Whoever calls to Me, I hear him. My ear listens to every sound, to every breath of My children, and I incline towards them even before they have spoken the word, because I love My children. My love bridges every distance and there is no separation between a heartfelt child and Me, for its call reaches Me and fetches Me to it, because I am always ready to help and because I bless every connection the earthly child establishes with its father of eternity. I respect every call which rises up to Me from the heart, but I do not respect the words which are only spoken by the mouth …. But how many prayers are spoken which cannot reach My ear because they are only lip prayers. Only one thought can and will achieve more with Me than long prayers which lack intimacy because the child does not speak to the father but the human being only thinks of a God who is distant from him and tries to persuade Him to accept empty words and fulfil demands because the human being himself does not feel powerful enough to cope with life on his own and needs help. But he does not take the right path, he demands where he should ask. A request, however, requires a child’s faithful trust in the father, the human being must feel himself to be a child of the one Who created him and therefore also entrust himself humbly and faithfully to the father …. And this requires heartfelt words to the father which need not be spoken but which should fill the child’s thoughts. Mostly, however, the prayers have become a form, the mouth utters them while the thoughts dwell elsewhere, and as they are also with the words themselves, they lack the impulse of the heart that pushes towards the father …. They lack the heartfelt devotion to Me which calls Me, indeed compels Me, to incline towards My child and listen to its request. A heartfelt prayer pleases Me, for then I will have already won the person for Myself, because his will is meant for Me, because he acknowledges Me as his father from eternity and because he makes use of My grace and strength which help him to ascend, to attain perfection. Heartfelt prayer bridges every gulf; a person who prays correctly consciously strives towards Me and will also surely reach his aim …. I am present to him and he will feel My presence and never again go through earthly life alone ….

Amen

You should not resist the spirit if it wants to express itself …. and it wants to speak if you are inwardly urged to entertain spiritual thoughts, if your thoughts keep occupying themselves with that which does not concern your body but the soul …. if you have to think of death, of a continuation of life after death, of God, of your responsibility towards Him, of your own shortcomings, of mistakes and weaknesses, which you yourselves experience as such and which cause you to feel inwardly dissatisfied and anxious. All these are expressions of the spirit in you which would like its voice to be heard, which demands your attention regarding all these things, as they alone are of importance for eternity …. All these thoughts don’t deal with the earthly world but point to the spiritual kingdom, and these thoughts ought to be heeded, for they don’t arise in the human being for no reason. They are gentle admonitions and warnings, it is the inner voice which is just not recognised by a person as a voice and which tells him the same, that the person should take stock of himself and not live indifferently, that he should not merely live an earthly life because he thereby causes indescribable damage to his soul. The admonisher within the person will not keep silent but very often will be ignored, for the voice from outside is louder and drowns out the inner voice if a person is too worldly minded. Then he will become insensitive to the subtle voice which sounds in him, he will only have eyes and ears for the world and be in great danger of entirely losing the ability to hear this voice …. thereby losing all faith and no longer being capable of contemplating spiritual thoughts.

Every person, even a worldly person in the midst of life, has moments of calm when he can take stock of himself if he wants …. Every person will occasionally be drawn into conversations pertaining to spiritual problems; in every person the spirit, which is part of God, tries to express itself …. For God touches all people, and He does so time and time again, because He wants to divert them from purely earthly matters towards spiritual ones. Yet anyone who resists the spirit, who pushes all thoughts away, who remains unreceptive to all inward instructions, prevents the working of the inner spirit at his own peril. For he loses all contact with the Divine, he himself destroys the bridge …. he remains on earth and will never be able to enter spiritual spheres even when his earthly life has ended …. For his soul is so materialistically inclined that it will be unable to leave the earthly sphere …. it is hardened just like matter, which occupied its sole thoughts and intentions in earthly life …. And for this soul the path will be an infinitely long one before it reaches the sphere of the spirit …. for it is considerably more arduous to travel than on earth ….

Amen

From Me is all life, from Me flows the light which is necessary for life …. from Me is truth, for life, light and truth are I Myself, and no being can live in light and truth unless it had them from Me, because there is no life apart from Me. True life, however, does not mean existence per se, for it can also be a being which lacks life because it does not accept My strength of love from Me, because it rejects this strength of love and therefore dwells in darkness, in ignorance and complete powerlessness …. in a state of death …. Then the being is outside of Me, it flees the positively active strength, it flees the light, it is without love and without life. And it first has to return to Me again if it truly wants to live …. But life proves itself through incessant activity …. through the constant emergence of new life, through an increase of strength …. Life is a constant exchange of strength, life is strength which always remains in motion, which holds everything together, which constantly builds up, which therefore has a positive effect. And that is why life emanating from Me, strength flowing from Me can never result in negative success …. But where this is recognizable there cannot be My life-giving strength …. Where light, truth, life from Me is, My strength must inevitably be recognized, for where My strength is not, darkness of spirit, error and a state of powerlessness, of death, is evident. Hence there is no longer a connection with Me through which I could send life-awakening strength to the beings, and thus these beings stand outside of Me ….

Humanity is in this state, which cannot be called ‘life’, and it will remain in this state until the end ….

(5. 9.1953) because the connection with Me, the source of strength, can only be established through love and because people lack love. A loving heart opens itself to My strength, but an unloving, cold heart is hardened and closes itself against every illumination which My grace and mercy repeatedly bestows upon it in order to awaken it from death to life. And thus a right life can only be recognized in a person who lives in love, and this life is expressed in spiritual abilities. My strength, My spirit, can now work in the human being; thus he will be able to achieve unusual things, possess abilities which are not naturally present in the human being but which are awakened by My strength and thus come to light. In a time of people’s complete lack of faith and love such spiritual abilities are particularly obvious, whereas they are actually part of the human being’s destiny and should be a general phenomenon, for the human being shall make use of My strength, My working of the spirit during his earthly lifetime, and he can do so as soon as he complies with the commandments of love …. But what is the situation like amongst humanity? No-one has any understanding for extraordinary activity, for spiritual abilities, on the contrary, those who truly live among the multitude of the dead on earth are attacked …. They only live because they love, because I Myself am where love is, and because where I am there can only be life. But where I am there is also truth and light …. Where you humans can visibly see My working, where gifts of the spirit can be recognized which it is written that you should strive for, there alone is also truth represented, there I Myself work through My spirit ….

But where is the working of the spirit still evident today? Where do unusual abilities appear, where are unusual processes recognizable which you cannot call miracles of false prophets because they are connected with the proclamation of My word …. the proclamation of Jesus Christ and His act of salvation …. And where are these visible signs of divine spiritual activity missing everywhere? Think about it and seriously ask yourselves where there is life and where there is no sign of death …. And seriously strive to awaken to life, to let My strength flow into you and to make this possible by living a life of love, by fulfilling the commandments of love for God and your neighbour …. by connecting with Me and receiving My strength …. For only he who abides in love abides in Me and I in him …. and him alone can I fill with My strength ….

Amen

You receive light and strength and grace if only you desire it. And you will truly have no shortage if I assure you everything you need in order to be able to fulfil your task of earthly life. As soon as you place yourselves on My side, as soon as you consciously make contact with Me through heartfelt prayer, through confidential dialogue, thereby demonstrating your faith in Me, you will belong to My own, whom I will take care of, whom I will guide, whom I will look after and whom I will always help to ascend. But My own are never abandoned …. Of My own I now choose those who voluntarily offer their services to Me because I need people who work on My behalf for Me and My kingdom. And these are now active as My servants in My house from now on …. Thus they will be fully provided for by Me, because a good householder will not let those who work for Him suffer any lack. Thus none of My servants need worry about earthly things because I take over all these worries; and spiritual goods are also given to them because they use them for work in My vineyard …. Light, strength and grace …. What else do you need if I give you these goods in abundance? Then you will always be able to hold your ground as long as you live on earth, for then you will know everything. You are not powerless and receive more than you deserve, you will be provided for by Me even though your spiritual state is still deficient …. for My love overlooks your shortcomings and gives you unmeasured blessings which you can then use and which are always successful for your soul. As soon as you request light, strength and grace from Me you prove that you want to strive spiritually …. that you are serious about your perfection, that you appeal to Me and humbly turn to Me in your recognized weakness to receive what you lack. And I will always grant spiritual requests and give to you abundantly. For I know that you will now utilize what you have received for Me and My kingdom again, that you will secure strength from Me in order to be able to serve Me …. And I bless your will …. Whatever you do for Me and My kingdom I will reward you abundantly, for it is a labour of love for the souls of your fellow human beings who are in need. It is a merciful help for the souls in the beyond who need you to escape their adversity. And you serve Me when you serve these souls …. Give to them and you will receive from Me, you will have no lack as soon as you only hand out to the poor and needy yourselves, for then you will be active in My stead, Who always and constantly wants to give but needs you as mediators as long as they don’t establish the connection with Me themselves …. For I can only give where My gift is requested or, if it is offered, is gratefully received and used. To you, as mediators and My servants on earth, I distribute unmeasured what you desire, spiritually and earthly you will receive as I have promised you ….

