Conditions for the working of the spirit ….

B.D. 3615 from November 28th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

Your knowledge is patchy for as long as you are not taught by the spirit within yourselves …. and all your pondering and searching will not suffice if you do not contact Me first …. in order to appeal to My spirit for enlightened thinking. Anyone having gained his knowledge without appealing for My help first can certainly speak of human insight but never claim to possess divine wisdom …. knowledge which relates to the spiritual kingdom and corresponds to the truth …. For I alone distribute this knowledge, certainly to anyone who desires it, nevertheless only providing the conditions I ask for are met so that My spirit is able to work in a person. Consequently, the knowledge, the pure spiritual truth, will only be guaranteed if the petitioner completely submits himself to My will, if he lives according to My teaching …. with love for Me and his neighbour …. This is the first condition a person will have to fulfil if he wants to become worthy of My gift of grace, of receiving the pure truth through My spirit ….

Additionally, he must have a profound desire for truth …. This is another condition I expect to be met but which is rarely considered. For in order to receive the knowledge which complies with the truth the human being must first give up his humanly imparted knowledge, that is, he must not assume to be already knowledgeable …. otherwise he will hardly be open to the influx of pure truth if it is not in line with his previous knowledge. He must be willing to abandon his acquired knowledge in order to receive the pure truth …. And this will can only be mustered by a person who is as yet not convinced of the truth of his own knowledge. However, if he believes that he knows the truth he will hardly appeal for it, therefore it cannot be imparted to him either, his misguided knowledge cannot be disclosed and eradicated. To completely voluntarily submit himself to Me and to attentively listen to that which I reveal to him through My spirit …. is the only way in order to arrive at the truth ….

And thus the person must have profound faith, he must be firmly convinced that I Am able to convey the truth to him and will do so …. He must be convinced of the working of the spirit within him, of My direct activity in the human being, or he will not enter into solitude and carefully listen to that which My spirit reveals to him. To consciously listen within is therefore another condition which has to be met in order to hear Me. For the spirit’s voice is gentle and delicate and can only be heard by someone who completely withdraws himself from the world, who listens within, thus who establishes contact with the spiritual kingdom, with Me as the Giver of truth, as the Father-Spirit Whose share rests as a spiritual spark in his soul …. He must allow the spirit within himself to speak and prior to this shape his soul such that it becomes receptive to the outpouring of the spirit …. And any person will partake in an abundance of knowledge if he fulfils these conditions, if he sincerely strives for the truth and requests it from Me as the eternal Truth. For it is My will to convey the truth to people, I do not want them to live in spiritual darkness, I want to draw them into the spiritual realm, and this is only possible by imparting and receiving the pure truth, which alone leads to Me because it also originates from Me. And anyone who searches in this way will have the right thoughts, he will penetrate profound knowledge, the spiritual sphere which will remain closed to all those who search elsewhere, because this is My will. The prayer for enlightenment of the spirit alone is no guarantee for its working if the other conditions are not observed as well of which I, however, will not let go because one depends on the other …. because a spiritual gift can only be offered if My law is complied with, which is fixed for eternity ….

Amen

Request from power …. humility – grace ….

B.D. 3616 from November 30th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

Don’t rely too much on your own strength but humbly pray for strength and grace from God so that you can fulfil your earthly task. Recognize the hardship of the time, recognize the low state of the souls and know that people lack strength and grace from above or they would never reach this deep degree of maturity of their souls. For with God’s strength the human being inevitably progresses upwards. But anyone who trusts too much in his own strength does not notice that he is completely powerless to develop spiritually, for he only uses the vitality he constantly has at his disposal for as long as he lives on earth for his earthly life. But he lacks spiritual strength if he does not request it from God, which requires profound humility and realization of his weakness. God comes to the aid of the weak and humble, He strengthens him and lifts him up to Himself. But he who believes himself to be strong does not stretch out his hands in supplication, he does not see the father’s hand stretching out to him, but he goes his way alone, he believes to reach the aim alone and without help. But the aim is not God, the aim is not light, but his path leads into darkness, because the eternal light does not illuminate him, because the light cannot shine where it is not desired. Serious desire, however, is only expressed through humble prayer, and only when man recognizes his inadequacy does he become small and humble …. but if he feels great and strong he exalts himself, he does not recognize himself, he is unaware of his powerless state, which is the result of the former rebellion against God. The state of ignorance, however, is also a spiritual low, which requires great earthly hardship in order to be remedied. For through earthly adversity the human being often learns to recognize his lack of strength, through earthly adversity he becomes small and humble, and then he finds the path to God to Whom he humbly submits himself in prayer for help …. If earthly adversity achieves this, it will have been a blessing, and the human being will thank God in eternity that He so visibly made him aware of his own weakness in order to induce him to pray humbly. For only the grace flowing towards him brings about his ascent development, but this is only accessible to the one who humbly asks for it, thus opens himself up to it through prayer. For without the supply of spiritual strength the human being will never reach ascent, no matter how powerful he may be on earth …. The soul will remain weak and incapable of developing if it does not receive help from above. However, help can only be given to the person asking for help, otherwise he would be forced to develop upwards, which is against God’s order and thus could never result in anything perfect. And until people recognize this, until they lie on the ground and stretch out their hands to God, to their father of eternity, the influx of divine strength and grace cannot touch them, and the earthly adversity cannot be alleviated either. People can be powerful if they avail themselves of the strength from God, which is at their unlimited disposal …. yet they prefer to go their own way; they believe to possess strength themselves and to be able to master all obstacles in life. And this is the inheritance of the one who thought he could defeat God, who also thought himself strong enough to deprive God of strength and overthrow Him. And as long as the human being still carries this inheritance within himself, as long as he does not recognize that all strength must first flow to him from the eternal source of strength, he will be weak despite his awareness of strength and will not be able to force anything. And only the state of complete helplessness must bring him to his senses so that he turns to the source of strength, the source of strength from eternity, requesting and expecting help from there. Only then will his path go upwards, only then will he distance himself from the one who believes himself to be powerful and yet is completely subject to the will of the one Who is strength in Himself and distributes it alone according to His discretion ….

Amen

Spiritual turning point …. divorce of the spirits ….

B.D. 3617 from December 1st 1945, taken from Book No. 46

A spiritual turning point has been decided in My eternal plan of salvation as soon as the spiritual development on earth comes to a complete standstill or experiences a decline due to the human being’s free will, as a result of which the course of development is interrupted and continues again in a different form. This process will always signify a spiritual turning point, in that the more highly developed spiritual will now be placed into a state where it can work and create without being hindered by lower beings, where therefore in spiritual terms the struggle is weaker or completely eliminated, where the earth is only inhabited by the embodied beingness which belongs to Me, and thus the connection from earth to Me, to the spiritual kingdom, is always and constantly established, which signifies spiritual elevation. Such a turning point is also now imminent but still presupposes a hard battle in which spirits have to separate and decide. There is a great spiritual decline, which can be seen in the behaviour of humanity, in its unkindness of thought and action. The time has come when the decision in My eternal plan of salvation has to be carried out, because humanity itself causes the spiritual low, because it has completely distanced itself from Me and makes its upward development impossible. This state cannot last long because it completely contradicts My law of eternity which demands and favours constant ascent development. Therefore I have to separate the beingness which is willing and strives upwards from the beingness which more strongly develops its drive downwards and interrupts the course of upward development in free will. I must deprive it of every possibility of sinking even further back and bind it again in a new form adapted to its state of maturity, so that it strides upwards in a state of compulsion …. Hence a spiritual turning point occurs, a conclusion of an old and beginning of a new redemption epoch, a passing away of the old earth, i.e. of the creations on it, and the forming of a new earth with entirely new creations which again serve the bound spiritual’s ascent development. My will separates people of a low degree of maturity from those who strive upwards and long for Me, so that they will live together in a time of deepest peace and most blissful harmony and learn to regard the earth as a spiritual school, as a means of education of high value for the spiritual which is still bound in form, so that they will find their beatitude in spiritual striving already on earth and no longer need to fear everything evil, lowly, because it is banished for a long time and does not find access to people. And this is a spiritual turning point which can only occur when a complete purification has taken place, which is certainly foreseen in My eternal plan of salvation but which also demands its time, so that every spiritual being is offered the opportunity to decide …. (to separate himself) from the opposing power of his own free will and to strive towards Me by using My strength. If this opportunity is disregarded, the spiritual being will inevitably belong to the one that is judged in the end, which is condemned to a new course of development through creation for the purpose of final redemption. And this spiritual turning point must also be an explanation to people in the last days for the great adversity, for the extraordinary working of My spirit and for the miracles at the end of days when I Myself will come in the clouds to fetch them home into the kingdom of peace, who remain faithful to Me even in the most difficult time because they recognize in Me their father from eternity ….

Amen

Free will decision …. church organisation ….

B.D. 3618 from December 2nd 1945, taken from Book No. 46

The human being’s decision of will has to be made by himself, i.e. the human being’s will cannot be directed by either good or evil forces but he can only be influenced by both sides to decide in one direction. And therefore the transmission of God’s word, of Christ’s teaching, can only ever be regarded as an influence on a person, for it is up to him to decide whether to accept or reject it. And thus every ecclesiastical organisation can only ever be regarded as a means to guide the human will in the right direction; but it can never claim to be the aim of right thinking and will …. thus the purpose can certainly be achieved through membership of such an organisation but membership is never already evidence of a correctly directed will, which is why human striving has to start in every religious community itself to give the will the right direction. For the human being can fulfil all requirements imposed on him by an ecclesiastical organisation, but this can be education and habit where his own will is still switched off. It can be an outward observance of Christ’s teaching, a fulfilment of duties which lack deep love, even though they are carried out out of obedience to the church. A right decision of the will demands a mental immersion in spiritual questions and only then a conscious opinion on them. Blind obedience, on the other hand, is not a decision of the will, it is rather a shutting out of free will and therefore cannot bring about any spiritual success. And therefore people are often forced to take a stand insofar as they are led into doubt by God’s love as to the truth of what is presented to them. Again and again the word of God is brought to them so that they shall find contradictions between what Jesus Christ taught on earth and what an ecclesiastical organisation sometimes represents …. so that the contradictions will stimulate them to think and thus the activity of the will will lead to a free decision. For time on earth should not pass by unused, which, however, is the case when a person leaves spiritual knowledge unexamined, when he has been pushed into a school of thought and does not make any effort to examine it for its truth. No one can lay claim to unconditional attainment of aims by belonging to a church organization, his will must first have become active itself by mentally dealing with everything he is taught and again demanded of him …. And the word of God will always be his guide, he will learn to distinguish the voice of God from the voice of the world, he will be able to judge God’s work and additional human work and then also decide correctly, as is his task on earth ….

