Contact with the world of light or the world of immature spirits ….

B.D. 8292 from October 5th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

Again and again I have to point out that the spiritual world is in constant contact with people on this earth, that it is every light being’s task to guide the people on earth towards the light and that they faithfully implement this task because they work according to My will and that they are only able to fulfil My will if they are enlightened themselves, hence, if they are permeated by My light. All redeemed spiritual beings participate in the redemption of the unredeemed, be they people on earth or the still unredeemed souls in the beyond …. For since they themselves are blissfully happy their love also wants to help the wretched to attain beatitude. And this motivates them to make contact with people on earth by influencing them mentally and by trying to guide them on the right path which leads back to the Father’s house, to Me, from Whom they once voluntarily distanced themselves. However, the beings of light will not implement anything of their own accord which would not be according to My will, and thus their activity relating to people presupposes people’s bond with Me, because only this testifies to the will that the human being will be positively minded and thus can receive help …. Once this heartfelt bond has been established with Me, no person need be afraid of falling prey to deceitful spirits, for his bond with Me protects him from this …. Then the beings of light will guide and advise him and also allow earthly events to approach him such that they will benefit his soul, for then they will always be active on My behalf according to My will. And people should indeed be satisfied with the fact that they are being guided and cared for by the spiritual world of light …. If, however, they try to establish a direct connection with these messengers of light in order to receive spiritual clarification, in order to increase their spiritual knowledge, they will always be advised by them to enter into closest contact with Me and to consciously appeal for and accept My Words …. Only if they united with Me and appealed for the transmission of truth will they be allowed to receive and also accept information from these said messengers of light, who are then working on My instructions again.

But then they will be addressed through My spirit …. hence they will not be able to hear the teachings or messages from the kingdom of light with their physical ears, but the eternal Father-Spirit will communicate with the spiritual spark in the human being, irrespective of whether it happens directly or through the messengers of light, which are merely My spiritual organs through which I work so as to be able to make them happy …..Then the spiritual ear will be able to hear and …. if it is My will …. these messages can be recorded …. The fact that this simple process of the ‘working of My spirit in the human being’ is no longer understood properly …. the fact that it is imitated and that people to this end avail themselves of the spirit world which is still in an unredeemed state in the kingdom of the beyond , is My adversary’s activity who wants to prevent everything which might lead to the realisation of a God and Creator but which is essential in order to return to Me, in order to love Me and to submit to My will …. Contacts with this immature world of spirits can never lead to the light, nothing good can come from it, for they will only add to the error in the world, and therefore you humans must time and again be cautioned to hand yourselves over to these forces who misuse you and your will. Don’t take detours but turn directly to Me, the Eternal Truth Itself, then you will not run the risk of being mislead. For you are unable to judge which spiritual beings approach you, but you can only be protected from their influence if you completely hand yourselves over to Me to lead and guide you, and then you will truly be well protected …. But don’t deliberately hand yourselves over to spiritual forces which always surround you and which try to influence you in every way but which are of service to My adversary. It requires profound sincerity, a humble heart and a genuine desire for truth in order to be chosen for transmissions from the spiritual kingdom which originate from Me …. But then you can be certain that purest truth will be imparted to you, and then you can also pass it on again according to My will ….

Amen

Feeding the soul ….

B.D. 8293 from October 6th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

Whatever food and drink is offered to you for your souls will certainly not remain without effect; your soul will recover when it is ill, it will be strengthened when it is weak, and it will mature and reach perfection while still on earth. For truly My word is a bread from the heavens, it is a true wine that will strengthen you …. It is My word, My flesh and My blood, which I Myself offer to you, just as I offered it to My disciples on earth when I took supper with them …. For this supper was the symbol of what I commissioned My disciples to do: to pass on My word, which they had received from Me, to all hungering and thirsting souls …. Just as I satisfied them earthly, they were also to pass on spiritual food …. And they also understood Me, although the final knowledge was only given to them through the outpouring of the spirit on My disciples …. And thus you humans will only understand My working and acting and also the act of the lord’s supper when My spirit can be poured out upon you, for before you only pay attention to the sense of the letter and you don’t understand what I wanted to express through these words …. But you also have to awaken the spirit within you to life, for before you are still dead in spirit, and then you will not obey My will either, you will not listen to My word such that it will truly be food and drink for your soul …. For the word shall enter your heart, only then will I Myself be in you, and then you will eat My flesh in truth and drink My blood …. You draw the strength from My word which you need in order to mature while still on earth. And thus you will also recognize the urgency of your vineyard work, after all, it is a matter of conveying My word to people so that they establish the bond with Me themselves and My word can now also work in them. No human being’s physical life would be able to exist if the body did not constantly receive nourishment, and the same applies to the soul which, although it cannot perish, is in a wretched state if it is not supplied with nourishment …. And yet, few people think of satisfying the soul’s needs, although I have said: „Eat My flesh and drink My blood ….” I Myself am the word made flesh and I offer Myself to you, thus I also urge you to listen to My word and to obey it, for only when you are not only hearers but doers of My word will you experience the blessing of it …. Again and again I say to you: “Receive and eat, this is My flesh; receive and drink, this is My blood ….” and again and again I speak to you and only ask that you listen to Me, that you thus partake of the supper which I Myself have prepared for My guests who accept My invitation …. And if you have the will to be addressed by Me then you can also accept My word everywhere, for your will now also determines the spiritual knowledge which flows into your heart, because then I Myself will address everyone and he will only accept what he receives as My word …. Understand that the human being’s own desire protects him from accepting misguided spiritual knowledge if you are offered it by preachers who are still unawakened and only preach according to form …. For I Myself will bless the listener and give him bright knowledge as soon as he desires the right nourishment for his soul. But if I Myself can address people then they will eat My flesh and drink My blood in truth, for then the word will sound to them from above through a servant chosen by Me who lets Me Myself speak through him, who receives purest truth from Me and can now also pass it on …. I invite everyone to take part in the supper which I Myself prepare for you, because I know what your souls need in order to mature and because I know every person’s state of maturity. And if he now wants to receive the right bread of heaven, the water of life, from My hands, then it will also be given to him without restriction, and his soul will reach the goal and attain perfection ….

Amen

God's proof of love and presence ….

B.D. 8294 from October 8th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

All My love belongs to you, and this love causes Me to address you and to prove My presence to you. For you should know that you are not abandoned when you feel lonely or find yourselves in earthly adversity …. You should know that there is One Who watches over you, Who holds your fate in His hand, Who determines your earthly path and truly walks beside you as your faithful guide, Whose hand you only need to grasp in order to be able to walk safely and securely through earthly life until the end. If you have this certainty that you can entrust yourselves to Me at any time, then your earthly life will truly be easy for you, you will calmly and serenely let everything approach you because you feel safe under My protection, because you know that you are protected by My love. And then it will also be natural for you to strive to fulfil My will, that you will always do what your father, your friend and brother, submits to you, and you will first fulfil the commandments of love which are the epitome of My word …. For love is My and also your primal element, it is the principle of eternal order, it is the guarantee that you will live for eternity, for it is life itself, it is the strength which impels everything into life and bestows beatitude in abundance …. You will therefore love Me again, Who shows you My great love, and your love will take effect in works of unselfish neighbourly love …. And where love is, there is eternally no more death, there is only happiness and bliss. When the eternal love Itself reaches down to you in order to speak to you, you need never ever fear to get lost, for as soon as you hear My voice you will also be in contact with Me, and My adversary will have lost his power over you, and then there can only be a return to Me, a life which lasts forever. And through My address I only want you to learn to recognize Me and My nature, which is love …. Then you will also know that I will not let you fall, that I will use all means to win you, to release you from My adversary’s control and to give you light and strength again, without which you are wretched. Therefore everything shall be done to inform people that their creator is a God of love, Who therefore gave life to people so that they attain this knowledge on this earth and enter into contact with Him …. I want to give people a small light because they are completely ignorant when they enter earth as a human being, and anyone who accepts the light will truly constantly increase his glow because My love reveals itself to him …. Since My fundamental nature is love, it is impossible for Me to drop a being which once emerged from Me and voluntarily distanced itself from Me …. My love will pursue it and try to break its resistance, however, not forcibly, but one day the being will no longer be able to resist My illumination of love, it will voluntarily hand itself over to Me and open itself to Me so that I can pour My light of love into the being when it lives on earth as a human being. People should only know that they have to acknowledge a God Who is love Himself. Then they cannot get lost because love awakens in them towards Me, Who is their constant benefactor. For this reason I also constantly need servants on earth who impart the knowledge to their fellow human beings …. whom I can impart it Myself beforehand and who reciprocate My love and are therefore also willing to serve Me, to receive My word and pass it on, so that all people can take notice of their God and creator, Whose nature is love, wisdom and might and Who also wants to bestow His love upon all people who are merely willing to accept it. For I also want to prepare an easy life for people, and this will be their share if they know that they can trust Me like a father Who will protect them in every adversity and danger …. that I will walk beside them as a friend and brother as soon as they merely adhere to Me and desire My guidance ….

Amen

Spiritual secrets ….

B.D. 8295 from October 9th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

It is difficult for a person to free himself from misguided teachings and opinions, and he must completely hand himself over to Me so that I can clarify his thoughts and free him from preconceived opinions. Then My adversary will have done a good job, he will have succeeded in spreading renewed darkness if the human being does not seriously demand to come to the pure truth. But even then he only seriously desires it when he is willing to surrender all previous knowledge. You humans have built yourselves an edifice of thoughts which does not fit into My eternal plan of salvation. And you often see that as My working which, however, is the adversary’s working by believing that you are allowed to gain insight into spiritual secrets which, however, are in reality deluded to you by My adversary so that you lose all clarity of thought. And much such spiritual knowledge has penetrated people because they have united with a world without the necessary prerequisites which can only offer them darkness, because it is the kingdom of the prince of darkness itself. You should not desire to know what is naturally kept secret from you if only you would like to penetrate purely intellectually into areas which are still closed to you and will also remain closed until you yourselves have awakened your spirit through a life of love which guides you into truth. And a person who truly unites with Me and appeals to Me for protection from error, from wrong thinking, will certainly also receive the power of judgment from Me and not consider spiritual knowledge to be true which has flowed forth from My adversary …. But you cannot believe every person who wants to instruct you, instead, you first have to know the source of his spiritual knowledge which he imparts to you, for the human being’s intellect can think up many things for which it cannot provide evidence. And as long as you only ever have to deal with intellectual results they should not burden you either, because you always have to tell yourselves that people can err …. But it is different when knowledge is made accessible to you which has demonstrably been conveyed to you humans through the working of My spirit …. Only then will you seriously deal with it by asking Me Myself for enlightenment of your spirit, so that you will carry out a proper examination and be able to recognize what is right. And you can believe that I Myself take care of every individual who seriously desires the truth. And the more willingly you free yourselves from already existing spiritual knowledge the more you will be pleased with the spiritual knowledge you receive from Me, be it directly or through My messengers. For I truly have no pleasure in you being spiritually darkened; I Myself want to bring you the light if only you want to accept it …. But if you desperately hold on to a wrong spiritual knowledge then My adversary will still have a point of attack, and he will not release you and time and again want to force his way into your thinking …. The pure truth is a gift from Me which will not be denied to any of you, which everyone can ask for and will also receive …. if only he humbly recognizes his own shortcomings and comes to Me, for I bestow My grace on the humble, and My word, which sounds from above, is a grace of inconceivable value …. And whoever avails himself of this gift of grace, no darkness will frighten him any more …. For then you will also be allowed to gain insight into My eternal plan of salvation, and My reign and activity will be recognizable and understandable to you, then you will truly recognize your God and creator Who wants to be your father and also gives you everything because you are His children and therefore He does not want you to go hungry. And thus He will also guide you into truth, as I Myself promised you when I lived on earth ….

Amen

Does God punish the children for the sins of the fathers? ….

B.D. 8296 from October 11th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

It is My will that you humans should live in truth because erroneous thoughts will obstruct your ascent, and because one misguided thought can result in many wrong thoughts. And hence you shall receive explanations too, providing you want these for the sake of the pure truth:

Although you are asked to believe in My justice, you should nevertheless not get a false impression of Me due to teachings which portray Me as a heartless God Who punishes unfairly …. And this false impression will come about as long as you do not understand the meaning of the words ‘I will punish the sins of the fathers up to the fourth generation ….’ It is not the case that I Am merciless and that children and grandchildren have to do penance for the sins of their fathers …. because every soul is responsible for itself and has to make

Amends for their own guilt while still on earth, as long as it does not accept salvation through Jesus Christ. Nor will children and grandchildren be held responsible for the sins of their fathers …. But it can be a natural consequence of certain sins which affects children and grandchildren …. so that weaknesses and disabilities of a physical and psychological nature occur which are caused by the fathers’ sinful life. And this consequence is also visible to other people, hence the weaknesses and disabilities are now regarded as punishments on My part.

As long as the people who have become sinful are still alive, the awareness that they are to blame for their children’s misery can be punishment for them too, they can, due to this awareness, now also make

Amends for their sins, i.e. render a just compensation for their guilt, but they can only find forgiveness when they take their guilt to the cross and ask Jesus Christ for forgiveness, for salvation …. But the equally ‘punished’ children are souls in their own right who have consciously accepted the difficult fate of their earthly life in order to achieve maturity sooner, because they are informed of this beforehand and can also refuse to accept this fate. It is always merely a matter of the souls’ maturation. The physical existence as a human being is more or less irrelevant …. a difficult earthly life is far more likely to lead to perfection than a peaceful and enjoyable earthly existence ….

