Spiritual dialogue …. presence of God …. doubt – worry ….
B.D. 4456 from October 10th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
The clearest answer to your mental questions will not satisfy you if you don’t firmly believe that the mental answer is My spirit’s working. As long as you doubt this you will not be able to have inner peace either, because you are constantly tormented by thoughts which require a clear answer from Me. Always feel so intimately united with Me that you are certain of My constant participation in your life, then you will also be able to believe that I live with you and know your every adversity and worry. You must acquire this awareness of My participation and constant presence, then your life will also be easy, then you will be filled with the feeling of togetherness which fills you with strength, then you will always know in Me the strong companion Who helps you over all obstacles, Who guides you and guards your every step, Who will not leave you unprotected against any enemy attack, Who is always with you because He loves you. Only gain faith in My love …. What you entrust to Me in thought, in the adversity of your heart, will not go unheard by My ears, and if you listen quietly and attentively within, you will also hear My answer in thought: only believe that I speak to you through your thoughts and therefore do not reject them …. After heartfelt prayer to Me My spirit’s answer is active, which gives you the inner conviction to be right, for if you implore Me I will not remain silent because you should believe that I will help you. You are still weak in faith in Me and My love and therefore live in restlessness, in fear and worry and in a feeling of loneliness. Yet believe that I am with you, believe that My love applies to you and that I will never ever leave you, and let this awareness of My presence become so strong in you that you therefore fear nothing that approaches you from outside. For I want to give you peace of mind which, however, can only make you happy in the feeling of togetherness with Me. You are never alone, and My word is the visible sign of My presence …. How can you, who receive My word, doubt My presence? And what else but doubts about it are your fear and worry, which are invalid if you firmly and convincingly believe that I am with you and help you in every adversity and distress of body and soul? And therefore you will be able to do without any other help if it is denied to you by your fellow human beings. You will never turn to Me in vain, and therefore always come to Me when you are weary and burdened …. My love is always ready to help you if only you request My help, if you pray to Me in spirit and in truth and believe …. for I will never let a strong faith go to waste ….
Amen

Announcement of the end …. 'You only have little time left ….'
B.D. 4457 from October 11th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
You don’t have much time left and seriously ought to prepare yourselves for the day when an act of destruction will happen the likes of which has never been experienced before. And although I keep announcing it, you nevertheless doubt My Words and are therefore slow in your work of improving your soul. And you only have a little time left …. But I cannot make you aware of it by any other means than through My Word; if you don’t believe it you will be shocked when the last signs start to appear. Although shortly before I will indeed warn you once again, yet even these Words will not be believed by you anymore than the previous announcements because you will be incensed by My forbearance and can’t understand that I Am waiting for the sake of the souls yet to be saved, even though the time has long been fulfilled. Some can still be saved, I want to spare them the infinitely long path of a re-embodiment on the new earth and Am therefore patient and wait. However, even the final extension of time will come to an end, therefore take My Words seriously that you only have a little time left and that you will regret every day you have not used correctly for your soul.
And world events will change surprisingly quickly, just a few days will suffice in order to place you into a completely new situation. And then you ought to remember My Words and consider spiritual issues as being more important than earthly ones, for worrying about the latter is irrelevant since you cannot keep anything for yourselves if I won’t retain it for you, and that it is up to My will and My might to physically protect and take care of you. Always consider your soul, be helpful and generous when you come across adversity, and enter into heart-felt contact with Me so that you will receive the strength to endure and to do justice to all requirements of life. Constantly draw strength from My Word, for it is a source of strength which can refresh you and which will never run dry. Be always ready for Me and I will not abandon you, regardless of what happens to you ….
Amen

Danger of flattening (cath.) …. duty …. free will ….
B.D. 4458 from October 11th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
An unspeakable number of people are in danger of falling spiritually flat because they have adopted an erroneous view which makes serious reflection on the most important things seem unnecessary. What God demands of people is merely work on the soul and the fulfilment of the human being’s duties for earthly life. But the work on the soul is the most important thing and can only be done from within, i.e. an attitude which corresponds to God’s will must determine every thought, will and action, the human being, driven from within, must lead the way of life which pleases God. And this way of life is merely a life of unselfish loving activity towards his fellow human being. Then his soul will mature, then he will do the work on his soul which is the purpose and aim of his earthly life …. But how many people understand by a God-pleasing way of life an outwardly recognizable attitude towards a certain denomination ….? How many people are of the erroneous opinion that God has prescribed certain outward appearances for them, and they make an effort to fulfil these conscientiously without, however, furthering the maturity of their soul. Now they do not live contrary to God per se but they do not progress either, they do not sin but do not gather spiritual goods either; they are not contrary to God but not God-connected either; they do nothing bad but nothing particularly good either, they are not cold but not hot either, and they therefore always remain on the same level, they do not ascend but their path is even and therefore does not lead to the aim which requires an ascent otherwise it will never be reached. It is not only a few people who are in this danger, but a large number belong to those who cannot be taught because they are firmly convinced that they walk the right path and have the right knowledge. But these people lack one thing: the awareness of their own weakness and the resulting need to lean on the one to Whom they belong …. This awareness would make them request advice and help which God will not deny them but which also consists of guiding them into the right realization. People who do not correctly recognize divine will must first be correctly instructed and thus realize their ignorance and try to remedy it. This is a deeply humble admission of one’s imperfection, which, however, is seldom made. Instead of humility, self-conceit is far more common, and this does not accept any teachings, but is convinced of the truth and the infallibility of one’s own thinking. So the truth does not find its way in, because man thinks he is already in possession of the truth, which, however, would first have to be presented to him.
(12.10.1948) And thus countless people do not focus their attention on the transformation of their nature as it should be, instead they are content with adhering to laws which appear to be the most important to them because they are not properly instructed by those who call themselves My representatives on earth. However, it is only important how the individual person leads his daily life with regard to the spiritual life of the soul, i.e. how his conduct is in spiritual terms, whether it corresponds to God’s will, i.e. whether it represents a fulfilment of His commandments of love. The commandment of love, however, predominantly extends to dealings with fellow human beings, with the neighbour, to whom the same measure of love should be given if the human being wants to fulfil the divine commandments. Activities which have nothing to do with neighbourly love, which in case of omission mean no harm to the fellow human being, are therefore also completely meaningless for the increase of soul maturity, they then fall into the category of worldly activities, which therefore serve some worldly purpose and therefore as purely worldly service cannot be evaluated for the degree of soul maturity. Laws which have been added to the fundamental law of love for God and neighbour are likely to make this fundamental law appear less important and therefore a danger to the human soul, so that precisely the commandments of love cannot be preached insistently enough, on the fulfilment of which the soul’s salvation and thus its whole life in eternity depends. And again and again it has to be pointed out to people that they use their will wrongly if they use it to carry out humanly decreed commandments and believe that they have now fulfilled their duty, whereas they do not work on the transformation of their nature and therefore remain at the stage of their spiritual development, thus they make no progress during their earthly life. Only loving activity is required, for this fulfils the commandment of love which is the only one God has given to people so that they will become blissfully happy ….
Amen

Hard struggle and suffering before the end …. safest help God’s word ….
B.D. 4459 from October 13th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
You children of My love still have to hold out for a short time until you are released from the form. It is a difficult battle you still have to endure, yet it will not be too difficult for you because I am constantly close to you and grant you support at all times. Yet for your own sake you still have to go through suffering so that you will be purified and no longer need to fear the last judgment. Yet again and again I give you the assurance that you will only stay on this earth for a short time, that every day is still a gift in which you can gain much if you surrender to everything difficult that comes upon you. It will pass by …. and one day you will look up to Me full of gratitude, Who, through suffering, has placed you in the degree of being allowed to look at Me, Who, through suffering, helps your soul to mature more quickly, because time is only short until the end. You are all My children, I certainly see your suffering but I also know about the necessity of it, and thus the suffering is only love for you again, and you should always gratefully accept it from My hand, for nothing comes upon you which I don’t know or deem good and beneficial for you. Yet you are never abandoned by Me, even if it seems as if I don’t hear your prayer …. Every call from the heart reaches My ear, and I am always ready to help, only it is not always immediately recognizable to you …. The gift of grace from above …. My word …. will always be a safe aid for you if you think you are weak or completely despondent …. Turn to Me in prayer and then accept the answer by receiving My word, and peace will come over you and My strength will flow over you so that you will be able to bear everything I send upon you. You don’t need to suffer, for My word is full compensation for everything you lack, which makes you miserable. Every suffering and every worry disappears if you read My word and let it penetrate your hearts. For I Myself am My word, and can you really feel suffering when I am near you? Prove your faith and heed My advice, let Me speak to you and nothing will touch you, no suffering will oppress you as soon as you make contact with Me ….
Amen

God’s word must not force to acceptance …. free will ….
B.D. 4460 from October 13th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
I inform you of My will but I do not force you to fulfil it. For I want you to live in accordance with My will out of love for Me, that it is therefore your free will how you live your life and that you then also bear the responsibility for your soul which determines your will. But in order for you to know My will I constantly make sure that it is conveyed to you, and thus you receive My word …. How it is conveyed to you depends again on your attitude towards Me. It is brought to those from outside who have not yet found the right attitude towards Me, so that they establish the right relationship to also be able to hear My word inwardly. Mentally it happens to those who are searching and send their thoughts into infinity …. My word comes to them in the form of thoughts which they regard as their own origin but which always conform to the proclamation of My will through the written word. Still others desire to hear Me, they believe and hold silent dialogue with Me, and I can reveal Myself to them through the inner voice. Thus My word is conveyed to them in purest form, it is My imprinted will which manifests itself to those who want to be active as labourers in My vineyard, who are therefore to pass on My imparted word to their fellow human beings on My behalf. Thus I take care that the gospel is spread throughout the world, that all people receive knowledge of My will which they are to fulfil if they want to become blessed. Yet I leave everyone their freedom of will …. And therefore My word must always be presented in a form that it does not necessarily influence people, and therefore it can certainly be easily recognized as My word but it must never be conclusive, thus it must force people to accept it as being of absolutely divine origin. And therefore I have to let you doubt again and again so that you have to use your will yourselves, which should freely decide to accept or reject what is offered to you from above as pure truth. For My word must never make you unfree, it must not determine your faith if your faith is still too weak. The word itself shall strengthen your faith, of your own free will you shall struggle for strong faith and draw the strength for it from My word. But as long as you still have weak faith I cannot lead you to strong faith through obvious evidence, for you should believe but not know, i.e. you should attain knowledge through faith but not eliminate faith through proven knowledge, because then it is no longer possible to speak of free decision. Fulfil My will …. live in love and you will also be able to believe and need no proof …. Establish the right relationship with Me …. Pray for strong faith, ask Me to help you, then you will already prove the right faith through your prayer and you will experience a strengthening that every doubt in you will disappear …. you will be able to believe because you have the will to do so and I help everyone who strives towards Me of his own free will ….
Amen

