest, My people, as I am all worn out. I have been looking for My day of rest for seven thousand years and I do no longer find it. Turn My people into a day of rest for your God, as that is why I gave you birth of My word, so that you may learn from it the rest of God in you, people with My name on your head. My people teach Me what I should do to find My day of rest. Remember it and help Me find it, as this it means to honor it.

Oh, dear and beloved Israel, oh, son, son, what a great gift My word is upon the earth! And I made you a distributor of the heavenly gift, My dear people among the peoples. You are little but no other people is greater than you among the peoples, as the greatest people is the Lord’s people. My speaking is not man’s speaking. I speak like God, My people. My gentleness is the truth of God, and man’s gentleness is man’s truth, but the truth is only one, and there is no other truth beside God.

I have never wanted the man to stay with Me forced by Me. I want to have friends, who love Me with their heart, with My truth in them. When all deserted Me and I left only with those little of Mine who loved Me, My speaking was not so gentle as the man would have expected to be. I even told them this: «Are you not leaving?». I wanted them to stay by their own accord, not by My will. This kind of disciples I want to have, to suffer together with Me, working the work of salvation of the human kind, as I worked and still work. There is no greater love than this, but the man does not know what kindness is; he does not know what gentleness of the heart is, as to be gentle and humble in your heart, you need someone to be with this way; not with everyone you may found, not with everyone, son, but only with the one who wants to be with Me.

I have never justified the man, but I loved the man, who had faith and hope in God, and I helped him for the work of love into My vineyard. But from whom shall I make disciples today anymore? Behold, the harvest is great and the disciples are few, very few. From whom shall I still make disciples so that I may announce My kingdom through them and to come with it on the earth? My people, do you know what has to be the work of a disciple of Mine? He needs to have a work for the salvation of the human kind, a work like its Teacher, as it is written: «Any worthy disciple is like his teacher». It is one thing for the man to work at his salvation, and another thing to work as a disciple of Jesus Christ, to the work of the salvation of the human kind from Adam to the last sound of the trumpet.

My people, you are My house, and in big house there are not only golden vessels, but also vessels of clay, wood and iron, and if anyone purges himself from these, he will be a vessel for honor and suitable for the master’s use, a golden vessel into the work of the master, a working disciple for the salvation of the human kind, a disciple who does not entangle himself in the affairs of life. He is busy with the words that bring life, and purges himself of all the vessels from the house, to be suitable to the master, not to the vessels from the house. Oh, the work of a disciple is great, as My apostles left everything they had and remained only with Me and with My word that they took and sown over the human kind for eternal life and into the will of the man, for I do not want the one who does not want Me. But behold, the seed needs to be sowed, so that the man may know about the seed and to choose over his life.

The man speaks earthly; I speak spiritually, and when I speak to the man about those from the earth, I go to those that are spiritual, to reveal them to the man, who does not know anything but only those from the earth. This is what I said to Martha at her speaking: «Martha, Martha, you are anxious and troubled about many things, but one thing is needed, and Mary chosen that one,
