055a - Some considerations on three letters of St. Paul, to the Corinthians, to the Philippians ones and to the Galatians
1. Some considerations on three letters of St. Paul: to the Corinthians, to the Philippians
ones and to the Galatians
Someone among you will ask himself/herself because I never mention the letters of St. Paul in
the pieces of writings of the Ordine Gesù Redentore (Jesus Redeemer Order). So much glorified
by the Roman Catholic Church to acquire believers; I don't mention them because I don't agree on
all especially on the facilitations of which the Christians would enjoy.
On the letters of St. Paul, I will express opinions on three letters only on the parts that will seem
me less reliable and more important trying not to repeat the same matters after I have already
examined them as, for instance, the justification through the faith in Jesus:
a. First letter to the Corinthians, § 15 The dead will rise again; All will receive the life in Christ;
two complementary matters; All we will be transformed; Where is o death your victory? On
the base of the Divine Revelations of the XIX and XX century that I have quoted already I
can say that for me on aforesaid themes St. Paul didn't have clear ideas because it is very
difficult - if not impossible - to speak of the Life after Death if we have not been before this
life saints and as saints we speak; therefore also St. Paul - as anybody else man - it was
subject to the law of the oblivion 1
; after died the Church elected San Paul to the glory of
the altars, but to be holy in the Life after Death is another thing. It is almost impossible to
speak of God’s things, of the Spirit, of the life, of the man’s nature and life, of the Life after
Death, of the religions, of the evolution, of the karma, of the reincarnation, of the Cosmos
and of similar subjects if you don’t have, as me, the divine Revelations of the XIX and XX
century. St. Paul could not have them because he was born twenty centuries before;
b. Letter to the Philippians, § 3, verse 20: Also the this case St. Paul didn't have clear ideas;
as a matter of fact Jesus won't transfigure our physical body, on the contrary He will widen
our Conscience 2
, that is our second immortal body 3
; the first one is the Divine Spark 4
, a
virtual cell of God’s Spirit 5
that animates the man 6
in the four floors or worlds of the
Cosmos (physical - this universe with the Earth - astral, mental and akasico or of the
conscience 7
). The title of the verses 8-9, " All of this that is human is Christian" it doesn't
correspond to what there is written in such verses and I don’t share it, but I don't believe
that this is a demerit of St. Paul;
c. Letter to the Galatians, § 2 : The Salvation by means of the faith, justified by the faith in
Christ, verses 15-21: in this case St. Paul didn't have not the clear ideas only, but also
wrong opinions because the Christian that doesn't hock him/her to improve himself/herself "

2. to establish in his/her world, and from this to the world of the others, the order, the justice
and the rectitude: this and enough. He/She must not expect him/her for some form of
reward, neither spiritual neither material. And the person who with will seeks the liberation
(note of mine: that is the salvation), he/she will certainly be helped 8
; therefore, in my
opinion, we will not have any advantage from the being Christian of name, but not in
actual fact. Truly the verses 15-16 of the Letter to the Galatians, to start from the title, they
are substantially mistaken because salvation is not gotten by means of the faith in Christ;
as a matter of fact the man saves him/her only if he/she lives observing the Decalogue and
the Commandments of the love, that is evangelically, as Jesus Christ taught 9
. In my
opinion it is not even true that from the works of the law nobody will be justified because the
person who the Decalogue observes it is easier that he/she makes good actions and it is on
these that Jesus judges us 10
. In the verses 15-21 St. Paul also used improper terms that
confuse the ideas of the believers (justification or justified instead that pardon or forgiven
and works instead that actions; the man can complete works also, but it is more difficult
than this happens because the work has ample and generic value and is not an occasional
action as to satiate a hungry one, quenched the thirst to who is thirsty, dressed a naked
person, consoled a prisoner 11
but it is a' "Activity put in to be with a precise intent,
addressed to a determined aim or fit to produce certain effects 12
. As it regards the actions
God has told Eileen Caddy of the Community of Findhorn in Scotland:”… the words without
the actions they are nothing. Live My word 13
". As it regards the law I think that St. Paul
refers to the Decalogue 14
, but if he had referred to the whole Pentateuch it would change a
little because the >Commandment of the Decalogue and the two Commandments of the
love they are the foundations of all the Old Testament. The Decalogue is the doctrine and
the model of behaviour for all men; the Lord Jesus said: << …You see that what I say it is
still Decalogue. It is always Decalogue the word of the Rabbi (Teacher). Because the good
the justice, the glory is in to complete what the Decalogue it teaches and it orders to do.
There is no other doctrine. Then given among the lightnings of the Sinai, given now among
the splendours of the Mercy, but the Doctrine is that. And it doesn't change and it cannot
change…. The Savior has not come to put a new law, but to confirm again the first one, the
sole law … 15
.
With the above mentioned improper terms of which I spoke before ( verses §2,15-21) the
whole aforesaid passage assumes a misleading meaning and the sentences they don't