Bridge to God – prayer …. narrowing the gap ….
B.D. 4461 from October 15th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
The bridge to Me can be entered at any time and no one will be denied to seek My presence. I Myself built it for you, I bridged the gulf between you and Me because I don’t want to be separated from you forever, and I will also meet you halfway, only you must have the will yourselves to reach Me. And you will be unspeakably happy when you have reached the aim which you cannot behold in all its glory from across but which must be glorious for the very reason that it is My kingdom and because you have to leave all earthly things behind you when you enter My kingdom. The bridge to Me is prayer, the change of your thoughts from the earthly into the spiritual world; whether it is a silent call to Me, whether it is a dwelling of your thoughts in non-earthly spheres, then you always seek the kingdom which is not of this world, you seek to recognize Me, and your will is directed towards Me, you have entered the bridge on which you shall henceforth walk, always with Me as your aim in mind. And I recognize your will and come to meet you, because every soul delights Me which turns to Me of its own free will …. If you pray intimately and thereby become aware of My presence, you will already have come far towards Me, the gulf between you and Me will become ever smaller, My hand will reach out to you and guide and pull you. If you can now even hear My voice, you will soon have reached your aim …. I urgently call out to you: Use prayer, use the bridge I have built for you, often connect with Me in thought until you may never choose another path than this bridge which leads to Me, until only this aim seems desirable to you, until your soul has recognized its true home and all longing is directed towards it. Pray in spirit and in truth …. Admitting your weakness to Me and asking Me for grace and strength for the long path you have to travel until you reach the aim. And once you have called Me through your desire that I should come to meet you, then the path will no longer seem far or difficult to you, then the distance will diminish more and more, the bridge will soon be crossed and you will then walk in realms which seem lovely to you; then you will already be in My kingdom, even though your body is still on earth …. But your soul dwells above, it has reached its aim, it has found Me and now never leaves Me, it no longer gives Me up …. The child has found its way home to the father’s house because it has used the bridge which My love has built for all My children on earth, so that they may become blessed ….
Amen

The ability to hear God's voice …. Conditions ….
B.D. 4462 from October 16th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
You are only able to hear the voice of the spirit if all your thoughts and intentions apply to Me alone, if you thus completely detach your thoughts from the earthly world. This does not imply that you should not perform your earthly duties or totally withdraw into solitude. For this does not correspond to My will, but in the midst of the bustle of the world you should look for the opportunity, and you will indeed find it, where your soul disassociates itself from the world, where you can briefly detach yourselves from all earthly thoughts, hence where your soul lifts itself into spheres which are unrelated to Earth, where I Am the focal point of your thoughts, feelings and inclinations, where it looks for and wishes to speak to Me. Everyone can establish such short contacts with Me if he wants to, he can even turn his thoughts towards Me for a few minutes during his earthly work, and I will pay attention to every thought and impart My Word to him; and if a person mentally remains for a longer time in My kingdom, if he takes the time to hold an inner conversation with Me and pays attention to the thoughts flowing to him as a reply, he will develop the ability to hear My voice, and it will soon sound to him like a gentle but clearly pronounced Word in his heart. You all can develop this ability within yourselves; however, it requires complete detachment from the world …. Nothing externally must affect the human being if he clearly wants to hear the voice inside. For this reason it also takes considerable strength of will to withdraw from the outer world and not to allow any part of this world take effect upon oneself …. I must be desired and be able to completely permeate his heart, otherwise I cannot be present to him and he will not be able to hear Me either. No-one can serve two masters …. When I speak everything else must be silent, and anyone who shall possess My love, which manifests itself in the Word, must also grant Me his love and willingly detach himself from all worldly matters, for My gift is precious and must also be appropriately appreciated ….
Amen

Gift of prophecy ….
B.D. 4463 from October 17th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
The gift of prophecy should not be misjudged, it should not be regarded as a prediction of earthly events in order to allow people a glimpse into the future but as what it really is …. divine enlightenment, a foresight of events which are closely related to people’s spiritual development and which is therefore inherent to people in a certain degree of maturity, so that humanity will be warned and admonished in spiritual matters. Anyone who is called by God to proclaim the future to people will never want to exploit his gift materially and will not strive for or achieve any earthly advantage. He will only unwillingly make these announcements himself but, driven by the spirit within himself, he will fulfil the divine will by passing on what the spirit makes known to him. God needs people through whom He can express Himself, and it truly belongs to Him to draw people’s attention to forthcoming events which could mean the individual’s premature end, for His love wants to give the human being an impulse to think about his fate after death, because He gives little room to such thoughts in the world’s affairs. A prediction which has spiritual content and is intended to stimulate a change can be believed at any time, and a prophet of this kind should not be rejected or overheard. A spiritual prediction always testifies to the seer’s contact with God, because His adversary would never point people to severe sorrowful events, but every prophecy which is a divine mission always announces an approaching judgment. The fact that a person spreads such announcements of his own accord can only be assumed if an earthly success or motive can be proven, but this is not the case for people who strive to live in God’s will. And if a person consciously places himself at God’s service his thinking will also be guided correctly, for God needs people who give themselves as an organ through which He can express Himself. Moreover, the world of light constantly stands behind these servants of God and prevents any wrong influence where free will provides the opportunity to convey messages from the spiritual kingdom to earth. Therefore, give ear to the prophets and seers of the last days …. regard them as being in the service of God …. take their words seriously and believe what God makes known to you through them. The gift of prophecy is a gift of grace to humanity which must first be used again if it is to become effective …. Anyone who believes them will also live his life according to God’s will, he will prepare himself and think of his soul, he will work on himself in view of what has been announced, and this alone is the purpose of a spiritual foresight which only testifies to God’s love and mercy, Who wants to help people turn their thoughts away from earthly life and towards spiritual life …. because the end is near ….

Proof of truth of the word …. response from God through mediator ….
B.D. 4464 from October 18th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
You are always free to ask Me where you are troubled by doubts, I hear you and will also answer you. But leave it up to Me in which form I want to give you the answer, only believe that I will give it to you. Consequently, evaluate My answer by not rejecting it but paying attention to it. Again and again I speak to you and try to win you over through My word, I try to make everything understandable to you and am never impatient because of your unwillingness; yet I often encounter contradiction because you stick to your preconceived opinion despite better knowledge and therefore don’t need an answer either because you give it to yourselves. Yet I still reserve an answer for Myself which will convince you, yet then you will no longer have the advantage for your soul from the conviction which you could gain if you believed without the evidence. How do you want to have the answer that it would be acceptable to you despite your will to reject it? Only I Myself can give it to you and do so through the mediation of a person who receives My word directly. If you listen to him, you hear Me Myself …. If My word does not apply through his mouth, you are unteachable and would not believe either if I were to confront you with a miracle.
You forget that I cannot reveal Myself to you directly as long as you are not deeply religious. You have to consider everything possible, only then can you also be honoured by a direct revelation from Me, for then it will no longer be a spiritual coercion for you. To gain faith through an extraordinary sign would be of no use to you, on the other hand you can acquire faith if you live according to My will. Every person can believe as soon as he loves …. Then the word itself will speak to him, then he will not need any evidence for the truth of the word. Moreover, the human being should only look around him, he should draw comparisons between the people who acknowledge My word from above and those who reject it. Then they will be able to perceive a distance, if they consider the connection with Me, to what extent it is form or life. And he will have to admit that those who believe in My word from above are far more serious about following My will, that they live a spiritually directed life because they feel Me in the word and My nearness will never remain without impression and therefore success can also be recorded. My word speaks for itself. Anyone who does not believe My word has not yet received it with his heart but only with his intellect. But the latter will not feel My presence, but the heart will, which will also instruct you and answer every question, every doubt, because I Myself take abode in the heart and speak to you. And you will always be able to hear Me if you believe deeply and steadfastly, for I will remain with you until the end ….
Amen

Supper ….
B.D. 4465 from October 19th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
And you shall be My guests who I invite to Supper. I will nourish you and quench your thirst with delectable sustenance for the soul, I will spiritualise your body so that its substances can also partake when the soul is being refreshed, so that it will mature faster, because this is possible with those people who consciously strive towards Me and desire to hear My Word. Be My guests and come to Me gladly to take Supper with Me at My table …. I will prepare you a meal of heavenly food with delectable manna which will provide you with strength and spiritual nourishment for your soul. I won’t deny you anything you desire, I Am always ready for you and lay out the table with delectable food because I love you and, as My guests, want to provide you with everything that pleases you. However, you should come gladly and yearn for Me, you should accept My invitation with a grateful heart and prepare yourselves for a dignified reception …. You should adorn yourselves in My honour as Host, don’t remain standing outside but step into My house and thereby profess that you are invited guests with a right to be fed at the table of the Lord, who belong to Him, who are His friends and who He therefore treats as a good host would by entertaining his friends and offering them the most delectable gifts as often as they want to receive them. Anyone who replenishes himself at My table will never ever go hungry and thirsty again and yet always return to Me full of desire, yearning for My presence and accepting from My hand what My love offers to him. For he will constantly draw refreshment from it, in his constant feeling of fulfilled desire he will be blissfully happy and desire Me without end. And so My Word will flow to Him incessantly, the bread of heaven, which secures eternal life for him. Come to the table of the Lord, delicious sustenance awaits you, take Supper with Me, let Me give you flesh and blood to enjoy so that you will be filled by strength …. Accept My Word and listen to Me when I speak to you, recognise Me as the most loving God and Father of eternity, as your friend and brother, and receive from My hand what My greater than great love offers you …. All of you, come to My table so that I can provide you with the food you need for your soul, so that I can feed and refresh all those who hunger and thirst for My Word, for My flesh and My blood ….
Amen

