The Gospel as revealed to me

Detail

Jesus comes to Bethany. This is his first meeting with Lazarus. Lazarus soon confirms his faith in Christ, believing him to be the Messiah. A little later, the three men have a meal: Lazarus tells Simon that his house has been bought by someone anonymous (Matthew). The Zealot just wants his old servant to stay in his house, and the buyer has agreed. Lazarus then asks the Master whether he uses harsh words or words of mercy, and Jesus replies that he uses love. A brief mention of Olympus and the quicksand that bogs down the guilty, but a word of love can help them out. Lazarus then talks about his reading, as he reads Greek and Roman works to compare them with their Jewish books and see God's Doctrine in them. Jesus says there's no harm in reading his books, as long as the idea of God is not altered in him. He reminds us that every action is not sinful if we act holily.

Detail

Jesus is at the Gate of Pisces, where he is to meet Judas and the shepherds (Isaac, Levi, Joseph). He meets the soldier Alexander, who invites him to calm the Jews. Jesus makes a short speech to his brothers in the faith. Afterwards, he continues to talk with Alexander: among other things, they discuss the soul. Then Judas and the shepherds arrive. Annalia, who has been healed, also arrives to bless the Savior, and after saying a few words to her, the Lord lets her go. Finally, Judas speaks to her. He is discouraged, so Jesus encourages him and says that defeats are normal in the apostolate, but then everything turns into victory. Finally, he speaks to the Shepherds, and so it ends.