3. result clear, but let me proceed with order: St. Paul begins making to believe that the Jews
are not sinners; instead, all of us we know that men are all sinners because in them the
demons are embodied because God wants to save them by means the life that He
conceived and realized and that we know well and by means of the man 16
. In the verse 16
St. Paul uses the term "justified" by God to the place of "forgiven"; as a Matter of fact St.
Paul says " (.) knowing nevertheless that the man is not justified from the works of the law,
but only by means of the faith in Jesus Christ, we have also believed in Jesus Christ to be
justified from the faith in Christ and not from the works of the law." If St. Paul believed in
Jesus Christ to be justified, that is forgiven he had a selfish purpose; in Jesus Christ we
must believe for what He teaches us in the Gospels and for the sacrifice of His life for the
remission of the sins. In my opinion the works of the law are not those which St. Paul
alludes but the good behaviours; the law of which St. Paolo speaks for me it is the
Decalogue even if he didn't tell it, but as I said before the eternal law of the Sinai it is one of
the foundations of the whole Old Testament together with the Commandments of the love.
The faith in Jesus Christ doesn't save men; the Salvation of the man happens for the
love that God and Jesus have for us, but also for our way of living observing the
commandments of Jesus Christ 17
. To believe in Jesus Christ to be justified that is
forgiven by the faith in Him is a egoist choice and therefore we won't certainly be forgiven
for this motive, but because, fundamental fact, God forgives us (note of mine: in Jesus
Christ’ person) only because He loves us. St. Paul also said that the man is not justified
from the works of the law. And which would be the works of the law be? St. Paul doesn't
explain them, but the work and the purposes of the law are, in my opinion, different entirely
from those which St. Paul alludes; as a matter of fact the work of the Law, that is of the
Decalogue, it is grandiose, that is of cosmic importance: it concerns the education of
all men - demons in the centuries of the centuries. For justified it must be intended
forgiven, but we are forgiven only because God and Jesus love us, but, in any case, the
man must always make his/her part that it consists in the way of living evangelically
because the judgment of Jesus doesn't found it on our sins, but on our good actions
18
and therefore from the observance of the law, that is of the Decalogue and possibly from
the observance of the two Commandments of the love 19
if we want to become holy.
Therefore for me it is clear that there is no Salvation for the faith in Christ, that is to be
Christian, without appointment in to improve ourselves and therefore without worth through
the only faith in Jesus Christ; this also because God and Jesus are love 20
and therefore
they don't do partialities among persons belonging to different religions because to their

and they love us all in the same manner and all us will be
judged, life after life on the base of our good actions. Before the Decalogue the ancient
Jews lived without rules as they liked and therefore they behaved badly because they
were dominated by their selfish nature of the man-demon (vices, defects and poverties and
by passions that derive from them) ; therefore God to educate them wrote the
Decalogue on two tablets of stone and He gave them to Mosè 22
. In my opinion also for
the law St. Paul had wrong opinions; as a matter of fact without the law, the Decalogue
there would not have been that is the progress that then it has been in the behaviours of the
men that from selfish, bad and egocentric persons they have already become unselfish,
good persons and Christ centric ones (millions of people. And if it is true that such
behaviours they have become sins only after the promulgation of the Decalogue, the
eternal law of the Sinai, that of St. Paul is entirely a marginal statement of fact without
importance. The works of the law, that is the good actions of men are the consequence of
the coming into force of the aforesaid law; therefore they are a precious fruit for the
Salvation of the men - demons. Returning to the term "justification" used by St. Paul;
this term confuses the ideas of the believers because God forgives, He doesn't justify.
Christ, the Divine Presence in the man contributes to save all men, also those of other
religions provided that they make their part to improve himself/herself because God helps
men that help themselves 23
. The disembodied Teachers of the Cerchio Firenze 77
(Circle Florence 77) have told the XX century that " Everybody he/she makes studious of
himself/herself, he/she makes author of a new society starting from his/her life of every day.
You are responsible of what happens in the world in the measure in which nothing you do
to improve yourselves, it is not necessary to be of the saints, of the teachers, of the
leaders: it needs instead to be of the humble workers of itselves. Of the unities of a
humanity that they singly work - to start from the part more hurt able, more attachable, from
itselves - to improve the world 129g and 170g 24
. I don't agree even on the verses 17-20;
particularly on the affirmation that Christ lives in Paul because everybody of us, to whatever
religion belongs it belongs is a part of the Conscience of Christ 25
the Divine Presence of
the man 26
; Christ doesn't live within us, but He is present in every man. The verse 19
is wrong because we doesn't live in God for choice, but because God is also in each one of
us 27
because He is the Whole that everything and all men include since He is the
Absolute One 28
. Also the verse 20 are wrong: as a matter of fact Christ doesn't live in St.