You people, however, still being ignorant, regard your lives as human beings too highly …. And you will always accuse Me of injustice when you are hard hit by fate, although it is based on My love for you …. The process of return offers many options but you rarely recognise them as such …. You only ever regard the conditions of adversity as heartlessness and injustice on My part, yet you do not recognise in them the opportunities to achieve complete maturity. Everything you do will be subject to law, naturally as well as spiritually. And thus every transgression will result in consequences which are sometimes obvious but occasionally not apparent, because an offence against My eternal order will always have a negative effect, because My justice alone will provide the human being with opportunities for compensation, so that he can make

Amends for his guilt while still on earth and need not enter the kingdom on the other side excessively burdened …. And even if he passes over unredeemed, if he has not yet found salvation through Jesus Christ, he can still be affected by the fate of those he cared about during his earthly life and feel remorse. And herewith he will have already taken a step forward because, although he will also be helpless in the kingdom on the other side due to his sinfulness, he will nevertheless try to help his loved one …. He has the will to do so and this is credited to him as love, and now he will be equally helped by the spiritual world …. Alternatively however, souls also consciously accept a difficult life in order to help those who facilitate their embodiment on earth and because they often notice the same inclinations and hence feel attached to them.

When they say that the sins of the father will be punished up to the fourth generation, this only means that serious offences against the eternal order result in naturally lawful consequences, which I, however, consent to because they in turn can enable other souls’ ascent. It is up to a person’s completely free will as to how he conducts himself in earthly life, just as it is the completely free will of the soul which embodies itself again.

When ‘punishment’ on My part is mentioned it is a misconception in as much that everything is only for the benefit of the soul, whatever is inflicted on it and whatever happens to it in its earthly life …. Because many a soul can only mature by way of suffering because it does not acquire a high degree of love of its own accord …. which subsequently would result in the decrease of suffering and make its fate on earth more endurable. However, as long as you always just want to see injustice on My part in regards to the destiny of long-suffering people you are merely displaying your lack of knowledge of My eternal plan of salvation; furthermore, you are unaware of My greater than great love for you, which only ever wants to save and will never condemn …. Compared to eternity time on earth is only brief, but during this extremely short period of time you humans have the opportunity to gather many treasures for eternity, you can make

Amends for much injustice and enter the kingdom of light, providing you find Jesus Christ and ask Him for forgiveness of your guilt ….

Amen

God's justice ….

B.D. 8297 from October 12th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

That My righteousness cannot be circumvented is irrefutable, otherwise I could not be called perfect …. Yet this justice was satisfied by the man Jesus, Who offered Me the most difficult sacrifice a human being has ever made and will ever make on earth, for He was completely sinless and took upon Himself the sins of the whole of humanity in order to atone for them. Thus He was not struck by the effects of His own sins but He voluntarily took upon Himself the concentrated burden of humanity’s sins, He suffered unspeakably and died the most agonising death on the cross for love of humanity. You, who believe that people must and can atone for their guilt themselves, must bear this in mind, for no human being is capable of doing so, because every sin is an offence against love, against Me Myself, even if it is committed against the next person …. You humans can certainly also contribute your share by being offered the opportunity on earth to make amends for the wrong you have committed, and for this purpose you yourselves are plagued by evils of all kinds which are the consequences of your sinful way of life or actions and which therefore come upon you so that you yourselves will recognize the way you have transgressed against Me or against your neighbour. For you should come to realize your guilt in order to carry it to Jesus Christ under the cross, Who will only be able to remit your sins if you ask Him for it yourselves. And you should regard all disagreements, all strokes of fate which affect you, more as means of education, as means through which you should come to self-knowledge in order to voluntarily turn away from evil and, if possible, make amends, i.e. already make atonement on earth in order not to have to stay in extreme torment in the beyond until self-knowledge comes to you there. You will never be able to attain beatitude without Jesus Christ, precisely because only He can redeem your guilt, be it the original guilt of your past apostasy from God or the sins committed in earthly life, for you must also appeal to Jesus Christ for forgiveness for these, for you cannot redeem the guilt yourselves, no matter how much suffering you have to endure on earth or in the kingdom of the beyond …. You must find your way to Jesus Christ, you must take the path to Him so that the gates into the kingdom of light will be opened to you. The fact that time and again the effects of guilt will rebound on you humans is divine law, but it will not redeem you from this guilt, no matter how much you have to suffer, instead, the latter will only ever have an educational value, so that one day you will take the path to the cross …. to Jesus, Who alone atoned for all guilt through His act of salvation. You should always bear in mind that every person creates the state he finds himself in, that his wretchedness, his difficult situation in life, was caused by the soul’s own free will …. The fact that it is in extreme remoteness from God due to its guilt of sin, for which it is responsible itself …. must also result in an unhappy state which, however, it can change itself, which again has to be done by its free will. Now in the last days many souls are embodied as human beings whose degree of maturity is very low but the time has expired which was set for their release from the form and now also this immaturity of the souls often comes to light through God-opposing actions …. and thus people’s sinfulness is also unusually great, which also requires difficult living conditions and purification opportunities of various kinds which are inexplicable to the spiritually unawakened human being and make them doubt My love and justice or lead them to the erroneous assumption that immature souls have been transferred back to earth …. Yet these are incarnations of souls which have passed through the earthly creation and have not attained a high degree of maturity but which nevertheless can free themselves from every form in earthly life because they need only take refuge in Jesus, Who will help them in every weakness, Who can strengthen their will if it only turns to Him …. Yet those souls will also be left free in their will and thinking, but the best means of education will be used by Me in order to still win them before the end. The fact that they will now also be unusually harassed by the prince of darkness and his followers cannot be denied, yet I will also obviously stand in their way but it has to be left up to them which lord they choose. And their state will also be accordingly when the end has come …. They will attain life or fall prey to death again for a long time ….

Amen

"You shall have no foreign gods beside Me …. "

B.D. 8298 from October 14th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

You shall have no gods beside Me …. These words are very meaningful because everything you strive for in earthly life can mean more to you than I, your God and father from eternity, as well as your heart is attached to earthly goods and therefore you seek no bond with Me …. Then what you desire with all your senses is your God …. And even if you still accept Me by acknowledging a power above you, Which created you, you still have foreign gods next to Me …. always according to the desire which arises from your heart. Be it earthly goods, the desire for honour and fame or even people who displace Me from your heart, it is always foreign gods which prevent your ascent upwards, for all these gods are transient, you have to sacrifice them, when your earthly life is over, and one day you will enter the kingdom of the beyond empty-handed if you don’t put Me Myself first, Who, after all, wants to be your only goal in earthly life and Whom you must strive for with all your strength if you want to become blessed …. I am your God and creator, from Whom you once originated, and I want you to recognize and acknowledge Me …. And you shall give Me the evidence of this by being willing to give up everything if you exchange Me Myself and My love for it. Then I am truly the one God for you, to Whom you should feel that you belong and Who wants to be united with you as your father for time and eternity. But now consider your life on earth, which only seems worth living to you if you possess everything your heart desires …. So you have created many gods for yourselves which you place next to Me …. provided that you believe in Me as your creator. But this faith is worthless as long as you don’t seriously strive towards Me …. but the world and your desire for it holds you back. Your love belongs to many things which, however, are My adversary’s share, and you should overcome the desire for them so that I Myself will now be placed in the foreground of your thinking and you will drop all other gods …. But you also create gods for yourselves besides Me if you call upon beings in the spiritual kingdom in the belief that you will reach the goal, eternal bliss, through their intercession …. Even then your attitude towards Me is not yet right, because in earthly life it is a matter of establishing the bond with Me which you once voluntarily broke off …. And you have to accomplish this act of voluntary and conscious return to Me yourselves, and no intercessor would be able to achieve this through his intercession …. They will only ever mentally show you the path to Me Myself, which you irrevocably have to take in order to become blissfully happy. For you should know that the love of those beings of light is so great that they would like to bring you back to Me if My law of eternal order were not also anchored in them, that they themselves do not force a person to want and think on earth …. But according to the law of order I demand from eternity that every soul voluntarily takes the path to Me, and therefore I want to be and remain their God, for Whom they are willing to sacrifice everything. I want to completely possess your hearts because I want to fill them with My love …. But as long as a heart is not yet free from desires and cravings of all kinds, this heart therefore still has foreign gods within it, which prevent Me from entering and reigning in it alone …. Yet if I fully possess a soul this means that I can now also prepare the highest happiness for it, and truly, it will not regret having given up the other goods in order to exchange Me for them, but now I am the sole ruler in the human being’s heart and nothing can undo the intimate bond between us. Therefore, seriously examine yourselves as to whether you are still filled with desire for things which mean more to you than I Myself, be they material things or people, and seek to dethrone them so that the first place remains for Me …. seek to stifle all earthly desire within yourselves and free yourselves from all idolatry, which includes all love for the world, for then you will truly only serve My adversary, the prince of darkness, to whom this world belongs, and thus he is your god to whom all sacrifices you offer are meant. Mammon will then be your god, and this god will crush you, for he does not belong to My kingdom where I alone reign in love and wisdom …. And those who want to belong to Me shall worship Me alone, i.e. only carry Me in their heart, and I will not only be their God and creator but also their father to them ….

Amen

Statement on dream state ….

B.D. 8299 from October 15th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

I truly also want to let you gain an insight into the processes that take place in the human body which you cannot explain to yourselves: it is the dream state which causes you to ask how it can be explained …. In the state of sleep it is mainly the organs that are inactive, the human being is without consciousness, i.e., his intellect does not work as it does in the waking state ….. Nevertheless, thoughts lie hidden in the subconsciousness which now unfold and ascend but which do not reveal any order but push their way in confused confusion to the brain and from there seek to communicate themselves to the soul, which is not asleep but is also in contact with the organs of thought so that they can also be awakened and stimulated by the soul at any time to the usual activity …. that the soul therefore determines sleep and also wakefulness …. Since the thinking organs in the state of sleep are therefore not subject to the soul’s control, the strangest images and events can take place in the brain, which people perceive as confused and incomprehensible, but which can also be clear …. The human being usually does not take these results from the subconscious, i.e. experiences of the soul in past times, which can also reach into the time of its pre-embodiment in the state of compulsion, over into the waking state, but sometimes they stick and the human being knows about these dreams, he can reproduce them and only wonders about the often impossible connections …. Under subconsciousness it is to be understood that the soul as such also takes in impressions during earthly life which were not passed on to the intellect, thus the human being knows nothing about them or experiences have long since sunk but are still present as impressions in the brain and now rise up in sleep …. Thus knowledge of processes can slumber in the soul which comes to the surface in the dream state, which touch the thinking organs in distorted images because the state of sleep does not allow for proper thinking activity, but they are claimed by the soul, otherwise the human being does not allow for any recollection in the awake state …. which, however, is sometimes also the case when it concerns processes which the soul does not want to make known to the human being. But if it concerns real dreams of truth the soul, in its ability as a spiritual being, foresees things which concern the human being, and it also passes them on to the thinking organs in the clearest way, stimulating their activity to such an extent that they are able to reproduce such dreams, whereby the human being also has the feeling that such dreams are more than the usual dreams, that they have their significance and are to be heeded as a warning of the soul or indications of forthcoming events ….. The soul is the spiritual in the human being, which …. according to its maturity …. is not bound in its freedom of movement, the soul can dwell in spheres where it receives new impressions which it is not always able to explain to itself because it lacks the necessary maturity …. And these impressions can also be explained by the term ‘subconscious’, which uncontrollably rise from the soul and become conscious to the intellect, but only in states where the intellect is not wide awake …. i.e. in dreams or in states of stupor, where the human being then expresses what is incomprehensible to his fellow human beings …. When sleep is dreamless then all organs are in deep rest, and then the sleep is also invigorating, and even then the soul dwells in other spheres it nevertheless keeps all impressions to itself, it gives no knowledge of them to the thinking organs …. But as soon as the human being awakens, contact is also established with all human organs which it now stimulates into activity, which are determined by the soul, for all thinking, feeling and willing are expressions of the soul, because the organs would in themselves be without life if the soul did not animate the human being. And this explanation should suffice for you, even though the dream state could still be explained far more exhaustively, yet your receptiveness must always be reckoned with as long as you are not yet able to gain insight into spiritual spheres yourselves, which will still reveal much to you when you are allowed to dwell in them yourselves ….

Amen

The mystery of love ….

