Every person has the right to decide for himself which relationship he wants to have with Me. He can regard Me as father, as brother or friend, but he can also only see his God in Me, the highest most perfect being, Whom he wants to submit to and Whose commandments he wants to fulfil because he acknowledges Me as the highest power. This latter relationship, however, will never be accompanied by profound love for Me in a person but only by awe and admiration, respect and worship. But I want love, I want an intimate relationship with Me to be established, for love alone is bliss. How poor a person is who lacks love, and how rich he is who possesses it …. I certainly take pleasure in the humility of the one who submits to Me as the highest Power, who acknowledges Me and wants to gain My pleasure, I will also meet him halfway and bestow My love upon him, yet My aim is always to change his attitude towards Me into the right relationship …. into the relationship of a child to its father, of a bride to her bridegroom, into the relationship which has love as its foundation. For I can reciprocate this, I can give away that which is My fundamental nature, I can let My love radiate, thus make happy with My fundamental substance which flows as strength towards the object of My love …. I can grasp My living creations and draw them to Me …. I can make them blissfully happy forever. But every human being has free will, I woo his love, his trust and approach him as father by bestowing My care upon him, by taking care of him in adversity and distress and constantly granting My grace to him …. Yet where My love is not reciprocated in the same way, where the heart does not press towards Me with a fervent desire for union with Me, where the child does not call for its father and approach Him in childlike trust, confidently expecting His help in every spiritual and earthly adversity, there I cannot reveal Myself in My fatherly love either, although I will always be recognisable as God, as the all-creating and sustaining Power, and I will not leave My living creations empty-handed who strive towards Me. Nevertheless, I will not cease to woo their love, to push them into the right relationship with Me, always respecting free will but nevertheless bringing the human being into situations where he can take refuge with the father as a child and thus establish a trusting relationship and completely win Me over for himself. Only then will he progress quickly, because My power of love can now flow into him unhinderedly and this signifies the soul’s upward development, which is the aim and purpose of his earthly life ….

Amen

Receive spiritual food as often as it is possible for you. You are at the start of such a difficult time that you have to be anxious to make yourselves resistant to hardship and suffering of all kinds. You will need much strength if you want to fulfil your earthly as well as your spiritual task, and My word imparts this strength to you. For this reason I admonish you again and again to make use of My gift of grace; I draw your attention to the adversities of the coming time and only warn you humans against living thoughtlessly from day to day, fulfilling the body’s every desire and leaving the soul in want, for it is merely a matter of the soul’s good …. your life in eternity. I would like to help you to be saved, yet your will has to become active and you should not believe that eternal beatitude can be acquired effortlessly, that it will fall to you against your will, without any help from you. You must be aware of the fact that with the death of your body the opportunity to work with your own strength is over, that you will bitterly regret every passed-up opportunity when you come to realise what earthly life has been for you. You only have a very short time left but it is enough if you have the serious will to mature your souls, for I will see to it that you are offered a thousand opportunities to fulfil your actual task in life, the work of unselfish neighbourly love. But there is one thing you must not neglect to make My word your own, to draw strength and comfort from it, because you, who let My word speak to your hearts, unite with Me Myself and thereby receive great blessings for your soul. Do not be satisfied with the fact that My word is offered to you from time to time but look for the opportunity yourselves with a hungry heart to put yourselves into its blessing …. Come to Me, I will refresh you …. Let Me speak to you often, do not be lukewarm and indifferent but hurry up and build up a store of strength in yourselves so that you will become strong in faith and be able to walk the most difficult path of life serenely and calmly, remain constantly aware of My presence and thus walk with Me towards the aim …. to be completely united with Me in the kingdom of light …. Take every word seriously which is conveyed to you through My servants on earth, think about how urgently you need My admonitions, about the danger you are in if you slacken your striving, if you attach too little importance to My word which is offered to you in deepest love in view of the great adversity. You stand in a great extraordinary grace that you receive My word …. make use of this gift of grace, feed your soul with the bread of heaven, do not let it go hungry, for it needs spiritual nourishment …. Therefore pay more attention to your soul than to your body, pay more attention to spiritual life than to earthly life, for the latter will bring you great disappointment if you attach too much value to it. But even a difficult earthly life need not frighten you who strive spiritually, you will live it with Me if you always and constantly let Me speak to you in the word ….

