CHAPTER 46

The Transfiguration of Jesus -
The Twelve Commandments

His path of suffering, His further mission as Christ
and the future of mankind and of the earth were revealed to Jesus in His transfiguration (1-6). The New Israel (7-21). The new law of love - No soul is lost (22-24). The purging of the soul (25). All true prophets are not recognized (26-28)

1. After six days, when the feast of the tabernacles was near at hand, Jesus took the twelve with Him and led them up a high mountain. And as He was praying there, the appearance of His figure changed, and He was transfigured before them, and His face shone like the sun, and His raiment was as white as the light.

2. And behold, Moses and Elijah appeared to them and talked with Him, speaking of the law and of His passing, which should take place in Jerusalem.

3. And Moses said, "This is the One of whom I foretold: From the midst of your brothers, the Eternal will send you a prophet who is similar to me, and what the Eternal tells Him, He will tell you, and you should listen to Him, and those who do not want to obey Him prepare their own destruction.”

4. Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, it is good to be here; if You want, we will build three tabernacles here: One for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.”

5. And while he was still speaking, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them, and twelve rays as of the sun broke forth from behind the clouds, and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, "This is My beloved Son with whom I am well pleased. Listen to Him.”

6. As the disciples heard this, they fell on their faces and were very frightened. Jesus came to them and touched them, saying, "Arise and be not afraid!” But as they lifted their eyes, they saw no one but Jesus. And the six rays were to be seen upon Him. (Chap. 46:1-6)

I, Christ, explain, correct
and deepen the word:

The cherubs of the natures of God announced to Me, Jesus of Nazareth, My death in Jerusalem, and revealed My further path as the Christ of God. At the same time, I saw in images My path of suffering and what it means for all souls and men. I also saw My deeds as the Christ of God in heaven and on earth. I also saw the further sufferings of man, despite the Redeemer-deed. I saw the light of the earth, how it takes on form and shape very gradually, and saw the many people who fulfil the will of God more and more. I saw the entire mission and also the lineage of David - from which I, Jesus, came in the flesh - and its activities with Me, the Christ of God, on this earth and in the spheres of purification.

I also saw the end of the earth and of all material forms. Everything was revealed to Me.

The twelve rays mean, among other things, the twelve gates of the eternal Being, which descend to the earth more and more and from which the radiation for the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ comes forth.

The six rays mean the six basic powers of the heavens; the seventh basic ray, the mercy, dwelt among the people. The rays are to be understood as symbols. They are active in Me, the Christ of God, and become visible in the world: the law of life and the activity of the light among the people in the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ.

7. And Jesus said to them, "Behold, I give you a new law which, however, is not new, but old. Just as Moses gave the Ten Commandments to the people of Israel, according to the flesh, so will I give you the twelve commandments for the kingdom of Israel, according to the Holy Spirit.

8. Who is this Israel of God? All those, from every nation and every tribe, who practise righteousness, love and mercy and follow My commandments are the true Israel of God.” And standing up, Jesus said:

9. "Hear, O Israel, Jehovah, your God, is the only One. I have many seers and prophets. All live and move and have their existence in Me.

10. You shall not take away the life of any creature for your pleasure or your profit, nor torment it.

11. You shall not steal the goods of another one, nor gather for yourselves more land and riches than you need.

12. You shall not eat the flesh, nor drink the blood of a slaughtered creature, nor anything else that harms your health or your consciousness.

13. You shall not make impure marriages, where there is no love and purity, nor corrupt yourself or any creature that has been created pure by the holy One.

14. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbour, nor wilfully deceive someone with a lie in order to harm him.

15. You shall not do to anyone what you do not want to have done to you.

16. You shall worship the One, the Father in heaven, from whom all things come, and honour His holy name.

17. You shall honour your fathers and mothers, who care for you, as well as all righteous teachers.

18. You shall love and protect the weak and oppressed ones and all creatures that suffer wrong.

19. You shall work all that is good and necessary with your hands. You shall eat the fruits of the earth, so that you live long in the land.

20. You shall cleanse yourselves every day, and on the seventh day, rest from your work, keeping holy the Sabbath and the feasts of your God.

21. You shall do to others what you want them to do to you.” (Chap. 46:7-21)

I, Christ, explain, correct
and deepen the word:

The one who keeps these commandments becomes an inhabitant of the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ, which has its laws that the Eternal revealed.* For My Kingdom of Peace is the New Israel - no longer the old Israel. The New Israel emerges in another country on this earth and with those people who have made and also keep the covenant with God for the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ. The old Israel remained in sin.

And so, David became the progenitor, in the flesh, for the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ; the divine wisdom became the progenitress, in the Spirit, for the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus Christ. The lineage of David is, at the same time, the lineage and the tribe for My kingdom on earth: The Kingdom of Peace.

From the ruins of the old sinful world, the New Era, the New Israel with the New Jerusalem, is arising first as the Covenant Community in God, My Father, and in Me, the Christ of God, then as the city of Jerusalem and, in the Era of Light - when all that is materialistic draws to an end - as the state of Christ, the Christ State for the World Kingdom of Jesus Christ.

Meanings of words change. And so the following correction holds true:

The word "honour” in the commandment "You shall honour your fathers and mothers who care for you, and all righteous teachers, as well” is replaced by the word "respect”. To God alone is due honour. Among themselves, people should respect their life from God.