Amen

Redemption process …. eternities …. hell – damnation ….

B.D. 3619 from December 4th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

The spiritual’s process of redemption lasts as long as the spiritual itself needs it ….. Thus it cannot be said to take the same length of time but every entity determines it itself through the severity of its resistance, through its will to allow itself to be redeemed. And therefore eternities can pass before this process is finished, and several redemption periods can be necessary; but one epoch can also suffice for the spiritual being’s complete redemption as soon as it is willing and consciously strives for redemption in the last stage of development.

This last stage can be lived through by the spiritual being sooner or later in a redemption period, for here too the will of the spiritual being in the bound state is decisive, even though this will is not free. The being certainly has to carry out certain activities, it cannot fight against divine order, but it can willingly comply with this activity, it can strive for a loosening of its bondage itself; and then it does not need such a long time for its ascent development in the state of compulsion and can all the sooner enter the last stage with freedom of will where it finally has to decide whether it is willing to serve in love and of its own free will or falls back into resistance against God …. And this is why a being which ascended quickly in the preliminary stage can prolong the process of redemption itself through an unused earthly life as a human being by then having to continue it in the kingdom of the beyond under considerably more difficult conditions. Eternities can pass again in the spiritual kingdom before it can enter the kingdom of light; there is also the possibility that it will sink deeper and finally have to walk the path through creation again, in bound will …. that therefore a second redemption period is necessary for this beingness and also several in order to reach the aim once. The spiritual being, which remains in hard resistance to God, needs a far longer period of time for its redemption. It is held in hard matter, it already needs eternities for its ascent development in the state of compulsion, but this also once leads to the last stage as man where it has to pass the last test of will. Even then there is still the danger of a standstill or decline, but also the possibility of complete redemption. But the latter will become smaller and smaller the further a redemption period has progressed. It is evident that the resistance against God has not yet been broken despite endless long captivity before, it is evident in humanity’s spiritual low, in its unbelief and in a life without connection with God. But people who nevertheless reach their aim at this time have to endure strong struggles as compensation for their infinitely long resistance before, yet they also have to expect exceedingly strong strength and grace on God’s part, Who assists the spiritual in immense love in order to lead it to the aim. But the beingness which fails inevitably takes the course of development once again without being given the opportunity to mature in the beyond, for it no longer reaches the degree of maturity which requires an ascent development in the beyond. Rather, it is in the power of satan, thus it has already sunk so far that only the binding in the firmest matter …. a renewed course through creation in a state of compulsion, can help this spiritual being to reduce its distance from God and thus also the total lack of strength, which is the result of the distance from God. And thus it is possible that several periods of development are necessary to lead a being to the aim, and that is why people also speak of eternal damnation, of hell and death, because they are periods of time which, according to human judgement, last eternities, which the human being’s intellect cannot grasp with its concept of time and which therefore also explain God’s merciful love, with which He tries to influence people at all times and especially in the time of the end in order to protect them from such a repeated earthly progress, in order to guide them into the state of maturity which enables them to enter the kingdom of the beyond in order to continue their development there. For once the time God has granted the spiritual being for redemption has expired, and a new period begins according to the eternal plan of salvation, which is the basis of all events and only has the redemption of the unfree spiritual as its aim ….

Amen

Severe hardship before the last rescue mission ….

B.D. 3620 from December 5th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

And thus I guide you along a path which, although indeed hard and stony, will definitely come to an end at the goal which you should reach on earth. You will yet experience fearful hours and have to come ever closer to Me, you will witness much misery in your environment and often ask yourselves why I allow such despair …. you will experience serious hardship yourselves and call upon Me fearfully, but your call shall not be in vain. I will always be ready to help when the hardship has reached its limit, as I have promised you, because I protect you from the worst, since you are My Own and want to serve Me and therefore, as My workers, also have the benefit of My assured protection. Come what may, do not give up, because whatever My will allows to happen is necessary for the soul of people who are near to you and cannot find Me. But when the time is right I will intervene …. I will leave no stone unturned in order to win over more souls before I start the last rescue mission before the end, because many will lose their earthly lives and I still want to preserve the lives of their souls so that they can enter the spiritual realm with a glimmer of awareness.

This is the purpose of the severe hardship before the end. And you will have to witness it, if only up to an endurable extent for you. Hatred and human unkindness are the initiators of adversity, they cannot be content, they do not want to live in peace, they incite hatred by any means and thus force people into severe difficulties. They are ruled by Satan and are his willing servants. No house will remain unaffected by hostile actions, no human being will be spared suffering, and blessed is he who takes his refuge in Me ….He will be helped and time and again he will be guided by My strong hand, time and again his path will light up and the goal become visible, which will give him joyous hope to courageously overcome all adversity. Whoever takes My hand and lets himself be guided by it need not fear no matter how severe the hardship may be …. Whoever calls upon Me I will hear and not leave him without assistance. Because I gave you My Word that I will protect and look after you, thus you may trust Me with blind faith and accept everything that happens to you. Because My will shall end all hardship at the right time ….

Amen

‘Whoever sees Me sees the Father ….’

B.D. 3621 from December 6th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

Whoever sees Me sees the Father, because the Father and I are one …. I brought the Word to people but they did not recognise it as God’s Word, as the expression of His infinite love for His living creations. They looked at it as human word, given to them by Me from Myself, because they were dark inside and did not know about God’s working within the human being …. Hence they could no longer hear God’s voice themselves, which could have provided evidence to them of God’s presence, of His essence and his close relationship with people. I, however, wanted to return this knowledge to them, I wanted to introduce them to the strength of love and faith, so that they might become noticeably aware of God’s presence if they heeded My teaching …. I came to them as a mediator sent by God to proclaim His Word to people of good will in accordance with His instruction. The eternal Father-Spirit took abode in Me to visibly work through Me …. Everything I said and did was His work, His will, His strength and His love …. I was merely the form through which God expressed Himself, or His presence would have been unbearable for the people who were living in profound spiritual darkness …. And the form which veiled the Father-Spirit also belonged to Him, for everything within Me aspired towards the Father-Spirit, albeit it was a mortal shell like any other human being …. But because of the spirit within Itself It became immortal ….

I was Jesus, the man, but only in My external appearance, because everything in and about Me was spiritualised by love, it was united with the eternal love to which I was inseparably connected since eternity. God as a spirit is not visible to human beings, nevertheless He made Himself visible to them in Me as a person, He adopted My physical garment and showed Himself in it to people, identifying Himself as wisdom, love and omnipotence. And to those who believed in Me My work on earth gave evidence of the Deity through miracles, which were only possible to God and which My will could accomplish because God was in Me, and thus His will, wisdom and strength permeated Me …. Hence there was no further separation between God and My mortal body, It had become one with Him, He occupied it completely, He Himself walked on earth in My external form, which in turn was a work of His love in order to make Himself accessible to people …. And I brought His Word to them …. He Himself spoke through Me, He, the eternal Word Himself, had become flesh in order to make Himself heard by people. Because they no longer knew the mystery of eternal love, the eternal Father-Spirit, Whose Word establishes the bond with people ….

They no longer knew about the strength of the Word which draws everything towards Itself when it can become effective in a person …. They did not know that every human being could hear the divine Word Itself in himself if he shaped himself to love in accordance with God’s will, in order to receive the divine love Itself …. For this reason God came to earth Himself, and He brought them the knowledge again which should release the people from their darkness …. And people did not recognise Him, they pursued Me, Who sheltered the Divine inside of Me, as a human being …. And I had to allow it to happen in order to safeguard their free will. I brought the Word to them but they did not accept it, and they did not recognise in Me the One Who permeated Me completely …. They saw Me but not God in Me, Who did not conceal Himself from their view but performed signs and miracles in order to make the blind see again …. But to those who believed He revealed Himself in His love, wisdom and omnipotence …. And they saw Him rise to heaven in full glory, they saw His shell spiritualising itself before their eyes and in radiating light ascend to the kingdom which had been its home since eternity ….

Amen

The Ascension of Christ …. Transfiguration ….

B.D. 3622 from December 7th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

My life on earth was a path of love which I concluded with My death on the cross …. My body was on earth, that is, it was subject to all natural laws, My soul was with God, it lived a spiritual life and thereby became powerful enough to conquer the body, to likewise make it strive towards God which subsequently spiritualised soul and body, so that the external form sheltering God, the eternal Father in all fullness, was no longer an obstacle for His working. The external form could therefore no longer succumb to physical death, because only matter sheltering immature spiritual substances is mortal, i.e. changeable within itself, but not completely spiritualised substance. Hence soul and body were able to enter the spiritual kingdom in a perfect state, they were translucent and, being permeated by light and strength, were able to leave Earth, which was a process My disciples were allowed to witness as it occurred before their eyes, so that they were able to behold God’s glory in order to receive strength for their mission on earth which subsequently commenced for the sake of humanity’s redemption. Their task was to inform people of My act of Salvation, of My way of life, My teaching, of My excruciating suffering and death on the cross and of My resurrection and ascension …. And for this mission they had to be prepared, they had to live a life of love themselves, they had to be profoundly faithful, having recognised in Me the Father of eternity, they had to accept My teaching wholeheartedly within themselves in order to be able to pass it on; they had to be guided into truth in order to comprehend My sacrificial death, and thus they had to be living followers and able to preach with innermost conviction. And for this reason they were also allowed to witness My ascension on earth, the last sign of My glory, My divinity, I was able to give to them as a human being, which completed My life on earth but which must remain alive for My Own for as long as the world exists. For My transfiguration, as the fulfilment of My teaching, was indeed comprehensible to My disciples yet only understandable to people if they followed Me, lived a life of selfless love and thereby became able to grasp the truth and accept profoundly divine wisdom. When they know that the purpose of earthly life is the spiritualisation of soul and body and the result of it is brightest permeation by light they will also find My ascension credible. For this reason My only purpose of earthly life was the preaching of love, for this reason the Word became flesh, in order to show people the right way, to exemplify a life of love and to encourage them to follow Me …. Only love achieves a spiritualisation, and only love delivers the human race from death and awakens it to eternal life ….

"He who confesses Me before the world …."

