Choose a proclamation

Disbelief in an end ….

B.D. 7549 from March 15th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

There is not much time left until the end …. even if you believe that the announced end will be in the distant future …. you will be surprised how the signs will increase and the point in time you live in will become only too evident. But everything will always proceed within the framework of natural progression, and that will raise your hope time and again that the end is still far away. However, your will shall remain free until the last day, for you cannot reach your goal by force which consists of establishing your bond with Me, of voluntarily raising your hands to Me and thereby acknowledging Me, Whom you did not want to acknowledge until now. Earthly life will therefore make great demands on you, you will have to endure many adversities and always have the opportunity to turn to Me …. But everything will take place entirely naturally, although the awakened person will recognise it as the last signs before the end. And if I repeatedly proclaim that you are shortly before the end …. that you are only granted a little more time on this earth, then you should take this declaration very seriously and not always relate it to the future in line with people’s point of view …. You ought to understand the words as they are given to you, you ought to take them literally, and you will do well by doing so …. For the time is close at hand when the earth will be cleansed and a new earth will arise again …. But regardless of how urgently I speak to you, you don’t want to believe it, and I cannot provide you with any other evidence that My Word is truth other than that you will soon be shocked by a natural event and that you can then equally surely count on the end. Yet do you know whether you will survive the former or fall victim to this natural event?

Hence you should likewise consider it an end, for many people will thereby find their demise, and their life will not last much longer anymore. So don’t be thoughtless and prepare yourselves, even if earthly life around you shapes itself as if only progress and prosperity exist …. Just one day, and everything will have disappeared and fallen prey to the destruction of natural forces, and the survivors will be presented with dreadful sights, because it is My will that they should come to their senses and still use the remaining time of grace they have left until the end. For everything I announce to you humans through seers and prophets will come to pass word for word, and you will soon experience the truth of My Word, and blessed is he Who accepted My Word and then found his path to Me, for in great adversity he will always find a way out, he will manifestly experience My help which I have promised to all of you who call upon Me ….

For this reason I speak to you, so that you can appeal to Me for strength in advance and then in utmost distress, when you only have My help to rely on …. you will receive it, for I do not forget My Own …. Therefore take care that you are counted amongst My Own ….Call upon Me in times of need, and I will answer your prayer ….

Amen

Revival of the spirit …. address of God ….

B.D. 7550 from March 16th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

The word of God is offered to you as pure as it flows from the mouth of God …. He speaks to you and you hear Him, you can hear His voice because He speaks through a human being to all of you who desire to hear Him …. You are in contact with the eternal word, for the word Itself leans towards you and desires entrance into your hearts. The eternal deity, the supreme spirit in infinity, empties Himself towards you, He makes His will known to you, He guides you into truth, He gives you knowledge and also gives you the right understanding for it …. But He demands one thing: that you listen to Him with an awakened spirit, otherwise everything presented to you will remain incomprehensible to you. Thus God requires you to awaken your spirit to life, and this means that you are initially willing to come close to God. And when He then makes His will known to you through His word, you will understand this will of His and strive to fulfil it …. you will endeavour to live in love …. And then the spirit in you will also be awakened to life through love, and then everything conveyed to you through the word of God will be understandable to you …. And thus you first have to be given the opportunity to listen to His word so that you will be encouraged to look for an approach to Him, so that His will will be made known to you, the fulfilment of which will result in the awakening of the spirit. And only then can further knowledge be offered to you such that you understand it and it can benefit your soul. And then you will also remain in constant contact with the word of eternity, for then you will desire His address and God will not deny Himself to you …. He will speak to you directly or through His messengers who will bring His word to you. And the people who have already given life to their spirit will always feel touched by God’s address …. they will recognize the father’s voice straight away, and they will be delighted to be addressed by Him. Nevertheless, the word of God shall also be brought to those who are still unawakened, they, too, shall hear His voice, and they will feel addressed or remain untouched according to their will …. but the grace has been offered to them which they must use in order to also experience their blessing. But the fact that eternal love condescends to speak to you humans is an overwhelming grace which you all don’t make enough use of, for hearing the heavenly father’s voice is the most beautiful thing for your soul which can be offered to it on earth. God speaks with His creature, the father speaks with His child …. His word sounds clearly and purely, and every word from His mouth is truth which will always make people happy as long as it remains unadulterated and pure. This is why only the awakened spirit can hear His voice and recognize it as His voice, whereas the unawakened person can certainly be offered the same from outside and lacks the understanding for it until he, too, has awakened the spirit within himself to life. But then he is blissfully happy when he recognizes the father’s voice and feels addressed by Him. And thus you will all be addressed by God if you heartily desire to hear Him, for then His word will be imparted to you, always in a way which is beneficial for you and your souls, as you adjust yourselves and give Him the opportunity that He can address you …. be it through hearing or reading or through the inner word which can be heard by a person in direct contact with God if it is God’s will that he receives His word for himself and his fellow human beings in order to spread it and convey it to all those who likewise desire to hear God …. The will and desire for His address also secures it for you, for God reveals Himself to everyone who loves Him and keeps His commandments …._>Amen

Faith can move mountains ….

B.D. 7551 from March 17th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

Faith can move mountains …. But which of you humans has such strong faith? You are all still too weak in faith because you are also too weak in love, for only love gives faith strength, because love itself is strength …. And thus a person’s degree of love will always determine how strong his faith is. And therefore it is also understandable why humanity can be called faithless, for love has grown cold amongst people and therefore there can be no true, living faith where love is missing. But where faith is no longer to be found humanity also lives in profound spiritual darkness, for it cannot be given bright knowledge, and the spiritual knowledge imparted to people is not believed …. and faithless humanity lives in deepest darkness, whereas everything is bright and clear for a person who has gained a living faith through love. And this person only needs to increase his degree of love in order to attain a faith which can move mountains. Yet there are only a few people on this earth who possess such strong faith, and these are also capable of unusual activity which always expresses their high degree of love. They will be able to heal the sick, they will be able to work miracles, for the strength of their faith unites them even more closely with God so that, in union with Him, they will now also be able to accomplish everything their love commands them to do. For it will only ever be the working of love which arises from the strength of faith. The great, overpowering love drives them to help those who are in need, and the strength of faith also always ensures the success of their plan. Faith can move mountains …. Thus nothing is impossible for a person who calls such strong faith his own, which he has gained through love …. But people will always doubt it as long as they don’t also live in love which has already earned them a faith which is alive, although it has only reached a low degree. Yet living faith is evidence of love, and love also gives light to the one who desires light …. And he will soon recognize the strength of faith, and it will no longer be difficult for him to have a living faith himself …. and then he only needs to increase his degree of love in order to also feel that the strength of his faith becomes ever stronger …. And then he will also stand up for what he believes with conviction, and he will feel his own strength growing and no longer doubt that a strong faith can also move mountains …. As soon as he has love he also possesses strength, and he can now use this strength as his love dictates …. He will turn it towards his neighbour who is in need, he will be able to help him where help often seems impossible, for he possesses a strong faith and does not work alone but with God Who is in him …._>Amen

Unusual gift of grace ….

B.D. 7552 from March 18th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

And you have truly been given much grace to receive My word, for you now have proof that your God and father takes care of you, that He will not leave you in adversity even though you have created it yourselves. I do not leave you to your fate, even if you have chosen it voluntarily, but I help you to become free from all burden which signifies the guilt of sin you are in. You receive My word from above, I am present to you and speak to you, you can hear My voice, and you also sense that it is My voice if only a spark of faith and love is left in you. And therefore I speak to you again and again in order to kindle this spark, so that it will become bright in you and you can precisely recognize the path you have to take in order to come out of the valley of sin and death. I kindle a light in you and now you also recognize that your path is not the right one, that you have to turn back if you want to reach the right aim. And My word always presents the right aim to you, My word admonishes and warns you and encourages you to seek and take the right path …. You only need to listen to Me, you only need to pay attention to My word, and you will be guided on the right path and safely reach the aim, to Me, Who is your father from eternity. Oh, if only you would all pay attention to this great grace, if only you would all desire to hear your father’s voice …. You would truly turn back on your path, you would give up the previous way of life and strive for only one aim: Me Myself, Who addresses you with heartfelt love and Whose love you could also feel if only you would always make an effort of good will to do what is right. For you can only hear Me or recognize My word as the father’s voice if you desire to be addressed by your father …. And if My messengers offer you My word then you should not reject it but first let yourselves be addressed by Me. And you would feel that I speak to you if you received My word into your hearts completely impartially and moved it therein …. This grace of My address is granted to many people, for I know where My messengers carry My word which they receive directly from Me …. I know which path this word will take, and I bless all those who gratefully receive it and allow themselves to be addressed by Me …. who are willing to listen to their father in heaven and who open their hearts when My address is sounded to them. For not only the ear and intellect shall receive it but it shall be moved in the heart, and it will also touch the heart like the loving word of the father Who speaks to His child. And thus My grace will never stop bestowing Itself upon you, My love will always find its way to you who are willing to make contact with Me; you will hear words of love and comfort, words of instruction and admonition, you will be addressed as you need it for your souls to mature, and your heart will rejoice when you open it to grant Me entrance when I want to address it Myself …. And if the human being now recognizes My unusual gift of grace and allows it to take effect in him, he will achieve great spiritual gain, his soul will mature, it will seek the bond with Me and never ever want to relinquish it, it will constantly desire to hear the father’s address and always listen to what the father has to say to it …. And I will be able to speak to My child and impart profound wisdom to it …. Yet the gift of grace must always be recognized and desired, the child must always want to go to the father and listen to His address, it must always desire Me Myself and I will give Myself to it, I will give it what its soul needs for maturity …._>Amen

Will guarantees the power to work the vineyard ….

B.D. 7553 from March 19th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

To whom I give an office I also give the ability to administer it …. And whomever I have chosen to work in My vineyard will also be able to do so, for he receives from Me everything that is necessary for this …. He receives the right seed and also the strength to work with it according to My will. Only he must have offered himself to Me for service, for no human being will need to do such work against his will, because then it would be pointless, for success can only be achieved where love is active. And thus a true vineyard labourer should carry out his work with love …. The preacher of My teaching should take the spiritual hardship of his fellow human being to heart and try to remedy this hardship …. Then he will truly be able to achieve good success, then his work will be successful and bring him blessings. And everyone will be able to create and work according to his ability, for I will place everyone where he finds a suitable field of work which he can then also master. Therefore only the earnest will is necessary to be allowed to work for Me in My vineyard, and he will now also be assigned the work as he can manage it, as it corresponds to his ability. And every labourer in My vineyard should also wait until I call him to the right activity, for I know when the day and hour has come for him to work, and then I will call him Myself and he will gladly do his work. I need all of you, My servants on earth, for there is great spiritual hardship and much of the good seed with which I provide for you beforehand still has to be scattered so that you will not lack it. And My seed is My word which comes to you from above. Anyone who passes on this word of Mine, who ensures that it is spread, is a good worker for Me and will truly be blessed, for people need My word, the gospel must be proclaimed to them, they must know about My will, about My commandments, about their task on earth and about all difficulties they are facing …. They must know that they are close to the end and that they should do nothing more urgently than work on their souls, because there is not much time left. This is the task of every servant on earth who has entrusted himself to Me to work in My vineyard. Each one shall draw his fellow human beings’ attention to the word from above, each one shall proclaim the father’s great love Who wants to win His children back, each one shall pass on the divine teaching of love which makes My will known to them. Then he will be a good servant and I will reward his work …. And no-one need fear that he is not up to this work, for everyone will also have the opportunity to do so, for I will guide his fellow human beings into the way as they are willing to accept My word, and it will then arise of its own accord whether they accept My word or not. But you, My servants on earth, you must be mediators through whom I Myself can address people who do not yet allow a direct address. And thus you only need to want to serve Me and everything will approach you such that you will thus serve Me, consciously or unconsciously. For it is truly easy for Me to give you the gift of speech when you need it, when I want to address a fellow human being through you. But I must possess your will, which is free …. And I bless his will if it applies to Me and wants to contribute towards the redemption of the unfree …. And I will also always give you as much strength as you need for your vineyard work …. You will always be able to do it because this work is the most important and therefore it is also My will that you work with My strength. Therefore, never fear becoming unfit for work which is particularly urgent in the last days before the end and which has to be carried out of your own free will, for I keep My servants capable as long as I need their services …. And I also know how long you are still to serve Me and what task I set for everyone in the last days before the end …. And as long as I provide you with strength and protectively hold My hands over you …. and as long as you shall also fulfil your office which I have assigned to you …._>Amen

Urgent address to vineyard workers ….

