LG33 Go shine!

Jesus said:
Call from the roofs of your houses,
what your ears have heard.
Because nobody lights a lamp
and hides it under a bushel,
nor does he put it in a hidden place,
but he puts the lamp on one foot,
so that everyone who comes and goes will see the light.

LG32 The gentle force

Jesus said:
A city built on a high mountain
and strengthened,
can’t fall,
but also not remain hidden.

LG31 Gather courage for the jump

Jesus said:
A prophet is not honored in his own village,
a doctor does not heal his friends.

LG30 The richness of an encounter

LG29 The poor existence

Jesus said:
If the body arose for the sake of the mind,
is it a miracle.
But if the mind arose for the sake of the body,
is it a miracle above miracle.
Really, I am surprised how this great wealth
has made a place of residence
in the midst of this poverty.

LG28 Drunk like a fundamentalist

Jesus said:
Was I in the midst of the world?
I appeared to them in the flesh,
did i find them all drunk,
and none of them thirsty!
My soul was grieved for the children of men,
for they are blind in their thinking,
and they do not see that they came into the world empty
and try to leave the world empty again.
But now they are drunk.
Only when they reject the wine will they change.

LG27 ”The world” as a frozen meaning

Jesus said:
If you are not stuck towards the world,
you will not find the kingdom.
If you do not observe the Sabbath as a Sabbath,
you will never see the father.

LG26 No love without openness to all that is

Jesus said:
You do see the splinter in the eye of your brother
but you don’t see the beam in your own eye.
If you remove the beam from your own eye,
then you will see clearly enough
to remove the splinter from the eye of your brother.

LG25 The fellow man is above the doctrine

Jesus said:
Love your brother as your soul,
save it as the apple of your eye.
