"because his hour was not yet come" - Use Minds Not to Earn Money but to Realize Peace

Use Minds Not to Earn Money but to Realize Peace

One has to use his mind to be successful in anything, like earning money.  Even a medical doctor uses his mind to cure a patient with his medical ability and knowledge in addition to applying medical devises and drugs.

So, it depends on one's mind whether he can succeed in anything or how much he will be successful.  Therefore, some people have trained themselves spiritually or in a religious manner to increase the power of their minds.  Some religious men even try to see the afterlife by enhancing their spiritual ability.  But, it is still unknown how the mind specifically works or functions in various situations.  So, some people might think that the best way is to sell their souls to Satan and be taught by Satan any tricks and dirty skills.    

However, Christ Jesus never taught people how to use their minds to earn big money or cure their diseases.  Instead, He taught people to love the God and the poor.  And, Christ Jesus told that only poor men could enter Heaven after their death and could live happy forever there.

Compared with any worldly happiness in this world, happiness in Heaven should be far greater beyond comparison than any happiness in this world.  The happy life the richest man in this world can enjoy should be nothing when compared with any humble happiness the least man in Heaven is allowed to enjoy.  In other words, the richest man in this world should look like a homeless in Heaven while others are enjoying life worth trillions of dollars or more.  

So, Christ Jesus actually taught the way to use one's mind to be ultimately successful in one's life including his life in this world and after death in the spirit world.  What is the ultimate success in one's life?  It is to be accepted in Heaven and given eternal happiness and life.  And, the God loves the poor and poverty, so that men must love poverty and the poor so as to be accepted in Heaven by the God.

One has to use his mind to be poor, which is a conclusion.  And, Christ Jesus told the way to become poor: Give your own money to the poor.  It means that Christ Jesus told the way to become ultimately happy, although in the afterlife: Give your own money to the poor. 

However, it might be a little difficult for men to understand why the God loves poverty and the poor.  Or, rather, it might be impossible for men to realize happiness in Heaven.  But, they can understand the worldly happiness that can be bought by big money which can be earned through Satan's teaching.  But, if you have the eyes with which you can see the afterlife or the spirit world including Heaven and hells, you will do anything to enter Heaven.

As people cannot see the afterlife or the spirit world including Heaven and hells, they are used to think that they have to earn money as much as possible while they are living in this world, since there is no assurance of existence of Heaven.  Or, they may think that even if there is Heaven, they might be accepted in Heaven no matter how rich they have become in this world.  And if there is no Heaven, it is stupid not try to be rich as much as possible while they are living in this world.  And, in the world full of this kind of people, there cannot be true peace.  Indeed, this world full of this kind of people should be corrupted and debased to any degree as we see the world now.      

Therefore, Christ Jesus never told how to use minds to earn money.  But, He seems to have actually taught how to use minds to cure diseases.  In any case of His healing patients, He seemed to have used his belief in God.  Actually, Christ Jesus told a man whose disease was cured by Him that his belief in God had saved him.  The sure way for spiritual healing or healing through supernatural power should use one's own belief in God.

This good lesson can apply to the current world situation.  Peace in the world cannot be achieved through economic power or military power that can be acquired with money.  But, we should use our mind with belief in the God.  The whole world today is sick.  And the best way to cure this disease of the earth is for people to use their minds praying for achievement of peace based on their belief in God.  That is why Mother Mary in her apparition told so many time to pray to the God as much as possible.

Indeed, without work and functions of minds, you cannot even pray to the God.  And, in this case, Satan should also feel at a loss.  But, if nobody can think that he should sell his soul to Satan to become materially happy, the world might not become more deteriorated to the degree that the whole world will be a hell.

Anyway, we have to thank the God since He has given us freedom to use our own minds in whatever ways we choose.

John 7, King James Version

28 Then cried Jesus in the temple as he taught, saying, Ye both know me, and ye know whence I am: and I am not come of myself, but he that sent me is true, whom ye know not.
29 But I know him: for I am from him, and he hath sent me.
30 Then they sought to take him: but no man laid hands on him, because his hour was not yet come.
31 And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done?