B.D. 3623 from December 8th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

Whoever confesses Me before the world, him I will also confess before My father …. And thus you will be forced by the world, by worldly-minded people, to confess Me or to deny Me. And then you must stand firm; you must know that I likewise demand this confession and decide for Me or the world. For you cannot enter the father’s kingdom if you have not confessed your allegiance to Him on earth. This decision is demanded of you so that My working in My own will become evident. It is the last opportunity for those who are still undecided, who are weak-willed, to join you if they recognize the strength that lies in faith in Me and My name. Furthermore, the small circle of those who stand up for Me shall be separated from those who deny Me, and this can only happen through open confession before the world, so that those who want to remain faithful to Me unite and those who stand against Me in the last battle on this earth are recognizable. For the small flock of believers must promise each other comfort and strength, they must refresh themselves with the source of grace which My love has made accessible to them for this difficult time, and they must consciously await the end, My coming and the last judgment. Anyone who openly confesses before the world carries the sign of the cross before him, and under this sign he will also be victorious, even though the adversary’s camp seems to be far superior to him. And the heavenly father prepares a dwelling place for him in His kingdom …. I will bring him in Myself on the day of judgment, I will confess him before My father as He confessed Me before the world ….

Amen

‘Become as little children ….’

B.D. 3624 from December 10th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

Become as little children and take refuge with Me in every adversity …. and don’t be afraid, for your heavenly Father does not allow anything to happen that is not beneficial for you. Have faith and trust in Me, your Father of eternity, that I will hold My hands protectively over you and simply regard every ailment of the body as a caring way of helping your soul. However, you should know that the body’s adversity, too, will be cured by Me if you firmly believe in it and recognise My Fatherly love in everything, regardless of what happens. Be as carefree as children and leave it to the Father to take care of you, just make sure you fulfil your heavenly Father’s will and My Fatherly love will take hold of you and draw you to My heart. Don’t ask and speculate fearfully what might become of you, but remain calm and simply wait for the Father’s help if adversity weighs you down. Totally rely on Me Who guides you wherever you go. Your strength rests in your childlike trust and humble prayer, for I will not disappoint this and grant your prayer at all times. Yet do not worry and doubt …. My Fatherly love will save you from every danger and the call of My child will never go unheeded …. But in order to become as children you must relinquish all resistance, you must only ever want Me to lead you by the hand and you must follow Me willingly and never want to take different paths …. And thus you must pray with faithful trust and devotedly rely on Me and then regard every happening as My will …. For it is My will, nothing happens against My will if you commend your problems to Me. Only someone who acts on his own, without having appealed for My blessing and My support, activates his will with appropriate results, yet not always in his favour. I cannot grant My help to him because he would not recognise it as My help but regard it as his own merit. Yet for My children I will even out their every path, even if it appears difficult to travel. Just hand yourselves over to My guidance with complete trust and you will always feel a loving Fatherly hand which will guide you safe and sound through every calamity of this world. And always draw comfort and strength from My Word …. Let the Father speak to His children, and accept every Word of love so that it will impel you to love in turn. Never let the Father’s voice go unheeded but be glad that you may hear it, that the Father thereby reveals His love for you, and follow Him and His Word with joyful zest …. And you will gain My approval, you will feel My Fatherly love increasingly more, you will no longer fear any adversity and be safe and secure in My heart ….

Amen

B.D. 3625 from December 12th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

My eternal decision included the end, and thus it will come without fail when people’s low spiritual level demands it …. The end will therefore be preceded by a time when people distance themselves from Me of their own free will, so that I can no longer influence them with My strength of love because they will prevent it themselves. But where My strength of love stops, i.e. where it is no longer able to affect the spirit, that is where life …. activity …. will also come to an end. The spiritual being will descend into a state of solidification. This will be the result of insufficient strength, to which it will have shut itself off. The human being as such will still be in possession of vital energy, but since he will be using it in a completely wrong way during the last days, since he, instead of striving towards Me, will strive away from Me completely of his own free will, I will also have to take his vital energy away from him, which will therefore signify the physical end of countless spiritual beings which are embodied as human beings on earth and which, deprived of their final form of development, will subsequently completely solidify again, thus descend into weakness and darkness, until My love gives them a form once again in which their process of development can start anew. The spiritual being cannot live, thus be active, without an influx of strength, yet this strength will not flow to it against its will while it is in a state of free will. At the start of its incarnation as a human being the latter is certainly weak-willed, or his will is still undecided, and he can use the vital energy he is granted as a gift of grace in any way …. But once people have reached the lowest point when they no longer make use of this vital energy in order to attain spiritual strength, when they consciously resist the influx of strength from Me, I will also withdraw the energy of life from them …. They will have to repeat the process of development once more, which starts again with an utterly weak state in the most solid form, in hard matter, the overcoming of which takes an infinitely long time again …. I would like to spare the spiritual beings this long captivity, and therefore all conceivable means will be used by My love beforehand, yet people are beyond learning ….

If My servants explain their spiritual hardship to them, if they are reminded of the serious consequences of their unbelief , if their attention is drawn to the shortly approaching end, they close their ears. They don’t believe in My eternal plan of Salvation, they don’t believe in Me and My never-ending love and thus they precipitate the end themselves …. They not only remain on their low spiritual level but continue to descend ever further …. Their own will hastens the dissolution of that which shelters spirits, just as their own will lets the human being return to that which his soul had already overcome long before …. It is not My but people’s own will which determines the end, yet I have foreseen this will for eternity and thus will constrain it once again because freedom of will is being misused. Anyone who has My Word knows about My love, he knows about My plan of Salvation to redeem the souls and he also foresees the end, for he recognises the spiritual hardship. Yet anyone who does not recognise this hardship is not imbued by My love, he is still in spiritual darkness and can hardly step out from this into the light of day. For he needs My Word to do so, the light which illuminates him and enriches his knowledge …. And he will understand the physical adversity of the time, which is caused by the immense spiritual hardship. Anyone who has My Word will expect the end with profound faith, for everything will come to pass as I proclaimed in Word and Scripture. Therefore, pay attention to My Word when it is imparted to you through My messengers …. pay attention to the Word which is conveyed to you from above, which guarantees you the absolute truth which originates from Me, the Giver of truth, and which I impart to you with all My love, so that you will find the path to Me through the Word, so that you will not be lost to My kingdom, so that you need not go through the process of development again, which would mean indescribable agony for your souls …. Pay attention to the Word so that you will belong to My Own, who will be spared at the end in order to enter the kingdom of peace, as I have promised ….

Amen

Preparation time for workers of the lord ….

B.D. 3626 from December 14th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

Anyone who wants to be active on earth on My behalf, who wants to work for My kingdom in the last days before the end, must also take the path I guide him on, which is not always smooth but requires strength in order to overcome the obstacles. For he shall fight for Me and My kingdom, and therefore he must become strong himself, he must be of strong will and strong faith, he must recognize Me and My might, so that help will be granted to him again and again when his path is arduous and he is in danger of slackening. He must realize that he never walks alone but always by the hand of the one Who can remove every obstacle, Who safely leads him over cliffs and rocks, Who does not let him stumble and safely guides him to the aim. This realization gives him strong faith, and then he will also be able to work for Me and fearlessly and undauntedly stand up for Me and My name …. My fighters will constantly have to pass tests of faith beforehand, again and again earthly adversity will approach them, yet again and again they will be helped because I want to make Myself known to them so that they will believe …. Yet the will to believe must be present, otherwise My often miraculous help would mean a compulsion to believe and this is not My will. My servants shall place themselves in My hand with complete faith, they shall allow themselves to be guided without hesitation and without resistance. They should only believe …. that I am always and constantly with them, that their call always reaches My ear, that My love always takes care of them and that nothing can happen to them but what My will does not allow, but that everything is a blessing for them if they humbly accept it from My hand. For I alone know what will benefit them for the salvation of their souls, for the strengthening of their faith and for the training for the work they are to do in the coming time. And if they know that they are to be My helpers they will also leave the leadership to Me in complete trust and be able to work successfully for My kingdom. And therefore you must endure every situation in life and not forget which task still awaits you, you must always know that it is the time of preparation for your office in the last time before the end, which is only short but requires much strength, and for which I need you and therefore train you. The recognition of your task also guarantees that you will fulfil it, for then you will understand everything that concerns you in terms of suffering and adversity, you will also be able to see the help My love will always bring you and you will thereby attain unshakable faith. And then you will be true labourers for My kingdom, then you will fearlessly stand up for Me before the world, you will find the right words to say to your fellow human beings, you will always feel Me beside you and be filled with strength and, where your words only fall on not too hard ground, you will also be successful …. For many souls are still to be saved, help is still to be brought to many who are still undecided, and therefore I need servants who let Me speak through them, who are active on My behalf, who only carry out what My spirit tells them to do and who therefore must have profound faith in Me, My love, wisdom and omnipotence and who, through this faith, are so strong as to be able to resist the world and its desire. Yet the time is no more long, the end will come sooner than you expect, for the spiritual hardship is overwhelming …. And thus I bless My servants on earth who voluntarily submit themselves to Me, and I promise them My protection, whatever threatens them …. I guide them through all hardships and sufferings of life so that they will fight the final battle on earth under My guidance, from which they will emerge victorious as My fighters, as I have proclaimed in word and scripture ….

Amen

The souls’ purification process in the beyond ….

B.D. 3627 from December 15th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

The departed soul’s purification process in the beyond starts immediately after the decease of the body but in accordance with the soul’s will. Spiritually completely dark souls experience the darkness as agony, and this right from the start of the process, because it is intended to contribute towards the change of the soul’s will. Although the duration of this varies, it is always the principle of the purification process. God’s love constantly gives the soul the opportunity to change its will, but in the beyond it does not always recognise these methods as the working of God’s love, and yet they can soon lead to the goal providing the soul is not too obstinate. It has to purify itself completely before it can accept light, and until it can receive light it is in a state of torment, and thus the fate of an immature soul is lamentable. It can never receive too much help from people by means of loving intercession or mental instructions and advice to act with love. However, if the soul is not too obstinate it will constantly progress in its development, every torment melts the hard cover, it becomes receptive to help and will try to liberate itself, although occasionally it can take a very long time before the purification process is completed and the soul, as a recipient of light, is able to act with kindness.

But even more mature souls will still have to become more receptive to light, because the light can touch a soul at various degrees of intensity, depending on its state of perfection, which can reach an increasingly higher level. On entry into the spiritual realm the soul can already be so advanced in knowledge that it no longer needs to linger in dark surroundings, it is able to see and understand everything, it finds itself in a more or less brighter pool of light and thus is also able to work accordingly. And yet it still has to shape itself to receive more light. It still has to crystallise itself to utmost clarity and this again through loving work with needy souls, because devoted love for those unhappy souls will purify the soul and make it progressively more receptive to light, while due to its redeeming activity its own happiness intensifies at the same rate. As soon as a soul has the will to ascend it becomes diligently and untiringly active, and because of its will to help other suffering souls it constantly receives strength for its own happiness and sustained helpfulness. Always providing, of course, that it has overcome its weakness of will, that its engulfing impenetrable darkness is broken, that it is receptive to the merciful rays of light which God sends into the darkness, and that it wants to escape its dark state. Its struggle towards ascent, its torments and the darkness of its surrounding are taken into account as purifying factors, its layers dissolve, it becomes receptive to light and its ascent towards the light is assured. In accordance with the soul’s own will God’s continuous help enables it to ascend until, penetrated by light, it can work in the spiritual kingdom as is its destiny ….