Influence of matter on humans ….
B.D. 4466 from October 21st 1948, taken from Book No. 52
Directed matter exerts great influence on the human being insofar as the spiritual bound in it urges him to unite with it, which therefore has the effect of the human being’s desire for its possession. The spiritual bound in matter pushes itself into the human being’s love …. it seeks to make itself indispensable to him, it strives to unite with the human being because it thereby feels stronger in its resistance against God. For it also senses the resistance the human being still has against God, or it pushes towards people who still resist God in their immaturity. And these people are also easily influenced. They themselves have the greatest desire for matter, and thus like-minded things come together which are only on different levels of development. But the human being is in danger of sinking from his already higher level of development if he chains himself to matter, which is why he cannot be warned enough to strive for matter and is constantly admonished to overcome it. The spiritual in matter can indeed also be willing to serve and help the human being in his ascent development, just as conversely the human being can help the spiritual bound in matter to ascend. But then it concerns objects of use which do not kindle the human being’s greed for possession, thus do not awaken the wrong love in the human being for material possessions. As soon as matter serves the human being the resistance against God is already broken; but matter which does not fulfil a serving purpose will often awaken an increased desire in the human being to possess it, and it is this matter which is regarded as a danger for the human being’s soul, for its influence on the soul is great and can have such an effect that the soul itself sinks to the stage where it is embodied in matter again. Then the bound spiritual has achieved what it wanted …. it has drawn the free spiritual down to itself and, as it were, strengthened its own power …. the human being has fallen prey to the influence of God’s adversary, who has influenced his will to use it in the wrong direction, who constantly presents dead matter to him in order to persuade him to relapse, because thereby he increases his kingdom, his power and violence and it stimulates the God-hostile beings into constant resistance. What turns towards God is lost to him, and this he tries to thwart with all means. Matter itself, i.e. the spiritual bound in it, is still in bondage to him in its immaturity, although God’s adversary cannot have a determining effect on the spiritual. But since the spiritual itself has not given up its resistance to God, it also pushes towards people who are in the same resistance, who are pointed to matter by God’s adversary, to whom he puts matter before the eye as a lure of the world. The human being can evade this influence or resist it with his will, yet he often uses the freedom of his will wrongly and gives in to the urge of the enemy of his soul. For this reason the battle against matter is the actual battle the human being should wage in earthly life, for once he has overcome it his ascent is also assured, because then there will be nothing holding him back on earth and then his soul can soar into spiritual spheres, because then nothing will hinder its flight upwards and thus there will no longer be any danger, and at the same time the human being then helps the spiritual substance in matter to ascend, which he uses, and thereby helps it to be of service, whereby the spiritual substance in matter can release itself from every form until it has finally also reached the last stage and can serve as a human being in free will ….

Spiritual transmissions of blessings for the beings in the hereafter ….
B.D. 4467 from October 22nd 1948, taken from Book No. 52
The beings of light are only rarely able to assert themselves insofar as they can persuade a human being to serve as a receiving device for direct transmissions from the spiritual kingdom. They are indeed constantly endeavouring to influence people mentally but a vessel which opens itself to the emanations of these beings is rarely to be found, and therefore they then use every opportunity to express themselves through such an open vessel and are constantly close to it. As soon as a transmission takes place the barrier between the earthly and the spiritual world has fallen, and countless beings are willing to listen to the spiritual instructions to earth, because this signifies a stay in the light and the souls from dark or spheres of little light strive towards every ray of light which touches them beneficially. And thus a human being who has prepared himself as a receptacle for the divine spirit and is now in contact with knowing beings gives countless beings in the beyond the opportunity to expand their knowledge and thereby to mature in realization and to develop upwards. And these souls are eternally grateful for it …. At the same time, however, the human being accepts brightest knowledge, he gathers spiritual goods which can never be replaced by better things. Therefore he is supported by all otherworldly forces. The opportunity will always be created for him to maintain this connection with the spiritual kingdom, knowing and ignorant beings stay close to him, yet forces which are well-disposed will always instruct him, and souls which are willing will attend those teachings, and therefore every opportunity should be used to establish contact with the spiritual kingdom, for the blessing for these souls is often greater in the beyond than on earth, because earthly people are without faith and don’t want to know about announcements from the spiritual kingdom. The beings of light are constantly willing to impart their knowledge to people on earth and are therefore extremely happy when they are offered an opportunity through a person’s will to have a teaching effect on him and through him on his fellow human beings ….
(23.10.1948) Their work in the spiritual kingdom consists of bringing light to the people entrusted to them who walk in spiritual darkness, i.e., to impart true thought knowledge which proceeds through mental transmission but which requires the human being’s will itself in order to be accepted. If a person is of help to them in that he encourages his fellow human beings to talk about spiritual topics and thereby opens their hearts to a certain extent, the beings of light can then intervene and influence both the speaker as well as the listener and thus convey truthful knowledge to earth. Very rarely can direct transmissions through the inner word take place, but where the connection has been established the beings of light are extremely active, and earthly as well as spiritually they stand by the receiver to support the spiritual work in every way. Yet they may never force the will to do so, which is why the human being may never be decisively influenced but his free will must strive for and assert the connection with the spiritual world. But the blessing of such a connection is great, for although little success can be seen on earth the countless souls in the beyond participate in the transmission and are eternally grateful to the human being who helps them to gain light, realization and knowledge ….

Power of the divine Word …. Antidote to suffering ….
B.D. 4468 from October 24th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
My love for you is infinite and I will grant your every request, but occasionally it happens in a way that you do not immediately recognise it as such, nevertheless, one day you will realise how well I take care of you. The last days will bring a variety of perils and suffering because you will have to mature quickly or you will not pass the last and difficult test. You will experience constant distress and should always bear in mind that everything comes from Me, that I know of your hardship and misery but that they are also a blessing for you. Therefore do not fear and complain but remain devoted to Me in love, just as My endless love belongs to you, too, and wants to make you happy …. You should sample the power of My Word and soon you will recognise that you have an effective antidote against all suffering, fear and sadness. I have blessed My Word with My strength …. Why do you not use it? Why do you not accept strength when you are in danger of weakening in your earthly battle and lose heart? Why do you not give yourselves to its invigorating effect? You constantly receive evidence of My love for you, you are in the midst of immense grace, and yet you are of so little faith and fickle, so timid and weak. What else could I offer you that is better than My Word?
If you did not experience earthly hardship and worries you would not be able to hear My Word, because the world would hold you captive and stop you from heartfelt contact with Me. And therefore you should obediently accept this hardship when you receive My Word as compensation, because My Word is a great treasure for you which you merely do not know how to get. Let Me always speak to you in My Word, take refuge in Me in the Word, contemplate the expression of My love and you will feel a marked influx of strength. You will no longer feel weakness, fear and oppression and will have no more doubt …. you will master earthly life in full strength and honour and praise My love and grace, and then you will be active labourers for Me in the last battle on this earth. I bless your willingness to serve Me but you should also activate it by doing what I ask of you. Time and again I remind you to accept My Word within yourselves because I want to give you the strength of My Word, because I want to help you but need your free will to do so if you are to derive the right benefit from My help. You have to struggle yourselves because it is the only way you can arrive at faith, the profound faith that you will need in order to be loyal servants to Me on earth. What you receive from Me, what you write down, has to be considered by you in your heart, it has to come alive in you, so that you can endorse My Word with conviction, so that the effect is not lost on your fellow human being and he feels the strength of My Word in himself. You will always receive help in your need, and the more you fulfil My will the sooner you will receive help …. However, it is My will that you should contemplate My Word more often so that you become conscious of My presence and believe …. And as soon as you have profound faith the fulfilment of all your wishes will also be certain ….
Amen

Mission …. reciprocation for reception: forwarding the word ….
B.D. 4469 from October 25th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
If knowledge is conveyed to you through My love, if I reveal Myself to you and introduce you to the eternal truth, this is also connected with a mission for which I want to make you suitable through My revelation. You receive a precious gift from Me for which I demand something in return, which only consists of you passing on what you receive to your fellow human beings. For My love and concern for the salvation of their souls applies to all My creations, all My creations walk in darkness as long as they are not in contact with Me. But in order to establish this connection they have to be taught, and this is your mission, it is the service I require of you who want to be active for Me for My sake. But as soon as you have surrendered your will to Me you are no longer responsible for your actions and thoughts, for I Myself already work in you because your own will no longer opposes Me. But you always give up your own will if you unite with Me to receive My word, My revelations, which are conveyed to your heart and intellect through the spirit within you. If you have the will to serve Me, to be active for Me and My kingdom, if you have the will to fulfil My commandments and to live on earth to please Me, then you are already Mine and you will always do what I want, because My spirit works in you and will not determine you against My will. There is only one danger that you will break off your connection with Me of your own free will, that you will become unfaithful to Me and sell yourselves to the world and thus to its ruler, to My adversary, for the sake of despicable worldly reward …. But you, who inwardly hear My word, need no longer fear this danger, for the world will no longer be able to offer you anything that surpasses My word, and you will never want to miss the precious gift of grace and therefore seek Me again and again in order to hear My voice. And therefore you will be able to fulfil your mission, you will willingly let yourselves be guided by Me and always give in to the inner urge when the opportunity approaches you where you are to speak in My name. I will assign the work to you Myself as soon as the hour of your activity for Me has come, but just as I already determine your path of life in accordance with your mission, and you will often feel My guidance, My rule and activity will be obvious to you, for I have taken possession of you and will never ever leave you. And it is My spirit which controls you, which determines your thoughts, will and actions, thus you are guided by Me and can let everything approach you without worry, for it will not come differently than it is My will, and as it comes it is good for you and successful for your fellow human beings. And thus wait for My call which places you into a new task of life and trust Me that I will safely guide you to the aim, that you will be able to accomplish everything with My help and that I Myself will remain with you until the end ….
Amen

