Christianity – name-christians – act – incarnation of God ….

B.D. 4420 from August 27th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Anyone who is not for Me is against Me …. and anyone who only confesses Me with his mouth and does not feel a sense of belonging to Me in his heart is likewise not of My flock, whom I will fetch home into My kingdom on the last day. The name christian is not enough to be a christian, i.e. a confessor of Me, but the thinking and acting, the inner desire to belong to Me, is what makes a person My follower in the first place, and then it makes no difference what race, what nation and what denomination he belongs to. And this is so significant, after all, it only gives an acceptable explanation for the fact that christianity is taught all over the earth, that thus there is certainly a large crowd of followers but they are still far from being christians, and thus the world is not improved by My teaching either if it is not followed, thus forming true christians. Only tactual christianity can be called christianity, and this will also produce people who provide evidence that the christian teaching is divine, for they will have a great deal of light and strength at their disposal, they will be full of wisdom and be able to accomplish things which testify to My support; they will prove that they are in union with Me and thus My teaching of love is the only right teaching which encompasses the truth. But if people are satisfied with words, if they certainly know about the christian teaching but do not live it out, they will not be entitled to the name ‘christian’, even though they are affiliated to organizations which stand up for Me and My name. I am not satisfied with empty chatter with the lips, I test the hearts and reject those who are found too easy. And I agree with those who do not recognize this christianity as a divine work, for it does not meet with My approval to use My name and disregard My will. My will, however, is that the teaching, which I conveyed to earth through the man Jesus, should be accepted in all purity and therefore also followed, so that the effect of following My teaching can become apparent and the faith and love for Me thereby strengthened. On the other hand, however, every person is free to examine, and this is truly more advisable than to reject without examination. Anyone who therefore wants to reject Me Myself because he judges those who are not true followers of Me but only name christians is also to be condemned himself, for you should all examine and keep what is best. But a serious examination will also lead to the acceptance of My teaching of love, then you will also live it out and experience its effect on yourselves. But if you reject My teaching then you also reject Me Myself, and this will not bring you any blessing, for without Me you cannot become blessed. I Myself spoke through the man Jesus to all people on earth, it was I Myself Who died for you on the cross ….

I only chose a form through which I could make Myself visible to you. Thus the man Jesus was only the mediator between Me and you insofar as I could be visible through Him if your existence was to be assured. The fact that the form, the man Jesus, first had to form Himself through a right way of life so that He could serve Me as an abode, was at the same time an example for people of the effect of rightly used will, for He showed people the path which leads to perfection. But what spoke out of Him was Me Myself, it was My word which He preached, thus My will was made known to people through the mediation of the man Jesus. And therefore He cannot be rejected if one wants to acknowledge Me as the originator of Christ’s pure teaching of love. But everyone who lives it will feel that My word is not just human speech, for he will experience the effect in himself, he will become wise and full of strength, for then he will likewise enter into association with Me like the man Jesus, Who, through His exemplary way of life, received light and strength from Me in abundance and Who therefore can be addressed as a divine being, even though He lived on earth as a human being. And therefore, again and again I will try to explain to you the mystery of God’s human manifestation in Jesus Christ, again and again I will explain to you why you should not reject Him if you want to believe in Me and attain Me. For He and I are one, and anyone who rejects Him also rejects Me, because He was embodied love, which is My fundamental substance from eternity, and thus I was in Him and My strength was expressed through Him. His word was My word, and the word was I Myself ….

Amen

Spiritual arrogance of the leaders ….

B.D. 4421 from August 28th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Spiritual arrogance does not let people accept the truth which is offered to them by Me through you. They certainly feel the divine in it but take offence at the messenger and don’t want to submit to him. Consequently, the pure truth has no effect on people which they should recognize by virtue of their ability to judge, yet they cannot reject the truth in their hearts because they feel its effect as increased knowledge and comprehensibility of that which was previously incomprehensible to them. Thus they take possession of the truth, which they utilize, but do not recognize it as such towards their fellow human beings …. they are untrue to themselves …. This is a gross sin, because against their better knowledge they reject the most precious thing that can be offered to them. And yet I must tell you that you are right to speak without shyness where it is possible. The truth can also be spread as a supposed error by first being brought to people’s attention in an adversarial sense, whereupon the individual’s thinking activity kicks in and he can then accept or reject it of his own free will and reach his decision according to his way of life …. But how blind are men in spirit, and what will-o’-the-wisp do they follow ….

(29.8.1948) They defy every right direction of their gaze and feel comfortable in darkness, and I am unable to do anything where such open resistance is offered. As soon as the veil falls from their eyes they will clearly recognize the error and blindness of those who only go through earthly life as followers and don’t care about the path they have taken. And that is why the leaders should choose the right path, for they bear a great responsibility for all who follow them. But if someone who knows the way gives them hints, because he sees that the chosen path leads away from the aim, the leaders should not pass by loftily and look down on the one advising them; they should recognize the help from above and accept it gratefully. Great things are preparing themselves, and people will then questioningly follow the effects which, without knowledge, remain incomprehensible to them. I want to bring you clarification but you don’t listen to it, I want to light a little light for you because of the coming events, for it will become very dark around you, a darkness will envelop you which only My light from the heavens can penetrate. And you try to extinguish the light, you don’t take pleasure in its glow, although you see the light and cannot render its rays ineffective …. You put it under a bushel and no-one takes pleasure in it, no-one can delight in it …. and yet it is a light from the heavens …. But I have warned you and offered you My love …. But you are free in your will, thought and action, I show you the way but do not force you to go it ….

Amen

Debates …. objections …. opposing attitude …. God's work ….

B.D. 4422 from August 29th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Don’t let yourselves be thrown into doubt by objections which betray My adversary’s spirit, for they want to challenge the truth of that which is conveyed to them as My word. They will fight against you, they will want to label you as liars, as fantasists who presume to want to hear Me, they will persuade you in such a way that you will become weak and have serious doubts yourselves which I, however, will always dispel through My word. For I hear every conversation, I know your opponents’ thoughts and the direction of every individual’s mind and will, I also know your will and your weakness of faith in the face of such an onslaught. And I will faithfully stand by you and not hand you over to the arbitrariness of hostile people, I protectively hold My hands over you and speak through you Myself where the opportunity presents itself. And they will not be able to withstand My word, for it emanates strength which puts a spell on anyone who fights against it, if I Myself offer the truth. My servants will be able to refute every objection, for I will enlighten your spirit as this is necessary for the debates which have Me and My working as their cause. Objections must be consistently refuted, the opponents must notice that the speaker is fully committed to the matter, that no wrong teachings can be opposed to him, and therefore he must also be intellectually active, and My spirit must work in him so that he speaks correctly. Hence you can face every test in this respect without worry, you need never fear that I will withdraw My support from you, you need not fear any questions either, for you will always know the right answer and truly better than the questioners who have only been taught by you in the end, even if they don’t want to acknowledge you. The knowledge you possess is so extensive that you will be able to answer every objection, and every answer will reveal spirit to the one who examines seriously and conscientiously, without prejudice and without the intention of rejecting what is unknown to him. And thus the adversary will also contribute to stimulating people’s thinking, and then much will be gained, even if people don’t want to admit that they are in error. Anyone who is of serious and good will will have his spirit enlightened, and he will realize that he is only offered pure truth through My love ….

Amen

Effect of the divine word …. influx of power …. exhortation ….

B.D. 4423 from August 30th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

The direct influx of spiritual strength in the form of My word has an extremely beneficial effect on the human being’s soul, even though he does not physically feel it. It is a state of spiritual freedom, for the soul no longer feels bound by the body, it does not feel the heaviness of earth, it temporarily dwells in spiritual spheres and sees and hears there what it cannot render to the physical human being, thus it would be incomprehensible to the human being’s intellect and therefore is not conveyed to him either. For this reason the soul often feels that its stay on earth is a torment, it can only move back with difficulty and has to struggle a lot because earthly things burden it and it longs for the eternal home. Yet the soul also has to go through this hardship as compensation for the grace of being in contact with the spiritual kingdom and being fed by Me Myself with strength, with nourishment which ensures its eternal stay in those spheres. As long as it lives on earth the heaviness of earth will also burden a person who strives spiritually upwards. If the soul now succeeds in making the body insensitive to suffering and hardship, so that the body also despises earthly things and turns towards the spiritual kingdom, then the human being will rise above everything and bear earthly life with equanimity and peace of mind and regard it as a short transitional station for eternity. And My word helps the human being to achieve this …. the strength which has taken on form in order to also be able to be effective for the earth-bound …. For this reason you should often read My word and take it into yourselves, and then the body will also feel its beneficial effect, then soul and body will be nourished and draw strength from the soul’s nourishment; the human being will become strong and resilient, he will be able to do any work and no longer feel earthly life to be so difficult. And therefore I always and constantly admonish you to let Me speak to you and to make more use of My gift from heaven …. I give to you but you must also accept what I offer to you, your heart must open and eagerly let My word flow into it and you will obviously feel the effect …. For I want to help you, earthly as well as spiritually, and reveal the right remedy to you, but you must use it without doubting. Receive the strength from Me which is offered to you without restriction, refresh yourselves with My word and accept the evidence of My love, for I know about all your needs and want to help you because I love you ….

Amen

Battle of God and satan for souls of men …. lure ….

