The reasons of Josoe's death (the 12 years old boy who was resurrected by the Lord, an year and a half after his death) “But in the same vault was also another corpse placed there by friends Jairus. It belonged to a boy of twelve who had died of a serious illness already a year and a half ago. This one was lying in a coffin of cedar wood and was already fully decomposed except for the bones. [2] At the sight of this coffin, tears came to the eyes of Jairus and he said tearfully: “What a bad thing world is! It allows the most tender flowers to sprout from its ground and what is their lot? They have to die and pass away. The fragrant scent of the rose soon becomes an offensive smell and the tender, innocent lily spreads a nauseous stench in its decay; the skyblue of the hyacinths turns a deadly yellowish gray and the carnation dies like thousands of its beautifully fragrant sisters. [3] This boy was – one could say – an angel. He was pious from the cradle and by his tenth year he already understood The Scripture and kept the commandments like a God – fearing adult Jew. In short, his truly childlike pious way of life and his astonishing mental abilities showed the best promise. But then he contracted a bad illness which no physician could control and thus in this boy died everything one could have expected him to soon realize. [4] Here one really must ask why the Lord God who is full of love and mercy allows this to happen to people who trust and rely on Him. Thousands of poor children live homeless and without education and God does not call them away from this earth, whereas children of parents who can afford to give them a God-pleasing education usually have to die. Why is this? [5] If it pleases God to put only savages on this earth who can hardly utter five words, then God does the right thing in promptly removing from the earth every child that shows better spirit and letting only the idiots live beside the apes. But if God wishes to have on this earth spiritually awakened, pious, God recognizing and loving people, I think God should pay more attention to the life of such children than has been the regrettable case until now.”
[6] Say I (The Lord) – My dear friend, Jairus, you speak as you understand it from a human point of view, but God acts according to how He in His divine way understands and must understand it from eternity or you and all that is, would not have an existence. But you nevertheless do an injustice to God with your grumbling. [7] For if God had taken from the world all the children who already in their childhood had given evidence of intelligence and talents, all of you who are now here with Me would already have decayed in the earth. For also all of you revealed in your childhood particularly much intelligence, you were children of very wealthy parents and God still allowed you to live while He outside among the heathens took many thousands of poor children from this earth through dysentery and other bad illnesses which caused their poor parents quite as much grief as the parents of this boy who are still living and have adopted for this boy three poor children. These three children are now quite worthy successors of the one child who in time, because of his great talents , would have been pampered and spoilt too much by his parents who loved him more than God, and in the end he would not have lived up to his parents’ great expectations as he would have become nothing but a conceited, proud and self-willed poor wretch with whom no high priest could have achieved anything. God however saw that in advance removed him at the right time from this world and in the beyond, gave him to the angels for a better education so that he might have a better chance to sooner reach the destination set for him for God as for any human. [9] In addition to this, God had planned for a time to come when for you few, God’s name shall be glorified. And behold, that is the reason why God let this boy die already a year and a half ago so that he would be properly decomposed when the Lord God will once more restore him to life.” (THE GREAT GOSPEL OF JOHN vol. 2, 69:1-9) Children’s souls in the beyond “In Lorber’s work ‘The Spiritual Sun’ (vol. 2, chap. 67) this ‘solar children’s realm’ and the ingenious, loving way in which their spiritual development is promoted are described in detail. This inscription is concluded as follows: Once the young souls have absolved all these wonderful schools and have gathered strength and wide practical experience as teachers and leaders in the spiritual world, they too become citizens of the holy City of God – where, however, they must at first be again the very least of all and let themselves be prepared by the main citizens for all the sublime tasks awaiting them in the heaven, (Spiritual Sun vol. 2, 122) - from Fundamental Principles of Life, by Walter Lutz (for the detailed picture of the destiny of children after death - read the chapters from The Spiritual Sun concerning the kingdom of children in the beyond) Causes of children's fatal diseases. Parents’ and ancestors' sins “[1] Says a Greek Jew: ‘Lord and Master, this is now quite clear to us, but there is still something for which I have no true explanation. Why do so many children have to die at the most tender age while still underdeveloped, and why must physical death almost always be preceded by a bad illness which weakens and kills the body? Once a man is mature, he could as a soul leave the body easily and painlessly, and children should never die before reaching a certain maturity. However, what happens all time is this; Children die at any age, and the bad diseases are always there and are a continual plague for men. O. Lord and Master, why must that be so on this earth? [2] Say I: ‘This need not be so at all and was not the case in the past, for do you ever read in a chronicle of bad illnesses amongst the men who were devoted to God and living according to His Commandments? They all lived to a ripe old age and their passing was a gentle, painless going to sleep. Also, no child ever died, for it was begotten by very healthy parents and nourished and raised according to sound and simple natural principles. [3] Only later, when arrogance and with a whole legion of the grossest sins against God’s commandments and laws of nature gained entrance among people, did all sorts of bad ailments occur among them through their own fault. The thus weakened people could then no longer beget healthy children. Such children, already crippled from the womb, gradually became prone to more and more attacks from all kinds of diseases and began to die at all ages. [4] Because this is now happening you must not think that God has ordained this for men for some inexplicable, secret reason. He allowed it, firstly, so that the people might be prevented from too much sinning through their ailments and, secondly, that they might, through their painful suffering leave the world behind, turn over a new leaf, recognize their sins, detest them and, therefore, patiently resigned to God’s will, attain to eternal bliss. (GGJ Book 6, chap. 55)
