Excerpts from the original source text regarding spiritual revelations and spirituality.
Teaching No. 1
1 In the beginning of time, I, as the Father, inspired in man the practice of righteousness. However, men departed from the Divine mandates, falling into idolatry and abominable acts before Me. The strong triumphed, the weak perished and man took woman as a slave. It was necessary to convey to Moses the Commandments of the Law on Mount Sinai. In that Law were also the rules and precepts by which the people of Israel should be guided, and in these they were told: He who kills, will have the same sentence pronounced upon himself. He who steals will make restitution to his brother. He who causes harm shall pay "an eye for eye and a tooth for a tooth".(Ex. 21:24/Lev. 24:20/Deut. 19:21)
34 You will see great spiritual events take place before your eyes, many of which will surprise you, but I will enlighten you with My lessons so that you will never be confused. Study My word, for it will inspire love toward your Father and your brethren. It is not necessary for you to belong to the 144,000 to be able to serve the Father or be named disciples of the Master. Those who form a part of this number, are just the ones who will open the way and be as guardians of My Work of spirituality.
66 The light of My word will unite all men during this Third Era. My truth will enlighten every mind, thus eliminating differences in creeds and forms of worship.
67 Today, while many love Me in Jehovah but do not acknowledge Christ, others love Me in Christ, ignoring Jehovah; while some recognize My existence as the Holy Spirit, others debate and divide themselves because of My Trinity.
68 Now then, I ask this humanity and those who guide it spiritually: Why do you drift away from one another, when everyone recognizes the same true God? Spirituality & enlightenment for the spirit of man
If you love Me in Jehovah, you are within the truth. If you love Me through Christ, He is the Way, the Truth and the Life (John 14:6). If you love Me as the Holy Spirit, you approach the enlightenment. You have only one God, only one Father. There are not three Divine persons who exist in God, but only one Divine Spirit, who has manifested Himself in three different phases to mankind which, in its smallness, while penetrating the profound believed to have seen three persons when only one Spirit exists.
Therefore, when you hear the name of Jehovah, think of God as the Father and as Judge. When you think of Christ, think of Him as the Master, as Love, and when you try to comprehend where the Holy Spirit originates, know that it is none other than God manifesting His infinite wisdom to those most advanced disciples.
69 If I had found humanity of ancient time spiritually evolved, like it is today, I would have manifested Myself before it as the Father, as the Master and as the Holy Spirit, then men would not have seen three Gods when only one exists. However, they were not capable of interpreting My lessons of spirituality and enlightenment, thus they would have confused themselves and taken another path and kept on creating accessible and insignificant gods according to their imagination.
73 If Christ is love, do you believe that He would be independent of Jehovah, if I am love? (1 John 4:16)
74 If the Holy Spirit is Wisdom, do you believe that Spirit to be independent of Christ when I am Wisdom? Do you believe that the Word and the Holy Spirit are different from one another?
75 It suffices to know something about the word which Jesus taught to mankind spirituality in order for you to understand enlightenment that only one God has existed and will be only one forever. That is why I said through Him: "He who knows the Son knows the Father, for He is in Me and I in Him." ( John 14:11) Then, announcing that in another time He would return among men, He not only said¨"I will return." but He also promised to send the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Consolation, the Spirit of Truth. (John 16:13)
76 Why should Christ come separately from the Holy Spirit? By chance, would He not have within His Spirit the truth, the enlightenment, the spirituality and consolation?
78 I am delivering My message of spirituality and enlightnement to all of you during these times, the message promised to mankind through the lips of Jesus when He was among men.
79 I know that in the beginning this Doctrine will be disdained for having been transmitted through humble and sinful people like My spokesmen, but the truth that this revelation of spirituality contains will prevail, and its teaching of enlightenment will be heard, for in its essence is present the Holy Spirit, the Comforter and the promised Truth. (John 16:7)