B.D. 8300 from October 16th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

When you will dwell in spiritual realms where you will be permeated by the divine light of love, then even the smallest shadow will disappear from you and you will be immeasurably blissful due to the endless love and grace of God, your father from eternity …. Then His work will have succeeded completely, out of His creatures …. from the works of His love and power …. children who are now true images of Himself …. And only then will you be able to comprehend the love and patience this work demanded from His side, because His creations were endowed with free will and were also able to use it in every direction …. And now you will give Him your unlimited love, because bright recognition is a prerequisite for a return of love from you, because before you are simply incapable of showing love to your God and father which is so profound and holy that it includes all beatitude within itself. And only then will you have penetrated the mystery of love yourselves, you will know that it is the elementary power which let everything come into being ….. For you have now become love yourselves and thus also eternally merged with God, Who Himself is love, thus also the original source of all strength …. One day God will reach this goal, one day you yourselves will have become what He could not create but had to strive for in free will by His created works, which were radiated out as beings into infinity …. As free, radiant beings they return to Him again in order to eternally no longer separate from Him …. And when you walk the earth as a human being then the last phase of your transformation into a ‘child of God’ begins …. if your free will allows it, if it does not put itself on the defensive against God again and then the goal on earth cannot be reached either …. Yet anyone who beholds Him and His love in earthly life will also be seized and drawn by His immeasurable love, he will also feel touched and no longer offer any resistance …. And as soon as His love can have an effect on him, because the resistance is broken, the ascent will certainly have begun and the human being will still reach his goal on earth. He enters into intimate union with eternal love and can now no longer sink back to the abyss …. Only He Who is the eternal Itself, to Whom nothing is hidden, Who can look into the heart, Who knows about all feelings in the human being and can also judge what is impossible for a human being to judge …. And upon his entry into the kingdom of the beyond this degree of love is decisive for the degree of light penetration and thus also of bliss …. But the human being on earth lacks this ability to judge, for he will never be able to look into the heart unless he himself is already illuminated to such an extent that he is able to see spiritually. But then he also knows that his spiritual insights are only of value to himself, that he cannot transfer them to his fellow human being who has not yet attained this spiritual maturity. God’s love is so infinitely profound that it takes care of every individual and lets the light of love shine to him if only he is willing and opens himself voluntarily, i.e. if he consciously enters into contact with Him, consciously endeavours to fulfil God’s will and strives for light ….. For then he will also live according to God’s will, Who now places His will into his heart. And then his degree of love will also constantly increase because he receives the light of love from God with every conscious bond with Him. When he then enters the kingdom of the beyond, his soul will consciously experience this radiance of love and be immeasurably happy. In earthly life, however, the process of the radiation of love on God’s part is evident in no other way than through the hearing of His speech, which is now proof of God’s presence and His working …. The body as such will not feel any unusual touch, and the soul will certainly be allowed to receive and be illuminated but will not make it known to the body, so that a person’s degree of love will not be outwardly recognizable either, but God Himself, Who knows everything and to Whom even the most hidden things are revealed, will …. However, if the soul discards the body then it will radiate in brightest brilliance and there will no longer be any barriers for it, it will be blissfully happy in freedom and light and strength, it will live for eternity ….

Amen

Bringing the small flock together ….

B.D. 8301 from October 17th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

There are only ever a few who serve Me wholeheartedly and these shall unite in intimate fellowship, for they belong to the small flock which I will fetch in the end in order to bring them to the new earth when the time has come …. Where My spirit is obviously active there are the followers of My church, the church which I Myself founded on earth, who are devoted to Me in firm faith and love and who thus form the foundations of My church …. But the characteristic of this church is the working of My spirit, the spirit which introduces you to all truth. The earth is large and everywhere I need supports, everywhere I need strong rocks on which I can build My church …. A profound faith, which comes forth from love, must be found there, then I Myself can be with My own in spirit and administer to them the bread of heaven, the water of life …. And since people urgently need it I will also open up a source everywhere from which the earthly pilgrims can draw strength, from which they can draw what they need for their path of life …. And only pure truth will ever be sent to them from Me as soon as it is seriously desired. Hence the spiritual knowledge which has originated from Me must also correspond, and by this you will be able to recognize whether you are also at the right source which My love has made accessible to people. And you must not contaminate this water of life flowing to you from Me, otherwise it will lose strength and effect and no longer possess the healing power for the souls with which I Myself have blessed My word. But My word will have an extremely beneficial effect where it is eagerly received, where it is recognized as the father’s loving address, where it is spread by My servants whom I have chosen for this work in My vineyard. You don’t know My ways but they are often so strange, and people are brought together through My will who are of one heart and one mind and who belong to Me completely, so that I can also work through them directly. For whatever is possible shall still be done until the end in order to save souls from darkness, and this can only be accomplished by the light from above which illuminates the path people have to take in order to reach the goal ….. I only need the complete devotion of those who want to serve Me in order to now also be able to work in them and through them …. Then lights will be kindled which will shine far into the night, and then My presence will be so obvious that every doubt about a divine working will vanish and also be recognized and known before the whole world. My strength will become powerful in the weak and My working will be obvious …. For I know how to guide the hearts so that they will find each other, I hold all threads in My hand, and when the time has come you will also receive the knowledge about your task, which is My will to carry out. Everyone shall do what is possible for him in order to serve Me, and I will bless his work in such a way that time and again you will recognize My greater than great love for you and therefore also give Me your love, which I long for …. You are still scattered and each one works for himself, but one day My small flock will come together and you will work together, as it is My will …. Then it will also recognize itself as belonging to Me and together take up the fight against My adversary, who will do everything to drive the flock apart, to deprive it of its shepherd and take for himself what threatens to escape from him …. Yet he will not succeed, for My flock remains faithful to Me, it constantly receives the strength to hold together and resist, and he will have to give up his fight, for he will be defeated by My strength. And I will appear in greatest adversity. And this coming of Mine is imminent, and this assurance shall comfort all who feel weak, for I Myself will strengthen them that they will persevere until the end ….

Amen

God's unlimited love and its power ….

B.D. 8302 from October 18th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

I look after all My living creations with untiring love and patience and take all their weaknesses into account, helping them to reach the height again from which they plunged into the abyss of their own free will. Time and again My love follows them when they turn away from Me, and time and again I send them My messengers of light who participate in the return of all fallen spirits and are active in My will. But only when My living creations learn to recognize My love will they give up their resistance, only then will they allow themselves to be drawn upwards without offering resistance, and then the return to Me, from Whom they once distanced themselves because they followed another whom they could behold and who was radiant in beauty, will be initiated. The return to Me, however, only takes place when they follow One Who bore all disgrace and suffering on earth, Who walked the path to the cross unsightly and disgraced, Who atoned for the grave guilt of sin of your past apostasy from Me with the most bitter torments and the most shameful death on the cross, Whose love for His fallen brethren was so great that He thus took Me Himself, as the ‘eternal love’, into Himself …. and thus love Itself took pity on you, Which always and forever applies to you, who once came forth from My love. Love created you, love redeemed you from the captivity of the enemy, and this love will apply to you for all eternity. Yet you humans do not understand this, for you are imperfect, thus of limited thinking, and you would not be able to endure the strength of My love if I did not restrict it according to your degree of perfection. You would perish if I wanted to shine upon you in all fullness of strength and light …. But this love belongs to you and therefore you can also request it, and you will never make a wrong request if you only desire My love. But the fact that you don’t use the strength of My love, which is at your unlimited disposal, is again due to your imperfection, for you are still without realization to a certain extent as long as you don’t develop love within yourselves …. You must not deny the entrance into your heart to the love which constantly wants to shine upon you, you must voluntarily open your heart to Me and ask Me to fill it with My love …. And truly, you yourselves will glow with hot love and turn your love towards everything that surrounds you …. And then you will unite with Me Myself through love, and you will be able to work with Me and My strength and help wherever your help is needed. You should only believe in My infinite love for you, which you may receive without limitation because I will not deny Myself to anyone who desires My love …. But love only wants your bliss, it wants to give itself away, to make you happy, it only ever wants to give …. and what it wants to give you is light, strength and freedom …. the state which was your share in the beginning when you emerged from Me as perfect creatures …. You should reach this state again because it was a state of bliss where My love could radiate (flow) through you unhindered, where you could create and work for your own happiness. The fact that you voluntarily gave up this blissful state and fell into the abyss did not diminish My love for you but allowed Me Myself to constantly court your love, and I find My highest bliss in the voluntary return of My living creations as My children, for My love is unlimited and will therefore not cease and one day also accomplish the work of deifying My living creations, which was the last goal of My work of creation. But for you humans love will remain a mystery until you yourselves will dwell in the kingdom of light, glowing with love, where the darkness which still overshadows you in earthly life has fallen away, even though you are devoted to Me and strive towards Me. For as long as I can only give you My love in a limited way in order not to endanger your existence, you will not understand My infinitely profound love either, which is My fundamental nature and which can never pass away. Yet My assurance that this love of Mine belongs to you should make you happy and only ever strive to ascend, you should only ever seek unification with Me, which can only take place again if you kindle the love within yourselves and let it flare up into a bright flame. But then you will also be close to the goal, and your departure from this earth will be a blissful one, because you will only discard the heavy body and enter the realms of eternal light and eternal peace …. because then you will be united with Me and will remain so for all eternity ….

Amen

The act of Salvation and its spiritual reason ….

B.D. 8303 from October 19th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

Time and again explanations are given to you about the mission of the man Jesus on earth, especially since you received such inadequate information by those who deem themselves chosen to educate you but who did not penetrate into more profound knowledge themselves …. and are therefore not enlightened enough about the act of Salvation and its spiritual reason as to be capable of teaching their fellow human beings. And so people have never properly understood it and consequently don’t know what immense significance the act of Salvation has for the whole of humanity …. They don’t know that the entire purpose of earthly life will remain unfulfilled unless they take the path to the cross, to the divine Redeemer Jesus Christ. People are not aware of the fact that their existence as a human being on this earth was caused by the enormous original sin of the spirits’ past apostasy from God …. that the whole earth as well as all creations in the universe were only the result of this original sin, and that the sole purpose of these creations rests in guiding the fallen spirits back to God again …. For disintegrated in countless minute particles they pass through the creations and thereby gradually travel the path towards God …. This is indeed an unspeakably agonising state for the spiritual being during its path of return, for it is not free and helpless, and although the dissolved spiritual beings are deprived of their sense of self-awareness the spiritual substance nevertheless feels the agonies of banishment in the works of creation, since prior to its apostasy from God it existed in complete freedom and any constraint is a state of torment for the spiritual being. However, the immense agonies of banishment in the form …. be they in the mineral and plant or the animal-world which it has to pass through …. . do not suffice to redeem this very guilt the spiritual beings had burdened upon themselves due to their rebellion against God, for the beings had been incredibly brightly enlightened, they knew about their origin and were constantly permeated by God’s love Who thereby provided them with unimaginable bliss. And despite being conscious of their origin they rejected this strength of love and thereby became subject to darkness …. Hence this immense original sin could not be redeemed even with the greatest amount of pain in the banished state …. And therefore the fallen beings would eternally have been denied entry into the kingdom of light if the redemption of guilt had not been undertaken by a Being of light Which offered to achieve the act of atonement for love of the fallen brothers ….

This Being of light …. a non-fallen original spirit, Which had embodied Itself on earth in the human being Jesus …. wanted to achieve a unique act of compassion, for It descended from the light into the dark spheres of the spirits which had become sinful, It descended into the realm of God’s adversary, of the first-fallen original spirit Lucifer, who kept his followers in bondage and demanded an extortionate purchase price for every single soul …. And this purchase price was paid by the human being Jesus by means of His act of Salvation, by means of an immeasurable process of suffering and torments which came to an end with His death on the cross …. Thus He redeemed the great original sin of the once fallen spirits as well as all people’s sin of guilt on earth, which had been the consequences of their affiliation to God’s opponent …. He accomplished a unique act of mercy and was only able to carry it out because He was full of love, because as a human being on earth He had shaped Himself such that the eternal Deity …. Love Itself …. was able to take abode in Him, so that It utterly permeated Him with strength of love and this Love subsequently also made the sacrifice …. which now has to be voluntarily accepted by every person in order to liberate himself from the adversary’s control …. For the human being is the spiritual being which is returning to God through the works of creation, whose individual minute particles had gathered again and were allowed to embody themselves as soul within a human being, in order to then consciously travel the last distance of the path of return and also consciously accept Jesus Christ’s help, as without it his effort to ascend will remain unsuccessful. No human being can and may avoid Jesus Christ, for there will be no liberation from the control of God’s adversary without Him, Who conquered the adversary through His death on the cross and now wrests every soul from him which voluntarily takes the path to the cross, which prays to Jesus for forgiveness of its guilt and for help in order to return to the Father again. This knowledge about the significance of the act of Salvation must be conveyed to people, only then will they turn to Him of their own free will and with His help also reach their goal, they will return to their Father’s house, to their God and Creator and then remain with Him forever ….

Amen

Destruction of Earth ….

B.D. 8304 from October 20th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

One thing is certain, My Word is and will remain truth and you humans need not doubt that which has originated from Me. Since the time is constantly coming closer which concludes one period of Salvation so that a new one can begin, the clarifications will also be given to you increasingly less veiled, and shortly before the end I will initiate you into My eternal plan of Salvation and inform you about things which have so far remained concealed to you because this knowledge was not necessary for the salvation of your souls. But now the time has come when My plan of Salvation will be implemented as far as it concerns the transformation of earth, which has become unsuitable as a place of education for the spiritual beings and which therefore has to be restored so that it will be able to fulfil its purpose again. You must bear in mind that My love also applies to the spiritual substance which is still bound in the works of creation and that I also want to give new forms to this spiritual substance in order to facilitate its higher development. For these bound spirits have already languished for an infinitely long time in the hard matter which makes up the earth, i.e. all creations on it …. And this hard matter as well as the bound spirits within the earth must one day be dissolved, respectively released, so as to be able to enter new forms, and therefore the work of destruction will be on a humanly incomprehensible scale; consequently a total disintegration of all earthly creations can be spoken of, although it should be borne in mind that the material building blocks will remain but effectively unconstrained until I shape them into forms again to serve the spirits as a cover once more …. Thus the creation work Earth will not cease to exist, because all that which was dissolved shall be held and shaped into new forms again by My will, on account of which one can speak of a new earth …. Concluding this period of Salvation is an act of greatest mercy for all spiritual beings on earth and those bound in the works of creation, which signifies a complete transformation but not the disappearance of the planet Earth ….