B.D. 7554 from March 20th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

My blessing will truly not fail to come to all who want to serve Me in the last days before the end …. If I repeatedly admonish you to diligently work in the vineyard, there is certainly a reason for it, for I know about the great spiritual hardship which can only be controlled through spiritual help, which consists precisely of My word being conveyed to people. I want to address everyone, but not everyone opens his ear and heart to hear Me Myself. And therefore I have to speak to them through mediators, I have to make use of you who have easier access to fellow human beings, and you now have to speak instead of Me wherever possible. And thereby you render Me a service which I alone can measure in its value. All people are My children whom I want to win before the end. But all people have free will and therefore I must also allow them the freedom of thought, will and action. And they often abuse this and I cannot stop them. Only through you can I send them admonitions and warnings, only through you can I draw their attention to their actual earthly task, only through you can I impart My teaching of love to them. And therefore I need you, and I bless every activity which applies to this vineyard work …. And you should not worry about your earthly and spiritual well-being, for like a good householder I will take care of My servants who serve Me voluntarily. I Myself will assign the work to you, I will guide you to the people you should work on in the vineyard, I will direct your thoughts correctly so that you speak where it is necessary and that you remain silent where your work would be useless …. You need only ever rely on My guidance as soon as you entrust yourselves to My guidance, as soon as you are willing to serve Me. You should not miss a single day when you can work for Me and My kingdom, for the time is approaching when you will have to make your decision, when you will all have to confess for or against Me. And then it will be difficult to work in the vineyard, then everyone will have to entrust himself to Me so that he will stand firm in the last battle of faith on this earth …. And then you shall have already scattered much seed in the hearts of your fellow human beings which will then also sprout and bear fruit when the adversity is great and they will be able to recognize the strength of a strong faith in yourselves. Work on the souls of your fellow human beings, and work on yourselves …. accumulate much strength which you will be able to receive abundantly through your service for Me …. Serve Me with all your strength and it will only be a blessing for you, and you will contribute towards the salvation of many souls which need help to be guided onto the right path. Serve Me with all love, and then you will also serve your neighbour and help him in spiritual adversity. For this is great and can only be reduced if you convey My word to your fellow human beings, which is blessed with My strength …. For then I Myself will be able to speak to them through you and many a heart will still open itself to My word and be saved from death …._>Amen

"Do not worry about what you shall say …."

B.D. 7555 from March 21st 1960, taken from Book No. 80

Do not worry about what you shall say …. The time will come when you will have to answer for your spiritual activity. But then remember My word that I will put the words into your mouth, that the spirit from Me will give you what you speak and how you act. For he will guide you, i.e. I Myself will always be with you when it is necessary to speak for Me and My name, when it is necessary to defend the work for My kingdom, which is extremely important in the last days before the end. Then you will speak freely and openly and hardly anyone will be able to refute you, for no one will be a match for your explanations. You will stand up for the truth which cannot be refuted to you, and it will be possible to also present My word to those who have not had the opportunity to hear it so far …. And depending on their will they will accept or reject it. A time will come when you will be forbidden vineyard work, when it will be difficult to do it because the open battle against everything spiritual will begin …. And then much work shall already have been done so that now the seed can take root and the little plant will spread, so that the individual’s power of resistance will be so strong that he will remain faithful to Me during this time of struggle. And everyone who is serious will experience My strengthening and need not fear that he will fail, that the enemies are stronger than he …. he will find the right support with Me, Whom he only needs to call upon in order to receive the necessary strength to fight for his faith. The time will only be short when My adversary will openly come forward to take action against Me Myself, for I will shorten the days for the sake of My chosen ones. They shall not have to fear becoming weak in the battle and therefore I will end it quickly. I will be with all who want to remain faithful to Me and I will provide them with unusual strength …. And when they have to answer, it will be I Myself Who speaks through them, and truly so that they will be unable to reply …. But the adversary will also fight with cunning and treachery, for he knows that the end is near and that his power will then be over …. Therefore he will rage beforehand and want to cause confusion in My camp, but he will run against solid walls which My angels form around all My faithful …. And then I Myself will come in the clouds and fetch My own to Me …. The day of judgment will dawn which will end all adversity of My own and usher in a new era …. And it will come as it is proclaimed through word and scripture …._>Amen

God's act of creation and goal ….

B.D. 7556 from March 22nd 1960, taken from Book No. 80

The act of creation was the result of My love …. both the creation of the spiritual beings in My image as well as all earthly-material creations after the apostasy. My love wanted to give itself, it wanted to find itself again in the beings made in My image, which essentially were miniatures of Me. I was impelled by My infinite love to place such beings next to Me in whom I could find Myself again and to whom I could give My unlimited love. The fact that these beings fell away from Me was known to Me from the start and I did not prevent them from doing so, because it was their free will and because only then was it possible for Me to have ‘children’ next to Me instead of ‘living creations’, which was the goal of My act of creation. It will certainly take a long time until the deification of My living creations has been achieved, yet time means nothing to Me, but the goal I set for Myself has also been the cause of the various earthly-material creations, for they are the path which the once fallen spiritual beings will have to travel in order to return to Me, from Whom they once came forth. And even if this process of deification requires an infinitely long time until the being has undertaken it of its own free will …. one day it will nevertheless be able to create and work next to Me and then be indescribably happy. Yet in the meantime it will have to pass through many seemingly endless phases in constriction and torment …. at first in solid matter and then in the plant- and animal world until it has reached the stage of a human being, where it enjoys a certain amount of freedom but not the kind of freedom which had been its original state.

However, it can attain this freedom as long as it lives as a human being on earth. Since the being emerged from My love, and thus its fundamental substance is love too, it need only allow itself to be illuminated by Me and thus direct its hitherto averted will back to Me again …. Then the being, which had become disfigured due to its wrong resolve, will change back to its fundamental nature of love again …. And then it will also deify itself in line with My eternal plan and I will have achieved My goal: My living creation will have voluntarily changed itself into My child and is incomparably happy …. But this re-transformation into love is always subject to free will. And in the stage of a human being this free will can also turn in the wrong direction again without being prevented by Me …. Hence such a process of re-transformation can also take an eternity, because free will is never interfered with and therefore the being determines the duration of its wretched state itself. Nevertheless, it is able to reach its goal in one developmental period and it will be supported in every way to reach its goal. For My love pursues the being because it is a living creation that had emerged from My love. Thus you humans can see what an important factor free will plays in your earthly life, which is not subject to compulsion, neither from My nor from My adversary’s side …. And thus My only endeavour is to teach you to recognise the significance of your free will so that you will then direct it appropriately. I can only ever influence you to direct your will correctly but not force you, just as My adversary is unable to do, but he can influence you just the same in order to gain your will for himself. However, you must make your own free decision and blessed are you if you take the right path, if you find your way to Me and strive for unity with Me again, from which you once voluntarily detached yourselves …. Blessed are you if you, in this earthly life as a human being, succeed in reaching the goal during one period of Salvation …. that you will become free from every form and thus be able to enter into eternity as free and fully enlightened beings of light when your existence on this earth has come to an end ….

Amen

Fight against selfish love ….

B.D. 7557 from March 23rd 1960, taken from Book No. 80

Much is demanded of you if you are still completely dominated by selfish love, for then it means a struggle for you to overcome it and change it into unselfish neighbourly love. But you must remember that you only take care of your body as long as you satisfy your selfish love and that you do not collect any spiritual treasures which will one day make up your wealth in the kingdom of the beyond. You must remember that your stay on this earth is not eternal but that you have to fulfil a task: to change your nature into love; for you enter earth as a human being with only a small degree of pure, selfless love, which you should now increase if you don’t first have to kindle love in yourselves …. But selfish love dominates you, and you should suppress it, which always means a fight against all desires which demand fulfilment for physical comfort. Your attention must be directed towards your fellow human being, and it must be the human being’s endeavour to carry out works of love if he wants to change himself, i.e. his nature, into love. He must learn to renounce for the sake of his neighbour, he must be willing to make sacrifices for the sake of his neighbour, he must be urged from within to do good to his fellow human being, and his self-love will become ever smaller the stronger the human being’s will. And that is why it is said that the “kingdom of heaven suffers violence, and only the one who needs violence seizes it for himself’.” Whose selfish love is still very strong will have to use great violence to reduce it, the charms of the world will constantly be placed before him, for God’s adversary will tempt him wherever he can, and it will be difficult to resist all those temptations, he will have to use violence …. but he will succeed as soon as his will strives to fulfil his earthly task: to change his nature. He will be supplied with strength because he wants to reach his aim …. And in order for him to strive towards this aim he will repeatedly be reminded of the commandments of love for God and his neighbour, and if he is of good will he will first only fulfil his duty, he will strive to fulfil God’s commandments …. until he is then driven from within to work of love and the fight against selfish love becomes ever less, for he will become victorious over himself if he is of good will. Yet most people are dominated by selfish love, they only think of themselves, love has grown cold in them and therefore they cannot become overcomers, they will only ever seek earthly advantages and not think of their life after death …. And their fate will be a bitter one, for they will enter the kingdom of the beyond poor and miserable, where it will also be difficult for them to ascend, because even then they will not want to give up their selfish love, because even then they will only think of their own fate and the fate of other souls will not affect them. It is particularly difficult for these souls to relinquish their selfish love, and they will have to remain in adversity and torment for a long time before they change and turn their gaze to the souls in the same predicament. For this reason anyone who still gives up his selfish love before he has to surrender his earthly life is to be called blessed on earth …. For once the soul has become acquainted with true love it will also be able to detach itself more easily from what it would otherwise not want to give away for its own sake. And then the danger will no longer be so great when it enters the kingdom of the beyond; then it will also be able to feel love for its neighbour and ascend more easily, one day it will also attain beatitude, because the more it practices love itself the more its love will increase. And it will have much opportunity to do so, for God helps every soul so that it can detach itself from darkness and reach the light …._>Amen

Spirit working ….

