How long Lucifer could create? ….
B.D. 5645 from April 6th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
My strength was effective in the first-created being so long, until the decision of will was put down completely, or even: Lucifer or light bearer could still create beings so long, as he was still full of My love strength, which, however, weakened itself always more with his constant fall in the depth, with his removing from Me, at last to be completely ineffective …. So I did not take away the strength from this first created being, but he himself made it ineffective, as soon as he removed endlessly far away from Me …. But the act of decision of the will was no a thing of the moment, it was also this decision a process, that extended over endless times, because also the will in Lucifer against Me developed slowly, and accordingly were also the beings, who were created by him, they had more or less a will in them facing away from Me. So long as the first created being had not yet made a complete break with Me, it was also still active creating and shaping, but more and more the ability to create faded away, however not limited by Me, but original legally My strength lost its effects, the moment as it came across resistance. So long as the first created being remained in the area of My strength of love, it could also create, but always according to his will, to accept My strength in the knowledge, that he got it from Me as the original source of the force. This time of the still undecided will was fully enough to the creation of countless beings with likewise indecisive will, that then always turned away from Me more and also the first created being had become unable, to bring more beings into life. The intimate contact with Me let stream unrestrained force towards the being, who was once created by My love …. The final separation from Me had led inevitably to a complete weakness too. The force effect reduced itself to the same degree, as the will itself turned away from Me. But so long as it used My strength to create, it also accepted Me as power source, but did not transfer this knowledge to the beings, who were brought into life by him ….
And when it did not want to obtain more strength from Me volitionally, in the faith to possess this itself, its decision of will was made …. It rejected the force, and that meant endless distance from Me and thus weakness, so that after his fall in the depth his power was broken too, to be created further beings through his will …. Understand it right: It was an immensely long time between the first moment of opposing and the complete turning away from Me, and the created being was also designed accordingly in this time, so why it was necessary, that I had to radiate through all being with My light of knowledge, from which I demanded the decision of will, but which it used differently as well, as it itself had a different nature …. But it could decide right, the kind of its creation was not determining, but the will of every being was free. By a fall into the depth could already be spoken in the moment of the first volitional turning away from Me …. but that was so far not acomplished completely, as I Myself was still recognized as a source of strength …. And so long the first created being could use the unlimited strength, which is given him by Me, according to his will …. For so long it remained in the current circuit of My love, as it recognized Myself. But it came out of this current circuit, as it resisted Me consciously …. when it itself rejected the strength, not to need to recognize Me, because it imagined itself strong and powerful enough, to be able to create and design high-handedly …. Now My strength remained ineffective according to the original law of eternity …. And now no creation of beings was possible too, because now I used My whole strength of love for returning of the fallen spiritual …. The spiritual work of creation was completed, now the deification of creation began, the education of the creatures to My children in free will …. a work, to which is My complete strength of love and that also My opponent will not be able to prevent, to whom at last this opponent will surrender voluntarily too, to reach the state of unlimited strength again and to use this now according to My will ….
Amen

The deepest knowledge was revealed to Jesus …. following Jesus ….
B.D. 5646 from April 8th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
The act of creation as well as the fall of man, the spiritual beings’ turning away from Me, can only ever be depicted to you humans, i.e. in such a way that you will understand what motivated the son of man Jesus to allow Himself to be crucified and why He has to be acknowledged as the son of God and redeemer of the world. The human being’s degree of maturity also determines his power of realization; only rarely can a human being penetrate the deepest wisdom and thus understand My reign and activity as the human being Jesus did, for He was able to see through everything and thus also My eternal plan of salvation, the plan of divinizing the once-created …. This most profound realization as a human being was also only the result of His life of love, which thus brought about the divinization of Himself, thus the man Jesus achieved this aim on earth, as it were, which I set for the entire spiritual being, the beingness created by Me. The attainment of this aim, the divinization of His being, inevitably had to entail such a bright spiritual state that Jesus was able to recognize, overlook and see through everything …. but at the same time also the infinitely wide distance of people from Me, which could never lead to that aim. This very knowledge motivated Him to do something in order to bring My living creations back to Me, Whom He loved above all else, as beings which, through love, had assimilated themselves to My fundamental nature. Love for Me and for His fellow human beings was the divine in Him which now also let Him know about everything and thus also about the only path which was a help for that which had fallen away from Me. However, the man Jesus was never able to impart this knowledge to His fellow human beings …. He was certainly able to show them the way to attain knowledge but never to transfer His own knowledge to His fellow human beings. And therefore the knowledge about the creation and the apostasy of the spiritual substance from people cannot be gained in a school-like way, nor can it be presented by Me Myself such that the human being will have full understanding for it …. It is the deepest knowledge which only becomes the property of the one who wants to possess it through love …. Nevertheless, you humans are guided by My spirit into right thinking as soon as you are able to do so, so as not to fall prey to misguided teachings which can obscure or even disfigure My image for you, which would never deepen your love for Me. But true love can illuminate your spirit in an instant, and everything which was previously still unclear to you will appear before your spiritual eye with such clarity that no worldly knowledge will be able to displace your knowledge …. Then it will be impossible for you to harbour another wrong thought within yourselves, you will recognize as error what is error, but you will also know that you stand in truth, in right knowledge, because this is the light which flows into you from the original light, which cannot be conveyed to the intellect from outside but which everyone has had within himself since the beginning. On earth a person rarely reaches the degree of maturity which reveals to him everything that was revealed to the man Jesus, yet the right following of Jesus is the only path which reveals the secrets to him, and anyone who takes this path will also understand the work of creation, the fall into sin and the act of salvation of Jesus Christ, and the realization, the knowledge of My reign and activity, of My plan of salvation from eternity will come to him, of My eternal plan of salvation and deepen his love for Me, Who only let My greater than great love take effect in order to give and receive love again, and Who therefore will never tire of wooing My living creations’ love until they offer it to Me of their own accord as My children, until they have deified themselves through love ….
Amen

'Whoever is loved by God ….'
B.D. 5647 from April 9th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Whoever is loved by God often has to follow stony paths and carry burdens which almost crush him; but always only for his own good, for every burden of the cross can be a blessing for him if he has the right attitude towards Him Who directs his destiny. Whoever is loved by God …. He certainly loves all of His living creations but especially those who no longer have far to go in order to reach the final goal. He knows every human being’s disposition and thus He also knows every individual person’s attitude towards his God and Father of eternity, and He will often treat him accordingly in order to help him reach the goal. And only in this way should you explain the fact that God-devoted people who clearly fulfil His will have to suffer and often fight a difficult struggle for existence, which at times raises doubt about God’s benevolence and love. God knows the purpose of everything, and if only people were convinced of His love and kindness they would also recognise everything as divine providence and not rebel against it, they would know themselves as being seized by God’s love and patiently wait for their destiny to change again.
There is truly much suffering on earth, humanity is languishing under its weight, but it does not recognise itself in need of educating and therefore inwardly revolts against it when it should just humbly submit to it, so that all difficulties would be taken away again and God’s help would manifest itself so clearly that He could be recognised as a loving Father by everyone who wants to recognise Him. Those who are loved by God are allowed to suffer …. These Words find little credence, for no-one considers that suffering is a truly effective method of upbringing in a world where people only ever strive to please their body, where God’ love is not seen in situations of adversity and sorrow. And yet it is His love which manifests itself such that it is beneficial for the soul. For God knows the blessing of suffering and therefore He often uses such means in order to keep people back from the earthly world. He would rather see them suffer than plunge them into the mire of the world and its sin. He knows that disease and pain can result in a change, but that the world can never offer the soul spiritual success, so therefore the world has to be disregarded first, which God indirectly assists people in doing by keeping them back from the world and its dangers through means which seemingly lack God’s love but are never harmful for the soul, unless the human being revolts against his destiny and invokes His adversary.
Then he will be helped indeed, but in a different way than the human being thinks …. he will certainly help but never without reward …. And this reward consists of handing the soul over to him. Therefore submit to God’s will when you are affected by adversity and suffering, don’t grumble and complain, bow down to His orders and lift your eyes up only to Him. And He will take the cross from you, He will make it easy for you as soon as you completely surrender yourselves to His merciful guidance. For you can always know yourselves loved by Him, Who through suffering and adversity only wants to win you for Himself, Who wants to purify your soul and time and again provides it with the opportunity to practise patience and gentleness, so that God’s help will then visibly arrive, so that His love will visibly intervene and also heal all wounds when the time is right ….
Amen

Earthly destiny corresponds to will ….
B.D. 5648 from April 11th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
I Am a Father to all of you, and thus it will also be understandable to you that I grant My Fatherly love to each one of My children and that I have the destiny of each one at heart, that I Myself lead every child by the hand until it is able to walk on its own, until it has matured into a being that is like Me, until it is so closely united with Me and thus thinks and acts according to My will. Every being’s development was delineated an eternity ago …. but this does not mean that it has to follow this process without will, rather, My wisdom recognised the process which corresponded to the being’s will and offers the greatest opportunities to guide it to Me. I foresaw both the resistance as well as the lessening of resistance in every being and My plan of Salvation adapted itself to this will. The being lacks the past memory of the blissful state at the beginning as well as of its fall into the abyss …. Consequently, its will can make a completely free decision as to the direction it takes, it is not influenced by Me in any way. Yet My love and wisdom always placed the being into circumstances conducive for its change of will …. It can very easily make the right decision but is not forced to do so. I Myself will never complicate a being’s process of development because My love for that which emerged from Me is infinite and because this love only ever yearns for the return of the beings to Me, thus I will always make it easy for the being to find the right path to Me. I also foresaw the failures an eternity ago, I foresaw My living creations’ renewed apostasy from Me, which time and again requires ever new opportunities in order to reach My goal one day. But even these failures are taken into account and won’t hamper Me from implementing My salvation process …. they merely prolong it and demand more effective means, and sooner or later they will certainly lead to the goal ….
Therefore, the way a person’s destiny on earth turns out always corresponds to My eternal plan of Salvation, since I have also known his will for eternity and always take effect according to this will, thus earthly life approaches the person as is favourable towards changing his will and turning it towards Me. As the Father of My children, I also truly know their every nature and must therefore treat each one of My children differently in order to win them over for Me, in order to gain their love …. For it is My goal that they grant Me their love and therefore I won’t compel them but will allow them their freedom, since compulsion can only result in obedience out of fear but never in obedience out of love. However, I yearn for My children’s love and therefore never lose patience, even if My plan of return takes a long time …. I will always take My living creation’s will into account, yet one day it will freely choose Me, one day its love for Me will break through, My living creation will subordinate its will to Mine, it will ask for My love and My Fatherly love will draw the child to itself and never ever let go of it again ….
Amen