Amen

My kingdom is not of this world …. And thus everything that is to lead to or contribute towards the attainment of My kingdom will not be of a worldly nature but can only have a spiritual character. My words which I spoke on earth can only be understood spiritually, and the observance of My word must have a spiritual effect, just as it only has to be expressed by every action being always an impulse of the heart, i.e. inner impulses alone are decisive as to what extent the human being takes possession of My kingdom. Neither worldly customs can increase the right to My kingdom nor active help given to the neighbour without the heart being involved. My kingdom is not of this world …. Do you believe that I require worldly or symbolic actions in order to make this kingdom of Mine accessible to you? Do you believe that I can take pleasure in externals which are more of a danger, because deep inner impulses subside in the human being as a result, but the externals distract him and finally are solely paid attention to by him. I truly did not give any encouragement for this through My word, yet the inner bond with Me, through which they attain high maturity of soul and thus can already occupy My kingdom on earth, was not enough for people, and they attached great importance to the fulfilment of certain customs which, however, are completely irrelevant for the attainment of My kingdom. Whoever keeps My commandments …. loves Me above all else and his neighbour as himself can also rightly call himself an aspirant of My kingdom. But it is never possible to gain it if My commandments are not observed. How often, however, do I miss the observance of My commandment of love in those who strictly adhere to outwardness, who strictly adhere to the commandments which were added by people to My commandment of love. How precisely people often comply with what their fellow human beings commanded them, yet I pay no attention to it as long as the soul is not involved in it …. (12.11.1947) although I also bless the will of those who believe to serve Me with it because the truth has not yet been conveyed to them. But it is My will that the truth penetrates and displaces what contradicts it. Consequently, it is My will that whoever receives the truth from Me shall speak up for it. It is My will that error be denounced, that people who still move in erroneous thinking be instructed, that they be given clarification by those who are My servants on earth, whom I have chosen to spread the truth, who hear My word and are therefore instructed by Me Myself in the pure truth. For it concerns the faster development of the soul …. You only have little time left and yet you can gain a considerable advantage if you live according to My will …. disregard everything external and work intensively on your soul, as soon as you base all thinking, speaking and acting on My commandment of love and receive My word wherever it is offered to you …. Hearing My word is urgently necessary, and wherever it is offered to you, there you will also receive blessings if your soul hungers and thirsts for them. And My word you shall hear …. For the sake of My word you should seek out the place where it is imparted to you, if you are not taught by Me directly or My word is conveyed to you through My servants. You should by no means feel bound by laws which did not originate from Me, for the Lawgiver from eternity is Me, and My law from eternity is: Love Me above all else and your neighbour as yourself …. Then you will surely gain My kingdom, which is not of this world ….

Amen

Only that is truth which has its origin in Me as the eternal truth. There is only one truth and this is conveyed to earth by Me Myself through My spirit. You humans should understand that truth can never originate from humans, for the human being, as an imperfect creature, is distant from truth as long as he is not united with Me, because truth cannot exist outside of Me. Distance from Me likewise signifies wrong thinking, ignorance and lack of powers of cognition. Consequently, the human being will not be able to distinguish truth from error but will always lean towards error in a state of remoteness from God because it corresponds to his imperfect nature. Only when he is united with Me will he accept the truth from Me and also recognise it as such. And even if the truth is not offered to him by Me in an extraordinary form through the inner word, his line of thought will still be right, for his thinking is guided by the spirit, he will be enlightened and therefore also stand in truth. Hence the bond with Me must always be established first, and this requires seclusion and inner immersion in spiritual problems, questions which the human being desires to be answered, heartfelt thoughts of Me and appeals for My help, for right thinking …. for enlightenment of the spirit. Then he will desire the truth and it will be given to him. But then the human being will also have to compare with the spiritual knowledge which was offered him by people, and he will realise that the latter differs considerably from that which is imparted to him by Me. For I reserve the right to distribute the truth Myself. But what comes from Me, what obviously originates from Me, can be accepted and also defended as pure truth with utmost certainty, and therefore I choose servants for Myself on earth who directly receive knowledge from Me which has to be addressed as pure truth, because it demonstrably has no other origin than the spiritual kingdom, since the act of transmission proceeds extraordinarily, thus eliminating human thought. And now this spiritual knowledge conveyed by Me to earth can confidently be used as a standard for knowledge to be examined …. What agrees with it is truth, what deviates from it can be rejected as error and also branded accordingly. For error is seeds of satan, error is My adversary’s means to oust Me from people’s hearts and to increase his power. You humans are too lenient towards error, you do not recognise its great danger and therefore you do not fight it but tolerate it. But I cannot tolerate it and therefore instruct My servants to fight it strictly and to drop all tolerance if it is necessary to expose error and put forward truth. I demand that My servants fight with the sword of their mouth and endow them with all gifts to successfully take action against everything that contradicts the truth from Me, which does not have its origin in Me. I alone distribute the truth, but I consider all who want to stand in truth, for the desire for truth also proves the desire for Me Myself, and I will never deny Myself, but I also demand as a gift in return that the recipient of truth will speak up for it towards his fellow human beings who are still under the sway of the one who fights against everything that comes from Me and who, as the prince of lies, will always try to undermine the pure truth so that I will no longer be recognised, so that people will walk in darkness and shun the light which, through My love, shines for them again and again, for all those who desire to be in the light ….

