Maria Valtorta (Itália, ano 1897-1961) - Obra: "Lições sobre a Carta de São Paulo aos Romanos" (1948-1950) The Holy Spirit says,
[...] These, the separated ones, the segregated ones, sacred to God
[refers to those who walk according to the spirit, a spirit made divine by the love that is still God in man], possess and taste love. The others: Christians according to the word and not according to the spirit, possess and taste the concupiscence of the flesh which is not love, but the appetite of carnal pleasure. There is an abyss between the first and second ones; the impossibility of an alliance and the incomprehensibility in everything. A bridge is above
the abyss, an ascending bridge: the name of God.
The first, with their compassionate love towards their poor brothers, call and hold out their hands to their poor brothers from the highest point of the bridge in order to make them cross the abyss and bring them on the way of the spirit with the holy seduction of that Name who enkindles visions of unspeakable joys.
The second ones, however, either do not welcome the invitation, or after ascending a little, are weighed down by the weight of the flesh, seduced by its fruits that are from the lower part of the bridge which joins Earth with Heaven, they precipitate again towards the palpable, material, and carnal fruits of the flesh, and there they graze by giving up craving for mysterious, spiritual, celestial fruits, insipid for their carnal and corrupt tastes, and which corruption brings to their spirit because "the wisdom of the flesh is death".
The second ones, however, who believe they can serve both God and Mammon by balancing and counter-balancing substantial actions of the flesh with faithful religious practices and rites and by mistakening divine Mercy for foolish goodness which is licit to mock for as long as life is beautiful, health is good, and business and riches are prosperous things, by reducing themselves to an extreme contrition in order to avoid hell, a contrition which is not always permitted of being performed by a God who has been scorned for a whole lifetime, (they) believe themselves to be "wise" because they know how to enjoy
themselves and pray, oh! muddied prayers, a disgusting thing, for He who is the Purest One! This is "wisdom of the flesh" and it is not peace, and it is not life, and neither is it land and wealth of future and eternal peace and celestial life.
These, however, are the Judas-friends of God. Those whom, like the Traitor, pretend to have respect towards God and towards their neighbour, both present in the Man-God Jesus, and who call him "Friend" – He who is always present in His true children, in those who live according to the spirit and who graze and taste only spiritual food – and then betray God and are enemies to Him by disobeying His Law of love and all of the Decalogue, by obstructing His will and by oppressing and crucifying His servants, His voices and His instruments.
Now the end of Judas was not only death of the flesh, but also death of the spirit. He was already a "dead man", a "corpse" of Satan while he still ate the lamb with the Lamb and while the Bread of Life descended within him. Rather, it was correct then, on account of his hypocrisy, that Satan entered into him as the supreme, eternal master. Because God is Truth and God cannot be where there is falsehood, hypocrisy, and false testimony against one who is innocent. Judas was all this. The Bread of Life did not
have the power to conquer the insipidity of the carnal fruit, and Judas, by sacrilegiously mixing the concupiscent appetite of the flesh with the fruit of the sweetest and holiest Sacrament of love, signed his decree of eternal death.
Because love and hate cannot live together. Because God and Satan cannot be served together.
Because there is no forgiveness for sin against Love, a deicidal and fratricidal sin. Because the hypocrite, the liar, and the calumniator cannot enter the Kingdom of Truth.
"Dogs, poisoners, the unchaste, murderers, idolaters, and whoever is fond of and practices lying will be outside of the heavenly Jerusalem." (Apocalypse c. 22, v.15) One poisons and kills now even without any other poison than that of calumny and sorrow given to one’s brother. One is an idolater now even if, for an idol, one adores one’s own I, by believing it to be perfect, or the idol of another I.
I say that it is easier to save a Disma
[the thief saved on the cross, Saint Dismas], sincere in his confession, than a false servant of the Law and of Christ. Because God paternally loves a sinner who repents. However, His goodness rejects whoever turns the gifts of God into a concupiscent fruit and places carnal matters even where there is only divine concern.