Amen

You should stand up for the truth, for you are able to do so because you receive the truth from Me Myself and are therefore entitled to consider yourselves taught by Me and therefore also able to represent it to your fellow human beings. You will still often be attacked by those who call themselves knowledgeable and yet do not know the truth, you will see yourselves prompted to refute their objections, yet they will only ever be human opinions which can never be proven to be free of error. Yet truth is given to you and therefore you recognize every error and should fight it. It is not a matter of you being right, that they are merely matters of dispute whose correction is unimportant …. It is about the fact that man is led into confused thinking through error, that his spirit darkens and that he goes wrong ways in darkness …. and then can never reach the aim. Truth alone is the light which allows the human being to find the right path and in the light of which he will safely reach the aim. This is why I instruct you, My disciples of the last days, in the truth, so that you shall lead your fellow human beings with your light in order to guide them. What I require of you, who want to be true disciples of Me, is that you pass on what I give to you …. Thus, if I impart the truth to you because I know the importance of truthful spiritual knowledge, then it is also My will that you convey this truth to your fellow human beings with the indication that you have received it from Me Myself. Due to My adversary’s influence people no longer have a proper appreciation of true spiritual knowledge. They like to compromise, they don’t want to give away what they own although it is completely worthless, and therefore they belittle what alone is of value to them. But I cannot tolerate what does not correspond to the truth …. I don’t force people to accept the truth but I don’t approve of them persisting with what a knowledgeable person reproaches them with as error. To possess the pure truth, to receive it from Me Myself, obliges you to pass it on, otherwise it will not be recognized as a precious gift, as a safe means to reach the aim on earth. What I give you is only intended for the salvation of your soul, for your recovery, and therefore must not be disregarded. But it means disregard if the imparted spiritual knowledge is not used …. if the bearer of truth silently ignores it when misguided teachings are presented to his ears …. He has been gifted by Me with a light which he should now also use to shine into the darkness so that it will fulfil its purpose. Error and lies, wrong teachings and opinions have been brought into the world by My adversary who fights against the truth, by the prince of darkness who wants to extinguish all light …. People who do not think for themselves are his victims, they enter his nets all too willingly, they allow themselves to be led and are led into darkness and blindly follow him. For the sake of these victims I place light bearers by the way to lead them away from the dark path …. The light of truth shall shine for them, in the glow of which they will truly walk better, for it becomes ever brighter the closer they come to the aim …. whereas they can walk for an infinitely long time until they finally depart from error and accept the truth …. Only then will they find Me, Who am the eternal truth Itself …. and only then will they be blessed ….

Amen

It is difficult to enlighten people as long as they are convinced that they know the truth. A completely uninformed person will gladly accept knowledge offered to him, and if it appears to enlighten him it will make him happy. It is difficult to convince someone that he is thinking incorrectly if he believes himself already to know the truth, and it is even more difficult to convey different spiritual information to him, because he holds on to the former and is only receptive for other knowledge when he begins to doubt. And thus, you can always identify amongst you fellow human beings those who are completely without faith and live a purely earthly life, and those who deem themselves religious, who even eagerly support their faith and yet are defending something that is far from the truth.

The former are in the majority and, due to their total unbelief, in dire straights because they don’t look for contact with the world which is their home as well as their goal, whereas the believers still occupy themselves with spiritual issues despite wrong teachings and misguided views which only need to be rectified, and they will often be offered the opportunity for this on earth as well as in the beyond, yet the direction of their thoughts is always determined by their free will. But complete unbelievers should be offered spiritual information, they should be motivated to reflect on it, the reality of the spiritual world should first be made plausible to them, and they can also be won over if the spiritual knowledge is presented to them intelligently.

The more a person has distanced himself from ecclesiastical belief, the more difficult it is to introduce him to church doctrines, even if they correspond to the truth …. Yet somehow every person can be approached, it just requires extensive knowledge to win such people, which in the end nevertheless leads to where God can be found …. These people must learn to believe by way of deliberation, and then they will attain a profound, living faith if they seriously want the truth. For their unbelief need not always demonstrate their complete remoteness from God …. They might have been pushed into unbelief on account of misguided teachings which their intellect refused to accept and which resulted in their rejection of everything …. And these people must be helped again by their intellect to recognise the truth, then they will become convinced supporters of the truth themselves and remain firm in their conviction ….

Heart and intellect must be able to accept spiritual concepts, for the truth, which originates from God, can also stand up to all intellectual scrutiny and does not just demand blind faith …. whereas misguided spiritual concepts, misguided religious doctrines, will not withstand a serious examination by the intellect and therefore blind faith is demanded for these teachings, which is never God’s will …. It is much easier for the sceptic to arrive at the truth than for those people who don’t want the truth because they believe they already possess it …. who do not use their intellect but accept everything without investigating its origin ….

Amen

In the spiritual world a busy activity is dedicated to the inhabitants of earth, for the beings of light recognize people’s state of distress in the last days before the end, and they intervene to help where only their help is possible through the human being’s will. During this time many beings of light also descended to earth in order to be able to carry out their work of help in a fleshly shell …. but also countless beings of light are constantly in contact with earth and its inhabitants and thus work together on the redemption of the erring souls before the end. However, the influence of all beings of light, whether spiritually or embodied as a human being, will only ever affect people’s spiritual life, their spiritual development, thus a being of light can only be active in a spiritual mission on earth, for it took on this task with full will when it declared itself willing to be conceived on this earth, and since the human being now lacks recollection it is always and constantly guided by the beings of the spiritual kingdom and the human being in it is prepared for this task, for it offers no resistance to the spiritual influence, it willingly allows itself to be guided and now also fulfils its mission which it has accepted …. Such a person is therefore in a certain respect capable of doing this …. he has qualities and gifts which make him suitable for this task, his soul has a spiritual maturity and also the talent to recognize and grasp everything more easily …. It therefore has talents …. and consequently also a great responsibility to make proper use of these talents …. And it task consists precisely in awakening its own talents in its fellow human beings …. But what a person cannot show by himself, he can acquire if he receives the right guidance …. Every person is able to request the spirit from God if he is made aware of the fact that God gives him His spirit …. Every person can request enlightenment through the spirit if God is presented to him from a called side such that he recognizes Him as a God of love Who always fulfils such a request. What a person does not do by himself because he does not know it, he can do if he is properly instructed about it …. So he can also increase his few talents if he wants to …. But this will is free …. He can leave his talents undeveloped, he cannot use them at all, and he can train them indefinitely …. if only he sticks to what he is advised by those who have experience in this …. These, however, do not demand anything impossible, for they first indicate the certain-effective means …. to practice love, because then the human being will inevitably come into possession of strength and …. because this strength is from God …. it must have a constructive effect …. Every person can practice love, consequently also develop his talents, and whether he does so and to what extent, God will judge him according to his talents …. according to the pound he was given, so that he may increase it, which is possible for every person if he does not close his mind to the suggestions and instructions of those who received the ministry from above …. who voluntarily accepted it in the knowledge of the spiritual darkness on earth, which constantly increases the closer it gets to the end ….

Amen

You are certainly urged by My spirit to comply with My will, yet you are not being forced into doing so because compulsion would damage your soul. If, however, you completely and utterly sacrifice your will to Me, if you consciously surrender your opposition to Me by only wanting to do My will, then you will be unable to do anything else but to live according to the order which is My fundamental principle of eternity …. Then you will no longer consciously infringe against this order, you will always conduct yourselves as I ask of you, you will no longer sin consciously. In that case you willingly comply with the urging of the spirit, you allow yourselves to be guided by it and thus you will be guided by Me, and that truly righteously. Yet you should and indeed can do more than just avoid sin and abhor injustice; you will also be induced by My spirit accordingly, but if you don’t give in to its urging then you will not be content with yourselves even if you have not sinned, for although you don’t infringe against the commandments of love for God and your neighbour …. you nevertheless don’t eagerly comply with them and your soul will feel neglected and depressed, for it senses that it is not making any progress in its development ….

Every discontentment with oneself is an expression of a depressed soul. You humans should not always remain on the same level, you should make an effort, you should do whatever it takes to advance your higher development, and you should continually work at improving yourselves, and this is what the spirit constantly stimulates you to do …. If you follow its encouragement you will also sense an inner calm, for then you will have fulfilled My will and this feeling makes you happy. I certainly take notice of your will to accept My will and assess it correctly, yet you should also try to put into practise what you promise Me …. Seek to give ever more love, to perform selfless works of love, try to base your whole life on love, then you will live in harmony with My spirit within you, and then you will only listen to My spirit and ignore whatever the other side says to you. Let the spirit in you rule supreme, completely submit yourselves to My will and always strive for perfection …. And your heart will be so filled by peace that it will reveal Me and My presence in you , for then you will be aware of My presence and can only live in absolute harmony with Me and My spirit ….

Amen

Souls which lack light suffer incredibly great hardship in the beyond. To describe this condition to you humans on earth would be truly sufficient to drive you to live your own life differently, but that would be the end of your freedom of will; driven by fear of the same destiny you would inevitably make an effort to behave differently, thus indeed comply with what is expected of you but not of your own accord, motivated by free will. Yet you shall know about the soul’s fate, it shall be imparted to you, and then it is still up to you to believe it and to draw your own conclusions from it ….

On entering the kingdom of the beyond these souls have lost everything they loved on earth, they own nothing, for they can only take across what they had spiritually acquired, and this is what they are mainly lacking. Since they lived a godless way of life they are engulfed by utter darkness and are totally powerless, yet they are not insensitive, for their environment causes them torment and terror, and these torments and terrors will also be experienced by a soul which had fearlessly and powerfully implemented on earth what had subsequently plunged it into darkness …. These indescribable sufferings will then either awaken the soul’s desire to escape this condition or increase its evil instincts so that it will also look for satisfaction in this realm, which means that it will completely submit itself to the forces of darkness. Yet even the souls which had not left their earthly life in such sinfulness, but whose life had been devoid of love and indifferent towards all spiritual notions, are in a very difficult situation, for they, too, are extremely tormented by darkness, although this will, from time to time, give way to twilight if the soul is not yet entirely hardened, so that it will ask for light, for only the desire will enable the soul to attain the light.