Amen

The act of forgiveness of sins can also only be regarded as a ceremony if the spiritual prerequisites for the forgiveness of the guilt of sin are lacking. If the human being feels sinful and carries his guilt of sin to God, if he sincerely repents of his sins and asks God for forgiveness, his sin will also be forgiven by God and for the sake of Jesus Christ the guilt will be remitted, because the human being Jesus died on the cross for the purpose, that the guilt of sin of all humanity of the past, present and future was redeemed. And so the first prerequisite for the forgiveness of sin is faith in the redemptive work of Christ and the will to belong to those who have been redeemed from their guilt of sin through the blood of Christ. Sincere repentance towards God and thus the realisation of having transgressed against God through sin, of having violated His commandment of love, is a further prerequisite that justifies the act of forgiveness of sin. A person can indeed express repentance with words, while his heart is not touched, thus he does not suffer under the pressure of his sins and thus does not realise how seriously he has transgressed against God and His commandments. Then the guilt of sin cannot be taken away from him either, then he remains afflicted with his sin (13.11.1947) until he is aware of his guilt and it presses him, so that he appeals to God for forgiveness. However, the human being has no reason to mention his sins to his fellow human beings. (14.11.1947) It is true that this has one thing in itself, that he practices humility by openly confessing his weaknesses and faults, but this open confession to a person has nothing to do with the forgiveness of his sins. “Whose sins you forgive, are forgiven them; and whose sins you retain, are retained.” …. You cite these words of Jesus as a reason, but you do not consider that Jesus spoke to His disciples, to those who had attained a spiritual maturity through their way of life, which made them clairvoyant and clear-hearing. Furthermore, Jesus spoke of the sins whose consequences were physically visible and occasioned the sinners to seek help, i.e. averting their suffering, from the disciples whom they recognised as great men of God …. From this arose the act of general forgiveness of sins after the confession of sins to a person, which, however, is again only to be regarded as a transformation of Christ’s teaching, as a deception insofar as people mostly believe (make) the forgiveness of their sins dependent on the confession of them, but this confession often becomes a formal matter, whereas deep inner repentance, the confession of guilt against God and detestation of sin and the earnest desire to amend one’s life only faintly touch the human heart, but the forgiveness of sins is dependent on this alone. This inner confession of guilt must be made to God. No mediator is necessary for this and thus auricular confession is once again only a commandment added by people to Christ’s teaching which, however, is extremely well observed but contradicts God’s will, Who wants to have every outwardness replaced by true inner devotion to God, by completely spiritual experience and living out His commandments. For every outwardness is a great danger for people that they observe themselves too little, that they only make the humanly added requirements their concern and thereby become shallow and lukewarm in their work on their souls. For people’s spiritual decline proves that the will to detest sin, which is the result of profound repentance, does not exist or has not become an act, which would absolutely be the case if the act of forgiveness of sin had not been given such a form but was always only an inner concern of each individual. Then the human being would educate himself to an improved way of life, if only he were of good will. But in this way even the willing become lukewarm and indifferent through false teachings and presentations of the forgiveness of sins, which is not intended by God as it is presented to people. Only true inwardness is of value before God, and every external form does not please Him and therefore does not meet His approval.