Amen

Thoughts from the spiritual kingdom ….

B.D. 3628 from December 16th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

Thoughts flow to you from the spiritual kingdom, if you are spiritually minded and therefore also look for contact with the enlightened beings of the spiritual kingdom. Consequently, every thought can be a blessing for you provided you sincerely want to become enlightened, thus to know the truth. Yet in order to be taken care of by helpful spiritual beings it is also always necessary for you to conduct your life in accordance with God’s will, since you are also surrounded by forces of darkness which seek to lead your thoughts astray. And you yourselves reject or allow their access to you, depending on your conduct in life, on your will and your attitude towards God and towards good.

And therefore you have to seriously scrutinise yourselves whether you strive to live in keeping with God’s will, whether you want the truth. You must know that thoughts are the activity of spiritual beings in the beyond which they try to convey to you, and that you allow yourselves to be influenced by forces which you draw to yourselves by your way of life and your will. For this reason you have to observe your thoughts whether they lead towards God or divert you from believing in God. Every good thought teaching love and referring to God is the activity of good spiritual forces, and you should take it up and let yourselves be affected by it, for as soon as you pay attention to it, it will also shape your way of life and be beneficial for your soul.

But as soon as you pray to God for correct thinking, good spiritual beings will always be your teachers and guides, they will influence your thoughts and also try to transmit spiritual concepts which will heighten your maturity of soul; they will provide you with power of perception which will enable you to render the activity of evil forces ineffective by instantly recognising it as error and rejecting it. If you unite yourselves with God, if you live intending to please Him, then you will not have to fear evil spiritual forces which deceive your thoughts, for you give yourselves into the hands of good spiritual beings which will take loving care of you and direct your thoughts such that they will correspond to the truth and promote your spiritual development, because you strive for it yourselves ….

Amen

Presence of God in the word ….

B.D. 3629 from December 17th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

When you gather to receive My word you express your will to make contact with Me and thus I also come to you. And if you speak to each other and mention My name with love and reverence you will know that I Myself dwell with you, giving your thoughts the right direction, determining your words and thus working amongst you with My strength and My love. And if you are fully convinced of My presence, profound peace will enter your heart, for where I am there is peace and bliss. And thus you can make contact with Me at any time if you bring My word to your fellow human beings who want to accept it with a joyful heart, if you instruct them in My name so that they, too, will be convinced and delighted by My presence. Anyone who desires My word also desires Me Myself, and I will fulfil his desire. Every spiritual conversation which has My word as its basis draws Me to you, and I will always dwell amongst you and thus speak to you directly, albeit through a human mouth which proclaims My word. For he is merely the organ through which I speak to everyone, of which I make use so as not to make you unfree in faith. But wherever My word is offered in order to bring people to Me I will speak Myself and thus desire entrance into the hearts of those to whom My word is brought. Only the dead word will not bring you My presence, the word which is offered without love, which is only spoken as a form without inner spirit, which therefore is not My word but human thought material as long as the giver and receiver are not moved by love and desire for Me to offer and accept it. For where there is no love there is not My word either, and My presence is impossible. And therefore My word may not be offered schematically either; people must gather in desire and longing for Me, for My presence, which is assured to them through My word. They must sincerely desire to hear Me, they must pronounce My name with all reverence, they must let My spirit work in them by giving themselves to the effect of My word, and then they will also feel Me Myself close to them, they will recognize that I Myself am the word, that I Myself speak to them and thus dwell in the midst of those who desire to hear Me. And I bring you peace with My word, I will never leave you again and remain with you until the end of the world …. until all eternity ….

Amen

Cosmos …. Changes …. Catastrophe ….

B.D. 3630 from December 19th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

Whatever takes place in the cosmos is unknown to you, and neither will you ever ascertain the laws of nature in such depth that you will be able to determine when and how changes take place which, according God’s eternal plan of Salvation, must take place in order to prepare the work of Earth’s redevelopment. The events happening in nature will always take you by surprise, consequently, you will also unexpectedly be confronted by a powerful natural event, which is understandable to someone with spiritual vision but which remains incomprehensible to the majority of people because they fail to recognise the correlation between all happenings, including cosmic ones, with the spiritual development of people and all tangible beings, and because they have no knowledge of the approaching end and the transformation of a work of creation which is only meant to serve spiritual development and has become pointless now due to people’s God-opposing will. The preparations in nature proceed imperceptibly and people therefore pay little attention to them. And yet they would be able to observe many deviations which should make them suspicious if they were vigilant and allowed Creation to communicate with them more. Changes are occurring in the interior of the earth which will lead to eruptions. At first they will only partially break through in order to then, at a specific time, lead to a complete destruction of the earth’s surface, so that God’s eternal plan of Salvation can take the course His will had determined. Countless spiritual beings in the Earth’s interior will liberate themselves and God will give His approval, He will allow them to become active at a specific time, because their activity does not oppose His law of eternity …. And the Earth will tremble when these beings become active …. It will open up in places and thus clear the way for the beings to enter different shapes than before …. And where this activity takes place it will cause great changes on the Earth’s surface to the horror of the inhabitants who will be subject to a dreadful natural disaster …. However, this will only be a preliminary event for the subsequent total destruction of Earth; it will be a final wake up call for all those who survive it and an indication of the near end, which will have previously found no credence with people. Nevertheless, God’s language will be understandable to everyone who wants to understand it.

Everything that happens in the universe, including every cosmic change, is due to spiritual development, and even if people don’t understand it on account of their lack of knowledge they must nevertheless be affected by the activity of beings which are still constrained in the interior of the Earth and which strive towards liberation for the sake of their higher development. Countless human lives will fall victim to this eruption and enter the spiritual kingdom in a more or less mature state. Yet countless beings will also be released and be able to strive towards ascent in different forms. And so the immense event in nature is simultaneously a process of release after an infinitely long time of constraint within hard matter and a transition for the indwelling spiritual substance into less painful forms, but it also ends the process of development of spiritual beings in the last stage on earth which could have used their free will for their deliverance. No-one can predict this cosmic event in advance unless, in profound faith in God, he is informed of it by the spirit of God, for the divine laws of nature are not perceptible for people, so that the day and hour will always remain hidden until the first tangible manifestations announce themselves, but which will be ignored at first. Yet as soon as the day approaches, great restlessness will come upon all living beings, human beings and animals alike will inwardly feel it, and only spiritually awakened people will be able to explain it and yet not be listened to by the worldly-minded, who will never want to accept a destruction of Earth and thus be taken by complete surprise by the eruption of the natural elements …. And God will repeatedly announce this event, He will not leave people in ignorance as to what they can expect in time to come. Again and again He instructs His messengers to mention the forthcoming event. For the day will not be long in coming …. Any careful observer will also recognise the changes, and he will look upon it from a spiritual point of view, for the goal of everything that comes according to God’s eternal plan of Salvation relates to the spirits’ development, which is in danger and which God’s love wants to help ….

Amen

Marriage of the spirit with the father-spirit ….

B.D. 3631 from December 20th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

And so your spirit mates with My spirit, with the father-spirit, Whose share it is. And then you will be blissfully happy …. For a separation from Me is wretchedness, even though it cannot take place according to your imagination, for what is My share is also eternally inseparable from Me. And yet, you cannot be blissfully happy as long as you yourselves do not desire this unification of your spiritual spark with the father-spirit. For you will be blessed according to your will. If you believe that you can distance yourselves from Me and strive for this of your own free will, then My love cannot touch you either and I will give to you in accordance with this will. But if you strive towards Me then you enter the circuit of My love yourselves, and receiving love from Me always signifies bliss, more or less consciously for as long as you stay on earth, because the soul feels My strength of love and the body is less affected by it. Yet the soul always derives its benefit from it, for it increasingly enters the state which makes the reception of light and strength possible and shapes it into a being of light which, after the body’s passing away, can carefree enter the kingdom of light in order to be immeasurably blissful. Only a union with Me can bring you this bliss, and the more intimately you strive for this marriage with Me the more I can fulfil this desire and nourish you with love and strength. The more you will be able to work with love and draw Me ever more intimately to you, because I Myself am love and every work of love results in a union with Me. And therefore only love can result in a union with Me, and if you want to become blissfully happy you must completely shape yourselves into love, you must live as I have taught you, as I have exemplified life to you on earth, you must let the spark of love within you become a bright flame which seizes everything that is accessible to it …. Your heart must feel nothing but love and your actions must be motivated by love, then you will always be united with Me, your spirit will flow towards Mine, it will merge with the eternal father-spirit and you will remain inseparably united with Me for all eternity, enjoying supreme bliss, working in abundance of light and strength and thus being active in creating and shaping for your own happiness, yet always working in Me and with Me, from Whom all light, all strength and all bliss has emanated since eternity.

Bondage under satan and damnation ….

B.D. 3632 from December 21st 1945, taken from Book No. 46

You will be enslaved for eternity if you sell yourselves to satan for the sake of earthly reward. You will be unfree and powerless again for an infinitely long time, for as soon as satan is bound, all spiritual beings which made themselves in bondage to him of their own free will will also lose their freedom. And this again means an infinitely long time of captivity which is agonizing for you and involves unspeakable suffering because lack of freedom and powerlessness does not correspond to the original state which was your share before the apostasy from Me. Yet if you profess My adversary you will also have to accept the fate My adversary has prepared for you …. darkness, powerlessness and bound will …. and thus through torments for eternities. The path of ascent lies brightly and clearly before you if only you want to take it, and you will not lack strength either, yet you must approach Me for it but not surrender to the one who wants your ruin. He entices you with earthly pleasures, with material goods, in order to win your souls, but I promise you spiritual goods, I want to lead you into the kingdom of peace where many dwellings are prepared for you if only you comply with My call, despise the world and only strive for Me and your spiritual well-being. But if you don’t listen to Me, if you pay attention to My adversary’s voice and let yourselves be beguiled by his promises, My flow of strength cannot touch you, and the path to ascent is too difficult for you if you don’t take hold of My hand and let yourselves be guided. I want to give you eternal freedom but you prefer servitude under My adversary’s power, you choose the path down into his kingdom yourselves and thereby make the eternal home inaccessible to you, which offers you glories of an incomparable kind. Yet your will is free, and if you desire servitude you will also have to bear it, you will have to go into captivity for a long time so that one day there will be the possibility again that you will turn to Me of your own free will, that you will believe My words and want to let yourselves be redeemed from satan’s bondage, who is and will remain My adversary for eternities before he, too, will bow down to My will and all evil will be completely redeemed. My admonition, however, resounds over and over again …. don’t sell your souls for the sake of earthly goods, strive to acquire the spiritual kingdom for yourselves, strive towards Me and let yourselves be guided upwards by My hand, so that you will escape the dominion of the one who wants to destroy you forever ….