However, this transformation will only be recognisable on the earth’s surface, because people would be unable to detect or follow the process of the inner change even if they were able to consciously observe the transformation. But the latter will not be the case, for it will be the work of an instant, because all the conditions already exist to animate the new creations with the spiritual substance which has reached the appropriate degree of maturity; for all these tiny particles are present and need only be placed into external forms again which are beneficial for them. All the same, you humans cannot possibly imagine this final work of destruction, although you yourselves give rise to it through your anti-divine experiments to penetrate the earth’s interior in order to avail yourself of forces which you cannot control as yet and whose ramifications you don’t know …. But neither will I stop you since the time I designated for the past period of Salvation has also come to an end …. Yet time and again I emphasise the fact that I will leave nothing in the old state and that no living being will survive, and that I will also give the still constrained spirits their temporary freedom, which therefore implies that even the hardest matter must one day release the spiritual substance and for this purpose has to be dissolved too, in order to harden anew and to shelter spirits again, as is My will …. Since matter itself is only spiritual substance at the start of its development it can therefore not cease to exist either, and therefore the creation work ‘Earth’ will not vanish but only be transformed, and you can believe these Words even if the whole process of the end of the old earth is still incomprehensible for you …. However, everything is possible for Me and everything is based on My infinite love …. If you therefore only regard My work of destruction as an act of cruelty on My part you are still far removed from the right realisation …. Yet you only ever want to see humanity’s destiny and fail to take the spirits bound in hard matter into account for whom the moment of liberation from their present form also has to come one day, so that their higher development can also take place according to My plan of eternity …. And because this end is constantly coming closer I Am informing you of My plan of Salvation, so that you will not belong to those who forfeit the blessings of existing as a human being on earth and run the risk of being banished into the creations again …. And I truly instruct you in all truth yet it will only be accepted by the person who wants to know the truth and has the sincere will to reach his goal on this earth ….

Amen

The Father's evidence of grace during the last days ….

B.D. 8305 from October 21st 1962, taken from Book No. 87

You shall not lack the evidence of grace during last days before the end, for you will need it in order to become and to stay strong and to stand firm against the adversary’s onslaughts. But I, too, will also reveal Myself equally obviously to you and you need only pay attention to your daily course of life in order to always feel My presence. For I want to prove to you that I know all your problems and afflictions and look after you. Admittedly, some suffering cannot be spared to you because I want you to conclude your life on earth with the highest possible maturity of soul, and it will only last for a short time, then all suffering will be over and you will gratefully remember what you had to live through …. because you will see the success your suffering will have gained you. Nevertheless I Am close to you and will look after you and lead you through everything destiny still has in store for you. It is only important that your faith becomes stronger, because then you will be able to achieve everything and need not be afraid of failing. Time and again I will speak to you, explain to you everything you need to know. I will reveal My nature to you so that you will trustingly confess all your problems to Me and appeal to Me directly for help, which I will certainly grant you. And no matter what approaches you each day, time and again you shall recognise My guidance in it, you should know that I Myself direct and guide everything and that no event approaches you arbitrarily, instead, everything is intended by My love and wisdom so that it will be a blessing for you and your fellow human beings. Those of you who have to achieve an obvious task on earth …. those of you who consciously serve Me of your own free will …. are under My particular protection and truly need not worry, for I will look after you, and I will help you to complete your task, for I know how necessary it is and how much benefit can still arise from it …. Therefore, place yourselves trustingly into My hands, for who could possibly take better care of you than a Father Who loves His children and only wants what is best for them? …. Just always be willing to let Me speak to you, for many explanations are still needed because humanity lives in error and spiritual darkness …. You will often still be surprised by My guidance and may experience such obvious evidence of grace that it will intensify your love for Me and, time and again, it will strengthen your faith, which will certainly be necessary in the coming time. For My adversary will also tempt you time and again, he forever endeavours to divert you from your spiritual mission, from all spiritual striving. The bright light illuminating you, resulting from your constant bond with Me, annoys him and he wants to extinguish it …. Yet he will not succeed, because My countermeasures work against him, not just yours alone …. And he will truly not be able to overrule Me …. You, however, are under My protection, you already belong to Me on account of your voluntary cooperation, and thus I will certainly know how to protect you from him and his activity. Therefore don’t worry about anything that approaches you from his side, from his vassals …. who will try anything to prevent you from continuing My work, who want to place doubts into your hearts in order to incapacitate you to carry on working for Me …. Your faith and your firm bond with Me will ignore everything, and time and again I will give evidence of Myself and be present to you. However, you should know that you can only be fully effective for Me when you have completely detached yourselves from the world …. And thus you will understand why I Myself help you to become free from all worldly desires, you will understand why you are often physically impeded to make even the slightest concessions to the world …. Yet believe that I will bless your suffering, and whatever you will have to relinquish will one day be amply rewarded …. As yet I still need your services, for earth is suffering extreme adversity, people do not consider the end, they thoughtlessly live from day to day and spend no thought on what is to come, on their state after their death, because they don’t believe that their life on earth is of significance, that they have to fulfil a task and that they themselves create the state they will be in after their death which they, however, cannot avoid anymore if they don’t take serious stock of themselves and change. For this reason I will try everything in My power in order to inform people about the purpose of their earthly life, in order to still save souls before the end, which will not be long in coming …. For the time is completed, the end is near ….

Amen

Sympathy and antipathy ….

B.D. 8306 from October 22nd 1962, taken from Book No. 87

Every spiritual question you ponder shall be answered, for I want you to be enlightened, but you should always request the light from Me directly. Thus I want to explain which spiritual currents you are subject to in association with your fellow human beings and how these currents affect you. You should know that all people are bound by My adversary as long as they are still unredeemed, that they are enslaved, and, according to their state of maturity which solely depends on their degree of love, also influenced by My adversary, that they more or less succumb to his influence and show this in their nature. Understandably, similar kinds of character will attract each other, that is, a human being will always seek to interact with people who exhibit the same disposition. For he finds these people agreeable, he finds them sympathetic, whereas people of an entirely opposite nature are repugnant to him, that is, they are antipathetic. Hence, this is the nearest explanation which surely everyone will understand. However, some people’s souls are already more mature when they start earthly life as a human being, who, during their preliminary development in the state of compulsion had subordinated themselves more willingly to all demands, whose resistance has already diminished to a point that they start their life as a human being in a higher state of maturity and thus also reveal more love …. Love will always have a beneficial effect on a fellow human being and will even pacify another person’s very immature spiritual substances, which explains that the former radiates a feeling which is equally described as sympathy and which affects the other person very positively, because such a person is not met with resistance and the influence of less mature people will also always be favourable and, occasionally, even increase their degree of love. Love awakens love in response …. and only entirely immature people will be antagonistic towards a loving person, but then he will also feel disagreeably affected by them …. Besides, all people move within a sphere that corresponds to their maturity, which is felt by a sensitive fellow human. If this sphere is dense due to adverse beings, the person will still be completely subject to the adversary’s influence and will also have an off-putting effect on those who are already further advanced in their development …. no harmony will be possible because the person will resist currents which are in opposition to his endeavours and feelings ….

Thus sympathy and antipathy can only be explained with spiritual currents, for every person has his own sphere in which he is comfortable, and everything that does not correspond to this sphere affects him disagreeably …. Only a few people are so anchored in divine love within themselves already that their emanation is so strong that even immature souls can feel touched by it, and thus don’t offer the former any conscious resistance. The differences of character traits, also being due to the preliminary embodiments, determine the degree of people’s affection or dislike among themselves …. That which one person has long cast off already, can still be present in another to a large extent and also cause a feeling of inner resistance …. But if love has become more dominant in a person he will patiently endure the other person’s failings and bad habits and try to influence him in the most favourable way, which in truth is doing the other person a service, it is a work of neighbourly love of greatest importance …. A person’s sphere of love can have an invigorating effect on the next person and awaken love in him again, and since love is the only means of release from all evil you should even love your enemy, then your life on earth will truly be a blessing for your environment …. You should not withdraw from people you do not find agreeable, instead, try to exert a favourable influence on them …. only avoid them if they are openly hostile towards you, for then they are being used by My adversary in order to make you fall, in which case the time for changing their attitude has not yet come for them. Then your association with them can only be detrimental, for they will not accept anything from you, regardless of whether you want to help them in a spiritual or an earthly way, for the adversary himself is behind them and, feeling it, you should leave them alone and appeal to Me for protection from them. The spiritual being in you, your soul, is more or less affected by currents coming from your fellow human beings, and, as soon as your soul has gained a higher degree of maturity, it will also be pestered by My adversary who uses those people who still belong to him, and then the soul’s resistance will be only too understandable, because it has detached itself from the enemy and doesn’t want to associate with his followers either ….

However, if the soul itself is very loving it can succeed in influencing an immature person so favourably that he will surrender, and then a great work will have been accomplished by love, for which nothing is impossible …. For love is a power which no person can resist forever, it is just that such love is rarely to be found among people on earth …. For this reason it is difficult to love the enemy but not impossible, otherwise Jesus would not have preached about the love of one’s enemy, which requires a high degree of love, but which will also result in great spiritual gain, both for the giver as well as the recipient ….

Amen

Warning against "spiritual leaders" ….

B.D. 8307 from October 23rd 1962, taken from Book No. 87

Whatever impartations from the spiritual world are offered to you can only be purest truth from Me if the knowledge of My act of salvation, of its significance and spiritual reasoning, connected with My human manifestation in Jesus, is made accessible to you, for then you will know…, that I Myself work through My spirit, that they are not just messages from the spirit world which is not yet permitted by Me to teach but which also wants to bring itself to knowledge, yet they are often secluded souls, they are not yet in knowledge themselves, i.e. in the light. However, they have a strong need to communicate with people and to pass on to them what they have represented in earthly life. The bliss of the beings of light consists in the transmission of pure truth, of the stream of light which they themselves are radiated through by Me …. Hence they can also pass on purest truth and are permitted by Me to instruct people who sincerely request the truth from Me …. For these are protected from all erroneous teaching …. Yet the kingdom of the spirits comprises countless souls which have not yet reached perfection on earth, which have already spread much error on earth but in the firm conviction that they stand in the truth …. These do not yet have full light but they do not give up their usual activity on earth …. They also try to influence people’s thoughts from the kingdom of the beyond, especially when the latter voluntarily open themselves to their influence in order to receive spiritual messages, when they establish contact with the spirit world and cannot control themselves which spiritual beings approach them …. It must always be said as their excuse that they want the best but take the wrong path …. that they neglect to turn to Me Myself in an earnest request for truth …. How often do spiritual beings present themselves to them as ‘guides’ and find undivided faith in people who willingly accept everything that is conveyed to them. If these spiritual beings are put to the test, that full clarification about Jesus’ act of salvation is demanded of them, then they will only ever convey what was known to them as human beings on earth, yet the true knowledge of it is alien to them …. And therefore they will never speak of the unity God Jesus either, because this light could not yet shine in them, because they themselves do not yet recognize their God and creator in Jesus …. because they themselves could not yet be permeated by the light of truth. If spiritual teachers are active who are instructed by Me to convey the truth to people, then they will pass on the flow of love-light which emanates from Me and radiates through them to people who are intimately in contact with Me Myself …. But then they will also kindle a true light for them about the act of salvation and My human manifestation in Jesus …. But what a spiritual being does not possess itself it cannot pass on either …. Yet the good will of the receiver also determines the degree of light of the giver who, with the best will in the world, would like to share their knowledge with people on earth and use every opportunity where they can divest themselves. But it must always be emphasized that I do not assign them this task because they are not yet mature enough for instruction in fullest truth, yet their will is not resisted …. My protection, however, consists of not letting those walk in error who sincerely desire purest truth from Me …. But anyone who is satisfied with every gift (transmission) from spiritual beings which he cannot control himself …. who unhesitatingly believes everything he receives from the spirit world, his desire for pure truth is not so strong that he could be protected from error. And again you must therefore make a distinction between the ‘working of the spirit’, between ‘My working in the human being’ …. and the results from the spirit world …. which you hear with your body’s ear through mediums or which you express to your fellow human beings in a mediumistic state ….. And I have given you a sure sign for testing by indicating whether and how you gain knowledge about Jesus’ act of salvation and My incarnation …. And if there is not yet complete clarity about this you also have to be careful with the acceptance of spiritual knowledge, and you can only ever be given the one advice to contact Me directly, as the eternal truth, and to approach Me for this …. And truly, I Myself will introduce you to the truth, as I have promised ….

Amen

Jesus' activity on Earth ….

B.D. 8308 from October 23rd 1962, taken from Book No. 87

When I lived on earth I taught you humans the Gospel of love, for you should develop the love within you into utmost perfection and also be aware of its consequences, which you were able to identify by My activity …. I was only able to heal the sick and perform miracles on account of My indwelling love, which permeated Me completely and subsequently resulted in unity with the Father …. the Eternal Love …. which is the goal of every being created by the Father. Thus I exemplified a life of love to you and only ever treated My neighbourhood with love …. Consequently I was able to teach in all wisdom, I was able to enlighten people’s spiritual darkness since this light of wisdom came forth from the fire of My love. For this reason you humans will only gain realisation when you live a life of love, for love is the flow of divine light which illuminates a person’s heart so that he can attain profound knowledge, which provides clarification about himself and his relationship with God, his Father of eternity …. People spent their lives in complete darkness, their thinking was wrong because their hearts lacked love and thus they lacked the fire which could emit a light …. And I came to them, I came into the midst of the human race, but they did not know Me and rejected the light …. They persecuted and attacked Me because their heartless way of life was also a life of sin. Yet I repaid all evil only with love, I compassionately took care of their suffering, I relieved them from ailments and only ever taught love, because this was the only remedy, both earthly as well as spiritually …. And there were only a few who recognised Me, who followed Me and made an effort to live a life of love, and they became enlightened and joined Me …. because they also recognised in Me the Messiah, the Saviour from severe adversity Who had long been announced to them through prophets. But only a few believed My Words and lived accordingly, who lived with love and were guided through the spiritual darkness into the light …. for the light lived in the midst of them ….