B.D. 7558 from March 25th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

I want to be able to work in you through My spirit …. I want your spiritual spark, which is My share, to seek contact with Me and that this spiritual spark now gains influence over you, that it determines your thinking, speaking and acting, that I Myself can therefore work in you because this spiritual spark is inseparably connected to Me. Hence you have God Himself in you …. and I will always be able to express Myself from within if you allow Me to do so yourselves through your will to be united with Me and your actions in accordance with this will. For if you seek the bond with Me then you will also irrevocably live according to My will …. you will live in love and thereby awaken the spiritual spark in you to life …. i.e. draw Me Myself to you through loving activity, Who is the eternal love. Thus the voice of My spirit in you, which you desire to hear, is only a sign of My presence in you, and I will always be able to be present to you if you live in love. And thus every working of the spirit always presupposes the human being’s love, otherwise he would not be united with Me and then would also not be able to hear My voice within himself …. thus My spirit cannot work in a person who is devoid of all love. The spirit in you, which is My share, stamps you into a divine creature as soon as you only allow it to work. Then you will enter into contact with Me and I will now address you through the voice of the spirit, I will order your thinking and guide it correctly, and I will determine your will and action …. but only ever after your consent, after you yourselves allow the working of the spirit in you through loving activity. And My spirit will guide you into truth …. I have given you this promise, for at the beginning of your embodiment as a human being you are without knowledge, your spiritual state is dark, you know nothing about Me and My plan of salvation from eternity …. But if I want to impart this knowledge to you I have to do it through My spirit …. The spirit can only speak to the spirit, or also: You can only be taught by Me Myself, and therefore My spirit must be able to take effect in you. But then He will impart knowledge to you which encompasses everything …. Then you will be introduced to truth, because the spirit from Me can only impart pure truth to you. And you should all try to achieve that My spirit can become effective in you, because only then can you be guided into realization, because only then will it become light and bright in you and you need no longer complain about spiritual darkness. Since you therefore carry a spark of My spirit of God within you, all truth is also within you, for the spirit from Me knows everything, it is a ray of light of love which can fill your heart and chase all darkness out of it. The spirit from Me will teach you, it will kindle a light in you, it will reveal truthful knowledge to you, for it is in constant contact with Me, its father-spirit from eternity. He is My share and therefore also knows everything you desire to know …. “He guides you into the truth ….” And you are awakened to life when you allow the spiritual spark in you to work, when you have prepared yourselves in such a way that I Myself can empty Myself in you …. And I will truly give you everything you desire …. Yet I cannot enter into contact with a person who does not consciously strive for it, who resists Me and lives without love, for I cannot approach him, Who I am love …. And this person will also remain without realization, no matter how sharp his intellect and how long he lives on earth …. He will remain dark in spirit, for the spirit from Me cannot enlighten him because it makes his activity impossible for him. My share, the spiritual spark, certainly also slumbers in him but it is buried and will not be awakened to life, and the human being has rejected a gift of grace from Me which truly could have created beatitudes for him if only he had used it during his earthly life. The bond between the spiritual spark and the eternal father-spirit has to be established by every person himself, but then he will be able to achieve the highest spiritual success, he will increase in light and strength, he will allow Me Myself to work in him through My spirit, and where I Myself can be there will be no more darkness for ever …._>Amen

Serious desire for truth ….

B.D. 7559 from March 26th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

The pure truth has to be desired in order to be received …. and desiring the truth means being willing to relinquish the existing knowledge, to completely empty oneself and now ask Me to impart the pure truth to the human being, which only I Myself can bestow upon him. For I Myself am the truth …. I am the way and the life …. I Myself alone can distribute the truth and thereby show you the path which leads to eternal life. But for the most part people are unable to detach themselves from the spiritual knowledge they possess …. Yet they should always bear in mind that there are many schools of thought, that different people’s spiritual knowledge also differs but that there is only one truth, that not everyone can claim to stand in the truth as long as their thinking still deviates from each other. And therefore they should make every effort to come into possession of the truth, they should not be satisfied with knowledge which was transmitted to them according to tradition, they should first try to fathom the origin of their knowledge and always approach Me Myself for enlightenment of their thinking so that they will find the pure truth …. They must desire the truth …. And they will be able to be convinced that they will also find it, for I Myself take care of those who desire the truth with all their heart …. For I am the eternal truth and I want My living creations to walk in truth, that they think correctly, that they form a truthful picture of Me Myself and My reign and activity …. I don’t want them to be ensnared by the error which is presented to people by My adversary so that it is impossible for them to recognize Me Myself correctly and then also to learn to love Me …. and because My living creations’ love for Me is the aim which people should achieve, I want them to recognize Me correctly, and therefore I will repeatedly convey the pure truth to people who desire it, I will no longer leave them in error and enlighten their thinking so that they will learn to distinguish truth from error and turn away from the latter. Truth will always make people happy, for truth will spread light in the heart …. Error, however, darkens the path people take, and this never leads upwards, to Me, because it is My adversary’s path into which he tries to push people who do not resist him. And every person should seriously ask himself how far he is satisfied with the knowledge he possesses …. he should seriously ask himself whether he desires the pure truth and what he has already done in order to attain this truth …. He need do nothing more than seriously ask Me to instruct him in the truth if his thinking is wrong …. But this will has to arise from the heart, he has to be deeply, holyly serious about moving in truth …. And most people lack this seriousness. They are content with the knowledge they have taken on and hold on to it, they don’t think about it, otherwise they would discover contradictions themselves and would have to pay attention. But the will of man cannot be forced …. This is why error is far more widespread in the world than truth, and this is why I again and again try to address people from above in order to convey the pure truth to them, which should encourage them to compare and take a stand on it themselves. And blessed is he who accepts the truth …. Blessed is he who seeks to free himself from previous knowledge if it does not agree with the knowledge conveyed from above …. One day the soul will be able to record as spiritual wealth the knowledge it accepted on earth and will also take with it into the kingdom of the beyond …. It will be able to register a considerable plus compared to the souls which could not free themselves from their wrong teachings on earth, for in the spiritual kingdom the soul will only be able to work with such goods which correspond to the truth. All other knowledge will be of no use to it, no matter how much knowledge it possessed on earth. If it was not the pure truth it will lose it like all earthly possessions and dwell poorly and ignorantly in the kingdom of the beyond, where it will not be allowed to engage in a blissful activity until it has also accepted the pure truth …. which will certainly be offered to it in the spiritual kingdom but which, just as on earth, requires its free will to accept. And this is why it is so necessary for the human being that his thinking still becomes clear on earth, that he learns to distinguish error from truth on earth, for only truth is the path which leads to eternal life, only through truth can the human being become blissfully happy and no longer lose eternal life …._>Amen

To the worldlings ….

B.D. 7560 from March 27th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

You must not give in to any deceptive hopes that you believe you still have much time left for your spiritual perfection. You should not hesitate one day longer to tackle your soul’s work if you are not already walking on the right path and striving spiritually. You should only ever try to imagine that you would suddenly be called away and then ask yourselves whether you would be able to stand before My eyes. And you should only ask yourselves how you stand by Jesus Christ …. All of you who have not yet found Him are in great danger that your soul will get lost, that it will enter the kingdom of the beyond in adversity and darkness because it has not yet found redemption. All of you who are not yet confessors of Jesus Christ are especially addressed by Me that you only have little time left and should use this time by seeking contact with Jesus Christ, the divine redeemer, so that you will also find contact with Me, Who accomplished the act of salvation in Him. You are still in the midst of the world, and the world rarely only allows spiritual thoughts to arise in you. But I appeal to you to seriously think about it, to imagine a near end and to think about your soul which is in great distress. You worldly people have little faith and yet you should think about the fact that you will not perish even if your body dies …. And then you should try to imagine your fate, which cannot be any different than your way of life has been. And if you don’t believe in the soul’s survival, then just once seriously wish that you may think correctly, that a small light will be given to you …. Ask Me for it if you still believe in a God and creator from eternity …. And truly, I will give you a light, for I don’t want you to get lost, but you must take the first step towards Me, Whom you will not be able to deny in your innermost being …. Don’t let the short time you still have pass by unused, ask yourselves whether you are walking correctly and make an effort to fulfil the will of the one Who gave you life …. Seek union with Me in Jesus Christ, and you have done everything to save your soul …. And therefore seek to gain knowledge of Jesus Christ, the divine redeemer, do not keep your ears closed when such is conveyed to you …. Believe when a near end is proclaimed to you …. listen to the proclaimers and ponder their words, for I Myself speak to you through them because I want to bring you salvation before the end …. And also consider the transience of the world and all earthly goods …. And I want to bless every good thought, I want to strengthen your will and help you find the right path and detach yourselves from everything that still holds you captive …. I will help you if only you remember your soul and want to protect it from the fate it is heading for if you do not change …. Believe that there is not much time left for you and use this time diligently for your salvation …._>Amen

Vineyard work suggestion ….

B.D. 7561 from March 28th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

You shall proclaim My word, and you shall inform every person of My unusual activity towards you, whom I lead into the path. For it is necessary that people learn of My love and grace which I bestow upon My living creations; they should know who they should turn to when they are approached by the great adversity which I constantly announce to you. And again and again you should tell them that My kingdom is not of this world, that it concerns the spiritual kingdom which you humans should strive for; you should tell them to remember their actual earthly task which consists of seeking My kingdom which is not of this world. It will always be your task to direct your fellow human beings’ thoughts towards this kingdom if you want to be of service to Me, for people only ever move in this world and only pay attention to what serves their body’s well-being; their striving is purely earthly and spiritual thoughts are far away from them …. But again and again you should point them to that kingdom which is not of this world. And therefore you should also inform them that the father’s voice sounds from that kingdom, Who wants to address all people and uses you to pass on His message. People shall know that their God and creator speaks to them from above. They will not want to believe it and yet this unusual event shall be mentioned wherever the opportunity presents itself. And again and again human hearts will open which only need a push to take the path which leads into the spiritual kingdom. Spread My word and I will ensure that it will be accepted and spread again …. For My ways are wonderful, you don’t know them, but I know where hungry souls wait for the nourishment which is My pure word for them …. I know where souls are waiting to be addressed by Me, and I arrange it so that the word you spread in My name will also reach them. You should just not be inactive, even though it seems to you as if all opportunities have been exhausted which enable you to spread My word. My word is blessed with My strength, My word is strength in itself, and where it can only touch a person’s heart the soul will also come to life, it will feel the strength and receive wholesome nourishment for itself from My word. I still want to address many people through My word, and I will let your thoughts take the path which leads to such human hearts which you can provide with spiritual nourishment, with the bread of life which the soul can feast on. But don’t become indifferent, for people are in need who have not yet found My kingdom, which is not of this world. Only My word shall sound to them from this kingdom and touch their hearts, then they will also approach the kingdom themselves …. And you should help them to hear this word, you should be My proclaimers who take their ministry seriously and again and again convey My word from above to them. You should see your task in the spreading of this word alone, and this requires constant vineyard work, which I admonish you to do again and again because it is very important. But you will also never be left without help, I Myself assign the work to you, you will be guided by Me, your thoughts and your will will be directed by Me so that you will always be successfully active for Me and My kingdom, which is not of this world. And if you are willing to work for Me you will also be able to carry out this work and never need to fear being unfit for it …. Just make your will your own and I will guide you to where your work is needed …. I Myself will assign the work to you and it will always be successful, because I bless every activity a helpful person wants to accomplish for Me and My kingdom, so that many more souls will find salvation, so that they, too, will strive for the kingdom which is not of this world …._>Amen

Total spiritual change ….

B.D. 7562 from March 29th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

A spiritual change for the better will no longer take place on this earth, and people who indulge in this hope are in erroneous thinking, and they will therefore be surprised when the course of world events will convince them that a spiritual change is by no means recognizable, that people always sink deeper into darkness the further time advances. People themselves are no longer changing to the extent that I could refrain from dissolving the creations …. They increasingly fall prey to My adversary, they fulfil his will and therefore become ever more ripe for the downfall which signifies the end of this earth for humanity. There are only ever a few who recognize the seriousness of the time, who make an effort to live the way of life according to My will, who believe in Me and therefore will find grace before My eyes …. And these also believe in an end because they can follow people’s spiritual low and recognize that the earth is ripe for destruction. But these few cannot cause Me to refrain from the final work of destruction, for I must also remember the still bound spiritual substances which shall continue their course of development in new creations …. I must also remember those people who fail so that they can be reintegrated into the process of ascent development, so that they are taken from My adversary’s power …. These people would irrevocably fall further and further into the abyss if I allowed the earth to continue and did not put an end to My adversary’s activity. This earth period has to come to an end and a new one has to begin again, otherwise divine order would never be established, but this is My eternal plan of salvation. Once every redemption period comes to an end, and this period has now also reached the time when order has to be established again so that the development of the spiritual will continue. This is incomprehensible to every person who does not strive spiritually, but everyone whose spirit is awakened and who looks around with open eyes must understand it. Unbelief and unkindness are rampant, people no longer expect to live on after death, they don’t believe in Jesus Christ and His act of salvation, they only live a worldly life and don’t think about the purpose and aim of their existence …. And only rarely can a person still be won over for Me and My kingdom …. And thus a spiritual low has set in which can no longer be remedied other than through a complete reorganisation, a ‘straightening’ and transposition of the spiritual into the form corresponding to its state of maturity …. And this is what the work of transformation on the old earth is supposed to achieve, that all forms are dissolved and the spiritual bound in them is incorporated into other forms, so that the upward development can continue. And this requires a total change, spiritually and earthly …. it requires the end of the old and the emergence of a new earth …. it necessitates the establishment of the order of eternity, which will always be carried out again from My side when the time has expired, when a redemption period has come to an end according to the destiny of eternity …._>Amen

Neighbourly love ….