Amen

The last days before the end will show the strength of resistance people will muster who belong to the true Church of Christ, in contrast to those who pay more homage to the human structure which they will see disintegrate in view of the battle of faith. For it will be a time when no compromises will be made, when everyone will have to make a clear decision, when religious doctrines will be unravelled down to the last detail and will therefore also necessitate thinking about and when everything of an external nature cannot stand up to serious criticism and will therefore be condemned or rejected. Only then will people realise how worthless it was and how much grace and strength rests in true faith and the heartfelt bond with Me which lacks all formality. People will see something fall apart which they portray as permanent and they will have to realise that those without enforced commandments have a far stronger faith and are far closer to Me through their way of life and their will, which looks for and strives towards Me constantly. All ecclesiastical performances will become subject to the measures of those who fight against spiritual issues, and only someone who longs for Me from the bottom of his heart, who receives My Word and with My Word also My strength, will prove himself …. Then much will be abolished which seems important to people now, and they will have to relinquish it and content themselves with silent contemplation without external actions, without pomp and glamour and without teachers who were not enlightened by Me and therefore unsuitable for the office of a minister. And they will have to acknowledge that I Myself have chosen My servants on earth and given them the task to instruct their fellow human beings and to convey the truth to them …. And blessed are those who will then accept the truth, who will make an effort to live according to My will and who use the short time until the end for their soul’s development, for they will bear up and persevere until the end ….

Amen

The teachings you receive from Me guarantee purest truth and yet you oppose them with doubts. But you shall provide yourselves with the evidence and can only do so if you live strictly according to My word, thus if you work according to My will. For then your life will be an uninterrupted activity of love which will result in clearest realisation and an absolutely certain feeling for truth. And make it your concern to constantly appeal to Me Myself for right thinking, and I will not let you go astray, I will walk beside you every step of the way if only you leave the guidance to Me and confidently entrust yourselves to Me. The term truth can only be applied to one thing …. to knowledge which is imparted to you humans by Me Myself. You can accept this knowledge without any scrutiny, for it is surely understandable to you that a scrutiny of My word on your part would be presumptuous, since the scrutiniser as a human being does not possess the ability to judge right and furthermore has no right to subject divine revelations to scrutiny. Instead, he must accept them unconditionally, even contrary to his own opinion, otherwise he would question his faith in God’s working in this way; if he believes in God and His love, wisdom and omnipotence he must take this faith as a basis and conclude that God’s love wants to convey the pure truth to people, that God’s wisdom offers people the right knowledge which is necessary and also helpful for their spiritual progress; and that God’s omnipotence puts a stop to every deception by evil forces as soon as the human being appeals to Him for His support …. If you humans urgently bear all this in mind then you will no longer oppose My words, for My fatherly love for you, My living creations, is exceedingly great; it wants to save you but never let you sink into thinking which has a damaging effect on your soul. Call upon Me in thought, speak to Me and listen to what I send to you as an answer …. And then firmly rely on it, for I have both the power and the right to reject and keep away every evil force from you, and My love must be your guarantee that I do so, otherwise you could dispute My love, for does a father leave his children in darkness when they desire light and he can give light in abundance? Will a father have the heart to send a child, who is obedient to him and wants to fulfil his will, an error-ridden teaching? …. Consider this and all doubt must disappear in you …. My love in you is boundless, thus it will only give you what you need and makes you mature spiritually …. the pure truth which originates from Me and can never ever be deformed by lower forces as long as you unite with Me in prayer and ask for illumination of spirit. Then My spirit will descend upon you and teach you according to the fullest truth ….

Amen

A divine revelation should and must be taken seriously, otherwise the recipient is not worthy of it. Various possibilities to solve earthly problems certainly exist, earthly things can be viewed from various angles, an earthly problem can be answered in different ways, depending on the human being’s attitude, however, in a spiritual respect there is only one truth, there is only one solution, and this solution is given by God Himself to those who desire it and are worthy of it. And despite the worthiness, the transmission of truth through revelations of the spirit is a very special grace which must be acknowledged, just as that which God imparts to people through revelations is beyond all doubt and may therefore be accepted without any examination. And, indeed, as soon as God Himself is acknowledged as the source of spiritual revelations his communications are no longer doubted. Yet it is precisely the source of spiritual revelation that is frequently questioned, and then the human being will not be entirely convinced that the content corresponds to the truth. However, the Word speaks for itself, and it speaks in a language which can certainly be understood by all those who live a life of love …. Kind-hearted people, who develop increasingly higher, can also affirm the content of the proclamations, for they grasp the truth and are on the right track with their thoughts, nothing will seem implausible to them, instead, they accept every Word and arrange their life accordingly. Yet a person who lacks love will find it more difficult to believe unconditionally. God’s working is incomprehensible to them, and neither can they completely appreciate the content, for love is the key to truth, love is indispensable if the human being wants to penetrate the truth through his acceptance of divine revelations. They can only be advised to practise acting with love, for only through this they will understand everything and disperse every doubt. Through love he will make contact with God and can subsequently also be instructed by God Himself. Then he will know the truth, he will be allowed to receive profound knowledge, it will be easy for him to believe, since the truth speaks for itself, and the Word of God will always be pure and unadulterated truth, because it originates from the One Who is the eternal Truth Himself ….