Various spiritual activities: wisdom, seeing, prophecy …. (Konnersreuth)
B.D. 4470 from October 26th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
My spirit can only become effective where people have aligned themselves with My fundamental nature, where they have shaped themselves into love. The individual’s life, which denomination he belongs to and which origin he has, is irrelevant, and therefore everyone can cultivate different habits, everyone can practice different customs and traditions, everyone can have been educated in different religious doctrines …. as soon as he lives a life of love according to My will he can also be filled by My spirit and achieve supernatural things. However, the working of the spirit is of a different kind insofar as one person is imparted profound wisdom, profound spiritual knowledge, while the other is able to see spiritually, thus he can see and experience things which are most closely related to the spiritual kingdom, to Me Myself and the host of pure spirits. Thus he can look into the spiritual kingdom, which is the last aim of all human beings. With others again the gift of prophecy is the working of the spirit, so that they are able to look into the future and see the coming events taking place before their eyes. These, too, are filled with My Spirit, so that they must speak to their fellow men about their visions and about their prophetic gift. To see past, present and future things is the sign of an already high degree of maturity of the human being who is deprived of every concept of time as soon as he directs his gaze spiritually and thus now dwells spiritually in spheres far away from earth, his present sphere of activity. Such people are to be believed as long as their life is an exemplary life of love. Then no other than beings of light can make themselves known through them, then My spirit works in these people, for they are united with Me through love and can never stand apart from My will and act and think according to their own will. Love is therefore the surest sign of My presence, love is the guarantee for My working, no matter in which form the working of the spirit is expressed.
Thus My spirit can and will also work where a person was educated in the wrong direction of faith, where his thinking was steered into the wrong path by incompetent teachers in whom My spirit could not work and impart the pure truth to them. However, a person who thus thinks wrongly can nevertheless experience the working of My spirit through a right life of love, yet in a different form than through the transmission of truthful knowledge, for this would sometimes contradict the teachings of faith imparted to him and be of little use to the recipient. Thus My spirit works first by allowing the human being to gain insight into spiritual spheres which visually convey the truth to him, so that spiritual events are presented to him which correspond to the teachings of each individual denomination, which correspond to the truth, so that the working of the spirit will therefore only ever result in truth, even though the form is different ….
(27.10.1948) People shall be given evidence of the truth of what is taught but can no longer be proven by documents, then the working of the spirit will extend to past results and it will make them visible to the person in whom it can work so that he will bear witness to things which can no longer be proven otherwise. Such people will see the past and the future with spiritual eyes, and they must always be granted the working of My spirit, which necessitates a profound, strong faith which can be found where love is present. Truthful knowledge cannot be conveyed from above to earth everywhere, because the acceptance of it requires a completely neutral heart which is free from a specific teaching, which, as it were, offers no resistance through its own spiritual knowledge which contradicts the truth. It must unconditionally accept what is offered to it from above. And therefore the human being may not be bound by knowledge which was given to him from outside and which does not correspond to the truth …. And therefore spiritual working in this form is rarely possible, because mostly the seekers have already joined a school of thought, whereas people outside of every school of thought are rarely seeking, rather they have no faith at all, but faith in Me and My working is the first prerequisite for My spirit to become effective in a person. A person who lives in love but is weak in faith likewise opposes My direct working in him through the spirit, otherwise I could express Myself far more through the human mouth; yet they don’t want to acknowledge a direct working, a transfer of My word to a person, because they lack this faith. And thus I can certainly arrange their thoughts and give them understanding for the only truth, I can also mentally introduce them to knowledge which they cannot accept from outside, yet they will always regard their thoughts as their own and not want to see My working in them. But where My spirit can work in an obvious way, where love and faith enable a direct transfer of My word to a person, there the power of the spirit clearly appears, and there all people should seek clarification, because then they can be certain of the fullest truth, because it is I Myself Who gives them this clarification through a person’s mouth and hand. And I will always make sure that a source of truth gives living water to those who are thirsty; I will always make sure that bearers of truth walk the earth who can be true guides for their fellow human beings, who only impart to them what they have received from Me, who have prepared themselves to be the receiving vessel of the spirit and are therefore constantly instructed by My spirit in the truth, so that they will pass it on and be active in teaching according to My will ….
Amen

Absolute truth ….
B.D. 4471 from October 28th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
Knowledge can certainly be made accessible to you, who have the grace of being directly instructed from above, which completely corresponds to the truth, and therefore you can also always represent what is imparted to you as truth. But it is nevertheless to be understood that people who are not instructed in this way doubt it and rather regard as truth what was gained as a result through eager reflection, through lively intellectual activity. And since these results are mostly of quite different kinds and people cannot or do not want to close their minds to either the one or the other reasoning or execution, and are also never able to recognize what is right by virtue of their intellect, the assertion has been made: Truth is relative …. But here men are gravely mistaken. And with this assertion they also reject the originator of truth, the essence which exists from eternity in this concrete truth, which can never change, otherwise it would become untrue to itself. Truth is fundamental law …. The way things are must be based on eternity, for truth is like the eternal order, the law, which is eternally irrevocable because it emerged from God, the most perfect being Which can never contradict Itself. During his time on earth the human being is indeed free to deviate from the truth by virtue of his free will, to overturn the law of eternal order, but it will always have a detrimental effect on the human being himself because it is contrary to law, because it does not correspond to the truth which is conveyed to people by God Himself. There is one truth, and this is with God …. Everything aspiring to God first seeks to penetrate this truth, which was and is its share in the state of perfection, but which is clouded or defaced and not recognized in the state of imperfection. Perfection and truth are not two concepts, but one results from the other. Therefore, where different views are still regarded as truth, the degree of maturity of people is also different, which determines the ability to judge and the bright realization of the divine, which includes pure truth. A person’s degree of maturity requires a way of life that corresponds to the divine will, it requires an adaptation to the eternal order, to the law of love, in which the eternal deity moves Itself …. Then the human being will know the fullest truth, and he will also recognize that there can only be one truth, that it can only originate from God as the eternal truth, and he will also recognize that the human being’s aim on earth is to come into possession of the truth from God, and that this truth must therefore be found, that it therefore cannot be denied, otherwise all faith in God would be invalid, in a being Which was, is and will remain perfect for all eternity ….

Abolishing the laws of nature …. satan’s power at the end ….
B.D. 4472 from October 29th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
You must let yourselves be taught by Me if you want to stand in truth, and thus you must also listen to Me if I want to speak to you. I always want to speak to you in order to enlighten you, because you are all still very much in error and need much clarification: The lawgiver of eternity is truly at liberty to also overturn the laws if it favours His eternal plan of salvation, so that souls could thereby be won for eternity. Yet I only rarely make use of this right because My wisdom of eternity recognized how extremely favourable My laws are for the winning of souls for My kingdom and therefore I have no reason to repeal them. Yet in the last days before the end I will repeal many a law …. as I have announced through seers and prophets that the powers of heaven will move so that people will recognize the time of the end by the signs …. At this time you will experience things which are impossible by nature and which also give the researchers and scholars proof that I direct nature and can also let events occur which are contrary to nature at My discretion. And My adversary also takes advantage of this time by likewise divesting himself of his strength and also performing miracles, yet of a completely different kind, because he aims to cause people’s apostasy from Me and therefore wants to present himself to people as equally strong and powerful …. And you humans are now at the mercy of this as long as you don’t have knowledge of Me and My eternal plan of salvation yourselves.
(30.10.1948) Satan will always try to influence your thoughts in such a way that you turn away from Me. He wants to deprive you of all knowledge of Me, he wants to rule over you alone, yet not for your blessing but for your ruin. And if I allowed this you would all be lost. But I do not limit his power at all but leave it up to you humans yourselves whether you want to give it to him or whether you refuse him and join Me. Thus I also fight for you, and I do so with truth, I bring you light and then let you choose the path yourselves which you want to take, yet I enlighten this path for you, I don’t want you to walk in darkness and be unable to find the right path. Yet My adversary also lets light flash, but they are only deceptive lights which blind you and place you in even greater darkness, so that you run the great risk of missing the right path and falling into the abyss. But the truth shines brightly and clearly, and I bring it to you and therefore want to speak to you, and you shall listen to Me. If you are informed of the truth you will never ever grant My adversary the right over you, for then you will see through him and know about his nature, about his evil plans and about your fate in eternity if you fall prey to him. And you will avoid him and take refuge in My arms, for the truth also shows you My nature, which is only love for all My living creations …. never ever will I allow you humans to be completely deprived of the knowledge of your destiny, never ever will I leave you to My adversary without a fight, and never ever will he be allowed to ascend to the throne by completely dominating you, My living creations, and forcibly pushing you away from Me. Yet I will not forcibly influence you humans, you will always be free to let yourselves be taught by Me, to accept My teaching and thus also be guided into the right knowledge. But if you listen to Me you will also escape from his power, for even he cannot force you but he can make you submissive to him if you don’t resist him. And I will help you to resist him by supplying you with the pure truth, for this will give you strength and increased will to turn to Me and escape from him ….
(31.10.1948) Satan’s power is therefore great, and you will experience things at the end of times which will prove his power to you, yet it does not extend to creations which are still carriers of the bound spiritual. Thus he can certainly influence people by trying to influence their will, and with his support these people will be able to accomplish extraordinary things, yet his power does not extend beyond the human being, and therefore I will also step forward in the end in a very special way in order to counteract his power, that is, to give people proof of My existence as far as this is possible without compulsory faith. I obviously intervene in the laws of nature …. I abolish laws but announce this beforehand, as I have always done in order to prove the truth of My word to people and to reveal Myself as creator and controller, as almighty God, so that they will believe and know that the time of the end has come. I announce Myself and appear when the time is right. What has never been observed before will then come to light, what was completely impossible will become possible through My will, and science will be faced with riddles which are unsolvable to it. I abolish the laws of nature …. what this means no human being can imagine because it has not been experienced before. Yet this, too, is part of My plan from eternity, that satan’s power will be contrasted with My might and power in the last days and that people can now freely decide which power they want to be subject to. For now human powers and inexplicable supernatural power are facing each other again …. Destructions take place through the former, which are works of satan, because hatred, unkindness, greed for possessions and all bad instincts are the cause, whereas My working cannot be attributed to any human influence, thus other than human forces must be the cause and are therefore visible evidence to the believers that the end has come …. Anyone who has been informed of the truth will find it easy to believe. And therefore you should come to Me, you should request the truth from Me and accept it if I convey it to you directly or through My messengers ….
Amen