5. Paul or in any other man, but it is present in St. Paul as in any other man, also the worse
one He loves us all alike 29
. Christ does not love St. Paul only and He has not given His life
for him only, but for all men of any époque. The pardon, not the justification, comes
from God 30
not from the law and Christ it is not dead in vain in any case. Verse 21 always
of the paragraph 2 of the letter to the Galatians :nobody can annul the God’s Grace, pardon
comes from the love of God and the Christ because They are love 31
; in every case Christ
is not dead in vain, in this connection it has been said: "Christ will rise in the intimate of
every man, belongs to the one or to the other religion to the one or to the other political
faith. The man calls Christian when he/she loves the his/her neighbour. To believe to
change the man bathing him/her or circumcising him/her is equal to believe to be able to
change him/her changing him/her the suit. But the work of the Christ is not bankrupt. Christ
- the Charity, the brotherly Love - it will rise in the intimate of every man and not for
recognition of an any religious organization that it was named or not named after His name.
32
". Conclusions: St. Paul among wrong concepts, unsatisfactory explanations, improper
terms and wrong or intricate opinions gives of the faith and of how we must be Christians a
distorted representation you/he/she must be been Christian. In my opinion these verses
are all to ignore also because they make to believe to the Christians that they will be saved
independently from how they behave in the life. As a matter of fact Jesus said << ….This is
my commandment: love you the one the others as me I have loved you. Nobody has a
greater love of this: to give the life for his/her own friends. You are my friends if you will do
what I command you … 33
>> . And Our Lady Mary has told at Medjugorje: <<"Convert
yourselves, pray, fast, reconcile yourselves." You have superficially taken these messages.
You have begun to live them for them, however to leave them because it was difficult. No
dear children! When something is good, it is necessary to persevere in the good and not to
think: "God doesn't see me, He doesn't listen to me, He doesn't help me". This way you
have moved away from God and from me for yours miserable interest. I desired to do of
you an oasis of peace, of love and of goodness. God desired that you with your love and
with His help made miracles and you set the example; therefore here what I tell you: Satan
he makes fun of you and of your souls and I cannot help you because you are distant from
my heart. Therefore pray and live my messages and so you will see the miracles of the love
of God in your daily life. Thank you for having answered to my call>>. As you see, in God
there is not any favouritism even for the Christians

choice to be done between the faith and the law because the base of the faith they are the

, the eternal law of the Sinai and the Commandments of the
love 35
. God blesses all and everybody, He doesn't curse nothing and nobody; every time
that in the Old Testament there is written of curses there consider it work of the Hebrews,
that is of the man;
Paragraph 3 of the letter to Galatians, verses 23-29: I don't agree even that we become
God’s sons through the faith in Jesus Cristo only because God is love as I have said and
shown above; therefore all men are God’s sons independently from the peoples and from
the religions. And Christ is present in all men 36
;
Paragraph 4 of the letter to the Galatians: I don't agree even that God sent His son Jesus
because we received the adoption to sons, ; as a matter of fact the Christians were already
give birth as all the other men, they are children, stings and enough! And God knows one
for one all Your his/her children since the antiquity because " (.) it has us in Itself, even if it
is not a person it knows us (.) 37
Also on the inheritance they don't agree; heirs of what ?
Paragraph 4 verses 21-31: neither I agree about the two alliances with Sarah and Agar; in
my opinion the alliance with God is always that ancient with all men that it was confirmed by
the Lord Jesus . God doesn't divide the humanity in two parts; for God all we are sons both
the good person and the bad ones; God said only: the son of Agar, Ishmael, will be as an
a wild donkey, his hand will be against everybody and the hand of all against him. The
descendants of Ishmael are the Arabs of the desert 38
, but all are part of the same family
but they form the two descents, that of Sarah and of Agar, but the family is one 39
.
And here I stop because if I had to examine all letters of St. Paul I should write a book and
perhaps, I would not have anymore time, because I am already eighty five years old.