22. And when the disciples heard these words, they beat their breasts, saying, "Forgive us, O God, if we have done wrong, and may Your wisdom, Your love and truth within us incline our hearts to love and follow Your holy commandments.”

23. And Jesus said to them, "My yoke is equal and My burden is light and, if you want to carry it, it will become easy for you. Lay no other burden but those which are necessary on those who enter the Kingdom of God.

24. That is the new law for the Israel of God, and the law is in Him; for it is the law of love and is not new, but old. Take heed not to add anything new to this law nor to take anything away from it. Verily, I say to you, all those who believe and who follow this law will be saved, and those who know it and do not follow it will be lost. (Chap. 46:22-24)

I, Christ, explain, correct
and deepen the word:

From the commandments of God for the kingdom of Israel, the law, that is in Him, emerged for the New Israel of God. It is the law of love. It may be new for many people who are taking the first steps towards the law for the New Israel. However, it is given from the eternal law of life for the people of the New Era. The eternal law is described in the word [in the text of the "Gospel of Jesus”] as "old”; in this context it means "eternal”.

I correct: Replace the words "be lost” by the words "lose their way”, because this is how it is meant. Verily, I say to you: All those who believe and who follow this law will be the saved ones. And those who know it and do not follow it will lose their way in the world and will have to endure what they have sown, until they find themselves again as children of God in Me, the Christ of God.

No soul is lost. In every soul is the Redeemer-spark; it is its beacon into the inner home, into the inner peace, whence it came as a being of light and where it goes, again as a pure being of light, as a child of God.

25. But just as all die in Adam, so will all be made alive in Christ. And the disobedient will be purged through many fires; and those who persist will descend and be lost for an aeon.” (Chap. 46:25)

I, Christ, explain, correct
and deepen the word:

"But just as all die in Adam, so will all be made alive in Christ” means that the shell of the soul, the material body, which gradually developed through the fall and which is of this earth, will die. But the soul which is not of this earth, but came out of the heavens as a pure being, as a spirit being from God, will recognize the light of its homeland again through Me, Christ, and will return there as a pure being.

"And the disobedient will be purged through many fires; and those who persist will descend and be lost for an aeon” means that the fire is the process of purging. It is the torments of those souls which have sinned against their fellow men, against animals, plants and minerals. All that is not atoned for requires purging. The torments of the soul are the images of all that has not been atoned for. What people, animals, yes, all of nature had to endure because of man, then comes up in images in the soul of the originator. The soul experiences in its own spirit body the grief, the pain and the anguish - all that it inflicted, as a human being, on people, animals, plants, stones and minerals. This is then the fire, the purging of the soul.

The stubborn and unreasonable ones "will descend” means that they will go into incarnations which are poor in light and, alternating between being born and dying, will expiate what they have caused. This may take not only one aeon but many aeons. Aeons can also be described as cosmic light cycles.

26. And as they came down from the mountain, Jesus commanded them, saying, "You shall not speak to anyone about this vision until the Son of Man has risen again from the dead.”

27. And His disciples asked Him, "Then why do the scribes say that Elijah has to come first?” And Jesus answered, saying to them, "Elijah shall truly come first and restore everything.

28. But I say to you that Elijah has already come and they have not recognized him, but have done whatever they pleased to him. In the same way, the Son of Man will also have to suffer at their hands.” Then the disciples understood that He had spoken to them of John the Baptist. (Chap. 46:26-28)

I, Christ, explain, correct
and deepen the word:

At all times, the true prophets announced the great spirit beings, God's messengers of light in earthly garment, and people waited for them. However, as long as the true proclaimers, the prophets, were among men, they were not recognized, but doubted, discriminated against, persecuted or even killed. The people did not believe in their message; for the prophets were men among men, even though they had a high divine consciousness, which the worldly person could not perceive or grasp. Not until these great proclaimers of God were no longer in the temporal, were their words alive again in many an ear. Only then, after their discrimination, persecution and after their death, were many of them acknowledged as true prophets and proclaimers of God and entered into the history of mankind.

When the great spirit beings in earthly garment who had been announced and were expected by the people appeared before the people, they, too, were not recognized, but were also mocked, ridiculed or even killed. When they no longer were in the temporal, they were remembered and were spoken about as the true prophets and great beings from God who were in earthly garment. Because man looks only to the person, to the external, and hears only the word of the person - and does not endeavour to understand the meaning of the words - the masses considered all great spirit beings in the earthly garment as agitators, impostors, false prophets or teachers, who just wanted to distinguish themselves, and so figuratively called out: Crucify them!

And so, the people recognized neither John - in whom was not Elijah, but over whom the spirit of Elijah radiated - nor their Redeemer and, just as little, the righteous prophets and enlightened men and women. Not until the great spirit beings were no longer among them as human beings were many recognized and praised with words. The people recorded the words of some of them in the book of the institutions, too, which they called and call the Bible. However, the actualization of what the great spirit beings taught was and is yet to be accomplished; for to this day [1989], many have forgotten to live what the messengers of light of the heavens brought to mankind: the laws of selfless love.

What good is fame if the people do not fulfil what has been announced by those whom they praised? The divine souls in earthly garment, the true prophets, the great spirit beings, returned to the Kingdom of God and received their reward from God. Of what use is it to mankind when they are made famous in a book, which tells of their greatness and in which their prophecies are written down - when, however, these hardly find an echo in man, that is, are hardly taken seriously and actualized?
