All forces in nature unite to work for the lord …. Seemingly arbitrarily, one event follows another, but it is in the will of the one Who directs and guides everything, and all the forces of nature obey this divine will. In view of this fact, all natural processes only take on their true meaning. Whoever regocnizes the visible will of the lord in this is now also able to regocnize the greatness of what will now come upon the earth. An eternal change of all natural processes and yet again the regular return of these leads to the false assumption that nature in itself determines its laws, that therefore an event is always the consequence of a previous one …. which in a certain respect cannot be denied. However, every event is foreseen in the plan of the divine world order; one is indeed naturally the consequence of the other, but only because the lawgiver from eternity has inserted His law into the existing world order in precisely this way and no other, so that everything is therefore conditioned by His will. And this will, in turn, corresponds entirely to the state of maturity of everything spiritual that creation harbours for the purpose of perfection. To bring this state to perfection is the purpose of all events in the entire universe …. And all natural events, of whatever kind, are always only the means to this end, and from this again it clearly emerges that forces of the underworld, the opposing power, can never be at work in every event that comes to light in God’s work of creation, be it constructive or destructive. The activity of the eternal deity can always be regocnized in this, Who allows nothing to happen arbitrarily, i.e. without any wise intention. Anyone who looks at all natural processes in this sense will also be able to regocnize that only divine love is the driving force behind everything that happens, for it is only because the creator loves His creatures dearly and wants to enable them to become perfect that He has created countless possibilities which all serve this one purpose. Consequently, there is nothing in the world that would be pointless or even have any other purpose than to serve this maturing of the spiritual. And thus every disaster, no matter how painful its effect, only has to be considered in this sense, and only the creator’s profound love has to be regocnized in it, Who has to resort to such means precisely because the spiritual substance partly has to be redeemed from its solid form and partly allows itself to remain unredeemed through its own will and thus has to be remedied, because all sojourn on this earth only aims at a state of perfection, a maturing of the spiritual substance ….

Amen

It is extraordinarily advantageous to establish a true spiritual communication with the friends of the beyond, for it promotes the soul’s maturity soul within a far shorter time. All spiritual faculties will more or less be employed and thus used properly, and this strength benefits the earthly child, for it considerably alleviates its own struggle for psychological maturity, and it will find limitless support on the part of the spiritual beings, which take an interest in supporting the earthly child in every battle, spiritually as well as worldly. Thus, such contact from the earth to the beyond offers an indescribable advantage and yet it is hardly noticed and valued …. Once someone has taken this path and placed himself under the protection of the spiritual guides he will be completely shielded against any spiritual relapse, he only needs to confirm his will in order to be well taken care of and then his earthly life will not be so difficult anymore, since all the burdens the human being has carried so far will be willingly shared by the guardians and not be felt as much by the person if he requests help from the spiritual guide.

And thus it follows that in this time of suffering on earth the spiritual beings are especially very busy and active …. that they are trying everything in order to spiritually influence the human being’s thinking and thereby make his life easier and thus act as true spiritual guardians. Such contact is good in every sense, after all, it comprehensively informs a person, thereby strengthening and enlivening his faith and thus contributing in every respect towards the fact that the person willingly disassociates himself from matter and eagerly involves himself with spiritual matters. Hence it is understandable that the spiritual beings very much like and welcome it when such a contact from earth to the beyond has been initiated and so doubly endeavour to always instruct the earthly child in a way that it will not tire or become weary in its decision to work its way up to perfection. It depends on the teachers as to whether a person’s will then concentrates more on spiritual life, and that therefore threads will be established from the earth to the beyond which will survive every earthly crisis and which thus will have to take entirely different paths from that which affects the person in times of such earthly adversity. The human race is so very extensively influenced by the blessed spiritual beings, and they gladly accommodate even the slightest will, that such gifts from above should also be received with utmost joy, for one day people will realise how far more valuable it is to know this extraordinarily perfect information; they will ever more eagerly look for contact, for the light beings’ love is so concerned about the afflicted human race that on its part it does the only thing it can do …. it provides the earthly child with strength in abundance, and anyone who uses this strength will never be able to descend again, neither physically nor spiritually ….

Amen

The picture of spiritual disintegration will become clearly visible at the dawn of the day when the great disaster strikes this earth. In times of danger people used to take refuge in God …. In this disaster, however, only a tiny fraction of humanity will remember Him, Who alone can bring salvation, and thus the low spiritual level will be obviously recognisable by the despair of people who don’t know where to turn for rescue. And this is precisely why it is necessary for this affliction to come upon people, as it can still change their thinking to some extent, because the adversity will be inconceivable and earthly help entirely impossible. Someone who lives with faith will not be frightened by the disaster to the same degree as the unbeliever, since he will always willingly hand himself over to his God and Father anyway. Yet there are only few of them, and these few will be unable to penetrate and induce the hearts of people into profoundly heartfelt prayer. Their obstinacy is so great and their arrogance even greater and these two are insurmountable obstacles for humble submission and appeals for mercy. The more furiously the elements rage the harder and more stubborn will be the spirit of those in the midst of it. And yet the Lord will take care of the few Who remember Him …. He will reward their faith so that they will give thanks and sing His praises, for the Lord will not abandon His Own, and He will lead them to peace and true life in eternity if they have to relinquish their earthly life, profess the Father and commend themselves to His mercy.

And so, do not feel sorry for those who have to surrender their life in faith …. bear in mind that He Who gives life can also take it away again …. and likewise, that He Who takes it away can also restore it again, yet far more beautiful and joyful than the most pleasant earthly life can be. Hence do not doubt God’s love, mercy and justice …. Indeed, many innocent people will have to suffer with the guilty ones, yet they will be compensated for a thousand fold, since it has, after all, to be endured for the sake of so many misguided people. And, in fact, the wise Deity has also created a balance elsewhere insofar as the country of the disaster will become extraordinarily fertile precisely because of this event …. and the people who survived by the grace of God will dedicate their lives to the Lord and thus will truly live for and within the Lord and also fight for His name. And this time will be the beginning of spiritual change, everything will be united through love and one person will lovingly help the other, and they will recognise God’s love, omnipotence and wisdom; their deeds and thoughts will be right before God and the Lord will look with pleasure upon everyone who found his way to Him through suffering and is then of service to Him with all his heart ….

Amen

The power of evil over the human soul is immense and has a terrible effect …. If it is not resisted by man, it poisons all his thoughts and feelings and the spiritual state that currently dominates the earth makes itself felt. The spiritual state of humanity is clearly expressed by the events of our time. Humanity rages against each other without mercy, and without insight it fights each other and does not regocnize its spiritual state …. it does not give an account of what lies at the root of humanity’s boundless misery …. Everyone has only himself and his advantages in mind and does not shy away from appalling means in order to exploit this advantage. And all compassion, all mercy has disappeared among mankind. Only hatred and discord prevail on earth, the commandment of love is completely disregarded and no-one regards his neighbour as God’s creature …. It has become an almost unstable state, a raging among each other that eclipses everything that has gone before …. And who brought about this depravity among people? Who was the cause of this immense spiritual decay of the whole of humanity? It lacks the will to resist, it lacks the strength to offer resistance against the onslaught of this very evil power …. Man could overcome every temptation if he would ask for the necessary strength, but he does not desire it, he carelessly passes by where the strength to resist is offered to him and is available to him unmeasured …. He switches God off, so to speak, and believes that he does not need His support, and the consequence of this is that he is no longer a match for the evil power …. The consequence of his arrogance is the deep fall, for the opposing power wrestles down the will, it first weakens it in order to finally render the human being completely without will, and then his strength is no longer great enough to free himself from the enemy’s shackles if he endeavours to escape it …. For he lacks a saviour, he lacks support in adversity. And if you humans now consider how firmly the adversary holds you in his hands, how he has complete control over you, you must now look for a way out of the captivity into which you have brought yourselves …. you must still turn to Him in the last hour Who can deliver you from every adversity and danger …. and you will truly not make a wrong request …. He will strengthen you with His strength, He will guide your thoughts towards the right realization, and He will support everyone who repentantly regocnizes his previous wrong thinking in his striving for truth, for the right …. In every spiritual weakness He gives you strength to resist, and He wrestles as it were with the adversary for every person’s soul …. And the lord sends His messengers so that they may tell of God’s love and warn the unbelievers or strengthen those who are weak in faith, so that they may be guided by their realization in the battle with the adversary, so that they may take the right path and indeed turn to the father in heaven for help, Who will truly not deny it to them …. They only have to sacrifice their will to the eternal deity, they must not want what appears to them to be the only desirable thing but only think of the salvation of their souls, and thus they must also be willing to detach themselves from the world which had dominated them until then. And if this were achieved without severity and violent measures, the judgement would remain averted, but for those who are hardened and hard-hearted the voice will resound more forcefully and the hardship on earth will provide the clearest proof of this, that God will not allow Himself to be mocked and that He therefore allows the events to come upon earth and its inhabitants, as it were as a last call from above, so that He either pulls humanity back from the abyss or announces its eternal downfall, for this is the only means which can still remedy the spiritual hardship on earth ….

