My Friends, Brothers, and Sisters, on Earth and in Earth’s Heaven,

God Is Present!

Jesus Is Arriving!

Fraternal Greetings

1. It is with great pleasure that I address all of you who attentively honor me with your legionary enthusiasm, especially the dedicated directors and administrators of the Good Will Organizations gathered today at the Temple of Good Will’s Ecumenical Complex, in Brasília/DF, Brazil. May the Glorious Phalanx of Saint Francis of Assisi, Patron of the Divine LGW and Saint of Ecumenism, inspire you all as you undertake the magnificent mission of planning the blessed actions of our brave liberating Organizations, aiming for triumphant accomplishments in 2025. I extend my fraternal greetings to you through the esteemed Brother Silmar de Almeida, LGW’s Executive Director, who presides over this important Administrative Meeting.

Let Us Embody a New Heaven and a New Earth as Promised in the Apocalypse of Christ

Tela: Sátyro Marques (1935-2019)

2. I invite all those of Good Will, whether on Earth or in the Spiritual Homeland, to tune in to the same supreme vibration of the Christ of God, of our Spiritual Roadmap to triumph, which we will continue studying and putting into action in 2025.

3. As the celebrations of the Temple of Good Will’s anniversary (October 21, 1989) always mark the beginning of our Legionary New Year, today we embark on this successful journey on Earth and in Earth’s Heaven, drawing inspiration from chapter 21 of the Redeeming Apocalypse of Jesus.

4. How to overcome the world’s challenges in 2025?

5. To all who follow me in these Sacred Organizations and through the Good Will Media, I have just one assurance to convey: We will only triumph in 2025 and in the years to come if we are truly equipped with the strength and safety that come from the Divine Words of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Our unwavering Hope lies in the New Heaven and the New Earth, which the Ecumenical Christ announces to us in rich detail in the Book of Revelation.

6. My Sisters and Brothers, attract the powerful vibration from chapter 21 of the Apocalypse of Jesus. Read, study, discuss, and live by this glorious message that the Last Book of the Holy Bible presents to us. I have often preached and written about such majestic theme. In your lives both personally and collectively, be this New Heaven and this New Earth, blessed by God!

7. In the early hours of Monday, August 25, 1997, in Rio de Janeiro/RJ, Brazil, I wrote a circular letter entitled “The Message of the Empty Tomb,” in which I stated that the Ideal of Good Will shall always endure because it has its mystical body illuminated by an undeniable realistic nature that descends from God, just like the New Jerusalem, as it embodies within itself the New Heaven and the New Earth (Apocalypse 21:1-4).

“Jesus and the Seven Churches of Asia – Pergamum” (Third Volume of the Book Series)

8. Providentially, the Jesus, the Ecumenical Christ, the Divine Statesman, Academy presents now the third volume of the book series “Jesus and the Seven Churches of Asia,” which includes my impromptu preachings from several decades, along with articles and circular letters, aimed at unveiling to the Simple-Hearted the strong warning from Jesus to the members of the Church in Pergamum―a message that extends far beyond the early Christians of that community in Asia. I emphasize that the moral teachings in the Letters of Jesus to His Churches transcend human and spiritual historical space and time.

9. To fulfill the commitment of our Spiritual Agendas, we must not fall under the warning of Christ found in verse eight of chapter 21 of His Apocalypse:

8But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.

10. And how can we be immune to this dreadful fate? One way is by reading, studying, and discussing the new literary work of Good Will, Jesus and the Seven Churches of Asia – Pergamum, which arrives at a crucial moment for all. The Message of Jesus to the Brothers and Sisters in this Christian community serves as a powerful reminder to remain loyal to the Purposes of the Sage of the Millennia, so that we may attain the blessed state of being among “those whose names are written in the Lamb of God’s Book of Life, the Book of Eternal Life,” as described in the verse that concludes chapter 21 of the Revelation of the Divine Prophet.

