SPIRITUAL CAPACITY
| |
1 |
Those souls who have the capacity and ability to receive the
outpourings of the Kingdom and the confirmation of the Holy
Spirit, they become attracted through one word. But people who
have not the capacity, no matter how much one explain the divine
behests and advices or breathe the breath of the Holy Spirit, it
will not make an effect; nay, rather they add to their hardness
and heedlessness.

2 |
No sooner is the oil touched by fire than it is ignited, but the
heat of the fire will not make any effect upon the black stone.

3 |
Now praise be to God that thou didst have a pure aim and great
capacity so that as soon as thou didst hear the "Word" thou didst
become attracted. Indeed this is one of the most great gifts
of God.