Disciples of the end time …. spreading the truth ….
B.D. 4473 from November 2nd 1948, taken from Book No. 52
My disciples of the last days are instructed to convey to you humans that which will help you attain beatitude …. My word, which is conveyed to them in all purity from above through My love. The fact that I chose these disciples Myself must be understandable to you if you consider that the teaching, which is spread on earth as My teaching, is no longer pure and unadulterated and that I cannot allow the truth to be increasingly suppressed; that I therefore take care to convey the pure truth to people again and that this can only happen in such a way that a person receives it in the form of My word, which comes directly from Me and therefore guarantees fullest truth. My representatives by name could likewise serve Me as recipients if they lived according to My will, i.e. if they lived a right life of love, a life of unselfish neighbourly love and …. which is very important …. could believe in My direct working of the spirit. But they lack this faith because they have also lost the knowledge of My working of the spirit. And thus I Myself have to look for My disciples and train them as bearers of truth, I have to reveal Myself to those who carry this faith within themselves, who consider no thing impossible because everything is possible for God. To these I now bring My gospel with the mission to spread it throughout the world. I now take real pleasure in those who comply with My mission in their eagerness to serve Me, who are therefore constantly willing to listen to the inner voice and don’t let anything from outside dissuade them from their intention, which is truly extremely beneficial for themselves and also for their fellow human beings. For I need these co-workers on earth to spread the pure truth, because it cannot be offered other than through human mouths to people who are still weak in faith and do not enter into direct contact with Me in order to be able to hear Me Myself. Admittedly, the act of transmitting the truth will always remain incomprehensible to people as long as they are not profoundly devout and live in love themselves. And therefore the spreaders of truth will always be met with doubt, but this shall not disturb My disciples of the last days in their work for Me and My kingdom. The truth will prevail, it will be victorious, albeit after a difficult battle against the one who, as the prince of lies, wants to suppress the truth and therefore will act with hostility against the bearers of truth. The truth is from Me and therefore the bearer of truth also fights with Me …. But the end is near, and only those who possess the truth will not perish in the end but enter the paradise of the new earth as My followers. And therefore My disciples’ mission is of utmost urgency, for the end is near and with it the last judgment ….
Amen

Working charity …. union with God ….
B.D. 4474 from November 2nd 1948, taken from Book No. 52
Labouring neighbourly love connects you with Me. That is why you should practice it, otherwise I cannot stay near you, otherwise I am not present to you. But how does it look in the world? How far away are people from Me because they live without love, because they only have their own well-being in mind and don’t pay attention to their fellow human beings’ hardship. They are far away from Me …. You humans don’t know what it means when I cannot be present to you, you don’t know how powerless you are, how little you can do for your spiritual development which, after all, is the aim and purpose of your earthly life. You are without light and without strength, even though you are powerful on earth and create earthly great things. If you don’t have love then all your striving on earth is futile, for the death of the body puts an end to everything, you have to leave behind everything you created on earth, for only works of love will follow you into eternity. And yet I want to win you for eternity, I want you to warm yourselves in the rays of My sun of love, that you live in light and bliss, that you long for Me and I can always and constantly satisfy your longing. I want to make you aspirants of My kingdom and possess you for ever …. And all this is your share as soon as you are active in love, as soon as you practice active neighbourly love and thus draw Me to you, Who is love Myself. Try it out, muster the will to perform services of neighbourly love, in thought of Me distribute gifts which you have received from Me yourselves and which make yourselves happy, never let your neighbour go hungry if he asks you for gifts of love, put your selfish love aside and you will feel the success by mentally occupying yourselves with Me, by looking for the truth and you will also find it, for then you will live in love by yourselves because My nearness impels you to it. With My nearness I make everyone happy who is active in neighbourly love for the sake of My word. Keep this commandment, and if you are the only one to fulfil it, it will truly be enough to secure My closeness for you. And if you are thus united with Me then you are also won for the spiritual kingdom. You must fulfil this commandment if you want to become blessed …. you must help each other in spiritual as well as in earthly adversity, so that I can then also help you to the same extent. I can only approach you when you prove your love to Me by expressing it to your fellow human being. You are all My creatures, you are My children and I your father from eternity, and thus you should also treat each other well, that you do good to each other, that you alleviate hardship and provide help where it is needed. Then I will be constantly present to you, and in the awareness of My presence you will already find the peace on earth which I have promised you ….
Amen

New banishment in matter ….
B.D. 4475 from November 3rd 1948, taken from Book No. 52
The soul has an infinitely long way to go before it can move into the physical shell as a human being. And this path is so dreadfully agonizing that one can rightly speak of hell, especially as long as solid matter is still its cover. Then the spiritual feels the fetter, the unfree, and especially because this stage is mostly granted to it after the stage of freedom of will. Usually the new banishment into matter is preceded by the embodiment as a human being, where he has failed. This new banishment into matter is imminent again, and people still have the opportunity to escape it if they make the most of the short earthly journey they still have to cover until the end and use the time for diligent soul work. They are still in possession of free will and vitality, which also enables them to carry out their will. In the state of new banishment the will is bound so that the spiritual can and must only move according to God’s will; also not the slightest strength is at its disposal until it gives up its resistance against God and can hope for a small supply of strength. If people knew about this agonizing state they are approaching they would do everything to escape it. Therefore they shall be informed of it …. But faith is lacking and they must not be proven it, otherwise their way of life would be futile according to God’s will, thus it would only be put aside out of fear but not in free will as it is necessary in order to escape the new banishment. People’s attention is drawn to them and they are made aware of their responsibility, but their decision remains free. However, it is understandable how extremely serious this decision is and in what profound spiritual hardship humanity finds itself, which does not believe in the end and in a last judgment. The individual person is influenced in every way so that he will reflect and pay attention to the state of his soul, and God will truly leave no stone unturned in order to win people’s souls, yet if people lack all faith, His word will also not direct anything through which people could be guided into truth and receive great knowledge, but which would then also lead a way of life in accordance with God’s will. Nevertheless, it is of utmost importance to present the divine word to people so that a few will still accept it and their souls will be protected from a repeated journey through all creations of the new earth, so that they will be able to enter the kingdom of light in the end, into eternal beatitude ….
Amen

Exhortation to work for God and His kingdom ….
B.D. 4476 from November 4th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
Anyone who therefore serves Me by speaking for Me and My kingdom gives himself to Me so that I can speak through him and he will receive My blessing in return. I want to give him strength to work for Me, and thus he will also be successful, and people will listen to My words and process them in their hearts. Every soul which makes contact with Me through you, My servants, will be able to enjoy My love, it will feel My working as desire for truth and desire for Me, Who am the eternal truth Myself …. and it will be granted to it …. Promote Me and strive to bring light into the darkness which lies over the earth …. Carry My teaching of love into the world, instruct those who listen to you and enlighten them about My working and about the near end. Instruct them about their earthly task and admonish them to love, make My will known to them and urge them to fulfil it, and do good to all who get in your way. Set a good example so that you will win over your fellow human beings for My teaching, which preaches love and gives love, which originates from Me and leads to Me, and make yourselves My servants by passing on My teaching of love …. and you will earn My pleasure, I will give you the reward I have promised you, I will be your constant protector and companion and take care of you like a father, because you want to help Me guide the erring souls onto the right path and illuminate it with the light which originated from Me …. And your work will be blessed ….
Amen

Worldly minded servants of God ….
B.D. 4477 from November 5th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
There are many worldly-minded servants of God on earth, and they are truly not the right representatives of My teaching because they do not know the truth, but this is necessary for an office which aims to spread My teaching. For the truth must be offered to people in all purity if success is to be achieved for the souls. “You all have to be taught by God ….”, it is written, and this word is truth, for only God as the eternal truth can impart knowledge to you which corresponds to truth. Thus you can certainly accept spiritual knowledge from outside, yet My spirit must first work in you before you recognize the external information as truth and become inwardly convinced that the word is from Me. Therefore spiritual activity is absolutely necessary; but My spirit places conditions on you which you first have to fulfil before it can become effective. One of them is complete devotion to God …. intimate connection with Me, but this cannot take place if you are still too attached to the world. For the eye can never be directed outwards and inwards; moreover, the world is My adversary’s kingdom, but My kingdom is the spiritual world from where pure truth is offered to you. Hence the world must be avoided, the heart must willingly detach itself from it because it longs for the spiritual kingdom, and thus spiritual striving is the first prerequisite for a servant of God to stand in truth. Only then will he be able to recognize the written word as truth, only then will his thinking be enlightened so that he can work as My representative on earth and be active on My behalf, for My honour and for the blessing of his fellow human beings ….
Amen

Destiny …. maturing opportunities …. exams ….
B.D. 4478 from November 5th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
Every thought of Me, every call to Me touches Me and I don’t let it go unnoticed. And thus I have knowledge of the human being’s entire emotional life and know about his innermost impulses and thus also about the nature of his will. And if this will meets Me, then the human being will find the most faithful friend and caring father in Me, for then I will know that he wants to belong to My own and will gladly accept him. And then his fate is just a chain of maturing possibilities, for I want to help him to eternal beatitude and also make earthly life bearable for him, which is only possible with My support. A person who hands himself over to Me gains everything; but anyone who denies himself to Me will also be deprived of that which he had previously acquired, which was imparted to him through My grace and which he left unnoticed. I stretch out My hands towards the wrestler because he strives towards Me; yet anyone who turns his back on Me I let go wherever he is tempted, for My warnings go unheard in his ears. And no one who wants to come to Me need fear that he will not reach his aim. I know the will of the individual, and I protect his soul from falling away from Me. And therefore you can be without worry if I give you the assurance that you will reach the aim, for My love for you, My living creations, is too great for Me to leave you to the adversary if you want to come to Me. And although you often have to go through hard trials the thought should always comfort you that the trials come from Me and only because your soul matures in a shorter time, because there is not much time left until the end. Soon you will have passed the test of earthly life and be able to enter My kingdom as free, blissful spirits …. and you will reach the aim and unite with Me, because I am present to you as soon as you call upon Me in prayer and desire to receive My word …. I am with you and will remain with you until the end; therefore believe and love and hope, so that you will enter My kingdom as My children when you depart from this earth ….
Amen

