GRM 67.3

The Gospel as revealed to me

Quotation

Love. I say nothing else. Love your neighbour as the Lord God of Israel prescribes. Do not always be of Cain’s blood. And why are you so? For the sake of a few coins, you who might have become murderers. For a few palms of land. For a better position. For a woman. What are such things? Are they eternal? No. They last less than a lifetime, which lasts an instant of eternity. And what do you lose if you follow them? The eternal peace promised to the just, and which the Messiah will bring you together with His Kingdom. Come on to the way of Truth. Follow the Voice of God. Love one another. Be honest. Be moderate. Be humble and fair. Go and meditate.

GRM 128

The Gospel as revealed to me

Detail

A man with leprosy (adolescent) presents himself to Jesus. He has committed adultery with a beautiful woman. The leprosy has just appeared and he is about to be condemned. He begs for God's mercy, but is not truly repentant. Jesus achieves physical healing, not because of the young man, but because of his mother. Then he makes a speech about not coveting another's wife.