Heaven's food …. source of life …. (soul food)
B.D. 5649 from April 11th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Strengthen yourselves with the food I offer you, let yourselves be addressed by Me, believe that love lets Me descend to you because I want to fetch you up to Me if you don’t resist Me yourselves. Hear words of most holy love, words of deepest truth, words full of light and strength, and let yourselves be permeated by My light, let yourselves be strengthened and help your soul to recover, which is sick as long as it does not receive food and drink from Me, as long as it does not let itself be touched by My love. You are all children of My love, you all have the right to enjoy the bliss of heaven, you are all allowed to stay close to Me, however, you must be such that My closeness no longer harms you, that you are not consumed by the fire of My love. And therefore you must have become love yourselves in order to be able to unite with Me as the eternal love …. I want to help you achieve this, you who are still far away from Me, thus also far away from love …. I therefore speak to you in order to kindle love in you, I approach you in the word, I am with you as soon as you listen to My word and willingly receive it into your heart …. then the shell of your soul will melt and My ray of love will touch it mightily and make it tremble with delight …. I see your distress, I see the hunger and thirst of your souls, I know about your weakness and darkness, I want to help you, I want you to come to My table and take supper with Me, I want you to strengthen yourselves with the word that is from Me, which is healing food for the weak and helpless sick soul …. I offer you the right medicine so that you can heal, but you yourselves must want to become healthy ….
You must listen to My voice and believe that your father in heaven will never abandon His children, that He will also follow you into darkness, that He will always kindle a light for you so that you will find the path which leads out of the darkness. For I love you and I do not want you to suffer and spend your existence in adversity and torment ….
And where you now see such a light shining, stay there and let it give you a strengthening drink, and when you have tasted and noticeably feel the strength, then no longer go away from this source of life, for you too will be awakened to the right life, if only you desire to live …. I do not want your death, I do not want you to sink into the night of darkness, I want the radiant morning to delight you too, I want you to be illuminated by the sun of My grace, I want you to become happy in My love, so that you awaken to life and never lose this life again ….
Amen

Spiritual rebirth ….
B.D. 5650 from April 12th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
You humans ought to strive towards spiritual rebirth, for eternal life is only assured to you when you are born again. Your natural birth is merely a process necessary in order to facilitate the soul’s path towards rebirth. Your soul must be born again, it must step out of the state of lifelessness into a state of life, it must step out of its shell and be born anew, thus it should enter a hitherto unfamiliar sphere, it should escape its old cover in order to be able to flourish in freedom and light …. Your natural birth is a gift of God, Who provides the soul with the opportunity to create a new life for itself …. However, it must strive for its rebirth by itself, it must consciously enter a new life, it must consciously strive towards God and work at improving itself in order to release itself from its cover which effectively was a grave for the soul from which it had to emerge in order to exchange the state of death with that of life. This rebirth is not a gift of God, instead, the soul itself must aspire to it, but it is the human being’s goal on earth which he must reach if he wants to become blessed. And he will achieve it if he, through a life of love, bursts the chains which still keep his soul constrained …. if he, through love, awakens this divine spark of life within himself …. if the previously dead soul, being weak and without knowledge, is inspired by this spark of life into God-pleasing activity …. if, in a manner of speaking, it allows itself to be impelled from within into God-pleasing acts of love, and thereby receives the strength to burst the chains and rise up into a kingdom where it feels at home and essentially belongs …. Then it will be born again, it will indeed still live on earth, but its earthly life will be accompanied by a spiritual life; its thoughts and intentions will be spiritually inclined, by having recognised its task in life it will strive to comply with it and consciously live in and with God …. However, it accomplished this spiritual awakening of its own will, certainly supported by God’s grace, which nevertheless is at everyone’s disposal, albeit not used by everyone due to a lack of will. You humans should make your spiritual rebirth the goal of your life on earth, for you will only live when you are born again, when your soul has arisen from the tomb of death, when it has escaped spiritual darkness and entered the light of day …. And every thought you consciously aim upwards, every deed you accomplish with love, assures you this spiritual rebirth, it must merely be your intention to provide a full life for your soul, don’t keep it imprisoned if it wants to escape the confinement of its grave, you must entirely consciously strive for spiritual rebirth by overcoming everything that still burdens your soul, you must give it complete freedom …. The soul shall receive a new life, it shall enter this new life full of light and strength, an infinitely long state of constraint shall be transformed, it shall be born again in spirit and in truth in order to never ever lose this life again ….
Amen

Guiding the blind ….
B.D. 5651 from April 13th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Guide the blind rightly so that they find the right path to Me, give them your guidance, do not let them walk alone along the path they cannot see because they lack the light of their eyes …. have pity on these blind people, for they are unable to reach the aim without help …. And know that all men are blind in spirit, who walk without knowledge, who lack the light necessary for knowledge …. And you should help these blind in spirit, for they are in great distress. They are often seized by the hands and pushed onto a path which is taken by many, and carelessly they walk along among the many, not realizing that the path leads downwards, far away from the aim they should be heading for. Therefore you should be spiritual guides to these blind people, you should stand attentively at the edge of the broad path and take care of such blind people, gently pull them away from the broad road onto the narrow path, which indeed leads upwards and is therefore more arduous to walk on, but which must be walked on by everyone who has a guide at his side in whom he can confide. How often do you meet blind people in spirit who are grateful to you for a ray of light, who unhesitatingly entrust themselves to you that you guide them correctly, who are not obdurate yet completely ignorant, and who gladly accept knowledge from you which gives them light in their dark spiritual state. But they must feel your love because they are suspicious in their weakness and helplessness. Therefore, first try to win their trust before you offer yourselves to them as guides on the path to ascent; take hold of them with a gentle hand and make them understand that you only want to help those who cannot find their way on their own. And then describe to them the aim towards which you yourselves are heading and invite them to walk with you under your guidance, under your support and protection. And once you have gained their trust, don’t disappoint them …. always remember that they are dependent on you, that you have to support them as long as they have not yet regained their sight, that you may only let them walk alone when they have gained their sight through you and can no longer go astray. Then they will walk of their own accord towards the aim which lies brightly before them, then they will see Me Myself at the end of the path and no longer take their eyes off Me …. then I Myself will stretch out My hand towards them and pull them up to Me …. And then you will have done a work of merciful neighbourly love, that you will have helped those to light who were blind in spirit, and they will thank you for this work of love forever ….
Amen

Serious reminder to vineyard work ….
B.D. 5652 from April 15th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
The days will quickly pass when you can still be active for My kingdom. And therefore I want to provide you with strength so that you can make good use of the short time, I want to expand your field of work, I want to give you abundant seed so that you can sow much in the field which you are to cultivate. I want to be with you with My blessing and you shall noticeably feel it, for you shall be encouraged to be active because there is not much time left until the end. Do whatever you feel impelled to do, for it is My will which I place in your heart, and wherever you have the opportunity speak, even if you don’t always find understanding if people don’t agree with you. It is always the beginning, the first ploughing of the field, which must be done in order to make the soil suitable for sowing. The seed will not always come up, but the more lovingly you go about the work, the more success you will have. You are still allowed to speak freely, you don’t yet need to fear any opposing power, there is a certain state of calm amongst people where they can listen to you if they want to. And you should make good use of this time and eagerly work for Me and My kingdom. And I truly want to smooth the paths for you and guide you, assign you the work which you can successfully accomplish. Difficult times lie ahead of you, the storm will break out overnight which requires all strength of resistance, which I know about and take My precautions accordingly, yet the calm before is a time of grace which shall be used properly. Your heart will tell you what can be done to spread My gospel, through which I will express Myself if you want to serve Me. And whatever you recognize as good and in accordance with My will you should also do and let yourselves be blessed for it, for then you will be helping Me which will let many more souls find their way to Me. No matter what happens, it is My providence, it is My will which only corresponds to My eternal plan of salvation. But you should not put spiritual work on the back burner and give priority to earthly life …. Work with Me and for Me and participate in the act of salvation …. this is your actual task which you will always be able to fulfil because you will never need to do without My blessing. The time is drawing to a close …. and whatever is possible in order to save souls from the night of death beforehand is what you should do, I will also always favour it, I will smooth all paths you should take in order to bring life to the dead souls …. I will take you into My protection Myself, I will care for you as a good householder cares for his children, for his servants and maidservants who seek to fulfil his will ….
Amen

Prayer in spirit and in truth ….
B.D. 5653 from April 16th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
No one will call upon Me for help in vain who sends his supplication to Me in spirit and in truth. But how should you pray so that your call reaches Me? You should not utter a lip prayer, for I will not hear and listen to it because your heart is uninvolved, because you do not establish contact with Me but always remain on earth, because you only practice a form which has no life. But even a prayer of intellect does not reach My ear, even though the human being intellectually acknowledges Me as God and creator from eternity and in this belief in Me utters words through which he believes to have established the connection with Me. I require a different prayer, I require complete trust in Me, I require the plea of a child which recognizes the father in Me and comes to Him in complete trust that He will help it. A child’s trust is the strength of faith and a prayer sent to Me in this way comes from the heart and reaches My ear. Then it is not the human being who talks to God but the child to the father …. Only when a person in the silence of his heart seeks Me in thought, when he converses with Me, when he unadornedly and undisguisedly spreads out before Me everything that oppresses him, when he humbly commends himself to Me and My care, when he has removed all barriers between himself and Me, if he lets Me be present through heartfelt prayer, if he prays in spirit and in truth, then his spirit will swing up to Me, or I, too, will bend down to My child and its plea will not go unheard …. I will not disappoint a child which comes to Me with such faith and complete trust with all its requests, I will also reveal Myself to it as a faithful father, I will not leave it in adversity. I will not let its faith go to waste, for it does not seek Me in the distance, it dares to come to Me and yet remains deeply humble, otherwise it would not pray but demand …. But a prayer of understanding is a demand which the human being makes of Me because he believes himself entitled to it through his acknowledgement of Me …. Such an intellectual prayer lacks profound humility, for where humility is present the intellect is silent but the heart speaks all the louder. You should pray in spirit and in truth …. and you can only do that if you establish the relationship of a child with Me …. Then the path from you to Me is not far, then you can always be with Me in thought, then you will also always draw Me to you, for then your thoughts will always be directed towards Me with love, and I recognize and feel your love and can therefore already have an effect on you through My spirit …. And then you will never make a wrong request, for the father always hears when His child calls to Him ….
Amen

