The Holy Guest says (from March 7th, the Holy Spirit wants me to call Him as such),
«In the last lesson for you men, and especially men in charge of teaching the Truth and that of the knowledge of the essence of God, that is, of Love without which in terms of the heart, you are not His children, I have spoken of true knowledge and of untrue knowledge, not completely true because it moves freely in the regions of human knowledge. True knowledge surpasses these lower, poorer, narrower and relative regions, and it hurls itself, an ardent golden arrow, beyond what is humanity, towards the eternal Truths that are true knowledge, or using a more precise term, true Wisdom.
True wisdom is found in the luminous and ardent centre which is Love. It is not in knowing many human works, and above all, it is not in discussing pedantic, scribal theological disputes at length that true wisdom is acquired, that is, the true knowledge of what God is, of what God wants and of what one must do in order to possess God for eternity, but it is in loving much.
He who loves perfectly, perfectly in the relativity of man - but it is to love perfectly if you love with all your strength - infuses the perfection not only in his spirit, but also in his intellect.
Because intelligence illuminated by love is perfect intelligence. And perfect intelligence is superhuman intelligence, that is, intelligence wise of that true knowledge that had no need for books and studies to be in man, of that true knowledge which Adam and Eve had infused in them, proportioned to their condition, in the blessed dawn, pure, perfect, in the first days of Humanity, of that true knowledge which God directly infused into the creature made in His image and likeness. And a fact of this divine image and likeness is this knowledge of the eternal Truth which God possesses without measure and that man should have possessed in the measure sufficient for him and which should have guided him in all his works and relationships made out of love for God, for his neighbour and for lower creatures.
I, Love and Wisdom, say to you, less science and more love, and you will possess Wisdom.
Wanting to explain the mystery of God and the marvellous processes of Creation, of evolution, and of the transformation of created things with human science is a foolishness which degenerates later into heresy. One cannot explain the origin of the finite other than by contemplating it with love, that is, with faith - since faith is never separated from love - the Infinite.
Faith illuminates science and helps it to understand. It is like maternal milk that turns the infant into an always more formed human being. But like a new-born could never sustain and nourish the mother and not even an adult, so too, science cannot nourish and help faith. Because faith is religion; and religion permits the creature, intelligent but limited, to understand the superintelligible and the infinite.
And if science is sufficient in order to understand finite knowledge, wisdom - that is, faith and love - is indispensable in order to know sublime truths. In believing, there is light. In analyzing in order to understand, dispute and accept the mystery, because it is investigated in the same way a doctor or lawyer would investigate a physical illness or a moral lesion, is to create darkness and coldness.
Faith is not contrary to science. Rather, human science finds in religion the help in explaining itself and achieving discoveries and the laws of Creation. But whereas human science without the help of religion is destined to inevitably fall into error, religion, even without the help of science, guides to the Truth and knowledge of essential truths.
And when afterwards the natural laws and the natural facts are not the only things investigated with human science but they wish to explain and investigate the supernatural mysteries - God, who is always a mystery to man - then more than to error, this is met with denial.
Reason, this great thing that distinguishes man from brutes, is great if it is compared to instinct, the sole light of the lower beings; however, it is a small, small, small thing if it is put to the test in the investigation of what God is. And reason, if it is humble, falls down in respect before the incomprehensible, infinite God, crying, "I believe! In order to understand You, I believe, and the faith in your Revelation is my light, it is my food in order to 'live'. To live of You, in You, with You, in order to know You as the just will know You, living in Your celestial Kingdom."
Neither idealism nor positivism explain God, Creation, and the second life, nor are they useful in reading the answers to scientific questions written in human bodies, on the pages of the firmaments and in the terrestrial atmospheres. They do not explain God, Creation, the second life, nor pride of the mind that on its own wants to understand what is superior to human reason, nor ignorance or semiignorance that considers knowing and being able to judge what, without My light, they cannot judge and know, so that not even those who are called doctors in religion will be able to judge justly.
However, love explains everything. Because it is a link to God and places God in you, Guest and Master. For this reason, the saying "true theologians are those who are guided by the Holy Spirit, that is by Love, is a just truth."»
III. Notebook of the Lessons of the Sweet Guest on the Pauline Epistles. I was made to copy them down again, with additions which complete it, in July, 1950. For this reason, this is not to be copied, but the other one that bears the No. III of the notebooks of the Lessons of the Sweet Host on the Pauline Epistles.
Here we continue the lessons on the Epistle to the Romans. The other lessons are in the two notebooks given to R. F. Corrado M. Berti who considered it opportune to withdraw them even though the last one has not yet been finished, just as the comment of the Holy Spirit on the Epistle to the Romans is still a long way off from being finished.
However, for all that I owe in respect and recognition, and acknowledgment above all, to Father Corrado on how he has always acted out of love and with patience and obedience towards a poor creature like me and towards the wishes of the Lord, I have adhered to consign everything that I have to him. To one who has done much for the Work, it is right that much should be given.
Father Migliorini, he, too, has done a lot... It would be enough just to think of how much he has typed! But... Everything has its "but".
And the Work has this "but": however, if there had not been Father Berti, it was certain that, on account of the behaviour of everyone - or at least everyone except for a few true exceptions in the crowd of the F. S. of M. (Fathers of the Servants of Mary) who have always opposed, criticized and afflicted out of all proportion, and only since a short time have they changed their ways and thoughts towards the Work of Jesus and the poor instrument of Jesus - the Work would have ended up not going to the 0. S. of M. (Order of the Servants of Mary).
However, sweetness, sincerity, and honesty disarm. Yes. They disarm God and the instrument of God who must tenaciously defend the interests and wishes of God, even if this costs Him much because it is not pleasing to dispute, reproach and threaten with chastisements.
I do not know how much longer I shall remain on Earth, nor if I will be given the opportunity to see the Work printed. However, I insist on stating that if the Work will give light and good to souls, and lustre to the 0. S. of M., souls and S. of M. (Servants of Mary) must be grateful to both Father Berti and Father Migliorini who in different ways but with sole constancy have worked so that the divine Will be accomplished and so that souls would have the gift from God.
And I would like, after these two prime constant workers of God, to remember the few others who co-operated, with love, to give comfort to the instrument and help to the two principal architects of the triumph of the Will of God and of His Word: Rev. Father Gargiani, Father Sostegno Benedetti, Father Tozzi and Father Mariano De Santis.