I constantly preached love and, time and again, I will proclaim to people the divine teaching of love, I will present it as being of paramount importance and admonish all people to live a life of love like Me in order to thereby gain the realisation of why they live on earth, what their task consists of and what they should strive for …. As soon as a small glimmer of light has fallen into their hearts, as soon as they unite with Me, as the Eternal Love, through unselfish kind-hearted activity, they will become increasingly more enlightened, they will become more knowledgeable and this knowledge will indeed correspond to truth because I, Truth and Love, are one …. He who lives in love will be united with Me and also know the truth …. He will have stepped out of the spiritual night into the light and all darkness will have left him. Only love can achieve this, consequently the Gospel of love will be proclaimed to you time and again, and any concepts conveyed to you from external sources must always kindle love in your hearts, they must always consist of admonitions to live your life on earth in love. Time and again you must change yourselves into love, you must fight against selfish love and try to change it into unselfish neighbourly love …. I must be presented to you as a God of love, Whom you can only reach through love …. For love is everything …. it is strength and light, it is bliss …. Anyone who lives without love is still burdened by darkness and his earthly path is obscure to him …. Anyone who has shaped himself into love will no longer fear anything, for he recognises his God and Creator as a loving Father and strives consciously towards Him …. Love liberates, it liberates from all bondage, love bestows happiness and grants bliss in abundance …. Love comes from Me and leads back to Me again …. For love connects the child with the Father …. Love grants the greatest happiness while still on earth and then again one day in eternity, for Love is God, It unites Father and child for all eternity ….

Amen

God's answer directly or indirectly ….

B.D. 8309 from October 24th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

Keep to My word which comes to you from above, which I convey to you humans as evidence of My love and grace in the time before the end. This word will give you full enlightenment as soon as you sincerely desire it, for it first teaches you love, and if you fulfil My commandment of love it also means that you will become enlightened and that your thinking will be guided correctly …. so that you will then no longer sin either, because you endeavour to fulfil My will, which you now also recognize …. And if you now also see the right path in front of you through the inner light, then continue on it unwaveringly and don’t let yourselves be diverted from it, don’t listen to those who want to lure you onto another path but know that your path leads to the goal, to Me, Who lures and calls you from above, Whose voice you may hear and Who, as a good shepherd, goes ahead of you to lead you home. Then let the others speak and do not fear their revenge or their threats, for you are truly safe in My care. And you will feel if and when your father speaks to you and follow this voice. This is why I speak to you through the mouth of a human being, because strength and light shall be supplied to you time and again …. And as long as you listen to Me you will also receive strength and light, and you will not need to pay attention to what is offered to you from another side …. For who can instruct you better than I, Who knows everything and can therefore also introduce you to the truth? And thus I also want to take care of all your worries, which you fully entrust to Me …. What you no longer believe you can bear, place on My shoulders, and truly, the burden will become lighter for you until I completely carry it and show you that I am your father and will not leave My children in adversity. And intimately ask Me when you need advice and then listen to the inner voice; pay attention to what your heart tells you to do and everything you undertake will be right: For I place the answer in the heart of every one of My children if he intimately asks Me for it …. only you must also pay attention to what you feel to be right after such a prayer, for then My will is in you and you can no longer want anything wrong, anything sinful, especially if you are filled with love and thus only strive to fulfil My will. And I will certainly come to meet you, everything will work out such that you will recognize My guidance and be happy about My love. Anyone who fully trusts Me will already have his request fulfilled, because I will not let a firm faith fail. And faith only attains this firmness again through love, and love gives light, and now the human being will no longer need to ask because he recognizes the answer within himself. And be certain that nothing you do out of pure, unselfish love, which wants to give, make happy or protect from harm, is sin ….. Such love cannot commit any wrong, because love is divine and all sinfulness is far from it …. For sin is only that which offends against love, because then you offend against Me Myself, Who is love …. And if you are now united with Me through love, you will also do no wrong ….

Amen

Announcement of the end and signs of the time ….

B.D. 8310 from October 25th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

The announcements of a near end seem unbelievable to people, consequently they reject them and also doubt the truth of the spiritual messages I convey to Earth …. And yet it will not take long for these announcements to fulfil themselves, for My Word is truth …. And precisely the fact that people don’t have much time left to change their nature into love causes Me to repeatedly draw their attention to the end and to seriously admonish them to listen to My Word and to live their life accordingly. However, people don’t want to believe and I cannot forcibly affect their thoughts and intentions, I can only ever inform them of that which is about to happen to them and leave it up to their free will as to how they assess and make use of such proclamations. And since the process of the end has never taken place before, since people have no knowledge of this, it is also difficult for them to believe it, even though from the beginning of this earthly period I have indicated this end time and again. Yet they should also take notice of the signs which I foretold as well …. They will notice that the signs are increasing and that, purely from a worldly point of view, a change must come about, for everything is intensifying to an abnormal degree, people find themselves on a level which should make them stop and think …. There is no more love, instead, people outdo each other with heartlessness, living next to each other in harmony no longer exists, people are hostile towards each other and allow free reign to their low instincts and passions, they chase after material goods and do not strive towards any spiritual contact whatsoever …. Like it was at the time of the great Flood, people are only searching for worldly pleasure and even obtain it by unlawful means due to the fact that love has grown cold …. Anyone looking around with open eyes should already recognise the signs of the last days and know that one day restitution will have to come, that one day God’s power and righteousness must come to the fore, if a God is believed in at all. If this faith is completely missing, people will truly have reached a low spiritual level which will also draw in the end of this earth …. Yet from My side nothing else can be done but to repeatedly point out the end, to constantly keep addressing people through the mouths of prophets and seers and to enlighten them about the cause and effect of people’s lives …. but always leaving it up to their freedom of will to grant credence to the proclaimers of My Word or to reject it. Nevertheless, every person’s destiny will proceed faster than you think; all of you will have to experience this time if you are not blessed by being recalled before. My plan of Salvation was established an infinitely long time ago and will certainly be implemented because the time the spiritual beings were granted for releasing themselves from the physical form in this period of salvation has come to an end …. And even the exceedingly short time you have left until the end could still be enough for your final release if only you make your serious will known to fulfil your purpose of life on earth, consciously strive towards Me and appeal for My support to achieve perfection …. For I will truly comply with this serious plea, I will help you in every spiritual adversity and with profound mercy draw you to Me, so that you will not go astray again for an infinitely long time when the end of this earth has come ….

Amen

Unleashed elements of nature ….

B.D. 8311 from October 27th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

I will always and forever care for you, who are still very distant from Me and refuse to take the path back to Me, and full of compassion I look upon humanity which makes no attempt to turn to Me and to renounce My adversary for good. The end of this earth comes constantly closer, which decides all its inhabitants’ future fates …. I let My admonishing voice sound ever more urgently, and an extent of suffering and adversity goes across earth which could truly suffice to change people’s minds, yet most of them remain indifferent as long as they are not affected themselves, and their selfish love grows ever stronger so that they reward themselves with worldly pleasures and barely consider their unfortunate neighbours …. And although more and more accidents and disasters will happen, they even increase the adversities and suffering with their own machinations and thereby drive people into serious difficulties, sin gets out of hand and irresponsible are the actions of the individual person towards his fellow man …. They are so distant from Me that My voice can barely reach them, and thus it will prompt Me to resound loudly from above …. so that they will also experience extreme adversity through the elements of nature, so that they will no longer be able to hold their fellow human beings accountable for that which afflicts them but that they will have to acknowledge that a Power is manifesting Itself Which they themselves cannot oppose. I have to use this last means of force, although even this will not compel them to believe, because people will give themselves all kinds of explanations apart from the one that their God and Creator wants to express Himself in order to be heard by them …. The presence of faith in a God is extremely weak, and even this weak faith will be relinquished by many people in view of the work of destruction caused by the unleashed elements of nature …. And yet I will use this last means because individual people will still find Me when they, in extreme danger, take the path to Me and send a prayer in spirit and in truth to Me …. They will receive help in miraculous ways and then will never want to leave Me again, because they have received My obvious help, but this can only be given to those who call upon Me in spirit and in truth ….

Countless people will lose their lives and will have to replace the earth with the kingdom of the beyond, but they will still have the opportunity to ascend, for the gates to the spiritual kingdom are not closed as yet and for many people it is still a blessing to be recalled from earth. And I truly know the state of their souls, to which extent they are still capable of being taught in the kingdom of the beyond …. However, the survivors on earth will be faced by a time of need which will only be endurable by making use of My strength and help …. For there will be incalculable chaos which you humans will be unable to master on your own, and then it will be shown that My Own will be led through all tribulation because My help for them will be evident …. And they will be able to offer comfort and strength to their fellow human beings too by also referring them to Me, Who alone can improve their situation but Who also wants to be called upon from the bottom of their hearts. This last intervention of Mine before the end will be a greater than great blessing as well, although most people will doubt My love, indeed, even openly deny a God Who lets such a disaster befall humanity. Yet there is not much time left until the end …. Hence everything must be done in advance to spare people the fate of a renewed banishment in the creations of the new earth, because this fate is so appalling that you humans can’t possibly imagine it …. And if I want to protect you from this I will therefore continue to use those means prior to it which still promise a little success, even if you doubt them to be the work of a living God Who is love within Himself …. My only concern is that people will remember Me in their distress, that they will take the path to Me, that they will acknowledge Me in their heart and then not go astray if they are being recalled, for then their ascent in the kingdom of the beyond will also be assured to them. And if they survive the huge natural event they will not relinquish Me anymore, and everyone will still be granted a time of grace until the end during which they can make a decision if they are still undecided. The time is approaching the end, and humanity still has to face many difficulties …. Yet those who believe in Me can calmly await even this time, for they will always receive My help, and this adversity, too, will pass by once it has served its purpose …. For soon I Myself will come and fetch My Own from this earth when the last day has arrived, as it is intended in My plan of eternity ….

Amen

Warning against medial receptions …. "Spiritual Guides" ….

B.D. 8312 from October 28th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

It is understandable that I take care of all people in this last time before the end, that I try to instruct people everywhere and address them as soon as only a receptive heart can be found which lets Me speak to it and passes My address on to its fellow human beings again. It is particularly important to Me that people are admonished to love, because otherwise no salvation from ruin can be expected. And where people come together who cultivate this spirit of love, who live a life of love themselves and try to encourage their fellow human beings to do the same, it will also be possible to send messages to people from above which are only ever intended to encourage people to strive spiritually, to put the world with its demands aside and to strive for the salvation of their souls. And thus I will also be able to make Myself known through the inner word where all prerequisites are present which enable the working of My spirit in the human being. And then only the same truth will ever be conveyed to earth, because people shall walk in the light in order to cover the right path to ascent. Yet My adversary also works and dresses himself in the garment of an angel of light in order to mislead people, and this cannot be warned of enough. And this will be ascertained by such announcements which deviate from the pure truth, which you humans can check at any time. For as soon as I Myself instruct people I will not convey different knowledge to earth than there …. Therefore, as soon as the transmitted spiritual knowledge coincides, I Myself am active …. But if there are contradictions My adversary is at work who fights against the truth in order to maintain darkness. But if people’s will is good they may also know themselves to be protected from the influence of opposing forces, and everything will work out for the souls’ blessing. For the will of the individual is decisive as to whether he is touched by the pure truth and also recognizes it as truth. And the will is good if he gives himself to Me Myself because he strives for unity with Me and makes an effort to live a life of love in unselfishness …. . Then he need not fear falling prey to dark forces, and then he will also be helped in every way …. There is only one thing I have to mention again and again, that people should, if possible, beware of medial receptions …. For even though not every message from the spiritual kingdom received in a mediumistic state need be erroneous, you humans will nevertheless not always have the power of judgement to distinguish error from truth, and this is the danger that you must always fear being misled. For the beings of light, who in special cases also make themselves known through a medium, will time and again try to persuade people to switch off mediumistic reception and consciously request My word, they will point out to you that you only need to shape your heart through loving activity so that I Myself can use it as a receptacle for My spirit and My flow of love strength will then also pour into such a prepared heart. But if ‘spiritual guides’ make themselves known to you in the mediumistic state, you must always be on your guard, for then both the recipient and his environment must be of high spiritual maturity and sincerely desire only the pure truth …. in order to experience the protection of the world of light, which pushes away all unspiritual elements which try to interfere. But you humans should know that My spirit can and will work in every person who fulfils the prerequisites: that he lives a life of love, thereby attains a firm faith and then consciously listens within himself after heartfelt prayer for the supply of the pure truth …. He must earnestly desire the truth so that it will now also be supplied to him through the working of My spirit in him …. But then you will not need any instructions from the spirit world, which is uncontrollable for you …. although the truth can also reach you from there, because the world of light only passes on on My instructions what it receives from Me …. but this should happen again through the spirit in the human being which establishes the connection with the eternal father-spirit …. And spiritual guides, who are active in My will, will always try to encourage you humans to establish the bond with Me yourselves, so that My promise will be fulfilled: „I will send you the comforter, the spirit of truth, who will guide you into all truth ….” and „Whoever loves Me and keeps My commandments, I Myself will come to him and reveal Myself to him ….” Understand that I am always ready to speak to you and to make known to you everything that is helpful for your salvation …. And therefore take the path directly to Me, Who is the eternal truth Myself and wants to set you free from everything that is still part of My adversary who, as the prince of darkness, also seeks to keep you in darkness …. I Myself bring you the light, and accept it and let it shine into your heart, and truly, it will only be for your blessing ….

Amen

God's power current ….