Day of Salvation or Day of Judgment? ….
B.D. 5654 from April 18th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
The day of Salvation is not far away anymore, but will it mean salvation for all human beings? Will it not be a day of Judgment when, instead of being released, they will be banished again in the solid form? And therefore the day can be yearned for but also be dreaded, yet those who would have to fear it don’t believe in it and are therefore irretrievably lost because they don’t do anything in order to avert this renewed banishment from themselves. This day will only be a true salvation for a few people, but they have suffered prior to it already, whereas the others don’t know suffering and therefore do not long for a Redeemer either. And yet He will come and redeem those who believe in Him …. A very difficult time is approaching all believers, but then they should not forget the promise that ‘I will come again to judge the living and the dead …. ‘ The time of hardship shall also be evidence of the truth of My Word to them and they shall believe even more firmly in My coming on the last day, in their deliverance from utmost adversity. It will truly be a day of Salvation for My Own who are tempted to doubt the truth of My Word in view of the disbelievers’ good living standards …. Yet for the sake of the chosen few the days shall be shortened …. I will fortify My Own until the day has come, and it will come sooner than expected ….
The state of the world will seem so peaceful that no-one will believe in an end; for under the authority of the Antichrist the waves of unrest apparently calm down and an earthly progress can be recognised which makes people become ever more ungodly, ever more heartless, and only My Own recognise thereby the hour on the world clock. For only they will have to go hungry and suffer while the rest of humanity will indulge itself and try to find satisfaction in the euphoria of the world. No-one will suspect how close the end is when the Antichrist starts his world dominion. He will instigate the end, he will achieve spiritual chaos, he will cause the battle of faith to erupt and will more or less cause the separation of the spirits, for under his regime the confession will be demanded for Me and My name and thus the final decision will also be made, which still has to take place before the end …. However, as soon as this decision of faith is demanded of you, My faithful followers, you can also brace yourselves for My second coming, for with the ever increasing adversity you will also experience the fulfilment of My predictions concerning the end …. You can expect the end every day and yet, it will come suddenly and unexpected …. But then those for whom this day will bring redemption will be blissfully happy, and there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth by those who will be devoured by the earth, who will be engendered into solid matter again …. You, who believe in Me, trust My Words that you will be delivered from hours of extreme tribulation, that I will come and fetch you and that you therefore should fear nothing on earth, for Mine is the strength and the power and the glory ….
Amen

Total disintegration of Earth …. Spiritualisation ….
B.D. 5655 from April 19th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
A total disintegration of Earth is not yet intended, but the total transformation of the earth’s surface, which certainly also amounts to complete destruction because nothing of substance will be spared since every form will be dissolved in order to release the inherent spiritual substance for the purpose of entering new forms. The complete disintegration of Earth amounts to a spiritualisation, and this moment in time has not arrived as yet, because the earth still serves the imperfect spirits as a place to attain maturity …. As long as spirits in need of attaining maturity still require earthly creations the earth will also remain a material world, yet constantly recurring transformations will be unavoidable, depending on the souls’ state of maturity which are meant to reach perfection on earth. For the earth, however, the moment of its end will always come when such a transformation takes place, for then a new developmental era will start for all spirits, be they embodied in the human being or bound in a solid shell, because to a certain extent the different phases also require different possibilities and those promising to be most successful will repeatedly be created again by God’s great love and wisdom. People lack the knowledge about the individual phases of development, especially during the last days before the end of every era because people’s low spiritual level …. caused by their lack of love …. also signifies ignorance as well as complete incomprehension for such offered information. They liken the end to a total disintegration of earthly-material worlds …. Yet this time is not foreseeable for eternities; every individual phase, however, lasts a certain length of time which starts with the emergence of the most manifold works of creations and ends with their destruction …. which commences with spiritually highly evolved people and comes to its end again with truly diabolical ones ….
One phase of development would never accomplish the spiritualisation of all spiritual beings, for as long as earthly-material creations exist, as long as the earth still shelters creations, apart from the human being, which are inferior to him, such as animals, plants and spirits bound in solid matter, it cannot be totally dissolved, because these spiritual substances must time and again be given the possibility to reach maturity and to leave their present form, which in itself already necessitates new phases once the advancement has come to a standstill. For at the end of every period of Salvation a spiritualisation of people can no longer be noticed, and such failure or non-observance of the true purpose of existence on earth has to be redressed …. these spiritual beings must also be shown a new way, because with God there is no surrender of that which belonged and continues to belong to Him but which must also become the same again as it originated from God …. For even if it inexorably strives towards the abyss He will not leave it in this depth but time and again He will find means and ways to lead it back up to the light. Thus He will never stop this higher development until even the last of the once fallen spirits has found its way back to the Father …. And yet there will always be an ‘end’ again …. an end of every individual phase of specific duration which God granted the spiritual beings but which will also come to an end one day. And this is why you humans cannot carelessly speak of an end of the world, which has to be understood as a complete transience of God’s creation but you should only look at it as a transformation which, however, will be so extensive and inclusive that it is inconceivable to you as human beings and can also only be experienced and observed by God’s few loyal followers who will subsequently testify to God’s might and glory on the new earth …. You humans are approaching such an end even if it appears doubtful to you and your mind wants to reject it …. But also remember the still bound spiritual substances, remember all the creations below you and ask yourselves how these spiritual beings shall attain redemption unless opportunities are created for them time and again. More so, remember the people who totally distanced themselves from God and, after all, cannot live forever on earth …. Then you will understand that God’s love, being full of mercy, tends to all that which is unredeemed and that an apparent work of destruction is an act of profound mercy, because the succeeding new creations will offer the lowest fallen spirits the path of higher development again which can still lead to God one day, if only after an infinitely long time ….

Knowledge of plan of salvation from eternity ….
B.D. 5656 from April 20th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
My eternal plan of salvation would explain many things to you humans and let you recognize My greater than great love and mercy but also My wisdom, yet until love is kindled in you in order to give life to the spiritual spark within you everything will remain incomprehensible to you, and you will not accept the pure knowledge of it either because it is incomprehensible to you as long as your spirit is not enlightened through love and a living faith. For this reason only a few will ever be initiated into My plan of eternity, but these will also be able to convincingly represent everything they know and thus be suitable servants for Me on earth, who can make My will known to people and draw their attention to the purpose and aim of their earthly existence, who can therefore work for Me and My kingdom, as it is My will.
In order to know the complete truth, in order to be able to spread it, the human being must also call this knowledge of My eternal plan of salvation his own, and he can only possess it himself when he has received it through My spirit. And thus you must always differentiate between knowledge given to the human being from outside and knowledge received from within, then it will also be understandable to you that the former is doubted, whereas the knowledge received through the spirit is convincingly supported, for the intellect gladly rejects what the heart accepts without doubt. But My plan of salvation is all-encompassing …. For this reason it cannot be explained intellectually but requires great spiritual knowledge in order to understand Me and My plan of eternity. And this great spiritual knowledge is the result of profound love and living faith …. And therefore the gospel of love must always be proclaimed to people first, they must be stimulated into loving activity, into unselfish activity for their fellow human beings, so that only then will their faith awaken to life and love and faith compel the spirit within them to express itself …. Then everything will become understandable to people, even the seemingly impossible will be believable to them, and then he will gain knowledge about knowledge and light will come into him. If people knew everything they would also live their earthly life consciously, yet knowledge also requires the fulfilment of conditions, because ignorance is a result of sin, of the past apostasy from Me, and thus the distance from Me first has to be reduced through love and faith in order to change the state of ignorance into a state of brightest light, thus fullest knowledge. But the light can only come from within, the spirit has to illuminate the human being from within, only then will everything be understandable to him, only then will he grasp My eternal plan of salvation, and only then will he stand up for Me and My teaching with conviction and eagerness, for then he will know the truth, he will have been taught by Me Myself through My spirit and will now be an efficient servant in My vineyard whose work will also be successful ….
Amen

Why the gospel teaches only love …. deeper knowledge …. (fire of love radiates light and wisdom)
B.D. 5657 from April 21st 1953, taken from Book No. 62
My will is to fulfil the commandments of love, because this alone can give you what you lack …. You entered earthly life completely without knowledge, and you will leave it just as without knowledge if you don’t pay attention to My commandments of love; for what you acquire in intellectual knowledge cannot be regarded as knowledge as soon as you enter the kingdom of the beyond, where only love is valued and therefore only the knowledge which has earned you a life of love …. For you must consider that to be knowledgeable means to have fullest knowledge of your beginning and your destiny …. This knowledge cannot be gained intellectually but it can be gained through a life of unselfish neighbourly love, because love is the fire which radiates light …. thus clearest recognition of all things, both of the spiritual as well as the earthly world and their connections with the creator of infinity.
No light can be given to you without love, because only light comes forth from the fire of love. But you will only be blissfully happy when you stand in the light, when you know everything, for this knowledge is a sign of union with Me, Who wants to prepare these beatitudes for you …. But love ensures your union with Me, for I Myself am love from eternity …. I want to draw you to Myself, I want to make you eternally blessed, I want to give you light …. Therefore I can only advise you to live in love …. And therefore I gave you the commandments of love for Me and for your neighbour, because …. if you fulfil them …. you prepare beatitude for yourselves; because then you enter the love stream which gives you light …. realization, a rich knowledge which increases the deeper love becomes in you and therefore also constantly increases your beatitude.
How this increased happiness expresses itself in the spiritual kingdom cannot be made comprehensible to you who still live on earth. But on earth you can already stand in the most radiant light, thus in a realization which can lift you far above your fellow human beings but which you cannot impart to those who do not live like you on earth, i.e. in constant loving activity. For knowledge cannot be conveyed, it has to be gained through love itself …. Intellectual knowledge can indeed be transferred, it can be adopted and further developed, but intellectual knowledge is worthless for eternity …. Realization, however, is spiritual knowledge, clarity about things and correlations which cannot be researched and proven on earth but which constitute true life, which are everlasting and retain their value eternally. Spiritual knowledge will never be accepted by an intellectual person who does not live in love, for he lacks light and therefore recognizes nothing because he walks in darkness. In contrast, the spirit of a person who works with love is enlightened, even if his intellect is not sharp and he therefore attracts little attention from his fellow human beings. And this light will never go out and also emit its rays in the spiritual kingdom …. he will always be able to give because he possesses ….
And therefore the gospel only teaches love, I Myself gave people the path which leads to Me, to eternal light …. The proclamation of profound truths would have been completely useless because only people willing to love would have understood them, whereas they would only have made others confused and unfree and yet would never have found acceptance, thus such knowledge would have been conveyed to people for no purpose at all …. but which they could gain at any time if only they fulfilled My commandments of love. No person will be denied knowledge which he desires. But people who live without love never desire the right knowledge, they fear the truth and don’t want to hear it …. and therefore can never receive it until they change to love, which also results in a change of their knowledge. But without love there is no brightness of spirit, without love there is no knowledge which corresponds to truth, and without love the pure truth is never recognized and therefore always rejected, which signifies spiritual darkness ….
Amen