B.D. 4424 from September 1st 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Choose between Me and My adversary …. Both woo and fight for your soul and for your will, so that it turns to the one who wants to possess it. And you are free to surrender to My wooing or to let the enemy become the victor. And since everyone fights with different weapons, everyone will also have different success. Those whose hearts are willing to love will turn to Me, for they recognize Me as the God Who is love in Himself. But those who are devoid of love don’t recognize Me either, but they will certainly strive towards the adversary of their own accord, for his battle for their souls consists of offering pleasures and pleasures of this world …. most people will succumb to this means of battle. However, I will never appear together with My adversary, thus My courtship for people’s love will never be connected with enticements of the world which completely captivate weak or unbelieving people and thereby deprive them of the strength to be lovingly active. People who succumb to the enemy and adversary take pity on Me, for I know the arts of the one who wants to pull you into the abyss, and I try to come to your aid, I speak to you so that you will recognize My voice and let yourselves be held back by it from the enticements of the world. But I do not force you, you must give yourselves to Me and thus grant Me the right and the power to oust the adversary from your circle of vision. You must acknowledge Me as your lord and carry My image deep in your heart, i.e. you must feel attracted to everything that means love. Then you will be considered My followers, My successors, and you can rightly call yourselves ‘My own’. And as ‘My own’ you will also always feel My father’s hand, the adversity of the last days will not press you as much as it seems, for you can burden Me with everything that presses you, I will help you carry it.

(2.9.1948) You should not fear any opposing power if you believe in Me. For I am truly stronger than the one who is My adversary, who wants to win you over. He cannot harm you if you don’t want it, if you are turned towards Me in your heart. His power will only appear when the human being detaches himself from Me and stands masterless in the world, then he will appear as lord and cast his spell over you. But he already tempts you before then, and you must not succumb to these temptations, for what My adversary holds before your eyes, with which he wants to tempt you, is far from Me, and you must turn your back on Me if you want to gain his possessions. And I want to warn you against valuing these worldly goods more highly than Me and My presence …. Then you will be lost to Me and he will have won you. But if you direct your gaze towards Me, upwards, a gentle radiance will delight your eye, it will touch your hearts and fill you with love for Me, and then you will despise the world’s goods, then My adversary will have lost all power over you and I will have won you for ever ….

Amen

Reference to natural disaster, destruction and living situation after ….

B.D. 4425 from September 2nd 1948, taken from Book No. 52

The world has already experienced great things, and it will have to experience even greater things. You humans are not yet aware of the time in which you stand, and you have even less idea of the time you are approaching. You pay no attention to the indications and when you listen to them you do not believe what is announced to you. And thus you will watch in horror the events which will shortly take place and draw people’s attention to themselves. And you will constantly hope for a remedy because you cannot believe that your earthly life shall continue without all pleasures. Yet earthly help will only be granted to you if you betray Me, and only a few will remain faithful to Me, take a difficult life upon themselves and realize that the time of the end has come. These few have My love because they don’t allow themselves to be blinded by My adversary, they renounce earthly possessions and earthly pleasures, they take up the cross and carry it until the end, until I come to fetch them home into My kingdom. But the others believe they can force life, for they don’t believe in Me, they don’t believe in fate, just as they don’t believe in life after death and in having to answer to a judge Who knows all their thoughts, their deeds and their will. They do not fear this judge because they do not believe in Him …. But He will already make himself heard shortly, even though My voice will not be recognized there either because the will to do so is lacking and the adversary likewise harasses people and presents life to them as beautiful and tries to influence them into purely material thinking. And he will be able to achieve great success, for people are far more his followers than Mine and therefore don’t want to hear about the end either. And yet, they, too, will be horrified by the magnitude of the destruction which will take place through the elements of nature. But hardened hearts will not be touched by it, and whether My word is also held up to them, whether they are seriously pointed to the end, they reject a divine power, they only regard it as a natural phenomenon and attach no significance to this My intervention. For them the final admonition is unsuccessful, they sink ever deeper and in the end will belong to those who will be cast into darkness by Me, for they don’t take hold of the hand which reaches out to them, and thus they will fall into the abyss again for a long time ….

Amen

The earthly kingdom and its rulers …. earthly fulfilment of duty – spiritual work ….

B.D. 4426 from September 3rd 1948, taken from Book No. 52

If you are devoted to the world, then you are also devoted to the one who rules the world insofar as he makes people slaves to their instincts, which are only directed towards worldly pleasures and material goods. And then you can only with difficulty free yourselves from his rule. But if you establish the connection with the spiritual kingdom then you make yourselves subject to Me, the father of eternity, Who truly wants to give you other goods than the transience of the earthly world. Although you live an earthly life and have to meet its requirements, you should also fulfil your duties to the best of your ability, you should by no means sink into idleness and believe that you serve Me by withdrawing into solitude and neglecting earthly activity; You should be active and create and work for the benefit of your fellow human beings; your earthly work should consist of constructive activity which benefits your fellow human beings and thus you should be active in serving neighbourly love, even though the work is a duty imposed on you. Yet you should not start anything without Me, always request My blessing for it, and then I will also bless your work, I will help you to master it, so that you can meet all requirements and yet also fulfil your spiritual task, which is the purpose and aim of your earthly life. But you should never put the worldly above the spiritual …. Every excessive worry is detrimental to the soul, just as it is unnecessary, for I will take over every concern for your physical well-being if you diligently care for your soul and put this concern before everything else. You should not favour the earthly kingdom and its rulers too much if you don’t want to run the risk of becoming superficial towards the spiritual kingdom, but if you strive for this first then you will also be considered earthly, and truly, better than you can manage yourselves, for I take fatherly care of My own as soon as they see their father of eternity in Me, Whom they love and want to serve Him ….

Amen

Right and false representatives …. "He who hears My servants hears Me …."

B.D. 4427 from September 5th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Anyone who opposes My own fights against Me, for My servants also emerge from the ranks of My own who are to bring you My word as a gift from their lord. If you do not listen to My servants it is a rejection of Me, Who comes to you through My servants in the word. You cannot separate My representatives on earth from Me, only if you have obvious evidence that something is brought to you by the enemy of your souls may you reject it. This is obviously recognizable from the gifts themselves which are offered to you …. if they lack love, if they lead to the world, thus if they try to push you away from Me as the eternal deity, then your rejection is justified. Yet My chosen servants will never offer you anything which could cast doubt on My mission, for even the slightest test indicates a divine gift …. it only radiates love, it teaches love and is offered to you by My love. But anyone who pretends to acknowledge Me, to believe in Me, to belong to My church, yet does not want to acknowledge My direct word, is far removed from Me, for how will he speak of the father if he does not recognize His voice? And I truly speak clearly, so that every willing person must recognize Me, and only the one who is not willing to believe that I Myself speak to people will not recognize Me. He can acquire this faith through serious reflection, thus the will must first be present to open himself if I Myself approach him with a rich treasure of grace. I will not condemn a rejection after careful examination, even if the human being makes a wrong judgment if this is the result of his serious examination, yet again and again I have to emphasize that the human being then also rejects Me Myself, thus his attitude towards Me is such that he cannot recognize the truth. I have chosen servants from My own and you shall hear them, and you will also be taught by them what the characteristics of truth are and when you humans can feel in possession of the truth. For they speak on My behalf, they speak on My behalf, and if you listen to them, you listen to Me. But you should not lend your ear to those who preach My word but have received it in a distorted form and pass it on in a distorted form. For if they were My true representatives they would work together with you, My servants, they would receive the right knowledge directly from My hand through you and also recognize it as such. However, if they oppose you they cannot be My rightful representatives …. and if they fight you they are servants of satan, who uses every mask to suppress the truth. The truth will speak for itself, the truth has to be recognized if the human being’s will is turned towards Me, thus towards the eternal truth. And therefore everyone who opposes you and does not want to accept you for what you are is to be regarded as My adversary …. My disciples, whom I Myself have chosen to spread the gospel throughout the world ….

Amen

Crossroads …. tests of the faithful …. inner conflicts ….

B.D. 4428 from September 6th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

You, My faithful, will also be led before crossroads and must now decide which path you want to take. For you, too, will not be spared the testing of your will, you, too, can only mature through constant struggle unless you work with increased strength of love, then the decision will not be difficult for you either, for you clearly and distinctly recognize which path is the right one and your will has the strength to take it even if it appears stony and thorny to you. Increased strength of love is the compensation, and thus the activity of love will always have a visible effect on you, you will master everything if you live in love. But a life of love is lived by every person who does not place himself at the centre but has an open eye for his environment and helps where he is needed; a life of love is lived by every person who feels urged to do good, who seeks and finds his purpose in life in carrying out unselfish works of love, who thinks well, speaks well and acts well …. i.e. who adapts his thinking, speaking and acting to the eternal order, which aims at preservation and building up in the divine sense. Every human being has a feeling for what is good within himself, for he will always feel the effects of both good and bad thoughts and actions inflicted on him by his fellow human beings, he will be able to distinguish very well between what makes him happy and what harms him. And thus he should always apply the standard, and his feeling will always instruct him what is good and what is bad. And anyone who has the will to act well will truly not fall into wrong thinking. The fact that I also let you, My faithful, get into inner conflicts is necessary because you also have to be purified of self-love which sometimes clouds clear thinking and holds you back from loving activity. But you shall grow and serve Me as an instrument in the coming time. Therefore you must discard everything that still hinders My constant dwelling in your hearts. Every suffering, every inner struggle is a preparation so that I Myself can take possession of you in order to work through you. You will often be at a crossroads, but I will always stand invisibly by your side and lovingly push you onto the right path …. I help you to overcome self-love and to rise up in restless neighbourly love …. in order to shape yourselves into love, so that I can completely enter your hearts and dwell therein ….