B.D. 8313 from October 29th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

Every bond with Me, every thought that applies to Me, is of greatest blessing for your soul …. I tell you this time and again, for then you will be touched by My flow of strength time and again, because then you will also open yourselves so that this flow can flow into you. You cannot measure what this bond means, after all, it is the conscious turning away from My adversary and return to Me which, as it were, cancels your former sin of apostasy, for your thoughts will only stay with Me if you yourselves want the separation to be lifted …. And then the possibility is also created that My ray of love will strike you again, because then you will no longer reject it …. And to be illuminated by My love again also means that your being will slowly change again into what it was in the beginning: strength of love radiated by Me, thus beings full of love who were immeasurably happy. Believe that every thought turned towards Me makes this illumination of love possible and that your soul has to irrevocably mature on this earth so that it will no longer be denied entry into the kingdom of light …. For to be able to be illuminated by My love again also includes everything else, which is the prerequisite that the gates into the kingdom of light are opened for you …. For you will work in love yourselves because the strength flowing to you from Me impels you to do so, and love will kindle bright light in you so that you can already attain a high degree of realization on earth …. And thus you will also understand Jesus’ act of salvation and fully turn to the divine redeemer Jesus Christ, and this also means that He will open the gates into the kingdom of light for you upon your entry into the kingdom of the beyond. And your purpose of earthly life will only be able to be fulfilled if your soul constantly receives strength from Me …. But the flow of strength from Me necessitates the voluntary opening of your hearts, it necessitates the conscious bond with Me which you establish through thoughts turned towards Me, for no such thought remains unnoticed by Me, you draw Me to yourselves when your thoughts deal with your God and creator, and now I can also guide these thoughts correctly, I can, as it were, take possession of your soul and push the adversary away from you. For then you will give yourselves to Me, and this devotion to Me will then also take place consciously, that you will give your will to Me yourselves, that you want to be seized and guided by Me, that you will mention Me as your guide through this earthly life …. if you ask Me to be your friend and brother, your father, Who walks with you on your pilgrimage path on this earth …. then you can also leave yourselves to Me completely carefree, for then you will also safely reach your goal on earth: complete union on earth with Me …. Then you will have successfully made your way back to the father’s house, you will be with Me again, from Whom you once started …. For this reason every minute of the day you give to Me is blessed, and then you will stay with Me longer and longer, for the strength of love which touches you also has the effect of a desire for My presence, then you will not only lead your earthly life but the spiritual kingdom will be ever more desirable to you, and your earthly life will be increasingly spiritually oriented. Then there will also no longer be any danger that you will sink back and long for the world with its goods. For these no longer tempt you once you were allowed to take possession of spiritual goods which were offered to you in the form of knowledge through the increasing flow of love. And My love will draw you, the impulse for loving activity will grow ever stronger in you, and thus you will also fulfil your purpose of earthly life. For love alone will release you from all bondage, love will free you from all forms, and you can leave the earthly body at the hour of death as mature and enter the kingdom of light and bliss as a free spiritual being, in which you can now create and work in union with Me, as is your destiny ….

Amen

Address to the vineyard workers ….

B.D. 8314 from October 30th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

Anyone who offers to serve Me by participating in the work of salvation as an eager co-worker, by helping to guide erring souls onto the right path, can also truly be certain of My blessing and My help, for this alone is important, that helpers use all their strength to carry out what is necessary but can also only be carried out by people because I cannot and may not work unusually …. otherwise it would truly be easy for Me to inform all people of their God and creator and their purpose of earthly life …. But earthly life is a decision of free will for every human being, and therefore I can only use people again who want to work for Me in My vineyard. For they can accept you but also reject you according to their will, which is not forced into its decision by the transmission of My word through you. And if you now know how urgently I need faithful labourers for Me, because it is the last time before the end and all people no longer have much time to mature on this earth, you can also truly believe that I will help you in every way …. The only prerequisite is that you show the earnest will to carry out this vineyard work …. But if you want to serve Me with all your strength you cannot serve another lord at the same time, you cannot simultaneously fulfil the will of the one who is My adversary and whose endeavour will always be to withhold the knowledge of the truth from people, but which I want to bring to them. Therefore, anyone who serves him cannot serve Me at the same time …. You must take this into serious consideration and also ask yourselves whether and in what way you are willing to serve him …. You must be clear that I cannot and will not support you in an activity which is obviously the adversary’s work, through which he can reap a rich harvest …. How can I agree with this when it is My constant endeavour to liberate people from their worldly desire and to only turn their desire towards the spiritual kingdom? …. This is a battle which every person has to wage against himself and which also costs great strength to overcome, but for this I will always grant My assistance …. But you, who want to serve Me, should also try to achieve the same by causing your fellow human beings to recognize and avoid the dangers of the world …. You should work together with Me but not against Me …. by offering them opportunities to gain insight into My adversary’s realm and increase their desire for the world …. and then you serve two masters, you play one master against the other …. I truly need faithful servants to whom I can assign the work in My vineyard, and I rejoice in every willing co-worker and will bless him, yet I demand his full commitment to Me and cannot approve of him being at the same time at the will of My adversary who will truly try everything to push him away from Me completely because he wants to gain the victory over Me by winning more souls for himself than are saved for Me …. Consider that I, as the father of the house, take care of My servants spiritually and earthly so that they need not suffer any hardship, and have faith in this assurance of Mine …. But also understand My admonitions and warnings, understand all obstacles which get in your way, for I Myself allow them because I want to win you completely for Myself and My kingdom, because I don’t want to hand you over to My adversary, because your work for Me is extremely valuable to Me …. but therefore I also want to possess you undivided …. You shall fully commit yourselves to Me and My kingdom, for there is not much time left, and what you gain earthly you will lose, but the spiritual gain will amply compensate you …. You will come ever closer to My heart, and truly, you will be allowed to feel My love because you prove your love to Me through undivided work for Me and My kingdom. Bear in mind that countless souls are in greatest need …. Reduce this hardship but don’t increase it …. Always remember that I fight for every single soul in order to rescue it from darkness, and therefore you must not plunge it into darkness, but you do so by every favour, by every aid to sin, for people are weak and must be protected where they are in danger of being tempted to sin …. I certainly know that the individual cannot do much against people’s sinfulness, yet he should not himself contribute to the encouragement of sinfulness …. For every individual is responsible for himself …. but whoever causes offence is equally guilty …. You should take this to heart and always endeavour to make contact with Me with a pure heart, then you will also be true servants to Me whom I can count as My own, and you will obviously be allowed to experience My blessing, because I need everyone who wants to serve Me, and then he will truly no longer need to worry, neither about his earthly nor his spiritual well-being, for I always want to be a faithful father to My own ….

Amen

The word from above lights a light ….

B.D. 8315 from October 31th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

You will be granted a direct supply of My word as the greatest gift of grace, and you need only be willing to accept this gift …. You only need to listen to it willingly, i.e. without inner resistance, think it through and live accordingly …. My will will be clearly and simply proclaimed to you, you will be informed why you have to fulfil My will, and you will also be given strength together with My word in order to be able to fulfil My will. And then you will also fulfil your purpose of earthly life and the spiritual success …. the maturing of your soul …. will then also certainly be granted to you. Time and again this is explained to you and yet little attention is paid to My gift of grace, and the result of this is that people go through earthly life without realization and strive for goals which are wrong and dangerous because they lead to the abyss if they are not recognized as wrong soon enough. But no-one can enlighten you correctly about this if I don’t do it or the servants appointed by Me, who were given the right knowledge by Me because they are to transfer it to you if you are willing to accept My instructions. Only I can give you a true picture of all spiritual correlations, only I can give you the knowledge about yourselves and your relationship with Me, your God and creator of eternity, only I can give you the right information about yourselves, what you were, what you are and what you should become again …. And only such truthful knowledge can cause you yourselves to make My will your own and to be willing to live according to this will you have recognized. I do not demand a change of being from anyone who is completely blind in spirit …. I first give him a small light in which he shall and can now find his way. And therefore I Myself constantly endeavour to enlighten people’s spiritual state, for only when they are able to think correctly will they make the right decision, and I want to help them to do so. My adversary plunged you into deepest darkness, but I want to lead you out of darkness into light, for darkness is death but light is life …. And My infinite love wants to give life to everything dead, because life alone is the state of beatitude. You yourselves once voluntarily strayed from Me, and you had voluntarily distanced yourselves from My love, from light and all strength …. thus you became sinful to an extent which you as a human being are incapable of grasping …. And therefore you were completely devoid of all love, light and strength …. And now I give you everything again if only you are willing to accept the gift of My love …. For I convey My word to earth which, as evidence of My infinite love for you, is blessed with My strength, which thus is able to change you again …. i.e. your nature …. so that you come closer to Me again, that light becomes within you and you also make use of My strength, which you may receive through the willing acceptance of My word …. But because the gift of grace of My love may not force you humans to believe, it is offered to you through a human being whom I have chosen as My instrument …. which, however, you can accept or also reject as untrustworthy …. But I must leave this freedom of will to you, for you should freely decide which relationship you now want to establish with Me …. And if your will is good then you will also recognize Me Myself in My word, you will feel by Whom you are addressed and then also fulfil My will of your own accord, that is, you will live a life of love, because I require nothing else but love from you, because you can only redeem yourselves through love. Love is the fundamental principle, and therefore every instruction on My part must only ever result in love being emphasized …. My will must always be recognizable as the fulfilment of the commandments of love. And thus My word conveyed to you from above must also focus on love for Me and for the neighbour, love must time and again be preached to people as a matter of priority, and they must be made aware of both the effects of a life of love as well as the consequences of a loveless way of life, and anyone who now fulfils My will will also soon have a bright light shine for him, and he will recognize himself as a ‘creature’ of God which shall develop into a ‘child’ (‘of God’) on earth, which shall only ever strive towards his father in order to one day be and remain eternally blissfully happy in union with Him ….

Amen

The messengers along the path of ascent ….

B.D. 8316 from November 1st 1962, taken from Book No. 87

I would always place My will into your heart if only you appealed to Me for guidance as to what you should do. Then I will know that you endeavour to fulfil My will at all times and truly, you will not make any wrong decisions. I take care of every single person because everyone needs strength for his path of ascent, yet anyone willing to take this path of ascent must also pay attention to advice as well as the messengers standing by the wayside, for time and again roads branch off from the right path which lead towards the abyss, which must be cautioned against. And precisely these wrong paths are so very enticing at first, they are visually so vivid, so attractive, that the human being will easily be inclined to take them in the hope of ever greater delights …. Yet they lead into the darkest undergrowth from which the traveller can no longer free himself and has to appeal for help. This is why I say to you, pay attention to the messengers by the wayside, who know the right path and whom I Myself send to meet the pilgrims, so that they won’t walk without a guide and go astray. And don’t grumble if the path leads uphill or becomes harder to surmount …. The strength for this will always flow to you, and your will, too, can increase in strength at any time if only you sincerely appeal to Me for more strength …. for this request will truly be granted to you, because I yearn for your return and on My part will do everything to draw you to My heart before long, which has longed for you ever since your apostasy from Me ….

Your earthly process is full of all kinds of temptations …. For My adversary wants to keep you for himself, and he will only ever show you the commodities of this world, you will see a broad, acceptable, exceptionally pleasant road ahead of you promising you the most beautiful goal, which you would take without hesitation if you were not constantly warned by My messengers who are instructed by Me to guide you such that you will find the right path and leave the broad road …. Time and again these messengers call out that you are taking the wrong direction, that you should turn around and take the right path if you want to reach the goal …. if you, at the end of your pilgrimage on this earth, want to reach your Father’s house which truly will provide you with all glories, which will compensate you abundantly for the joys you forgo if you choose the narrow path that leads to this magnificent goal. So listen to these messengers, believe that they are sent to meet you by Me, your Father of eternity, because I love you and want to enable your final return to Me …. Don’t be alarmed by apparent obstacles for they are easily overcome if only you hand yourselves over to your guides who will safely lead you past cliffs and ravines, and then the path will appear to get gradually easier the closer you are to the goal.

For I want to guide you Myself, and with Me you truly will overcome all difficulties, with Me even the steepest path will be easy for you, for you will receive an uninterrupted flow of strength from Me as soon as you entrust yourselves to Me, and you will approach lucid heights and no longer desire to descend …. But you will never be able to reach this goal using the broad road which you travel at the start and which certainly promises you much but irrevocably leads into the abyss, from which you are supposed to work your way up to the pinnacle after all. And even if you cannot decide for a long time to leave this broad road, time and again you will recognise byways and again and again My messengers will call out to you to take these paths in order to reach the goal on account of which you live on earth ….

For I do not stop pursuing you, and I always approach you Myself in these messengers and speak to you through them because I don’t want you to go astray and for the sake of trivial joys forfeit your eternal life which, however, can only be attained if you turn away from the broad road that My adversary has furnished with the most beautiful images and equipped with deceptive lights. Nevertheless, they do not shed any light because he wants to lead you towards the abyss again, from where My love had helped you rise until your existence as a human being, but now you must cover your final path yourselves in free will, for which I indeed offer you My help again which you only need to accept ….

Amen

Fear and misery …. God's intervention – Battle of faith ….