B.D. 7563 from March 31th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

You will always benefit when you look after a neighbour in need …. because you will always be fulfilling My will which is expressed in My commandments of love for God and your neighbour. But you should practise love for your neighbour of your own free will, you should feel prompted from within, only then will you kindle the spark of love in you, and only then will your soul mature. Your every thought, word and action has to be based on love if it is to have a spiritual effect, or you will only ever accomplish earthly duties without the slightest gain for your soul ….

It is always just a matter of love …. of the inner urge to do good, to help where it is needed, to please and bring joy to where the opportunity presents itself …. it is a matter of the person’s inner nature which should become completely absorbed in its love for Me and the next person, which overcomes all selfish love and is completely imbued by love, so that I Myself can be present in him and thus work in him through My spirit. Then the human being cannot be anything but good and will always live in unity with Me, then the earthly world can no longer tempt him but in thought he will always be in the spiritual world since the spirit in him determines his every thought and intention.

But as long as a person’s thoughts are held captive by the world it will not be possible for him to develop love in himself, for then the world will still appeal to his selfish love and this will be satisfied first, which will always be at the expense of the next person. In that case he has to be noticeably confronted by his fellow human being’s suffering; he has to see a lot of misery in order to motivate himself to help and to enable the spark of love within him to ignite so that he feels the benefit of a good deed. Hence much tribulation has yet to be experienced on earth, because love has grown cold amongst people, because My messengers of love are hardly ever appreciated and thus the spiritual hardship, which can only be remedied by love, is also extensive.

People’s lack of love is spiritual hardship which always entails earthly hardship too, therefore the latter will continue to increase in the last days in order to still touch human hearts and awaken in them merciful neighbourly love. However, only a few people will escape this spiritual adversity, for selfishness is gaining the upper hand and that also means that worldly love will become ever more widespread, that people will become enslaved by matter and in their pursuit of it also prepare their later fate, that they will again become matter which they had already surmounted in the past.

And there is only one way out from this banishment, and this way out is and remains love …. Not even My love can release you from the commandment to practise love, for love is the first law, and without love no one can become blessed ….

Amen

Presentation of the lord's supper ….

B.D. 7564 from March 31th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

All of you who hear My word and take it into your hearts, who are now also active according to it, are moving in My grace. Then you will evaluate a gift of grace of immeasurable strength, you will be filled by My spirit which will now pour into you through My word. And it will be easy for you to believe because My word from above is proof of My love for you and My love is now also a guarantee for you that you receive the truth from Me. You receive great grace through My word and your soul derives great spiritual benefit from it, because you use everything imparted to you through My word to mature spiritually. If you now accept My word directly from Me, even if it is conveyed to you through My messengers, then you draw from the source …. You drink the water of life at the spring which I Myself have opened up for you. You let yourselves be fed and watered by Me Myself, you come to My table and take supper with Me …. you get the nourishment which your soul needs in order to mature on this earth …. And it is I Myself Who offers you the nourishment, because I know what you need for your soul’s salvation …. I know that your soul is weak and needs to be strengthened, I know that it is sick and in need of healing medicine, and I know that only the nourishment I Myself give you will let it become healthy and strong. And therefore I invite you again and again to come to My table and take supper with Me …. But you must come to Me yourselves …. you must take the path to the spring from which the living water flows; you must bow down and drink if your soul is to be nourished and refreshed for its further earthly progress. You must accept My word and not be satisfied that you are offered inferior nourishment elsewhere which is not beneficial for your soul …. You must ask Me for food and drink for your soul …. For only one can offer you the manna from the heavens, only one can convey His word to you from above …. and this one is the word Itself from eternity …. And when the word Itself bends down to address you, then open your ears and heart and listen to what I have to say to you …. When I Myself invite you to come to My table in order to let yourselves be satisfied by Me, then accept this invitation and be My guests who gratefully receive what the host offers them. And if you entrust yourselves to Me and let Me take care of you Myself, I will truly provide you with everything your soul and body need during your earthly existence. Yet My concern for your soul is paramount so that you will not come to harm and lose eternal life. And therefore I will always make My will known to you through My word so that you will comply with it and prepare your soul for life in the spiritual kingdom …. I will take care of your soul so that it does not need to live in want, but I will also give the body what it needs as long as the soul resides in it …. You shall be satisfied spiritually and earthly, you shall know that you can turn to Me at any time in spiritual and earthly adversity, that you will never ask in vain …. But you should come to Me yourselves, you should seek out the source which is opened up to you by My love …. You should let yourselves be addressed by Me and gratefully accept all My gifts of love from My hand …. And then you shall evaluate the blessings which I abundantly bestow upon you, so that you may mature in your soul, so that you may acquire the kingdom of heaven and be blessed …._>Amen

God's plan of salvation and end ….

B.D. 7565 from April 2nd 1960, taken from Book No. 80

My eternal plan will be carried out, for My love and wisdom were decisive for this plan and My might brings about everything I want. Therefore neither people’s will nor My adversary’s actions can prevent Me from doing so, and it would be easy for Me to initiate you humans to such an extent that you would also know the day and hour when I would carry out the plan. But My love and wisdom prevents this again, because it would not benefit My living creations if they would then fulfil their earthly task under a certain compulsion of will, which would mean knowing the day and hour of the end of this earth. But My love also wants to warn and admonish you humans again, My love only wants you to prepare yourselves and not to fear the end …. And therefore I repeatedly announce to you through seers and prophets that the end is imminent …. as it has happened since the beginning of this earth period and will happen until the end occurs. I will not leave you humans without knowledge about it, yet this knowledge will never be proven to you due to your freedom of will. You only ever have to believe it and live your life in accordance with this belief …. And then My plan of salvation will unfold such that you will not suffer any harm. But it will be carried out according to My will, for I truly know what serves you, My living creations, best, irrespective of whether you already live on this earth as a human being or still live in the bound state of the works of creation …. I know when the time has come for you to change your state, when all spiritual substances have to leave the form which keeps them bound, I know when lawful order has to be established again and what is helpful for the spiritual substances’ ascent development …. And because My love and wisdom are decisive I will also pause the time I have set for Myself from eternity for My work of salvation …. And thus, when I announce the time to you humans as ‘imminent’, when I admonish you again and again to think of your end, this is also determined by My love, which truly wants to prepare a blissful fate for you and again and again shows you the path you should take in order to become blessed …. this is why I repeatedly speak to you humans from above, for you cannot receive information about what is to come in any other way, because no-one but Me can know this and because I want you to take notice of it, even if you only have to believe it. But you are blessed if you believe My word from above, for no-one but Me can instruct you in accordance with the truth, no-one can impart this knowledge to you if I Myself do not convey it to you through My spirit. Therefore it also requires firm faith to accept My word as truth, faith which was gained through love. And because there is so little love amongst humanity, the belief in an end is also rarely to be found, and people irresponsibly go their earthly way and don’t use the time they still have until the end, which is truly only short. And if you knew the day and hour you would be frightened …. But this knowledge remains hidden from you, for it would be of no use to you for your perfection. But it will come, suddenly and unexpectedly …. And therefore My concern is always for you, and I address you again and again. The near end is the reason for My address, because I still want to win souls which listen to Me and believe My word, for these will prepare themselves, they will make an effort to live according to My will, and their good will will always receive strengthening from My side. Again and again they will desire to hear Me and truly draw strength from My word because I have blessed My word with My strength …._>Amen

God-turned-will secures perfection ….

B.D. 7566 from April 3rd 1960, taken from Book No. 80

And I will put My will into your heart if you strive to fulfil My will. Then you need only let your inner urge and will determine you and it will be right how you think, speak and act. My love is with everyone who strives to come close to Me, and guide him on the right path …. My care applies to him at every hour, and thus every day can be lived safely, it will always contribute towards the soul’s perfection, and earthly life will not have been lived in vain, for the will which applies to Me is a guarantee that I will take care of the human being and lead him to perfection. You should all know that you need not do without My care, you should know that nobody can get lost who believes in Me in earthly life and wants Me to accept him, that he is united with Me. Every thought that applies to Me is proof of his faith in Me and a desire of his soul for its creator and father from eternity. Every thought which departs from the earthly world, which is directed into My kingdom, also proves the soul’s will which strives towards its original state again because it is aware of its origin and wants to return to it again. And I know every thought and truly promote this will like a loving father …. I let the soul feel My love in order to increase its desire for Me and thereby also strengthen My strength of love. I take care of every person who has once turned his will towards Me, who has recognized Me as a loving God and father from eternity …. who believes in Me …. For this person will also feel love for Me, even if this initially takes a back seat to the deepest humility, because the human being recognizes his own inadequacy and unworthiness …. And humility is the human being’s dearest confession to Me, for it is the opposite of the original sin, of the arrogance which once caused the being to fall. The human being recognizes Me as the highest and most perfect being, Whom he does not feel worthy to love, and therefore all My love belongs to him …. Therefore only ever direct your thoughts into the spiritual kingdom, let them take the path to Me and I will know that your will is meant for Me …. And then I will be able to take hold of you, and I will truly no longer leave you out. It only concerns your will in this earthly existence, for at the beginning of your embodiment as a human being this will is still in bondage to the one who caused your fall into the abyss. And you shall change your will, away from him and towards Me …. Therefore you can also believe that I have already seized you if you want Me to look after you, that you will find grace with Me if you consciously turn your will towards Me, if you want to be and remain My own …. Then your fate will truly be sealed, I will no longer let you fall back, I will draw you to Myself and will not rest until you have found your way home to your father’s house, until you have found union with Me, your God and father of eternity, Whose love applies to you and will apply to you because you are His children, whom He has now won for eternity …._>Amen

Return path of the spiritual to God ….

B.D. 7567 from April 4th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

All fallen spirits have started the return path to Me, which is bound in the works of creation on this earth. As soon as it is embodied in hard matter this return path begins, which takes an infinitely long time before it is completed. But the bound spiritual is withdrawn from My adversary’s influence, he no longer has any power over this spiritual, he can no longer press it or determine its activity according to his will, which would be contrary to Me, but this bound spiritual moves in the law of compulsion, it carries out its purpose according to My will and thereby, after an infinitely long time, reaches a state which allows the embodiment as a human being, so that it shall then pass the last short test of earthly life in order to finally become free from the form. Everything you humans see around you in creation is therefore spiritual striving towards Me, it has ascended from the deepest depth, and even the spiritual still bound in hard matter is at the beginning of its development …. it is spiritual substance wrested from My adversary which will one day also reach Me in the father’s house, thus it will no longer languish hopelessly in the deepest abyss. For there are still many once-fallen spirits which have not yet taken this path of return, for the beings which emerged from My strength and Lucifer’s will were innumerable, and eternities will pass until all fallen beings are completely redeemed, until all once-fallen beings will be spiritualized and able to work again in light and strength at My side in unlimited bliss. However, the stage as a human being is decisive for the duration of the return, for in this stage My adversary has influence over the spiritual again, which I cannot deny him either, because the spiritual once followed him in free will and he therefore asserts his right of ownership …. and during earthly life this right will therefore not be disputed. During this time he fights just as I do for the spiritual substance in order to win it back again, which has already moved considerably closer to Me through the path through creation, where it has already reduced its former resistance and now only has to make the final decision of will in earthly life as a human being …. where the human being can once again use free will, which he is now to direct correctly: To Me, from Whom he once turned away of his own accord. If you humans know about the infinitely long path of your preliminary development then it should not be difficult for you to make the right decision; but this course of development cannot be proven to you, and therefore you also lack the right faith in it, and you are in great danger of using your will wrongly again and surrendering to your adversary’s influence …. which can mean a renewed fall into the abyss again if you don’t profess Me after all before your physical death and escape his control. The path to the father’s house is no longer long if you are allowed to start earthly life as a human being, and it will also be clearly shown to you, so that it truly should not be difficult for you to reach your aim …. But no coercion whatsoever may be applied to your will, neither from My adversary’s nor from My side, and therefore your success is doubtful, and it requires your own will that you want to take the right path, and this will will truly receive support. But you should always remember your long time of pre-development, you should try to believe the knowledge you receive about it, and you should now lead your way of life accordingly …. For then you will bring an infinitely long time of development to a conclusion, you will return as children of your father, you will be able to create and work next to Me again in former perfection as you possessed it as original spirit, you will belong to those who have completely detached themselves from their former lord and now remain with Me for eternity …. you will have returned to the father as His children whom He will now also eternally no longer lose, for they have become perfect as the father in heaven is perfect …._>Amen

The knowledge of redemptive work does not pass away ….