Called to the Mission of the Good Will Organizations

11. Learn from Jesus, the Great Friend of humanity, not to be distracted by anything or anyone in the fulfillment of your duties assumed in the Spiritual World.

12. I recall the words I shared with you during an Administrative Meeting of the Good Will Organizations, held on December 16 and 17, 2005. You will see that my thought, my determination, and my Accomplishing Faith remain the same:

13. In today’s world, we see a generation often burdened for many reasons, one that must be awakened, embraced, enlightened, and guided by the New Commandment of the Divine Master: “Love one another, as I have loved you. Only by this shall all of you be recognized as my disciples” (the Gospel according to John 13:34 and 35). Therefore, in the key positions in our Divine Organizations, we must place only individuals who are truly called to the mission of the Good Will Organizations.

14. The late Brazilian radio broadcaster, journalist, and philosopher Alziro Zarur (1914-1979) has opened the doors of the Legion of Good Will―the Mother of us all―with the Chant of the Angels from the Heavenly Host announcing the birth of Jesus:

“Glory to God in the Highest, and Peace on Earth to those [men, women, young people, children, and the Spirits, Blessed Souls] of God’s Good Will!” (The Gospel according to Luke 2:14).

15. This reminds me of that quote from Osmar Carvalho e Silva (Spirit), transmitted to us through the sensitivity of Brother Chico Periotto. Late Osmar affirmed:

“Our work [that of the Spirits of Light] depends on your dedication, but your success depends on our support.”

16. I say it and I repeat: In the key positions in our Organizations, which belong to God, we must have only men, women, and young people who are truly called to the mission of Divine Good Will. The world will face increasing challenges, despite how incredible this may seem to those who believe that globalization has set humanity on the right course. This is because they are neglecting the crucial factor for this to happen: Fraternal Love.

17. The rigidity of the current human economy―lacking God―calls for a reform that starts within the spiritualized heart of each creature.

18. I always emphasize in my speeches that the Message of Jesus has the tone of Eternity. The Heavenly Father has taught us the Universal Laws; while His Christ, through the Holy Spirit, has taught us the Moral Laws, without which we cannot survive.

The Prudence of the Good

19. I address an audience of good-hearted individuals who must not only be honorable but also courageous, exceptionally competent, and brilliant in their service to Jesus, as the most noble Brother Dr. Bezerra de Menezes (Spirit) emphasizes. In this world, it remains essential to be vigilant against the cowardly and deceitful. Though they are our Brothers and Sisters in humanity, they still choose to distance themselves from Christ’s Fraternal Norms, lurking on the sidelines, poised to strike like a viper, aiming to bite the heel of the distracted passerby who draws near and causes it to feel threatened. A pioneering missionary must never be distracted.

Our Code of Conduct

Tela: Kirk Richards

20. Our fundamental principle is the Christ-inspired common sense that should always prevail in our daily lives. Boldness and modernity are the mottos of the Good Will Organizations, whose banner is the vanguard. However, boldness does not mean recklessness, and modernity is not about distorting the Legionary Orthodoxy. Hence the common sense I have been advocating for so long. . . . This is why we must remain steadfast, at all times and under any circumstance, in the Ecumenical Christ, the Divine Statesman. Trusting in Him means bearing witness to Him through our efforts, no matter how challenging. Working for Jesus is our strength; it is our code of conduct―which guides us―since the Divine Master proclaimed that He would go to the Father but would return to form “one Flock for one Shepherd” (Good News of Christ according to John 10:16). Thus, we must endeavor to understand the thoughts and actions of all people, not only in Brazil but across the world. This is the greatest wealth of our Organizations: those whom we successfully bring into the Fraternal Fold of the Heavenly Thaumaturge.

The Glorious Charisma of Jesus

21. The Good Will Organizations carry the Charisma of Jesus. Do you know what that means? It is nothing less than His New Commandment of Universal Love coursing through their spiritual veins and arteries. These are Organizations with a history, tradition, and deep roots; they are well-established because they are genuine, serious, honest, humane, kind―yet know how to defend themselves. Their destiny is progress in God.