Rejecting the truth …. fighting light and darkness ….
B.D. 5658 from April 22nd 1953, taken from Book No. 62
The pure truth will always be attacked because the battle of darkness against the light will not cease, because My adversary knows that his dominion and power are at stake, thus the untruth will be uncovered and the light of truth will illuminate his activities. For this very reason it will be a sign for the pure truth if it is opposed, for everything that is misguided will find far easier acceptance amongst people than the truth. The truth will only be recognized where people’s degree of maturity is already higher due to their desire for Me and a life of love. And thus you, My bearers of light, will always be attacked by most and only recognized by very few. But don’t let yourselves be distracted by this, don’t let your spiritual activity be hindered and don’t judge those who are still blind in spirit. Sometimes they also want what is right and only do not see it because they are still blind. And you will not be able to give them the light either, because they do not want to accept it, because they fear the pure truth. That is why they are content with half truths, they do not recognize where error has crept in, but they defend this error with tenacity, precisely because they are still blind in spirit. You know why darkness is spread across the earth in the last days and therefore people’s rejection, their fight against the truth, should also be understandable to you, but nevertheless you should not tire of standing up for the truth where there is still a possibility to fight for it. Again and again you will find people who listen and are delighted by what you announce to them. And even if it is only one person at a time …. it is a great benefit for Me and My kingdom if one person only accepts the truth …. For he, too, will work for Me again with words or also with deeds, i.e. he will again be an example for others through his way of life, which can have just as much effect as the spoken word. Yet you yourselves must always hold on to the truth, you must never forget where the source of the knowledge you possess is, you must not take offence at your fellow human beings’ rejection of you but eagerly strive to serve as bearers of truth, thus be eager fighters for Me in the battle between light and darkness who fight for Me and My teaching with the sword of the mouth, for one day the truth will be revealed …. The prince of darkness will soon have played out on this earth, then a bright light will shine and in the light of eternal truth a new time will begin again where I alone will reign and be recognized as the original light from eternity ….
Amen

Large period between the beginning and end of an epoch ….
B.D. 5659 from April 24th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
The processes on earth which accompany the end of a developmental period and the beginning of a new one repeat themselves at long intervals, so that in the end no human being can prove the beginning of those periods of time and consequently no evidence can be produced for a destruction at such an end either. And this is God’s will so that people do not have to believe if they do not want to believe. The end of a previous period is certainly known to people but only as traditional knowledge, which can also be doubted. At the beginning people still know about the process of the end, and this knowledge will also be preserved in the descendants for many generations, but the closer it gets to the end of such a period of development the more this knowledge will fade, it will certainly still be mentioned but no longer be regarded as an established fact and in the end only be regarded as a legend which is not historically proven. The believers certainly consider all indications of it to be truth but they are not believers because they see the end coming and are afraid of it, instead, faith also carries a higher power of realization to them and therefore the end of the earth is also understandable to them. And so even today people cannot be frightened by references to the flood because they hardly believe in it any more. This time is so far in the past that it has become completely meaningless for the people who will live on earth in the last days. But most people don’t know and understand that this time has also ended a period of redemption and consider it quite impossible that the same process should repeat itself …. And it all has to be like this for the sake of people’s freedom of will. Every coercion which is intended to bring about a change in a person’s thinking and will would be wrong where it concerns the ascent development which is intended to take place in complete freedom of will; people can believe what is proclaimed to them but they can also turn away their ears and intellectually reject everything, they must not be forced by any evidence to think and act against their will. An infinitely long time lasts for a phase of development on the part of people, and this, too, is the will of the divine creator, so that their attitude in the last days will remain unaffected, so that they can believe in an end but also doubt it, so that they can therefore also make the final decision of faith, for or against God, completely without constraint. There is no lack of indications on God’s part about the near end, and people are also given the reason for the end, yet their will always remains free and even the divine prophecies do not oblige them to do anything, because they are likewise given in such a way that they can be accepted but also rejected if the will is not present to live and act in accordance with divine will. This will alone gives clarity, and this will will also not refuse to accept the proclamations through seers and prophets …. And likewise, the person who carries such a will within himself will also believe in the previous periods and their end and be convinced that the end is imminent again, because everything will come as God had it proclaimed in word and scripture ….
Amen

Struggle of faith …. power to confess ….
B.D. 5660 from April 26th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
If you humans knew about the suffering of the coming time, about the battle which will be waged against those who believe in Me, you would then also understand why I first convey My word to earth, why I Myself descend to earth …. You would realize that you first have to strengthen your faith in order to take everything upon yourselves so as not to fail in this battle of faith. Pure truth gives you strength because you receive pure truth from Me, because you draw it from My word which is blessed with My strength. Unbelieving people will be little affected by My word conveyed to earth as well as by this battle, because it does not apply to them but is still promoted by them. The believers, however, will have to suffer greatly, for not only will they be deprived of what they need as nourishment for their soul but they will be forced by brutal measures to deny their faith. And it will be difficult to stand firm and quite impossible where living faith is missing …. For only this will give them strength, only living faith signifies intimate contact with Me and thereby immediate strength. But living faith shall be awakened through My word …. I therefore appeal to you humans that you, if My words touch you inwardly, establish contact with Me, Who can then always convey to you what you need …. Strength and light in order to be able to offer resistance if action is taken against you. I know about the lukewarmness of people who also think they are believers but will fall down at the slightest impulse because their faith is not a living one. And I want to come to the aid of all these …. I know what tribulation they are exposed to and yet I have to allow it in order to awaken them to life, for what they previously only fulfilled as a form shall now stimulate them to think and cause them to take a stand. Anyone who easily gives up his faith in Me was already like a dead leaf which falls off and is chased away by the slightest breeze …. he need not suffer in the battle waged for the sake of faith, but he will have to suffer all the more after the end, which will not be long in coming …. But anyone who already has a small degree of realization will suddenly know what this last battle means, and he will attach the greatest value to My words which announced what is now coming to pass. I have known about the coming time since eternity, and you humans can recognize My concern for you by the transmission of My word, which is intended to make you strong and resilient when the decision also approaches you …. Suffering for the sake of faith is difficult as long as your innermost conviction, your living faith, does not give you strength; then, however, even the strongest earthly force is unable to shake it. Then the human being will gladly and joyfully confess My name before the world, for then he will draw all strength to resist from My word, he will accept the strength from Me Myself, and he will truly remain victorious in the last battle on this earth ….
Amen

Transmission of spiritual messages …. love and wisdom …. humility ….
B.D. 5661 from April 28th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Only a few people have the grace of divine instruction, and it is given to them to hear the voice of the spirit within themselves, as soon as they are to utilize the received spiritual knowledge as teaching material again, as soon as they work as servants in the vineyard of the lord and want to carry the gospel out into the world. Every such spiritual instruction from above …. because the spirit in the human being is part of God …. bears the stamp of divine love and wisdom and can therefore be evaluated as purest truth. The place of origin of the received is the spiritual kingdom, because the transmitters of the messages belong to this kingdom and because the transmission is an act of transferring and passing on divine strength and belongs to the blissful activity of the blissful spirit world. A divine spark of strength slumbers in the human being which, through ignition and constant supply, increases more and more and finally becomes one with the fire of eternal love. What the human being lacks on earth is strength and light …. and both will be supplied to him through the right way of life by bearers of strength and light who are constantly fed by the eternal source of strength and light and can therefore also constantly distribute it ….. You humans must first really understand this process in order to then also understand that light and strength are equal to brightest knowledge and the ability to master everything on earth, to be able to accomplish everything …. The gift of healing the sick or working other miracles cannot be learned but can be acquired by opening oneself to the light and strength which flows directly from the original source of light and strength when the human being turns to God directly and asks Him for it in the firm belief that he can also receive light and strength directly from God and use what he receives with a loving heart for the blessing of those who are completely without light and strength …. Then there are no limits set by God for the receipt of light and strength. And the human being will be introduced to all wisdom, and he will always move in truth, in right thinking and brightest recognition. But truth is offered to the human being in such a way that it is also comprehensible to him, otherwise he would not be able to do anything with knowledge which he is now to pass on to his fellow human beings. And therefore God also enlightens the human being’s spirit, together with the truth He also gives the power of realization, the ability to judge …. and thus also the ability to recognize error which often wants to creep in as truth, offered by beings which are hostile to the truth. But as long as people are on earth for the purpose of ascent development, light and darkness will fight for the souls, and where truth shines forth from God as light, darkness will also send its messengers to extinguish this light again. And because people are to be educated to become bearers of light who still dwell in dark surroundings themselves, because the earth is not a kingdom of light, dark forces also have access, and they work with cunning and deceit. The human being is also exposed to their activity because he is not yet perfect, yet he can protect himself through God’s call, which is always heard. The human being can erect barriers himself which are insurmountable for the forces of darkness if he establishes the bond with God so firmly that His presence spreads such a bright ray of light that the dark beings fall to the ground blinded and are unable to approach the human being. From which it follows that God and the truth must be so deeply and intimately desired that every error is denied access, for God respects this desire for Him and fulfils it ….
(28.4.1953) But He also respects its free will …. And therefore God’s adversary can slip in where he is granted shelter. He can prevent the working of the spirit in the human being as soon as he only finds a quality related to his nature which serves him, as it were, as a bridge to enter the human being’s world of thoughts …. A quality related to him, as there are: pride, envy, avarice, covetousness, earthly lusts, among which carnality is the worst …. Only a hint of these faults needs to appear in him, then he already gives the enemy of his soul a handle, which he certainly knows how to use. And then the human being’s thinking is no longer free from error either, because God’s spirit cannot work where God’s adversary is at work. A spiritually awakened person will indeed rarely accept spiritual instruction in a state of such weakness where he allows God’s adversary access to him, he will rarely establish contact with God when he is under the spell of a passion, a bad habit or a sinful desire, but one thing can darken his spirit at any time: spiritual arrogance …. a mistake into which a person entrusted with a mission can easily fall, that he thinks himself great and exalted above his fellow human beings and in such self-conceit now seeks to establish contact in order to receive spiritual good …. Then there is the greatest danger that God’s adversary will intervene and teach him, because the human being opens his heart which, however, will not receive any light but will be darkened …. Spiritual arrogance has already caused many people to fall, for arrogance is a part of him who is the ruler of darkness. The human being remains weak and exposed to temptations as long as he stays on earth, yet if he turns to God in profound humility he will also be assured of His protection. Yet he must always struggle and have a great desire for truth, and he must want to serve God …. Then he will always have the beings of light at his side who will protect him as long as he receives spiritual knowledge but who will also prevent him from receiving it if he is in danger of succumbing to the adversary’s influence …. But as soon as a person offers to do vineyard work for love of God and his fellow human beings his services will be accepted, and then the beings of light will form a wall around this servant who will then be instructed by the spirit of God, for God protects His work and thus also His servants from error because He wants the truth to be spread, because He wants a light to be conveyed to people which shall illuminate the darkness in which humanity languishes, especially in the last days before the end ….