B.D. 8317 from November 1st 1962, taken from Book No. 87

You may take it for granted that you will soon enter the last stage before the end …. For the signs will be noticeable which were predicted in Word and Scripture …. However, under no circumstances will you be compelled to believe it, for every person is free to find his own explanation as to whether it corresponds to the truth or not …. Yet the spiritually minded person knows that a period is coming to an end, and he also knows that a new one will start again, because countless spiritual beings shall still be redeemed which travel the path across earth partly in a constrained state and partly as free beings for the purpose of their return to God …. Everything will take place in lawful order, both the disintegration of the creation as well as the reshaping of the earth, because God’s plan of Salvation has been predetermined for eternity …. And due to your eternal God and Creator’s immense grace you humans who live in the last days are permitted to be informed of what lies ahead of you …. You will be initiated into His plan of Salvation if you want to know the truth about it, and therefore you may receive His Word which in all truthfulness informs you of everything pertaining to the act of creation and deification …. For it is not His will that you should experience the end in complete ignorance because …. if you just possess a small glimmer of realisation …. you will make an effort to fulfil the purpose of your earthly life which entails that you will bring the act of deification to fruition in earthly life and thus reach your goal ….

However, it requires your free will to know the truth, and then you will also be able to believe everything that is conveyed to you humans through the Word of God from above. Then you will also find it credible that the end and a total transformation of the earth is near, for your spirit will explain much to you and all correlations will fall into place …. And thus you will also be able to observe happenings in the world which will have alarming consequences for the whole of mankind …. You will watch how people proceed against each other and the measures all participants take in order to assert their authority …. You will get very frightened, for you humans will be threatened by an exterminatory war of immense proportions, there will be widespread fear which will only bypass the few who completely hand themselves over to their God and Creator, their Father of eternity, and who therefore will be led out of every adversity …. And His guidance will be truly remarkable, for He Himself will intervene …. Yet, instead of diminishing, the tribulation will become much worse, for then people will be faced by and find themselves at the mercy of a natural disaster, a raging of elements, which cannot be humanly prevented, because it is the expression of that Power Which is in control of all forces and Which the elements have to obey in accordance with Its will ….

And this will be the dawning of a time which can truly be regarded as the greatest misery that has ever come across this earth …. but which, again, will not be quite so severely felt by His Own because they may receive God’s extraordinary help at all times …. Yet those who are distant from their God and Creator, who do not believe in His love and wisdom, in His greater than great might, will have to suffer great hardship because they won’t call upon the One Who can help them in their distress …. They will not acknowledge Him and are still of the same opposing spirit as they were at the time of their apostasy from God, and thus they will return to the abyss again, from where they had already raised themselves with the help of God and just had to pass their last test of will in order to be completely redeemed from all guilt. For in the last days a brutal battle will erupt against Jesus Christ, Whom you humans have to acknowledge as God’s Son and Redeemer of the world in Whom God Himself became a human being …. so that you can then enter the spiritual kingdom in a redeemed state …. Yet God’s adversary will declare war on all those who believe in Him, and therefore everyone will have to publicly profess Him before the world …. And only those who have accepted His Word which was transmitted to earth from above will be able to profess Him, for they will recognise the truth and know Who Jesus Christ was and why He has to be acknowledged, and they will remain faithful to Him until the end and belong to those who will be carried away when the day of the end has come …. The battle of faith will be the last test of endurance for you humans, but which you who know the truth will be able to pass …. This is why God time and again conveys His Word to earth, so that all people can partake of the truth in order to also uphold it before the world during the final battle of faith, for only the truth will provide them with the information about Jesus Christ, and only faith in Him will give you the strength to persevere until the end …. until He comes Himself to fetch you into His kingdom ….

Amen

Transience of the earthly …. Intercession for souls ….

B.D. 8318 from November 2nd 1962, taken from Book No. 87

Time and again you humans can observe the transience of all earthly things and already see from this that earthly goods are worthless for eternity, for you cannot take any of them over into the kingdom of the beyond if you have to leave your earthly body. And since you don’t know the hour of your death, which the very next day can bring you, you should not use your life’s energy for the acquisition of earthly goods but only to acquire eternal goods which will follow you into the kingdom of the beyond as spiritual wealth. Then you would truly act wisely, you would fill your lamps with oil and then no longer need to fear darkness. And time and again you will be confronted by the transience of all earthly things, time and again you will experience the recall of people from this life, time and again you will see material goods abandoned to destruction; time and again you will be able to experience that nothing belonging to this world will last …. Your body will pass away, just as everything earthly-material passes away …. But your soul has no offence to fear when it escapes from the earthly body …. It is the spiritual substance which can never pass away again because it is once emanated strength from Me which will continue to exist for all eternity. Only its state can be completely different at the death of the body …. It can enter into light and strength and freedom to live forever, but it can also remain in the state of death for eternal times …. And the fate of the souls is determined by you humans yourselves during your earthly life, for you can use the life energy given to you of your own free will, both for the body as well as for the soul, so that it will attain life and need not fear death, which will then be its fate if the human being leaves the soul in want during his earthly life, if he does nothing to help it to live, if he only tries to provide the body with the goods of the world, which are transient. Then the soul will enter the kingdom of the beyond after the death of the body in poverty and destitution, in a state of powerlessness and bitterest misery ….. For it cannot take anything it acquired on earth with it, it does not enter a kingdom of light but moves in utmost darkness and is only dependent on the loving help of the beings of light which, however, it does not recognize as such and therefore usually rejects them …. And then only the loving intercession of people on earth can help it to gain enough strength to strive for an improvement of its pitiful situation. Such a soul has to pay dearly for the world’s goods, for they have plunged it into great misery because the body took precedence over the soul, but the soul now has to bear the consequences. If you humans could see the appalling misery of such souls you would truly take pity on them and not deny them help in order to bring them relief in their situation …. And you can only do this through loving intercession which you give to them, which they feel as a grant of strength and they give up their will of rejection …. Then the beings of light which approach them unrecognized will also be heard sooner, and they can slowly come to realize what they neglected to do on earth …., for souls which are followed into eternity by intercession on the part of people will not be lost, because every loving intercession is a ray of strength and this strength can never ever be lost, thus it exerts a positive effect on those souls …. Therefore remember all souls which still languish in darkness and lovingly take care of them …. Help them through your prayer so that they will not sink any further, for your prayer protects them from this …. They will feel an intercession in love as a strengthening of will and also as small sparks of light which they follow and thus reach you who remembered them in prayer. And they will also always stay close to you, hoping for renewed supply of strength and light …. For this reason you humans can contribute much to the redemption of the souls in the spiritual world if you consciously try to help them, if you deal with their adversity and try to alleviate it, if you also bring My word close to them, which they can now hear if only they are willing to improve their condition, if they feel a flow of love from you and know that you take care of their adversity …. Admittedly, their resistance, which they still possessed to a great extent on earth and therefore did not accept spiritual help on earth, first has to be broken through loving intercession. But the person who loves his body excessively so that he only helps it to prosperity will also be inaccessible to spiritual instructions, and this is the soul’s great hardship that it was deprived of spiritual nourishment and that it enters the kingdom of the beyond in a dreadful state without it. Yet people’s love can alleviate much hardship …. a prayer of love for these souls will truly help them up from the dark realm and the soul will also be able to ascend in the beyond as soon as it is always granted assistance by the beings of light and people on earth ….

Amen

Only love is bliss ….

B.D. 8319 from November 3rd 1962, taken from Book No. 87

Having to do without My love is the most wretched state a being, which created My love, can find itself in. Yet it created this state for itself because it rejected My love, which is radiated to every being without limitation, until it resisted Me and closed itself to all illumination of love on My part. Then the unhappy state set in, which the being will remain in until it voluntarily opens itself again and lets My love radiate into it …. To be without My love is a state of death, a state of lifelessness and a state of deepest darkness. That I do not want to leave the creatures, which once came forth from My love, in this unhappiness is guaranteed by My endless love …. For it followed the being even into the deepest depth and will not rest until the being has ascended again from that depth with My help …. until it has regained the self-awareness it had lost in the depths …. and now, as an I-conscious being, voluntarily opens itself to receive My ray of love. And time and again it has been proclaimed to you through My word that this process of illumination with love can only take place on My part if you yourselves make an effort to live in love …. if you therefore voluntarily accomplish the change back to love, just as you once voluntarily relinquished love. At the beginning of your embodiment as a human being you are still unaware of the bliss of giving and receiving love, for your ego is only self-centred, self-love is still strongly developed, which My adversary implanted in you and which was the reason for your apostasy from Me …. Self-love certainly makes itself happy but it does not create a state of bliss, for self-love is not of divine origin but belongs to My adversary. But as soon as you try to change selfish love into unselfish neighbourly love, into giving, selfless, wanting-to-gratify love …. you will also feel the bliss of the activity of love, for you then establish the bond with the eternal love through your activity of love, and this bond must also irrevocably bring you bliss, because then I can shine upon you again as it was in the beginning …. For whatever comes forth from Me must cause bliss, because I am love Itself, which only ever wants to bestow bliss and which will not rest until the work of returning all fallen beings to Me is finished. Although you humans on earth should always remember that you are infinitely loved, that you are loved by the highest and most perfect being, by the greatest spirit of infinity, Whose children you shall become and Who one day wants to create and work with you as your father, for your and also your own happiness …. You should feel this awareness of being loved with all intimacy strongly in your heart and already be blissfully happy about it, for then you will also voluntarily hand yourselves over to Me, you will desire My love and long for the happiness of a union with Me …. And then your return to Me is also guaranteed, for love draws to itself what it desires …. You humans on earth must therefore learn to recognize your God and creator as a being Which wants to be your father and is love itself in supreme perfection …. If you know about My nature, then you will also consciously connect with Me …. And therefore I also want to send you the knowledge about it time and again, and I speak to you about it, I convey My word from above to you in order to introduce you to the great mystery of My being, which you will only be able to love when you know that it itself is love …. Time and again My adversary will distort My image, he will try to portray Me to you as a God of vengeance, as a strict judge and as a merciless being Who condemns but does not redeem …. Yet the pure truth will always come to you from Me because I love you and also want to win your love. And love is truly stronger than hatred, and thus My greater than great love will also succeed in illuminating you as My living creations again, in igniting love in yourselves, and then the unification with Me will also come about one day, which is the purpose and goal of your earthly progress but which has to come about of your own free will, which is why you yourselves can prolong the time of separation from Me …. But I will always help you to take the path back to Me, and I will use all means which …. even if they seem painful to you …. are nevertheless based on My infinite love and will one day also lead safely to the goal …. For you came forth from My love and will also safely return to eternal love again ….

Amen

Supply of food and drink through the divine word ….

B.D. 8320 from November 4th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

I constantly supply your soul with food and drink, the nourishment it needs to become blissful, as soon as you come to My table, so that I may have supper with you …. I, as your God and creator of eternity, uphold everything that has emerged from My hand; I safeguard the life and existence of all My creations, yet I turn My greatest concern towards the beings which once fell away from Me and are therefore in an unhappy state until they have returned to Me again, which has to happen of their own free will, because the apostasy from Me also took place of their own free will …. And when this being on its return to Me has reached the stage of free will again …. which it regains after an infinitely long state in bound will as a human being …. I take special care of it, for at the beginning of its embodiment as a human being it is a miserable creature which needs My help in order to mature and shape itself such that I can accept it again and admit it into My kingdom of light and bliss. Thus it must constantly receive nourishment from Me, it must be fed and watered, for the soul of this returning being is …. sick and weak, it needs strengthening, it needs a healing medicine, it needs much love on My part which gives it everything it needs to mature until the death of its body. And My love also supplies it with everything, My love gives it the right nourishment every day, My love imparts strength and light to it so that it can recover and attain maturity which results in its union with Me, and then its earthly life will have been successfully completed …. that it can finally unite with Me again and be immeasurably happy again, as in the beginning. The daily nourishment offered to it by Me is My word, for as soon as I Myself address the soul it can be supplied with light and strength at the same time, and it need only voluntarily accept My gift of love and grace, it need only approach My table and let itself be fed and watered by Me, yet without My word it will not be able to mature, for just as the body requires food and drink for its structure, so does the soul …. only that it, because it is a spiritual being, also requires spiritual food. And spiritual nourishment can only be offered to it by Me Myself …. even if it does not receive it directly but is conveyed to it through My messengers …. But this nourishment always originates from Me, for it is strength of love which flows forth from the divine source and which inevitably helps the soul to attain perfection if it willingly accepts My gift …. if it listens to My word and also lives it out …. if it thus evaluates food and drink in the right sense. And because the soul …. once it has gone forth from Me …. can never pass away again, therefore its state shall also be a blessed one. It should not be a state of poverty and misery in which it cannot enjoy its being but it should be able to create and work in light and strength and freedom and must also be able to do so, thus it must have attained a degree of strength and light itself which makes it a divine being. And therefore it must always be in closest union with Me and establish this bond already on earth, which its free will must decide to do itself, but then light and strength will also flow to it unmeasured in the form of My word, which truly can be called bread from the heavens, a water of life, because it gives the soul everything it needs in order to reach perfection. This concern of My love prompts Me to constantly speak to it, to constantly convey My word from above, for all people are in such a state that they need direct help from Me …. They are all more or less in need of strong nourishment, and without such they cannot mature and thus achieve their purpose of earthly life …. Yet it depends on the willingness of each individual soul whether it accepts My food offered to it, whether it partakes of the supper with Me, whether it allows itself to be fed and watered by Me or turns down the invitation to come to My table and passes by a source of grace of My love …. But one day it will bitterly regret it when it has arrived in the kingdom of the beyond and will look over the many unused opportunities which its free will let pass by …. And it will never be able to make up for what it missed in earthly life, even though an ascent will still be possible for it but it will be far more difficult for it than on earth. But as long as the human being lives on earth I will offer him My word, for every soul shall be fed and watered, every soul shall be satiated which only desires nourishment in order to perfect itself ….

Amen

Freedom from the enemy only through Jesus Christ ….