Amen

Antichrist …. Brutal laws ….

B.D. 4429 from September 7th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

A visible power will control you which will refuse to acknowledge an invisible Power …. And this power will provoke your last test of faith, for it will be fighting against Me and will also want to educate you into becoming My adversaries. And this is why you will require your entire strength of faith in order to resist it. Many will bow down under the sceptre of the ruler promising them golden mountains but will demand the surrender of all faith in return, of all spiritual knowledge, the acknowledgement of his power and sovereignty and the denial of an eternal Creator, of a loving and righteous God, Who will call people to account one day for their will, thoughts and actions. And thus he will oppose Me, and although the last battle will not last long it will be very difficult for My believers because they will be placed under inhuman pressure which will make professing Christ incredibly difficult for them. Yet the knowledge of the pure truth, My obvious help and the hope of My coming and life in paradise on the new earth will give you the strength to persevere and to defy every onslaught on part of the worldly authority. You have My Word that I will not let you remain in adversity, you can be firmly convinced of that. I know My Own and will support every one of them if only they rely on Me, if only they believe in Me. But the one who will come will dazzle people with his intellectual sharpness, his comprehensive knowledge, with his easy-going conduct towards other rulers, and they all will grant him the right of organisational activities with the ultimate goal of displacing all spiritual schools of thought.

For he will try to portray spiritual striving as the wrongly applied energy of life, which should be used for the construction and improvement of earthly requirements. And he will find followers everywhere, who will acknowledge him and likewise proceed against all spiritual work. And thus My servants on earth will have a difficult time. At first the intention will be to take all means which enable you to be spiritually active away from you, but you will also be individually persecuted and will have to give account to the earthly authorities about your convictions and activities. Furthermore, you will also be plunged into earthly hardship as a result of laws which seem, and indeed are, extraordinarily hard and brutal for the believer if I was not going to manifestly stand by you and sustain you by spiritual means. And you will feel My obvious help, you will sense that I Am with you and know the hardship of every individual person which I will remedy when the time is right. The Antichrist will come and with him all the signs of the approaching end. For as soon as the battle of faith commences you can be certain that the end will not be long in coming, because the battle of faith will be waged with such severity and so brutally that I Myself will have to come in order to rescue My Own from deepest distress and lift them up into the realm of peace …. And then the last Judgment will happen and My adversary’s power will be broken for a long time ….

Amen

Value of spiritual teachings ….

B.D. 4430 from September 9th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

You are not yet able to assess the value of spiritual instructions because you are still too entangled in earthly matter; however, upon entering eternity you will realize what possessions you call your own or how terribly poor you are, for only with spiritual values can you create the life in the spiritual world which signifies beatitude. What you can freely have on earth because My greater than great love offers you something which no human being is denied, whether he deserves it or not, you must also attain in the spiritual kingdom if you do not already enter the beyond in a state of spiritual maturity. And this achievement requires great willpower, which you then no longer possess because you have not practiced love enough on earth, which earns you increased willpower. Now you certainly also have the opportunity to take part in spiritual instructions, however, only ever on condition that your will expresses itself in loving activity towards fellow suffering souls, that you want to help them; and precisely this will will be lacking for you, for the adversity you find yourselves in, which you enter into the spiritual kingdom empty and bare, only lets you think of your own fate, and you pay no attention to the hardship of other souls. And therefore your spiritual wealth can only rarely increase unless you receive a lot of help from people on earth or beings of light who were in close contact with you and try to pull you up. Nevertheless, even then your will is still decisive. But if you are already instructed on earth and thus blessed with spiritual possessions upon entering the kingdom of the beyond, then you will only ever increase them, even though you constantly give them away …. For the will to love is exceedingly strong in you and expresses itself in the distribution of what makes you happy ….

As long as you walk on earth everything earthly-material is more important to you than spiritual teachings, and yet the latter represent a far greater value because they are imperishable, whereas earthly goods can be destroyed or lost from today to tomorrow. Therefore you must imagine the transience of that which is desirable to you in order to learn to despise it, in order to reduce your desire for it. Accordingly, the value of spiritual goods will increase for you if you hope for a blissful life in the spiritual kingdom, treasures which you can take with you into eternity and which can no longer be taken away from you. If you now have the extraordinary grace of being taught directly from the spiritual kingdom, you will have an overwhelming wealth at your disposal which you can already utilize on earth. Love must drive you to share it with your neighbour, to want to impart the same to him. You should present your treasures to the world and offer them to people who are in need and in spiritual distress. For they are poor and you should give them what you have in abundance, for I want to help them to enter the blessing of spiritual possessions, so that they will hear the truth through your mouth through which I thus express Myself, because I want the soul not to enter the spiritual kingdom poor and naked at its death ….

Amen

Reference to spiritual convulsion (Rome?) …. right church of Christ ….

B.D. 4431 from September 10th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

You humans on earth have to expect a great spiritual shock, for I want to show you that My arm also reaches where you believe to have built on solid foundations. I want to disturb you from your complacent rest so that you will become agitated and seriously ask yourselves what I intend and want to tell you through this visible sign of My displeasure with your building, which seems to you to be extremely good and sublime. In the last days I need workers who are diligently active for Me and My kingdom; I need servants who have a living faith and make the working of My spirit in them possible through a life of love according to My will. I need good shepherds for My sheep and thus eager representatives of My word, which is to be conveyed to people in all purity and which I therefore convey to My servants on earth by direct means so that it can be conveyed to people unadulterated. And this is the work of My servants, the labourers in My vineyard, for the time of harvest has come, as it is proclaimed in word and scripture. And thus I obviously work outside of those who believe to be My representatives on earth, and I Myself have chosen My right representatives who, however, do not recognize the former as My emissaries and therefore do not want to accept My word. And therefore it is necessary for Me to manifest Myself through an external sign so that people will become suspicious and reflective ….

(12.9.1948) For it is of urgent necessity that people think about the worthlessness of what people have built if it does not correspond to My will. They should think about the form in which I want to see My will fulfilled, what is of rightful value before Me and what alone is advantageous for the soul for eternity. They should abandon preconceived opinions, traditionally adopted spiritual knowledge which is of no value because it is characterized by externalities which cover the core and make it unrecognizable. It has to be clarified what the characteristics of the church are which I Myself founded on earth, it has to be illuminated from earthly teachings which are to be considered erroneous because they make the affiliation to My church dependent on the affiliation to a certain denomination, which never corresponds to My will. Everything that is organized is the work of human beings, for My church is only a purely spiritual building, it has its foundation in thinking and striving, in wanting and acting according to My will and will never be outwardly recognizable in any other way than in active loving activity and the resulting recognition and understanding of everything I demand of you humans to believe, which I submit to you and convey to you as spiritual knowledge mentally or through the inner word …. The visible working of My spirit in the human being …. enlightened thinking and convinced faith …. is the sure characteristic of the church which I Myself founded, but which is more likely to be found outside a church organisation, although it can also make people happy within such an organization, as long as they understand the core …. My christian doctrine of love …. of everything else, but then they will also realize how little value any ceremony as well as the entire worldly-style structure is for the soul’s development, indeed, it is often even a hindrance, because profound inner immersion and striving for heartfelt union with Me is impeded by externalities which captivate people’s eyes and senses ….

The human being who has recognized the happiness that lies in the intimate bond with Me, who has found his way into the spiritual kingdom and entered into mental contact with its inhabitants, will never again take pleasure in actions which are obviously carried out. He will turn his back on them because he recognizes and feels them as not wanted by Me. And this is to be recorded as spiritual progress which I want to help all people to achieve by directing everyone’s eyes to an event which clearly reveals My hand …. I will lower a doubt into their hearts which they shall deal with if they are of good will and seek the truth. I will shake the foundation, and good for him who recognizes the language of God in it ….. He will gain if he gives, for he receives precious gifts and exchanges worthless goods for them; he joins My church, which can only be understood purely spiritually ….

Amen

Judgment day …. closed gates to the afterlife ….

B.D. 4432 from September 13th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Whether you live to see the last day is of decisive importance for eternity. For on that day there will only be living and dead, thus only people who will enter eternal life or be damned. Then there will no longer be a death which can only be addressed as a purely physical death, where the soul, although imperfect, enters spiritual spheres where it can still develop further upwards. On the contrary, on the last day the gates will remain closed in the kingdom of the beyond, for then there will only be living people who are transferred to the new earth, thus do not taste bodily death, and dead people who are devoured by the earth, i.e. who find their bodily death in the work of destruction and whose souls experience re-embodiment into solid matter. And thus the last day on this earth has come, which signifies an end for all spiritual beings dwelling on earth and where a judgement takes place, where everything that lives on earth as a human being will be called to account …. This is the day which has been proclaimed since the beginning of this redemption epoch, which seers and prophets foretold, which is doubted by all who do not believe and therefore also do not have the right knowledge. It is the day when every guilt will find its atonement and when there will probably be no human being apart from My own who will not be found guilty. Yet for the believers this day will be an end to all earthly adversity, for them it will be a day of triumph where they will see Me in all glory and be raptured from earth; but for the others it will be a day of terror, for they cannot escape their fate, they have no faith to call for Me in their adversity. And thus they only see certain death before their eyes and don’t know that they are now banished from My proximity for an infinitely long time, because they in no way acquired the right to My kingdom, whose ruler I am, which can only accept souls which have accepted My fundamental nature, thus have become love. And all earthly terrors precede the last day, for I still want to admonish people in the last hour to stretch out their hands towards Me so that I can seize them before they sink into deepest darkness …. before they are banished from My proximity for eternal times. Everyone can still come to Me if he makes good use of the last time, and everyone is entitled to unmeasured grace, yet I don’t force anyone to make use of My grace but leave everyone his freedom. But the last day will be a reckoning for everyone …. Love and bliss for My own and death and destruction for all who belong to My adversary, for they will be cast down into darkness and have to atone for their sins according to divine justice ….

