Page 191. Jesus explains 'What is Greatness in the Eyes of God'
And I never spared a word, if it was to be said, capable of drawing upon Me the hatred of the Jews and the animosity of Judas. I knew, and I could have brought it about, that some money would be sufficient to subject him to Me.
Not to Me, a Redeemer: to Me, a rich man. I had multiplied the loaves of bread and if I wanted, I could
multiply also money. But I did not come to obtain human satisfactions to anybody. Least of all to the ones I had called. I had preached sacrifice, detachment, a pure life, humble positions. "What kind of a Master would I have been and what Just man, if I had given money to one of them for his mental and physical satisfaction, only because that was the means to keep him?
Those who make themselves "small" are great in My Kingdom. Those who wish to be "great" in the eyes of the world are not suitable to reign in My Kingdom. They are straw for the beds of the demons.
Because the greatness of the world is the antithesis of the Law of God. The world calls "great" those who, by means which almost always are illicit, know how to get the best positions and to do so, they use their neighbour as a stool on which they then climb, crushing him. The world calls "great" those who know how to kill in order to reign, and they kill materially or morally, and they usurp positions and countries and fatten themselves, bleeding both individuals and communities. The world often calls "great" criminals. No. "Greatness" is not to be found in criminality.
It is in goodness, in honesty, in love, in justice. You can see which poisonous fruit your "great ones" offer you, fruit which they have picked in the wicked devilish garden inside them!
