Matthew 7 — Judge Not, False Prophets, and the Foundation of Truth

Matthew 7:1–6 — Judge Not, the Log in the Eye, and the Book with Seven Seals

1 Judge not, that you be not judged.
2 For with the judgment you pronounce you will be judged, and with the measure you use it will be measured to you.
3 Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?
4 Or how can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when there is the log in your own eye?
5 You hypocrite, first take the log out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye.
6 “Do not give dogs what is holy, and do not throw your pearls before pigs, lest they trample them underfoot and turn to attack you. ^*

This is an excellent covenant from the righteous Jesus, especially useful for the servants of religion.

If you offer the servants of religion this Book — the Book mentioned in the Bible as the Book with Seven Seals — they will often not even look into it. They may even drive you out of the church, frighten you with a call to the police, and call you a heretic or a godless person.

In other words, they would rather remain with the “log” in their own eye than dare to examine the message in which the words are heard: “Here is a message from Above.”

They have acted this way for years after the opening of the Book of God.

Yet many of them, and many politicians as well, will awaken, because the new frequencies are cleansing their subconscious too.

Matthew 7:7–12 — Ask, Seek, Knock, and the Gift of the Creator

7 “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.
8 For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.
9 Or which one of you, if his son asks him for bread, will give him a stone?
10 Or if he asks for a fish, will give him a serpent?
11 If you then, who are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him!
12 “So whatever you wish that others would do to you, do also to them, for this is the Law and the Prophets.

These are excellent words from the righteous Jesus.

By these words, he meant that a person should ask, seek, and knock in the search for answers on the path to God. True knowledge is opened to such people. Answers come to those who have grown to the level of their questions.

It is wiser to accept the manifested Gift of the Creator before the controlled media and the servants of religion recognize it. Otherwise, you will wonder whether you accepted the message from the Almighty by yourself, or only after it was handed to you by the great television screen.

Do not make a mistake in this time of the last chance, as people have done for centuries by shielding their reason with idols who distort sacred writings.

Matthew 7:13–14 — The Narrow Gate and the Growth of the Soul

13 Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many.
14 For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few.

Of course, each of you understands that through these words Jesus spoke about the difficult path to the growth of the soul and the easy path to the fall of the soul.

Matthew 7:15–23 — False Prophets Known by Their Fruits

15 Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.
16 You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?
17 So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit.
18 A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit.
19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
20 Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.
21 “Not everyone who says to me, “Lord, Lord,” will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
22 On that day many will say to me, “Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?”
23 And then will I declare to them, “I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.

These words were excellently spoken by Jesus. They apply to the servants of religion and to politicians of all countries more than to anyone else.

Through their godlessness and through the absence of spiritual deeds from them, the world has come closer to the abyss. Yet the level of authority and the level of the servants of religion come from the level of society itself.

Matthew 7:24–29 — The Foundation of Truth and the Mission of Jesus

24 “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
25 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock.
26 And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.
27 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it.”
28 And when Jesus finished these sayings, the crowds were astonished at his teaching,
29 for he was teaching them as one who had authority, and not as their scribes.

Jesus did not possess earthly authority, and he did not come to rule.

He had a command from God to help the world: to return from religions to the teaching from Above. No earthly authority can be compared with the command given to Jesus.

He fulfilled the command of the Almighty to cleanse the teaching of the One from the lies of distortion, so that people could overcome division and hostility among themselves. But the world did not fulfill the covenants given through Jesus and through the Messengers sent to different peoples.

Instead, people continue to believe false prophets who speak from emptiness, without clear proof from God that they have the right to transmit from God.

And the world continues to obey those who divide peoples for the benefit of thieves and tyrants, moving toward the abyss.

Conclusion — Matthew 7, Judgment, False Prophets, and the Foundation of Truth

Matthew 7 is read here as a chapter about judgment, the search for answers, the difficult path of the soul’s growth, false prophets, and the foundation of truth.

The words about the log in one’s own eye apply especially to those who claim spiritual authority but refuse to examine the Book with Seven Seals and the message from above.

The call to ask, seek, and knock is not passive waiting. It is the search for answers on the path to God. True knowledge is opened to those who have grown to the level of their questions.

The narrow gate points to the difficult path of the soul’s growth, while the wide road points to the easier path of decline.

The warning about false prophets applies not only to religious figures, but also to politicians and all those who speak without proof from God, divide peoples, and lead the world toward the abyss.

Jesus did not come to rule with earthly authority. He came with a command from God: to help the world return from religions to the teaching from above and to cleanse the teaching of the One from the lies of distortion.

The true foundation is not empty speech, titles, or outward authority. The true foundation is the teaching from Above, conscience, and the fulfillment of the will of the Almighty.