But all souls are lacking the strength to want what is right …. and according to the law of eternity they cannot be given help if they don’t desire it themselves. God’s act of compassion is certainly not over once the soul has left the earthly body, but what it failed to use on earth even though it had owned it in abundance, it first has to acquire in the beyond, and it is too weak to do so …. Just always imagine them as extremely weakened, helpless beings which suffer indescribably and depend on help in order to be released from their suffering …. you would be overcome by pity for these beings if you were able to see their hardship. And you all know souls in the beyond of whom you don’t know in what state they entered the spiritual kingdom …. you all have lost people through death who had been close to you …. At least remember the souls who had been dear to you and help them, for even the smallest work of redemption on these souls will result in further redemptions, and you will have contributed much towards it.

You can only help them through loving thoughts and prayers, through intercession on behalf of these souls which, admittedly, will not release them from their torment but it will give them strength on account of which the soul will be able to change its will and strive towards the light. It cannot be released from its painful situation against its will, but in order to want what is right it needs your intercession, a prayer given with love, as soon as it enters your thoughts. For you should know that the soul is asking for your help as soon as it enters your thoughts, that you are constantly surrounded by souls hoping for your help, and that you should not resentfully suppress thoughts of the deceased if you don’t want to add to their agony …. The fate of these souls remains hidden from you so as not to impair your free will; you and the deceased souls occupy two worlds which are separated by a dividing line; you cannot look into their world and yet it exists and you are able to send much love from your world into theirs, the effect of which expresses itself in a way and to an extent that countless souls will be able to escape their situation. Often remember these poor souls and don’t ignore them in their adversity, for you will be richly rewarded for what you do for them out of merciful love, in as much as that you will receive spiritual help on earth from all souls which have come out of darkness into the light ….

Amen

You should recognize Jesus Christ as the son of God and redeemer of the world and then you will also confess Him before the world. But in order to be able to recognize Him you first have to know about your great guilt from which Jesus Christ redeemed you, otherwise His suffering and death on the cross is incomprehensible to you and Jesus is nothing more to you than a human being who lived a good and sinless life on earth and had to give his life for his ideas …. Only rarely does a human being seriously think about the meaning and purpose of his earthly existence, and he has no knowledge of the fact that his existence as a human being is the consequence of the great sin of the rebellion of originally created spirits against God, which once separated themselves from Him in arrogance and lust for power. It was an immense guilt that the spirits had burdened themselves with …. a debt that could not be repaid eternally if the individual were to pay it off, as God’s justice requires. Throughout unthinkable times the being indeed atoned for part of its guilt in a bound state, yet God’s mercy and love gives it the freedom again to give it the opportunity once more to confess Him, so that it can fulfil its original purpose again. Yet this removal of guilt is never enough, for its magnitude is immeasurable, and a being burdened by guilt would never be able to freely ascend to God, the guilt would always stand between God and the being, thus the aim God once set for His created being could never be reached. This original guilt was therefore a shackle for the being which it could never have loosened itself …. Consequently, it either had to be redeemed with God’s help or remain eternally banished from the face of God, it would never be able to find the union with God which signifies beatitude for the being …. This hopeless state of the fallen spiritual being was also seen by the luminous spiritual world, and the love of all beings remaining with God followed the fallen brothers into the abyss. But a being from the kingdom of light offered itself to God for a mission to save the beings in the abyss …. It wanted to descend to them and make atonement for the sinfulness of the unhappy creatures in their place …. It wanted to sacrifice Itself, It wanted to pay with Its life what the beings owed to God …. This being of light offered Itself to God as a sacrifice and descended to earth in order to take on a human form and in this form to walk a sacrificial path as only love could walk …. And the man Jesus took the burden of sin of all humanity upon His shoulders and thus walked the path to the cross …. And God accepted the sacrifice because love brought it …. (9/13/1953) He allowed a human being to endure the greatest torments, that He suffered the death of a criminal on the cross and that His soul struggled with all the powers of darkness …. For He saw the love of this person Jesus or also …. He as the eternal love Himself was in the man Jesus, and this love wanted to take away humanity’s guilt of sin. For through the love which the man Jesus brought to development in Himself He knew about the appalling fate of all people, and thus the man Jesus offered the sacrifice to God which caused the knowing soul of light to descend to earth …. The human being had gained the same knowledge on earth through love, and only His free will was decisive …. A human being sacrificed himself for his fellow human beings …. And the love dwelling in Him …. God Himself …. did not resist Him but was satisfied with this sacrifice of atonement and absolved the whole of humanity from the guilt of sin for the sake of this man Jesus ….

The fact that you humans live on earth is a consequence of your past sin of rebellion against God. However, your existence as a human being is a temporary state which should also be recognizable to you as a defective state, for you are weak creatures subject to natural law which certainly want to act freely but cannot do so without restrictions. You are therefore, as it were, bound, and this powerless, unfree state does not end with your physical death if you are not redeemed …. And Jesus Christ accomplished this act of salvation for you, yet it is always up to you whether you want to accept His act of mercy and grace …. And therefore it is up to every person’s own will whether he will leave this earth redeemed in order to live a truly free life in strength and light, or whether he will take the shackle with him into the spiritual kingdom in order to spend eternities in wretchedness if he does not then make use of the help of the divine redeemer Jesus Christ. You humans cannot and should not pass Jesus Christ by, and therefore the reason for and the significance of the act of salvation should also be made understandable to you, so that you will not be and remain ignorant, so that you can freely decide before it is too late ….

Amen

The power of evil will be broken for a long time, Satan will be put into chains …. a period of peace will replace the time of battle in the universe, no being of darkness will be able to oppress the people on earth; Satan himself and his followers will be bound for a long time, and people on the new earth will not loosen his restraints because they will be closely united with God and will no longer strive for anything else but Him, Who will then take loving care of them, both spiritually and physically. This period of peace on earth will make up for the time of indescribable adversity during the last days on this earth, which is granted to those people who are and want to remain faithful to God. It will truly be a time of battle for them since they will be spiritually and physically persecuted and barely able to defend themselves against their pursuers, who will even threaten their lives if they refuse to submit to them. But time and again these people have been promised through seers and prophets a time of peace, a time when no one will be in danger anymore from any side, when body and soul may enjoy the wonderful works of divine love, when a blissful peace will fill their hearts through the presence of the One Whom they love and for Whom they have suffered.

Everything will be peaceful, creations and living beings alike will live in perfect harmony, and even the bound spiritual substance will progress and quickly surrender its resistance because it will sense the nearness of the One to Whom it shall surrender again, and because people’s spiritual emanations will soothingly affect the bound spirits within the creations. People will have already passed their test of will, therefore a decision will no longer be necessary on the new earth, since people will belong to God with body and soul and cannot be separated from Him anymore. But everything pertaining to Satan will languish in darkness; it will be banished again into hardest matter and unable to influence the souls striving towards the light, it has to submit to God’s will and will be deprived of its power for an infinitely long time. Satan himself will be weak since everything which had supported him and his power will be bound and thus withdrawn from his influence.

In the midst of his world he will be without strength, until people’s wrong will once again provides him with power, but this will only happen after a long period of time, after the first generations of earth, the inhabitant of paradise, their children and children’s children, have long since entered the spiritual kingdom …. when a rift occurs again in the direction of the emerging generations’ will …. Then people will once again let themselves become captivated by material things and through their desire will then also loosen the chains of the one who is lord of this unredeemed world. Then the state of paradise will also come to an end, the time of peace will once again be superseded by a time of battle between light and darkness, for then the struggle for people’s souls will start again until another developmental period expires, yet with the result that innumerable beings will have achieved their spiritualisation and Satan’s power will lessen increasingly until he, too, will have to surrender one day which, however, will still take an inconceivably long time and countless periods of Salvation ….

Amen

You should not carelessly reject words which come to you from above, and if you don’t recognize the outcome of these words, if you don’t believe that they come from above, you should nevertheless check their value before you reject them. For your remorse will be great one day when you realize what you have let pass you by, what treasure you could have gained and what bliss you could have acquired …. This applies above all to those who unhesitatingly accept other spiritual knowledge when it is offered to them from a studied side, and who also make much spiritual knowledge their own by reading and listening to lectures, who therefore would like to be knowledgeable and thus could also carry out an examination if they were serious about it. To be able to make the right judgement intellectually alone must be denied to the examinees, for this requires the support of the divine spirit, which every human being can request. Nevertheless, the word offered from above is also stimulating enough for an intellectual person to think about, and it also stands up to intellectual scrutiny. Only then the seeker would have one more direction of thought to present himself with which he can mentally deal; yet the conviction of its sole truth is only gained through God’s call for His support, for the enlightenment of his thinking, for the supply of pure truth. And this call only comes from a person’s heart when he acknowledges God as the sole truth and the source of all knowledge. People who have no desire whatsoever to be instructed in truth will always reject everything, and one day they will also hardly come to realization, yet there are more thinking people on earth than those who are indifferent to everything, and these thinkers should not put the results of intellect before the results of spiritual activity, for it is precisely they who can judge whether and to what extent wisdom shines forth from those words which are represented as received from above. And therefore they will not be able to excuse themselves one day, for only their will is necessary in order to take a stand on this word and then also to recognize it for what it is …. as God’s word Who wants to help people attain truth and right thinking and Who therefore takes care of people because they are darkened in spirit and lack all knowledge …. And every person can attain the truth who earnestly desires it from God ….

Amen

Come to My table and you will receive food and drink as nourishment for your soul …. What more do you need than what serves to strengthen your soul? What can you be lacking when your soul is provided for …. when you first strive to benefit your soul …. Then you completely fulfil your purpose of earthly life and the body will also have what it needs as long as it is inhabited by the soul. And I surely know how long your soul needs its cover, how long you have to live on earth as a human being to achieve the necessary maturity for your soul. And for that time the body will be sustained too. Therefore, if you desire something from Me then only for your soul and you will receive plenty, your soul need not starve and the body will have in abundance too because you first make the effort to carry out My will, to receive My Word, to listen to Me, and therefore you are guests at the table of the Lord who are ready to receive. I forever want to give you food for your soul, I want you to feed yourselves with the bread of heaven, to accept My Word which provides strength for your soul to ascend.