No God of wrath and vengeance …. love and mercy ….
B.D. 5662 from April 29th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Myself take pity on humanity and nothing happens on My part to increase the state of misery they are in; nothing happens which could be interpreted as wrath and punishment by Me but I only ever endeavour to bring help, to lead people out of their self-chosen and self-created state. My patience is endless and My love determines all My rule and activity. For I see where people’s actions lead to, I know their fate which they are heading towards and I cannot prevent it because I cannot take people’s free will away from them. You would understand all this if love were in you, then the spiritual blindness would be remedied, and a seeing person also takes the right path and also reaches the aim. But you are without love and therefore miserable …. I want to help you, but do you accept My help? You turn away from Me when I approach you and stretch out My hands to you, you blindly continue to walk towards the abyss, for your will is stronger than your love, and this will is wrongly directed. And I cannot rectify it by force, otherwise you would remain what you are now, directed beings who could never become blissfully happy. I will never turn away from you, even if you always strive more and more towards the abyss, I will always follow you with My love and mercy, I will entice and call you but never force you to follow Me …. Yet I use all means to protect you from further decline. And these means are cause for you to regard Me as a God of wrath and vengeance, providing you still believe in a God Who created you. But I would like to prove My love to you in order to win your love too, yet you don’t recognize Me because you are blind in spirit …. I truly don’t hold it against you, yet you create a fate for yourselves which is agonizing and lasts an infinitely long time until relief comes …. Therefore much suffering will still pass over the earth, which is the only means to turn your will towards Me, and blessed is he who then flees to Me in his distress, for the greatest danger is averted from him that he will again have to dwell in darkness for an infinitely long time, that he will be banished anew on the day of judgment …. He has allowed himself to be pulled back from the edge of the abyss, he has taken hold of My hand which now no longer lets him fall but slowly helps him upwards ….

Mental disorders – temptations …. patience ….
B.D. 5663 from April 30th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Every spiritual exchange assures you spiritual protection as long as you only desire the truth. Nevertheless, you can be disturbed in such a way that you are prevented from gathering yourselves inwardly, because the forces of darkness use every opportunity to prevent the supply of truth. If they cannot influence you from the spiritual kingdom by feeding you error, they will use people on earth to prevent you, but this will only be detrimental to you if you allow yourselves to be aroused by such disturbances. Then they can certainly book a success for themselves but never endanger the spiritual exchange itself. You must regard everything as God’s permission and know that you, too, must often be tested, that you must practice patience and gentleness and that you will always have achieved victory if you always calmly and equanimously face everything that concerns you, for you will only mature if you no longer offer the enemy of the souls a point of attack.
He rejoices over every defeat of yours, which can already be regarded as an inner agitation or impatience. And He will refrain from His efforts when everything bounces off you, when you are in fullest harmony of soul and accept everything as God’s will or His permission. But the spiritual exchange is not endangered by the fact that you are occasionally hindered, instead, your desire for it will increase and your spiritual work will always be carried out more eagerly where the desire for God and truth fills the human being. For no dark power can diminish or even kill this desire, because the beings of light always influence the human being such that he will not neglect to seek God and truth, and the influence of the beings of light will always be stronger than the power of darkness ….
Amen

Work for the kingdom of God …. good house father ….
B.D. 5664 from May 1st 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Working for God and His kingdom is truly the most beautiful activity on this earth, for the success of this work does not fade away forever, it is not futile work because it will one day lead to the aim after all, even if no success can be seen at first. The work for God and His kingdom is, as it were, the switching on of the activity of the inhabitants of the kingdom of light who always do God’s kingdom work and are tirelessly active in order to serve God and all still imperfect beings. God always needs labourers for His vineyard, He constantly accepts servants and maidservants to whom He assigns work according to their strength and will to work. And all will find much work and must not be lukewarm or indifferent if they want to faithfully carry out the work for God; but all will also find supports who introduce them to the activity, who make them capable of it and are therefore advisors and leaders for them in the work in the vineyard of the lord. And no helpful person will be rejected, all can participate in the work of salvation, in the spiritual activity which surpasses every earthly work in success and blessing. What a person acquires through earthly work he only has on loan as long as he lives on earth; spiritual work, however, creates everlasting values which are only truly recognized after the death of the body but which then make the soul unspeakably happy and give it the opportunity in the kingdom of the beyond to continue to work for the kingdom of God, in a different way but in an ever more pleasing form. It is a serving activity which, however, can only be carried out by a person who has already acquired wealth on earth, which will only benefit him in the kingdom of the beyond, because the distribution of his wealth increases his bliss, because without possessions he can never give anything away, but the constant giving only signifies bliss. On earth, the work of the kingdom of God seems useless because earthly goods cannot be acquired through it …. But in the kingdom of the beyond every soul is happy if it can participate in God’s kingdom work. And only then will it get to know the value of spiritual treasures which it often carelessly passed by on earth. And it is grateful when spiritual goods are offered to it by the beings of light and only then does it grasp the blessing of such goods. But anyone who already works for God and His kingdom on earth need no longer call himself poor, he already has wealth on earth with which he can work for the benefit of his fellow human beings, and he will never again enjoy the world and its pleasures, for earthly goods are insignificant compared to the goods of the spiritual kingdom. Working for God and His kingdom also ensures the human being a carefree existence on earth, for God is a good father of the house Who truly provides for His servants such that they need not live in want, but Who also demands eager and conscientious work from all those who voluntarily enter His service …. And He will bless their work and be to them all a good lord and householder, Who rewards every labour, as He has promised ….
Amen

Will to God …. power in the last fight …. power from God ….
B.D. 5665 from May 2nd 1953, taken from Book No. 62
You need not fear the end if only you have the will to remain faithful to Me, if your thoughts and endeavours are directed towards attaining spiritual maturity, if only you want to be willing to comply with Me …. Then everything will approach you such that you will always think, speak and act as is right. Then your heart will not be seized by fear but you will have strength of will so that you will face everything that comes upon you with your head held high. I know the will of the individual, and according to this will I provide him with strength and grace. As long as you strive for Me and My kingdom you need not fear the world or its rulers, who are also under My will. The coming time will certainly make demands on you but you yourselves will grow with these demands, you will master things which previously seemed overwhelming to you, and everything will take care of itself as long as only your thoughts remain turned towards Me, as long as they don’t allow themselves to be captured by the world, which will also approach you with its temptations the closer it gets to the end. Yet this is the greatest danger for you, that you turn your eyes and senses towards the world …. But he who has overcome the world need not fear the coming time, the battle of faith and the end, for he has already won …. Me and My kingdom …. and he can no longer lose anything. Anyone who earnestly seeks Me will also find Me, anyone who has found Me will no longer want to give Me up, and I will also keep him firm and strengthen him against all temptations which approach every person as long as he still lives on earth. And so that you don’t slacken in your desire for Me, so that you don’t become weak in the afflictions caused by earthly power, I will also force Myself ever more into your thoughts and truly have stronger power over you than My adversary …. For as long as your will is meant for Me it has no power over you. And therefore fear nothing, whatever may come; I know about everything and guide you such that you unite with Me ever more intimately, that you find your bliss in the hours of silent dialogue with Me, that you use every opportunity to take refuge in My arms, that you always draw comfort and strength when you let Me speak to you …. I repeatedly come to you in the word and thus directly impart the strength to you which will make you strong and resilient so that you need not fear the coming time …. For My own possess My love and are never forsaken by Me …. And My own include all who love Me and keep My commandments, who work for Me and My kingdom …. who are willingly devoted to Me and want to remain faithful to Me until the end ….
Amen

Bliss in the kingdom of light …. Pleasures and delights ….
B.D. 5666 from May 3rd 1953, taken from Book No. 62
A blissfully happy life awaits My Own in the spiritual kingdom when they depart from this earth, when they have concluded their course of life and are able to shed the earthly form for good. Everything that had weighed them down will fall away from them, they will feel free and light and be received into the kingdom of light whose occupants will come to meet them in order to guide them into their own sphere …. It is impossible to describe to you humans the delights they will experience and how the kingdom they now inhabit is designed …. It entails extrasensory shapes and concepts, it is an entirely different sphere for which nothing on earth could be used as a comparison and yet the souls quickly find their way around, they know that it is their true home, for the soul will have received its past awareness again and will be abundantly happy because it will recognise the infinite love and grace with which I had guided it from beginning until it has reached the goal. A person on earth cannot feel these beatitudes which await him there, being still earthbound he only has limited feelings and he would die were the soul able to behold these glories while it is still on earth, but now he can enjoy them ceaselessly without fading away. However, through love for Me and his fellow human being the human being on earth makes himself more or less receptive for the emanations of light, in which he then can constantly move in the spiritual realm and experience immense happiness. It is the happiness of reciprocated love which, however, always impels loving activity as well, because the soul now wants to give as it receives, because it cannot help itself but to provide happiness to those who are still unhappy …. A person’s will on earth guarantees the souls ascent, nevertheless, it must be serious, it must turn to Me deep within the heart, it must not merely express itself with empty words which I always recognise as empty, which are not spoken in spirit and in truth and which are not felt either if the mouth does not voice them. But anyone who has a serious intention will reach his goal. And the promised beatitudes awaiting him shall also make him humbly bear the suffering, for this only raises the degree of beatitude in the spiritual kingdom, otherwise the soul will still have to go through dark spheres and will require a long time before it can enter the kingdom of light. And no being which longs for Me and My love need truly do without Me …. I will illuminate it and place it in a state of supreme bliss, I will change all suffering and misery into pleasure and delight, I will recompense a thousand fold what a person takes upon himself because He loves Me, and I will royally reward those who fight for Me and My kingdom on this earth …. I have prepared a fate for them in the house of the Father which will make them eternally happy.
Amen