Doubts about truth of announcements …. natural disaster ….
B.D. 4479 from November 6th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
You should not trouble yourselves with doubts, and that is why I answer every question you ponder in your heart and which makes you uneasy. Why can’t you believe that the time you live on earth is only short? Why don’t you want to take My announcement literally and seriously prepare yourselves for a quick end? Why does a non-occurrence of My predictions seem more probable to you? Why don’t you just believe My word and wait for the things to come? As I tell you, so it is and so it will come, and you will all be surprised at the sudden turn you do not expect because it will come sooner than you think. Whom I choose to be bearers of truth, whom I have assigned such a task to receive My word directly and to write it down for fellow human beings, him I will protect for the sake of truth from an influence which is opposed to My working. He is in My service and I will never allow My adversary to use him to place error next to truth. Nor do I want My servants to see things unclearly themselves, that they are weak in faith and doubt where they should spread the truth with conviction …. And therefore I speak to them again and again and point them to the coming time which will bring them the evidence that My word is purest truth. The fact that a short time will pass should by no means make you insecure in your speeches. You can represent every word which has been received through you from above, and you need never fear to have interwoven your own spiritual knowledge which contradicts the truth, for you are in My service. The fact that I have accepted you as My servants is proven to you by the transmission of My word. But anyone who is once My servant only carries out his master’s will and his will is completely subordinate to Mine. Therefore he will only do what I want him to do and especially enjoy My protection in the spiritual work which is meant for the spreading of pure truth. He will only receive and assimilate truth, and he truly need not fear any erroneous addition. I repeat again that you are about to experience the greatest upheaval that has taken place on this earth. Whoever survives it will be able to speak of a miracle, but many of those who have knowledge of it through you, My servants and prophets of the last days, will survive My intervention because they shall serve as witnesses that I have made Myself known beforehand and thus My plan from eternity is evident from it. And this is why I delay so long, so that many people will still be given the opportunity to take notice of My rule and activity and of My revelation through the elements of nature …. But the time will soon be over, then there will be no more day of delay …. You would be frightened if you knew how near the event is that I am announcing again and again …. You should not doubt when I Myself announce this to you, you should believe without hesitation, you should know that it is I Myself Who speaks to you and that I convey nothing but purest truth to you and truly protect you from enforcing the truth with error. Let your faith grow stronger so that you can stand up for My word with complete conviction, which is conveyed to you from above, because it is My will that you should have knowledge of it in order to prepare yourselves and appeal to Me for strength, which you will truly need when the day has come which will prove the truth of My word to you ….
Amen

"You must be taught by God …."
B.D. 4480 from November 7th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
And you shall all be taught by God …. My spirit has to work in you so that you can meet spiritual instruction with understanding, no matter in which way it comes to you. If you are taught directly by Me it is only a result or sign of My spiritual working in you; if you receive instructions from outside, through My servants on earth, through fellow human beings who are instructed in truth or through the written word, you will only understand it when you receive enlightenment through the spirit within you, when the one who is My part can work in you …. when you have a divine teacher. And you should all commend yourselves to him, otherwise every external instruction is useless for you. Divinity wants to be grasped with the spirit and human intellect alone cannot comprehend it, and if he tries to assimilate it without the spirit’s support then it will emerge as human work, deformed and incomprehensible, in a form which no longer has anything in common with pure truth, and then people will not know but be in error. You must therefore let yourselves be taught by God …. you must not oppose Me if I am to instruct you, and thus you must first seek contact with Me through heartfelt prayer and then, if you present questions to Me, listen within and wait for the answer. And most people don’t pay attention to this process and don’t wait until the answer clearly and distinctly arises in them, their thoughts wander and thereby make an instruction impossible which, however, will certainly be granted to them if they devote themselves to Me and listen inwards. Heartfelt prayer and the desire for the right answer will also let them think clearly and truthfully, for I enlighten the spirit of the one who calls for Me and asks Me for it. Then he can also consider himself taught by Me, and I will truly not instruct him differently than the recipient of My direct word, for what My spirit imparts to people is always and everywhere the same, because truth can never change. And thus you all have the opportunity to acquire the pure truth if you come to Me and approach Me for it; I will always be a true teacher for you and introduce you to the truth as soon as you request it ….
Amen

Sounding word ….
B.D. 4481 from November 8th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
You must be in a particularly devout state of mind if you want to hear the sounding word within you. You must be completely permeated by love for Me and thereby also so united with Me that you feel Me present, that you sense Me to a certain extent and thus can also hear My voice as clearly spoken words which will touch you in a very strange way. My presence has now become certainty for you, you now have proof of what you had only believed until now; but since your faith is profound I can also provide you with the proof without putting you into a state of forced faith. Yet this gift of grace results in a state of deepest calm and quiet bliss and increased will for spiritual activity. Yet it will not remain a permanent state for the time being but only a crowning of particularly loving devotion to Me until the actual mission begins, which requires a constant ability to hear My word. Yet you are free to enter into intimate contact with Me if you want to, and therefore a constant striving upwards is necessary, a more frequent immersion in yourselves and listening to My spirit, which always makes itself known to you if you desire to hear it. And you will increase in maturity of soul, you will now eagerly carry out spiritual work and always be able to be certain of My love and grace ….
Amen

God of love …. not God of wrath ….
B.D. 4482 from November 9th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
Recognize God’s love in His rule and activity and not His wrath, for everything He does or allows to happen is only for your perfection but never an expression of His wrath. Although He can also be angry about satan’s power which he uses to harm the souls, God always tries to compensate the souls through His love for what the adversary has caused with his hatred. For He is far greater than His adversary, and He wages the battle against him with a weapon which will bring victory …. His weapon is love which nothing can resist …. and His love is accompanied by infinite patience, which is why He also does not give up anything which initially resists Him. He finally wins it through His love, yet His creations are not always willing to recognize His love, instead they see God as a punishing God, as a God of wrath and destruction. But that even apparent works of destruction are based on His profound love, that they are only means of love in order to promote the soul’s perfection, is something people do not want to realize because they lack understanding precisely due to their lack of love, which is a sign of their imperfection. A God of wrath would destroy everything. But the God of love is intent on the preservation of everything that has emerged from Him, and as soon as a work of destruction takes place on earth it is nevertheless only an act of transformation but not of complete destruction and only for the purpose of preserving and perfecting that which is in need of transformation because it wanted to separate from its creator but inevitably has to find its way to Him. And thus even such works of destruction only speak of God’s great love, for nothing is lost in the process, nothing comes to harm but only enters into another state which enables it to find its way upwards. Even the last work of destruction on this earth, which results in the complete destruction of His creations on earth, only aims at the reclamation of the deeply fallen spiritual and has been decided by God’s love and wisdom since eternity, so that the spiritual will not sink even lower and make a return to Him impossible. His love establishes everything, His love determines everything, His infinite love also achieves everything He wants, and nothing other than love will ever determine His will ….
Love is the elementary power from which everything emerged, and this elementary power never splinters, it remains eternally unchanging and therefore also applies eternally to His creatures with whom He wants to be united in love forever …. What wanted to separate itself from Him of its own free will and thereby got into a state distant from God has left the circle of love and wants to be grasped by God’s love again, because otherwise it is wretched. And therefore this wretched person is His constant concern, which is expressed in such a way that God’s wrath appears to be expressed, which, however, only appears so to the blind in spirit who has no knowledge of the means God’s love uses. The purpose and final aim of all events is the reclamation of the apostate from God, because God’s love does not want to lose anything, does not give up anything and does not leave anything to His adversary which has emerged from His love …. And thus even the spiritual will one day surrender to His love, which still remains at the greatest distance from God, because His love overcomes everything, conquers everything and takes possession of everything in order to make it eternally blissful ….

Prayer in spirit and in truth prerequisite for the working of the spirit ….
B.D. 4483 from November 10th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
You can only hear the voice of the spirit within you after you open your heart through heartfelt prayer. And this prayer must be directed towards Me in spirit and in truth, otherwise I will close My ear and you will wait in vain for divine enlightenment. This is a law which has to be fulfilled, but which was not always fulfilled where the enlightenment of the spirit was necessary in order to be instructed in the pure truth. Anyone who is responsible as a teacher and leader for the souls of those he instructs must first stand in truth himself and make the transmission of truth possible through intimate contact with Me, he must know that I and truth are one, that therefore truth cannot be received without Me and that the connection with Me must be established first, otherwise the connection with truth cannot be achieved either. But the connection with Me depends on the human being’s free will, and therefore he must turn to Me of his own accord, which happens through heartfelt prayer, through prayer in spirit and in truth …. Anyone who prays like this will also hear My voice, his thoughts will be guided such that they will move in truth, even though My word is not audibly heard by him due to his lack of maturity of soul. For this presupposes a certain degree of maturity which is not reached by all people who ask for the truth. And therefore people who proceed intellectually can also live in truth if they have first established the most intimate connection with Me, however, their way of life must also correspond to My will, they must live a life of love, otherwise My working on them through the spirit is impossible. For I, love and truth are one …. Again and again this has to be explained to you humans, that you recognize people’s spirit by their fruits and thus can never grant right thinking to someone who does not live according to My will, and thus you will always have a standard if you want to test a person’s statements for their credibility. Anyone who lives in love, who acknowledges Me and seeks the truth, will also live in truth and his thinking will be right, for I will enlighten his spirit so that the truth will spread through him ….