The Secret of Victory

22. Therefore, my Sisters and Brothers, to overcome any challenge―whether at home, at work, in managing the Good Will Organizations, or in leading peoples and nations―choose Jesus! This is the secret of victory. It was true yesterday, it is the reality today, and it will remain so in the future.

23. Jesus is arriving! Jesus is arriving! Jesus is arriving! He is the inextinguishable Light that has illuminated us since the beginning. The year of 2025 and the years to come, for all eternity, await the best from each one of us.

24. The Legionnaires of Good Will and Christians of the New Commandment, Friends of Jesus, were prepared by God for great battles, yet with assured victories for “a better world and a happier humanity,” as declares the radio slogan created by Brother Zarur, which has opened and closed the “Good Will Campaign” since March 4, 1949.

25. Your mission is to spread the Peace of God across the world. The path of the Good Will Organizations is that of Peace!

26. My deepest gratitude to the Spirits of God, our competent and enlightened partners in this millennial endeavor in testimony to Our Lord Jesus Christ! Hail Friend and Brother Dr. Bezerra de Menezes and his dedicated Spiritual Team!

Hail the 65 years of the Proclamation of the Spiritual Universalist Center of the Divine Religion!

Hail the 51 years of the Proclamation of the Religion of God, of the Christ, and of the Holy Spirit!

Hail the 35 years of the Temple of Good Will!

Hail the 30 years of the LGW’s ParlaMundi!

Hail the 75 years of the Legion of Good Will!

Hail the New Heaven and the New Earth for which we shall work to succeed in 2025!

Whoever trusts in Jesus does not waste time, because He is the Great Friend who never abandons a friend along the way!

The closer we are to Jesus, the farther we are from problems!

And, as Brother Zarur taught us,

“Under all circumstances, immediately think of Jesus!”


Jesus Lives in Our Hearts Forever!

From the one who loves you,
Brother Paiva
President of the Good Will Organizations

 

Addendum

Apocalypse of Jesus

Chapter 21

A New Heaven and a New Earth

1 Then I saw a New Heaven and a New Earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea.

2 I, John, also saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of Heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Behold, the Tabernacle of God is among the people, and God will dwell with them. They will be His people, and God Himself will be with them and be their God.

4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the former things have passed away.

5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then He said, “Write this down, for these words are true and faithful.”

6 He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To the thirsty I will give water without cost from the Spring of the Water of Eternal Life.

7 Those who are victorious will inherit all this, and I will be their God and they will be my children.

8 But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”

The New Jerusalem

9 One of the Seven Angels who had the seven bowls full of the Seven last Plagues came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the bride, the wife of the Lamb of God.”

10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a mountain great and high, and showed me the Holy City, Jerusalem, coming down out of Heaven from God.

11 It shone with the Glory of God, and its brilliance was like that of a very precious jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal.

12 It had a great, high wall with twelve gates, and with twelve Angels at the gates. On the gates were written the names of the twelve tribes of Israel.

13 There were three gates on the east, three on the north, three on the south and three on the west.

14 The wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve Apostles of the Lamb of God.

15 The Angel who talked with me had a measuring rod of gold to measure the city, its gates, and its walls.

16 The city was laid out like a square, as long as it was wide. He measured the city with the rod of gold and found it to be 12,000 stadia in length, and as wide and high as it is long.

17 The Angel measured the wall using human measurement, and it was 144 cubits thick.

18 The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass.

19 The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone. The first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald,

20 the fifth onyx, the sixth ruby, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth turquoise, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst.

21 The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate made of a single pearl. The great street of the city was of gold, as pure as transparent glass.

22 I did not see a temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and His Lamb are its temple.

23 The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine on it, for the Divine Glory gives it light, and the Christ of God is its lamp.

24 The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the Earth will bring their splendor into it.

25 On no day will its gates ever be shut, for there will be no night there.

26 The glory and honor of the nations will be brought into it.

27 Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb of God’s Book of Life, the Book of Eternal Life.
