ícone Only goodness prevails

        Do you know John Wilkes Booth? Have you ever heard of him? Certainly not.

        However, if we ask if you know Abraham Lincoln, the majority of people will say that he was one of the best well-known American Presidents, that he made a huge contribution to Mankind, abolishing the horror of slavery from his country.

        The first name we mentioned is the American actor who, in a coward and treacherous way, shot Lincoln in the head, while he watched a play.

        The same happened with many other cowards from our History.

        The moral death of these creatures is determined by their own attitude of cowardice and disloyalty. They receive from Mankind only forgetfulness and disdain.

        Who has not heard of Ghandi? The man who, in the name of non-violence, freed his people from the English yoke.

        He was also murdered, but who remembers the name of his assassin?

        Martin Luther King used to say: I have a dream. And his dream was that whites and blacks could sit together at the table of fraternity.

        The killer bullet shot by a coward who was hiding in the crowd, trying to annihilate his dream, managed to smash that man’s brain, but his ideas were and still are the same.

        His dream became true. If not totally, at least partially.

        Who knows the name of the killer? Mankind has not even registered this name.

        Who has not heard of Socrates, one of the Fathers of Philosophy? But his executioners have been forgotten by Mankind.

        Many other characters, which fought for a good cause, are in the registers of Mankind’s History. Many were killed, but of his murderers, people do not hear about.

        Thus, we want to remember that only goodness prevails. That the ones who were executioners certainly have already been back or will come back to live other existences. They will have the chance of repairing the mistakes made.

        But the goodness carried through, it does not matter by whom, this one is registered. This one was worthwhile. Evil will have to be repaired one way or another.

        Jesus Christ is the best example we have ever heard of. He lived goodness, exemplified it, and His teaching has been remembered by Human kind for more than two millenniums.

        His physical brain has been erased, but no one has ever managed to eradicate His ideas from Earth, even if many have tried that already.

        Those ideas live and will keep living forever, as coming from God.

        Jesus said that: It is easier for heaven and earth to pass, than one title of the law to fail.

        This assertive gives us the exact notion of the law of Cause and Effect.

        Thus, the ones who make mistakes, who act in the wrong way, they will have to repair their acts until the last item of the Law has been fulfilled.

        Until their acts are in concordance with the Divine Laws, because these Laws will never be circumvented.