Amen

Final battle …. Frankly professing Christ before the world …..

B.D. 4433 from September 15th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

War will be declared on everything of a spiritual nature during the last days before the end. Thereby you will recognise which hour has struck on the clock of the world and that the day is drawing to a close. Then you can expect considerable commotion as a result of the rigorous measures taken by the worldly authorities. You will be beleaguered with questions and threats about your attitude towards Christ and faith in general. They will not shy away from watching you, from eavesdropping on your conversations and will take you to court for your words and actions. That is the time when you must profess Me openly and speak without fear about how you think and feel about Me. This open admission is what I require as evidence of your affiliation with Me. I Myself certainly know how you think and feel in your heart; nevertheless, it is a final battle in which a separation of the goats from the sheep shall take place. And this final battle must be openly conducted so that the battle itself becomes evident, so that the opponent’s guilt clearly emerges before the world in order to push the undecided into a decision due to the believers’ as well as their enemies’ conduct. The battle will only last a short time and will happen everywhere, albeit in different ways. Heartlessness will always fight against love, the material world will mock and intimidate the spiritual world, two camps will be distinctly recognisable wherever the teaching of Christ has been accepted and where the divine teaching of love is the principle of what is preached to people and what they are required to believe. For this reason the apostasy from Me will be clearly discernible in the whole world; but where the Christian teaching of love is widespread the battle of faith will proceed extremely ferociously, and that will be the end. At this time you humans have no idea how the forthcoming events will proceed and, therefore, it seems incredible to you; nevertheless, it will happen as I proclaim to you through My spirit, and the time is so near that it would scare you were you to know the day and hour of destruction …. And yet you should not worry, for your loyalty to Me will also assure you My full protection and supply of any strength so that you will be able to stand firm, and the knowledge of it will make you confident and strong in faith, so that you will survive the time, particularly since I will shorten the days, so that you will become blessed ….

Amen

Ability of God's servants to see through people …. sharp judgement ….

B.D. 4434 from September 16th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

You will recognize the spirit of the one who turns away from Me, for all signs will be noticeable to you as soon as a person is not united with Me in love. And thus you will not be deceived by the words his mouth utters to conceal his true feelings. You will find little understanding if you hold spiritual conversations, you will be able to detect disbelief towards all predictions and also towards those teachings which are intended to contribute towards explaining the difficult time of suffering. For anyone who is distant from Me lives too much in earthly life and does not find any spiritual explanation credible, he does not live in contact with the spiritual world and his thoughts are little influenced by knowing forces because he does not grant them access. You will always recognize such people and find little appeal, and no matter how much they listen to you, you will still have little success, little will to pay attention to My word by living it out. And thus they will not be able to convince themselves of the truth of My word either, and the spiritual success will be zero. Yet you should therefore not grow weary and not take offence at the fact that you are not listened to as My word requires …. Your vision will become sharper, you will be able to judge the individual person’s level of development, you will gain the ability to see through a mask and thus not be deceived by beautiful words or a pious nature, because nothing escapes your gaze and you know full well how the connection with Me and a life of love affects a person’s nature. Moreover, only a few will be true listeners and doers of My word, but the majority will be indifferent towards My gift from above, otherwise the spiritual low would be remedied very quickly. But where the will is lacking there is little success. Nevertheless, I instruct you to mention what I offer you so that no-one will be able to say that he was not warned, for only through the word can the spell be broken, only through the word from above can the human being be prompted to think and guided onto a different path. The word itself possesses strength but requires the human being’s will in order to take effect; and where My word …. the emanation of Myself …. remains without impression, there is truly no other means unless great earthly adversity causes a person to establish the bond with Me through prayer. Then I will approach the person once again through visible help and make Myself known to him. And then My word will no longer remain without impression. Therefore spread it everywhere, for the great adversity is inevitable, and what the word cannot accomplish can still create adversity, and you humans will bless it if you have still found Me through it ….

Amen

Justification of the extraordinary work of God …. spiritual wealth ….

B.D. 4435 from September 17th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Open yourselves to receive My emanation of light, listen to My word …. When I manifest Myself to you by working extraordinarily, when I convey My word to you from above, you must know that this act is necessary for your own sake. You must know that you will then be in a danger in which I want to warn you audibly and help you, furthermore, you must know that something will then prepare itself of which I want to inform you for the sake of your souls. For everything that happens is only about your soul, about its upward development. If it proceeds in such a way that your earthly life is fully and completely evaluated, then you will not need extraordinary evidence of My love and grace, because through a way of life according to My will you bask in My love and grace and recognize and believe in Me. But if your development comes to a standstill which all too soon turns into a step backwards, then your attention must be drawn to the idleness of your life, then admonitions and warnings must be sent to you from above, and so that you pay attention to them I will work extraordinarily among you …. I speak from above and thus bestow an extraordinary gift of grace upon you, because I take pity on your adversity and My love for you is exceedingly great. Therefore listen to Me: Don’t value your earthly life too highly but think about what will happen after death and let it be said to you that you won’t live long on earth but that the time is only short until I Myself put an end to everything that lives on earth. All your striving on earth will be in vain, you will not be able to keep material goods, yet you can still gather many spiritual goods in this short time, and these are a wealth which will remain with you, which you can take with you into eternity, which makes your departure from this world easy, which makes your soul unspeakably happy and with which you can work when you have entered the kingdom of the beyond where true life only begins. Gather these goods by listening to My word commanded to you from above and live accordingly …. Open your heart, let Me Myself enter in the word, grasp the spirit of it by uniting yourselves with Me in thought and request enlightenment from Me, stay united with Me through prayer and loving activity, and thus you will live out My word …. you will be active in thinking of Me and your activity will correspond to My will …. you will perform works of unselfish neighbourly love which will earn you the right reward; you will mature in your soul and your earthly life will not have been in vain ….

Amen

Relinquishing the world …. Fulfilment of earthly duties and the blessing of God ….

B.D. 4436 from September 19th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

What does the world offer you? If you really think about it, it only offers things which make your earthly life more pleasant for a short time but which have no lasting value. And if you consider that you could be called from this earth any day then you work, from a worldly point of view, just for one day, because tomorrow could already be your last day. But even a long earthly life cannot be compared to eternity and it is simply unwise to provide for oneself for this limited time and not to consider eternity. But not until you occupy yourselves with thoughts about life after death can you know that you are chasing after illusive possessions and then you will understand the spiritual aspirations of those who don’t see the earth as an end in itself but as a means to an end. And then you too will strive for the truth, for enlightenment and for Me, Who can impart all that to you.

But one thing you should not fail to do: to appeal to Me to become your support and adviser, that I should take care of you and continue to guide you during the course of your life, that you choose Me and for My sake relinquish the world, i.e. that you have no great expectations to live a life of external comfort but that you, deep inside of yourself, live your life with Me, away from the world. This detachment is imperative, just as it is imperative that you take notice of the pure truth which, when you receive it externally, worldly people cannot offer you. If you entrust yourselves to Me I will walk with you and also ease your earthly labour because no one who works for Me and My kingdom shall be harmed. You shall indeed do your duty, that is, take up your position that has been allocated to you but who blesses your worldly labour if I don’t?

You cannot automatically enforce your success and if My will opposes it you are helpless even though you are laboriously and constantly working. Alternatively, I can favour your work and help you to accomplish it. I do, however, ask that you accept My gift from above, that you give it your whole attention and help to pass it on. Then you can live completely carefree because I will take care of every problem. First carry out your spiritual work and everything you do to accomplish your earthly allocated task will be blessed, because I truly provide better for you than the earthly world …. But I will not change My prerequisite that I as Father, will give you, My children, everything that you require spiritually and earthly ….

Amen

Disciples of the end time …. earthly relationship …. God's worry about family ….

B.D. 4437 from September 20th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Just as the disciples had to separate from their families, from house and farm, in order to follow Me, so the last disciples must also be prepared to give up everything if they hear the gentle call in their hearts to work for Me. Their love for Me must be so great that they will not prefer any earthly bond to Me, only then can they work as My true disciples on My behalf. As long as they are still bound by earth they cannot hear the inner voice which, however, is absolutely necessary in order to spread My word, in order to be able to teach their fellow human beings. Nothing may be dearer to you than My word, the expression of My love for you, and you must gladly and joyfully and at all times be willing to hear My word, directly or also indirectly. The more you have gained insight into the spiritual, into the eternal truth, the more you will understand that you must completely give yourselves to Me if you want to serve Me as an instrument, for every connection between you and the material world prevents Me from working through you. And thus you also have an explanation about the problem of how far My servants should remain free from firm ties which do not apply to spiritual striving, thus do not strive to achieve a common spiritual aim. My disciples had to leave their wives and children in order to follow Me, and I blessed them for it ….