B.D. 7568 from April 5th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

My work of redemption applied to all times, to the past, the present and the future …. All people will one day come into the blessing of My act of salvation, no matter in which epoch they walk across the earth as a human being …. And the knowledge will always be carried from one redemption period into the next, for My spirit will always instruct people about it and proclaim to them the earthly life of the man Jesus, in Whom I embodied Myself in order to redeem humanity’s guilt of sin. The fact that you now live in this period on earth in which I Myself descended to earth is a very special grace, for it should be easier for you humans to believe in Me, you should be able to believe the existence of the man Jesus with conviction, for the knowledge about Him has nevertheless been preserved from generation to generation, even if it is difficult to provide evidence for it in the last days …. Soon after Jesus’ death on the cross people in this redemption period were able to enter the kingdom of light as completely redeemed, which was not possible before the death on the cross …. They only needed to believe in Him with conviction, and this faith could also be easily won through love …. Yet in the later earth periods it will be more difficult for people to believe in Jesus Christ and His act of salvation …. And yet, it will also be possible again to open up living knowledge about the divine redeemer for them, because again and again My spirit will work in people filled with love, because again and again at the beginning of a redemption epoch people will be filled with love and then they will receive truly living knowledge and also pass it on to their descendants. Yet the closer it gets to the end of such an era again, the weaker the faith will become, and My spirit’s working will also be able to take place less and less frequently …. But the knowledge of Jesus Christ, in Whom I Myself accomplished the act of salvation on the cross, will never pass away again …. For again and again people will be ‘redeemed’ and they will ensure that the teachings are passed on because they receive them directly from Me and are also convinced and because this is the sign of redemption through Jesus Christ when He Himself can now express Himself in the human being through the spirit …. The knowledge of the divine redeemer will never ever be lost, and therefore the work of return will always and at all times continue, which is only ever possible when people have found redemption through Jesus Christ, when they acknowledge Me Myself in Jesus Christ and have thus also found their way back to Me, from Whom they had been separated for eternal times. For this reason the working of the spirit must also be proclaimed to people in the last days before the end, for faith in Jesus Christ and His act of salvation is also lacking during this time and it must be possible to convey truthful knowledge to people, which is only possible through the working of the spirit. And again, the working of the spirit is proof that Jesus Christ brought salvation to the human being …. that I Myself took care of people who, due to their guilt of sin, could not have taken the path back to the father …. For the working of My spirit only became possible after My crucifixion, and a person has to allow himself to be redeemed first, i.e. he has to be willing to accept the blessings of My act of salvation. Only then will it be possible for My spirit to express itself in him, and only then can he be introduced to truthful knowledge about the mission of the man Jesus, about His act of love and mercy which He accomplished for sinful humanity because He sheltered Me in Himself …. because He was only the shell of Me …. And this spirit will work as long as there is still a human being on earth who waits for redemption …. And again and again it will proclaim and initiate people into My plan of salvation, again and again it will mention the divine redeemer Jesus Christ, for I died on the cross for all people, for people of the past, the present and the future …. because I want to redeem all people from their guilt of sin …._>Amen

Self-awareness of the original spirit ….

B.D. 7569 from April 5th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

Every original spirit regains its self-awareness when it lives as a human being on earth and recognises itself as a human being. Then all the small particles of soul, which were once dissolved for the purpose of return through creation, are gathered in the spirit again, and then the being will be able to acquire the degree of maturity which it originally possessed as a created spirit, which it had renounced and now has to regain in order to enter the spiritual kingdom as a spirit of light. And thus every human being is an embodied original spirit, a once fallen being, My eternal love’s product of creation, which had merely left Me of its own free will and therefore also has to return to Me again of its own choice.

But the human being does not know what he was, what he is and what he should become again …. He first needs a certain level of maturity before he can receive and understand this knowledge …. He certainly recognises himself as a human being soon enough but not as a spiritual being that is to fulfil its purpose, and since he only recognises himself as a human being living on earth, his thoughts are more directed towards the world. And this usually prevents spiritual awareness which he will only experience when he turns away from the world towards the spiritual kingdom. Then it is possible to inform him of his real purpose, and then he will be able to accept and adjust to it voluntarily, which will certainly result in his full spiritual maturity. However, once he has accepted it he will also be happy at the thought and the certainty of belonging to the original spirits which I externalised as living creations and which return to Me as children, and as human beings are therefore approaching their perfection.

And only the human will needs to be good, because then it will focus on Me of its own accord. The human being asks for his God and Creator and this resolve is already the right decision, it will have passed the test of will which confronts the original spirit as human being on earth. Life on this earth does not last long but it can fully suffice for a person to spiritualise himself so completely that he acquires the degree which results in the childship to God, i.e. which returns the original spirit into a state of perfection again. On account of his resolve he will have achieved the highest degree himself and can then stay in closest proximity to Me where the direct emanation of My love is assured to him …. even though every original spirit will be able to ascend ever higher once he is allowed to enter the kingdom of light, provided the right decision of will was made on earth. And every original spirit is ecstatically happy when he becomes aware of the infinitely long path he had travelled in order to achieve the greatest abundance of light, in order to be immensely blissful …. And he will sing My praises and give thanks and glorify Me eternally, he will be and remain My child which will never leave Me again, which will create and shape in accordance with My will for its own happiness ….

Amen

Shackles of the soul …. freedom ….

B.D. 7570 from April 6th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

You will remain in your deformation until your soul has proven itself, for even if the soul enters the kingdom of the beyond immaturely it will not feel free but still feel burdened by an earthly heaviness, even though it has discarded the earthly body. It still feels bound and is powerless to free itself from its bondage until it calls upon Jesus Christ and finds redemption. But if it can already cast off its bondage on earth, that it has found forgiveness through Jesus Christ, then it will freely emerge from its body at the death of its body and also enter the kingdom of light completely free. So it is not only the body that is a bondage for the soul, but its whole state determines whether it enters the kingdom of the beyond free or bound. And there are souls which are not aware of their bodily death, which still feel the same way about themselves and move in community with like-minded souls and also believe them to still be alive on earth. But this state is a state of agony for the souls, for they feel their powerlessness, they lack vitality and are therefore unhappy not to be able to do what they want and through which they believe they can improve their situation. If, however, they would compassionately think of other souls in this unhappy state and try to help them, their condition would soon noticeably improve …. But they lack love otherwise they would not be in this powerless state and would also already possess some realization. And therefore death is not the liberation from form for all souls, and it can also happen that the soul completely sinks back into the abyss and is banished again into hard matter, thus it has to go through the earthly deformations again in order to be able to live on earth as a human being once more. But people should strive to completely liberate themselves from the form through a correct way of life, so that death need not frighten them, so that the soul leaves the body in all freedom and this change only brings it a state of happiness. But this always requires redemption through Jesus Christ, the human being must always have found forgiveness of sin, that his guilt is redeemed when he enters the spiritual kingdom. For the guilt of sin is a burden which the soul feels heavily. And it will not have the feeling of freedom until it has cried out to Jesus Christ for forgiveness of its guilt. Only then is it ‘redeemed’, free from every bondage and can now enjoy this freedom in the kingdom of light. Only then are they able to look with spiritual eyes and also recognize the other souls, whereas before in the darkness or twilight they can rarely only perceive the other souls correctly, even if they are among like-minded souls. They don’t recognize each other but they know it when they are together with them and also exchange information, but everything happens in a state of complete confusion, they cannot think clearly, and only occasionally do light moments come to them when spiritual beings of light want to help them. And if they make use of this help offered to them then their situation can also improve and they can find the path to Jesus Christ …. Yet their will is not forcibly influenced, which is why long periods of time can pass until such a soul finds redemption. And you humans on earth should try to imagine their fate, you should strive to escape such a fate yourselves by consciously fulfilling your earthly task, and you should also send helpful thoughts of love to those souls so that they can draw strength from it and change their will if you think of them intercessively. For the soul can only be happy when it is free from every form, and it can achieve this in earthly life if it lives according to God’s will, if it acknowledges Jesus Christ as the son of God and redeemer of the world and appeals to Him for forgiveness of its guilt …. Then even bodily death will only be a redemption from every form for it …._>Amen

Development of the soul …. Original spirit ….

B.D. 7571 from April 7th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

Spiritual substance matures during every developmental period, and one period can in fact suffice for the spiritual substance to progress through the creations to the point that it is able to embody itself as a human being and successfully pass its last test of will …. But several such periods may be needed for this spiritualization of hardened soul-substances if resistance is so strong that its higher development is too slow and the existence as a human being carries an added risk of the soul descending into the abyss again. For free will, which is tested during the stage as a human being, is decisive.

But prior to this, free will is constrained …. Although the hardened spiritual substance is no longer subject to God’s adversary’s will due to this process of development through the creations of earth …. the individual substances are nevertheless unable to use free will, instead they are controlled by God’s will, that is, their process of development takes place in a state of compulsion, they are subject to God’s will, Who assigns a task to all spiritual substances within the works of creation. By accomplishing this task within the law of compulsion they gradually progress, i.e. their resistance lessens; they carry out a helpful function and are able to slowly reach the state when their free will can be returned to them. And this process of development requires constant changes of the external shape …. it is a slow ascent, it is an integration with the laws of nature and therefore a submission to God’s will, if only due to a certain amount of coercion which, however, only helps to relieve the being and one day is meant to provide it with the freedom to think, want and act using its own will again.

And this process through the works of creation cannot be avoided if the spiritual being is to return to God again, from Whom it had distanced itself to such an infinite extent as a result of its apostasy that it would never be able to overcome this distance of its own strength, and would never be released by God’s adversary to return either if God did not remove the spiritual substance from him for the very purpose of banishing it into matter, into the creations on this earth. God’s adversary is entitled to the fallen spirits because they had voluntarily followed him into the abyss …. But God has the same right because the beings emerged from His strength. Hence God is justified in removing them from the adversary’s control, but in return the latter was given the right to influence the soul again when it lives on earth in the stage as a human being. And to this end the spiritual substance must have attained a degree of maturity again when it is able to use its will in order to freely decide which lord to choose.

But God cannot place the spiritual substance into this state instantly, it has to cover the process of ascent in the same progressive stages as it had descended, it has to relinquish its resistance slowly, as it cannot forcibly be broken. And this requires innumerable changes of form, through the world of rocks, plants and animals to the human being …. Every change of external shape also lessens its resistance, for the being has been of service in a state of compulsion by which it gains increasingly lighter forms …. But the sin of apostasy from God is so vast that the distance from Him is therefore vast as well, which means that untold changes of shapes are needed to reduce this distance in order to come closer to God again, when only the last free decision of will is required for the last form to fall off …. for the being to return to the Father again from Whom it had originated ….