Amen

Just as worldly wisdom tries in vain to find an explanation as to which power controls the interior of the earth, it will also never be able to analyze these powers and will therefore attempt in vain to subject the unexplored earthly forces to its will. The divine creator Himself lets His will prevail and certainly guides the thinking of a believing person such that he comes close to the truth …. However, He has His plan with every creation, and thus people can only exert their human influence in such a way that they carry out what their own will dictates to them, but the effects of their actions, as far as they concern a transformation of the work of creation …. i.e. change of the earth’s surface …. can never appear differently than God’s will approves. Ultimately, the entire creation is subject to the divine will …. Only people’s actions and thoughts are free …. Consequently, all thinking which does not have profound faith as a basic condition must remain without a final result; with such thinking the human being will only ever seek and search but never come to the right result …. So man is mistaken as long as he wants to attain knowledge without God, no matter which direction his thinking takes. The human being’s intellectual knowledge is truly too limited to be able to investigate the forces of the earth’s interior, for these forces, which are of purely spiritual origin, even if they are for the most part still at the beginning of their development, are so powerful and only restrained by God’s will, i.e. forced to limit their urge to be active, for the strength of these unredeemed beings would suffice to destroy everything if they were allowed free activity. Since every activity of these forces is therefore dependent on God’s will, it is again impossible that human will could utilize these forces in a way that is opposed to God, which, however, would be human will if it could intellectually penetrate the laws of nature which specifically concern the elements of the earth’s interior. Only a man of faith comes closer to the truth, but he will never misuse his knowledge for anything other than God-ordained actions. Nothing in creation is without meaning, and so the forces in the earth will also have to fulfil their purpose when it corresponds to divine will. However, all these forces are subject to the same law, which initially aims to preserve what has been created. But if these forces express themselves destructively, then divine will is also at work there, and neither opposing force nor human will is the cause of such activity, but both are only indirect insofar as they have brought about the point in time through joint activity against God’s will. Consequently, all natural disasters are certainly a consequence of the wrong will of man, but not an action brought about by man himself, and it must be emphasized time and again that a disaster can therefore never be explained in such a way that any disregard of physical forces on the part of man is the cause …. and that these forces could therefore be fathomed intellectually and weakened accordingly or their effects completely cancelled ….

Amen

The first task of earthly existence is and remains the perfection of the soul, and nothing else is so important that this task may be forgotten. And accordingly the whole time on earth must be filled with thoughts how such perfection can be achieved, man must neither become lukewarm nor lazy, and always only the soul is to be thought of, man is always to consider the importance of this his task so that he uses every hour and works his way up. The deity so often points out things to the human being which seem incomprehensible to him and thereby tries to stimulate his thoughts, and only constant contact with the divine lord and saviour will result in the earthly child’s successful striving …. Then nothing will seem insurmountable to him that previously stood like a mountain before his spiritual eye. The human being must strive tirelessly, and he must never think that he has already reached his goal …. To achieve this on earth requires an incredible struggle for the truth, a strong, firm will and a childlike love for God …. And if an earthly child strives for all this, he is also guaranteed by the father in heaven that he will reach his goal …. And therefore the human being should pray incessantly for the strength to love God and his neighbour …. and this strength will guide him on all paths ….

Amen

The community of souls of those in the beyond, who are responsible for the care of earthly beings, produces extremely valuable results, namely in the formation of the people’s soul, which is most likely to regocnize the seriousness of wrong actions and thoughts. The more straightforward and uneducated the character of a people is, the easier it regocnizes the worthlessness of the transitory and the more likely it is to make an effort to create values for eternity. However, as soon as earthly values begin to accumulate, as soon as a certain affluence has also penetrated these classes of people, thinking begins to flatten and take its course in a pernicious way, and nothing is more dangerous for a people than to have entered this path. How childishly humble and pleading a heart beats towards the father in heaven as long as it is not yet burdened with the concern for earthly goods, whose addiction to increase separates the soul of man from the eternal deity. And a people which always and constantly has only one goal, to become great, strong and powerful, is on the other hand in great danger of becoming spiritually weak, small and lowly, and this is understandable, for it no longer listens to the voice within, it closes itself to the influences of the world beyond, it clings too much to earthly things to be able to make contact with the power beyond. Anyone who is small on earth and does not burden himself with thoughts which are aimed at increasing his earthly possessions will nevertheless enrich himself in such a way that his possessions will outlast all times …. And thus the soul of the people is still the most likely bearer of spiritual strength, it is still the most likely to find the path to God, to the father …. and is still the most likely to enter into contact with all spiritual strength. However, if the foundations are shaken there too, if the people’s faith is so shaken that they can no longer find the path to the father in times of need because they can no longer see Him in their spiritual blindness, then all activity of the spiritual forces will be in vain and the greater these beings’ will to help, the greater their resistance will be. And thus, if the people are in such a spiritual state then there is true hardship on earth …. Then the time has also come when the transience of earthly possessions has to be brought to their attention, for only the great earthly adversity will result in renewed faith in a higher being, and only then will the endeavours of the beings in the beyond be crowned with success again. And that is why especially the people must be exceptionally affected and suffer, and thus there will be great hardship where the people’s soul is in danger of being completely dominated by matter, and a purification must be carried out there, which again is not possible in any other way than it now expresses itself everywhere …. through hardship and worry in every way ….

Amen

Anyone who unites with the eternal deity also harbours the deep desire to be one with It, and thus the separation between the earthly child and the father in heaven is overcome, the gulf which separated the two becomes smaller in order to finally give way to the secure feeling of unity and thus the original relationship is restored, and an indescribably beautiful state is now the spiritual being’s lot …. an infinitely blissful harmony that is limited neither in time nor space, i.e. a permanent state that encompasses everything in infinity. This may take an infinitely long time, but once this state has been reached, everything that has passed is only a fleeting moment in eternity, and the delights of eternity outweigh all suffering in an unredeemed state a thousandfold. The less anxious a person is to create an opulent earthly life that satisfies him in every respect, the easier the pilgrimage through the earthly valley will seem to him, and so when he leaves earthly life …. if he has travelled it with love …. nothing will remind him of the time on earth, and he will only look with compassion at the many erring souls who completely lack the concept of time and who can therefore languish for endless times in the beyond before the moment of redemption has come for them. Time can pass in the most agonizing self-reproach in the beyond, but it can also appear to the being as a single moment, and it is always divine providence if the being is allowed to pass from the unconscious state into a better, clear spiritual state which regocnizes itself and its environment …. Yet the being itself has to be active so that the hour of redemption will give it the right freedom. And thus the father in heaven considers His children in a way that is favourable to them …. The spiritual beings, which are allowed to send information to the world, have to fit into the time span of earthly existence, they have to adjust themselves to earthly laws and therefore also have to take into account the human soul, which in the present spiritual state still has a narrowly limited understanding and therefore first has to be instructed in detail. An unfinished soul in the beyond often does not know how to distinguish between past, present and future, but the privilege of the perfected is that there is no longer any concept of time for them …. (interruption)

In eternity the concept of time and space is obsolete, for nothing is limited, it is only an everlasting awareness of divine strength which is independent of time and space …. which is only changeable in its strength. It can increase in exhilarate bliss to an immeasurable degree and will nevertheless always be the same …. the radiance of closeness to God …. the most blissful and incomprehensible for you humans as long as the level of perfection has not been reached. However, worlds will be able to pass before a being of light has completely merged with the eternal glow of love. And thus the strength of divine love will communicate itself to every being, and these emanations are the epitome of greatest bliss and in turn increase the beings’ strength of love to an incomprehensible extent and communicate themselves through them again to the greatest extent to the countless beings in the universe, and thus the divine spirit of love is always and constantly at work, everywhere and without end …. As long as man dwells on earth, he lacks understanding for this working of the eternal deity until he endeavours to likewise put the law of love before everything else …. to make it the supreme law of all …. Then he may well have a faint inkling of the omnipotence of divine love, but he will not be able to appreciate it in its full extent until his soul has reached the degree of maturity that is possible for him to achieve on earth. And yet he should often ask himself the question as to what might motivate the eternal deity to take care of the earthly children with untiring patience in order to allow them to find the path to perfection. And he will only be able to justify the answer with infinite love, the depth of which he cannot even remotely fathom ….

