Awaken to new life …. Try to kindle the flame of love in you, constantly provide it with new nourishment and thereby ignite your love for God, which will make you eternally happy. Then you will be assured of eternal life, a state of abundant strength and light in unlimited freedom. Then you will be able to do whatever you want, you will have conquered death, for all lack of strength, all weakness will fall away from you and you will live and be blissfully happy. Yet this can only be accomplished by love and love cannot be given to you, you must kindle it in yourselves. You must help where help is needed and, animated by the feeling of inner happiness, constantly accomplish new deeds of love, then you will always keep the fire within you burning, you will feed it and be constantly active with unselfish love. Only the pleasure of giving spurs you into renewed kind-hearted activity, and you will experience this when you look into a needy fellow human being’s eyes after you have helped him. This reward is far nicer than material payment, for it is reciprocated love which shines forth from these eyes. Then you will have kindled love in your fellow human being’s heart again, a tiny spark will have been ignited by you and once again the flame of love will spread and communicate itself to other people. Only a united activity of love can redeem the human race from the state of spiritual hardship it finds itself in. Only loving activity results in light and grace and leads you to God, the eternal Love Himself. However, the closer it gets to the end the more love will grow cold amongst people, since they only live for their own ends and have no heart for the suffering of their fellow human beings. The distance to God will therefore become ever more obvious, the gulf between people and God will have almost become unbridgeable, the darkness in people’s hearts impenetrable, for the light of love will not be able to shine forth and therefore not provide illumination, and the One Who would be able to help is not called upon, because He is not acknowledged …. Jesus Christ, the divine Redeemer, will be unable to distribute the blessings of His act of Salvation, He will not be approached for them because people don’t believe in Him. And this is the worst situation, for then they will lack all strength and support without which, however, they cannot become happy. People no longer believe what they are advised to believe, and if they don’t acknowledge the divine Redeemer they will not call upon Him either, consequently they are spiritually unenlightened and therefore suffer profound hardship. They are already in a state of death and could certainly be delivered from it yet never without love, never without divine grace, but the human will must always profess to it first. Try to awaken yourselves to life …. you are able to do so if only you wanted it …. Practise unselfish neighbourly love and you will find it easy to acknowledge Jesus Christ as the Redeemer of the world and as the Son of God, for then the spirit within you will enlighten you, so that you will be able to believe because you live a life of love. Awaken to new life, for the hour is close at hand when it will be decided as to whether the soul has chosen life or death. Make use of every opportunity to actively practise neighbourly love, and you will experience the beneficial feeling that you are infused by new life …. Then you will have conquered death and need not fear the final end, for then you will be living in light and truth, and you will live eternally ….

Amen

Everything you do for Me and My kingdom is spiritual work which I bless by giving your soul strength to develop upwards. Every work for Me is a step closer to Me, even though you are not aware of it, yet you are pushed towards the spiritual kingdom as if by invisible force, and this is My love which draws you. You can never sink into darkness because you have seen the light, you have recognized Me as the original source of light and strength, you advance in realization and therefore can never turn away from Me. Every lord who needs a servant also thanks him for his help, and My gratitude to everyone who is active for Me and My kingdom always consists of the fact that I increase his spiritual wealth, that I provide him with a treasure which will make him immeasurably happy on earth already and even more so one day in eternity. And My servants shall always have the certainty that they will be extremely well provided for by Me so that they will not need to worry themselves about what they need for life on earth. Spiritually and earthly I look after them, and spiritually and earthly they can therefore be without worry, for a faithful servant no longer needs to look after himself but he shall leave all care to the father of the house. Thus you will always be guided in order to be able to carry out your spiritual work, for I Myself assign the work to you and also lead the people to you to whom you are to proclaim the kingdom of God, to whom you are to convey My teaching of love with the indication of My direct working on you which enables you to work for Me and My kingdom. And you will feel to whom you should speak without reservation, just as a voice will warn you if people are hostile towards you and your work would be unsuccessful. I Myself instruct you to speak on My behalf and therefore always act according to your feelings through which My will is expressed. If you are subject to Me as faithful servants you will also always recognize My will, and you will only create and work for Me. Yet your earthly activity is also part of your ministry to spread My gospel, for I know very well whose sphere of activity is suitable for a blessed spiritual activity. Therefore, every earthly activity will also bring you blessings if you are willing to serve Me first, if you therefore don’t forget Me above your earthly work. But a faithful servant relies on his master and does not worry, and everything will work out for him ….