Fearless work for the kingdom of God and courageous confession ….

B.D. 3633 from December 22nd 1945, taken from Book No. 46

In My name you shall be active on earth …. Don’t shrink back when the world approaches you, commanding you to deny Me and My name, but know that I am stronger than earthly rulers, that I can also break their power in an instant. And therefore profess Me and courageously stand up for Me and My teaching, for this is necessary in the coming time, that people will be instructed, that they will be enlightened as to the disaster they are facing if they don’t adhere to Me, if they don’t fulfil My commandments and believe in Me and My act of salvation. You will find little faith, little understanding and have to reap much scorn and ridicule, you will often preach to deaf ears, for people are no longer in contact with Me and therefore do not recognize Me when I speak to them through you, and everything you say seems unreal, fantastic to them and therefore they do not accept it. But you should stand all the firmer in your faith in Me, you should shape yourselves ever more powerfully through constant activity of love and fear nothing that approaches you from outside. If you remain in spiritual contact with Me and My kingdom you will feel strength within yourselves and thus be industrious workers for Me. I can only rarely work through willing servants who are devoted to Me, I only rarely find open hearts which accept My word and take it to heart. And therefore I need every human being in the coming time to work for Me and My kingdom. You will likewise only be able to fulfil the earthly demands made on you with My support, and this shall be constant proof to you that I am with you at all times, that you have a support in Me which is stronger than earthly power. And therefore, if the desire of these is directed against My commandments, if it applies to the denial of My name, then offer resistance and don’t fear that it could weaken, that the world is stronger and could bring you down. For I am constantly with you, I speak through you, I guide you all ways and lead you to those whom I Myself want to influence through you. Be courageous confessors of My name, represent My teaching to the world, preach love and reproach people that unkindness and hatred will plunge them into ruin, that they are the signs of satan’s activity to which they will fall hopelessly if they don’t repent and accept My teaching, if they don’t live according to My teaching, keep My commandments and try to establish contact with Me. Speak what your heart tells you and don’t be afraid, for it is I Who speaks through you and Who will also protect you in every danger of body and soul. And if My will allows you to lose your earthly life, you will truly exchange it for a life in eternity which will fully compensate you for everything, for My love will reward you for your work for My kingdom for all eternity ….

Amen

‘Did you not know, that I must be in My Father’s house ….’

B.D. 3634 from December 23rd 1945, taken from Book No. 46

Listen to the voice of the spirit: Every person shall shape himself such that the Father can take abode in him, thus, he himself shall become God’s house in which the Father can be effective. You all carry the divine spiritual spark within you which is therefore My share, hence I lay dormant in you waiting to be awakened through your loving activity and heartfelt bond with Me …. However, as long as you remain inactive you will not feel My presence, even though the spiritual spark rests in you. It can only become effective if you shape yourselves into a receiving vessel for Me Myself, only then will I be active in My house, then I will be able to dwell in you and instruct you according to absolute truth. Then I will be in My Father’s house …. then wisdom will be where love exists …. Then you will have become a house of God yourselves, which shelters the Holiest of all, which God Himself takes as a dwelling place …. I will be with you and never again will you walk alone on earth, but you will always and forever feel My presence and be permeated by My spirit, which will guide you into all truth, which will teach you just as I have taught in My Father’s house …. For when I became wisdom through love I had to be constantly active on earth …. Dispensing love and wisdom, I had to give to other people what I Myself had received because I wanted to help them attain beatitude. And thus I had to be in that which belongs to My Father, where I was able to proclaim His Word, where people gathered in order to hear His Word …. Consequently, God’s house will always be where His Word is taught …. where it is either externally offered to people or is inwardly perceived …. wherever the Father can be effective, that is, where love makes people receptive for the wisdom from Me …. For I always want to be active in My house, and My house consists of the hearts of people who want to accept Me and thus shape themselves into love so that I Myself, the eternal Love, can unite with them. My house is wherever My spirit can manifest itself …. but without the working of My spirit you will linger in empty halls even if you have chosen a place where you assume you will be able to find Me …. I can only be where My Father is, and the profundity of My Word can only be heard where love exists …. However, I Myself Am the Word and if you want to hear Me you must shape your hearts to become receptive, you must change yourselves into love and then open the doors for Me so that I can enter into your heart and make your heart My dwelling place wherever you may be ….

Amen

Significance of the act of Salvation ….

B.D. 3635 from December 24th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

And remember the One Who redeemed you from all sins …. His act of Salvation is of such momentous significance that you cannot be exhorted strongly enough to cast your mind back to it. You must always bear in mind that you would be lost for an infinitely long time had Jesus Christ not taken your guilt of sin upon Himself through his crucifixion in order to redeem you. However, you will have to profess Him yourselves if you want to partake of the blessings He acquired for you through His death. You have to believe in Him and consciously place yourselves underneath His cross, you must live with and for Jesus Christ, i.e., in memory of Him accomplish your every action, be helpful and thus comply with His teaching of love, in order to makes yourselves worthy of His gift of grace, to make yourselves worthy of His love, which wanted to protect you from an infinitely long time of torment and suffering in the beyond. The divine Redeemer has mercy upon all sinners …. He carried their guilt and suffered and died for it, He sacrificed Himself as atonement, because He loved people and wanted to lessen their immense spiritual hardship.

And thus He offered people a gift, the magnitude of which they cannot to judge on earth, and He only asks for their acknowledgement of His act of love, their acknowledgment of Himself and their conscious avowal of His crucifixion …. He asks them to keep Him in mind at all times …. People should not forget this, they should always remember that without Him they would be lost for an infinitely long time …. Hence He approaches people time and again by reminding them of Him …. time and again He tries to direct their eyes to Him, time and again the person, as a bearer of the cross himself, is admonished to remember Him, and every suffering is intended to draw his attention to the One, Who took all sins upon Himself and constantly helps people to carry their suffering as well if they, in profound faith in the divine Redeemer, burden Him with it and appeal to Him for grace and love …. People don’t carry their suffering without merit, Jesus Christ, however, was entirely without sin and took humanity’s guilt of sin upon Himself, He therefore carried a far heavier burden upon His shoulders, a cross which was so immensely heavy that He almost broke down under it, nevertheless, He accomplished the act of Salvation since His love for humanity was great and gave Him the strength until the end ….

Bond of love …. Unification with God ….

B.D. 3636 from December 25th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

An indestructible bond is wound around God and the spiritual being which tries to join Him due to love. It will remain inseparably connected with Him, always coming closer to Him, forever striving towards Him, being seized by Him and in blissful happiness merging with the eternal Love, once the being has become perfect. This bond is the goal of all spiritual beings which once emerged from His strength. God is the eternal centre of Power from Whom everything originates and to Whom everything will return again according to God’s eternal order. Only that which has returned to God again is happy, it is perfect, permeated by strength and light and thus able to actively create and shape. This state will never ever be changed again, insofar as that the being’s beatitude will diminish, but it will constantly increase because perfection knows no limits, because God, as the supremely perfect Being, will always and ceaselessly be aspired to for all eternity. To be merged with the eternal Deity signifies participation in the shaping of works of creation, it signifies guidance and care for the spiritual beings which are sheltered in these creations; it signifies redemptive activity on the bound spiritual beings, it signifies bliss and harmonious striving for unification with equally mature beings and revelations of undreamt of splendours which immature beings are incapable of beholding.

Eternal life …. is not a state of weakness and darkness anymore but activity in light and an undreamt of abundance of strength. Jesus Christ promised this eternal life to those who believe in Him and keep His commandments, who, by fulfilling and complying with His teaching of love, establish the connection with God on earth already, the bond, which connects the soul with God ever more closely until it has entirely united with the eternal Love. And thus the human being must inevitably attain faith in Jesus Christ as the Redeemer of the world, otherwise the bond with God can never ever be established, for due to the being’s imperfection the distance is too vast and cannot be reduced by the being itself, since the distance from God signifies weakness at the same time. Jesus, however, acquired the strength on behalf of people through His death on the cross …. He descended to Earth in order to deliver people from their weakness of will and lack of strength and to show them the path which leads them to God while they are still on earth. However, without faith in Him and His act of Salvation the human being will never be able to overcome his lack of strength and weakness of will, he will never be able to lift himself up because God’s adversary keeps him down and wants to prevent his life in eternity. But anyone who believes in Jesus Christ shall be saved, he will live up to His commandments, he will make an effort to live a life of love and thereby receive the strength to establish the connection with God, and God will never let him fall again …. He will wind the bond of love around him and not allow it to slacken, instead it will embrace those who strive towards Him ever more tightly until they are inseparably united with Him ….

Amen

Soul food …. God's care for earthly needs ….

B.D. 3637 from December 26th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

The food of the soul shall be desired first, and to it shall be the desire of the heart …. and every earthly worry will become obsolete …. This is My condition which I set in order to be able to take care of you, in order to provide you with everything you need for the preservation of earthly life. I will gladly take care of you, yet you must also fulfil My will, you must make the salvation of your souls your first concern, for the sake of which I gave you earthly life. And your souls can only mature if you feed and water them, if you don’t let them starve during your earthly life. The soul must receive spiritual nourishment because it is spiritual, and this nourishment is constantly offered to it through My word. Therefore, if you accept My word in order to nourish your souls it will be able to perfect itself; it will receive strength which will enable it to mature. And therefore you must first desire spiritual nourishment, you must long for My word and hungrily accept it within yourselves, and you will fulfil the condition I set and can look forward to every day without worry …. I cover all your needs in helpfulness which is also clearly recognizable to you. My concern is only for your soul, yet you must tackle the work on it. I cannot shape your soul into perfection but your free will must accomplish this. The maturing of the soul is the aim and purpose of your earthly existence, and I will always help you to reach the aim. And thus, if you seriously strive to become perfect, you can only use all care for your spiritual well-being, and I will relieve you of earthly worries, I will give you everything you need. For I rejoice over My children if they accept the nourishment from heaven offered to them in their desire for Me, if they open their hearts hungering and thirsting in order to let themselves be satisfied by Me. And I now provide for them abundantly, spiritually and earthly …. He who hungers shall be fed, he who thirsts shall be watered, I will sustain the body until it departs from earth, until it has fulfilled its purpose of enabling the soul to mature. Therefore, don’t worry and be anxious but leave all earthly worries to Me, your father of eternity, Who will not let you go hungry if only you desire My word in your desire for Me, which is always offered to you if you hunger and thirst for it ….

