CHAPTER 91.
Project Gutenberg EPUB edition
Levi
40 Because I have the power to do these things is nothing strange. All men may gain the power to do these things; but they must conquer all the passions of the lower self; and they can conquer if they will.
41 So man is God on earth, and he who honors God must honor man; for God and man are one, as father and the child are one.
42 Behold, I say, The hour has come; the dead will hear the voice of man, and live, because the son of man is son of God.
43 You men of Israel, hear! you live in death; you are locked up within the tomb.
44 (There is no deeper death than ignorance and unbelief.)
45 But all will some day hear the voice of God, made plain by voice of man, and live. You all will know that you are sons of God, and by the sacred Word, may do the works of God.
46 When you have come to life, that is, have come to realize that you are sons of God, you who have lived the life of right, will open up your eyes on fields of life.
47 But you who love the ways of sin will, in this resurrection, stand before a judgment bar, and be condemned to pay the debts you owe to men and to yourselves.
48 For whatsoever you have done amiss must be performed again, and yet again, until you reach the stature of the perfect man.
49 But in due time the lowest and the highest will arise to walk in light.
50 Shall I accuse you unto God? No, for your prophet, Moses, has done that; and if you hear not Moses’ words you will not hearken unto me, for Moses wrote of me.