And I want you to ask Me often for this, I want that you are always willing to listen to Me when I talk to you …. I constantly invite you to be My guests whom I want to refresh with bread and wine, with My flesh and My blood …. with everything that the soul needs to increase in light and strength …. And that is why I always send forth My servants to call people from the street into My welcoming house …. All are called to come to Me and be My guests if they want.

But My house is away from the broad road and thus they have to leave it if they want to find Me but they will never regret it because on the broad road they will never find the delicious refreshment they are offered at My table. And they always long for more, the more often they have been My guest. Yet they have to come to Me voluntarily because, although I send them messengers, I will not force anyone to come to My feast; however, those who refuse to follow My call will remain empty-handed since the world cannot offer what My love wants to give to them …. My Word, which is strength and light and life and guides them into blissfulness ….

Amen

Anyone who professes to belong to the church of Christ shall also live like a Christian, otherwise he is no credit to it. When, in time, belief in Jesus Christ is professed then the true followers of His church will become obvious, for the strength of faith, which is necessary for the avowal of His name, can only be gained through living a way of life by His example, a life of discipleship to Jesus, and he, therefore, is a member of the church founded by Jesus Christ. However, many people will pay lip service, they, too, will belong to churches which claim to have been founded by Jesus …. If they live according to divine will by fulfilling His divine commandments of love then their strength of faith will be strong as well and they will stand firm during the final battle of faith and profess His name before the world …. . But there will only be a few of them, only people who live a life of love will be able to muster this strength of resistance against worldly powers who plan to eliminate everything that is associated with a belief in Jesus Christ, the divine Redeemer. And only then will the human being prove that he is a Christian, only then will he be able to consider himself a member of the church founded by Jesus Christ, which subsequently will also profess Jesus Christ before God, the Father, as He predicted ….

The church of Christ no longer numbers many followers, and the more love grows cold amongst people the smaller the flock of true Christians will become, because love must definitely be practiced in order for people to be regarded as true Christians and to provide a fellow human being with a shining example of the true church on earth, which does not require any official affiliation with a denomination but only a life according to the divine commandments, which first of all call for love, but which then will also exhibit the certain characteristic that demonstrates the founder of the church …. the working of the spirit in all members …. The church of Christ is not an externally recognisable building, it is only the union of profoundly believing people who are in most intimate contact with the founder of the church, with Jesus Christ, and thus are also enlightened, guided and permeated by His spirit and are also truly able to work remarkably with the spiritual strength. Strong faith and profound love prove the affiliation with the church of Christ and only its followers will survive the final battle of faith, because they will fight with Jesus Christ Himself and will, therefore, also be victorious over the one who opposes Christ, over God’s adversary and his vassals …. For Jesus Christ will appear in power and glory on the last day and fetch His small congregation to Himself into the kingdom of peace, but He will place his adversary into chains and with him all those who are enslaved by him ….

Amen

I give you the means to do good vineyard work. I not only demand your commitment but I give you everything you need in order to be able to work for Me and My kingdom, for good work also requires the appropriate means. And you should be able to dispose of them in abundance, you should not lack them because you would therefore be forced to carry out less good work …. It is My will that you take care of the previously wrongly cultivated soil …. that you remove what is harmful and add to it what promotes growth …. For this is the fundamental evil, that people are indiscriminately offered everything in a jumble and asked to believe it, and that no good fruit can flourish where bad seed has been planted. Clean the field before you sow good seed, that is, make people aware of the error which has poisoned their thinking, which obstructs the truth, which therefore has to be removed before the path to truth, which leads to beatitude, can be entered. It would truly be easy to convey the truth to people if they were completely free from erroneous thoughts, if they did not have to get rid of them first, because both cannot coexist. The field of the heart can only produce good or bad fruit …. but the good fruit cannot flourish if weeds or poisonous plants extract everything from the soil that is supposed to serve as nourishment for the good plant …. Understand this, you humans …. you will not accept the truth as long as you are filled with error, and you must first get rid of error and, if you cannot do it yourselves, let yourselves be helped by My servants …. from those who have experience, who shall prepare the soil in all human hearts for the reception of a seed which I Myself supply to them, so that good fruit can come forth when My servants are diligently active …. Know that your hearts are the fields where I want to plant the seed, My word, so that it will bear abundant fruit in you …. know that My word, however, can only take root where the ground is prepared for it, where everything has been removed which stood in the way of My word …. of pure truth …. know that every error signifies a defence for the pure truth from Me and that therefore this error has to be eradicated if a good harvest is to be achieved. But where My servants are active, whom I have equipped for their work, there is the possibility that all error will disappear, for they work with My word, which has its effect, which is strength and light at the same time, which exposes all wrong and illuminates it, so that it will gladly be given in exchange for pure truth where only the will for it exists, where human hearts surrender themselves without resistance to those who are active in My kingdom in a refining and fruitful way …. For these work for Me, and they can always be certain of My blessing if they consciously wage battle against the one who is the enemy of truth and therefore My adversary ….

Amen

You humans are to be given an indication of the significance of your earthly walk so that you do not live thoughtlessly into the day, so that you become aware of your responsibility, so that you live a meaningful and purposeful life on earth. Your existence as a human being is a gift of grace which you should make good use of, it is only an opportunity for your soul to deal with a guilt and to pay it off before it has an extremely painful effect in the kingdom, where the soul will then be considered according to this guilt or will have to live in want. The fact that you are burdened by guilt and what this guilt consists of must be brought to your attention in earthly life, and you do well to desire clarification about it and then live your earthly life accordingly …. But if you don’t regard earthly life as a means to an end but as an end in itself, then you will hardly benefit your soul during your earthly existence, and then you will not have utilized a gift of grace, you will have mismanaged the pound which was given to you so that you could buy your soul’s freedom by increasing it through conscious work on yourselves. No human being remains entirely without indications, for the power Which created you humans pursues a purpose with this creation and therefore has to make you humans aware of this purpose …. And therefore It addresses you, It has made the connection between It and you possible through the word and thus gives you knowledge through the word of your earthly life task, of your state and your aim. Yet you humans are mostly without faith and therefore attach no value to this divine word …. It seems unreal to you and therefore no longer has an effect on you. Yet your attitude does not change the fact that you will live your earthly life in vain if you have not achieved the purpose of ridding yourselves of your guilt, which is the reason for your embodiment on earth …. Then only your flesh has ‘lived’, but your I, the soul, has not escaped death, from which it should free itself during earthly life …. Your soul must now enter the spiritual kingdom in a lifeless state, i.e. without light and without strength, yet conscious of its existence …. But on the other hand, just as you would be granted a life of strength and bliss if you used your earthly life properly …. if you believed what you were taught …. what is proclaimed to people through the word of God …. You humans are always and constantly given instructions but only in a form which does not make your will unfree, and precisely because of your free will it must also be left up to you how you adjust yourselves to these instructions …. But God will not cease to speak to you urgently in whatever form it takes …. He will pursue you with His admonitions and warnings, He will send messengers to you who speak on His behalf, He will try to awaken your sense of responsibility and do everything to make the significance of earthly life clear to you, even though it always remains up to your free will to live it appropriately ….

Amen

How abysmally low are men who no longer hold the lives of their fellow men sacred …. who mercilessly set themselves up as judges over their brethren and judge arbitrarily, depriving them of freedom and harming them in body and soul …. They are willing servants of satan, devilish in mind, devoid of love, unjust in thought and action …. They are truly people who have become devils, who no longer deserve mercy and who must therefore be put out of harm’s way when the time comes …. God’s adversary makes use of them and they willingly do what he urges them to do …. There is no more love amongst people and even less justice, everyone only seeks his own advantages and forces them upon himself at the expense of his fellow human beings …. And these are no longer isolated cases but the whole of humanity is moving in this direction, even if not always obviously, but mentally many people are also sinning who do not detest or condemn what is obviously the work of satan. The world has become accustomed to outrages that cry out to heaven …. It tolerates instead of opposing, it does not help where help is needed …. And the number of devils grows with every day, and their evil deeds increase …. But the time will come when everyone will have to answer to God, when no one will be able to hide from Him and when all evil deeds will be revealed …. People no longer believe in a God, they do not believe in a judge before whom they must answer, and they do not believe in retribution …. Yet they will have to pay their debt in pennies and nickels, nothing will be forgiven, every wrong will demand its atonement, and the freedom they abused will be transformed into a captivity which they will have to endure for eternities, because otherwise their guilt cannot be redeemed, because otherwise they cannot attain correction. Only the deeply sunk will have to endure such torment, yet before the end of this earth people will have reached the deepest depth, and apart from the small flock of God-faithful people the earth will only have devils left, representatives of him who rages on earth because he knows that he doesn’t have much time left …. He is already unmistakably active now, for he drives people to cruelty, to lies and intrigue, he puts people into greatest distress who are not at his beck and call …. Satan has embodied himself in his helpers and abettors. And the world is full of sin …. The time of tribulation has begun, ushering in the end, and it will proceed as proclaimed in word and scripture …. The persecution of those will begin who are not willing to serve Him, who want to remain faithful to God and therefore have to endure a time of struggle which is directed against God Himself …. But then the end will also be here, then the time will be fulfilled and satan’s activity will come to an end …. Then the day of judgement will come when accountability will be demanded, when God’s justice will balance everything out, when everyone will receive what he deserves ….