Amen

It is the lord’s will that you teach people who are of good will. And it is so infinitely valuable to be instructed by God’s grace and thus to be knowledgeable that all those who walk in ignorance of the spirit should be remembered with compassion …. And to preach the gospel to them now is a work of neighbourly love and will one day bring rich blessings, for all these ignorant people are in greatest need of the soul. They walk along empty-hearted, and their earthly plagues are far greater, for they lack the realization of necessity, the hope of help and the comfort of the divine word, and thus their lives are poor despite earthly wealth and apparent well-being. To be left in such misery of the soul is an agonizing state for the latter, and it will gratefully feel every help of a loving person who redeems it from such misery. Time and again God brings people together who can help each other, and therefore every opportunity should be used and mention should be made without hesitation of God’s loving guidance, which can be regocnized in all suffering. Everything has the sole purpose of contributing to the human being’s ennoblement, the human being should accept all suffering in humble submission and remember his creator, Who allows nothing to happen without a wise intention but Who also loves His living creations dearly and thus all the trials He imposes on them are only ever based on this profound love and should bring about the earthly child’s rapprochement with the heavenly father. Every suffering would be gratefully accepted by people if they knew what blessings arise from it for the soul, which is immortal after all …. if it also knew what unspeakably agonizing state it has thereby escaped in eternity and what bliss can be its fate if the suffering has fulfilled its right purpose and brought realization to the human being …. they would surrender to the divine will and accept the suffering without grumbling ….

Amen

The spirit of anyone giving the world reason to live under constant threat does not demonstrate the love he should harbour within himself. Rather, it is the tribute of evil paid by the person spreading discord and controversy amongst humanity. People are supposed to cultivate love and peace and all should be like brothers to each other …. In its place bitter enmity is taken into homes which ought to shelter peaceful people; and a whole nation will be unworthy if the citizen of a country lives in spiritual bondage …. Enslaving those who should be treated like brothers is not sanctioned according to God’s will.

Those who arrogantly dare to put laws into place which restrict personal freedom …. and this purely to push through a preconceived idea, will soon discover that they went to too far and that destiny will reverse itself for those who believe themselves to be in charge of it. Admittedly, at first it will appear as if the worldly power is successful but not for long, for all signs of the time point towards the end of the period when force comes before mercy. And even so, if it remains unfeasible that the weak gain respect on earth, then it is permitted by God’s wisdom so that God’s righteousness, His love and His Omnipotence will clearly manifest itself one day …. for He will intervene when the time is right …. You must let Him rule alone and He will arrange everyone’s fate such that it will be bearable for the individual and with God’s blessing and help bring his life to the right conclusion.

And now get ready to receive a revelation, the meaning of which you will not be able to understand today, and yet it shall be explained to you: Hence the Lord will have to forcibly intervene in the spiritual chaos, and the world will already anxiously evaluate the scale of the eternal Deity’s intervention. And therefore it is it is permissible that a troubled nation’s ruler will first have to taste the miseries himself before he gets severely affected by world events. As yet he will still enjoy the height of his fame, as humanity continues to cheer him on, but once he has fallen no one will speak to him or on his behalf, for in times of hardship and most bitter adversity humanity forgets that it also owes him certain advantages, and thus it will come to pass that in the forthcoming time of hardship on earth a general uprising will be planned and implemented against the authorities, which will cause many a person’s downfall, who saw himself in a leading position …. And the soul will make a decision …. it will let itself be guided by its sense of righteousness, it will recognise the mistakes and shortcomings but also the intention of those who long for an improvement of the whole situation and will content itself with less power in order to protect humanity from further calamities …. For the incredibly embittered people will demand their rights and request the removal of the one who brought such indescribable misery over humanity.

And the hour will come when rich and poor, young and old, high and low will recognise how much power this ruler had exercised and how level-minded those had been who had not let themselves be deceived by appearances …. And once this change of direction has taken place the earth will only remain as it is for a little longer, in order to then receive a completely new appearance as a result of a huge disaster, admittedly not everywhere but noticeably in all countries which were united by the world conflagration and which contemplate mutual destruction. And this will be a dreadful day followed by a dreadful night, for the Lord waits with utmost patience, but if it is ignored events will take place on earth and affect everyone …. according to merit …. For God’s justice will not leave anyone on a throne who does not warrant his status …. and likewise elevate those who have always been faithful to Him, not for the sake of earthly reward but for love of the divine Creator …. Everyone’s fate has been determined since eternity, and the Lord is merely implementing what is proclaimed in Word and Scripture, so that humanity may recognise the truth of these predictions and take them to heart ….

Amen

He who is in the power of evil cannot so easily escape it and a perpetual battle must begin, and this battle can only lead to victory if the fighter submits himself to God the lord Himself, so that He may lead him into the battle and help him. Consequently, all struggle in the world is only successful if it is waged with God and directed against all evil. For the battle of destruction is always only against evil, good should emerge victorious and man on earth should only ever endeavour to overcome all matter as a part of evil. Then the good in him will increase and man will redeem himself from the power of evil. This is the meaning and purpose of all life on earth. But if it is now used to accumulate good to good, to increase matter, which is in fact part of evil, the course on earth is completely purposeless and the shell around the human soul thickens, which is to be dissolved in order to give freedom to the spirit within. All desire of matter intensifies the imprisonment of the spirit, which is of God, and gives the adversary ever new means to seize the soul. If only people would regocnize this and flee what seems desirable to them, for it will surely bring them ruin. For if the spirit cannot express itself from God …. if it cannot emerge from its covering, man is spiritually blind, he sees nothing, hears nothing and feels nothing of the breath of God in and around him …. he only pays attention to things that are outside, to the world and its illusory goods, and desires these with all his senses, while he carelessly rejects spiritual goods. And this state of the soul is incredibly burdensome for it and cannot be remedied until the human being lets go of his striving for earthly goods, for all matter, and turns to God of his own free will. And if the human being considers his imprisonment in matter throughout inconceivable times, which he was not allowed to end voluntarily and of his own free will, and now sets his stay on earth against it, which makes it easy for him to free himself from it …. it must nevertheless be unmistakable to him that he commits the greatest injustice against his creator, Who grants him this time of grace for complete liberation and he uses it so little. Yet if he does not believe he also rejects all admonitions and warnings, and this is the fundamental evil, that the human being lacks faith and thus all references to divinity, to the purpose and goal of earthly life, to soul and spirit are in vain and he thus rejects the truth and takes account of the spirit of lies, which makes everything appear desirable which is presented to the human being in terms of earthly possessions. And this is why it is necessary to preach the word of God to them again and again so that they regocnize their spiritual state and come to terms with it ….

Amen

The human being sometimes desires clarification about things which are unimportant and also in no way beneficial or useful to the soul, and this can be called wasted time which is used to investigate such things. For it is without any purpose to solve worldly problems which have nothing to do with the actual earthly task and which also do not serve to further the human being’s spiritual knowledge. The time on earth is so short and the task demands complete dedication, and any mental labour which neither serves the well-being of fellow human beings nor the well-being of the soul shortens this time on earth and diminishes spiritual success. The reward for such work is truly small, for it is only the recognition of a few fellow human beings who are also thinking wrongly as they attach too much value to such work. Man should indeed use his intellect …. for God has endowed him with it …. but only in a truly beneficial way …. for the good of his fellow human beings and must therefore be dictated to a certain extent by love for them …. And so every profession that meets people’s needs or in some way has a beneficial effect on humanity will be blessed and can stand before the eyes of God, but an activity that only has the purpose of creating works that serve the opposite, that are in no way beneficial and only helps to increase values or power will never find the approval of the divine creator, and one day man will remember in deepest remorse the time he has filled with such activity, whether mentally or physically …. and which did not bring him the slightest benefit for eternity ….