Right path with Jesus Christ as leader ….
B.D. 5667 from May 4th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
The ways to Me need not always be the same, but I must always be the aim for people to reach, and all ways must lead upward. He who walks on a level path cannot reach the aim, and the paths downward infallibly lead to ruin; but whoever strives upward, whoever wants to find Me, I Myself draw him there …. But when is your way directed upward? When you choose Jesus Christ as your leader, Who is the way Himself. So every person who acknowledges Jesus Christ, who believes in Him as the son of God and redeemer of the world, has taken the right path; he is now led on by Him who said, “I am the way, the truth and the life ….” And to be under the guidance of Jesus Christ therefore also means to be introduced to the truth and through the truth to attain life, which lasts forever. Truth is the light that brightly illuminates the path, so that straying from this path is not possible, while darkness of spirit, i.e. error and lies, darken the right path and the danger is great to get on another path that leads astray. Since Jesus Christ Himself is the truth, whoever wants to walk the path with Jesus must also accept the truth, he must receive the word of God, which Jesus Christ preached on earth, in all purity, he must let it take effect on him and thus now also do the will of God …. for this is the right path, that man fulfills His commandments in order to be able to enter eternal life. When Jesus Himself says on earth: I am the truth …. then it is absolutely necessary to accept as truth everything that He has spoken and taught …. And every deviation from this original teaching is error, is untruth and is therefore not God’s word …. It can therefore also not be the way that leads to me, because this way can only be walked through truth. Understand it, the aim is Me …. The way to Me is Jesus Christ …. The man Jesus was the representative of truth on earth, in Him I was Myself, and I can therefore allow nothing but truth to apply, and I will again and again convey this truth to those who walk along in error, I will always proclaim this truth through Jesus Christ …. by His word spoken on earth, the gospel, being brought to people again and again, who will then have the right understanding for it, as well as (they = ed.) confess Jesus Christ in their hearts and before the world …. As soon as they therefore recognize Him as My messenger, as mediator, Who wants to bring them to Me Himself. And His word is life, because His word teaches love, which is the true life, which awakens the spirit and guides the person into all truth …. Believing in Jesus Christ means fulfilling His commandments, and then a person takes the right path that leads to eternal life …. For he then treads the path of love, which must be walked in order to reach the light and the truth. And so you have the mark of the right path …. a life in unselfish love activity …. So every way leads to the aim that lets love be recognized, and every way that is walked without love is even or it leads downward. Because love is the signpost, love is the giver of strength to master difficult to pass ways to the height, love is the sign of the connection with Jesus, Whose life on earth was only an activity in love and therefore also the sign of the union with me, Who became visible to men in Jesus Christ, Who therefore leads you Himself, if you choose Jesus Christ as your guide. Love itself meets you and wants to show you the way which leads to the union with me …. The eternal love itself teaches you love because only then you can receive and recognize the pure truth when through love the spirit in you is awakened …. because only then I become alive in you, because only then I can be present in you when love has formed you to the receptacle of My spirit, which now introduces you to truth, and My spirit truly teaches you right, and he will live in eternity who walks this way of love because he walks in the following of Jesus ….
Amen

Truth – lie …. light and darkness ….
B.D. 5668 from May 5th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Untruth can lead to serious consequences, for evil will always give birth to evil. The spirit of falsehood emanates from the prince of darkness and causes darkness to spread wherever he is at work. But darkness can only be countered with light in order to chase it away …. The lie can only be countered with truth in order to expose and brand it. And truth emanates from Me, thus I radiate My strength against darkness, or the light also leads the battle against darkness. The world would truly be in a better state if doors were opened to truth, yet people love darkness and are far more closed to truth than to error and lies. And where My adversary knows how to cloak untruth, where he knows how to spread error under the guise of a preacher of truth, he has already darkened the light and often succeeds in extinguishing it completely because people don’t guard the light, because they don’t protect it …. because they feel comfortable in the darkness. Light and darkness are opposites, just as I and My adversary pursue completely opposite aims.
And so it must now also be understandable to you that I am never to be found on the same road where My adversary walks …. The light is waging a battle against the darkness and does not fight with the same means …. the truth is and remains clear and understandable and will always oppose untruth and never go along with it for the sake of appearances, which means as much as that I cannot agree when untruth is advocated and only tolerate it because I gave people free will, which, however, does not mean that I approve of it. Wherever misguided teachings have crept into My pure gospel I will never offer My hand to stamp these teachings with truth, instead I will always oppose them and kindle the light where such is desired. My special love applies to misguided people when I recognize their good will and their love for Me. I then value their will and their love and do not condemn them for accepting lies and error. But I also seek to bring light to them, which can happen all the more easily the deeper they stand in love …. Then they will recognize the error themselves and turn more and more towards the truth …. And if they don’t want to or are unable to accept it because they cannot resist My adversary’s activity as weak people, they will suddenly realize in the spiritual kingdom where to look for the real truth …. For every person must come to the truth if he wants to reach the light …. And blessed is he who can already free himself from darkness on earth, blessed is he who possesses the courage and strength to detach himself from misguided thoughts, blessed is he who seriously desires the truth on earth and requests it from Me …. I Myself will instruct him so that there will be light in his heart, so that the spiritual darkness will disappear and he will become clairvoyant ….
Amen

Spiritual work in all schools of thought …. right representatives ….
B.D. 5669 from May 6th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
All who testify from My spirit are My representatives on earth …. All who carry Me alive in their hearts are filled by My spirit if they testify of Me, for I can reveal Myself to them through the spirit, and then they speak the pure truth because I Myself put the words into their mouths, because it is I Myself Who speaks through them ….
This is why there can be true representatives in all schools of thought as soon as the proclaimers of My teaching are so intimately united with Me that My presence is assured and then pure truth is also guaranteed. For then they will only be able to speak in My spirit, they will keep silent about what has crept in as error, then they will always use what completely corresponds to the truth as the content of their speeches, because it is My spirit which guides them. This is why there are powerful speakers in all schools of thought, in all denominations, who appeal to people’s hearts, who are successful with those who are of good will. They proclaim the word of God with zeal, they are convinced disciples who carry My gospel out into all the world …. But they also live in love, otherwise My spirit’s working in them is impossible …. This is the sign whether a person is a true proclaimer of My teaching, that he practices love himself, that he is so permeated by love for Me and his neighbour that I Myself can be present in him and therefore he is a suitable instrument for Me. Where love can be recognized let yourselves be instructed, there accept My word, for there you will be truthfully instructed, there you will be able to be informed, because there I Myself am where love is …. For My word can also be preached without life, it can be transmitted by letter and will be without strength and appeal little to the hearers unless they are full of desire for My word …. Then My spirit enlightens their thinking, and they can also bring the dead word itself to life, it will be as comprehensible to them as if a love-filled, spirit-enlightened proclaimer had presented it to them …. My word has power within itself which comes to fruition through love in the human being …. The love-filled proclaimer can radiate this strength to the listeners, but the listener must also be love-filled with desire for My word so that it will be a blessing for him. This is why you humans can safely give your ear to every proclaimer of God’s word; as soon as you have the profound desire to hear Me yourselves you will also hear Me; yet without spirit commanded and without spirit received it remains a dead word without blessing and strength …. I truly protect all who are of good will from erroneous thoughts as soon as they seriously strive towards the truth, as soon as they turn to Me Myself that I may enlighten their spirit. But anyone who is lukewarm and indifferent, who listens to what is proclaimed to him without an inner urge to know the truth, his thoughts will be confused and darkened, for he does nothing to provide himself with light, he lets himself be driven without thinking about where he is being driven to. And this person is truly only granted the fate which he himself is responsible for …. ignorance or erroneous knowledge, which will never help him attain maturity of soul. And he will never be able to excuse himself with having been wrongly instructed, for it was his will alone which caused his ignorant state. But anyone who wants to live in truth will also be taught the truth if he turns to Me Myself, Who is the truth from eternity ….
Amen

The works of the flesh will be revealed …. Beyond ….
B.D. 5670 from May 7th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
The actions you accomplish on earth have an effect in the spiritual realm …. These are therefore works carried out by the flesh, which can be beneficial or evil, depending on which impulse caused them. For the human being can listen to the voice of his spirit but also to the voice of the world, which tries to influence the body and the body’s desire more often than not contradicts the urging of the spirit. The spirit, however, urges loving actions, and if the human being, who lives on earth in the flesh, acts accordingly he will accomplish works of love and subsequently also receive his reward according to these works, whereas the body’s desire is always based on selfish love and the works of self-interest will likewise be remunerated in the beyond, albeit not in a way that denotes happiness. Yet people who merely selfishly create and work in order to improve their body’s sense of well-being have already received their reward …. they have created their earthly fate of pleasures and enjoyments and are not entitled to be rewarded in the kingdom of the beyond because they are lacking love, which alone is valued by God …. And thus a person can live on earth in affluence and happiness, if he does not use his wealth for kind-hearted activity then no good works will follow him and he will enter the kingdom of the beyond in a poor and wretched state, then the works of the flesh will be evident and he will be judged according to these works …. For he did not lack the strength on earth to be active according to God’s will. But if he arrives in a deprived state on the other side he will also lack the strength to catch up on what he neglected to do on earth, then he will be dependent upon help to receive what he is in need of. Nevertheless, even this help presupposes his will as it did on earth, and a soul’s will in the beyond is rarely different from what it was on earth. And on earth it was only his will which prevented him from carrying out kind-hearted activities, because his selfish love was too strong and he did not rise above himself. As you work on earth in the flesh, that is how your reward will be in the spiritual realm …. And what you neglected to do on earth, even though you were able to do it, will likewise be taken into account as a shortcoming, for which you will have to justify yourselves one day. Therefore create and work for eternity, don’t value earthly life too highly, consider the soul’s fate after the body’s death and create for that life, make sure that only works of love will be revealed on the last day, on the day you depart from this earth when you will be judged according to your works …. for you can only be rewarded for works of love, because these works will follow you into eternity ….
Amen

Foreign Gods …. ceremonies …. bowl – core …. truth ….
B.D. 5671 from May 9th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
I would like to convey the truth to all people in order to help them attain beatitude, yet I usually encounter resistance because My adversary is just as anxious to spread untruth in order to strengthen himself and his power. Anyone who knows about the correlations, about the battle between light and darkness, about the opposition of My former bearer of light, who knows about the conditions which bring about the union with Me, will also know why the truth is always under attack, why the great spiritual darkness is on earth, which is synonymous with complete lack of knowledge, with people’s confused thinking and misguided views. He will also understand that My adversary constantly seeks to increase the darkness, that he does not cease to blind people and that no means is too bad for him if he can undermine the truth through it.
And he will always use such means which appear good and pious because he first deceives people so that they shall not recognize his activity. Precisely those people he fears losing are exposed to his deceptive intentions, and he will have an easy time with them if they are indeed outwardly but not deeply inwardly united with Me, if they therefore have an inclination towards externalities which often accompany religious activity, so-called worship which, however, is more idolatry because too much attention is paid to dead matter and because the ‘shell’ touches the human being more than the core. Understand it …. where the human being sinks into his inner self, where he shuts himself off from the world and focuses his eyes on Me alone, there no illusions can deceive his senses, there no spirit of lies can find entrance, for there I am and protect My children from My adversary’s error and deception. But where this inner gathering is lacking, where the eyes rest complacently on externals, where ceremonies are performed, where the spiritual forces itself out of the realm of matter, there the influences on the soul are also impure, and they make the soul susceptible to all kinds of illusions and dazzling lights, for everything that enters human hearts from outside brings impure currents with it and, as it were, denies Me access to the heart, which is now filled with such spiritual currents emanating from the one who is lord of matter and who also wants to assert himself in people’s hearts …. And this one also expresses himself so obviously where he is given the opportunity that he can be recognized by people devoted to Me but is acknowledged by the superficial followers as the representative of My kingdom …. He has great power, and especially in the time of the end, but he always needs people’s approval for this, he cannot express himself in an area which is inhabited by Me, but certainly where the world is still in the foreground.
There is his kingdom, there he wreaks havoc wherever he can. And there is only one remedy …. the intimate living connection with Me, which eliminates all his activity and makes it impossible. Where I Myself am put on the back burner, where, as it were, other gods exist next to Me, he has already won the game, for he then intervenes as one of the gods, precisely because he wants to oust Me, because he has declared war on Me, because he wants to dethrone Me, but he will never succeed. For I am the truth and I will convey the truth to people who are of good will …. These will always know to distinguish truth from error and lies because they are in living contact with Me ….
Amen