And this whole process of development within the creations of earth is a continuous battle …. The spiritual substance tries to burst the external shape because it experiences it as a constraint, but each time it also experiences the rupture of the form as a relief irrespective of its level of maturity …. And this is why the struggle, which you humans are able to observe in the animal kingdom, only seems cruel in your eyes, whereas time and again every animal experiences the change of its external shape as a relief. For this reason God permits or even wants the weaker to succumb to the stronger, the stronger to terminate the life of the weaker and, in a manner of speaking, is thereby even able to serve the spiritual substance to continue its development. Therefore, as long as the being is subject to the law of compulsion everything is determined by God, its end as well as its new formation …. However, as soon as the being has reached the stage of a human being and has received its free will again, God withdraws His will …. And then the human being is given laws which he has to observe if his earthly life is to be successful …. On the one hand he is tied to the laws of nature, and on the other hand he is informed of God’s will, to which he has to submit if his development is to progress and reach a conclusion, for the goal is to become free of every external shape and to enter the kingdom of light as a free spirit …. to return to the Father’s house, to God, from whence the being once originated ….

Amen

Refuge to Jesus ….

B.D. 7572 from April 10th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

Carry all your worries to Jesus, Who has understanding for everything because He walked the earth as a human being …. And He will give you comfort, He will advise and help you, just as He as a human being helped His fellow human beings who came to Him in faithful trust and desired His help. For there is nothing that is impossible for Him, there is no worry that He cannot resolve …. There is no disaster which He cannot avert from you if only you trust in Him. For Jesus is God, He is your father from eternity, Who walked across earth in the shell of the man Jesus and to Whom all power belongs, Who works in love and wisdom on earth as well as in the spiritual kingdom …. And when you call upon Jesus you call upon God, the creator and sustainer from eternity, you call upon Him Whom you once did not want to acknowledge and through this heartfelt call return to Him from Whom you once voluntarily separated. Go to Jesus with all your worries and you are already on the way back to God …. He accomplished the work of redemption on this earth in order to redeem your great guilt of sin of the former apostasy from you. And He accomplished this work in the man Jesus, He chose His physical shell as His abode because a human being had to suffer and die on the cross so that humanity could take notice of this greatest work of mercy ever accomplished on earth. And in this human being Jesus God Himself walked the earth, for God, as the eternal love, filled Jesus fully and completely …. Love walked the dreadful path of suffering which ended with death on the cross. And with this death on the cross Jesus bought the right to bestow His acquired blessings upon people so that they became free from their lord, who held them captive in bondage until a saviour came to redeem the captives. He paid the debt to God’s adversary with His blood and people could now become free from Him who acknowledge Jesus’ act of salvation and want to partake of the grace. Then you will also acknowledge God Himself in the divine redeemer Jesus Christ, and this acknowledgement has to precede it, because then you will distance yourselves from the former sin of apostasy from God, because your will has now returned to God again and you will now accept His love and mercy again, which you once rejected and thereby fell into the abyss. You should not try to deal with any worries yourselves, you should always go to Jesus, you should carry all concerns to Him, because then you will unite with the father Who took abode in Jesus in order to atone for your guilt …. and Whom you thus acknowledge through your call, which is the purpose and aim of your earthly life: to accomplish the return to God from Whom you once voluntarily separated. Never walk your earthly path alone, always seek contact with Jesus, choose Him as your companion, as your guide, as your advisor and protector …. Stay in contact with Him in every earthly and spiritual adversity, and then you will truly be guided correctly, you will enjoy His protection, you will be relieved of your worries, for Jesus lived on earth as a human being and truly knows all the hardship a human being has to endure on earth. But He is also always ready to help because love fills Him, because He Himself is eternal love, because He and the father are one and His infinite love is always meant for you, His living creations. For you came forth from His love, and you shall also return to Him again …. And therefore He will pursue you with His love, He will do everything for you what you faithfully ask Him for in order to win you back again for eternity …._>Amen

Bond with God ….

B.D. 7573 from April 11th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

And during hours of psychological adversity the bond with the spiritual kingdom should be sought, your thoughts should turn away from earthly matters and seek refuge in the spirit; the human being should always bear in mind that he does not live for this world and that all earthly worries will fade away if they are compared to the fate of the soul, which requires far greater care. And you are all in a state of psychological adversity when you are influenced by God’s opponent, who makes every effort to disturb your inner calm, who intends to cause discord, who wants to stop you from making contact with God, who creates a restless existence for you by trying to deprive you of your inner peace, who keeps you tied to the world …. He wants to prevent you from establishing the bond with the spiritual kingdom, and precisely because of this you should sincerely entrust yourselves to all beings of light, you should appeal to the heavenly Father for His protection and then hand yourselves over to the guidance of all benevolent beings, which will certainly protect you from the adversary’s influence. You are quite often subject to psychological adversity, for all conflicts in life are suited to disturb your inner composure, and then the soul will be put under pressure by the enemy ….

However, you can confront him by instantly placing yourselves at the side of your God and Father and appealing to Him for His protection against all threats by hostile forces. He has promised you this protection if you choose Him as your guide and companion on the path and trustingly hand yourselves over to Him. Only the bond with Him as well as with all virtuous forces of the spiritual kingdom protects you and provides you with the strength which can resolve your psychological problems. And as soon as you succeed in forming an ever stronger bond, your earthly life will become increasingly more peaceful, for then you will also turn to Him with even the slightest problem and He will always be willing to help. However, as soon as you loosen the bond, the psychological adversities will increase even more, for God’s opponent avails himself of every weakness in order to apply his influence. But the beings of light merely wait for you to show the right attitude towards them, for you to appeal for help from God, then they will be allowed to help you and are always ready to protect you from the enemy. You just should not place your trust in yourselves and your strength alone …. You are incapable of dealing with the cunning and trickery the enemy of your souls is using, but in unison with the enlightened spiritual beings you are strong and able to offer him resistance. And you are surrounded by many beings of light, they merely wait for your call, because they may only intervene if your will deliberately turns to the spiritual kingdom from which you expect help. And this help is assured to you, for the heavenly Father does not leave His children in the adversity of soul, as soon as the child’s thoughts merely turn to the Father and it confides its distress to Him. Then he will instruct all his messengers of light and love, and they will act according to His will ….

Amen

Time of the faith battle ….

B.D. 7574 from April 12th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

You are still allowed to carry out vineyard work unhindered but the time will come when you who want to serve Me will be persecuted, when they will try to prevent your work, when they will be hostile towards everything that is considered work for Me and My kingdom. And then you will have to assert yourselves insofar as that you courageously confess Me and My name before the world. Then you shall indeed be as gentle as the deaf and as clever as serpents, you shall be cautious but nevertheless proclaim My teaching and again and again make My will known to people, about which I instruct you humans through My word …. You should not fear people who cannot harm your soul, and you should exercise your office into which I have appointed you. And this includes the spreading of My word, which will be important and necessary until the last day, because people can still be saved from ruin. And therefore I also keep urgently admonishing you to do as much vineyard work as possible before this time comes …. You should already cultivate the fields beforehand and provide them abundantly with seed so that the seed has already sprouted and can now also bear its fruit. For the battle against faith is coming, the battle against everything spiritual, the battle against everyone who still believes in Me in Jesus Christ …. For they want to eradicate this faith. This is the last battle, the last work of My adversary who still believes that he will be able to overthrow Me before his time is up …. who will then exceed the limits of his authority when he will take action against Me Myself, when he will try to deprive people of the knowledge about their God and creator and thus also make your free decision impossible. Then the time will come when he will be banished again, when he will be put in chains and completely deprived of his power for a long time. And you, My faithful, you should know this when the battle against faith will begin, and you should not fear people who can indeed kill your body but not your soul …. And you should know that I will then fight by your side, that I will be your commander and that the battle will always be victorious for you. For the battle of faith will not last long because I shorten the days for the sake of My own so that they will not fall prey to the adversary. You, who want to serve Me, you will build a wall around yourselves through strong faith, which I will strengthen again and again anew, for I Myself will be with My own in spirit and sometimes also visibly when the adversity requires it. And you will be exceptionally strengthened so that you can persevere until the end. For I will not leave My own in adversity, I will obviously support them and make them capable of resistance so that they will loudly confess before the world to whom they belong and through their courage of confession also win souls from the enemy camp …. For I wrestle for every single soul so that it will still find Me before the end and be eternally saved. The time until the end is still short and yet much work can still be done in My vineyard before you humans enter the last phase which the battle of faith means for you …. Then you can expect My coming every day, you can hope that I will come soon and I will not disappoint you …. I will fetch you away from the old earth when the day of judgment has come …._>Amen

God's love expressed in the work of redemption ….

B.D. 7575 from April 12th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

You are all touched by My love which has never left you and which will follow you even if you reject it …. which will apply to you for all eternity and therefore will not rest until you have become Mine again. And I gave you all the evidence of My great love and mercy when I suffered and died for you on the cross …. For this greatest work of love brought the lost back to Me, although it is up to My living creation’s own will whether it wants to return to Me. But one day every being will have the desire to return to Me, one day I will also possess the love of My living creations, and the creature will be blissfully happy like Me that it has found the father, as I have found My child …. But the act of salvation was necessary for this, My love had to enter into supreme action, love had to suffer unspeakably because only through this could the great guilt be redeemed which separated you, My living creations, from Me, your creator and father. The great debt had to be paid, and My love did do that. It suffered for you, and it died on the cross for you. And you humans should take part in this work of mercy, and therefore a human being accomplished it on earth, in Whom I Myself took abode. And this human being was Jesus, My only begotten son, Whom I sent down from above to earth so that He should save people from their adversity …. He had emerged from My creative power and His love for Me was immeasurable …. the love for His fallen brothers likewise and this impelled Him to the work of mercy, because He knew the hardship of His fellow human beings, because He knew that they could not become blissfully happy as long as they were burdened by the original sin which kept the path into the kingdom of light closed to them. People’s guilt was enormous and I had to receive satisfaction for it for the sake of justice …. The man Jesus offered to do so out of immense love and I accepted the offer because I did not want to and could not resist love, for what love does is always right before Me and My eyes. The man Jesus walked the earth and His life was love which He constantly increased, which completely filled Him and which therefore completely deified the man Jesus, for love is God …. You humans will never be able to unveil this secret and yet it can only be made understandable to you in this way, that I am eternal love and completely sheltered Myself in the human being Jesus …. Only the outer shell was still human, but His whole being was God, for it was love and love is God. Love moved the man Jesus to suffer and die on the cross in order to redeem people. Only love could take on such a degree of suffering as Jesus endured, because love is strength and enabled the man Jesus to endure until the end without succumbing beforehand. And Jesus knew about this measure of suffering long before, and therefore He also travelled an extremely painful earthly path, always aware of the time that lay ahead of Him. He often feared to fail and not to be able to accomplish the work of salvation, yet love always gave Him new strength again …. For My love was meant for all My creations which had fallen away from Me, and this love sacrificed Itself for all My creatures. You humans will never be able to completely fathom the mystery of My human manifestation until your nature has completely changed again into love, as you were in the beginning. But I try to make it understandable to you so that you will learn to believe that He and I were one, that you call upon Me when you call upon Jesus Christ …. For it is about the recognition of Me, Whom you once did not want to recognize because I was not visible to you …. Now you shall recognize and acknowledge Me in the visible saviour Jesus Christ, and only then will you return to Me again, from Whom you originated. And therefore My love pursues you until this return …. I will not let go of you and will not rest until you acknowledge Me and return My love …. My love will touch you again and again, it will shine upon you again and again until you open yourselves to My radiance and then find your way home again into the father’s house and be eternally blissful …._>Amen

Power redirection process …. childhood of God ….