Amen

I will protect the one who desires to stand in truth from all error …. And he who trustingly abandons himself to Me so that I may lead him, his steps will never go astray, for I watch over him and prevent him from going astray. And now hear My voice: The path to the eternal home is like a steeply ascending footpath that leads through undergrowth and thorns …. He who bravely and powerfully overcomes all obstacles will safely reach his goal and rejoice in his ascent, for now that he has reached the end, all the difficulties of the path lie behind him, but before him lies the most magnificent view of all the land that lies beneath his feet …. And he will revel in the pleasure of being able to take in the picture that now presents itself to his eyes after his arduous ascent. And the same will happen to an earthly child at the end of its days if it has chosen Me as its guide and has travelled the thorny path of life by My hand. There are indeed many paths through earthly life, and they are often easy to walk and bordered with ornamental shrubs of all kinds, and they entice the traveller to rest and promise refreshment and rest to him who walks these paths, but he will never reach his destination …. For such paths certainly lead far from the goal, and in his restlessness and sluggishness, man does not regocnize where he is heading and moves further and further away from the right path, which, although arduous and difficult, inevitably leads to the heights. And this alone is the certainty that you have found the right path when you are weighed down by suffering, which are the thorns and undergrowth on the path to your eternal home. Whoever disregards these and courageously continues on his way will easily overcome all subsequent obstacles …. Only you must not shy away from them, you must not seek the comforts, but your mind must be simple and uneducated, then the path upwards will not seem difficult to you …. Everywhere along the way My messengers wait and support the traveller who wants to tire and is looking for a place to rest …. For such is only a danger for the one striving upwards. The path must be continued undeterred in joyfulness of heart and driven by the desire to see Me at the end of the path …. And all distractions must be avoided, all resting places inviting rest must be shunned, for they make the spirit of man sluggish and unwilling to make the arduous ascent. Yet without overcoming oneself, without renouncing all comforts, it is impossible to reach Me, and again My love draws every being upwards if only it is willing and does not resist Me …. And so I also advise you again to patiently bear your little cross, not to become weary, even if the path seems difficult to you, and to always trust your lord and saviour with a bright eye and a believing heart, Who holds everyone’s fate in His hands and considers people as it is necessary for them …. And My love protects you and all My little children from missing the right path, I guard all My little sheep and carry them carefully over insurmountable, difficult paths, so that they reach the heights, the eternal home, undamaged ….

Amen

Humanity will have to recognise its true Salvation in a completely new spiritual direction and it will loudly testify that this alone was its deliverance from all adversity. A tormented human race, afflicted by all kinds of distress, can release itself from utmost earthly torment by changing their innermost being …. by consciously working to improve their soul’s life. This way of refinement also results in an improvement of their earthly situation. Only the low spiritual level is the cause of all physical ailments, and the latter will be remedied as soon as the human being makes a spiritual effort to do justice to divine will. The human being’s spiritual darkness has such dreadful effects, countless souls walk headlong into ruin and can only be saved by an extremely arduous earthly life.

And in this hardship of the souls the Lord will awaken a man whose soul is filled by the spirit of God …. He will so speak of God that anyone who recognises him as a spiritual saviour of countless misguided people will breathe a sigh of relief. He will be fought against, yet his Word and its might will defeat the enemy …. He will fight for the souls, he will preach about love and ignite hearts by encouraging them into spiritual cooperation …. He will offer people the purest divine teaching, and everyone willing to do what is right will recognise which spirit speaks through him. He will not fear earthly power nor exert force by any means but with infinite patience and love explain to people their wrong way of life, their worldliness and their downfall …. They will listen to his Word and take heart from it, they will withdraw within and recognise the truth of his Words …. They will want to protect him from his pursuers, and soon two sides will emerge and argue with each other ….

And the Lord will impart great strength upon those who support him, whilst the power of those opposing him will diminish. And this will be the beginning of the new kingdom …. And blessed is he who listens to his inner voice and defends what he hears …. blessed is he who joins the army of fighters for God and battles against the opponent’s world …. The tortured soul will breathe a sigh of relief for having been saved in the last hour ….

And a new age will dawn …. The world’s external appearances, glamour and splendour will not be desired as much as before, the human being will strive for psychological maturity, he will strive for spiritual wealth and will long for gifts from above which the world cannot offer him. And from this time a new human race will emerge which will be the bearer of true Christianity, living in love for God and their neighbour, they will recognise the human being’s purpose and thus consciously work at becoming perfect, the soul will unite itself with the spirit and find union with God as Father and Creator of all things in order to be united with Him for all eternity ….

Amen

Go your way without hesitation and place yourself in God’s protection, then every walk will be blessed and all gates will be opened to you which lead to knowledge. And remember that the spiritual surrounds you and that every turning to God is felt and, as it were, takes part in every spiritual current that touches you. The living closeness to God has such a powerful effect, for spiritual strength flows inexorably from God to earth and everything of a spiritual nature which surrounds you is filled with this strength. And what is thus communicated to the living beings in higher development contributes again to the maturing of the spiritual in them. All creatures, all plant life and all rocks groan under the burden of their external form, and humanity could give a lot to all these beings if it wanted to establish a spiritual connection itself and if the flow of strength it receives were also imparted to all spiritual beings in its environment …. And that is why all creatures are also affected by people’s wrong way of life. It, too, feels humanity’s spiritual decline and likewise suffers from it, for all strength of love, which has a redeeming effect, is lacking in humanity, and this consequently also causes the beings to suffer, to whom therefore too little love is given. Everything that is active in love has to receive strength and distribute strength …. the light that illuminates also has to shine far and wide, and thus anyone who requests strength from God in closeness to God will receive it so abundantly that he, too, will be able to give it away again and will do so unconsciously. And this strength refreshes what comes into contact with it, what opens itself to receive it …. it knows no obstacles, it penetrates through all pores, it is in every breath of air, it is transferable like a thought, it revitalizes and stimulates activity again, and thus everything is a co-recipient of what is requested by the believing earthly child from the father …. And if you could measure the omnipotence of this power you would be lifted up by the thought of being able to help everything around you in its unredeemed state, you would be helpful towards the tiniest being, for then you would regocnize the same in everything …. work of God’s creation, whose course of development you have already travelled an infinitely long time ago. And your will would constantly be to help these spiritual beings, who would thank you at the right time ….

Amen

Such incredibly high demands are made when it concerns worldly pleasures or earthly goods and every human being endeavours to outdo the other. Yet in spiritual terms people completely lack this instinct, indeed, it is rather the case that spiritual striving is concealed from fellow human beings and thus a competition to attain a state of perfection is completely out of the question. And this is characteristic of the spiritual backwardness of mankind. People are not afraid to publicly declare their desire for earthly possessions but conceal as far as possible everything that is aimed at furthering the soul …. And yet the human being must first overcome this shyness in front of his fellow human beings, he must openly and courageously confess himself as a creature of God and thus as an earthly child who wants to serve Him and who regocnizes His power and glory. And if he puts his duty towards God before his earthly activity he can also be sure of divine blessing, but the father in heaven does not respect a creature who does not openly confess Him. And thus even today only a few people have the honest endeavour to make God’s will their own; they all continue on their earthly path unperturbed without asking themselves whether they are doing their best to comply with the will of the one Who created them …. Their only concern is to increase their possessions and goods or to prevent them from diminishing …. But if they would just as eagerly think of their soul and fulfil their spiritual duty with the same zeal, earthly life would no longer burden them, for the lord God assures the fulfilment of what is necessary for life to those who love Him and keep His commandments. And a public confession would bear exceedingly beautiful fruit for fellow human beings …. for one person always emulates another …. How many useless things a person focusses his mind on and how necessary it is to immerse himself in spiritual questions alone in order to secure his existence for all eternity …. Admittedly, man must be able to renounce earthly goods with complete satisfaction and be content only with what the father in heaven has intended for him. But he willingly surrenders everything once the spirit within him instructs him and makes him understand the worthlessness of earthly things. How his mind is then turned only to the spiritual, and how empty earthly life now appears to him, how sober all that he desired before. And his zeal will become ever greater …. his shyness to confess will be overcome, and he will now be able to work for the blessing of himself and all those to whom he imparts the same teachings that are so obviously and wonderfully offered to him by the infinite love of the lord ….