Amen

Whoever pays tribute to the world also pays tribute to Satan …. these Words are harsh and will severely hurt all worldly people, for no person wants to be accused of associating with Satan and yet, the world is his domain and thus everyone who is captivated by the world is also his servant. You humans live indeed in the midst of the world, as long as you live on earth you must certainly assert yourselves in the world, yet to what extent your heart is involved in it is the decisive factor as to how much you subject yourselves to the world …. Your innermost striving, your heart’s desire, will be judged, and if this concerns the world then you are also enslaved by the one who is its prince, for then you will be purely earthly-minded, whereas you should strive towards spiritual matters and therefore have to overcome material things in order to obtain spiritual possessions. You cannot avoid the world but must overcome it, i.e., at the beginning of your earthly life as a human being you are placed into the world which belongs to God’s adversary and have to take up the fight against it in order to emerge victorious and then enter that world which is spiritual, called the kingdom of God …. You must travel the path through earthly life, through the material world, but you must liberate yourselves from the restraints which have to be regarded as Satan’s chains as long as you are under the spell of the world, as long as you longingly desire what you should overcome.

The material world is his kingdom …. It shelters the fallen spiritual substances which belong to him but which are not at his disposal as long as they are bound in the works of creation by God’s will. He can, however, influence the human being because in the state of free will he must be subject to every influence in order to make a decision, in order to pass the test of will which is the reason and purpose of his earthly life. And God’s adversary uses this influence in a truly frightening way …. He does not want to lose the soul due to its own free choice and therefore lures the human being to his side by offering everything he deems desirable but which belongs to his world, which separates him from God, which diverts him from the goal he is meant to reach on earth. He is lord over matter, lord over the material world …. and everyone who serves the world serves him …. everyone who desires the world and associates with material wealth associates with Satan, and he must be told this truth, he cannot be gently treated due to ill-conceived consideration by withholding this truth from him …. He is connected with Satan and his servant, thus he will also share his fate when the day of retribution comes …. Two lords wrest for your souls and both are offering you their kingdoms …. yet one is transient, the other is everlasting …. You, however, are immortal, and if you have not acquired the everlasting kingdom on earth then you will have nothing after the death of your body but profound darkness around you which will torment you indescribably …. the kingdom of Satan, who cannot offer you anything else but whose followers you have increased through your desires on earth. Detach yourselves from him while you are still living on earth, renounce what belongs to the world, strive for spiritual wealth which alone guarantees you an eternal life, a life in light and strength and beatitude ….

Amen

Trust the guidance from above, it will always be right as soon as you want to be guided by Him, Who is the father of you all. Devotion to Him, the voluntary subordination of your will to His, ensures this right guidance for you …. Your thoughts will correspond to His divine will, and your speech and actions will likewise meet His approval, because you are guided by the forces which create and work with Him in the same will and to whose care you are handed over …. Your will towards Him, your God and father of eternity, determines all your ways, your thoughts and actions. Therefore you do not need to think about what you should do …. only hand yourselves over to Him first in thought, in silent prayer or mental devotion to Him and His will, then you will be relieved of all responsibility, for then you will be guided by His spirit and you will always do what is right before God. Only your own will can act against it, i.e. if you forget the father in heaven, if you believe that you have to and can arrange everything yourselves, if you don’t ask for His help …. thus go your ways alone …. then you may well turn off onto a wrong path if you are without a guide, and then you will have to be on your guard. For apparently you have success …. a success which, however, is only a failure because it only blesses the body but not the soul. The right path, however, which God guides you on, can sometimes appear burdensome for the body but make the soul extremely happy, which can increasingly detach itself and feels liberated because the body relieves it of a burden it had to carry, the body is intended to help the soul …. and that often means its own complaints …. If the body shakes these off and wants to go through earthly life light-heartedly, then the soul has to carry on carrying its burden and cannot rise to spiritual heights …. But divine guidance will always take the body’s condition into account, for God’s love will then take care of the human being who trustingly hands himself over to Him and appeals for His help. And then every walk will be blessed, every path will lead to the right aim, because He leads the way, Who is your father and protector and to Whom you can entrust yourselves in all adversities of body and soul ….

Amen

In the last days the pure truth will be particularly attacked, which is the work of Satan who, being God’s adversary, wants to undermine the truth by confusing people’s thoughts so that they cannot recognise the truth as such any longer. And his methods and tactics are so well devised that even people whose will does not oppose Me often do not want to see the situation clearly …. but who could see it if they sincerely only wanted the truth. Especially during the last days true and deceptive lights will flash at the same time, and a genuine will for truth is necessary in order to be able to differentiate between them, because it will be difficult to understand the matter …. Because many false Christs and prophets shall arise, as was foretold …. which is also a sign of the end time …. From this follows that they will fight in the same manner, that they will therefore present themselves as messengers from above, that they will speak the words of Christ and foretell the future to people …. but that they are representatives of the one who fights against the truth …. to lead people astray so that they cannot recognise the truth anymore. Thus you don’t always have to search for these false Christs and prophets outside of spiritual life since even the representatives of misguided teachings within the ecclesiastical organisations are false Christs and false prophets …. everyone offering vague, misleading explanations has to be included, as well as all those who try to prevent the pure truth from being given to people, hence all those who adhere to distorted teachings and restrict people’s freedom of thought by withholding from them what could have a clarifying effect ….

Everything that is untrue is the work of false Christs and prophets, and to make a distinction irrefutably requires the sincere will for truth, which also has to be willing to surrender what the person has always endorsed …. if it does not comply with the truth. Hence you humans can only protect yourselves from the actions of God’s adversary during the last days before the end if you place yourselves into the safe hands of God, Who is eternal truth …. if you pray to Him with sincere will for truth that He should protect you from error and then open your eyes and ears …. Then you will emotionally recognise what you should accept or reject …. Then false Christs and false prophets will not be able to dazzle you with a deceptive light …. Then the rising of a soft glow in your heart will give you reassurance that you live in truth, and then you will also maintain this truth with conviction and support its cause during the last battle on this earth …. and you will be true defenders of Christ ….

Amen

The battle of faith still lies ahead of you and I want to find you prepared for this battle …. For this reason My great concern beforehand is to strengthen your faith and to introduce you to knowledge which totally explains to you what lies ahead of you, what is still to come before the end. You must believe in this end so that you can also understand everything, so that you can also understand the battle of faith, which is extremely significant for every individual person. It will not simply be a battle which will result in victory for one or the other of the fighting powers after a certain length of time …. It will be a battle which Satan’s followers will wage against God …. a battle which will not involve earthly possessions but spiritual wealth, a battle in which the souls must decide which side they want to support, although people will also be adversely affected in an earthly way, yet only the soul will triumph or lose, and therefore the outcome of the battle will extend to eternity …. And therefore I will do whatever I can before in order to prepare people for this battle, in order to strengthen them and to inspire them with courage of conviction …. I will seek to increase the army of My fighters, not, because I want to win but because I want them to reap the fruit of a victory themselves, because I don’t want them to descend, to become enslaved by My adversary anew and to remain captive again for an infinitely long time …. At the moment you humans pay little attention to faith, you are rather indifferent towards that which is important …. towards spiritual striving …. you must first be shaken up in order to form a serious opinion about faith …. And that will happen as soon as the battle of faith erupts, for then everyone will be requested to profess Me before the world or to deny Me, to give Me up. And only then will you stand up for Me, if your are conscientious, or abandon Me without hesitation …. for the sake of earthly advantages …. And since the end is very close, this decision is necessary, not before Me, since I know your will; however, you shall be encouraged to think about it once more because you won’t do so of your own accord unless you are forced to do so by the earthly authority …. A few certainly exist who will dwell on it before and who, therefore, will also receive My obvious help by making it easy for them to understand, yet they are only a few, and since I would like to increase their number I will let them point out the end …. Yet these few will barely find credence, for those without spiritual aspiration do not consider an end of this earth possible, yet the manifestations of the last days will not fail to impress the still undecided who could become thoughtful and return to the faith if they are instructed correctly. Correct and truthful instruction can lead to great success where spoilt religious doctrines caused the apostasy from faith, where people are not unwilling to believe but took offence at misguided teachings. They can be won over again for Me and My kingdom, and for the sake of these few many more signs will still occur which will announce the near end and which will not remain without effect on them. The right decision of faith will only be made if such strength of faith exists which accepts all physical disadvantages resulting from it, for the human being with the right realisation knows what it is about and he will gladly give what is taken away from him so as not to endanger the life of the soul. It is the final test of will on this earth; the decision to profess Me before the world regardless of the earthly consequences will determine your fate in eternity. And only a strong and convinced faith will pass this final test, only a strong and convinced faith will stand firm until the end ….

Amen

My eye looks down mercifully to earth where countless people move in darkness, i.e. go their way without knowledge, in front of whom a dense wall is built which darkens everything and denies the rays of light any entrance …. My infinite love also wants to light a bright fire in this dark area which could radiate light on all sides again …. My love would also like to bring the light of realization to these people so that those who are still blind in spirit will become seeing, so that all would be able to behold Me Myself, Whom I want to be aspired to as the aim of their walk on earth …. But Whom they must see in order to recognize that I beckon to them, that I await them at the gate to eternal life …. As long as their eyes cannot see, as long as they are blind in spirit, they are in the night of death, for without light there is no morning, without light there is no bright day …. Only light is life, and only in light can they be active.