Amen

You have to heed the need of the moment, i.e. you have to hold yourselves in readiness, so when you hear My call within your heart you will be able to serve Me without hesitation, for the hour of taking up your post is near. And the sign and evidence of My Word’s truthfulness rests upon the fact that worldly obligations no longer seem important to you once you have heard My voice, which clearly instructs you what to do. You will have no further desire for this world but only find joy in your spiritual work, and you will receive help in accomplishing it because it is My will. This time will be preceded by a spiritual drought, a time when you will hunger for My Word, for lively activity in the spiritual field, and when you will lack every opportunity for spiritual debate. Although you will receive My Word, and My love will always take care of you, you will find yourselves isolated amidst a world with a zest for life which is unable to give you anything. You will get little sympathy from other people and therefore feel down-hearted but move ever closer to Me, and thus your hunger for My nourishment for your soul will increase, until you suddenly hear Me inside yourselves …. And then the hour will have come for your mission to begin …. And I will make sure that you will be able to start your work, that you will lose all shyness, that all reservation and fear will leave you.

You will only speak, think and act in accordance with My will, you will represent Me Myself on earth, that is, you will speak what you receive through My spirit, you will be living witnesses of My Word. You will go amongst people as My disciples again and proclaim to them My Word, with the addition that the end is near and that I will come Myself to fetch My Own when the time has arrived which I have determined since eternity. And, in order for you to speak freely and unimpeded, I will place people by your side who will provide you with worldly support, who will accompany you as faithful followers, who will protect and shield you from the world, although you will always enjoy My protection and I will not leave you until the end. But I will also take care of you in an earthly way and you should fulfil your task without concern, because your mission will completely drain your strength, and therefore you shall be free from all earthly worries. But I ask of you to pass on the gifts you receive from Me and thus make them accessible to other people; to carry My Word into the world verbally as well as in print, to spread the truth and thus inform your fellow human beings of My working, so that their thoughts are directed to the spiritual kingdom. And I will bless your service to Me, I will give you strength until the end and one day will reward your work in eternity ….

Amen

And thus a new phase will start for you, a time full of activity for Me and My kingdom …. and you will not regret having offered your services to Me, since you will feel the blessing of the work, you will multiply My church, the flock of believers around you will expand and you will be able to teach, and My spirit will constantly manifest itself through you. You will always be certain of My presence and this awareness will make you confident amongst people of hostile mind. For it will remain a battle of truth against lies and error, because humanity is already too deeply entangled in the latter. Nevertheless, people will, at first, be willing to listen to you, and the time following the natural disaster should be used since you will be able to speak freely, unimpeded by worldly power. Therefore I will need faithful labourers during this time and always seek to invite them, since help needs to be brought to those whose hearts were hardened by their destiny, and who will be looking far and wide for an explanation of the cause and purpose for this natural event. They will still possess a modest faith in divine justice, and then it will be particularly important to provide people with what they long for: light and strength, fullest understanding and a living faith in Me Myself, Who will speak to them through you in order to draw them close to Me and gladden them with My presence.

You will have to achieve a great task and thus will be guided in a worldly way such that you can fully devote yourselves to this task. Therefore you should be ready and wait for My call, and not hesitate to comply with it when you hear it within yourselves. Because I will guide your fate such that you can be at My disposal at any time, because time demands urgent action. You, however, shall receive clear vision and perception and will therefore always know where your work is needed and where it can be successful. I will lead the people to you whom I want to help through you and who are willing to believe …. For I will take care of all people who are not entirely subject to My adversary and who are of good will. I will approach them with My Word, I want to speak to them through you, and I want to win them over for Me and My kingdom, so that they will be eternally blessed.

Amen

Don’t take exception to the contradictions which seem to exist in My Word but consider the fact that your intellect cannot grasp everything My spirit imparts to you. Accept in good faith in Me and My love, wisdom and omnipotence that everything offered to you from above is not comparable to earthly wisdom; that even that which seems impossible to you is possible in the kingdom of the free spirits. Two worlds exist, the spiritual and the earthly world, and both stand in opposition to each other. However, it is My goal to spiritualise the earthly world, to educate it such that it can join the spiritual world in order to finally be a spiritual world itself. And on this earth, amid the earthly world, a spiritual world can also be established through the unification of those people who are in contact with the spiritual kingdom, who receive spiritual knowledge, strive spiritually and are thus averted to the earthly world and only still accomplish the work which has been assigned to them for their earthly life. They will likewise be in opposition to worldly-minded people who belong to the earthly world, and their thinking will also seemingly be in contradiction to the thoughts of the general public, for a spiritually directed eye sees things differently, the ear hears differently, and the soul feels differently than is otherwise the norm, and the earthly-minded person will not understand him. Then two worlds exist side by side and their inhabitants can be at various distances from Me even though they are together. One of them can understand that which he hears from Me, for the other it is and will remain inaudible or strange if it is passed on to him.