(21.9.1948) Anyone who has Me as his aim must not send his eyes backwards, anyone who strives towards the spiritual kingdom has overcome the world and can therefore also calmly leave the world without harming or damaging his fellow human beings. For then I will take over the care for his own, whom he has looked after until now. Then I will also make his earthly task easy for him and only assign it to him to such an extent that he can do spiritual work at the same time, i.e. inform his fellow human beings of the purpose and aim of earthly life. If I need My disciples for this, this task is their most important, but then they should confidently relinquish what could prevent them from carrying out this work. They shall set themselves free and now proclaim My word as My true disciples and be without worry …. But anyone who loves the world more than Me is not suitable as My disciple in the last days, for he cannot serve two masters, he cannot pay tribute to the world and strive towards Me at the same time; the separation must first be completed before I can accept him as My servant who will no longer backslide and for whom My goods offer full compensation for the world’s goods. But as long as there is still something which is placed before Me I cannot obviously work in and on him, and therefore he must have completely overcome the world in order to be a true disciple for Me in the last days before the end ….

Amen

Demonic influence on light bearers …. fight against truth ….

B.D. 4438 from September 21st 1948, taken from Book No. 52

The demonic influence is particularly strong where the truth threatens to break through, and that is why you are often plagued by thoughts which these beings let flow towards you and which are intended to make you unfit to receive or pass on the truth. Light and shadow are always together, the battle of light against darkness always takes place, and the human being’s will determines which forces will win the day. Where there is light, i.e. truth, the dark beings also crowd together to extinguish it, to displace truth through lies and error. And this has the effect that every spiritual work is made difficult for the bearers of light as soon as they themselves do not muster the strong will to be constantly active for God and His kingdom. Then a light bearer draws strength from God and can resist every influence from the demonic side, then he is stronger than that strength, then he has the spiritual light as a protective wall around him and can resist every influence, every wrong thought. The strength of will must never weaken, then even the demonic forces will have no effect. Yet a bearer of truth will always feel the proximity of these beings which fight against the truth insofar as the spiritual work is more difficult, that inhibitions and obstacles influence it and the human being must again and again request strength anew from God and thus join God ever more intimately if he does not want to become weak and leave victory to the demonic forces. Yet he will never remain without help, for once the light can be guided to earth there are countless beings of light ready to defend him, and anyone who has once offered his services to God will also find a faithful helper and advisor in Him Who will never abandon him to the enemy but protect him against his influence ….

Thought material …. emanations of spiritual beings …. will-o'-the-wisp ….

B.D. 4439 from September 22nd 1948, taken from Book No. 52

How you utilize the thoughts you receive is decisive for your development. Light and dark beings try to influence you mentally, forces which are full of truthful knowledge and those which oppose everything that is truth, partly out of their own ignorance, but partly also out of evil motives, in order to destroy everything that signifies light and strength. These beings now fight for the possession of your will, they seek to transfer their thoughts to you; these play around you like waves, and your will now accepts them or rejects them, i.e., the heart takes them up and forwards them to the brain where they are processed, thus they are called to the human being’s memory if he wants to utilize them …. or he rejects them by not first feeding them to the brain for processing, thus he drops them. The thought only becomes conscious when the intellect deals with it; yet the human being himself is not the originator of the thought but it is emanations from the spiritual kingdom which can touch the human being as rays of light or also as a deceptive light which then accompanies him as a shadow, that he thus walks in darkness. But the human being does not feel darkness because, as long as he does not walk in the light, he turns to will-o’-the-wisps, thus he believes to be in the light which, however, spreads no light, radiates no warmth, which illuminates nothing but is only a blinding light. If the thought material is now to be utilized, then it turns out what effect it has, for the right light, the true thoughts, will ignite and let a little light flare up again everywhere, whereas a dazzling light has no strength to give off a glow but is well accepted by people who walk in darkness because they don’t know the bright, radiant light of truth and have not yet felt its effect on themselves. And the thought material can now be worked with, whether it flows from the knowing spiritual world or from the forces of darkness, only it will have a different effect on the distributing and the receiving person. Whoever passes on true thought material will always receive more and more, whether he also constantly gives it away. And his soul will develop upwards, it will stand in ever brighter light, recognize everything and understand everything …. for light has an exceedingly beneficial effect. But anyone who passes on erroneous thought material will still walk in darkness and feel that he is not bringing any light into this darkness, only believing to be temporarily in the light through the flashing of will-o’-the-wisps, only to fall into even deeper darkness afterwards. He will remain without understanding despite the supply of thought material, the darkness around him will not recede until he is touched by the rays of a right light, until he accepts the mental inspirations from the kingdom of light, thus surrenders himself to the influence of knowing beings which alone can impart light and truth to him ….

Purpose of divine revelations ….

B.D. 4440 from September 22nd 1948, taken from Book No. 52

The eternal deity reveals Itself to you humans in Its infinite love and mercy. These revelations are of such great importance that you servants of God on earth should use all your strength …. to spread them. They are a sign of God’s constant concern for His creatures, but they are also an unbroken chain of suggestions to help people find themselves and enter into the divine will. (23.9.1948) The divine revelations encompass knowledge which reaches into all areas and which is so extensive because the understanding for everything is to be awakened in the human being so that no gap of knowledge can raise doubts into the pure truth. For it is God’s will that people should live in truth in order to learn to recognize and love their father and creator of eternity and to submit to Him of their own free will, so that the original relationship between Him and His living creations, which signifies unlimited beatitude for the latter, will be re-established. The human being also always has the ability to recognize divine revelations as such, however, this always presupposes his will, and the will should be stimulated by conveying these revelations to people in a way which appears supernatural and which should make them think; their attention must be drawn to it and thus to the spiritual as a whole, because at the time of his earthly change the human being allows himself to be captivated by matter and spiritual territory is avoided by him due to ignorance and often wrong attitude towards God. However, interest can be awakened through instructions and teachings and thus also the announcement of God’s visible activity through a human being, which, however, is intended for all people and has significance for all people. They must be made aware of the connection between God and human beings so that they will enter into the right relationship with Him of their own accord and now be able to recognize both God’s working and the teachings imparted to them and, through the knowledge of His will, shape themselves in such a way as is necessary to re-establish the original relationship …. to be true children of the father with light and strength and thereby wise and powerful beings themselves who can create and shape according to their own will, which is then also the will of God ….

Extent of the work of destruction ….

B.D. 4441 from September 24th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

The extent of the act of destruction as a result of God’s will is as yet inconceivable to you humans, for it will surpass anything that has ever happened before. Countries and oceans will change, rivers will burst their banks and thus scenes will be created which make people believe that they have been transported into other regions, which in itself will cause indescribable chaos because people will no longer be able to find each other. They will restlessly wander about until strong-minded people try to establish order and take care of the weak. The adversity will be so great that it can only be endured by love, and where one will actively help the other relief and help will soon be felt, which will clearly be granted to them from above. Thus, anyone who turns to God and calls upon Him in his heart will receive help, for God will then so clearly demonstrate His love and omnipotence that those of little faith will find it easy to gain a firm belief, and this time is a time of grace for the unbeliever, when he can still easily change himself in view of the occurrences which are based on the strength of faith. These occurrences will provide food for thought to everyone, yet only someone willing to believe will derive benefit from it, whereas the others will only ever speak of coincidences and face the immense adversity embittered, rejecting a Creator or condemning His actions. The magnitude of the disaster cannot bring them to their senses, they will try to find a natural explanation for everything and entirely reject spiritual correlations. They also remain hard and insensitive towards their fellow human beings’ experiences and won’t shy away from improving their own situation at the expense of people who are too weak to defend themselves.

There will be hardship wherever God has spoken and He will speak wherever the spiritual adversity is greatest, so that the survivors will receive a warning signal which will enable them to utilise the time until the end, and to also bring the people of the unaffected countries to their senses in view of the disaster which is too immense to be ignored. For the whole of humanity will be gripped by fear that the natural disaster might repeat itself and result in complete destruction of the earth. This will in fact happen but not immediately after the natural disaster. All the same, this fear is beneficial for many people since the thought of a sudden end and a life after death will come alive in many of them and can result in a change of lifestyle. The world will helpfully want to intervene yet won’t be able to help as much as is needed. Nevertheless, every human being who is willing to love and help will be blessed by God, for the immense adversity will come upon people so that they will soften their hearts and do justice to their actual task of being lovingly active on earth in order to attain psychological maturity. As long as people only provide for themselves they are selfish and won’t progress spiritually. But their fellow human beings’ hardship can awaken their kind-hearted activity, and then they will comply with God’s will and thus their earthly task …. And then even the most severe hardship will be a blessing and will fulfil its purpose ….

Amen

God's blessing and protection to the co-workers ….

B.D. 4442 from September 25th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

You have promised Me your cooperation, and if you now do so I will bless you …. And I want you to gain the inner conviction that you serve a just cause, I also want you to intellectually recognize what you receive from Me as pure truth and should pass on. Thus I want you to recognize Me Myself in the word which you mentally hear within yourselves, dictated by My spirit. You should be so convinced that I Myself speak to you that you can instruct your fellow human beings without a doubt and that no objection can shake you through counter-speech that I Myself am the author. I want to make My servants’ ministry easy, I want them to work joyfully for Me, that they recognize the value of the spiritual gift which is offered to them from above as an extraordinary grace. And if they are of convinced faith they will also eagerly stand up for the truth. And then their work will be blessed, it will not remain without success, erring souls will be saved by being guided into truth and brought to Me. And whoever listens to you listens to Me …. I Myself can speak to people through your mouth. One day you will realize what it means to establish contact with people who are still distant from Me, who can never make contact with Me themselves due to their lack of love which excludes My closeness, for countless souls have been lost because they cannot establish contact with Me themselves and cannot be forced to do so. But if you are active as mediators a way has been created to influence the will of those, and it is possible to receive strength from Me which they would otherwise not be able to receive. Therefore your cooperation is so necessary and will never be hindered or prevented by Me, on the contrary, I will support you in every way, I will offer you the pure truth such that you will be urged to pass it on and your work will become a joy for you. For I don’t want to lose you as helpers and servants, I want you to become increasingly more active, that only work for Me and My kingdom will satisfy you, that it will spur you on to increased activity and that you will not let any opportunity go to waste, for it is the last time, it is the time of harvest where I require many reapers, so that all work in My vineyard will be done when the last day dawns ….