Test of will on earth …. following Jesus …. connection ….
B.D. 5672 from May 10th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Only in union with Me will you find your bliss …. You once voluntarily separated yourselves from Me and thereby became blissfully unhappy, you must voluntarily return to Me in order to also be placed into the state of beatitude, which can therefore only be found in the union with Me. Nothing can replace what you find in Me and with Me, and therefore every striving in a different direction is an idle run for your soul which is only held up on the path to perfection, which only prolongs its return to Me as soon as it strives towards a different aim than unification with Me. I alone want to be your aim, because I alone can give you the beatitude which you have lost through your own fault. Therefore, all My care will be to turn your will towards Me, I will always guide you or arrange your destiny such that you will be urged to take refuge in Me …. yet always respecting your free will. But because your will itself is decisive there is also the danger that you will direct it wrongly, that you will strive for something else and thus delay your return to Me. For My adversary likewise tries to determine your will, even though he cannot forcefully influence you. He always presents you with other aims which you should pursue in order to distract you from the only right aim …. But you will hardly reach your aim by detours. Your time on earth as a human being will pass quickly, you are only granted a short period of time during which you can achieve the final unification with Me, and as soon as you don’t use this short time wisely it will be lost for you. Through Jesus Christ the path has been clearly shown to you humans where you can attain complete unification with Me; you only need to take the path of following Jesus in order to safely reach Me, yet you must consciously travel this path, you must stretch out your hands towards Me so that I can grasp you …. Hence you must mentally enter into contact with Me through heartfelt prayer and receive the strength from Me through a life of love, which now already proves the entered connection with Me. Only in this way can you reach your aim on earth, only in this way will you fulfil your earthly task, only in this way will you consciously turn your will over to Me and be accepted by Me. Your earthly life is only intended to test your will, which once turned away from Me and towards My adversary and which should now detach itself from him and fully surrender to Me again …. You should enter into direct contact with Me …. Do you understand what I ask of you? That I alone want to fill your heart, that you should prepare it for Me alone, that I want to be your lord and king, that I cannot tolerate any foreign gods next to Me to whom you turn your thoughts, because then they will always stand in the way of a complete union with Me, for I want to possess your undivided love, your undivided heart and your will. Once you were supposed to decide between Me and My adversary, but you followed him in blind love and left Me. So you should now leave everything on earth and follow Me alone …. then you will pass your test of earthly life, you will direct your will correctly and acquire the right to eternal beatitude again. And because your past apostasy from Me was due to the fact that you were unable to see Me, because I wanted to make the path of return to Me easy for you, I Myself became visible to you in Jesus Christ, so that you should now love Him and strive towards Him and thereby profess Me, Who embodied Myself in Jesus Christ in order to be a visible God for you humans, to Whom you can now give all your love and acquire His love, Who wants to receive you into His kingdom in order to prepare eternal bliss for you, which you can only enjoy in complete union with Me ….

Connection with God …. blessing for proclaimers of the gospel ….
B.D. 5673 from May 11th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
You will never lose Me again in eternity once you have made contact with Me of your own free will …. for this means that you will no longer be abandoned by Me once your will has turned towards Me. But you will also no longer want to go without Me, for you will find peace of mind once you have recognized Me and now consciously strive towards Me. You will recognize everything as empty and stale which is part of My adversary, that is, what the world offers you. It will no longer satisfy you, it will no longer make you happy, you have overcome the world because you strive for My kingdom, which is not of this world. Yet in order to first find Me, in order to establish the connection with Me, you must be informed that you have a creator and father from eternity Who loves you and wants to make you blissfully happy …. You must hear My word, you must know what I say to people …. For you must get to know Me in order to be able to love Me, and you must love Me in order to strive for Me …. Thus My word is conveyed to you first, which is intended to open up knowledge about Me to you, and I Myself commission those who convey this word to you humans, they are My servants on earth, My messengers, who receive My gospel from Me and pass it on to their fellow human beings. The transmission of My word is of such great importance that I bless everyone who gives himself to it, for otherwise you can rarely experience My love, wisdom and omnipotence, and you must know this in order to desire Me, for the human being only desires what seems valuable to him. And I want to be recognized by you as a supremely perfect being, because only then will you consciously place yourselves at My side and have the desire to unite with Me. But then you will also have made your decision of will for the purpose of which you live on earth as a human being. I did not tell My disciples in vain: “Go and teach all nations ….” Without knowledge of My love people will not find Me, they will only be influenced in their will and thinking by the word which addresses them and stimulates them to live according to this word in order to experience the effect of the word. And as soon as I Myself can speak to people because they open their ears to Me, it is also possible for Me to influence their thoughts and intentions without forcing them. And therefore I bless every serious proclaimer of My gospel, of the message which originated from Me and was brought to people on earth through Jesus Christ and yet has to be brought to them again and again precisely in order to urge their will to make the right decision to turn to Me and to achieve the connection with Me, which is the human being’s first and last aim on earth. And as soon as people listen to My word My strength of love takes hold of them and draws them to Me …. But the word must be able to penetrate the heart, it must not only touch the ear where it can just as easily fade away again …. It must be received by the heart which then feels My address as a ray of love and completely surrenders itself to Me. But then I will have grasped it and will never let it out of My hands again …. Then it has already become Mine through its will, and it will remain Mine for all eternity ….
Amen

Prayer in spirit and in truth ….
B.D. 5674 from May 12th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Your prayers should not be lip prayers, for these do not reach the ear of the heavenly father, Who wants to be called upon in spirit and in truth. You should speak to Him as a child speaks to its father, you should come to Him in complete trust and humility and present your requests to Him, you should converse in the most simple manner, for He only hears what your heart speaks to Him …. For this reason it can never be in His will that you make use of learned formal prayers which are only spoken by your mouth, which have no deep meaning and therefore no value, which take up your time which you can and should use far better. The prayer which is sent up to the heavenly father in spirit and in truth can only consist of a short call, of a heartfelt thought which establishes the child’s connection with the father, for He truly knows about all needs and only wants the child to turn to Him in order to grant him help, in order to be able to fulfil his silent, heartfelt prayer …. Prayer is greatly abused, and that is why it so often remains ineffective. Being allowed to pray to God is a grace which cannot be valued highly enough …. that God gives the human being the opportunity to make contact with Him, that He graciously inclines His ear to His creations which are still far away from Him …. It is a grace that people can already reduce the distance from themselves to God through prayer, because through prayer they express the will to enter into contact with Him …. Yet it is only too understandable that only a prayer in spirit and in truth establishes this connection, that lip prayers have no strength, even if the intellect is also active and thus the content of the prayer is mentally pursued …. which, however, is all too often impossible with formal prayers of a special kind …. But the heart remains uninvolved, because the heart would resist in the realization of the lack of content of such prayers. The heart forms other words, it speaks naturally and unadorned with God, Whom it recognizes as a loving father and Whom it asks for help, if it needs help. Prayers of praise also only consist of a heartfelt and exultant feeling of gratitude which lifts itself up to the heavenly father …. You humans should consider that God is a spirit of utmost perfection, that He can only be worshipped in spirit and that no deception, no appearance can exist before Him, that it would therefore be completely useless to form other words in prayer than the heart feels them. You should indeed pray without ceasing …. but this is the only way to understand these words, that the human being should constantly maintain contact with God, that he should transfer his entire world of thoughts into the spiritual kingdom, that spiritual transformation should be his first concern …. that he should not only turn to God for help in cases of adversity but completely hand himself over to Him and commend himself to His grace …. For only through constant contact with God can the human being mature and finally reach the aim of a union with Him and become blessed ….
Amen

Calling upon the beings of light …. Prior connection with the Father ….
B.D. 5675 from May 13th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Make contact with all the virtuous forces in the spiritual kingdom by appealing for their protection, for their care and help in spiritual as well as in earthly adversity. They are devoted to you in love and always want to help you, yet they are also bound to observe the laws of eternal order so that they may not help you until you call upon them yourselves, because your own will determines the influence of good or evil forces …. Thus you may turn to the spiritual world of light, however, by doing so you must not forget …. Me Myself …. I want to be King in your hearts, it is My will that you establish the connection with Me Myself, that you ask Me Myself to send you My helpers, that I give My blessings, that nothing shall happen without My will. Your connection with Me is the goal of your earthly life and if you exclude Me by exclusively handing yourselves over to the beings of light you will hardly reach your goal, for then you will be missing one thing: childlike trust towards the Father, which will also let you find the direct path to the Father …. I try to gain your love, the love of a child for its Father …. And you lack this love if you don’t call upon Me in every adversity of body and soul, for if you love Me your heart will impel you to Me.
This is why the straight path to Me is also evidence of your love and faith, and all My angels, My messengers of light and helpers, rejoice if you offer Me this love and then they will work on My instructions on your behalf and within you. And if you also mentally entrust yourselves to their care the influx of strength, which then will constantly flow into you, will never be ineffective. You can confidently put your trust in them, yet the connection with Me must always come first, for I want to hear your call before I instruct My forces to provide help for you. They all merely comply with their Lord’s will, which is also their own will, and in order to receive their Lord’s instruction to be helpfully active He also wants to be called upon by those who require help. However, when the love of a child calls for the Father, the Father will mobilise all the forces of heaven in order to give His child what it requires …. For love achieves anything, and I want to receive this love from My child ….
Amen