But light is truth …. Light is bright recognition and knowledge of the original light of eternity, of the deepest connections between creator, creations and creatures …. Light is all knowledge that corresponds to truth, which shows a clear path, at the end of which I Myself receive the wayfarer …. Light is truth …. My eye mercifully looks down to earth at the great number of people who are without truth …. who are without knowledge or in possession of wrong knowledge and walk and walk without reaching the right aim, and who only enter the right path when the light of truth illuminates it, when their spirit is enlightened, when they catch the ray of love which shall strike their heart and which proves My infinite love for all My creations …. How many people walk close to the right path so that they would only need to take one step to enter it, but which they don’t want to take because they believe they are walking on the right path. But it is not bright and shadowless …. because it is not illuminated by the light of truth. It reveals many dark abysses where the human being is in great danger of falling if he does not turn to the dull glimmer of light from the right path which always directs his steps more and more towards where the light shines brightly and radiantly …. The human being must attain the truth because only then will he be touched by My divine light of love and because only then will he recognize Me correctly and strive towards Me as the aim which alone is desirable to him …. Just desire the truth deep in your heart, and with this desire you kindle the little light, and then you will carry it before you and cover all your paths safely, for the light will always let you recognize the right path, the light has kindled My love in you which you desire as soon as you desire the truth. And the ray of love emanating from Me also leads back to Me …. And walls, however dense, will dissolve in the penetrating light of truth …. the most impenetrable darkness will give way to the light which is the truth from God ….

Amen

Only ever submit yourselves to My will, which only demands love from you, and your way of life on earth will be pleasing to Me, you will find favour in My sight, and you will have won My love, which has indeed applied to you since the beginning but which could no longer touch you in its strength. However, as soon as you have entered into My will, that is, as soon as all your thoughts and intentions strive not to grieve Me, My love can have an effect on you again in all its strength …. i.e. to the extent that you can endure on earth, for you have now returned to Me again, from Whom you once voluntarily separated yourselves. To enter into My will means to make an effort to move within the order which is the fundamental law from eternity, to bring all good qualities to perfection, to discard all bad qualities, to shape yourselves according to divine principle …. to bring love within you to its highest development …. For to be perfected is to be filled with love. Perfection is a divine state, a state which has no lack, which is therefore also a prerequisite to be close to Me, to be united with Me. And in order to achieve this blissful state My creature’s will has to completely conform to My will …. it has to enter into My will so completely that a joint working begins, which also means the same as giving up all resistance, all will of its own …. thus to return to Me in free will …. You humans should achieve this aim on earth, you should prove that you want to belong to Me forever by acknowledging Me alone and striving towards Me, by all your thoughts and endeavours on earth being to live as it pleases Me. This will is the passed test of earthly life, and if this will is in you then you are saved for eternity, for the strength comes to you from Me to carry out your will and to live according to My will, as soon as I only see your will turned towards Me …. I want you to become blissfully happy but cannot force your will into a different direction because you determine it yourselves. Yet My love embraces My living creations which are willing to comply with Me of their own accord …. who have become My children and will remain so for all eternity ….

Amen

The all-filling spirit, the eternal deity Itself, is therefore also active in Its creatures to the extent that they allow it through their will …. Every human being carries a spark of the divine spirit within himself, and thus he is thereby indissolubly connected with the eternal deity …. And this divine spark could have an inconceivable effect on the human being’s thoughts and actions if his will fulfilled the conditions which are the prerequisite for the working of the spirit in the human being. For this spark, as a share of God, as an emanation of Himself, is likewise of immense luminosity …. and therefore radiates the light of wisdom …. it instructs the human being from within and gives him fullest knowledge …. he kindles a bright light in him, and depending on how the human being uses this light, divine abilities develop in him …. until he himself can then work in strength and light …. For all his actions and intentions are based on thoughts which the divine spirit has inspired and guided in the human being. And thus it is truly possible for the human being on earth to accomplish supernatural things and to have knowledge at his disposal which is otherwise completely inaccessible to him, if he thus allows the divine spark within himself, God’s share, unlimited activity …. which, however, always requires the surrender of his own will, the subordination to divine will. Then the spirit of God can completely permeate him, and then the human being only thinks and acts as God wills, as it corresponds to the eternal order, and he is neither limited in his knowledge nor in his strength, for every obstacle to the unrestricted working of the spiritual power has been removed by the human being’s will …. The human being is a vessel which is initially closed and full of rubbish but which can open and completely empty itself in order to make room for the divine spark, so that it can develop freely, so that spiritual strength constantly flows in and now the vessel becomes full of the divine spirit …. from which everything is then possible to work and from which the brightest light radiates …. And man will be powerful and wise, for he is now in constant contact with God Himself, he carries God within himself and is aware of Him …. he lives in and with God and now works from His strength ….

Amen

Only a few people can dictate My will into the pen, only a few have the understanding for what motivates Me to speak in direct contact, only a few understand that the father’s love for His children is so great that He uses every means which promises success …. and only a few believe that it is the father’s voice which wants to make itself heard because the children are in utmost need. And the fact that so few people believe it is due to the fact that My love is no longer recognized …. that people only still believe …. if they believe at all …. believe in a God Whom they fear because they have to answer to Him or honour because they acknowledge His power and greatness …. Love, however, would change this concept of God into a completely childlike view, a God of love would become their father, Whom they could entrust themselves to and Whom they themselves could also love …. But why don’t people recognize Me more as an exceedingly loving father Who knows no other desire than to be able to enfold His children in His arms, Who finds His bliss in preparing His children for bliss …. Why do people only stand shyly and doubtfully in the distance, why does no longing for love drive them into My arms …. because they are no longer able to recognize Me as a God of love, as a father …. because they form a wrong image of Me …. because they are not informed about Me in truth …. because I am presented to them as an angry, punishing God Who demands an account for every sin and judges mercilessly …. But one does not strive for a being who is feared …. At best one conscientiously complies with all requirements, yet only out of fear but never out of love. But I want to be loved …. I want to possess My living creations’ love and do everything to win it, for only a relationship which establishes love can make eternally happy. I alone know where to look for the cause, and I alone know how people can still be helped so that they recognize Me as a God of love and voluntarily strive towards Me …. I must bring Myself close to people, I must go to them because they don’t want to come to Me …. And they must feel My kindness as a blessing so that they will also accept My gift without reluctance, which I bring to them: …. My word, which reveals Me to My creatures in such a way that they are able to love Me …. My word through which I reveal Myself as love. For they did not know Me until now, they have been wrongly instructed, they have formed a wrong image of Me …. My adversary has worked diligently to create this distorted image of Me because he wants people to no longer recognize Me, because he wants to stifle the love for Me in My living creations, which signifies the final return to Me. All you humans who are distant from Me don’t know Me properly and I want to reveal Myself to you as a God of love, wisdom and might, as a father Who desires your love …. And therefore I enter into direct contact with you, I express Myself through an earthly child devoted to Me in order to take the path to all of you, in order to gain your love and to be able to bestow My love upon you …. And blessed are those who believe that it is I Myself, your father from eternity, Who speaks to you …. blessed who accept My words, recognize Me as the eternal love and no longer fail to take hold of the father’s outstretched hand …. blessed who let themselves be drawn by Me ….

Amen

Complete ignorance is a sign of spiritual lowness, for knowledge of divine-spiritual matters does not depend on a person’s intellectual activity or on the amount of knowledge he receives from other people but solely on his soul’s maturity, on the degree of his spiritual development, so that the most simple person whose soul already has a degree of maturity as a result of a life of love will form his own truthful picture of God, of his purpose of earthly life, of his relationship with God, his father of eternity …. Emotionally he will only accept the teachings which correspond to truth, earthly he will perhaps not be very appreciated because of his intellectual knowledge, he will be simple-minded and yet think more correctly in the spiritual sphere …. And the little knowledge is enough to cause him to live a way of life which corresponds to God’s will, but which then, after his death, will earn him brightest light in the spiritual kingdom in a flash …. Not complete knowledge on earth is proof of the soul’s high degree of maturity, for the human being can also acquire spiritual knowledge intellectually, only then it is also more intellectual knowledge than spiritual knowledge if the human being’s way of life corresponds to it, and knowledge which therefore cannot yet be considered spiritual treasure can also be lost to the human being again at the moment of death if it was not accepted by the heart but only by the intellect. For even spiritual knowledge can become pure intellectual knowledge through eager study if the soul’s ascent development is disregarded, if the soul’s degree of maturity is therefore still very low but the intellect, being highly developed, deals with problems which touch spiritual areas. In that case it is not possible to speak of ignorance …. but the ‘knower’ lacks one thing …. the light …. For no matter how much knowledge he acquires on this path, it still does not give him light so that he can now brightly and clearly recognize all correlations, so that he would be happy about his knowledge. Light can only come to him from within as a result of a life of love …. For only the spirit from God radiates light, which first gives the right life to intellectual knowledge …. And only then is it knowledge which can be valued as spiritual treasure, which is everlasting and is taken over into the spiritual kingdom …. And therefore even the pure truth can only be understood when the spirit from God gives enlightenment to the human being, which always presupposes a degree of maturity of soul which can only be achieved through a way of life according to God’s will …. The state of light, the realization, after the human being’s death is then also corresponding, and a good but simple-minded person who had little knowledge on earth can be surrounded by more radiant light upon his entry into the kingdom of the beyond than a person with spiritual knowledge who lacked love on earth and to whom the spirit from God had not yet found access ….

Amen

Request My support in everything you undertake …. Don’t start anything without Me, take no path without Me, always let Me lead the way, then I will be your goal which you will safely reach. And thus you shall also come to Me with all spiritual concerns and you will always receive the correct advice, for then you will be guided by My spirit …. you cannot do anything but think and behave correctly and successfully work for Me and My kingdom …. And it will always appear as if you speak and proceed of your own will. For I don’t manifest Myself so obviously that you would feel compelled to comply with My will, and yet it is My will which is now expressing itself through you. If you first commend all works, thoughts and spoken words to Me, you may also rest assured of My influence, yet this very first contact with Me is essential in order to feel My will in you and to think, speak and act accordingly. And therefore you need not worry that you won’t be able to carry out the work for Me and My kingdom as long as you don’t regard it as an occupation but only ever want to be of service to Me, and thus, as My servants, remain in constant contact with Me in order to receive My instructions. For the latter occurs through your heart into which My spirit will place feelings which will cause you to act in accordance with My will …. And then all your beginnings will be blessed ….