Amen

The power of the spirit is unimaginable, it works mightily and unlimitedly, because it is nothing of itself, but everything from God …. It is invincible, it rules the heights and the depths, it is present everywhere and draws all wisdom from God, it is eternally unchanging …. it is the eternal divinity’s expression of will …. it is the divine power itself expressed. And therefore it cannot pass away, it cannot diminish, nor can it ever change or work differently than is the will of God …. If the human being is able to regocnize the truth of this then all doubt remains far from him, for he then willingly submits to this divine strength and is seized by it, and he can now likewise only fulfil God’s will. The power of the spirit works in all those who believe and are active in love. Yet those who do not have faith and are devoid of all love are guided by their own will, and their own will …. without faith and love …. opposes the divine will and therefore the divine spirit of love …. One’s own will obeys the whisperings of those beings who likewise let their own will rule on earth as well as now in the beyond …. These are imperfect souls who did not regocnize the divine spirit and thus stood outside of its effect on earth and now exert their influence from the beyond on people who are of the same mind …. who live without faith and without love …. However, the divine spiritual strength shares itself with all those who regocnize God and love Him, who are willing to believe and love and want to approach the eternal deity. The spark of God in man …. the awakened spirit of God …. establishes the connection with the elemental force, insofar as the human being strives of his own free will to ascend …. it guides thinking correctly, it determines all actions, and thus the power of the spirit is already at work and makes itself increasingly more noticeable the more intimately the human being enters into union with his creator, and the power of the spirit can express itself so inconceivably that the human being can accomplish things which appear incomprehensible to the world. And it is therefore extremely important to shape his life on earth such that the strength of the spirit can effectively express itself in the human being, then everything that previously appeared to be an obstacle can be overcome, for the divine spiritual strength is not subject to any laws, it works in complete unison with the divine will; it is the emanation of this divine will itself, and thus the human being will be able to control everything if he utilizes the strength of the spirit by living in faith and love and desiring divine blessings ….

Amen

On the one hand, regular reception certainly increases the ability to receive the divine word, but on the other hand it is a certain danger for the earthly child insofar as it can easily lose its willingness to receive and thus the offered word is correspondingly more difficult to hear. The reception must be desired with all the senses, it must trigger joy and be received with a grateful heart, and the more willingly the friends on the other side will offer their teaching to the recipient …. however, indifference or habitual acceptance must not occur if the proclamations are to continue to be valuable and make the earthly child happy. Whoever is offered such a precious gift should always and constantly long joyfully for the hour that gives him the most delicious …. the divine word offered in all purity …. He should receive it as a gift of grace of the greatest value, he should give thanks with every breath to the one Who bestows such grace on a person, and he should receive it with the deepest humility and the most joyful devotion …. this hour should be the most delicious thing that can be longed for on earth, it should make him happy and make his heart beat faster, after all, God Himself is close to the earthly child and touches it with His breath …. And therefore it is commanded to first establish a very intimate contact with the divine lord and saviour, so that the earthly child detaches itself from everything that still captivates it and now in all humility desires to hear the voice of the lord. And once this connection has been established and a heartfelt prayer to the father has proven His willingness and joyfulness to receive, the proclamation will flow to him easily and effortlessly and thus also be blessed by the lord ….

Amen

Those who are in knowledge regocnize the divine power in everything that happens. They know that everything is first and foremost based on God’s will, they also know that nothing happens without intention and that events fit together in such a way that they always serve the maturing of everything spiritual in creation. And this knowledge is of particular advantage when one counters the many false views that want to eliminate God’s wisdom, love and omnipotence and describe this divine power as the mere effects of the forces of nature …. Nothing in the universe is unintentional, i.e. coincidence …. A certain purpose always underlies an event, but people usually do not regocnize this purpose …. On the other hand, since a little attention to all natural events reveals a certain plannedness and therefore a wise creator must undeniably be regocnized, every event must also correspond to the counsel of eternal wisdom and therefore have its origin in it, and something well-considered in the divine plan cannot therefore be criticized or even denied from the human side. But it cannot be made comprehensible to humanity that God’s will sometimes expresses itself where, according to human judgement, violent intervention is inappropriate …. For it does not realize that the spiritual state of man requires many things that are difficult to explain to the rational thinker, and that therefore people must also be affected who are pure and flawless in the eyes of the world but very flawed before God. And for the sake of these great upheavals are being prepared in world affairs, for the sake of these the earth will still see much suffering, however, no suffering is without intention of the divine lord, and also for the sake of these an unmistakable judgement will have to come from above, so that these only will be saved, because the world does not look as the father in heaven does, it judges blindly according to appearances, it knows nothing about the necessity of all divine intervention but only sees the suffering that comes upon humanity, and only he who is in knowledge knows that only love and mercy causes the father in heaven to do everything and that this is necessary for the sake of the souls ….

Amen

The soul will emerge purified from the fire of love, and it will be aware of its present state and gratefully regocnize that the father has guided it wisely and lovingly and saved it from eternal downfall. And the earthly career will only appear to it like a shadow, it has been overcome and only faintly remains in the memory, since all suffering no longer touches the soul. The night of the spirit has given way to the brightest, most radiant dawn and the soul revels in heavenly delights. Whoever now reaches this state of the soul while still on earth merely casts off the earthly body like a burdensome shell and enters through the gate to eternity carefree. However, this purification process of the soul must have started beforehand, otherwise it is impossible for the soul to purify itself from all dross and emerge crystal clear, as is necessary for entering the spheres of light in the beyond. As long as the purification of the soul is not yet completely accomplished, it denies itself entry into those spheres …. it is still somehow attached to the old world and has not yet been completely released, thus this attachment must first be removed, and this is only possible through love, which is opposed to suffering …. through the heartfelt love with which a person wants to remedy the suffering of others. And thus this fire of love will consume the last remnants of the soul’s remaining dross and this soul will emerge from the purification process completely cleansed. Anyone who visualizes this procedure will now also regocnize the extent to which love has a redeeming effect …. he will understand that only through love is it possible to enter the realm of eternal peace …. and if people give love to each other, if they make an effort to keep suffering away from each other and always put love for their neighbour and therefore also for God before all actions and thoughts, the kingdom of peace will also already be on earth and people could cover the earth’s orbit without deep suffering …. But where love dies there is already the kingdom of darkness, the opposing power prevails and incites people against each other, and this lack of love has serious consequences, the shell around the human soul becomes increasingly more impenetrable, yet there is no other way to dissolve this shell than to act with love. Everything that is divine is bright, light and clear …. and so the soul must also be bright, light and clear in order to be able to unite with God, and in this realization it must make use of a means that is also divine …. of love …. This means is of such extraordinary power that it can wipe away all guilt, loosen all fetters, melt all dross and remove all rubbish …. that it purifies the soul and it can thus become bright, light and clear …. through love …. enter into union with the eternal deity ….

Amen

The inner voice informs the human being of God’s will, and therefore it should be heeded first, for if he obeys it he is also walking the right path. In order to hear the voice within himself, the human being must be prepared to comply with God’s will, he must, as it were, ask for divine instructions in order to be able to fulfil them, and if he expresses this will, God will also make Himself known to him, in different ways depending on his worthiness. Mostly through the voice of conscience …. This is audible to every person who listens inwardly, it is the admonition to do good and the warning to refrain from evil, it is the surest signpost, the exhortation and the warning signal from on high. He who pays attention to his thoughts will regocnize that they flow in upon him both desired and undesired. So often thoughts arise which are annoying to him, which want to determine him to do something or prevent him from carrying out something, and such thoughts are always the inner voice audible to man, the voice of conscience. If a person allows himself to be guided by such thoughts, always with God in mind and with the will to do what is right, he will truly be guided correctly. But if this voice is not heeded, the call from on high will become weaker and weaker until it finally falls silent completely, for the will to do good, the prerequisite for hearing the inner voice, is not present. However, if the human being establishes an intimate relationship with the father in heaven by eagerly following the divine will, the voice will resound all the louder, for where the will of the earthly child completely subordinates itself to the divine will, there the lord will let His voice resound audibly and remove all barriers which had been erected between Him and the earthly child. Truly, no special external gift is required for this, but a truly God-loving heart and most intimate devotion suffice, for in such a heart the lord and saviour Himself can take up residence and now speak clearly and audibly with His child. And this triggers all the delights of heaven in the earthly child who is so happy. It may only desire the divine voice and will now never make a wrong request, and the divine saviour Himself instructs it in the most loving way and announces His will to it. And every human being is entitled to this extraordinary grace and yet it is disregarded …. To be in direct contact with God, to be allowed to hear His kind fatherly words and to draw grace, comfort and strength from them in unimagined abundance is truly God’s greatest gift of grace …. and yet it is so little appreciated, and in times of adversity mankind suffers through its own fault ….

