You should not argue about which ways are right before God, if you only have the will to reach God. The Divine will lets the bread of heaven come to you wherever you desire it. And whoever takes it into his heart as the bread of heaven, his soul will also be fed - and this spiritual nourishment will bring him eternal salvation. To establish intimate contact with the Divine Savior and Redeemer, is the sole emblem of the Church of Christ, and thus everyone will be a disciple of Christ and follower of His teachings, who only recognizes the Savior, loves Him and unites with Him eternally. And he can now reach it by different ways, where the light of recognition shines for him ....
Only he has to establish the connection with God first, because the only purpose of his life on earth is to unite with the Father-Spirit from eternity. Therefore, those people who earnestly seek God will also reach Him, although they go different ways, because they always see the Divine Lord and Savior at the end of their way, and they strive towards His light-form ..... On the other hand, no certain way is a guarantee leading to the goal, if it is only followed because of tradition, but the figure of light is not consciously longed for. Because this way will stretch out endlessly, it will always appear as if it always leads back to the starting point, because the right goal is not yet recognized .....
Everyone considers the way he walks to be the only right one, and it can also be the right way for the individual, if it is only followed in order to finally come closer to the eternal Godhead. Every path becomes practicable through this desire, and every path leads to the goal. However, it must not be misjudged that often great strength is wasted on completely unimportant fulfillment of requirements which are in no way useful for the connection with God and which could therefore be better utilized; i.e., that the actual purpose of life is not served by this desire - i.e., that the actual purpose of earthly life, precisely the union with God, is thought of too little. On the other hand, completely irrelevant commandments issued by humans, are obeyed with utmost priority and the actual task - union with God - is not always put before all striving, but more often such a deepening into the greatest love and grace of God, is out of the question.
And so the desire for the Lord alone, always remains decisive whether the earthly child is on the right track, but not the different spiritual directions, which all need not exclude this desire for God. But if a clear instruction is given to you from above, you do well to accept it, because it leads you on the most practicable way towards the eternal home, and you see the light-figure of the Saviour clearly in front of you, so that you courageously and undauntedly walk that way which corresponds to Divine will, and you do not run the risk of going astray, because the Lord and Saviour Himself comes to meet you, and guided by His hand, you safely reach your goal ....
Amen