Amen

Return to your original relationship with Me and become again what you were from the beginning, creatures standing in highest perfection, in full possession of light and power …. I make this demand of you …. but I also provide you with the means to comply with My demand, because I know that you are completely powerless in your present state without My help and would not be able to shape yourselves again as you originally emerged from Me. Hence it is not impossible to fulfil My demand, for I take your weakness into account and truly help you in every way to achieve the aim I have set for you …. for I love you and want to see the wretched state you are in transformed into a blissful one. I want to know you beside Me, not under Me …. and My means are of utmost effectiveness …. you can reach the aim but they eliminate all compulsion of will …. And therefore it is your own business when you reach the aim …. otherwise you would truly have been in a state of light and strength long ago but as unfree beings you lacked the highest perfection. Understand it …. you must strive for perfection yourselves, because I respect your free will but therefore also constantly encourage you to make use of My means of help …. You cannot accomplish this work of transformation with your own strength, but My strength is at your disposal without measure. Use it, for this is not within My power if I don’t want to make you unfree. Make use of My grant of grace and you will be powerful and able to achieve everything you want ….

What then are these means of grace? What should you do to put yourselves in possession of power? How can you turn this power to yourselves? …. You should for the time being …. as completely ignorant …. desire truthful knowledge …. which only requires your will …. Then you already let the bestowal of grace become effective on you and you listen to what is proclaimed to you through My word …. And then you make use of a great grant of grace because you already draw strength from My word which now helps you further …. You make use of a further grace by praying, i.e. by mentally establishing the connection with Me and conversing with Me …. Such a prayer connection is a source of strength of unimagined abundance …. Through heartfelt prayer to Me you consciously open yourselves to My influx of grace and you must inevitably experience a change of nature, because My strength will not remain ineffective if it is accepted …. And the change of nature consists of love igniting in you, of you striving towards Me and now entering My flow of love, of you thus accepting again what you once rejected …. that you allow yourselves to be permeated by light and strength of your own free will and always more and more assimilate yourselves to My original nature, thus also coming closer and closer to your original nature, because you have now entered into the right relationship with Me again and now constantly receive light and strength from Me …. because you have now become in your free will what I could not create …. beings equal to Me …. right children of your father from eternity ….

Amen

The unbeliever cannot be given spiritual knowledge because he rejects everything that cannot be proven but only demands faith. But he can be stimulated to work with love, because he can only attain faith on the path of love. An unbeliever’s heart need not be hardened so that he will therefore very well perform works of neighbourly love if he is made aware of his fellow human being’s adversity, if he is encouraged by a well-meaning fellow human being to contribute towards the alleviation of this adversity …. if an appeal is made to his compassion, to his willingness to help and his earthly situation which makes it possible for him to help …. It is the greatest merit of a person who lives in love himself to spur his fellow human being into loving activity, for this can then also result in faith which, without love, is nevertheless only a dead faith and thus not much more valuable than unbelief. As long as a person passes by his fellow human being’s adversity he can also be regarded as unbelieving, even though he calls himself believing. Only when a person’s will to give breaks through, when he seeks to make his fellow human being happy or to avert suffering from him …. when he wants to help …. he is also able to listen to knowledge offered to him and to take a stand on it, and only then is it possible to revive in him a belief in a spiritual kingdom which exists outside the earthly kingdom ….

Therefore it is a futile labour of love to try to convince an unbelieving person intellectually, that is, to present spiritual knowledge to him and persuade him to accept it, because a person without love is not capable of doing so. On the other hand, the divine teaching of love can be presented to him and its effect made credible if such a life of love is exemplified to him and his heart is also appealed to to participate in alleviating his fellow human being’s hardship …. if he is first encouraged to give away his abundance until he then finds happiness himself in doing good …. And then he is also already won, then his resistance to spiritual knowledge becomes less and less, he is shaken in his unbelief …. he begins to think about his life and more willingly accepts what requires faith …. he will learn to believe because he has now become capable of it through love ….

Amen

A person who seriously strives for Me will also reach his goal …. I Am the way, the truth and the life …. Anyone who seeks Me has already entered the path, and he will be guided by Me into the truth which will give him life …. However, anyone who seriously looks for Me will not try to find Me in a specific school of thought for he will know that I can only be found in his heart, that his heart alone is the crucial factor as to whether I Am present where I Am proclaimed …. My doctrine of love can be preached everywhere …. but whether the human being will find Me everywhere is entirely determined by the desire of his heart and …. whether it is genuinely searching for Me …. The Words can ignite everywhere and awaken the yearning of love for Me, but only after they have ignited will the right path have been entered. And then the person will also be capable of discerning the pure truth …. he will accept and strive for that which alone leads to the life which lasts forever. Once the heart has been captured by My Word the connection to Me will have been established and My presence will be assured to him …. Then he will no longer belong to any school of thought but to My church, which I Myself founded on earth and to which any church organisation can lead which proclaims My divine teaching of love, which demands faith in Jesus Christ as the Son of God and Redeemer of the world.

Therefore, do not fight each other if you all strive for Me, for then I will guide you on the right path, on the path of truth, which leads to eternal life. Then everyone belonging to My church will recognise which teachings differ from the pure truth and he will also be able to guide the blind who, unaware of the danger, walk along byways which do not lead to the goal. And if these blind people are also genuinely searching for Me, then they will also allow themselves to be led and be grateful for the help because they recognise My guidance, because …. anyone who seriously tries to find Me …. will also be seized by My love and feel this love of Mine …. I Am the way, the truth and the life …. anyone who endeavours to reach Me, whose heart is turned towards Me, cannot go astray …. And even if he is still caught up in the greatest error, thus still far away from the truth …. he will nevertheless end up in My church which I Myself founded on earth, because his desire for Me, his faith in Me, is the foundation on which My church is built …. For only a profound and living faith will strive for Me, only a profoundly faithful human being has his heart’s desire directed towards Me, and I will truly let Myself be found by him ….

Amen

You people must be given information in the right way, then you will not refuse the doctrines, that are presented to you about Jesus Christ as the Son of God and Savior of the world …. The problem of His incarnation and His death on the cross is so extremely difficult to understand, if it is put down only as a historical fact, because then the way of behaving of the man Jesus is incomprehensible for you, because you will not understand, what this incarnation and death on the cross is based, and then you are tended to deny a mission for all mankind. But if the reason is given to you truthfully, then you learn to understand the redemptive work of Christ …. And then you adapt yourselves differently to that than before. That people lack the knowledge about it, is not because, that the truth would have been withheld them so far …. it is only because, that the people have made themselves incapable for receiving such knowledge, that they consider purely more wordly the life and death of Jesus Christ, that they are more indifferent to learn about the truth. As well as God finds only the slightest question about it in a human, He gives him enlightenment too, but only rarely man asks that question and calls for it, to obtain information about the human Jesus, Who shall be accepted as God …. And yet the belief is absolutely necessary, if the man wants to put himself also into the blessing of the redemptive work …. This is why God gives people an enlightenment, that they could accept well, if they strove for the truth earnestly …. God gives, what people do not demand more of themselves, He hands out that, by which people have deficiency. He gives them a knowledge, that could give light to people with good will, that means knowledge for them, if they just accept it …. He tries to make people understand Jesus’ work of love, that there were not earthly or worldly motives, that let the man Jesus so live and suffer and die, but a spiritual cause based on His earthly life …. to avert an unimaginable distress of the souls of men, that extended over eternal times and only the love of a man could remedy it …. People need to know the spiritual cause, if the redemptive work of Jesus Christ should be judged rightly and the graces of which should be accepted. People must know, that they go to meet an unimaginably painful condition, if they do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as savior, and then they do not even belong to the redeemed, for whom the man Jesus Christ died on the cross …. they should know, that it is not the same, whether they acknowledge Him or not …. And to be able to recognize Him, they should be introduced in the truth …. They should be taught in a right way by God Himself, what the son of man moved, to take a superhuman suffering upon Himself, which ended with His death on the cross ….

Amen

For you I died on the cross …. for you I walked a path which was exceedingly difficult to travel because I was not allowed to walk freely but had to carry a great burden …. your guilt of sin, which I took from you so that this burden should no longer press you …. I walked a path of atonement for you who would have had to bear it all yourselves and would have taken eternities to do so until every sin debt was paid off …. I took this burden from you and made atonement for you because your fate took pity on Me, because I was filled with overwhelming love for you and because I wanted to help you in your adversity …. I had to endure immense suffering and immeasurable physical and mental torment for the sake of your sin, which kept you separated from your father for eternity. Yet I wanted to make it possible for you to return to Him again; I wanted you to find your way to the father, but I also wanted the father to have His children again, whose love He desires because you are children of His love. I knew about the immense gulf between God and you …. I knew about the great guilt of sin of the former rebellion of the created beings against God …. I knew what your sin consisted of and that the redemption of this guilt (which would have required eternities) could not be atoned for in eternity …. Therefore I wanted to sacrifice Myself, I wanted to offer a sacrifice of atonement in your stead to God, which He should accept graciously, because only love for God and for you, My fallen brothers, let Me make this sacrifice …. I wanted to pay your guilt through My death on the cross …. Due to your past apostasy from God you were separated from Him by an infinitely long distance, and you would have had to remain at this distance for eternities, because no path led upwards to Him, Who was the father of all of you. For something freely and powerfully created, however, the distance from God is an unspeakable state of torment …. to be bound and without light and power …. bound by a God-opposing power. I knew about this state, and it had mercy on me …. I wanted to initiate a path upwards …. I wanted to wage a battle against the one who kept you bound …. I wanted to redeem you from his power …. But the ransom was high …. My adversary demanded a price for the souls that was almost unaffordable …. and so I offered the highest I possessed …. I gave My life on the cross …. However, I first had to divest Myself of My light and My strength, which was My own in all fullness as a sign of My belonging to God …. I had to descend to humanity from the height of light, I had to make the sacrifice as a human being Myself and thus walk a path of suffering which had your redemption as its aim …. And through My path of the cross I opened the way for you humans to ascend, to God. You can now take this path yourselves and reach God if you follow Me, if you accept My sacrifice, if you place yourselves under Christ’s cross, if you want Me to have died for you too …. then you too will be redeemed through Jesus Christ’s blood …. then your great guilt of sin will have been redeemed …. Then the sacrifice for you was not made in vain …. I have wrested you from the adversary of God, and you return as true children to your father from eternity ….