Amen

How gently and carefully the father guides His true children through earthly life …. through all dangers and protects them from severe hardship, both physically and spiritually …. For the father in heaven loves these children of His who constantly long for Him and endeavour to the best of their ability to serve Him and obey His will. And therefore, do not fear and despair, even in times of earthly adversity, for the lord will let it pass you by and He will ensure that it will not oppress you and that you will always find help …. And this should be a comfort to you and you should look to the future with a joyful heart, for wherever it may be, the father will always grant you His protection, thus you will never be abandoned, even if it seems as if everything around you is threatening to collapse. Those who commend themselves to the father in heaven and implore His grace are in the safest of guard, for He will not leave a prayer sent up in faith unanswered. Many a storm may still pass over you, but the sun will always shine again afterwards, and again and again gentle calm and cloudless skies will make the memory of the previous storms fade …. And remember that these storms must also be, for the lord, Who commands life and death, also has these storms in His power, and if He allows the elements to rage, He again only intends to purify everything that He has destined for higher work. He first separates everything unfair so that the path to perfection becomes free for the being. And many such storms still have to come over humanity, and that is why you should not become timid and faint-hearted. As long as you prove yourselves worthy of God’s love He will also hold His protective hand over you, and thus you have to practice love, for thereby you testify your will to Him and also express your love for Him. And He will protect you from all danger and also give you His love.

Amen

Man should scrutinize himself with relentless rigour as to how far he complies with God’s will, and he should always keep his actions and omissions in mind, he should ask God for the strength to do so in a constant endeavour to always do what is right, he should never tire of working on himself and always and constantly answer to Him and listen to the inner voice that rebukes him if he wants to go astray. Always living in the will of God is only feasible if all thoughts are turned towards the eternal deity, if love for God dominates the person …. Then man will also always fulfil the will of Him Whom his soul loves. However, this also requires self-conquest, for in order to be able to fulfil the divine will, man must willingly renounce everything that gives him earthly pleasure …. he must be able to sacrifice …. he must tame his worldly desires and seek fulfilment of his longing only in love for God …. he must also avoid everything that could tempt him to sin. These are the thoughts that want to go astray and do not correspond to the divine will. The enemy tries to influence precisely those souls who want to serve God and any means is right for him to do so. And thus he tries to dissuade the striving earthly child from its serious striving for God through mental whisperings, and a struggling soul will therefore often have to fight against such thoughts which have to be regocnized as opposing influence and therefore rejected. And again the inner voice has to be listened to, which instructs the earthly child correctly in every way. And thus every danger will also be overcome if only the human being’s will is always willing to submit itself to divine will, if he entrusts all his actions and thoughts to the lord, asks Him for His grace and for the right enlightenment in all things …. The father in heaven will hear this prayer of His child and his walk on earth will truly correspond to God’s will, for the father demands nothing but free human will, if this is sacrificed to Him He will guide and direct His children so that they will safely reach their goal, their eternal home.

Amen

Thoughts flow to you in unimagined abundance in order to be seized by you, but intellectual thinking does not allow these transmitted thoughts to be realized. The human being must surrender to the forces of the beyond without will and think nothing earthly …. he only has to want to speak to his creator and open his heart so that it hears the divine voice. And everything earthly will disappear from his consciousness and the forces of the beyond will be able to work unhindered. This state must be striven for in order to hear ever deeper wisdom and to always comply with divine will …. Wait for the moment that frees you from all doubts …. I desire your heart and can only take possession of it if you completely surrender it to Me, but without any external influence you must try to reach the goal, and only when you belong to Me completely will I speak to you in such a way that the last doubt disappears and you are henceforth indissolubly united with Me. Hearing the word is greatest bliss, it sweetens your every pain and lifts you above all heaviness, and you always and everywhere seek My spirit …. and I am so close to you that you feel Me and are at peace. For only love makes life worth living, but if you are inflamed with love for Me, all the world is far from you and you live with Me and for Me. For you have tasted heavenly delights and earthly life is nothing more to you than just the place where you are to fulfil your mission. And this will keep you upright if you are anxious, never forget that My love constantly cares for you and that I stand by your side in every situation in life, and be ready to help everyone in cases of earthly adversity. For if you train yourself to love, there will no longer be any barriers between us and My blessing will guide you on all your paths. Now try to increase your intimacy and enter into My light and My love, and when the hour has come which I have determined for you then I will come to meet you and welcome you into My kingdom with open arms, for I Myself have set the goal for you and will strengthen you so that you will reach it …. And always listen within until you hear the sound and regocnize My nearness in it. The hour is no longer far away and it will bring you liberation and make you completely a loving child of the heavenly father, and all striving upwards will now be crowned with success, for My love will guide you ….

Amen

This is the most blissful process on earth, to be able to participate in the outpouring of divine love and to receive the word of the lord. The lord constantly remembers His children on earth, and He sees their need and pours out the fullness of His grace upon people, and He wants to remove the darkness of the spirit from them and bring them light so that they find the path upwards, to Him. And this light is His word, and whoever hears the word and acts accordingly has a light and clear spirit and regocnizes the right path to the father. This is why He gives people His word …. And if the father now speaks to His children, then His infinite love seeks to penetrate their heart, He wants it to open itself to receive the most precious gift, so that He can work with all His strength in the now willing earthly child, so that His spirit can now be active in it and instruct it about the meaning and purpose of earthly existence. Whoever receives this word draws infinite strength from the source of divine love, and he will now be able to pass on the flow of strength to all who are in need of the drink. Yet the source will not dry up unless it is forcibly spilled …., i.e., the receiving earthly child resists any further spiritual activity …. But the lord holds His protective hand over this …. He quenches the desire and quenches the thirst again and again …. And the gift of grace is received by people, it is desired and again gives comfort and strength to all those who take note of the divine word with a believing heart …. For the lord Himself is in His word …. He comes to everyone, and whoever receives Him, He blesses and remains with him always. And whoever is in distress of soul is strengthened by this word. It does not leave him in doubt, it enlightens the person and instructs him, it does not leave him in the darkness of night, but brings him into the light of day and teaches him right thinking. The blessing of the divine word is priceless …. the body does not regocnize the value of it for the soul, but the soul gives heartfelt thanks to its creator that it has been liberated by the divine word. The development of all other creatures is according to God’s will …. The development of the human being or the human soul, however, is solely its own will …. and depends on its attitude towards the word of God …. And once the soul has regocnized the value of this word, it is saved for eternal times …. The transmissions from above greatly facilitate the soul’s course of development …. a willing opening to the inexhaustible source of grace, and all strength and grace flows through it and gives it the full ability to shape itself according to the will of the lord ….