Amen

Presentation of the divine word great help ….

B.D. 4443 from September 26th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

The presentation of My word is associated with an extremely great spiritual help, for it is a visible sign of supernatural activity so that the human being can gain a firm foothold again if his faith has wavered. He has a certain guarantee that his thinking is correct if it led him to believe in a life outside of earth, he can move with certainty into an area which seemed to him to be only fantasy and is also portrayed as such by worldly-minded people. But thus a ray from the spiritual kingdom touches people who are still earthbound, and only their will is necessary to recognize the ray as originating from the spiritual kingdom. But if this will is present, then the connection between both worlds is already established. A bridge has been found on which the human being can enter the spiritual kingdom unhindered. And thus he can also believe …. Thus, through the presentation of My word I help the human being to attain a convinced faith, although this, too, is still dependent on free will. I help him but do not compulsorily determine his faith …. And thus it can be seen that I help you humans and constantly influence you with My grace, but that you must let the grace work on you yourselves if you want to partake of My help. The last days bring such great upheavals that a firm faith is absolutely necessary in order to stand firm, and no-one would keep his faith in view of the brutal means which are used to fight the faith if the human being could not gain a convinced faith with My help first. Since the time of the battle of faith is imminent I still try to influence people such that they can become convinced beforehand and establish the right relationship with Me. And therefore I speak to you through a person who hears My word directly and can also pass it on. This is an act of grace which is caused by people’s extraordinary weakness before the end. The distance from Me is too great and cannot easily be bridged if it is not based on a firm faith in Me as a loving, wise and almighty God. I try to help you gain this firm faith and therefore reveal Myself to you by speaking to you from above in such a way that you will be able to recognize Me if you are willing, if you make use of the blessings I bestow upon you in My love and mercy for the weak beings in great adversity which once originated from Me and shall return to Me again. For as soon as they gain faith in Me they will be saved for eternity ….

Amen

(Can God suffer?) Love of God ….

B.D. 4444 from September 27th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

He Who makes Himself known to you out of immense love, He courts you with all perseverance and does not give you up because you have been His for eternity. His love is unchanging but it is also law in itself, i.e. only love can join love, and since God is eternal love Himself He also desires love and therefore seeks to shape all His creations into love so that He can unite with them. And thus He seeks to win the love of His creations and has no other aim for ever, because the union in love means beatitude for the creature and also constantly increases God’s beatitude. God is perfect and, as a perfect being, able to give unlimited beatitude, but conversely He also wants to receive it from His creations which have emerged from His strength of love. But preparing beatitude always presupposes love. Hence, if God desires His living creations’ love because He wants to give Himself to them, the lack of love must also restrict the giving love, thus, although it cannot diminish itself, its strength will nevertheless be limited, which also signifies diminished bliss …. in the abundance of divine love only worth mentioning when almost all creatures turn away from Him, thus deny Him their love …. a state which occurred at the end of a redemption period in creation …. (28.9.1948) Then an incomparable longing takes the place of beatitude, which, although it is not suffering as on earth, nevertheless brings increased will to help and exceedingly great mercy to be released. God can never suffer, however, the increasing distance of His beings from Him will result in an increased development of strength, thus God’s love will constantly woo His living creations’ love because He will not abandon them, even if eternities will pass until they turn to Him in love. A state of suffering would only occur if …. what once originated from God’s love were irretrievably lost to His adversary …. which, however, is never possible because the abundance of divine love allows nothing to be lost, indeed, it even wins His adversary itself, albeit in an infinitely distant time for which no human estimate is possible anymore. The fact that God’s love ever decreases is completely eliminated, because love is something so powerful that it forces everything and the power of divine love would be enough to immediately make His creatures inclined towards Himself if He wanted to let it work in all its fullness. But His beatitude increases when His creatures themselves come to Him and offer Him their love. And that is why He only influences them to the smallest degree, always trying to stimulate the will so that it pushes towards Him. If the human being’s will turns away from God, God’s strength of love also diminishes but nevertheless does not abandon him. Courting the love of His creatures is likewise an act of beatitude, which is only comprehensible to people when they themselves are in reciprocating love, which will also never stop courting the love of the other. Fulfilled love is bliss, unrequited love, however, a state of loneliness, which has the effect of a lack of strength or an increased generation of strength …. depending on the strength of love, which is why the beings of the kingdom of light can constantly work in love, even though they often meet resistance on the part of people …. because they are filled with love and even unrequited love is not a diminution of their strength but only increased incentive for activity. People on earth still need an influx of strength which comes to them through love and therefore lack of love also means lack of strength and urge to be active for them, thus it is felt as a state of suffering. Yet the human being remains aware at all times that he is assured of God’s love, that the human being’s love will always be reciprocated if it is meant for Him, and that His love is the true beatitude for everyone who desires it ….

Amen

God's will – human will …. free will ….

B.D. 4445 from September 29th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

As it has been decided since eternity, world events take their course, i.e., human will certainly determines the course but the effects of what is stimulated by human will will always correspond to My will, thus in some way serve people’s upward development if they derive the right benefit from every event. And thus people’s intentions can certainly be completely contrary to My will, yet if I allow something I also associate it with an aim, and thus every event corresponds to My eternal plan, because I have known about people’s will, about their thoughts and actions since eternity, and therefore everyone can nevertheless freely want and act, thus he is by no means determined to carry out what he does. The fact that I know this is no evidence of a coercive influence on people’s will …. what they want to do is up to them, yet the effect of their actions is subject to My will. And thus people will accomplish things in the last days which characterize their material spirit, they will want to improve their earthly life and obtain pleasures and therefore carry out actions which, however, will result in the opposite because I want it that way …. because I know that the realization of their plans only signifies complete spiritual decline, and thus I thwart their intentions in order to indirectly help them attain maturity of soul, even though only few recognize this and the number of those who know about My plan of eternity and see My guidance in everything is also small. More than ever people will be of faith in the end time that it is they who direct the nations’ destiny through their will, and yet they are only the figures in the game. They will be governed by Me but always with respect for their free will, which I will never touch for the sake of people themselves. Thus, if people carry out an act which is not caused by love, if they strive for worldly advantages, if it contravenes christian neighbourly love or is expressed in hatred or unkindness towards their fellow human beings, then I will not prevent these actions, I will leave people free will there too, but I will also demand responsibility from them for every deed or every thought which harms their fellow human beings in any way. But whether their plans are carried out with the success they desire is entirely My will, and whatever happens now will always give the striving human being the opportunity to find Me, to recognize Me and to make contact with Me. And thus the underworld also serves Me, that is, it cannot stop My will either and will therefore only unintentionally contribute towards the realization of My eternal plan, which aims at the redemption of the spiritual world ….

Amen

Right teacher …. God as teacher …. school of the spirit ….

B.D. 4446 from September 30th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

I have taken you into My school in order to train you to become capable teachers who are in possession of the pure truth and thus can teach for the benefit of humanity. This teaching ministry is extremely important in the last days before the end, for only a few people are able to hear the voice of the spirit within themselves and thus also to be taught directly by Me about their earthly task, about their creator and father of eternity, about their actual relationship with Him and about the effects of right and wrongly used will. This knowledge has to be conveyed to them in utmost truth so that they will not fall prey to misguided teachings, for many will presume to teach and each one of them will consider himself called without, however, having been called by Me for an office which requires bearers of truth in order to be provided properly. Pure truth alone signifies brightness, pure truth alone leads to Me, as it also originates from Me, and therefore I Myself take My servants to school for this teaching ministry and instruct them in everything they need for their mission. And I truly instruct them right …. I will never tolerate that anything other than pure truth is imparted to those who want to be active for Me as serving forces on earth, and I will always provide clarification where there is doubt or ignorance, so that the teachers will be able to see completely clearly, to refute objections or contradictions and to answer questions truthfully at all times ….

(1.10.1948) The truth has to be received by Me directly if it is to be pure and unadulterated, and again and again I therefore train suitable teachers who receive this truth for the first time through the voice of the spirit and also deal with it intellectually so that they can then teach with complete conviction, as is My will. If a person on earth expresses his will to work for Me he is a welcome pupil to Me, to whom I impart profound knowledge and prepare him for his pedagogical work. Thus he will first be instructed himself in the same way as he shall then instruct his fellow human beings who are outside of contact with Me. For they shall find their way to Me, they shall learn to recognize Me as a loving teacher, as a God of grace and justice, of love and wisdom; I also want to impart My gospel to them and therefore have to avail Myself of those who let Me speak through them. Thus, if I instruct you I am also active in you Myself, it is My mouth which speaks words of love to you, it is My spirit which sounds to you from it, it is My love which expresses itself in you through the word. You are merely the form which I use …. Thus I instruct people Myself through you, but My strength is always at work when you humans hear the gospel through those who receive the word from Me. Therefore, if you listen to them you listen to Me, and if you don’t believe them you don’t believe in Me either, otherwise you would immediately recognize My voice as the voice of your creator, the father of eternity. Therefore pay attention to those I send to you and take their words seriously, then you will also soon learn to recognize the teacher and join His school, for truly, I say to you, you are constantly surrounded by teachers who are all active on My behalf in the spiritual kingdom. And they make sure that you are instructed correctly, that you learn to recognize the truth and never ever lose it, so that you, as teachers on earth, can help them to educate people to think correctly, for only the truth helps you humans to unite with Me, to attain eternal beatitude ….

