Places in The Gospel as it was revealed to me

The apostolic group advances over the Emmaus mountains. They move on merrily and are on their way to Galilee. Judas, in good spirits, asks if they can return to Kerioth later, and John asks if he can take James of Zebedee and Andrew to Bethlehem. The Iscariot then asks Jesus for advice about his soul, and Jesus does so charitably, saying that his mind is disordered and everything falls apart at the slightest sign of wind. He advises her to act with order and stay with the good ones to fight temptation. Peter arrives in the meantime and wants to know what they're talking about. Jesus speaks of order and holiness, evoking the image of the right on a plane. Peter praises André, but Jesus assures him that the Twelve are working to become good and better.

Cleophas of Emmaus, an old man who has come to Belle-Eau, welcomes Jesus into his home. He's an old man, but he's very willing. On this occasion, Jesus meets a certain Timon and Hermas, true Israelites who ask him to present his doctrine. Jesus replies that we must follow the Decalogue, and practice love and mercy. The Lord says that Mercy has now taken precedence over Justice, but he also points out that it was always present, from the Beginning. Now, it has come to reconcile man with his Father. Next, Cleophas presents a case of incest, which is being tried by the Pharisaic authorities. In this case, the case of incest is unfortunate: the brother and sister really didn't know they were from the same lineage. To follow the Law, the man repudiated her (with a broken heart) and the woman died of grief. Now the man, named Joseph, is condemned and ostracized from Israel. He's out. Jesus declares that this was materially an involuntary fault, but that there had been no will to sin. As soon as he learns that he is in the street, he goes out and lets him know that he is Mercy. He invites him to follow him and absolves him of his involuntary fault, he who is the spotless Lamb and divine Judge.

The apostolic group, accompanied by Joseph of Emmaus, who has been ostracized by Israel, heads for Arimathea. Joseph needs to be detoxified from the hatred he has received. So Jesus asks the apostles to be very careful about intransigence: in fact, he makes a fine speech about the lost soul returning to its Lord. Finally, he declares that he will give Isaac of Yutta to Joseph to help train him in his way.

Note:

• EMV 141 is the beginning of volume 3 of the old edition.
• It marks the beginning of the second year of Jesus' public life.

Title: On the road with the Twelve to Samaria

Date of vision: April 21, 1945

Calendar: Monday, January 3, 28

Location (map): Towards Samaria.

Cycle: End-of-year celebrations

Summary: The apostles discuss the fact that there are two groups: one belonging to Christ, the other to John the Baptist. They would like Jesus to be scandalized that he is cast out because of a false zeal for John. But Jesus says that the saints don't care if their disciples go from one to the other, from John to Jesus and vice versa. He also enjoins them not to ask God "why". Finally, Jesus speaks of baptism, and declares that soon Grace will be restored to mankind. They are now on the edge of Samaria. The Master asks his disciples if he would speak to the Samaritans, and of course they are indignant. But the Lord affirms that he will speak if asked.