B.D. 7576 from April 14th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

The spiritual substance within you, your soul, is indestructible, for it is the spirit of My spirit, it is strength which came forth from Me, it can never ever perish again because its original substance is the same as I, Who am from eternity to eternity …. only with the difference that you had a beginning, whereas I am from eternity. The strength radiated by Me was love …. Love is therefore your substance, and the strength of love once emanated by Me cannot pass away but always returns to its starting point. Thus all beings, all original souls, which are far away from Me, must also return to Me again, because the fundamental law from eternity is that the emanated strength flows back again to the source of strength …. So the emanation of My power is like the creation …. What I wanted, I brought forth from Myself, and it came into being …. And it can no longer pass away because My strength is imperishable. Thus, as it were, only a process of redirecting strength takes place which gives Me bliss, because strength always has to become effective and this effectiveness of strength is the cause of countless creations, partly of a spiritual, partly of an earthly material nature. All creations inspire Me, irrespective of their stage, for everything contains My strength, My will gave rise to everything, and everything demonstrates My infinite love which seeks vessels to receive My strength. Countless creations, however, change constantly, the spiritual strength contained therein certainly escapes with every transformation and looks for a new vessel according to My will …. yet the beings which once came forth from Me remain eternally what they were once they have gone through the process of transformation through the creations and have become the original being again which they were in the beginning. But then they will eternally exist as My images, as perfect beings like Myself, which now have a sphere of activity themselves because they are carriers of My everlastingly radiating strength of love and now also conduct the process of redirecting strength themselves, which continues to make them happy. As ‘beings’ the spiritual beings now also possess self-awareness again, for I once let self-aware beings emerge from Me who recognized Me as God and creator and who finally also recognize Me as father once they have completed the infinitely long process of change. And because they now recognize themselves as eternally imperishable beings they are also blissful, for they can now also utilize strength, light and freedom according to their own will and feel the same bliss which moved Me to create all beings and all things in infinity …. They can, like gods, work and create, for they have become perfect as their father in heaven is perfect …. (14.4.1960) And I will reveal all secrets to you when you have reached this perfect state of maturity, and you will have insight into My reign and activity, My nature will become ever more understandable to you, you will revel in bliss, for you will realize that the father’s love knows no bounds, that you yourselves will constantly strive towards Him, that He gives Himself to you and fulfils everything for you …. And yet, you will never be able to fathom My nature, for this, too, is part of beatitude, that you will constantly find fulfilment of your longing and yet your longing will not come to an end, just as the happiness through Me cannot come to an end either. And this state will last forever, an eternal longing for My love and a constant fulfilment, for there is no limit to perfection, and ever new beatitudes will open up to you because I want to make you eternally happy. And My constant nearness is the highest degree of your bliss, for My children receive the strength directly from Me which they then pass on again for their own happiness. And if you humans believe that your self will pass away then you are still in profound spiritual darkness, and then the path to Me is still infinitely long …. But once My ray of love has touched you then you will also recognize your origin and then you will also safely strive back to the aim, for then your soul will have an inkling of where it has come from and will involuntarily be drawn back to it. My love is able to trigger this realization in it, but I know if and when I can touch such a soul because I know what degree it has reached …. Then ‘unusual grace’ is spoken of, and it is also grace in a certain sense which I, however, know that it will be accepted and correctly evaluated. For the love for My living creations is endless and leaves no-one out …. It merely has to be reciprocated, and then its strength will be able to accomplish everything, including the ascent of a soul to the highest level …. And then the soul returns to its original state …. it becomes again what it was in the beginning, it has changed into My child and will now be eternally close to Me in supreme bliss …. It has achieved childship to God and I have reached My aim, which I set for Myself when I created all beings: that I have children next to Me who can create and work and are exceedingly blissful …._>Amen

Good Friday ….

B.D. 7577 from April 15th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

Through My suffering and death on the cross you found redemption from sin and death …. I offered the sacrifice for you as a human being, I gave My life in dreadful agony in order to redeem your guilt of sin, in order to open the kingdom of light for you again which was closed to you due to your fall into sin. And this sacrifice was made by love in Me, for this alone was capable of accomplishing such a work of mercy, because love is the strength, because love is God Himself from eternity …. What the man Jesus suffered you humans will never be able to measure, for although I Myself was in Him the human body was not spared the suffering and pain because He wanted to atone for the great guilt for the sake of righteousness …. The sin of the past apostasy from Me was so immeasurably great that the beings themselves could not have atoned for it, even if eternities had passed. For the beings were full of light when they rebelled against Me …. And the man Jesus, by virtue of His immense love, knew about this great guilt, He knew that this sin demanded an immense atonement so that justice would be satisfied …. And He offered Himself as a sacrifice to Me, and I accepted this sacrifice because love offered it, or also: I offered it Myself, I Who am eternal love …. I took abode in the man Jesus, I filled Him with My spirit, with My love, which is strength, and thus the man Jesus also mustered the strength for this work of salvation, which was associated with immeasurable suffering and torment, which corresponded to the magnitude of the guilt …. For He wanted to redeem this guilt of sin, He wanted to make atonement for the sake of righteousness …. He also knew the hardship humanity was in when no help was brought to it, and His soul had offered itself to Me as a sacrifice, His soul had remained with Me when His brothers plunged into the abyss, and His soul offered itself for their salvation because they were no longer able to ascend and because the path of return into the father’s house was also blocked for them as long as their great guilt of sin had not been redeemed. The soul of Jesus knew everything …. I had sent My son to earth, I had accepted His offer to make atonement for His fallen brothers …. And He knew about the measure of suffering that awaited Him. But His love impelled Him, His love was for Me and the fallen brothers whom He wanted to bring back to Me again …. He descended to earth and walked the path as a human being, He completely accepted Me into Himself; the love which filled Him more and more …. I Myself …. determined everything He did, for this love was only meant for enslaved humanity which He wanted to release from My adversary’s fetters. And so He walked the path of the cross …. the path of suffering and love …. until the time had come when He sacrificed His life for His fellow human beings, until the day had come when He suffered death on the cross in excruciating pain and agony, when He sacrificed Himself on the cross in order to redeem the great guilt of sin which burdened humanity. He suffered unspeakably, unspeakable pain was inflicted on Him by His adversaries who, as My adversary’s emissaries, went wild on Him …. They were sufferings which no human being would have been able to endure had He not been sustained by the strength of love …. had not love itself filled Him and given Him the strength to persevere until His death. And this act of love redeemed humanity from eternal death …. God’s justice had been satisfied, My love had made the atonement and people were free from their guilt who acknowledge Jesus’ act of salvation and want to participate in it …. I Myself took pity on people, I Myself accomplished the act of salvation in the human being Jesus, I chose a human form which took superhuman suffering upon itself so that My act of mercy became evident to humanity, so that it recognized the magnitude of its guilt and now carries its guilt to Him of its own accord Who died for it on the cross …. And since I Myself was thus in this man Jesus, people now come to Me with their guilt and ask Me for forgiveness …. They acknowledge Me as they once refused to acknowledge Me, and they thereby recognize and confess their guilt …. And I accept everyone who carries his guilt under the cross, and for everyone the path to Me is now also free, for everyone the path to the father’s house is free, for Jesus Christ has opened the gates which were closed due to the fall …._>Amen

Mental drought ….

B.D. 7578 from April 16th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

The spiritual drought has spread alarmingly and everywhere the influx of the living water is resisted …. And even if My messengers spread My word everywhere, it rarely enters the hearts and fertilises them, it is often only listened to with the ears or read according to the letters, but the heart remains untouched by it. There is great spiritual hardship, the fields lie fallow, no little plant thrives on them because it is not fertilised by the water of life …. And therefore My word also remains dead, it does not awaken to life without love. And people go towards the end. They don’t know what this great spiritual hardship means for them, they don’t know that the soul must have found life when the human being’s physical life has ended, otherwise it will remain in a state of death for endless times again …. The spiritual drought is frightening and yet could be remedied so easily, for I continuously let the living water flow and all places could absorb it and become a Garden of Eden, for My water of life possesses this power to transform arid places into fertile land …. But people feel at ease in the drought, they lack nothing and therefore don’t accept anything which could contribute towards a transformation. And My divine flow of love flows constantly, but only a few are under its effect of strength, only a few submerge themselves in this flow of love and recover to new life. But where My flow of love is resisted its strength will also remain ineffective, and the human being will walk along in dry steppe and be unable to draw a refreshing drink from anywhere. For satan walks through the world and prevents people from receiving the blessings of My love …. he represents to them the path that leads to the source …. he presents them with a mirage which they strive towards and never reach the aim …. My adversary determines people’s will and they obey him wherever they could resist him. And when My messengers offer the water of life he whispers empty words into their ears and they pay no attention to what My messengers bring them …. And he has this power over people because they are without love, otherwise they would also possess the strength to resist and they would already be helped if their will turned away from him. And in this spiritual adversity I would like to come to their aid again, as I once did when I descended to earth …. I only want to direct people’s eyes to the act of salvation, to Jesus’ death on the cross, I want them to remember Him and take refuge in Him, Who alone can help them. For I also accomplished the act of salvation for these people, and I would also like to help them to life of the soul, but their own will is required …. They must feel their spiritual drought to be agonizing and long for the water of life, they must call to Me in Jesus Christ, they must take notice of My word and thus allow themselves to be addressed by Me …. They must want the seed to sprout in their hearts and bear fruit. They must want to become blessed, so that they do not remain in death but attain life. They must want to “rise from the dead.” …. As soon as this will is fulfilled they will surely escape death, because then I will be able to influence their thoughts, because then they will deal with life after death in their thoughts and because then they will no longer pass by the source of the water of life but the soul will long for the drink which awakens it to life …. And then the spiritual drought will be remedied, then the soul will not need to fear falling prey to eternal death, then it will be fed and watered, it will come to life and will now no longer lose this life eternally …._>Amen

Easter ….

B.D. 7579 from April 17th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

And I rebuilt the Temple again as I had promised …. I arose from the dead on the third day, and My body also left the grave because it was My will that people should take notice of My resurrection. They did not believe in life after death and I wanted to provide them with the evidence that it had also been possible for Me to conquer death so that they would believe My promise that every person who believes in Me will arise into life. For this reason I let the body in its spiritual state arise from the grave, I appeared to My disciples who were able to see as well as touch Me because they should believe that I arose from the dead as I had previously announced. But only those whose spiritual state permitted it were able to see Me, for I was no longer physically among them, instead, body and soul had spiritualised themselves and therefore were only visible to those who were able to behold Me with spiritual eyes because I had opened their spiritual vision. And this, on the other hand, was the reason why people doubted, that they argued and voiced the suspicion that My body had been unlawfully removed …. just as even today My resurrection on the third day is still doubted by those who do not understand the soul and body’s process of spiritualisation. People do not believe in a resurrection of the soul and yet, all people will experience the same process, when their body dies, of the soul leaving the body and entering the kingdom of the beyond, for it cannot die, but its state can be entirely different depending on its way of life. Had the latter resulted in maturity, the soul would arise into life …. to a new life in the spiritual realm …. My soul was fully matured, it had united with the Father-Spirit of eternity and during earthly life also knew how to influence the body to adapt to its desire, so that the body would already have attained the spiritualisation of all substances on earth and thus was able to arise after death with the soul, of which I provided the evidence on the third day. Yet even this process can only be believed because it can no longer be proven. But anyone who is spiritually awake, who knows of the human being’s purpose and goal on earth, also believes in My resurrection on the third day with convinced faith, for he will be informed by My spirit which, after My resurrection, also illuminated My fully mature disciples who had spiritual vision, because it was My will and because they were already prepared such that the event of the outpouring of the spirit, My ascension, no longer signified a coercion of will. Therefore only a few individual people were able to behold Me after My resurrection and I strengthened these individuals for this unusual event. They saw Me …. and I wanted it this way, because My disciples were meant to go into the world in order to proclaim My Gospel and because they were to bear witness of My resurrection on the third day. However, I did not appear to the unbelievers, for they would not have been able to endure My abundance of light which would have illuminated their spiritual darkness. But anyone who hears My Gospel, who believes in Me and My act of Salvation shall also be able to believe in My resurrection from the dead, and it will indeed be possible for him to believe it because the spirit in him, which emanates from Me, educates him in the same way and grants him a living faith. He will not require any other evidence, inwardly he will be completely convinced that his soul will arise into life, consequently, he will also live his life on earth consciously, he will strive towards unity with Me, he will keep to Jesus Christ and in Him enter into contact with Me Myself …. he will strive spiritually and constantly try to live up to My will …. and he will not need to fear death because he will know that he will arise into eternal life ….

Amen

Overcoming death …. resurrection ….