Working of the light beings …. truth – error ….
B.D. 5676 from May 14th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
You will truly be given a light if you desire it: The mission of the spiritual beings standing in the light is and will always be to look after the children entrusted to them and to guide them into true thinking. And thus everything will be done on the part of this world of light to help chase away darkness, to remedy ignorance, to uncover error and lies so that people’s thoughts will always be guided by truth, because they know that only truth can lead to Me. But there is great darkness on earth …. This also explains the great apostasy from faith, which is often offended by error and turns away from everything, even from the truth …. However, the beings of light have little success with completely faithless people, for they rarely turn their thoughts to the spiritual kingdom and therefore the beings of light cannot intervene with them and thus cannot bring them enlightenment either. But they should nevertheless also arrive at the truth, therefore they must sometimes be led other ways, they must be stimulated to think, and this can only happen again in a completely natural way, that they are drawn into spiritual debates where they themselves are prompted to express a judgement and then the world of light also intervenes. Wonderful results can come about as long as the human being is of good will. Before the end of this earth there is spiritual chaos on earth, error is already so widespread that it is spread as truth, and a bearer of truth rarely has a chance to penetrate and find followers with the light which has Me as its starting point. For error is already too deeply rooted in the human being and does not want to be abandoned either. And thus error and lies can only be recognized by bearers of light, by spirit-awakened people who have been introduced to the pure truth by Me and now also have a clear sense where truth separates from lies. Yet these few no longer penetrate with the truth because there is such spiritual confusion amongst people at the end of this earth that My adversary has an easy time influencing them and therefore uses every opportunity to confuse their thinking even more and to hand them over to error and lies. But then it is quite far from Me to want to win people over through miracles and signs. For these would only be suitable to lead to blind faith, to a compulsive faith which is completely worthless …. People can only redeem themselves through love. Only through love can they attain truth, light, right thinking, because only love awakens the spirit in the human being which then also introduces them to truth. Thus people can only be admonished and stimulated to love, which is also what the influence of the world of light on people is aiming at …. Hence love is first of all what every supernatural phenomenon should point to if it wants to improve people, and then people themselves would gain strength of knowledge and be able to separate error from truth …. Anyone who preaches love is an emissary from Me, and My messengers from the spiritual kingdom who influence people will only ever pursue the one aim of encouraging people to be lovingly active. The darkening of people’s spirit is the result of unkindness; if this is changed into activity of love it will also become bright on earth and in all human hearts, and then the spiritual hardship will truly have decreased, then the beings of light will be able to carry out their ministry, people will be mentally instructed in truth, i.e. they move in right thinking and knowledge, they reject error without hesitation and accept the pure truth wherever it is offered to them, then they themselves will be of enlightened spirit as well as living in love ….
Amen

False Christs and prophets …. Satan's mask ….
B.D. 5677 from May 16th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
You must not get caught in Satan’s nets of lies who wants to win you over for himself by trying to confuse your thoughts, by apparently speaking in My name and yet, being far away from the truth himself, only presenting you falsehood. False Christs and false prophets shall arise …. remember these Words of Mine and don’t believe every spirit who speaks My Word, for even an evil spirit makes use of My Words if thereby he can draw you into this camp …. Many a person will allow himself to become confused in the last days, but only because he is half-hearted himself and fails to take refuge in Me in order to attain the truth. And My adversary knows how best to win people over who are not yet entirely devoted to Me …. He does not shy away from influencing them under the mask of piety; his goal is to distort My image, to alienate people from Me; his goal is to make it more difficult for them to recognise Me, and therefore he uses words which can have various meanings and subsequently interprets them such that they will be misunderstood and lead away from true belief in Me and from love since due to his interpretation I cannot be properly recognised …. Thus My adversary influences weak and not entirely firm people to interpret My Words in this way, thereby apparently speaking in support of Me and yet against Me, because it is not the pure truth which he is spreading. The sincere will to work for Me and My kingdom will eliminate this danger; but how many have not yet attained a living faith and profound love for Me and their neighbours themselves as to be enlightened by My spirit. And they likewise have reached a point in life when My Word shall be proclaimed, hence they make an intellectual effort to give people the interpretation, intellect, however, is subject to the adversary’s influence who wants to confuse the latter in order to work against Me.
And again I emphasize the fact that only the human being’s will to hear truth or to pass it on is decisive as to whether he will receive truth or pass it on. The human being first has to be imbued by the desire for the pure truth, then he can be certain that truth will be imparted to him, that he will truthfully understand and interpret My Word. My adversary is eagerly working at undermining the truth, and he will be successful where the will for truth is not strong enough so that I Myself, as the Provider of truth, can safeguard it, because the human being’s will alone determines the spiritual knowledge he receives. Therefore, don’t let yourselves be deceived by pious words which My adversary can also use where he finds the right ground for it. For not the Word itself is Mine but the spirit I placed into My Words …. The Word itself, without My spirit, can certainly be changed, and therefore it can also be used by My adversary in order to achieve his goal of separating you from Me and the truth …. The spirit, however, is My share, and if you therefore search for the spirit within the Word My spirit will enlighten you, but differently than the interpretation of the one who avails himself of My Word without being imbued by My spirit. These are the last days, when My adversary causes much confusion among people …. Therefore beware and test all things, and if you do so with an appeal for My support, you will know and only ever keep what is good ….
Amen

Fulfilment of predictions …. Preceding disaster ….
B.D. 5678a from May 18th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
The time is fulfilled, everything points to the end …. yet only the people who strive towards Me can see the signs, for their eyes are turned heavenwards, and thus they also receive enlightenment from above and don’t doubt that now will come to pass what seers and prophets have foretold on My instructions. What seems self-evident to them is completely implausible to the worldly person, they look at things with different eyes than those who only see the world and therefore also only live for the world and its pleasures, and whose spirit will grow progressively darker the closer it gets to the end. And for all these people an event will still happen before the end which certainly could change their thoughts, which could make them stop and think, if only they had a little good will! I still want to reveal Myself in advance, although even then they still won’t have to recognise Me …. Once again they shall lose that which they greedily aspire to, their earthly possessions shall be destroyed and taken away from them again, yet by a power which they cannot hold accountable for it …. I want to manifest Myself through the elements of nature in order to save them …. Where there is still a spark of faith in a person there is also an opportunity for salvation, for he can still turn his thoughts to Me in the last hour and call upon Me for help …. and even if he loses his mortal life …. this call will be heard and his faith will be rewarded to him in the kingdom of the beyond, where he will find help …. I only want to see an acknowledging thought and My hand will extend itself to everyone, in order to demonstrate Myself to him at last. I truly make it easy for you to believe in Me if only you would put it to the test by calling upon Me in spirit and in truth. And therefore I will make a final attempt to save them, to save those who have not yet entirely fallen prey to My adversary.
I will let the earth tremble and every hope of earthly rescue vanish …. And where no help is possible anymore I alone can still provide rescue, for nothing is impossible for Me …. And anyone who, in utmost crisis, remembers his childlike faith, who makes this final attempt to call upon Me, will truly not regret it …. He will be saved for time and eternity, since losing his earthly life will then only be a blessing if the soul still ascends in the spiritual kingdom. Although the forces of nature are not always regarded as an expression of My power and strength, yet mortal fear occasionally gives rise to different thoughts than the human being would otherwise have, he can recognise Me in an instant and therefore also call upon Me for help. Yet this never applies to the word which is merely voiced by the mouth, if the heart is not involved …. The time is fulfilled, but prior to this will come to pass what I proclaimed to you and repeatedly proclaim again …. an unusual natural event, which is intended to remind you of the end that will follow soon afterwards. I constantly admonish and caution you to take notice of My Words, and I draw your attention to the signs of the time, yet I cannot force you to accept My Words as truth …. however, commit them to your memory, so that they will remind you of the One Who speaks to you and Who truly only wants what is best for you, Who wants to rescue you from the abyss towards which those of you, who are completely devoid of faith, are heading ….
Amen

Fulfilment of predictions …. Preceding disaster ….
B.D. 5678b from May 18th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
Hence the last Judgment is preceded by a serious admonition, an indication of the near end and at the same time the evidence of it, because My proclamation fulfils itself and thus you human can equally assuredly expect the end, which not long afterwards is intended to come upon this earth and its inhabitants. Humanity’s fate is an irrevocably deep abyss, regardless of whether they stay alive for just a short or a very long time, for they are in a completely dark spiritual state and do nothing of their own accord in order to remedy it. This is why I will have to disturb their tranquillity …. Something has to happen which is so inconceivable to them, which horrifies them and makes their bodily death clear to them …. Only death scares unbelieving people and thus I will bring death home to them, yet only with the intention of motivating them into calling upon Me in greatest fear, Who alone can keep them alive when earthly rescue no longer seems possible. Such a call can still result in the person’s salvation …. such a call can bring him closer to Me again if it arises from the heart and then surely will also be granted by Me. People have no idea of the event with which I want to remind them of My existence again ….
All elements will rage against each other, it will be as if all hell was let loose against people, and there will be no escape for them …. until I Myself command the elements and end the hour of dread and terror …. Nothing is impossible for Me, and this belief in My omnipotence, love and wisdom will truly have a miraculous effect in these fearful hours. For My Own will emerge unharmed from this experience, openly praising My grace and strength and My love …. And those who found Me in their adversity will join them in their praises, they will support their fellow human beings by helping and comforting them in realisation of the strength of faith, which they want to pass on to them as well. I have announced this event in advance and time and again will refer you humans to it …. Learn to believe and call upon Me if you thus recognise Me, and then also believe that My last proclamation will fulfil itself, that the end will come and with it the last Judgment …. And make use of this last time of grace, catch up on what you have neglected, don’t let the last day arrive and find yourselves unprepared, for then there will be no more salvation for those who have as yet not found Me …. then people will remain in sin and be destroyed because they ignored My admonitions and warnings and thus will be unable to find mercy once the end has come ….
Amen

Using life force to love …. love power ….
B.D. 5679 from May 19th 1953, taken from Book No. 62
You humans are not aware of the strength that is within you, which would allow you to accomplish incredible things if only you wanted to develop it within yourselves …. You are weak and powerless creatures on earth as long as you do not use this strength. But you can only develop it through love, and therefore you are weak and powerless because love has grown cold, because you are no longer able to feel warm emotion in your heart. But the more you use the vitality which every human being has at his disposal as long as he lives on earth but which he should use in order to strengthen the inner strength of love. Instead, however, he only uses the vitality for earthly purposes in order to gain earthly goods, in order to create comforts for his body, in order to assert himself in earthly life. But he does not think about the fact that life will come to an end and that it can already be over the next day, that then all vitality is taken away from them, which he could use in the most extensive way in order to create spiritual goods for himself …. But the strength which is inherent in you can also be used to remedy earthly adversity, yet it is a different process, it is, as it were, a transformation of the human being’s nature which then excludes all earthly adversity. The human being is above all things which burden him on earth because the strength he has awakened in himself is of divine origin and consequently he has divine support as soon as he uses this strength. Hence he must use the strength he is entitled to in order to develop the strength of love …. he has to carry out works of love which will increasingly strengthen the smouldering strength of love within him and enable the human being to accomplish things which are far beyond his natural ability and yet are natural …. A person who thus unites himself with God through works of love such that strength of love constantly flows to him from God will also master earthly life, he will banish all earthly adversity, for it is no longer necessary for him since the transformation of his nature has already taken place and he now feels divine strength within himself which he now also uses in God’s will.
All of you could make use of this strength, all of you would no longer be affected by the heaviness of earthly life if only you would make the strength from God your own, which flows inexorably towards you if you work with love. There need no longer be any hardship on earth, for the strength of life was given to you for this purpose, that you use it to work in love …. Love alone sets you free from all suffering, love alone makes you strong, for love is divine, and where God is there is no adversity, no weakness and no suffering either ….
Amen