The doctrine of the Trinity of God ….
B.D. 4484 from November 11th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
You have the gift of being able to use your intellect and you ought to use this gift. In an earthly respect your life compels you to do so and you readily comply with this compulsion. It is the most natural thing in the world for you to think about everything you encounter, to explore and ponder and thus intellectually enhance your earthly knowledge. But only rarely if ever do you use your intellect in order to acquire spiritual knowledge of your own inner accord. You certainly allow yourselves to receive it from external sources and accept it without using your intellect, without scrutinising or thinking about it. But you don’t assimilate it with your intellect and thus you don’t use the latter, or you misuse it by drawing entirely wrong conclusions because you accept the spiritual knowledge you receive without examination. But He Who endowed you with intellect will also hold you to account as to how you have used it.
Countless people live with misconceptions because they don’t think about doctrines which should motivate their scrutiny because, in the form they are presented to people, they are simply unacceptable …. Admittedly, you reject all scrutiny with the remark that you, as human beings, are incapable of making a correct judgment, and you are right insofar as your intellect alone is not enough for this. Yet each and every time this has to be countered by the fact that enlightenment by the spirit can and always must be requested in order to truthfully explain the most difficult problems, and that God will never deny His assistance to someone who seriously wants it. And thus it is also possible for a human being to get an explanation for questions which the intellect alone is unable to answer. But the less a person believes that he is incapable of making a correct judgment the more it is necessary to appeal to God for assistance. This is more advisable than to accept doctrines which a person finds difficult to accept, for whatever a person wants to endorse as truth also has to be completely explained to him, on account of which teachings from above are constantly conveyed to earth which bring light into the spiritual darkness. And darkness is wherever the truth is being displaced or veiled, where misguided teachings are spread and upheld by people as truth. And this darkness shall be penetrated by light …. Lies and error shall be displaced by the truth, it shall be exposed where people are wrongly instructed, because only the truth leads to eternal life and only the truth is divine, whereas misguided teachings are God-opposing ….
And so it is essential to throw light on a doctrine which, mixed up and completely distorted by the enemy of souls, has found approval amongst people, and precisely because the latter did not use their gift of intellect and accepted without inspection what they were offered: the doctrine of the Trinity of God …. This doctrine is completely incomprehensible, that is, it cannot be rationally grasped and understood, it is an unacceptable explanation of the eternal Deity because it is absurd, since the human being who is professing it is not allowed to think about it anymore or, if he thinks about it, cannot admit to it …. Wanting to place the eternal Deity into a strictly-limited form is a sign of those people’s imperfection who accept this teaching. Every form is a strictly-limited concept but God’s Being is limitless because it is something profoundly perfect. Hence something supremely perfect cannot be divided either, for perfection is a state of spirit and something spiritual can never be divided into three parts …. thus one can never speak of a three-person God because it is an inconceivable concept which will lead to completely wrong points of view about the Deity’s nature. God the Father …. God the Son …. and God the holy Spirit …. these concepts do not justify the assumption that three persons have united themselves as the eternal Deity, hence that these three amount to one God, whereas the nature of God can be made comprehensible to people if the three concepts are explained such that the ‘Father’ is love, the ‘Son’ is wisdom and the ‘Spirit’ is strength ….
And this alone is the correct explanation which is the foundation of the doctrine of the Trinity of God, yet due to misunderstanding it was wrongly interpreted and resulted in the misguided teaching that the Deity consists of three persons.
The spirit of God, the partial concept of God’s Nature, can never be personified; it cannot be limited to a form in line with human ideas, it is an infinite abundance of light and strength which is directed and used by an exceptionally strong will of love. The light is God …. the strength is God …. and the will of love is God …. one is not without the other, everything Divine incorporates this Trinity within Itself; it is the sign of perfection if love, wisdom and strength are inherent in a being, in which case it has become an image of God. Yet it is only ever one Being …. not a form but something infinite, spiritual, which requires no form in order to exist and which would burst all forms if they had not spiritualised themselves first, so that they were able to contain love, wisdom and strength in abundance without ceasing to exist.
Such a form was the human being Jesus, Who was chosen by God as the carrier of the entire abundance of love, wisdom and strength in order to serve people as a conceivable Deity so that they can believe in an Essence Which, being of supreme perfection, is nevertheless in connection with imperfect people, His living creations. But this form was purely physical, it was effectively only at the disposal of physical onlookers because the spirit requires no form in order to be able to be seen …. The idea of Father, Son and holy Spirit as three separate entities …. even with the addition that they are one …. is misleading, because people will then be at risk of implementing a separation by calling upon every part individually and will thereby increase the consciousness of each of the three parts, thereby losing the right, truthful sense of the one God to Whom alone they should turn in every earthly and spiritual adversity.
Even the man Jesus, Who lived on earth as an individual being in order to accept the abundance of God within Himself, became one with Him, which was evidenced by His ascension, because the body had completely spiritualised itself and all substances were able to join the eternal Deity and thus there no longer existed two separate beings who were perfect but it was only one Deity, Which was love, wisdom and strength in supreme perfection. God the Father, God the Son and His Spirit, which permeates the whole of infinity and implements everything that is determined by His will. It is the eternal Deity’s Nature which is being characterised by the concepts of Father, Son and holy Spirit. Wisdom …. the Son …. comes forth from the Father of love, and the all-permeating strength implements what is decided by the Father and the Son. God is all-powerful and exceedingly wise and loving …. This concept is more understandable and solves the problem of the triune Deity in the simplest way, and only spiritually blind people are unable to grasp or acknowledge this uncomplicated solution because they are misled by spiritually blind leaders who are unenlightened and refuse to let themselves be taught ….

In the end, apostasy from the faith …. living faith …. reflecting on teachings ….
B.D. 4485 from November 13th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
Only a small number will remain faithful to Me until the end, for the adversity beforehand will still cause many people to fall away because they do not have a living faith and, in the time of decision, first have to realize how little they believe of what they have believed so far. And their faith is so weak because they have not strengthened it through works of love and because they have not yet penetrated the truth either …. because what they were supposed to believe did not correspond to the truth and therefore could not steel their faith either. They lack the realization of error because love did not produce the working of the spirit which would have formed their ability to recognize. And thus in the end there will be a frightening apostasy from faith, people will betray and deny Me, they will give up without a fight what should be defended as most precious possessions for the sake of despicable worldly reward, in order to create comforts for the body which only stays on earth for a short time. In the end it is such a sad state that the last day cannot come quickly enough to still save the few who want to be Mine and fight for their faith. For their fate is hard and difficult, and in view of the earthly wellbeing of those who betray Me it is also immeasurably difficult for them to remain faithful to Me; yet they stand in truth and thus also in the knowledge of the near end and their faith is profound and unshakeable. And thus they confidently await My coming in their adversity and I will not let their faith be shattered, I will fetch them home into the kingdom which is prepared for them as a paradisiacal abode until I bring them to earth again. For this reason it cannot be sufficiently pointed out to people the necessity of living faith, to the penetration of doctrines of faith and thinking about them in order to receive clarification about ambiguities, and people’s attention must be drawn to misguided teachings which will inevitably cause them to fail when a decision is demanded of them. And therefore I constantly instruct My servants on earth from above and present the danger of misguided teachings to them, I acquaint them with such so that they will fight against them where the opportunity is offered. For the fight against faith is inevitable because a separation is necessary and a confession before the world for Me and My name. But those who belong to an ecclesiastical community should not feel safe if they are not true followers of My church …. the community of believers who stand in the living faith …. For this is decisive as to whether people profess Me and remain faithful to Me until the end …. The living faith demands loving activity, otherwise it will remain a dead faith which will not stand firm in the final battle on this earth ….
Amen

Pure gospel …. additional human work …. disciples' task ….
B.D. 4486 from November 14th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
You will always be able to recognize My emissaries if you are seriously willing to examine. Then you must always keep My teaching of love in mind and use it as a yardstick to determine whether what My servants offer corresponds to this teaching. But you must never take offence at the fact that My servants on earth do not teach or stand up for what people have added, that they do not stand up for customs and traditions which are merely the work of men and that they condemn the latter and fight them as harmful for the attainment of maturity of soul. My servants shall bring you the pure gospel as I taught it at the time of My life on earth and as it no longer exists on this earth. They are to purge the gospel of additional human work, and they can also do this because they only convey to people what has reached them through the working of the spirit from above. This gospel, My teaching of love, will never be able to be objected to or declared erroneous by you in that form it is handed to you now, and therefore you should already respect My servants and listen to them in the knowledge that you will only receive a good gift from them. And if you are of good will you must then admit it yourselves that the deviations only extend to what I don’t value, indeed, that they even oppose My will. I truly know best what hinders your ascent and want to remove the obstacles from you, I want you to find the path upwards more easily, to Me and thus to the aim, to eternal life …. Therefore I send you My messengers to instruct you and draw your attention to everything that is a danger for the soul. And if I were to send you no-one, how would you then arrive at the truth if it is no longer properly offered to you on earth? Awaken the spirit within you so that I will instruct you directly and it will tell you the same as I let My servants tell you, because you yourselves do not awaken the spirit within you. And gladly and without hesitation give up what is not in connection with My divine teaching of love, which you can recognize as human work by the fact that the disregard or non-observance of teachings or commandments causes no harm to anyone except perhaps the organization which has established these teachings or commandments. I only preached love to people and warned against every violation of love which will always cause harm to the fellow human being or even violate the law of order given by Me. And this commandment of love you shall fulfil …. My servants on earth bring you the same teaching, pure and unadulterated, as they received it from Me and as I Myself taught them on earth. And therefore listen to them and examine them if you are undecided, and with good will you will have to recognize them as My emissaries, for My teaching of love speaks for itself. And the fact that I fight against all human works, that I instruct My servants to take action against them, is truly necessary because I know the effect of human works when the time of the battle of faith begins and I want to protect you humans from becoming weak and falling away from Me, and therefore I already purify the teaching beforehand, because only the pure truth gives you strength and faith to endure until the end ….
Amen

Spiritual seeing ….
B.D. 4487 from November 15th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
The state of conscious seeing occurs when the soul is receptive to light through extraordinary purification which has taken place through love or suffering. Then the soul is so spiritualized that it can gain insight into the spiritual kingdom, that it can enter into contact with figures of light which it is able to recognize, thus it is in a clairvoyant state. People can reach this degree of maturity without consciously striving for it, i.e. they can be chosen for the sake of their fellow human beings in order to render them a service. For a short time they are in direct contact with beings of light for whom the heart longs, and these beings of light will also comply with the heart’s desire and incline towards the earthly children because they are filled with profound love for them and use every opportunity to express this love. They share love according to God’s will, and since they are full of light and strength themselves they can also radiate it in order to make people happy …. Spiritual seeing is therefore the truthful explanation for appearances of such a kind that they are only seen by one person, whereas fellow human beings cannot make these perceptions. It is therefore neither self-deception nor fraud, but only proof of the ability of a purified soul to gain insight into the spiritual kingdom. Likewise, such a soul is also able to sense natural forces inherent in the earth and to have them found through the clairvoyant gift. This is a sign of extremely deep sensitivity, a sensitivity which the imperfect human being does not possess, which has developed through physical suffering and is expressed in such a way that the body in the clairvoyant state is attracted by these forces and now, as if under compulsion, gives these forces the opportunity to unfold, so that to a certain extent such a person only opens the valve so that fellow human beings can come to benefit from such forces, if it is God’s will. Thus the light phenomena and miraculous powers of earth are connected insofar as a purified soul is led by the beings of light to a place where the body feels the powers through its excessive sensitivity, and that the soul is able to see spiritually there, that the spiritual eye is opened to it and the human being then reports in a regressed state mixed with earthly impressions, which is now coloured according to the upbringing, the surroundings and the knowledge which was supplied to him from outside. The world, i.e. people who have no knowledge of it, will doubt or find no correct explanation, yet such processes are understandable to the spiritually awakened person and he will be able to differentiate between what is truth and what is humanly distorted, yet there are only a few who are able to give correct clarification about the fact that the soul is able to see things which are concealed from fellow human beings and that the bearers of these souls are to be believed ….