And this is what you have to accept if you want to judge My gifts from above. Whatever I give to one person corresponds to his maturity of soul, and it need not be wrong by any means if it seems incomprehensible to someone else. In that case it is not the gift itself which should be questioned but the person’s degree of maturity which is therefore insufficient to grasp spiritual knowledge. In that case it concerns information which goes above and beyond earthly knowledge, not commandments or proclamations intended to clarify My will to people but more profound wisdoms touching upon subjects beyond human knowledge. Then My Word will have to be the guarantee for truth, for neither examinations nor your own findings can provide you with proof. However, enlightened people will be able to believe it, that is, accept it as truth with complete inner conviction because they let their heart speak more than their intellect. For the heart is in contact with Me, the human being feels the truth, he does not make use of his intellect in order to seek the evidence of what is an inner conviction for him. Strive towards the spiritual world and your thoughts will be spiritually inclined, i.e., you will also be able to grasp spiritual concepts. Create the world that is your actual goal on earth already …. Detach yourselves from the earthly world by not desiring it any longer, instead only seek to carry out your earthly task …. to shape yourselves into beings whose greatest aspiration rests in their love for Me and their fellow human beings and thus approach Me, which aim to bring their nature into line with Mine by doing deeds of unselfish neighbourly love …. And you will become brightly enlightened and capable of understanding the most profound wisdom which, however, will never originate from the earthly but only from the spiritual world and be exceedingly valuable. And nothing you are offered from above will seem contradictory to you, you will be able to believe, i.e., be fully convinced, you will know the truth ….

Amen

Anyone who entrusts himself to Me need not fear failure, I will truly fight his cause and help him even though it appears hopeless according to human opinion. And I repeat that I will not leave My Own in adversity and that I will guide their steps and smooth their ways also in an earthly respect, because I am a friend and brother to My Own and always ready to help. And I say to you, who have become Mine through your will and your spiritual activity, you are under My special protection and have no reason for despondency …. Believe that it is good as it comes upon you and be grateful to the One Who holds your fate in His hand. Sufferings and joys will alternate in your still short earthly existence, accept both with gratitude and know that it is My will as it comes and that nothing happens without My approval, because I know what your soul needs to mature. Yet in every adversity you may come to Me, and the depth of your faith, the confidence in My loving help will always be rewarded …. You will be helped because I love you and am your faithful father. The fact that you should work for Me and My kingdom on earth and that I train you to do so must be proof to you of how close you are to Me and that I never want to lose you as labourers in the last days before the end. But anyone who is once in My service shall also be able to manage his service, and as his master I will also take over all care for him and thus also the worries which oppress him because he still lives on earth and cannot yet completely detach himself from it …. And thus I will give him what is desirable to him as long as it does not harm his soul. Therefore believe and hope and entrust yourselves to Me, and you will evidently experience My help ….

Amen

How you will hear My call to work for Me and My kingdom depends on each of My servants’ state of maturity on earth, because I need many labourers in My vineyard and everyone who is ready will be given the task he can meet in accordance with his ability, which again depends on his soul’s maturity. One person will feel an inner urge to speak about spiritual things, to attract people to Me and lead his fellow human beings into faith, he will be called by Me through an inner desire. I will effectively place this task into his feeling and he will accept this feeling and comply with the inner desire.

Another person will hear the inner voice; he will follow an inwardly prompted train of thought. He will be unable to detach himself from ideas which will motivate him so much that he will have to discuss them, and I will bring him into contact with people to whom he can talk about his thoughts and enter into spiritual conversations which inspire the fellow human being to dwell on it, and thus he will likewise be invited to My kingdom.

But I will also make Myself audibly heard to My servants, whose particularly advanced state of maturity allows for it. I will tell them clearly and understandably how they should work for Me, where they should go and what they should teach. And they will have a very special mission …. they will, encouraged by My spirit within themselves, preach My Word where My adversary is openly active …. where misguided teachings are spread by people who also call themselves My servants but who have not yet received the pure truth from Me because they refuse to accept it.