Amen

Creation, as man sees it, is only an infinitesimally small part of the work of creation and in no way allows conclusions to be drawn about the miracles of divine creation, which are and must be hidden from the eyes of man, since these are not of such a kind that man could grasp them. What man is able to see is always adapted to his conceptual capacity, yet the whole of creation displays so many marvellous works which are completely different in kind and form from the earth. When looking at the countless creations which are accessible to man, the question must be raised as to whether only these formations exist on earth or whether the same law prevails on other celestial bodies or world bodies and the same creations also exist. And this must be answered in the negative. The heavenly bodies are created in innumerable variations, and man cannot form a picture of how different each heavenly body is in itself and how they, which are nevertheless subject to the one lawgiver …. contain such diverse creatures and yet again all these creations serve the same purpose of contributing to the perfection of the soul. The creatures everywhere have a certain mutability of their outer form, and thus they enliven the star to which they are assigned and fulfil their task there, which was given to them from the beginning. This has to be made clear before the human being can gain an insight into the diversity of creations which are not visible to him. And this is only permitted for the purpose that they will pay more attention to earthly phenomena in the time to come, so that the emergence of creation will be made understandable to them and the coming changes will also be illuminated from the spiritual side …. (interruption)

The most tireless research work will not come any closer to this goal as long as spiritual assistance is not sought at the same time, for the researcher approaches a task without knowledge which can only be accomplished spiritually. From the human point of view all works of creation, even those outside the earth, would have to possess the same material legality and they would also have to be subject to the same laws of nature, since otherwise it would be inconceivable for human beings to exist and come into being. But now all creations are based on different laws of nature for the first time, then also the composition in material relation is so fundamentally different with each individual work of creation and moreover also the basic condition for the possibility of existence of the beings inhabiting the creations is so different from each other that human science would stand here before a completely unsolvable riddle if it would approach the investigation of these works of creation just purely scientifically. And all previous results are completely worthless as they do not come close to the truth in the slightest. Man’s sense, his capacity for comprehension and judgement does not extend beyond the earthly sphere and there are only a few possibilities to explain other creations in such a way that they are comprehensible to man …. The basic elements which man must know in order to understand their work are completely meaningless in other celestial bodies, and knowledge of them cannot be used to determine any phenomena which one would like to clarify. In order to penetrate into the secrets of other works of creation, a complete detachment from the earthly sphere, a liberation from everything visible on earth, is necessary first, the human being has to spiritually unite with the spiritual forces of those worlds and accept all explanations in this regard as a newcomer. And now try whether you will succeed in this ….

The star to which you have given the name Venus is a star of indescribable charm. You should never imagine a structure that is like the earth, there are bright areas at regular intervals that appear varied and extremely attractive to the observer. These regions are inhabited by beings of the strangest kind according to human concepts. The stay in these regions is only temporary for these beings, as this star also serves the beings for further development. The entire surface of the celestial body is lovely to look at and offers its inhabitants a blissful stay for a short time, as they are constantly changing it. This world is so different from the earthly comprehensible that only a spiritual experience, a seeing, can convey the impressions to man and that even then it is still unspeakably difficult for man to reproduce these impressions so that fellow man can form a picture. And yet there is also a spiritual connection between that heavenly body and earth which makes it possible to be taught, it is just that a certain spiritual state of maturity is required which replaces the lack of human knowledge and is therefore the first condition in order to penetrate areas which otherwise remain closed to the human being ….

Amen

People’s spiritual state is still so confused and their thinking is far removed from true realization. And therefore it is very difficult to give them information about the working of the spirit in the human being, since they don’t want to regocnize anything other than what visibly and tangibly appears to them. They completely exclude something from their thoughts, so to speak, which, however, only results in the right solution, and thus it is impossible to explain to them the working of that which, according to their concept, does not exist at all. And it is equally impossible to convince people of the existence of the spirit, since again nothing external points to it, but everything spiritual is only spiritually perceptible or noticeable. The realist demands proof and wants everything to be justified purely factually. A factual justification …. however, proof of the existence of the divine spirit in man would only be possible in such a way that a test on the example would be made …. that man would declare himself ready to fulfil all preconditions for the awakening of the divine spirit …. then he would experience the credibility of this in himself …. Instead, the person who believes to be all too profound rejects the experience of the other and remains spiritually blind. An inner life of the soul is alien to him, external life completely occupies him and his thinking, and his spirit slumbers in the deepest envelope and cannot free itself from it. And almost nothing can bring about a change in such thinking. He who cultivates spiritual thinking is ridiculed, and one is so foolish as to regard one’s own wrong thinking as the only right one, and that one mocks and criticizes the world. Even where the endeavour is to lead people to God the same blind state of mind can be found, for even their thinking is too earthly, although the will is good …. yet they lack the depth of faith, for this has to be developed in each person himself and cannot be taught from person to person in a scholastic way …. (interruption)

The strength of the spirit can only work where it is granted freedom, and thus the spirit of someone who lacks all faith in the dormant spark of God within himself can never express itself. And thus the gulf that separates such people from cognition is unbridgeable until he realizes the worthlessness of everything earthly and his thinking is slowly transformed …. Then the human being does turn to the deity and asks about things which are now answered by the divine spirit, and the power of the spirit now expresses itself, at first still unclear to the human being, however, if he is serious about spiritual knowledge, the answer will become increasingly clearer and more comprehensible to him. Thus the spirit in him has become lively …. spiritual science is either cultivated with full fervour or completely rejected …. The God-seeking, loving human being will always be introduced to it, and he will regocnize that he can still and still draw from this container of wisdom if he is hungry for knowledge, and that every area will be opened up to him through it …. and that in fullest truth and highest perfection. Yet all spiritual influence remains alien to the worldly aspirant, for he pays no attention when he receives corresponding instructions or advice …. His train of thought is so secularized that he has no understanding for the subtle spiritual language of the knower. Everything is so incomprehensible to him that he at best doubts the clear thinking of the latter with regret but never takes such transmissions seriously. And from a purely objective point of view, he cannot prove that a power can express itself in man that is alien to him …. This thought is a nuisance to him and so he does not endeavour to test it for its correctness. And his state of mind remains the same, unfinished, backward and the human being completely ignorant and yet living in the conviction that his knowledge far surpasses that of his fellow human beings. Yet one day these poor people will have to regocnize the hardship their deluded thinking has caused …. For their worldly knowledge will not be valued in the beyond and they are poor and empty in spiritual knowledge …. And if those knowledgeable beings, who were misjudged in earthly life, did not want to help them and take care of their hardship, such souls would truly be in a bad way. And what was so easily available to them on earth now has to be gained with difficulty and effort in the beyond, and the regret about the missed opportunity on earth will torment these beings once they have realized how necessary spiritual knowledge and the working of spiritual strength is for the higher development of all beings ….

Amen

The lord allows all spiritual beings to enter the infinite universe and assigns each one its purpose. As it were the lord lets all His creations take possession of the beings and these carry out all functions which the creator has ordered for the purpose of the continued existence of His creations. An unimaginable activity therefore develops in the entire creation, and this activity in turn can only be carried out by means of divine power …. If the divine power did not work through all these beings, they would be dead and inactive. Thus all these beings are carriers of spiritual power, carry out their activity through it and thereby increase the power in themselves to a certain degree in order to then be able to enter a new sphere of activity. And thus all worlds, all celestial bodies are in turn central stations or collection points of divine emanations, and all beings are nourished and receive, as it were, the fluid necessary for their continued existence uninterruptedly from their creator and producer …. In order to be able to understand this process, man only needs to imagine how powerless and helpless every newborn child is and how it is dependent on the nourishment and every assistance of the earthly producers …. and if it is seemingly an independent being, independent of everything else, it is nevertheless linked to its producers through the bonds of nature …. How much more now the creature, which has emerged from nothing …. which the divine will to love has produced …. but which is now destined to develop into the highest God-like being …. If the creator places these demands on His created beings, then He must also simultaneously give them the means to fulfil these demands. And this means is His power …. He feeds everything with His strength and thus also ensures the preservation of everything He has created. And the beings receive this strength unconsciously without interruption until they enter that conscious stage where they are able to request this strength unmeasured and can now fulfil their final task with ease …. Man on earth has one thing ahead of all spiritual beings, that no limitation of divine power is set for him and it is up to him to request and utilize it …. He has the one advantage that he can turn to his creator again and again and ask Him for the supply of this power and thus utilize his last stay on earth in order to reach the goal set for him and to become a God-like being, a true child of God ….