Heaven and hell ….
B.D. 4488 from November 17th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
I will not let anyone who gives himself to Me as My Own fall ever again. But anyone who remains in opposition to Me is in great danger of losing the strength of My love completely and becoming hardened in his fundamental substance, an extremely agonising condition which I would like to prevent. This truth, which has not been concealed from humanity from the start, resulted in the concept of ‘heaven and hell’, of a blissful and a wretched condition, which in people’s imagination is a limited space, until ultimately the real truth …. the condition …. became less important in their imagination and only the place remained, visualised by fantasy in every conceivable way. This gave way to many misguided thoughts so that the truth is now completely distorted and the human being no longer has any knowledge of what heaven and hell really mean.
Life and death are heaven and hell …. Busy, joyful activity in the most brightly radiating light is life …. Weakness, helplessness and deepest darkness are death …. And every condition can continually increase in both directions until the final aim, blissful union with Me or deepest descent, infinite distance from Me, has been reached …. Inconceivable is the bliss of the former, inconceivable is also the torment and suffering of the condemned, who languish for eternities and have no strength for redemption. It is these souls you should consider ….
It is a misguided teaching that there is no salvation from hell, that these souls are eternally condemned by Me …. It is not I Who condemns them but they themselves who have chosen damnation, not I Who pushed them into the abyss, but they themselves aimed towards the deepest point. However, My love leaves nothing so far away forever and therefore there is even salvation from hell, since I died on the cross for these beings too and accepted their guilt, because My love is greater than My wrath, than My justice. Even hell will have to let go of its last victims, i.e. even the hardest matter will be disintegrated one day, freeing the spirits within for the purpose of ascending to life …. Because hell, as you humans imagine, does not consist of an eternally blazing source of fire, it is not a place which contains the condemned. Hell is an indescribably agonizing condition, a condition which starts on earth when people do not acknowledge Me, hence they disassociate themselves from Me and remain without the strength of My love. They certainly continue to live their physical life without Me and as yet do not feel the weak condition, which their distance from Me entails, as torment, but as soon as their bodily life is over the agony starts: the consciousness to be completely without strength and yet to exist ….
It is still possible at first to let go of the resistance if the soul listens to the advice of knowing beings, but these opportunities are rarely valued and the soul descends ever deeper, the distance to Me gets ever greater and the weakness increases until the final hardening takes place …. the new banishment into most solid matter …. Then an infinitely long developmental period will have passed unsuccessfully for the spiritual substance which was once bound in matter and then set free as a human being in order to voluntarily strive for shedding every physical restraint. That it has failed is his free will because I truly do not withhold direct admonishments and warnings. But hell has a far greater attraction than heaven …. and the human being strives with utmost zeal towards matter again which the soul had long overcome. And therefore it is also his fate …. matter will once again be the shell for the spiritual substance which had failed its final test of will.
Hell has opened its gates wide, and countless souls will enter the darkness voluntarily …. Hell will triumph, i.e. its prince will have, as far as numbers are concerned, great success, but I will extort all these souls from him by placing them into the new creation again, and at the same time remove My adversary’s every power over these beings by banishing him into the center of earth …. that is, he will be given the hardest cover as a constraint, which he will be unable to leave again until the will of humans gives him power once more, by people desiring material goods and increasingly distancing themselves from Me again. Then he will fight for the souls again and this contest will be permitted so that the souls can prove themselves by choosing between Me and him, because without the right decision no person can achieve blissfulness ….
Amen

Originate of matter …. What is matter? ….
B.D. 4489 from November 18th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
There is a law according to which all matter approaches dissolution as soon as its substances have become useless, i.e. have lost their binding power, so to speak. It then disintegrates into itself and can also only experience a new formation in its remaining components together with other matter. The process of the dissolution of matter always and constantly takes place in the universe, where earthly material creations exist, but as also matter constantly arises anew, thus substances are joined together again and again using dissolved matter. The human being can certainly examine matter itself for its components but he cannot determine the origin and the original components of what his eye sees …. He only sees the perpetual becoming and passing away and the emergence of new creations again, but he does not know what was originally if it is not made known to him through his spirit. For matter is a new creation, it is not eternal. It exists, it is visible to the human eye and yet it is fundamentally spiritual, that is, it is power that cannot be seen with the bodily eye. It is an emanation of God, which has become form through His will …. This act is incomprehensible and will remain so …. it is: power moving away from God, which strengthens itself until it hardens the further it moves away from God …. So this power is animated with will, only this will is bound if it strives away from God …. It is spiritual which carries the God-opposing will within itself, whereas the spiritual, God’s emanation of strength, which remains in His will, also stays close to Him and results in creations of light, thus it stimulates God’s creative will to form structures of the most glorious kind, which, however, are constantly capable of change, yet they are imperishable and delight beings which, being completely in accordance with God’s will, receive His emanation of strength for equally creative activity. Hence, what completely corresponds to God’s will is not material, what is materially visible carries the God-opposing will in itself to varying degrees and has therefore become spiritual form, strength emanating from God which does not remain as it originates from God when it distances itself from God.
However, power that distances itself from God diminishes in its effectiveness, matter appears without life, it is in a state of death, of powerlessness and thus the resulting inactivity …. without life, which means uninterrupted activity. If the spiritual were completely insentient then the state of powerlessness would not be felt by the spiritual, but because the spiritual has known the state of freedom before as a free spirit close to God …. or also as a human being in the last stage of development on this earth-creation …. and is fully aware of its existence, it feels the powerless state as agony, which can now certainly contribute to giving up resistance against God, which is recognizable through a minimal beginning activity which results in a soon change of hard matter ….
(19.11.1948) The more life a work of creation betrays, the smaller the distance from God has become and the more the spiritual takes on its original nature, it becomes strength and light again the closer it comes to God, until it is finally intimately merged with God again. Matter is therefore power that has gone out from God, which has condensed and finally hardened the further away it is from God. Matter in itself is transient because it can dissolve again into its original state, but strength is imperishable, it remains in existence because it is an emanation of God which can certainly change in form but never completely pass away. But the change of matter is likewise law, it cannot remain eternally as it appears because it always comes into contact with that strength from God, which is still effective as strength, and this effectiveness is expressed precisely as a change of matter. The degree to which the strength from God affects matter depends on the resistance of the spiritual which this matter harbours. But even the strongest resistance against God will be broken one day, which is why from time to time violent dissolutions take place in creation which destroy all matter and let it arise again in another form, because the strength from God is constantly active and also wants to cause the spiritual that has emerged from it to be supremely active, because activity alone is blissful, because it alone is life ….

Worker in the vineyard of the lord ….
B.D. 4490 from November 20th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
The will to work for Me is enough to make you capable of doing so. Which office is then assigned to the individual depends on the strength of will and the perseverance he shows in working for My kingdom. But he will always be given the opportunity to penetrate the truth, it will always be made accessible to him from some side, and mostly in a completely natural way, through conversations, through hearing or reading My word and through his own thoughts; thus, if he speaks for Me and My kingdom, he will also represent the truth because it appears acceptable to him, even if it was offered to him from outside, because his spirit is already effective in him through his will to be active for Me. He then makes himself a servant and will also render his services to Me in the right way. But the condition is that his will is serious …. that he deeply feels the desire in his heart to work for Me, that he does not just speak nice words and please himself and that he therefore often secretly converses with Me and thus appeals for My approval and also finds it. He has to be serious, then he can always be certain of My blessing and My help. Every person can render services to Me, for My vineyard is vast and I need many labourers in it in view of the approaching end, where every willing servant will have to perform increased work in order to be successful. And I am truly a just lord, I reward everyone according to merit, for I also know that the work will be difficult in the end but with My help it will also be achievable. Every labourer in My vineyard has spiritual advisors at his side who advise and help him where necessary. But the main work consists of talking to people about spiritual things, because this stimulates their thinking and only in this way can fellow human beings be prompted to live an inner life, thus to take a stand on the spiritual. And they should always and constantly mention love, for only love can cause spiritual progress, only through love is upward development possible, and only a life of love is like a field which bears good fruit. Anyone who voluntarily undertakes this work for My kingdom can also always count on My support, spiritually as well as earthly, for I gladly accept him into My service, and this also means complete care for his physical and spiritual well-being. I will maintain him and always give him what he needs for his office on earth, which will be assigned to him according to his maturity but will always find My full approval if he wants to be active for Me and My kingdom. For I bless all who serve Me, and especially in the last time before the end ….
Amen

"Forerunners you shall be to Me on earth …."
B.D. 4491 from November 20th 1948, taken from Book No. 52
You shall be forerunners for Me on earth, I have hired you for this purpose, because people have to speak to people so that they open the door of their heart to Me and grant Me entrance. For they cannot hear Me Myself as long as they have not removed everything from the chambers of their hearts which prevents My entry. Until then they will not hear My voice either. Yet they have to experience what I have to say to them, otherwise they will not make any effort to prepare their heart for My dwelling. Therefore I need you to enter them before Me, to call out to them: The lord comes and wants to enter you …. They can hear your call but whether they heed it is up to them. But if they have listened to you, they also know that I follow and knock at their door, and blessed are those who let Me in …. blessed are those who have prepared themselves for My coming, to whom your words gave cause to work on themselves. I speak to all who have heard the announcement through your mouth, and your work opens many a door of the heart to Me that would otherwise remain closed. You shall be forerunners for Me on earth …. you shall go before Me and listen to what I Myself say to you, so that you will then proclaim My word and speak in My name. And the more eagerly you are active in My name the more urgently My word will affect people, the doors will open of their own accord and hearts will wait for the coming of the lord, Whom His servant has announced, for a good speaker is capable of much …. But in order for you to be good speakers I will take possession of you Myself and speak through you, unrecognized by those whom you should make receptive for My coming, yet recognized by you because you serve Me with love, because I can already work in your hearts through your voluntary devotion to Me. And thus your ministry will not be too difficult, you will be guided by Me and led to all gates where I want to enter, and you will always speak in a way which is appropriate for the individual …. Only you must not tire and become lukewarm in your work for Me …. And therefore you yourselves must often grant Me entrance into your hearts by also letting Me speak to you, by desiring to hear Me Myself and thus longing to be fed by Me, to take supper with Me as I have promised you …. “behold, I stand at the door and knock; whoever opens to Me, I will come in and take supper with him ….” Open the door to Me, all of you, and let Me enter in, pave the way for Me, whoever you want to work for Me, and thus invite all guests to the supper, so that they may be strengthened and receive nourishment for their souls from My hand, for only then can they become blessed when I Myself feed them with the bread of life ….
Amen