Amen

Walking the path to Golgotha is the true following of Christ …. You will not understand this if you believe that Jesus Christ went this way for you, that He took upon Himself all the agonies of this way of the cross because of your sins, and that He therefore took away your suffering and bore it Himself for you. And you are also in right faith about this …. He has redeemed the guilt for you through His suffering and death on the cross …. But the crowning glory of His earthly life was His union with His father from eternity …. He joined Himself to Him eternally …. He and the father became one …. And in order to reach this aim, following Jesus is the only way …. in order to reach this aim, man must also take upon himself a sorrowful earthly life, he must patiently go the earthly way to the end, no matter how great the suffering, how great the afflictions and hardships it brings …. He must drink the cup to the full and only ever keep the divine lord and saviour in mind, Whom he strives to follow and Whom he also wants to be united with for all eternity …. From Him the human being will also receive strength, and if the human being becomes weak, the saviour Jesus Christ will stand beside him and support him, He will help him carry the cross until he has reached his aim …. And now you will understand why devout, God-surrendered people are often pursued by suffering and illness, why they have been burdened with a cross that seems almost unbearable to them …. It concerns God’s childship, the union with Him in such a way that they – as being closest to the father – can receive unlimited strength and light and feel unlimited bliss, which only the complete union with Him can trigger, and this state is therefore the most delicious thing that can be achieved on earth, yet at great sacrifice, at the sacrifice of everything that on earth the human being finds pleasant …. He must in truth take the path to Golgotha …. He must no longer see the world, he must cover it step by step with his eyes turned away from it in misery and agony. He must know that his body only suffers for the soul so that it can then come before the face of God as completely purified in order to be accepted by the father with deepest love, as His child which followed Him for His sake, which walked the path of the cross on earth for His sake and which He now introduces into all the rights of a child …. for it has – having already returned to the father – now also taken and passed the test on earth which every created angelic being has to pass for complete fusion with its creator and father of eternity in order to be able to create and work as perfected in the kingdom of light ….

Amen

A living word spoken to you will not fail to have an effect either, because you penetrate its spiritual meaning, because your heart is addressed by it, which now also moves within itself and withdraws the strength from it with which I have blessed My word. If only you would let My word speak to you alive there would truly be no spiritual hardship amongst you, for whose voice you willingly listen to you will also comply with his desire, and thus the fulfilment of My will would be guaranteed and thus order would also be restored, which has been the original law since eternity …. This is why I speak to you directly again and again, this is why I seek the path to your heart through My word …. This is why I approach you Myself and seek to rouse you from an inactive state through My voice, I penetrate, as it were, the silence of inactivity with My voice …. I address you …. I can only influence you through My word, and your will itself must utilize the word …. But My word sounds like heavenly music to the soul as soon as it is able to hear it …. And it will hear it when the human being accepts My word, when he thinks about it, when he lets it speak to him himself, when it can reach the heart, which is synonymous with the soul hearing it …. Words which only sound to the ear, words which only touch the eye and don’t let them come to consciousness, are dead words without spirit and life …. But My word becomes alive if you first make contact with Me, if you desire to be addressed by Me and then read or listen to what I have to say to you …. Then you will hear My voice directly, as it were, even if you take it from the book which contains My word …. I also speak to you directly in these words because you desire to receive strength from Me, because this desire caused you to read or hear My word. Anyone who desires to be addressed by Me is also already in the blessing and strength of My word …. Anyone who willingly opens his ear where My word can be heard is addressed by Me Myself, and My word is truly alive in him and has an invigorating strength …. it impels activity which corresponds to My will; it impels activity of love and prayer: …. For anyone who has once heard My living word will not stop there, he will enter into contact with the one Who speaks words of love and grace to him, and he will never ever break off this contact …. He has found a friend he no longer wants to miss, with Whom he can speak at any time in words or in thoughts and Who responds to everything, Who now supplies him with the strength to also live out the word, to not only be a listener but a doer of the word, which will sound as a sign of My presence to everyone who wants to awaken to life ….

Amen

I give My word to all of you, I convey the gospel to all of you in all purity, and all of you may receive it through My disciples whom I send out again with the task of spreading it amongst people …. You must know about My teaching of love, about My act of salvation, you must know what you should do in order to become blessed; you must be instructed about the kind of soul work you should carry out on yourselves, and you shall be informed about the effects of a good and also a bad earthly life after the death of your body …. I convey the gospel to all of you through My messengers …. And you can experience for yourselves that it is pure truth as soon as you fulfil My commandments of love, as soon as you are not only listeners but doers of My word. Then all My words will be confirmed, then My promises will be fulfilled, which are always subject to certain conditions, which you should therefore know about …. I Myself must speak to you, you must hear from Me Myself for the sake of My will, otherwise you will not let yourselves be impressed, even if you are inspired by human beings to change your way of life. The strength of My word shall take effect on you, you shall be inspired to love, to be active according to My will …. And therefore I send you My messengers who shall speak to you in My name, who can therefore speak vividly because they have been introduced into life by Me Myself and because they possess something themselves which they shall give to you …. the pure truth as it originated from Me …. To convey this truth to you is their mission, their office, for which I Myself have chosen and trained them. Therefore you can believe them if they bring you My word, you can take it to heart and let it become a treasure within you …. you need not doubt their words, for it is not they but I who speak to you through them, only that I use a human form so as not to make you unfree in your will and faith …. Accept what they proclaim to you and obey their words and you will noticeably feel the strength …. you will be beneficially touched by them if you yourselves are of good will and allow My words to have an effect on you …. For they only proclaim My word to you …. they only tell you what you should do to become blessed ….

Amen

Receive the message of the lord:

When I gave you life I pursued a purpose …. to manifest Myself in you, i.e., to give My strength and My light forms which were in contact with each other as beings and which all carried Me Myself as the strength of love within them …. so that I shaped Myself, as it were, in these beings, so that they were the same as I Myself, yet each standing in self-awareness …. that I therefore wanted to create gods like Myself …. Thus I created perfection from Myself, I multiplied Myself in these beings created by Me, since they were created in the same perfection and since nothing could arise from Me which was deficient. I Myself was represented in all these beings, I had called them into existence as a reflection of Myself, although I Myself was not visible to these beings. I created miniatures of Myself …. and enjoyed these creations ….

Yet everything perfectly created was My work …. it was My will in it, it was permeated by My love and consequently only something created which could not be other than it was …. And this did not satisfy Me, for I wanted something equally free around Me which, like Myself, could move in all freedom …. I had to put it outside independently of Me in equal strength and light and put it to the test that it now utilized the complete freedom granted to it as it corresponded to My will …. without, however, determining its nature through My will …. I had to give it complete freedom of will and, as it were, isolate Myself from it …. so that the being could now prove its divinity and remain in the perfection in which I created it …. although it could also make wrong use of its strength and will …. I wanted to have gods beside Me with whom I could work and create in supreme bliss …. But I could not create these gods for Myself, I could only give them the ability to shape themselves into gods …. I wanted the same bliss that filled Me to also be granted to the beings I called into being in an immeasurable urge for happiness and shaping, which always increased the more I created …. (22.10.1953) I did not want them to remain eternally only My creatures, determined by My will in their actions and thoughts …. I wanted every being to create freely for itself, independent of My will, because I knew that a perfect being always carried My will within itself …. Thus a being which was perfectly created by Me would not have been capable of a will which opposed Me if it had not also had a free will at the same time which could determine itself. And this free will was the decisive factor. By virtue of free will the being could remain in its perfection given to it by Me but it could also depart from it …. the being, which I had shaped most perfectly, could reshape itself, forfeit its perfection and become a creature which was no longer in My image …. but it was a free being which could dispose of itself and also reshape itself again in My image …. It was able to become perfect again but then it was no longer My creature but My child …. My image which had become in free will, a divine being which stood outside of Me and yet was intimately fused with Me through the same love, the same will and the same nature …. It was not possible for Me to create something imperfect which was to achieve the transformation into My image, for only the most perfect can emerge from Me, yet the will of the created being itself must accomplish the transformation of the created into gods …. because free will irrevocably belongs to the highest perfection ….

Since the principle of love is predominant in Me, since I Myself am eternal love, only love has ever been decisive in the act of creation, and love also pursues a aim …. a state of bliss for My creations which is unsurpassable, however, only when the creatures have become My children …. For My created works, despite all perfection, cannot be called blissfully happy indefinitely as long as they do not possess free will. Free will, however, must prove perfection …. that which is given to the being, it must value it and want to keep it, despite the possibility of giving it up …. And this decision has been demanded of the perfectly created by Me and will be demanded of it until the being has reached its aim, until it strives for perfection, for union with Me, of its own free will …. until it has become My image ….

Amen