Amen

Call of God like a spoken word ….

B.D. 4447 from October 2nd 1948, taken from Book No. 52

You will hear My call like a spoken word and then every doubt will fall, every weakness will be overcome, every indecision will leave you, then you will gladly and joyfully serve Me and be faithful labourers for Me on earth. I Myself will guide you along the paths you should take, everything will come to you so that you only need to act as it urges you from within, and every counterthought will fade away because My word still resounds in you, because you are full of bliss and willingness over this resounding word and are now completely absorbed in service for Me and My kingdom. But then you will also know that the hour has come when your mission begins and that great demands will be placed on you because the adversity will set in, because then what I have predicted through word and scripture will come to pass …. I will now make Myself audible to all people, I will speak to them through the elements of nature because otherwise they will not want to listen to Me and the time of the end will require a great shaking of people’s thinking. And then I place the hope in you that you will be firm supports for Me on earth, that you will take your mission seriously and help Me to save countless erring souls. You can do it, and I don’t demand anything unfulfillable from you, for I Myself am with you at all times and give you strength, so that you, so to speak, only need to carry out what I mentally instruct you to do, and you only ever need to make use of My strength …. that I Myself thus work through you, who completely submit yourselves to My will through conscious devotion to Me. The adversity around you will drive you to eager activity, everywhere you will find cared-for, anxious people who are grateful to you for comforting encouragement, for enlightening words which give them hope for help from above, which revive their weak faith or also make completely unbelievers think. Your convincing words will do them good, they will adhere to you so that you can be a strong support for them in the difficult time you all still have to live through. Yet I only place the burden on all of you which you are able to bear with My help …. If you don’t make use of My help then it will weigh too heavily on you, if you don’t commit yourselves to satan, who will certainly also help you, but then your soul will be lost forever. Anyone who believes in Me and trustingly appeals to Me for help will not call upon Me in vain, and he will survive the time until the end without harming his soul. Make this known to them, you My servants on earth, that everyone holds his fate in his own hands, that there is a possibility of help for every person if only he wants to take it, that I am ready for everyone and will help him carry the heaviest cross, yet he has to come to Me himself and appeal to Me for help, then he will be visibly cared for and every adversity will be bearable for him ….

Amen

The audible Word and conditions ….

B.D. 4448 from October 2nd 1948, taken from Book No. 52

You need to pay attention to the slightest emotion if you want to hear My voice within yourselves. For this reason the transmission of My Word can only take place if you are in complete seclusion from the world. Although you are still living in the midst of the world everything around you can nevertheless subside into nothingness, it can stay completely unnoticed by you, if you direct your thoughts inwards and look for Me. Then you will observe different spheres to the earthly one, then you are already in the spiritual realm, your soul has lifted itself across while the body remains on earth but without having lost the connection with the soul. Anyone who succeeds in dismissing all worldly thoughts and concentrates will soon hear gentle Words in his heart, and the more the soul has detached itself from the body the clearer they will sound, that is, the more the soul strives towards the spiritual kingdom where My Word originates from, where I Am Myself amongst the beings which educate you on My instructions, if the teaching does not directly come forth from Me. The world certainly does not want to admit that God speaks directly to people, it finds it implausible because the world, that is, worldly people, will never be able to hear this gentle voice since they only take notice of their body’s demands and what it achieves. The soul is an implausible concept for them, they do not acknowledge the soul and therefore do not accept what the soul receives from the spiritual kingdom and wants to impart to people on earth.

They don’t believe it because they also lack the will to live up to the conditions which enable them to hear My voice. They don’t mentally detach themselves from the world but constantly strive towards it so that they have no time for turning inwards, thus they never lead an inner life without which, however, My Word cannot possibly be heard. I do not approach people from outside but meet them in their hearts …. Although I also work so evidently that it is externally visible to whom I Am present, who receives strength from Me …. but only ever where a life of love is being lived, where I can enter a heart because I Am called upon in the heart. I only manifest Myself where an earthly child firmly believes in Me and loves Me with all its heart, and both are feelings of the soul which are unrelated to the body as such. Thus anyone who wants to hear Me must come to Me and I Am not in the world but in the spiritual kingdom, even though My will is also in charge of the world but only to win worldly people over to Me, to entice them away from the bustle of the world into seclusion in order to make those possessions desirable for them which alone are of value for eternity …. Withdraw into solitude and listen within and you will clearly and distinctly hear Me if you pay attention to every thought, for as long as you don’t perceive the audible Word in you which needs a particular maturity of soul and most intimate contact with Me …. However, I reveal Myself to everyone who fulfils My will and desires to hear Me ….

Amen

Hour of the calling …. announcement of the end ….

B.D. 4449 from October 3rd 1948, taken from Book No. 52

The hour of your calling is drawing ever closer and will also take you by surprise, although you are aware of it. Apparently a state of calm has occurred which also makes your work for My kingdom appear to be on hold, yet the change will come suddenly and a completely new field of vision will open up to you, you will be pushed away from the earthly and the spiritual will come to the fore, and then your last but extremely important mission on this earth will begin. Then all earthly worries will recede, for everything will take care of itself for you, and My working on you will be so obvious that a calm will come over you which will allow you to carry out all spiritual work. The time has come which I announced on and on …. the earth is entering the last phase of its development and surprisingly quickly a world situation has been created which fills all people with excitement …. Blessed is he who recognizes how close the end is and how everything is fulfilled that was proclaimed long before by seers and prophets. It is coming to an end …. You don’t believe it because you are still in the midst of the world and only look at everything in a purely worldly, i.e. earthly material way and have no sense for the spiritual. You will also only look at the forthcoming events in a purely worldly way and again only take care of your physical well-being, yet I urgently warn you against this and admonish you to still only take care of your soul, for you are about to reach the end …. Again and again I have to give you this assurance because your faith is weak, if you still believe in Me and My word at all. But if you don’t believe My word from above and yet think you believe, then compare the written word from the book of the fathers …. and you will find nothing else there than what I say to you from above. But if you do not want to reject that, then you cannot deny a last judgment with all the preceding signs …. But who of you wants to know when the end will be …. and who of you wants to consider it completely impossible that the time has already come? And if I now draw your attention to the fact that the time is fulfilled, then do not oppose My word with doubts but believe that it is I Who tells you this, that it is I Who knows everything and that My plan has been determined since eternity. Accordingly, everything will now also unfold as it is determined …. And so the call to you, My servants and disciples of the end time, will soon go out to you and bring great changes with it …. But then willingly give yourselves into My hand, which will guide you safely and carefully over all dangers of life, so that you will now fulfil your mission according to My will …. And I will bless you and every work you do for Me and My kingdom ….

Amen

Struggle for strong faith ….

B.D. 4450 from October 4th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

The struggle for profound unshakeable faith must not diminish, otherwise there is a danger that the concern for physical well-being will outweigh the spiritual concern and the human being will become weak in every respect. Deep faith alone gives strength, faith is the guarantee of all success, faith gives peace and tranquillity of heart, and all worries disappear if the person has strong faith. A person’s own strength is not sufficient to cope with the demands placed on him but only the strength of faith, for this is divine strength, it flows over to the person who presents all his needs to Me in profound faith so that I will help him. Firm faith that I will help him to master his earthly life also secures him the strength which is necessary to overcome earthly demands. But if faith is weak then the human being becomes anxious, he only focuses all his attention on his earthly activity, he becomes lukewarm in his spiritual striving and does not progress, but this alone is important in earthly life. A firm faith is trust in Me …. You must not lack this, for anyone who has no faith in Me does not believe in My love and My omnipotence either, thus he does not believe in a perfect being which is united with you in profound love. Strive for strong faith, don’t cease to pray, to imagine that I belong together with My living creations forever, that you, who have emerged from Me, are constantly cared for and looked after and that I don’t want to leave you in adversity if you feel yourselves to be My children and now also come to the father as a child and appeal to Him for help. First of all I want your trust in Me, your faith that I can and will help you …. If you have this faith you will already be helped, for I will never let a strong faith go to waste. Connect with Me in spirit, speak to Me and expect My help …. and it will become yours ….

"He who receives one of My brethren …." reward of God …. help the servants ….

