The Divine Part of the Bible

Originally from Great Britain, dating back to 1549, Bible Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in December. In Brazil, it has been celebrated since 1850. The printing of the first copy of the Holy Bible from its Latin version, in 1455, by...

Jesus, the Preventive Medicine

Some people think that we should only remember our Heavenly Friend when we are facing suffering. But Jesus is the preventive medicine that nations need. That is why we consider Him to be the Religion of Life, on...

The Birth of Jesus!

Two significant dates prepare the spirit of people for the celebrations of yet another Christmas, of the Ecumenical Christ, the Divine Statesman. I am referring to the International Human Solidarity Day (12/20) and the day dedicated in Brazil to orphans (12/24).

On His first visible visit to the planet, the Heavenly Provider exemplified with His own life the value of solidarity without borders, whether they are created by language, the color of the skin, political opinion, etc. He also adopted an ecumenical approach of protecting the underprivileged people of the Earth.

Tela: Jesus Mafa - 1973

Reflecting on the broad and unrestricted meaning of Christmas for the LGW and for those it closes ranks with in building “a better Brazil and a happier Humanity”, I remember an extract from a circular I wrote in Brasília/DF dated June 4, 1997. It is part of my book “Liderar sob a proteção de Deus” [Leading under the protection of God], which is under preparation.

I dedicate it to all the hearts of Goodwill: (...) Let us address a fervent Prayer to Christ, our Lord, inasmuch as this is the safe path that will lead us to victory. In Christ we shall conquer! What do we want if not to offer the disinherited of the world a Special Supper that feeds their thirsty Spirits for all time with food that comes from Above: Jesus, the Bread that descended from Heaven? This Bread that descended from Heaven is also Education, Culture, Food, Security, Health, and Work with Ecumenical Spirituality! A dream that comes to us from the Christ of God, so that we may establish it all over the world, for which we need to develop a realistic sense, in order to infallibly lead the multitudes on the paths of the Soul. This is because in these times of advanced technology Humanity urgently needs to be more sensitive to the generous sentiments that drive Fraternity and Social Solidarity, which are sorely lacking these days.

A Merry Christmas to everyone and a prosperous New Year full of Good achievements!

José de Paiva Netto (1941-2025), a writer, journalist, radio broadcaster, educator, composer, poet, the President Emeritus and Consolidator of the Legion of Good Will, and Spiritual Leader of the Religion of God, of the Christ, and of the Holy Spirit. He was an effective member of the Brazilian Press Association (ABI) and the Brazilian International Press Association (ABI-Inter), a member of the National Federation of Journalists (FENAJ), the International Federation of Journalists (IFJ), the Union of Professional Journalists of the State of Rio de Janeiro, the Union of Writers of Rio de Janeiro, the Radio Broadcasters Union of Rio de Janeiro, the Brazilian Union of Composers (UBC), and the Academy of Letters of Central Brazil. He became an internationally recognized author in the defense of human rights and in his concepts of Ecumenical Citizenship and Ecumenical Spirituality, which, in his own words, represent “the cradle of the most generous values that are born of the Soul, the dwelling of emotions and of reasoning enlightened by intuition; the atmosphere that embraces everything that transcends the ordinary field of matter and comes from elevated human sensitivity, such as Truth, Justice, Mercy, Ethics, Honesty, Generosity, and Fraternal Love. In short, the mathematical constant that harmonizes the equation of spiritual, moral, mental, and human existence. Now, without the understanding that we exist on two planes―not only on the physical plane―it will be difficult to build a Society that is truly Ecumenical, Altruistic, and Solidary, since we would still be ignoring that the knowledge of Superior Spirituality elevates the character of creatures and, consequently, leads to the construction of the Planetary Citizenship.”
