We can escape human justice, but God's justice is impossible.

Suffering is useful and necessary because, through the pain we feel, it allows us to understand what malicious thoughts, words, and actions generate, and thus to make the firm resolve never again to do evil in any form whatsoever, to anyone, human, animal, or plant.

Suffering is useful and necessary because it allows us to reduce the mass of culpable acts accumulated in all our previous lives and to erase the sins inherent in these malicious, even criminal, acts.

Suffering is useful and necessary because it allows us to have a clear idea of ​​the pain felt by the person we harmed in our previous life, being indifferent to their cries. It also allows us to know that “what we have done will be done to us.”

Suffering is useful and necessary because it allows us to become aware of our malicious acts, to do penance, to repent, to ask for forgiveness, to turn to God, to respect and definitively apply divine precepts, laws, and commandments.

It is written: “You shall not kill” and “If anyone kills with the sword, he must be killed with the sword.”

It is also written: “An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.” Now, if this principle should be applied, it is against one who cruelly and shamelessly sacrifices the life of another to ensure his own livelihood. The death penalty is indeed the least sentence such a murderer can receive, and the Holy Scriptures stipulate that by receiving such punishment from the king, according to the principle of “an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth,” the culprit is purified of all his sins, so much so that he may become eligible for promotion to the heavenly planets.

The Lord said: Those freed from duality, the fruit of illusion, those who were virtuous in their past lives as well as in this life, those in whom sin has completely ceased, these serve Me with determination.

Is it true that the soul is neither masculine nor feminine?

Yes, the spiritual being is neither masculine nor feminine, because sex only concerns the material body, not the soul.

We must strive to distinguish the spiritual soul from the material body, without becoming attached to the external designations of masculine or feminine.

As long as these distinctions persist in our minds, we must not attempt to become a hermit. At the very least, we must be intellectually convinced that the being itself, the soul, is neither masculine nor feminine.