Amen

Being in direct contact with spiritual strength promotes the spiritual development of the soul immensely, which urgently needs support in its imperfect state. Consciously asking for this strength is of inestimable value and must therefore also produce clearly recognizable results. An incorrigible denier of this strength, however, does not find the support and his soul’s state is inevitably affected by it; i.e. the soul is not offered the opportunity to raise itself, it cannot develop and thus remains what it was before it animated the human body. And this again explains why people’s spiritual state is so low. It can be explained that precisely the human being who relies on his own strength no longer progresses but always remains in the same state and therefore his life can be called a useless one if he does not receive enlightenment from one side. Thus the human being must first be made aware that he has unlimited strength at his disposal, but that this strength will only manifest itself when the human being expresses his will to receive it through his prayer, and thus he will now be considered even if he is still faced with resistance. This strength gradually penetrates his soul uninfluenced by earthly obstacles such that it perceptibly notices the relief, that from now on it believes itself to stand in the light, that it eagerly follows a certain path which promises it the goal for certain …. and that it is now suddenly illuminated by this light, which is eternal truth. It no longer seeks, for it has found …. it does not doubt, for it believes …. it does not enquire, for it knows …. It accepts everything that the spirit proclaims in it, and thus the divine power expresses itself in it and now makes it easy for it to ascend upwards. This power is therefore never a phantom, it is rather perceptible and of such extraordinary effect that it is already recognizable purely externally …. for the whole external life of the human being also takes on other forms …. Man simply cannot remain in the old if the power of the spirit is at work in him. It causes everything to progress, both the development of the soul and physically a greater sensitivity for everything that is spiritual …. and thus it makes the human being suitable for spiritual vision and experience …. It makes the soul receptive to all that is high and pure, it guides it into higher spheres and opens its eyes to all that is perfect …. for it will one day have the same mission and must therefore experience an everlasting increase …. It must desire to stand in the light and must not hide this light under a bushel, so that it may shine in the neighbourhood and thus serve as a signpost, as it were, for those who are still going astray ….

Amen

As soon as you receive My spirit you will also receive My strength. The epitome of My love for you is to help you in all tribulations which, however, I cannot spare you as long as you have not yet completely regocnized Me …. And I only wait for your call in order to be able to stand by you in all adversity. If you accept Me into your existence then the suffering will also have fulfilled its purpose and I will take it away from you, and if you then call upon Me in spirit and in truth you will be seized by My spirit and given all My strength. And if you now believe and your heart willingly opens itself to this power …. if you trust Me and thus hand yourselves over to Me fully believingly and willingly so that I will help you, you will also feel the strength within yourselves and become aware of My spirit …. Yet you must overcome your timidity and doubtfulness. I have been your father from the beginning and all My love belongs to you who have emerged from Me; and I long for My children to return to the father’s house and if you do not resist Me I will draw you to Myself …. Yet you must believe in the father’s love for His children …. I am with you and must use all means to bring you up as believing, fully trusting children so that you will take refuge in all devotion to My fatherly heart in every adversity and tribulation of life. And thus you may only ever call upon Me and expect My help, and My strength will flow through you and you will overcome all hardship which I have to endure for the salvation of your soul ….

Amen

I am still giving you a very short time so that you will reflect and leave the path you are now walking on earth. And when the hour has come which is to bring about their downfall you will regocnize it by the light of day as it fades at an unusual time, and you will see the last sign in the darkness …. You will be warned for the last time and again admonished to turn back, for the individual can still avert eternal ruin for himself, he is still offered the opportunity to save his soul and then only gives his life in order to receive it again. Yet this hour will be terrible, for the earth will tremble, the water will rush forth and flood the land with roaring and storming, and humanity will realize that it is powerless in the face of the forces of nature. And the despair will be great and the horror indescribable when the approaching end is recognizable to them. And a great accusation will sound against the deity but they will not remember their own guilt. They will remain obstinate even in this great adversity except for a few whom I will visibly help. For those who honour the lord God and confess their guilt to Him will not be completely destroyed. And the judgement will only be brief, and when the sun breaks through the clouds again, the horror of the night will be over …. but the earthly damage will be incalculable. The sun will shine brighter than ever, the air will be calm and mild, and everything will be presented to the eyes of the survivors in the light of dawn, but the horror will not let people be happy until they have surrendered to Me and left all further paths to Me Myself. And My spirit will enlighten these weak ones, they will suddenly see and the horror will give way to a higher realization, they will praise and glorify Me and be happy and grateful that I have mercy on them and have chosen them to reproduce the generation …. and their love for Me will be kindled and they will compete to offer their services to Me and I will choose them as My servants, and then they will be offered spiritual nourishment and the immense spiritual hardship will come to an end and a new age will begin which will emphasize spiritual aspiration and only faintly regocnize worldly desire. Those who take part in this great event will remember it until the end, for the divine creator obviously expressed Himself …. A messenger of God is going through the land and will first sound his warning call …. The world will first shun the land full of horror, which will spread misery and hardship to all people through sickness and all kinds of epidemics. A devastating disease will afflict people and they will find no salvation, and this will be the beginning of the end …. And now the new kingdom has come into being, it will be ruled by a just judge, a kind wise monarch, who will be regocnized everywhere without finding resistance, and even if the world of appearances still rules everything at the moment, it will disintegrate and have to give way to the new time, and truth and justice will be the sign that a separation has taken place from everything impure …. that lies and appearances had to give way because it was My will ….

Amen

The common good very often demands a sacrifice of one’s own well-being. And a certain sacrifice must therefore be made in order to be able to serve one’s neighbour. Nothing is more beneficial to a person’s soul than a willing renunciation of all the comforts of life in favour of his fellow human being. This is true neighbourly love, which has an indescribably beneficial effect. Such actions already result in the greatest blessing on earth, for it awakens love in return and thus contributes to the ennoblement of the human being. And the father in heaven allows His children to do the same as they do and give to each other …. And so earthly good is also increased for the blessing of the giver as long as it is not done for the sake of reward …. However, the effect of all such deeds is far greater in eternity. There are certainly countless people living on earth who are not at all comfortable with this willing help towards their neighbour, they reject everything that could remind them of such helpful deeds and yet they do themselves the greatest harm, for one day they will have to record a shortfall and this will be bitterly regretted. For the same thing that their neighbour once desired is now their most ardent wish if they need the love and mercy of other souls in the same poverty and neediness and it is now denied to them. And therefore give …. give with full hands if you are approached about it and try to alleviate the need where you can …. Offer yourselves if you can help your fellow human being by doing so, and know that the father in heaven will not deny you His mercy if you ask Him for an earthly gift …. For He does not leave His child in need, but in the same way you should also give up everything you can give to your fellow human being in order to alleviate his need. And if you feel the goodness and love of the father in yourselves, remember the poor at all times and always show them your love and mercy and do not let them go without …. For the lord God has brought you together so that you may help one another, comfort one another and alleviate all suffering, so that you may redeem yourselves through works of unselfish neighbourly love and at the same time awaken love and thus contribute to the ennoblement of humanity ….

Amen

Unite yourselves, you My faithful ones, and become My fighters on earth and proclaim My word to them. The spirit of modern times takes other paths and people are in great danger if My word is not conveyed to them, and their souls turn to Me for help, albeit unconsciously. For they regocnize the idleness of their life …. they have lost their way and can no longer find their way out of the confusion of life. And so I send them My help through you so that you may inform them of My love and My care for all those who have gone astray. And even if they still lack faith, they nevertheless sense that they are on the right track and desire clarification …. …. And from now on they will pay more attention to all contemporary phenomena, and My admonition will not go unheard. You will often experience how strangely I direct the paths of those who are supposed to stand by each other, for you are all My children and My love belongs to you for all eternity. If you trustingly pray to Me you will also regocnize My guidance and offer Me no resistance. And then My working through you will be successful, My word will be desired and joyfully received, thoughts will wander upwards, the spirit will awaken and free itself from its cover …. man will strive for perfection, he will regocnize Me and cling to Me in love, he will ask for the supply of grace, he will be lovingly active and thus redeem himself through love …. For My word shall bring this about, My word shall awaken you from the lethargy of the spirit, My word shall lead you upwards …. My word shall be your strength and power on the path to your eternal home, it shall lead you back to Me, you who are still so distant from Me, for all My love applies to those children who have not yet regocnized Me as their father and yet owe their existence to Me alone …. And there are still many of them who have not yet found the right path …. I want to gather all these and direct them to where My word is imparted to them and they shall pay attention to this word’s might and power …. They should realize that only a higher power can be active where the word is imparted to people in the noblest form …. they should realize that the eternal deity unites Itself with Its creatures in order to draw all beings up from the depth of unbelief to the highest realization ….

The blessing of continued spiritual work will not fail to materialize and will manifest itself in ever deeper union with Me and ever deeper spiritual experiences. And this is of immeasurable value, for thoughts will now flow to you in abundance and your knowledge will be enriched in all areas. The urge for spiritual work will become ever more powerful in order to finally fill your whole life, for your desire will only be directed towards the spiritual and your love will only be for Me, and in this love you will work for Me ….

Amen