Amen

Fighting against the truth …. erring teachers ….

B.D. 3638 from December 27th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

You must never allow yourselves to be captured by the adversary who wants to deprive you of your spiritual freedom through misguided teachings, who uses every trick in order to push you away from the truth, and who thus fights with means which give the appearance of truth and lead to the most blatant error. You must bear in mind that he will always fight against the truth, that he will always fight most fiercely where the truth tries to break through and that he will dress himself in the garment which serves his purpose …. that he himself appears as a proclaimer of truth in order to mislead people who are not yet permeated by the spirit of God but who strive for the truth. You must consider that it is often easy for him if people’s desire for truth is not entirely profound and thus he is not protected by beings of light from the activity of the one who fights against God, against the eternal truth …. Thus he will have much success through the will of people themselves who are more indifferent towards the pure truth from God, on the other hand, who are taken in by His adversary’s influence. For it depends on the will of the human being himself how far he penetrates the truth, and therefore it cannot be called to you urgently enough: Beware of those who pretend to bring you the truth and do not stand in the truth themselves …. Beware of those who believe they are called to teach and need to be taught themselves if they want to become suitable for the teaching ministry on earth. Ask God for enlightenment and examine, yet with the deepest desire for truth, otherwise you will only open your heart and ear to thoughts which do not correspond to the truth, because truth is only recognized as truth by someone who seriously desires it, who is willing to surrender all knowledge, all spiritual thoughts, in order to exchange the pure truth for it …. Examine earnestly and ask God for His blessing, for illumination of your spirit …. for the pure truth …. Then the adversary’s activity will remain without influence, then the beings of light will repel all erring strength from you, then your thoughts will be guided correctly, you will be able to distinguish truth from error and thus also achieve great spiritual progress, for only the pure truth will lead you upwards, towards God as the eternal truth ….

Amen

Exploiting the end time …. soulwork ….

B.D. 3639 from December 28th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

Your earthly life will only last a short time, and thus you must use every day and every hour for the perfection of your souls, for when the hour of the end has come you will be judged according to your soul’s work on earth. You, who will lose your earthly life before the last end, are not given much more time, and therefore you will constantly be reminded of this so that you don’t become lukewarm in your soul’s work …. You can still make great spiritual progress in a short time if you pay attention to the great hardship around you, if you are willing to help and try to alleviate the hardship with unselfish neighbourly love. You can establish an ever more intimate connection with your father of eternity and thereby receive an abundance of grace so that you can mature in a short time and need not fear your physical end. This is why God constantly speaks through His instruments on earth, He announces the end to people, He announces His intervention through the forces of nature, always pointing out to people that they have to reckon with an early demise in order to give them the opportunity to be diligently active and to take care of their spiritual welfare …. And the day is no longer far away …. The knowledgeable should be exceedingly diligent and put spiritual welfare before all earthly concerns. But God Himself instructs the ignorant through adversity by trying to bring Himself close to them again and again, by wanting to motivate people to call upon Him and thus to come to the realization of their weakness, and again and again He sends His messengers towards them to inform them of the forthcoming end. No-one will remain unwarned and unadmonished, everyone will be informed of what is coming in a different way so that they can seriously think about their souls and mature. But whoever leaves this time unused has to expect a hard fate in the beyond and must make up for what he missed on earth, which can take an infinitely long time. Earthly life will not last much longer, for the end is also imminent …. And consider this, you who still cling too much to earthly things, who strive to gain earthly goods and have few spiritual goods to show for yourselves …. Consider that you will have to give up everything in the end and that only spiritual goods make up your wealth, and therefore seek to increase these, earnestly strive for perfection, for wisdom from God, and thereby secure eternal life for yourselves if you have to give up earthly life when and as God has decreed since eternity ….

Blessing of God's servants in their work ….

B.D. 3640 from December 29th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

I bless all My servants on earth if they are active for My kingdom, if they are redemptively active on earth where people are in greatest spiritual adversity. I endow them with strength in order to be able to work for Me, I instruct them so that they can spread the truth, I loosen their tongues as soon as they speak for Me, for My teaching and My name …. Thus I prepare them for their mission which begins after I have manifestly made Myself known to the world, after I have spoken to people with an iron voice which is more or less recognized by them as My voice. Then they will find a large field of work, people who, in earthly adversity and great misery, long for a word of comfort and encouragement, who desire an explanation for the immense event which brings unspeakable suffering and costs many people their lives …. And then you shall give them this explanation, you shall speak for Me and My name, for My teaching, you shall mention the forthcoming end and reproach them for the great spiritual hardship they are in …. you shall preach to them about My love and thus lead them to Me so that they will now turn to Me Myself and desire My help …. And I will bless your activity …. I will give you strength to speak in such a way that you will be successful, I will make their hearts receptive for My word …. I will help them to direct their senses spiritually and speak through you as is beneficial for their souls. For there is only a short time left when you can work unhindered by worldly measures, and you must use this time and be diligently active. The hardship around you will be great but bearable for My servants so that they shall visibly feel My help and grace and proclaim Me and My love. And anyone who listens to them, who allows himself to be instructed in the sincere will to do what is right, his hardship will likewise be obviously alleviated, he will noticeably feel the strength of My word which is conveyed to him through you, for thus I want everyone who is willing to recognize Me. And therefore I need you as My labourers, because human mouths have to proclaim My will, because I cannot manifest Myself where humanity is unbelieving or too weak in faith. I require servants on earth who are strong in faith, who are in contact with Me Myself and constantly fetch strength for their ministry on earth, who are knowledgeable and shall convincingly spread their knowledge to those who desire it, who call for help in physical and spiritual adversity. And I will always bless My servants’ work, after all, it is of great urgency for the salvation of erring souls. And therefore try to shape yourselves first so that I can take complete possession of you, so that I will no longer find the slightest resistance if I want to work through you …. Strengthen yourselves constantly through My word, give your soul the nourishment it needs in order to become mature for the acceptance of Myself into your hearts, and then let Me work through you so that a work of salvation can begin before the end which the souls will eternally thank you for, to whom you bring salvation in deepest spiritual hardship ….

Amen

Spiritual arrogance ….

B.D. 3641 from December 30th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

Spiritual arrogance prevents the human being from recognizing the truth. Everyone must bear this in mind, that only through profound humility can the human being attain that which, in the realization of his deficiency, desires knowledge …. who does not believe that he is already knowledgeable before he has sincerely asked for truth. The human being acquires knowledge through his intellectual activity, or he receives it from outside if it appeals to him, and he holds on to it. And this knowledge is usually enough for him if it agrees with his wishes and views. He shuts himself off from every presentation that does not correspond to his knowledge, always in the consciousness that he possesses the right knowledge …. He exalts himself above his fellow human beings who think differently and rejects everything offered to him from this side without taking a stand himself. And these people are difficult to guide into truth, for only the person humbly asks for it who believes himself to be ignorant and recognizes his inadequacy to penetrate spiritual knowledge through his own strength. But God only gives His grace to this person, for He wants to be approached for it in humble prayer. The belief to be in the right knowledge prevents the human being from asking for it as long as he still walks in error. For the person who has penetrated the truth remains inwardly humble despite the richest knowledge, and his prayer constantly ascends to God for an increase in his knowledge. For he feels infinitely small in view of God’s greatness, Who becomes ever more sublime to him the greater his knowledge is. And thus this person will also always be accessible to spiritual conversations, whereas the believer in knowledge quickly ends such conversations because he does not want to be instructed, instead he seeks to spread his knowledge himself, always emphasizing it in spiritual arrogance as his own body of thought which he deems unassailable. He even tries to instruct God’s servants, His messengers, who bring him the truth, for he does not acknowledge the working of the spirit and tries to invalidate everything they oppose him with his intellectual thinking. He fights against the working of the spirit, he thinks himself more mature and wiser and also does not recognize God as the giver of truth, Who expresses Himself through His messengers …. He fights with human wisdom against divine wisdom and does not submit himself by asking God Himself for enlightenment of the spirit …. And therefore he can hardly attain truth as long as the spirit of arrogance dwells in him …. Only the realization of complete ignorance in the spiritual sphere can determine him to occupy himself mentally with questions, and only then can the truth reach him if he humbly requests it, for God gives His grace to the humble but He does not reveal Himself to the arrogant ….

Amen

Acknowledgement of the work of redemption necessary for maturity of soul ….

B.D. 3642 from December 31th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

The open confession of Christ and His work of redemption irrevocably belongs to the attainment of maturity of soul. The human being cannot mature without love …. but the one who has love also recognizes Him who sacrificed Himself for humanity out of love. He also knows that Christ took death upon Himself on the cross as atonement for humanity’s great guilt, that He therefore wanted to redeem it from an infinitely long time of captivity. And consequently He will also acknowledge this work of great love and mercy and place Himself under Christ’s cross in order to also partake of the graces of the act of salvation. But the graces of the act of salvation only bring about the maturing of the soul, for the redeemer Himself now draws the soul to Himself, upwards, He imparts strength to it to want and do what is right. Anyone who does not acknowledge Jesus Christ and His act of salvation remains under satan’s control, his will remains weak or turned away from God, the soul remains on a low level of development, for it lacks love …. But love recognizes Jesus Christ, for where love is there is also wisdom, the power of realization for pure truth, and thus Christ’s act of salvation will be fully understandable to the loving person, whereas the unloving person is completely ignorant of humanity’s sin and guilt, of the meaning and purpose of earthly life, of the human being’s aim and task on earth. If he knows all this his way of life is already a life of love, and then the divine redeemer will only be the symbol of profoundest love for him, Whom he has to acknowledge and Whom he also confesses before the world if this is demanded of him. And then his soul will strive upwards and it will certainly reach its aim, because it will not strive of its own strength but with Jesus Christ, because its will will be strengthened by Him and the soul will constantly receive strength and grace, for His promise is: ‘He who believes in Me has eternal life ….” Faith in Jesus Christ and His act of salvation is absolutely necessary in order to be able to enter the kingdom itself, which signifies eternal life for the soul, which is filled with light and strength and signifies bliss, which Jesus promised to those who believe in Him, because these will endeavour to follow Him and live a life of love as Jesus exemplified to them on earth, for only love will earn them supreme beatitude in eternity ….

God instructs His disciples and sends them out into the world ….

