"great is your reward in heaven" - To the 22nd Century over Satan

 


Tokyo

To the 22nd Century over Satan

Satan is real, according to the Gospels. It uses many evil spirits to attack human beings.  The reason for happening of frequent gun accidents in the U.S. should consist in this situation.  Satan and evil spirits are behind every tragic accident. 

But, the origin of evil spirits is the evil mind of human beings.  Human being will do any evil in order to satisfy their desire, which will connect them to Satan.

Therefore, human beings are responsible for evil, wrongness, and results from sins.  But, Christ Jesus and the Holy Mother tried and are still trying to save human beings from suffering results of their sins.  Yet, Satan wants human beings to join it in the hells.  Therefore, tragedies and problems never cease in the human world.  To understand the Gospels and this world, we have to understand this underlying conditions related to Satan who is trying to make human beings increase their wrongdoings, sell their souls to Satan, and fall down to the hells.

Indeed, the core of the Gospels is fight between Satan and Christ Jesus over human souls.  We have to make a decision as to whether we join Christ Jesus or Satan in this world.  Most parts of our life in this world and the afterlife are result of this decision.  What's more, the history of the human world is also a result of this collective decision made by all the mankind as a whole. 

In this context, the warning issued by the Holy Mother that the God and Christ Jesus will no longer protect the human beings from tragedies expected to come soon, since they have sold their souls too much to Satan.  We have to prepare for WWIII and the great natural disaster expected to come in this century.

Indeed, the current war in Ukraine might at last lead to WWIII, and the earth might undergo abnormal climates, or a pole shift or an earth axis shift.  In my speculation, WWIII will occur in 2020s and a great natural catastrophe will happen in 2030s.  And Satan and evil spirits will be behind these tragedies in the 21st century.  But, if human beings repent and come back to the teachings of the God, they will be able to survive the 21st century.  And, in the 22nd century, the human civilization should be very different from the present one; they will no more sell their souls to Satan.

Therefore, what is necessary for human beings to survive the coming tragedies in the 21st century and somehow enter into the 22nd century is to avoid connection with Satan.  This connection with Satan comes from our pursuing money and wealth to satisfy our desire.  Therefore, we have to accept poverty but deny material prosperity.  Then, we will not have any need to sell our souls to Satan so as to be rich and happy.  In other words, we have to be more spiritual than material.  We have to be like poor followers of Christ Jesus in the 1st century.  Truly, Christ Jesus said to sell all of our possessions and give money earned there to the poor and then follow Him.  This is the teaching that we have to follow in order to survive this century and reach the 22nd century.  We have to sell out Satan to avoid the fate of falling into the hells.       

Americans are shooting their neighbors; Russians are invading Ukraine; China is cruelly suppressing democratic partisans; and many other people in the world are also facing political, social, economic, and various other hardships arising from influences of Satan.        

We have to accept poverty and abandon our desire as much as possible to cut ties with Satan, so that we can survive tragic events in this century.  And, we have to pray to the God, Christ Jesus, the Holy Mother, and other sacred deities that they shall protect us from the coming tragedies...

Matthew 5, King James Version
9 Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.
10 Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
11 Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
12 Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.
13 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

"when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in" - Soft and Valuable Clothing in this World to Turn to Rags in the Afterlife

 

Mt. Fuji

Soft and Valuable Clothing in this World to Turn to Rags in the Afterlife

The poorer a man is, the more he is blessed in the spirit world after death in this world, according to the Gospels.  Therefore, Christ Jesus never  praises kings, etc. in this world:

(Matthew 11, King James Version)
6 And blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me.
7 And as they departed, Jesus began to say unto the multitudes concerning John, What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind?
8 But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? behold, they that wear soft clothing are in kings' houses.
9 But what went ye out for to see? A prophet? yea, I say unto you, and more than a prophet.
10 For this is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.
11 Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.

Indeed, the value system in the afterlife is opposite to that in this world.  The poorer a man is in this world, the higher he is appreciated in Heaven.  And the best man in terms of poverty and faith in this world, namely the poorest man with the highest faith in this world, is still the least man in terms of love and faith in Heaven.  You have to be poor as much as possible as a man in the wilderness in order to be accepted in Heaven after death in this world and be appraised as high as possible.

In other words, kings, etc. in this world or in any fields cannot be accepted in Heaven.  But, the king of the poor in this world, if there is such a man, can be surely accepted in Heaven after his death; yet, he is the smallest among angels and other sacred spirits in Heaven.

Rich men and elites in this world cannot be accepted in Heaven, which is the core of Jesus' teachings.  Truly, they acquire and keep their wealth and social positions even if they have to sell their souls to Satan and devils so as to secure their wealth and status.  It is apparent that they do not love their poor neighbors and the God who loves the poor, while Christ Jesus told to love the God and poor neighbors with the utmost energy.

Indeed, poor men can know how evil it is to be rich and successful in this world.  They can see that the rich and elites follow Satan and devils and revere Satan as a god, so that they attack those who do not respect and follow Satan as enemies of their god, namely Satan.  Indeed, Satan (whose another form is money) is the god for the rich and elites; and thus their value system is opposite to that in Heaven.  It is natural that they cannot be accepted in Heaven after death in this world.

So, according to reports of Swedenborg and others who have observed the afterlife or the spirit world, the rich and elites after their death in this world are in the hells, still fighting one anther to suppress and dominate others in very ugly ways and manner.  Their clothes are all shattered all in rags and to tatters.  And the most violent and wicked one dominates others, while he is ruled by Satan.

However, the poor who loved the God and poor neighbors while living in the human world are accepted in Heaven and treated well by angels so as to live happy forever.  This is what Christ Jesus told.  All you have to do is to believe His teaching and live and act accordingly.

Soft and valuable clothing in this world will turn to rags in the afterlife.

Acts 5, King James Version
3 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.
5 And Ananias hearing these words fell down, and gave up the ghost: and great fear came on all them that heard these things.
6 And the young men arose, wound him up, and carried him out, and buried him.
7 And it was about the space of three hours after, when his wife, not knowing what was done, came in.
8 And Peter answered unto her, Tell me whether ye sold the land for so much? And she said, Yea, for so much.
9 Then Peter said unto her, How is it that ye have agreed together to tempt the Spirit of the Lord? behold, the feet of them which have buried thy husband are at the door, and shall carry thee out.
10 Then fell she down straightway at his feet, and yielded up the ghost: and the young men came in, and found her dead, and, carrying her forth, buried her by her husband.
11 And great fear came upon all the church, and upon as many as heard these things.