B.D. 8321 from November 5th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

There is only one means to become free from all bondage, the voluntary turning to Jesus Christ …. the divine redeemer …. He alone has the power to give you freedom, for He paid your jailer the ransom for you and he can now no longer keep you bound if you desire freedom yourselves …. But the latter is decisive, for it is up to you yourselves which master you want to turn to …. But to remain with him also means to languish again in the captivity of the one who is without love and who only prepares an unhappy fate for you …. But if you want to become blessed again, as you were in the beginning, you must detach yourselves from him and hand yourselves over to Jesus Christ, you must accept His redemption and thus avail yourselves of all the blessings He purchased for you on the cross …. You must appeal to Him for strength of will, because this is necessary since the enemy of your souls had weakened your will and therefore the ascent to the height would be difficult for you if the divine redeemer did not give your will the necessary strength. He has overcome the adversary, He has wrested the souls of those from him who themselves want them to become free …. And He paid the purchase price for these souls through His death on the cross. The soul of Jesus of an original spirit who had not fallen …. pitied the great need of the fallen brethren, and offered Itself to God as a sacrifice of atonement to redeem their guilt …. The soul of Jesus, a pure being of light, descended to earth and took abode in the midst of sinful humanity in the will to bring freedom to this humanity, since it languished in the fetters of the adversary and was incapable of its own salvation …. But the path of a soul of light in the dark earthly world could not have been covered by it if it had not had love within itself which gave it strength, for love is strength …. Love, however, is also the primal element of God, the father, from Whom that spirit of light also emerged …. Thus He so arranged Himself as the human being Jesus that He was completely filled with love …. which also means that the eternal love Itself completely permeated Him and thus took abode in His human cover …. His body contained the eternal Deity Itself, Which can only be imagined as love …. And this love now accomplished the work of redemption on earth …. Love Itself redeemed the guilt by causing the man Jesus to sacrifice Himself for humanity in order to offer a work of atonement to the father through which they became free from that guilt …. Love therefore fought against the enemy and defeated him …. He had to hand over the captives, he had to set them free because the purchase price had been paid for them. And thus every person who accepts Jesus’ act of salvation, who recognizes and acknowledges the father Himself in the divine redeemer and now freely turns his will towards Him, just as he once freely turned away from Him …. He only has to want to become free from the enemy of his soul and ask Jesus for help, he has to take the path to the cross himself with his guilt of sin and ask for forgiveness, then he will also be accepted and his guilt will be redeemed, he will have escaped captivity and been seized by Jesus Christ Himself, Who will also safely lead him into the kingdom of light which was previously closed to beings who became sinful through their apostasy from God. To become free from God’s adversary is an exceedingly great grace which, however, the human being only needs to request because thereby he testifies to his will to be redeemed and to return to the father again …. And this will of his will will be complied with, for it is only about the change of will, it is only about the recognition of God in free will, which was once denied to Him. The adversary knows that he will lose his adherence through Jesus Christ’s act of salvation, and therefore his constant endeavour will be to withhold the knowledge of it from people or to destroy all faith in it. And therefore God, in turn, constantly endeavours to convey the knowledge to people in all truth, so that people will now also correctly evaluate their freedom of will, so that they will recognize the meaning and purpose of the act of salvation and now consciously take the path to the cross, because it is the only path which leads to the gate of the kingdom of light, which only Jesus Christ can open …. But He has no other goal than to make people blissfully happy, and therefore He will time and again step into people’s path and present His greater than great work of mercy to them …. And blessed is he who recognizes Him and gives himself to Him, for he will become free from every bondage, he will be able to get rid of every bondage because Jesus Christ Himself will loosen it for him in His love ….

Amen

“Do not worry about what you eat and drink ….”

B.D. 8322 from November 6th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

Again and again I would like to call out to you humans: Do not worry about what you will eat and drink and with what you will clothe yourselves …. but seek first the kingdom of God, everything else will be given to you …. You must never forget that you live on earth for a purpose: to take the path back to Me, which has to happen consciously by seeking Me Myself, by doing everything to unite with Me in order to establish the contact which characterises the relationship of a child to its father …. You shall seek Me Myself and My kingdom …. This is the only purpose of earthly life, because it is not about the well-being of your body but about the well-being of your soul, which is everlasting …. For this purpose I gave you existence as a human being, and therefore it is quite understandable that I will also sustain you, that I will cover all the body’s needs if you give priority to the soul’s needs, if you fulfil your true purpose of earthly life. I am your father and show you immense love which wants to make you happy for all eternity and which endeavours to ensure that you reach the degree of maturity on earth which will result in such bliss for you …. But I am also your God and creator …. I know what you need, not only spiritually but also earthly …. And if I have created you …. if I enable you to walk the earth as a human being, I will also see to it that you are ordered in such a way that you can fulfil your actual task …. I will not demand something from you for which the prerequisites are lacking …. For I know that your body needs many things in earthly life and I will truly give them to it …. But I only set one condition for this, that you first seek My kingdom, that your soul’s task is of utmost importance to you and that you put the care for your body aside, so that you will now also experience the evidence of My fatherly love: that I take care of you and give you everything you need …. And truly, you could go through your earthly life completely carefree if you take this promise of Mine to heart and only fulfil My demand to remember the soul first …. And thus you must fulfil My will, which is repeatedly announced to you through My word: You must live in love, you must only ever try to overcome your self-love and perform works of love in complete unselfishness …. you must give, want to make your neighbour happy, do everything to help him or protect him from harm …. For if you practise love then you unite with Me, then you also establish contact with My kingdom where only love exists, where I Myself reign, Who is love …. And if you live in love then you will also live a life of justice, for you cannot help but give everyone around you what is due to him …. You will not tolerate injustice because it contravenes the commandment of love, you will completely enter into My will and then also be true aspirants of My kingdom …. But your earthly life will run smoothly because I Myself will take care of you and your physical life, because I will sustain you, nourish and clothe you, just as I take care of everything that exists in creation, because My nature is love, wisdom and power …. And should I not then also be able to take care of all your worries, since everything is possible for Me? …. believe it, that every promise of Mine will come true if only you also fulfil the conditions under which I have made a promise …. I truly stand by My word, and therefore you can also firmly rely on the fact that no worry needs to burden you as soon as it is only your endeavour to come closer to Me and My kingdom, as soon as you are only willing to do everything to enable your soul to mature on earth, for only for this purpose do you walk across earth …. And as soon as you establish the right relationship with Me …. the relationship of a child with its father …. I will also take care of you in a fatherly way and give you everything so that you will not need to live in want during your earthly life …. But if you don’t observe My promise you will truly also be destined for a life on earth where you won’t get out of worries and hardship. But then it is your own fault because you don’t believe what I Myself promised you when I lived on earth, where I experienced everything Myself as a human being and therefore also knew about all your hardships which I wanted to remedy …. but then I also demand of you that you comply with My will and first strive for the maturing of your soul …. in order to then also receive everything your body needs ….

Amen

Sermons of love …. Suffering and hardship shall awaken love ….

B.D. 8323 from November 7th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

The fact that people pay so little attention to the commandments of love is not because they don’t know about My will which only demands loving activity from them, but it is rather because they don’t ignite the (smouldering) spark of love resting in them so that it becomes a flame …. It is because they are mostly only concerned about themselves, that their own ego is so important to them that they only turn their thinking, wanting and acting towards themselves, that they try to achieve everything for themselves that is available in terms of comfort. They are no strangers to the commandment of love for God and their neighbour, moreover, they also know from experience that a work of love has a beneficial effect on them, and they could therefore also give love to their neighbour out of their own impulse ….. Then the spark of love would also flare up in them, and that also means establishing a connection with Me, their God and creator of eternity. My adversary, however, has great influence on every person who has not yet released himself from self-love, and he will always influence the person to prevent him from practising love …. For then he will also prevent him from any kind of bond with Me, Who am love Myself. Therefore, his influence can only be counteracted if My commandments of love are preached to people time and again, if the effects of a right life of love as well as the consequences of a loveless life are presented to them, if they are admonished to educate themselves to consciously put their ego aside and to increase their care for their neighbour in all unselfishness …. For this reason the preaching of My gospel of love is of great importance, even though it is not gladly heard by those who persist in their self-love and thus are still completely under the influence of the one who is devoid of all love. Yet without love no human being can fulfil his earthly task, without love no human being can achieve perfection on earth, without love no human being can become blissfully happy, for without love he is a dead being, even though he still lives on earth as a human being. But he will lose this physical life and then his soul will enter the kingdom of the beyond completely dead, it will be powerless and completely darkened in spirit and therefore also wretched. It is only on earth for the sole purpose of changing its nature into love again, as it had been in the beginning when the essence came forth from Me …. And if the human being does not achieve this change in earthly life then he has travelled the earthly path in vain and can also sink back into deepest darkness again …. But only love can bring him success, for love is light, and in the light he will also recognize everything and know about My infinite love and wisdom, and he will try to unite with Me Myself in love. And therefore I can only try to persuade people to love through suffering and hardship so that they feel touched by their neighbour’s adversity and help him or experience love themselves which awakens reciprocated love. For I cannot force anyone to love …. These commandments must be fulfilled in all freedom of will, for forced love is not love …. Yet every human being is capable of love because I place a spark of My eternal god-spirit …. in every human heart. My primal element …. and because it therefore only requires the will to kindle this spark. However, the fact that love has completely grown cold amongst people in the last days is also a reason for the turning point which will take place on this earth, for without love no human being will progress in his development, without love the purpose of earthly life will no longer be fulfilled, and thus the earth will have lost its purpose for people for whom it was intended to serve as a maturing station …. And therefore it will experience a total transformation so that the spiritual substances bound in the creations will also receive new deformations and can cover the course of development. But the last deformation on this earth will always …. the existence as a human being …. must achieve a transformation into love if the final purpose on this earth is to be achieved, if the soul is to attain that beatitude again which is its destiny and which is only ever possible through the transmission of love on My part ….

Amen

People's attitude towards Mary, the mother of Jesus ….

B.D. 8324 from November 8th 1962, taken from Book No. 87

I Am always willing to answer when you are moved by spiritual questions, for you, who are intended to spread the truth from Me, must also know the truth yourselves, you must be able to differentiate between error and truth …. And therefore a light has to be kindled where you are still dark in spirit, where ambiguity still exists …. For you should know that one misguided teaching will repeatedly lead to new errors …. Time and again explanations were given to you about people’s attitude towards Mary, the earthly mother of My body, in the sense that she can certainly be called the most revered being in My kingdom of light to whom you humans may also grant your love yet always with the reservation that she, due to her high spiritual degree of maturity, dwells in My kingdom as a ‘child of God’, in which I Myself reign as God and Creator, as Father, as the primary source of light and strength, as the highest and most perfect spirit in eternity ….

Hence she, having been a living creation, returned to Me as My child …. whereas I Am the Creator Myself and therefore would like to receive unlimited love from you humans …. which you will also grant to Me when you have completely entered into My will and wholeheartedly yearn for unification with Me …. I want to possess this unlimited love of yours and all beings in My kingdom of light, who love Me just as intimately, will only ever endeavour to so influence people that they will turn towards Me …. But at no time ever will they encourage people’s love to look for a different goal than Me …. which, however, happens when a being of light enjoys exceptional veneration from people which should only be given to Me …. And for this reason no being of light will ever appear to people in a way which will cause fervent worship. For an appearance like that would only strengthen a wrong teaching, such as the veneration of ‘Mary, the mother of God’ has to be regarded, which established itself in people.

I Myself would never encourage and support misguided teachings …. And since all beings of light have completely entered into My will and also know how such misguided teachings disadvantage the human beings’ souls, no such attempt will ever be undertaken on part of the beings of light, but My adversary will indeed use precisely such wrongly directed faith and try to fortify it with apparitions of which he is the originator himself …. For as soon as he succeeds in diverting people’s attention ever more towards ‘strange gods’ he is displacing Me Myself, Who wants to be the only goal of people’s desire …. Using cunning and trickery My adversary will try anything in order to lead people into wrong thinking and, understandably, can work best where misguided teachings have already prepared the ground to receive his poisonous seeds ….

Time and again My love, wisdom and might revealed themselves by conveying My Word, so that people were introduced to the truth. And My adversary works in the same way by seeking to gain people’s belief through announcing events which he is very well aware of …. And since I Myself cannot work directly in people who have built on his foundation he influences them through works of deception, and people don’t recognise them as the adversary’s work of deception since he does not shy away to appear in the disguise of one of the most elevated beings of light, because behind this mask he has access to them. The fact that in special cases spiritually fully mature human souls are capable of spiritual vision is not disputed, yet as soon as it concerns transmissions which are intended to be made to people on My part for the salvation of their souls it happens by way of a direct revelation through the spirit, but which then also involves the task of passing these revelations on to fellow human beings …. However, such revelations will never be given to underage children forbidding them to speak about them. From this alone people should deduce the originator of such apparitions …. During the time of the end My adversary has great power, and he truly uses it well ….

And his influence will also take root wherever error exists, the error will be ever more strengthened, and the fact that you humans are offered error is evidenced in that, time and again, precisely that being of light is placed into the forefront which would like to use all its influence only such that it will guide people towards Me as the divine Redeemer, because it knows in what bondage they languish and that they can only find deliverance through Jesus Christ …. Such apparitions, however, only ever succeed in providing extraordinary momentum for the adoration of God’s mother …. which is also My adversary’s will: that people create strange gods for themselves in order to worship them …. A large structure of lies has been erected and its walls keep getting ever stronger …. but which can only be destroyed by the pure truth which is conveyed from My side to earth …. And anyone who desires to know the truth will also clearly understand and be able to differentiate between lies and truth …. He will appeal to Me Myself for clarification, and I will truly not withhold the truth from him ….

Amen