B.D. 3643 from December 31th 1945, taken from Book No. 46

The spirit of love must rule you if you want to unite with eternal love. This is My commandment which I give to you again and again, it is the epitome of My teaching which I convey to you again and again through My messengers …. it is the content of My word which comes to you from above because I love you and want to draw you to Me forever. And if you practice love you will fulfil My commandment and gain My pleasure, I Myself will draw close to you and you will draw nearer to Me until you unite yourselves with Me through unceasing activity of love …. And therefore I repeatedly send My messengers out into the world, My disciples, who are to instruct people in My name, who are to preach love to them and thus make My will known, because I want to help people to redeem themselves, to shape themselves into love in order to be able to become blissfully happy …. And therefore I instruct these disciples to make them able to teach their fellow human beings …. I impart My word to them and show them the path every person has to take in order to unite with Me for eternity …. I Myself instruct My disciples and send them out into the world with the task to be active on My behalf, because people shall be given the correct knowledge of My will, of My commandments, of their life’s task, their aim, of their imperfection and My greater than great love which wants to educate them into perfect beings so that they will become blissfully happy. They can only be informed of everything through My word, and thus they must be informed of My word through servants who have received it from Me Myself, who are able to pass it on in all purity as it originated from Me. And these servants are My disciples whom I send out into the world …. Anyone who listens to them listens to Me, and anyone who takes their words to heart listens to Me, he obeys My commandments, he fulfils My will, he shapes himself into love and seeks and finds unity with Me. My word only teaches love and is therefore always recognizable as My word as soon as it is offered with love and points to Me, the eternal love. My word can also only be received by people who live in love, who are therefore so intimately united with Me that they desire to hear Me and are able to hear that I can come to them in the word, and who are therefore also suitable to work for Me on earth as My servants …. to educate people to love again by bringing them the word which originated from Me Myself. I Myself am the word, and if people want to unite with Me they first have to let Me speak to them, they have to know My will and strive to fulfil it. And since My word only requires loving activity from them, since this alone is My will that they keep My commandments of love, they need only let their own will become active and shape themselves into love in order to unite with Me, Who is eternal love Myself. But then they will also be unspeakably happy, for unification with Me signifies redemption from bondage, from the bondage of the one who is without love and therefore stands far away from Me, who is an enemy of the souls and seeks to corrupt them and whose endeavour is to distance them from Me, thus to seduce them into unkindness and thus to plunge them into ruin. But My word is the path to beatitude, My word is enlightenment and guidance, My word gives strength and grace and safely leads to the aim, for anyone who hears My word and faithfully accepts it in his heart will also constantly be active in love and thus redeem himself, because I draw him to Me and will never again let him fall into the hands of the one who is My adversary ….

Significance of the work of redemption …. past – present – future ….

B.D. 3644 from January 1st 1946, taken from Book No. 46

Jesus died the death on the cross for all mankind …. This was an act of divine mercy and love which is incomprehensible to people as long as they dwell on earth. It was an act of salvation which not only applied to the people of the time who lived with Him on earth but in which the spirits of the entire universe participated, for the divine saviour’s love extended to all bound spirits which wanted to be redeemed from their adversity. All people of the following time had a share in His act of salvation, but Jesus Christ also brought salvation to the souls which had already departed before His descent. The path into the kingdom of light was open for everyone because the redeeming love could now be active on earth as well as in the spiritual kingdom. Even the still immature spiritual in the beyond recognized the power of love, even the immature spiritual was given the choice to acknowledge Jesus Christ or to strive towards God’s adversary once more, and its decision was valid and paved the way up into the kingdom of light or down into darkness. Jesus descended into hell after His death on the cross …. He also lit a little light there in His merciful love and left it up to the souls to make use of the light …. He took care of the souls who had left earth unredeemed, who were overwhelmed by satan’s power and alone too weak to be able to offer resistance. Love was not yet completely suffocated in those souls, and thus He stoked the fire of love by presenting His merciful love to them, which alone was able to accomplish the act of salvation. He stretched out His hands to the fallen so that those who were willing to accept His merciful love, His gift of grace, could lift themselves up by it ….. And He redeemed them from death …. And everything spiritual in the universe, everything spiritual bound in earthly creations, was released from a tremendous pressure …. For its earthly course could once be decided and end with complete redemption, if the spiritual wanted it, whereas it was previously unable to redeem itself from satan’s bonds. Although it was not aware of this as long as it was not yet in a state of free will, the whole of creation was burdened with the immense guilt of sin of the spiritual’s former apostasy from God …. Jesus’ merciful love lightened this burden so that the bound spiritual also felt it and pushed towards the final stage of redemption. The spiritual development of ascent entered a completely different stage through Jesus Christ’s act of salvation, an opportunity was given to become free from every form during the short earthly life as a human being …. Death had lost all horror, for eternal life supersedes earthly life if the graces of the divine work of redemption are utilized …. if the human being allows himself to be redeemed by acknowledging Jesus Christ and living a life of love on earth in accordance with His example. And the human being’s love also flows over to the spiritual substance in the bound state, it feels its effect and its strength and its resistance begins to weaken, it strives towards the final state of development on earth itself, it is willing to serve with love, and the final redemption is guaranteed as soon as the strength of love has once touched the spiritual substance …. Jesus’ act of salvation was therefore of inconceivable significance for the whole world, for the spiritual kingdom as well as for the earthly kingdom, for it was based on profound love, it was an act of utmost mercy and the bestowal of an immeasurable treasure of grace. It was accomplished for all times, for the past, present and future …. It was a work of merciful love for all who suffer and are unredeemed, but it must also be acknowledged without fail if it is not to remain without effect …. as Jesus Christ Himself promised with the words: “He who believes in Me has eternal life ….”

Constant longing for God …. love – happiness ….

B.D. 3645 from January 2nd 1946, taken from Book No. 46

All your thoughts should flow towards Me in a constant longing for My nearness, for My love and My grace …. Then you will have overcome earthly life, even though you still have to live it out until your hour has come. Then your soul will no longer belong to the world, it will have become one with the spirit within you and only push towards Me …. And only love can bring about this state …. Anyone who is constantly active in love can no longer feel differently, his thoughts will be directed towards Me in a love-desiring way, because the spirit in him directs his thoughts and constantly directs them towards the eternal kingdom …. The working of love guarantees the intimate connection with Me, and anyone who has once entered into it will no longer want to miss it. His longing is only for constant union with Me. There is no more blissful feeling than that of love, love draws towards each other and unites, love always and constantly gives, it seeks to please and thereby finds its happiness. And since I love My living creations from the beginning and will never stop loving them, I also try to lead them to the highest happiness and constantly share with them out of strength and grace in order to make them worthy of this happiness. If the soul now loves Me again, it also wants to give Me …. itself, and therefore it pushes towards Me and I draw it to Me to make it blissfully happy in My presence, through My love, through light and strength …. Whatever comes to Me of its own accord I take hold of and make it capable of receiving light and strength already on earth, so that it can distribute again for its own happiness and for the redemption of that which has not yet found its way to Me …. Whatever applies to Me of its own free will takes the path of light, and it can never ever become dark around it. For as soon as it unites with Me through heartfelt remembrance, prayer and loving activity it will also be permeated by My love, and My love is light and strength …. knowledge and power …. The knowing soul will also be able to let My strength flow into it and be able to work through My strength, for it works from Me and with Me. If My love has taken hold of a creature, the lack of strength will have fallen away from it, it will approach the original state again, which signifies full possession of light and strength, and thereby it will become blissfully happy, for it will be able to be active in love as it desires. And if a person already strives for this on earth then the earthly world recedes, the desire for the spiritual world predominates because the soul feels that spiritual activity alone is true happiness, that it alone is only valuable and that it is also urgent because the hardship of the unredeemed spiritual requires it. And every person who feels this and offers himself to Me for help is seized by My love, it flows through him, it makes him capable of suitable work for My kingdom and thus already gives him the happiness of redeeming activity on earth. And let this be your endeavour, you who want to ascend, that you constantly try to turn your thoughts towards Me, that you first commend everything you start, also your earthly activity, to My blessing, that you always and everywhere mention Me as your guide and advisor, that you start nothing, without first having thought of Me, and that you thus live in intimate union with Me, always feeling Me next to you, desiring Me at all times and drawing Me ever closer to you through loving activity until there is no longer any separation between you and Me, until a firm bond has been formed which will remain unbreakable for all eternity ….

Amen

Earthly and spiritual creations ….

B.D. 3646 from January 3rd 1946, taken from Book No. 46

Everything which presents itself to your gaze, which you see and feel, and countless works of creation which lie beyond your field of vision, which fill the whole universe and bear eternal witness to My love, My strength and My everlasting creative will, came forth from Me. All creations are My work, they carry My strength within them, they are constantly sustained by My strength and thus fulfil their purpose according to My will …. But they carry something within themselves which does not yet correspond to My will …. they harbour the spiritual substance which has changed contrary to My will, which has left the state of perfection in free will and has sunk into a state which is imperfect, thus completely contradicts My order of eternity. And this imperfect spiritual substance was the cause of My creation …. My will became active in the same way, only in the opposite direction …. what wanted to distance itself from Me I try to hold back, I try to guide it towards Me again in a roundabout way, respecting free will but supporting it as long as it is in a state of complete ignorance due to its striving away from Me. My creation is therefore only a means to an end, and the end is the final return of that which once originated from Me in all perfection and became imperfect through its own fault. As long as this creation is visible to your eyes it is animated by spiritual substances which are completely opposed to Me and bound in material form. As soon as this resistance subsides, the form changes more quickly in order to finally release the spiritual completely, even if it has not yet completely given up its resistance. Then, however, spiritual creations are its abode, depending on its state of maturity. And these spiritual creations are so exceedingly versatile and wonderful to look at as soon as the spiritual has already approached Me so far that it can look with spiritual eyes. Nevertheless, even then they still serve the spiritual kingdom’s higher development, thus purpose and aim cannot be denied to them either, for nothing is without purpose that has emerged from Me, because My will to shape is paired with profoundest wisdom, because supremely perfect thoughts flow from Me which I let become form through My will. The spiritual kingdom is the actual world, the earthly world only a faint reflection, a creation of a minimal kind, adapted to the spiritual, which, embodied as a human being, enlivens earthly creations. And yet, earthly creations also completely correspond to their purpose, and they are the most effective means for the reclamation of the spiritual, even though the latter often disregards the means in free will. My work is never imperfect, only it can be too little utilized by the still immature spiritual being, and then even the most effective means fail to achieve their purpose. Once the human being has attained the spiritual maturity that he is already able to see spiritually on earth, then he will also recognize the great love and wisdom which underlies every work of creation; he will recognize Me as the creator of everything he sees, and he will reverently bow before the power Which gave him life and let him walk through creation to his perfection …. Yet the human being’s gaze must be spiritually directed if he wants to learn to recognize Me, and creation will speak to him in a language which goes to his heart …. He will praise and give thanks and eternally glorify the one Who let everything come into being, he will recognize Me and love Me with all his heart, for he has found Me in order to never lose Me again ….