This mission requires a special ability …. it requires the gift of oratory, which My servant need not have but which will be given to him during his time of working for Me because he will have attained a certain degree of maturity allowing the working of My spirit through him. But at the same time the person has to intellectually grasp what he, prompted by My spirit, is saying. He has to be able to cope with hostile attacks and disprove any contention of My Word. Although he indeed merely has the task to spread My Word, the pure truth from Me, he will also have to speak freely since debates will arise which make intellectual activity indispensable. Furthermore, the comprehensively informed challengers have to acknowledge My servant’s spiritual superiority if they are to pay attention to what they will be told, as they will argue about important and profound problems which can only be handled by an awakened and spiritually enlightened human being with Me Myself as a teacher, and therefore also presents himself confidently and is not afraid to contradict those who pride themselves in being intelligent and knowledgeable.

These servants will receive a special call; they will audibly hear My voice within themselves so that they will be completely certain of My will and then totally subordinate themselves to it. If they win one of these teachers over for Me and My doctrine, for the absolute truth, which they can only receive from Me Myself through you, it will be a great spiritual success because he, in turn, will then likewise campaign for the truth again and teach a larger circle, and thereby make My Word available to many people in its purest form and for the benefit of everyone.

Anyone ordained for this mission can call himself a servant of God with full conviction because he will speak on My behalf, he will only do My will, he will be guided by Me and take every step in My company, he will only be My mouthpiece so that I can manifest Myself to people without infringing their freedom of faith or will. For this reason I need such servants devoted to Me during the last days before the end because work has to be done everywhere and constantly in order to make My pure Word accessible to people, which is blessed with My strength but which also comes directly from Me and is sent to earth in order to liberate people from misconceptions ….

Amen

Call for clarification, and it will be yours …. On whom the spirit of God falls, the one can also truthfully give answers to questions, that are put to him in spiritual regard. It is the mystery of the incarnation of God such a difficult problem for people on earth, that they can be taught never completely, unless they take even the declaration in receiving the spirit of God, so that they are understood well by the receiver of spiritual messages, but can not be forwarded to the neighbours understandably …. The man Jesus was born in a wonderful way indeed, and His birth was accompanied by heavenly appearance of any kind . Nevertheless the body was and remained earthly material for the time being; the soul came from the kingdom of light and thus came without sin into the world, and consequently God could reveal Himself by this soul, He could act, because there was nothing, what would have opposed itself as an obstacle to His work. So God and man was in the child Jesus at the same time …. everything the human eye could see was a human being, but Who gave the child life, Who attracted people and caused them to worship by His nearness, was God. The eternal Godhead self revealed Himself and was recognized by those, who were goodwill, whose hearts were capable of love and love willingly and therefore they opened themselves for the spirit of God to act in them. By the time of the birth of Jesus only people came near Him, who were guided to Him by the spirit of God, who were also appreciated by God Himself, to view the child, whom He Himself approached through the child and where He awakened the consciousness, to be in the nearness of God. But another man than such people the child would appear purely humanly, not otherwise as other children, as well as it was with His earthly body. And so the people saw Him in His youth and in later years, for He did not appear obviously with His divinity, with His being filled with the spirit of God, although He Himself always united more and more with God by His exemplary life of love, which also spiritualized His body and made it a receiving vessel for the divine spirit. But it was the man Jesus, Who Himself had to make a worthy temple of God’s spirit by activity of love, that this could conceal in Him in all fullness and could work through Him indefinitely. What He spoke, was doing miracles and even commanded the death, was God Himself, what people were seeing, was a human being …. The belief in the divine mission of the man Jesus let the people also recognize God in Him, both as a child and in His years of teaching, where these recognized Him likewise again, who were themselves the same spirit, who led a life according to the divine will and therefore also opened up to His divine being. For them, it was without doubt, that God Himself was in Him and worked through Him. But sometimes the human outer form let even arise doubts in those, because they could not understand the mystery of the incarnation of God and the mystery of the complete unity of God and man, as it can also never be completely clarified to the people, who are not spiritually lively. These would probably be able to grasp it with their soul, but it can never be purely rationally shown, as it would be necessary for a full understanding. But never and never the child Jesus can be denied the deity, because This child was worthy of the highest grace, that God Himself hid in Him, that He revealed Himself to those, who loved Him and lived according to His will.

