            The Word of God[1] at the feast of the Holy Cross Ascension[2]

I am the Good Shepherd, the Shepherd with the cross, and I have got a great name and My name is the only One Born of the Father Sabaoth, the true God of true God, and I walk within His light and I am light from the light and with it I give light to the world and I am the light of the world as long as I am in the world, and otherwise the world walks in the darkness, it walks to and fro without God and it does not know where it goes for it does not always have any shepherd upon it to tell it how and where it has to go.

I am the Lord Jesus Christ, for this is how My Father has called Me through the angels and there is no other name on earth and in heaven greater than My name. By submission to the Father I have received a great name, and by its deed I remain with the name of the Son of the Father Sabaoth, called of one being with the Father.

Peace to you, people of My word! I sit with you at the table of word on this day of the feast of the cross. The word cross is a great word and the name of this word has life in it. Not even man knows when he says: “Help me, holy cross!” No man knows when he says so, after he has learned from the parents to say this. I am sitting with you at the table of teaching, My people, so that those who seek with you after My teaching, that which is coming from above on the earth for those who want to learn from God, for the teaching which is on earth does not lead man to God and to eternal life with Him.

I have told you to take care of the uniform, which you have to wear, sons. On this day I want to go on and perfect this mystery more, and you should be perfected through it and you should make it more and more wholly upon you too. My image, which you have to bear, is My sign upon you. This is how I made it clear to you when I put on the table the teaching for the wearing of the uniform, by which I clothed each one of you when you came to give yourselves to Me and to be Mine after that and when I taught you how to get dressed.

Oh, it is hard for man to be Mine, for he needs a cross to take after Me if he wants to be Mine, and he needs a uniform, which does not need to be altered, and it needs to be worn endlessly, and sons of men should see this light among them and walk after it, after the one who listens to God on earth among people, and when man changes his uniform he also changes his obedience and it does no longer belong to God the one who loses the sign which proves him that he belongs to God on earth.

The uniform is the cross that is carried, well sons. Man puts the cross on his neck to have and to carry the sign of the Christian, but he has no idea how to carry the cross. I come and I clarify this meaning, as in order for the man to take this cross, he has to receive it upon him.

There is much sufferance for man to carry a cross, and this is his pain because he does not like obedience; he does not like to listen to God and to the one who is from God, and rather man hides for his will, because in order to do his will, man has to hide. When I wanted to ask Adam in paradise why he hid from Me, he got upset because I asked him and because I revealed his hidden conduct, and then he talked back to Me and got upset with Me, and he who hides from Me gets upset with Me and threatens Me by his behavior and by his word if I want to reveal him, and that one can no longer be Mine and he leaves and hides in order to leave and he seeks to go away somehow, for neither the love and nor the fear of God remains in the one who hides because of his will, because, if at least his fear remained, he would not leave, but he would humble himself instead, and here it is why man does no longer have any wisdom in order that he may not commit sin so that separation from God may come upon him!

Man has no fear of God, because he does not like to be with God and he likes to be with his hiding for his will. Then man denies his cross, rejects his uniform, rejects his will for God, he does no longer like to have a cross, and he does not like to be with Me and, therefore, he becomes God’s opponent, because the cross means steadfastness and obedience to God in submission and it is the sign that one belongs to God, (See the selection topic: „About the graven image and the sign of the cross”, r.n.) but whoever is ashamed to obey and to humble, that one is also ashamed with a cross and he does not remain under this sing, under the sign of the one who is submitted under the work of submission before God for the carrying of the cross.

It is known the man who carries a cross as well as the one who does not have love to follow the Lord for the carrying of the cross. As without a shirt one cannot stay in such a way that the nakedness of his body may not be seen, in the same way man cannot belong to God without carrying his cross, without having this uniform, the obedience in submission for it, as I required of the man in paradise to wear between him and God for the Lord’s will in him and with him. He who is dissatisfied is displeased because he does not understand the mystery of the carrying of the cross. The one who is not satisfied needs love and he suffers for love, as if he deserves it. He does not know to give love without wanting to receive back love and honor.

The one who is dissatisfied cannot be called a cross carrier and cannot build a way to God and to his rest with God. How can he say: “Holy cross, help me!”? How can the one, who is discontent, say that? He cannot tell discontentment to help him, since discontentment is that that throws him down. Oh, the life that you live can help you, man. You should have it as your help, man, and then you should also ask it to help you to God. Your life is the cross, which can carry you and help you, but if you are not a cross carrier and you are always gloomy in trials and you are discontent, then which cross do you ask to help you anymore, because you are not a cross carrier?

Oh, sons of My word that grows you up in order to be Mine, behold, the sons of men get ready and they are more and more painted, more adorned, more perfumed, more good-looking to draw the eyes of those around and to have great success, as they say; however you, sons, you should also get ready more and more, and you should want even more to have your adornment with God, to draw to Me all those who look at you and see Me in you and with you, so that I may have great success through you before them and so that they may take Me as their love, as their life, so that they may take Me as their guide, of their light from haven on the way with them; they should also take Me as the cross they carry and not the cross from the people for them, but they should take from only the Lord and carry.

Take care of the guard of your life, sons, as God’s sons have to take care to observe the day of the Lord’s rest with them. Oh, you should not sleep on My day of rest, but you should live it with sobriety for its power for you. Be like those who stand watch at the border, for this day is a border, and it is a day of watch for the man’s life, for in paradise man did not stand watch as I had taught him to do and he did not rest in the Lord, but rather he got up for the evil spirit and thus man did no longer remain within My work.

The carrying of the cross means the keeping of the commandments for life, but when those who are haughty get sick because of their disobedience and insubordination, then they can hardly be healed when they have this yeast in their blood, from which they have their conduct. People talk back, they take revenge against each other by their words, they prosecute each other, they are revengeful and know nothing of the mystery of the cross carrying, even if they put on a cross at their neck and rely on it or when they are proud with this sign either. It is different the sign of the cross carried on those who know what the cross and the help from it means.

Oh, people do not know that the trials and the sufferance that come upon them are even their help on their way to the Lord. Few are on earth among those who know to say in their hard life according to the truth: “Holy cross, help me!” Oh, who else can help man to God if not even the troubles that come upon him?

The salvation to man does not come on any other way, but only through troubles and patience for them, as it is written in the prophets: «Ask now, and see whether a man give birth to child: why do I see every man with his hands on his waist, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness. Alas! For that day is great, so that none is like it… but in time of trouble he shall be saved out of it?» (See Jer. 30:6, 7) In addition, it is written again: «Offer to God the sacrifice of thanksgiving. Pay your vows to the Most High. Call on Me in the day of trouble. I will deliver you, and you will honor Me». (Ps. 50:14, 15)[3] However, God has not spoken to the sinful man in the same way. To the wicked God says: «What right do you have to declare My statues, that you have taken My covenant on your lips. Seeing you hate instruction and throw My words behind you? When you saw a thief, you consented with him, and have participated with adulterers. You give your mouth to evil. You harness your tongue for deceit. You sit and speak against your brother. You slander your own mother’s son. You have done these things, and I kept silent. You thought that the “I Am” was just like you. I will rebuke you, and accuse you in front of your eyes. ‘Now