Amen

Two worlds …. Divine law of love ….

B.D. 3647 from January 4th 1946, taken from Book No. 46

Divine law requires love, consequently everything unloving is ungodly, it is very distant from God, it is His adversary’s part which is entirely without love and for this reason he is God’s direct opposite. God and His adversary rule over two worlds which will always stay apart until the law of love is fulfilled and unites both worlds. Nevertheless, God’s power also extends to the world where His law is ignored, because everything in this world emerged from God too, it has merely distanced itself from His sphere of love. And His power shows itself in as much as that He also rules in the kingdom of the heartless, i.e. he directs all events in accordance with His will. In spite of God’s adversary having great strength and power at his disposal, it is nevertheless limited and does not extend to the works of divine creative power, it does not extend to the creations in whom heartlessness was constrained in order to change itself into love …. In this state the spirit, which had previously fallen away from God, is isolated from His adversary’s power and compelled to fulfil the law of love, although its will does not yet determine its actions. It enables the spirit to cross more easily from the ungodly world into God’s world when it is permitted to undergo this test on earth.

But then the power of God’s adversary comes into its own and with cunning and force seeks to hold on to the spiritual essence of his world …. He tries to increase its heartlessness, he attempts to make it give up the divine, he endeavours to withhold from it the divine law of love and make it wholly inclined to his wishes …. But God in His merciful love will not leave the spirit to His adversary without a fight. During the last stage as a human being He will repeatedly give him the knowledge of His law of love, he will constantly approach the person by requesting love and offering him the opportunity to fulfil the divine commandment. He will present His world to him, either in thoughts or through his fellow human beings, and thus will urge him to make a decision for one of both worlds. And if he is willing to carry out the requirements of divine law, if he is willing to apply love, he will also recognise the right path leading to the kingdom of light. He will see the darkness of the realm which belongs to God’s opponent, he will see the consequences of heartlessness as he recognises the strength of love, and he will voluntarily submit himself to divine law …. He will shape himself into love and therefore be an applicant to the spiritual kingdom, the world which belongs to God …. He will renounce God’s adversary in order to belong to God eternally, Who is love in Himself, because he has become love itself ….

Amen

Language of creation …. Essence – Creative power ….

B.D. 3648 from January 5th 1946, taken from Book No. 46

Learn to understand the language of creation …. God Himself is speaking to you through creation, He is constantly facing you by revealing Himself in all the work that emerges from His strength of love. And He has given you the ability to perceive His creation, to stimulate your intellect …. and thus it is He Himself Who is mentally instructing you, providing you are willing to accept His instructions when you look at the creation around you, when you ponder its meaning and purpose, its origin and the One Who brought it into existence. Every relevant thought is a question answered by God Himself, providing you truly want it answered …. The eternal creative power cannot be denied if you contemplate the origin of the works of creation …. The eternal creative power has to be acknowledged by every person, but its origin, its source, is frequently disputed by people. They do not always want to acknowledge a perfect Entity as the source of creative power. Creation has not yet spoken to them clearly enough, they have not yet understood its language, and their thoughts first have to aim in the right direction in order to come to the right conclusion ….

Creation exceptionally and distinctly reveals a conformity to law, an orderliness, which cannot be surpassed. Something so orderly is always the result of a strong will, of an Essence Which claims this strong will as its own. Furthermore, order also testifies to the wisdom of the Entity Who produced it …. well thought-out laws which eliminate all imprudence, a wisdom which brought nothing into existence without meaning and purpose and which also allows its meaning and purpose to be known. Hence the Being, Which would be the originator of the creative power, has to be intelligent and, by virtue of His will and power, be able to let His thoughts take shape. Thus it has to be a supremely perfect Being Who reveals Himself in every work of creation, Who wants to be recognised in His perfection …. Who in turn is using His strength to provide other intelligent beings with proof of His existence, because He is in closest contact with these intelligent beings in as much as they too emerged from Him, that they too are the product of His creative will and His creative power, whom He wants to bring into a state of perfection in order to make them carriers of abundant strength as well, so that they too can be creatively active for their own happiness. The Creator’s close link with His living creations has to be recognised, the human being has to become aware of the relationship between himself and the eternal creative power. As a being in his own right he has to acknowledge the Power, Which is infinitely stronger than himself, as an Entity or he will be lost in creation as the only intelligent individual being which is in possession of (free) will and yet incapable of actions for which he lacks strength.

Furthermore, it is absurd to assume that a Power, Which gave rise to everything, would give life to intelligent beings without being intelligent Itself …. The same applies to the human being’s inherent will which, however, is being denied to the origin of natural power …. What would creation be without intrinsic inhabitants …. of what purpose would this unsurpassed order be could it not be recognised by beings, if it did not give testimony of a supreme Being, which wants to be acknowledged …. What would the human being be without intelligence and will …. an imperfect living creation which would not need orderly creation to exist …. The fact that the human being is able to think and has free will is proof of a Creator Who, in utmost perfection, is capable of thought and, in accordance with His will, uses His ability with wisdom and in full possession of strength …. It is also proof that the human being was not created without reason and purpose, and that he was given thought and will in order to recognise the reason and purpose and strive for it …. He has to realise that he does not master earthly life in spite of thought and will, he has to acknowledge a stronger Being above himself Whose will is decisive, and he has to accept Its wisdom and love and bow to It ….

And God speaks to people through creation, He motivates them to contemplate it and willingly offers explanations if these are sincerely wanted, if people, abandoning their knowledge, hand themselves over to the eternal creative power Who has given them their intelligence. Then their thoughts can be guided in the right direction so that they too will live in the order which is intrinsic to every work of creation but which the person can also revoke, because he is in possession of free will. Nevertheless, should he want to live in God’s ordained order, then his will shall be observed …. and he will be given knowledge about everything he wants to know ….

Amen

Love – Wisdom …. Selfish love – Error – Darkness ….

B.D. 3649 from January 6th 1946, taken from Book No. 46

All darkness will leave you, every veil will fall from your eyes, the love of God will reveal itself brightly and clearly to you if you make the effort to live with love, since out of love comes wisdom, the realisation of pure truth, and you become knowledgeable, depending on your attained degree of love. Yet without love you will stay in spiritual darkness, without love you will never become enlightened, you will never be able to distinguish truth from lie and error, you will never understand the depth of the Deity, and His rule and actions will remain hidden to you. And for this reason Jesus taught love on earth ….

For this reason He could only bring the truth to those people who followed His lessons of love, for this reason He was able to teach His disciples and impart on them profound knowledge, because He recognised the love in them and that is why he chose them to become His disciples. People first have to be encouraged to love, otherwise they cannot find the truth. Love is God, truth is God and therefore, whoever is without love is without God and walks in error. However, to live in love means to be good to other human beings from an innermost urge of heart, to help whenever they need it, when they suffer hardship, yet always without self interest, always at the prompting of the heart, then it is divine love and not selfish love which the human being has to oppose if he wants to please God. Selfish love prevents the human being from acting kindly towards other people, it is therefore the greatest danger to him as it leads him into wrong thinking, into error and into darkness of spirit, because selfishness formerly led to the fall of the spirit ….

The completely enlightened being fell into spiritual darkness due to the wrong kind of love, it could no longer discern the truth and became a subject of the one who fought against the truth, against God. Thus every person who exists without divine love will be a servant to the one who is entirely without love and will be as distant from the truth as he, due to his heartlessness, is distant from God because God, Love and Truth are One. And that is why only the human being who acts kindly himself and who on account of his love is led to wisdom, can live in truth and know God on earth. All veils will fall from him, he will recognise the goal brightly and clearly since God will reveal Himself to him, He will guide him into truth and turn him into a recipient of light and strength, even on earth. This will enable him to work with love for the souls of his fellow human beings and to show them the path which leads to truth and light, so that he can convey to them that only the adherence to Jesus’ teachings of love will result in right thinking, in enlightenment of the spirit, in order that the fellow human being can also know the truth and therefore God Himself as the eternal truth ….

Amen

Distributing spiritual goods ….

B.D. 3650 from January 7th 1946, taken from Book No. 46

I Myself distribute spiritual riches to anyone who desires them …. No request for it will go unheard, no request will remain unfulfilled which applies to the soul’s well-being, which concerns spiritual possessions which I exceedingly gladly impart to My children on earth. Yet I also demand something in return, I distribute the knowledge which corresponds to truth under conditions which have to be fulfilled first, so that the recipient will prove himself worthy of My gift of grace …. I require loving hearts which accept My gift …. And if the human being seriously strives to gain advantages for his soul, if the well-being of his soul is his first concern, he will also fulfil this condition of Mine, he will be lovingly active out of innermost impulse, for the desire for spiritual good only occurs when the human being has disregarded earthly goods, when he has overcome selfish love and unselfish neighbourly love has taken its place. For this reason every person who seriously strives for spiritual goods will also make an effort to live in love, and therefore no request will remain unfulfilled, for I Myself help the supplicant so that the spark of love in him becomes a flame, I Myself impel him into loving activity without, however, forcing his will. I place the thoughts in his heart which he can accept but also reject and thus spur him on to lively activity in love. For if the human being wants to shape himself according to My pleasure, if he wants to gain spiritual advantages for himself, the strength to carry out his will will always be given to him by Me, and My supply of strength also signifies increased activity of love, because it is the emanation of love from Me Myself. This is why no person will remain on a low spiritual level who demands ascent …. For he complies with My will, he fulfils his purpose of earthly life, he uses his will in the right direction and his thinking is guided by Me from the start as soon as he seeks to ascend the spiritual height …. But this always presupposes the connection with Me, the prayer which is sent up with full faith to the one Who distributes spiritual possessions …. Thus I must always be acknowledged as the giver of light, as the giver of truth, as the source of strength and as the embodiment of love …. Therefore, anyone who believes will inevitably ascend, and anyone who is weak in faith and sends the request for truth into infinity will also find grace by his weak faith being strengthened, by his prayer becoming ever more personal, by him finally conversing with a being Who reveals Himself to him ever more and more and does not deny him the spiritual goods …. Which also introduces him to truth because it is his will to attain truth …. because he unconsciously strives to become perfect, because he wants to remedy his deficient state of ignorance and every desire for spiritual maturity finds My pleasure …. For this is the aim and purpose of earthly life, that you mature spiritually, and therefore no request you send upwards for the sake of your soul will be in vain ….

Amen