The most formidable problem is the incarnation of God in Jesus Christ. And yet a person with childlike faith can pass over it without intellectual difficulties, it can appear simple to him precisely because he believes …. For him Jesus Christ is God, and he also believes it with full justification, for divine is that which has united with God through love. However, the fact that this union was the final aim of a human being in the first place, achieved by the man Jesus in a short time on earth, likewise remains a truth which neither the keenest intellect nor the most devout heart can deny, for in order to attain the degree of perfection which makes a soul divine, a life of love must absolutely be lived in free will, of its own accord, and that in the stage as a human being, and the will may not be influenced in any way in a certain state of constraint. An already perfect being only enters earth for the purpose of a mission. It will also fulfil this mission but never on the basis of its already high degree of maturity before its embodiment as a human being, instead, its life, like that of every other human being, must be a battle waged in freedom of will against weaknesses and faults of all kinds. He must freely want the degree of perfection which marks him as a divine being, strive for it and achieve it through loving activity, which he can also refrain from, just as he could also direct his will downwards because he can freely use his will. He must be able to be just as evil as good, just as he will be credited with every decision one day. God does not influence such a soul in any way, but neither does He allow it to fall prey to the adversary involuntarily, thus to be forced by him to apostatise from God or to act against His will. This freedom of choice also had to be granted to the man Jesus if His act of salvation was not to lose in value, just as His divinity had to be the merit of a human being striving for perfection, Who should serve as an example for the whole of humanity and inspire people to imitate His way of life …. (27.11.1947) Jesus was a living example of a life according to divine will for people, consequently it must also be possible for a human being to attain the same perfection. He was a mediator between God and people, consequently it must be possible to reach God under the assistance of Jesus Christ; thus Jesus also had to be close to people in a human way, He had to have walked the same path on earth and have an intimate relationship with both, with God and with people, a relationship which was borne by deepest love, that He felt such great love for people that He wanted to help them; but He also felt the love for the eternal Deity which God requires in order to give Him unlimited power and abundance of strength, that He united Himself with Him, but which always presupposes that Jesus was a human being Who reached His aim …. was born as a human being and ascended to heaven as God in all glory. He was in no way endowed preferentially so that He would have succeeded in His human existence without any effort and as a matter of course, rather, He had to struggle unusually against temptations of unclean spirits who knew about His mission on earth and tried to prevent it. The temptations approached Him in every way, and it took all His strength of will to withstand and to adapt His physical desires to the desiring of the spirit and the soul, for His external body was human with flesh and blood, His senses felt the beauty and charm of the earthly world to an unusual degree, and they longed for fulfilment, yet He denied it to the body out of love for needy humanity, to whom He could only bring help by sacrificing Himself, by achieving a higher degree of maturity of His soul through refrainment and renunciation, which led Him to union with God. The union with His father from eternity, however, enabled Him in the first place to embark on His mission to spread the divine teaching of love on earth and to proclaim the divine will to people, but on the other hand it also gave Him the strength to make the most difficult sacrifice a human being has ever offered to God and people on earth …. To blamelessly take upon Himself the death on the cross and to suffer unimaginable mental and physical pain out of love for humanity in order to bring help to it, which had to expect a dreadful fate in the beyond due to its great guilt of sin, and to save it from eternal condemnation, from sinking into deepest darkness. Jesus, the man, put spiritual life before earthly life, His will was stronger than His physical desire, and thus He was victorious in the battle against Himself and thereby won the highest prize …. the love of the eternal Deity, Which gave Itself to Him, Which flowed to Him without restriction and worked upon Him as strength. And He became powerful and wise, He was filled with light and strength, the essence of God completely took possession of Him. That is, body and soul shaped themselves into love and thus became divine, because the fundamental substance of the eternal Deity is love and consequently anyone who carries love within himself and thus unites himself with God, the eternal Love, has to be a divine being …. Jesus was God and man …. God was His being, man was His body, which held the divine being, love, within itself. Therefore, if one speaks of Jesus as God, then His essence is meant, the spiritual shaping of His soul, the absorption in pure, selfless love and thereby the shaping of His soul into the image of God …. And since Jesus had gained victory over Himself, His body spiritualised itself and completely subordinated itself to the will of the soul …. And thus Jesus was filled with light, flowed round by light, and after His death He ascended into heaven as the purest spirit, yet also visible to the disciples through His will …. For He had overcome death, He had redeemed the world from the state of weakness into which it had fallen through sin …. He had accomplished the work of redemption as a human being, because otherwise it would not have been a sacrificial death and would not have extinguished the immense guilt of sin into which humanity had fallen ….
