Chapter 139:
Slaughter Hath No Merit
<< Previous | Home | Next >>
1. YE HAVE heard it said of me that I came to the world to bring not peace but a sword.
2. Verily that abomination hath wrought much havoc.
3. Had I come to bring a sword, would I not have brought it? Had I come to work wars and carnage, would I not have wrought them?
4. Nay, my beloved, I came to offer peace of purest quality, untouched by bitterness, strife, or malice. I came unto all men saying, Make those who hate you, love you; do good unto those who defile you; minister unto those who seek your ruin.
5. They come unto me saying, Master, let us slay these dullards who would have none of Thee.
6. Perceive ye not, my beloved, that slaughter hath no merit? for what doth it? lo, it releaseth the spirit to enter realms not of flesh, it worketh no punishment, it worketh release whereat no good cometh;
7. It releaseth the spirit mischievously, teaching it no lessons, disturbing balances in karma making men to dread their own forces in that they do perform such cruelties.
8. Mischief, all of it!
9. I say it is mischief born of perversion and idiocy, having no substance in cosmic righteousness, making hearts to suffer that have not bargained for such suffering;
10. I tell you, I abominate it. I say, we cast it out; we say unto it, Get hence, thou mischief incarnate!
11. This then cometh; in this life happeneth this miracle:
12. The days of waiting for peace are passed. Man hath transgressed until that which he hath created hath persuaded and controlled him as a monster;
13. Divine action only can mediate between eternal carnage and eternal guilt of arms that are militant; divine intervention only can say unto the nations,
14. Make no mock of Him who could destroy you at His gesture, open your hearts and your heads to His teaching, hear His servants else ye perish! These things are Truth. Let them encompass you else your destruction cometh with a swiftness!
15. They say in turn, Show us a sign that this is the truth.
16. We say unto them, Lo, the sign is He who speaketh this message unto your ears; know ye that which cometh!
