There is an eternal path of life and an eternal path of death in front of people. Each human being, without exception, is walking on either one of the two paths. You may think that you have a lot of time, living in this world. But because you do not spend much time in walking with me for the sake of your spirit, even though you have a lot of time in your life, the period of time you [actually] live for ‘righteousness’ is short. Even if you believe in me, the Holy Son, and live your life, loving me; because each of you sustain your life limited by the physical elements in reality, as you spend time on those physical things, you are unable to live for your spirit properly.
As a result, your spirit is not as mature as you might expect; and differently from what you think, only a small number of people are living at the level that I desire. In the broad world, there are so many people who keep going toward the domain of death without knowing the fact. Who will wake them up and have them come to me? Let us pull them out together. All you have to do is be my body. If you turn around those who are heading for death, the multitude of your sins will be covered, and both of your body and spirit will prosper also. Therefore, let us press on working hard.
Even if you believe in me, the Holy Son, and you are on the path of eternal life, you need to deeply discuss with me through prayer about all things of your daily life, whatever it may be. But you just do things without checking with me, thinking, ‘I live my life with faith in the Lord, so it will go well.’ Consequently, you are harmed in so many occasions. There is always a path already set for success and a path set for failure for each of the various things various things you are about to do in reality, whether small or big. There is a path of fortune and a path of misfortune.
Some of the paths may seem good to your eyes and sound good to your ears, but they are wrong paths which are destined to be become more rugged along the way. These are the paths that you must not take. These are the things that you must not do. Therefore, I tell you to choose a path knowingly and do things knowingly. Having saved you, I, the omniscient and omnipotent me, the Holy Son, wish you to prosper. Then will I not tell you what I know if you pray to me and plead with me? But most of you just walk a path that is already set to fail without asking me and confirming with me.
For this reason, even though you toil, work hard, and spend your money, you are only harmed in the end. When you walk on a path that will certainly fail, will it go well just because you work hard and put effort into it? People always think only about being successful, and they believe things will work out as long as they try. With that, they walk on a path that eventually leads to death. So the further they go on this path, the more harm they will suffer. They will face limitations and just plop down in the end.
Commonly, people think, ‘This is my fate,’ while walking the path that is set for death. The path itself is destined path of death, and they themselves chose to walk on that road.
But then, they lament saying that it is their destiny! Realize this fact. Will you prosper, thrive or become successful from investing in Hell and working hard for it? There is a path of life and a path of death before you. Do not try to fix that wrong path that has already been predestined and set for death as you walk on it. Instead, learn from me, ask me, know correctly, and walk on the path that has been already set for life, a good path, a path of life. This is what I urge you to do.
It is the same with the course of your future life, also. It is one of the two paths. One is a path that certainly leads to death and failure, and the other is a path that leads to life and success. Even if it may take more time/(Even if it might delay time), first pray, ask, and then set off doing things. Because you just do things without praying and asking about them, even though you are a person loving me, and walking on my path of life, you walk on a path of woes without knowing, and you face problems and woes down the road.
It will be futile no matter how much you struggle and call upon me to become successful while walking the path of death, [which is] the path of failure. It will be useless because the path you are on is a path of death, a path of failure. You need to get out of that path and walk on my path of life, and do the deeds that will bring you prosperity.
[Suppose] there are two bowls. One is normal. Its condition is already determined. The other bowl is broken. Its condition is [also] already determined. If you pour water into the broken bowl, since it is the same broken bowl, your effort will be useless no matter how much water you put into it. The path of life is the same. I urge you to know this before walking [either path.] There are things that you can figure out on your own. However, there are also secret paths that you can come to know only if you learn from me and gain knowledge from me.
Everyone, reflect upon your life in the past. You will see that you have walked a path of pain, whether big or small. In some cases, you turned onto a path that would strip you of everything, so you lost everything before you realized about it and came out of that path.
In other cases, you turned onto a path that would bring all [good] things, so you became successful and prosperous, didn’t you? I tell you that before you start doing things, you should know which one will be beneficial and favorable for you. I walk only on the path of life. Believe this and take action only following me. Listen to my words and do everything, from small to big, with knowledge.
Once you turn onto the wrong path, the path of failure, it will impact your life so severely that your losses will be great. Recovery from the loss may be done through a long and hard period of time. This kind of harm makes a huge loss in your journey through the path of life as well as in your work for your spirit. If you had not walked on the wrong path but if you had worked hard, spent time, and invested in my path of life for your spirit’s sake, how much better [your situation] would have become and how much higher your level would have been. All of you intend to do well. But because you do things with physical thoughts in a physical way, you are unable to find the things that are profound and ideal.
Now, know [which are] the paths that ultimately lead to death and failure, and avoid those ways that are set [for death and failure]. I bless that you will be filled with knowledge and insight through my Word of life and that you will choose and walk on the eternal path where you will absolutely prosper, receive blessings, and see all your hard work become fruitful.