B.D. 7580 from April 18th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

And your life will be a blessed one, for to have risen from the dead is to have overcome him who was once to blame for your wretchedness, who cast you down to the depths …. To be raised from the dead is to have risen from the depths to the heights, to be able to enjoy light and life and to have escaped darkness eternally. And life is unceasing activity …. you will receive strength and be able to create and work in light and freedom, you will enjoy life, for your activity will make you happy, you will be able to create like Me, and what you want will come into being …. As long as you are still bound in form, be it as a human being or in the works of creation, you are still in the state of death, even though as a human being this state is already somewhat relaxed …. even though as a human being you already possess vitality which you only need to utilize correctly in order to attain eternal life. But I first had to buy this eternal life for you with My blood …. I first had to die on the cross for your sins and then rise from the dead on the third day, because I also had to overcome death and the one who brought death into the world. And only now were you able to come to life, which you will never lose again …. But therefore no being will ever be lost, for the act of salvation was accomplished for all people, and therefore the miracle of My resurrection also applies to all people, I overcame death for all people so that all who are still dead in spirit shall attain life. With My resurrection I have proven to people that death need no longer have any terrors, that there is no death, by which is to be understood a complete passing away of the ‘self’ …. Every person will come to life one day, and it is only up to him whether he spiritualizes himself during his earthly life, as My soul and also My body did through a life of love. For love is true life, love is the strength which stimulates unceasing activity, and every person who wants to reach life from the state of death has to practice love. Then there will be no death for him either, he will only leave the external shell, he will step out of the grave which meant earthly matter for him, his body of flesh, and he will enter eternal life as a free spirit which can dwell everywhere, which can always be active, which is no longer bound to place and time and which is therefore also inexpressibly blissful …._>Amen

Spiritual low level necessitates upheaval of earth ….

B.D. 7581 from April 19th 1960, taken from Book No. 80

You will not experience a spiritual renaissance on this earth anymore. A low level has been reached which almost cannot be surpassed because people merely exist with worldly intentions. They do not consider a spiritual life nor do they ask themselves whether they are fulfilling their real earthly task, because they cannot recognise any other earthly task except serving their physical wellbeing and enjoying life to the fullest …. Only few people start their daily activity with spiritual thoughts, and only these few live their earthly life consciously …. They sense that the human being is not on earth merely for the sake of earthly life. They think about it, and since they are of good will they gradually come to understand the purpose of their earthly life. But there are only few of them, and a person will hardly ever succeed in guiding a fellow human being on the same path and convincing him of his true destiny. And thus one can speak of a low level spiritual which necessitates a change, which involves such a breakdown of creation that it inevitably has to result in an earthly and spiritual turning point.

There have been many times indeed when people lived without God, where much injustice happened and satanic activity was plainly evident. But this situation has gone too far, almost all people now lead a superficial life, they no longer think about it, they have no sense of responsibility, they grow up without faith or merely conform to conventional faith, which is entirely worthless for the development of the soul. And they are also swayed by error, by wrong thinking, they are far from the truth and cannot find it either because they are without love …. And the reason for humanity’s ailment is that love has grown cold …. that people are no longer able to believe in a God and Creator, Who is love, wisdom and might in Himself and to Whom they will have to be accountable for their conduct one day …. They lack love and therefore also awareness, they are spiritually blind and walking towards the abyss. The end will come without fail because order has to be re-established if higher development, which is the purpose for people’s life on earth, is to continue.

Whatever can be saved before the end shall be saved, because God’s love will help wherever the smallest measure of will for good exists. However, it would be wrong to rely on people changing their attitude towards God and faith, it would be wrong to rely on a spiritual change that supposedly will take place on this earth. Because people grant God’s adversary too much power and he truly is using it well. Hence one day his activity will have to come to an end, God will have to take his power from him, his era will have to be brought to an end, and that will also involve impounding his followers as well as himself so that his evil actions will be over for a long time. It will also necessitate a breakdown and transformation of the creations which shelter spiritual substances on earth, which in turn necessitate a new creation …. the formation of a new earth, so that spiritual development can continue …. And God knows when the time is right for this, He knows when humanity has reached its lowest level, when a transformation of earth and all its creation is necessary and, furthermore, He will keep to this time in accordance with His plan of eternity ….

Amen

The paradise of the new earth ….

B.D. 7582 from April 21st 1960, taken from Book No. 80

I will transfer all of you to paradise on the new earth if you remain faithful to Me until the end …. This promise shall spur you on to diligent soul work, it shall be your hope and comfort in difficult days, it shall give you strength to endure, and it shall inspire you to always just stick to Me, to seek strength and comfort from Me, to request help from Me when you are in need. And I will help you …. Anyone who believes in Me will so obviously experience My help, and therefore he will also have nothing to fear whatever will come upon people, for he belongs to My own, who are My constant concern and who therefore will also survive the last battle on this earth because they believe in Me. I want to announce to you that you will certainly have to endure a time of adversity but that you need not fear it, for you will get through it with My strength and it will not affect you as hard as your fellow human beings who have no faith. And when the time comes when you will be harassed from all sides for the sake of your faith, then you will also know that My coming will not last much longer, for for the sake of My own I will shorten the days, for the sake of My own the time will pass quickly …. the time of the last battle of faith on this earth. And then you should always remember and hope for the joys in paradise on the new earth which lie ahead of you according to My promise. One day the time on this earth will come to an end because this is planned in My plan of salvation. And as soon as the first signs are visible you can also expect a quick course of all events. For I want to establish peace and order on earth again so that it can fulfil its task again to serve as a station of education for the spiritual, which will soon no longer be possible in the present time. Therefore a change has to be made, and this is imminent. But for the time being the last battle of faith will take place, because people still have to decide …. because a separation of spirits has to take place, which this battle of faith will bring about. But you, who belong to My own, you who believe in Me and want to remain faithful to Me, you will also survive this time unscathed, for in this battle I Myself am your commander, and together with Me you will win the battle …. because you are also confident and remember My promise. And then the joys in the paradise of the new earth will fully compensate you for all hardship and suffering you had to endure for the sake of faith but which you will also overcome with My strength, with My help …. And therefore you should look forward to that time without fear, for nothing can happen to you except what My will allows …. And this is only a blessing for you …. Only you should want to be and remain Mine …. And the time will pass quickly because I will stop satan’s activity, because his time has expired and he will be put in chains again …. which also causes the end of the old earth and the day of judgment when I will come in the clouds to judge the living and the dead …._>Amen

God's address is a great grace ….

B.D. 7583 from April 22nd 1960, taken from Book No. 80

God’s address has opened up a haven of grace for you which you are unable to appreciate. God pours out His grace on you in abundance because it is the last time before the end and because you humans need a lot of help in your weakness. But if He Himself addresses you, you can draw so much grace that you will meet every demand placed upon you. When He speaks to you His strength flows directly into you, you have a means of grace of utmost importance with His word, for you are already in contact with Him through His word as soon as you receive it with your heart, as soon as you are doers and not just hearers of His word. God truly pours out a measure of grace upon you humans which you do not deserve …. but it is the time of the end, and He knows about your weakness to withstand the challenges of the enemy during this time. He works with cunning and treachery and has many accomplices who support him in his activities …. And it would be easy for them to push all people away from God if God did not also influence people with all means to help them not to get lost to Him. And God’s adversary first tries to destroy faith in God in Jesus Christ, he tries to deprive all people of their faith in a God and creator of eternity Who accomplished the act of salvation in Jesus Christ. But without this faith people are lost for eternity …. And therefore God comes to their aid in such a way that He proves Himself to people through His address …. that He reveals Himself to those who only open their hearts and ears to Him, who want to believe and need help in order to be able to believe …. God reveals Himself by addressing people …. This great grace cannot be grasped, but it is based on God’s great love. He reveals Himself so that people of good will can believe. He gives people an undeserved grace by proving Himself through His address but does not force people to believe but leaves it entirely up to them whether they recognize God’s voice as the father’s voice or not open themselves to grace and then remain a slave to God’s adversary for endless times to come. Being able to believe in God also means salvation from God’s adversary. But if a person loses this faith, then he himself is also lost for eternal times. And God wants to help people to believe by addressing them and can be recognized by anyone who seriously wants it. For God’s address will touch him like a gift which makes him happy and which he no longer wants to miss if only he is willing to listen to Him and think about it …. Then he will draw strength from this address, he will feel addressed by a being Which loves him, and he will also learn to love this being and listen to His address ever more often, he will accept and evaluate a grace and he will become strong in faith in a God and creator Who wants to be recognized as father …. And the human being, as a child, will now also give the father the love which the father demands from His child …. And thus His word is the antidote which shall wring God’s creatures out of the hand of God’s adversary …. The father addresses His child, and the child now remains united with its father for all eternity and has detached itself from hostile power, it has followed Him Who revealed Himself in His love and mercy, but it followed Him of its own free will when it heard God’s address. For no matter how powerful God’s gifts of grace are, they must be accepted and evaluated of their own free will, they must not exert any coercion on people. But God’s love now uses such means in the last days before the end which can be effective with good will on the part of the human being in order to prevent His adversary’s activity, to completely destroy faith in God …. He will not succeed because again and again God reveals Himself, because again and again He comes to the aid of people who are in danger of succumbing to God’s adversary …. But the final decision lies with the human being himself, for no means of grace, no matter how great, will force his will, the human being will always have to freely decide for himself which lord he wants to follow …._>Amen

Serious examination of spiritual knowledge with God's support ….

B.D. 7584 from April 23rd 1960, taken from Book No. 80

No person is denied the right to draw his own conclusions, but he should also know that intellect alone is no guarantee for correct thinking, irrespective of how keenly developed it is. This, in particular, applies to the assessment of spiritual knowledge for which no evidence can be produced. Whether or not such knowledge is truth can be assessed by a person as soon as he turns to God Himself for enlightened thinking …. otherwise he would be unable to examine it or form a correct judgment. But every person also has the right to reject what he cannot accept, providing he is of good will and examines it without bias. He should not blindly believe, he should think about what he is expected to believe, and he should pray for God’s support to do so, he should know that the spirit within instructs him. This also demonstrates the right kind of desire for truth, and thus the truth will be given to him and he will also be able to recognise it as truth. For much is given to people as truth which nevertheless frequently contradicts itself, and then it is up to the person himself to ascertain the truth. But anyone who believes that he can figure it out with his intellect alone can expect to get even more entangled in error, because the intellect is influenced by the adversary of truth, by the prince of darkness, who will do anything to divert people from the truth and provide them with misconceptions.

However, the human being can protect himself by turning to God, by appealing to Him for the recognition of truth. For this reason no one can raise the objection that he is unable to form a correct judgment about truth or error …. As soon as he makes contact with God, as soon as he appeals to Him for enlightenment of spirit he will emotionally recognise whether he should turn to or ignore the spiritual knowledge given to him …. And he will always have the inner certainty of judging correctly because he has not formed his own judgment but God has enlightened his thoughts. But the good will to recognise and to do what is right always has to be part of it …. A rational person, however, will not scrutinise in himself what he is inclined to accept or reject …. He only uses his intellect which, however, takes a different direction, it does not consult God Himself but deems itself qualified for an examination. And it will frequently get it wrong because God does not want to be excluded and because truth comes forth from Him alone.

Yet neither should an examination be omitted because the person allegedly does not feel qualified to make a correct judgment …. For one day he will have to be answerable, and he will not be able to justify himself on account of other people’s judgment which he accepted without hesitation because it was expected of him …. He should attain a living faith and that requires deliberation of what he is taught. Only the living faith will be valued by God, a dead faith, a conventional faith is, however, as good as no faith at all ….

And thus you humans will repeatedly have the opportunity to express your opinion about this or that teaching, about the spiritual information imparted to you, and you do well to turn to God Himself, for He, as the Eternal Truth, will make the truth available to you, He will place it into your heart, so that you will be able to form your own judgment, and that this judgment will also correspond to the truth. You should not just trust in your strength alone, for as soon as God cannot take part due to your will, due to your prayer, someone else will take part and he will make use of your intellect …. Then you will distance yourselves increasingly more from the truth, because he will not rest until he has achieved his objective ….

Amen