B.D. 4451 from October 4th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

You will gain a reward from God if you grant shelter to My true representatives on earth, for then you will also give shelter to Me Myself, Who is with them, Whom you certainly cannot see but can perceive at any time if you follow My disciples’ activities and recognize their extraordinary mission. Then it will become obvious to you that they are not active out of their own strength but, permeated by divine strength, are able to achieve supernatural things. And then you will also be blessed by divine revelations yourselves, you may receive and thus hear Me Myself when I speak to you through My servants. Then you will receive Me Myself and can expect My love in return, which will reward you a thousand fold for what you do for My servants. For anyone who is My true disciple will be as poor in earthly possessions as I was when I lived on earth, and he will call nothing his own and always depend on his neighbour’s love. And therefore you should accept them and give them what they need out of true christian neighbourly love …. And you will receive more than you give, for you only give earthly goods but I impart spiritual goods to you which cannot perish and which you can therefore take with you into the spiritual kingdom. But this is how you recognize My true servants, that they are destitute and in many respects dependent on their neighbour’s love, on people willing to help, that they have to be supported by those who have means at their disposal. I lead you to My servants whom you should accept if they ask you for help. You will by no means come to harm but you will gain an incredible amount, for My promise will come true: Whoever receives one of My brothers receives Me, and My reward is truly not small …. And by this you will also recognize the end time, that I call servants to work for Me and My kingdom, for I have announced to you that the time of harvest has come and that I need many reapers for this time. So that My servants can now work, they shall be relieved of earthly worries and find people on earth who faithfully stand by them, who relieve them of earthly worries and support them in every way so that they can carry out the spiritual work unhindered. And I will bless those, and they will feel My grace because they, too, participate in the flow of love which pours out upon My own, upon all those who are in contact with My own, whom they don’t hostile, for they, too, are under My protection, I Myself am also close to them and express Myself to them in the word ….

Directed matter …. bound will ….

B.D. 4452 from October 5th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Directed matter is the spiritual in a bound state which has directed itself through its God-contradicting will, i.e. has been placed into the state of bound will by God’s will. It can therefore no longer, as was originally the case, freely will and put its will into action, but it is completely powerless and stands in the law of compulsion, it is forced to move in the will of God …. it stands in the bound will …. This state lasts for eternities and encompasses infinitely many deformations and stages of development and passes through countless creations until the stage as a human being, where it then steps out of the bound will into freedom of will, where it can then redeem itself, although it is still judged, if it uses the freedom of its will correctly, i.e. to approach God. Hence, it is first a judged being which can step out of judgment into the state of spiritual freedom, strength and light …. Now it is a wrong concept that the human being falls under this judgment through sin, but he is already in judgment when he enters earth as a human being and is still in judgment as long as he is not yet born again, thus has not yet awakened his spirit. And depending on his way of life, which can be without sin but also very sinful, the cover around the spiritual substance thickens or gradually dissolves. If, however, the spiritual being as a human being remains in resistance to God, then there is a great danger that the whole endless long time of an epoch of redemption will have been in vain for the spiritual being, that it will have to travel the same path again and thus the spiritual being will again be bound in matter, which it had long since overcome. Then it enters the law of compulsion again, it is again directed by God’s will and is bound in hardest matter, a state which can be called hell because it is extremely agonizing for the spiritual, which was originally created in fullest freedom and strength and power and now can no longer use it until it has completely changed and found union with God in free will. Then the being enters into God’s will of its own accord and becomes the most blissful creature, as it was destined to be from eternity ….

Supernatural powers …. transmission from the spiritual realm ….

B.D. 4453 from October 6th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Supernatural forces are at work where the transmission of the divine word to an earthly human being takes place, for the human being in himself achieves something that he cannot do on his own. An ability emerges that can only be explained by the extraordinary working of unknown forces. If one does not want to accept the latter and assume a purely natural ability, then the ability would also have to be found in other people, otherwise it remains something extraordinary that must have its reason. And therefore the assumption is justified that forces are at work which the human being does not know, if he has not yet penetrated into the area of spiritual transmission. Both worlds face each other, the spiritual kingdom builds a bridge to the earthly world …. invisible forces unite with people on earth and mentally communicate with the latter in such a way that the thoughts can be recorded and also passed on to fellow human beings. And the thoughts are formed teachings which contain comprehensive knowledge. Hence a transmission of truthful knowledge takes place which can never be presented by people in such detail and to such an extent, thus it has to originate from beings which are exceedingly wise and able to carry out a teaching activity. These beings are only supernatural insofar as they dwell outside of earth or, to be more precise, outside of earthly creations, but otherwise they are beings of highest perfection which have discarded their physical cover and entered the spiritual kingdom. These beings try to communicate with people and share their abundant knowledge with them in the realization that knowledge makes people happy and that people on earth lack it. In their love they want to make people happy and lead them to perfection, and that is why they use every opportunity to reveal themselves to people if they make a revelation from the spiritual kingdom possible through their will. Then all barriers between the earthly and the spiritual world will fall, then the spiritual beings will draw people into their realm, the human being’s soul will detach itself from earth, it will flee from the body and accept instructions from the spiritual kingdom …. The supersensible forces express themselves and the human being’s soul is able to receive these expressions, it is able to hear the thoughts of the beings of light as words within itself, the words do not remain without impression, they imprint themselves on the soul and the soul takes them back to earth with it, it transmits what it has received to the intellect, and the human being as such is now able to process the spiritual knowledge received from the soul intellectually and to keep it as spiritual property. And so that people have a clear sign of this working of spiritual strength it is possible for the receiving person to write down the spiritual wealth, thus to provide visible evidence of the connection with the spiritual kingdom, otherwise his spiritual material could be regarded as his own imagination and the transmission which took place as the imagination of humanity. The human being can always recognize it if only he wants to, yet no compulsion is imposed on his will …. But blessed is he who recognizes divine working in every spiritual transmission, for he will derive great benefit from it for his soul, which the beings of light want to help everyone achieve ….

Amen

Living water ….

B.D. 4454 from October 7th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

The source of eternal life from which the living water flows is inexhaustible, and anyone who longs for the living water will constantly be able to refresh himself from it. I Myself will never dry up this spring, but you humans can easily contribute to a weakening of the flow if your soul blocks the exit, if you erect obstacles, if you act against nature and thus consciously want to kill the spring. Once the water of eternal life has broken through the hard rock, there will never be a lack of clear, refreshing water for people, and everyone who desires refreshment will be able to feast on it. And yet, human will is capable of blocking even a spring if the delicious gift, the fresh, pure, healthy water of life is not recognized as delicious and the human being strives to render its strength ineffective because he believes he does not need it.

But then they will also have to blame themselves if everything becomes desolate and withers, if no real life can flourish within a wide radius, if people only live naturally but are spiritually completely without life, for they lack the strength they can draw from the spring of life, from the eternal source of divine love. My word is the water of life, born from above, emanating from the eternal source and flowing to all those who open themselves as a vessel into which the flow of My love can pour. My word refreshes everyone, it is food and drink for the soul, My word is a delicious drink for all earthly wanderers who need strengthening on their earthly path of life. And where My word is received, there the rock has opened to henceforth give fresh, life-awakening water. There faith is so strong that My voice is audible …. Where a spring has broken through the rock there will be vegetation everywhere in the vicinity, there people will be healthy in body and soul as well as they will refresh themselves at the spring, as soon as they live out My word and also consider their fellow human beings according to their feelings, for then they will also offer the cups of clearest water to those and thus also enliven their surroundings …. Anyone who does not pass by the source of life need not fear death, for there is truly no death for him, he only leaves the body and passes into eternal life, for he has drunk from the water of life and can no longer die forever …. He has received My word, he has recognized the eternal truth therein, and he will never ever let go of what he has received from Me, he will never ever let the spring run dry but his thirst will become ever greater the more he refreshes himself at the source of life, he will want to drink without interruption, and he will do everything to keep the fountain of life pure, and he will also know how to prevent fellow human beings from blocking the spring, because he is vigilant and also strong enough to keep every pest away, for he constantly draws strength from My word, from the water of life, from the source which My great love has opened up for you ….

Amen

Gathering spiritual treasures on earth …. Regret in the beyond ….

B.D. 4455 from October 9th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Anyone who has not gathered spiritual treasures for himself on earth and thus enters the gates of the beyond empty handed is one of the poorest in the spiritual kingdom. I would like to spare you this fate because you will experience bitter regret when you look back and see the many missed opportunities. Poverty in the spiritual kingdom is so depressing and hopeless that it will torment you and completely paralyse your will, as a result you will hardly be able to deliver yourselves from this painful state. And yet it is so easy to acquire spiritual possessions on earth if only you thought of Me and desired to speak to Me. Merely this desire guarantees receipt of My Word in different ways …. You will always be shown where you can receive My Word if you do not accept it from Me in your thoughts, that is, if you cannot recognise My voice in your thoughts.

However, it is certain that you will feel the inner motivation to do kind deeds as soon as you contact Me in thought and thus intend to get in touch with Me. I announce Myself by prompting you to love because only then can I enter into complete union with you. Thus, first of all I inspire you to actions of love, and this directly through the inner voice or through external advice and reminders by the deliverers of My Word who only preach love. If you listen to them and follow the Word then you will also gather spiritual possessions and acquire riches which will remain with you eternally, which cannot be taken from you on earth or in the beyond and which will increase in the same way, even when you constantly share them. To enter the kingdom on the other side blessed with such possessions is truly most desirable as it assures your eternal life in the spiritual kingdom, a life of activity which can only be called enjoyable and will be felt by you as a great blessing.

But those who enter completely empty handed will find it very difficult to acquire spiritual wealth even though it is not entirely hopeless. Even there the Gospel will be taught to the soul but, like on earth, it is not forced to accept it; like on earth, acceptance depends on its will which, however, is extraordinarily weakened and cannot make the right decision without the help of additional strength. And this input of strength in turn depends on the will of the soul to use it for deeds of love …. or on the loving intercession of a human being. For that reason you cannot have enough compassion for these poor souls who urgently require your help because they neglected to gather spiritual treasures on earth to make their state in the beyond a happy one. Their poverty is great but people do not listen to My Word, they do not believe and therefore enter the kingdom on the other side poor and with darkened spirit ….

Amen