Amen

Be patient …. Many a soul takes its path through life in secret opposition to Me but does not openly express its rejection and therefore first has to be urged to make an open decision. But love is and remains the only path to realization, and therefore no soul can find its way to Me which does not have love within itself. And thus you need not be surprised if a person lacks understanding for the divine word who is not permeated by love for Me and his neighbour, because he also lacks wisdom, the knowledge about the strength of love, which increases ever more the less the human being is a slave to matter.

(25.10.1950) I certainly often approach people to urge them onto the path of love, yet I respect free will at all times, and you should do the same …. always show love to each other but leave your fellow human being free to decide, for often the will to convince is precisely what determines him to reject. Anyone who has no inner connection with Me or with the spiritual kingdom through good actions or good thoughts will never be able to hear the voice from there either. For good is only that which is done completely selflessly, where no calculation or earthly advantage is striven for. The goodness of the heart inevitably leads to Me and also recognizes the father’s voice, but where the intellect only examines, the judgement is not very satisfactory. Nevertheless, I say again and again: Be patient with your fellow human beings whom you cannot convince of My word. So much escapes them that you have to show them love again and again, that you should bear their faults and weaknesses with forbearance …. But persevere on your path …. Through love you gain much strength, and although strength cannot be transferred to a fellow human being at will it nevertheless enables you to do unusual deeds spiritually and earthly. And thus you must influence those by your example who are not yet as far advanced as you, and you will achieve much. Even where you are hindered in the execution of your will, your will will be valued by Me and earn you spiritual progress. But your destiny is predetermined for all of you, and truly, you can mature on earth if you don’t fail of will yourselves. And precisely where you overcome resistance you will mature most quickly and one day sing praise and thanks to Me for the many opportunities I have offered you for the purpose of maturing. The will towards Me alone is decisive for the soul’s degree of maturity it achieves on earth. And this will is so often tempted because the adversary does not slacken in his effort to wrest souls from Me which have already decided in favour of Me. But where the will is good, victory will also not fail to come ….

Amen

Heartfelt love unites the spiritual beings in the kingdom of the beyond who no longer dwell in darkness, and therefore they also work with united strength as soon as they want to accomplish something for which their own strength is insufficient; that is, they can certainly already be recipients of strength in the beyond but still to a limited extent as long as they are not yet perfected, that is, beings of light which are in direct contact with God. Nevertheless, they can already be active according to their reception of strength. But if they work in unity then everything they want is possible for them, yet their will is always equal to God’s will. The common love of the spiritual beings mostly extends to the souls on earth and in the spiritual kingdom which still dwell in darkness. They seek to bring help to them, and where they do not succeed on their own they unite for joint work and also have great success.

(10/28/1950) All their efforts aim to bring light to the beings still in darkness, thus to enlighten them about their present and future state, but they can only do this in the form of mental transmissions. It is often difficult to exert mental influence on souls, especially those still on earth, because they turn more towards earthly life and also believe little in a continuation of the soul as well as in beings which are in the spiritual kingdom and want to have contact with people on earth. Then the strength of a loving soul is often not enough and it seeks help from equally mature friends in the kingdom of light. It is a process of extraordinary importance to transfer thought currents to the human being without forcing the will …. it is an application of strength which is not allowed to break any resistance. And that is why these thought waves play around the human being’s soul again and again and seek to gain entrance into the human heart, which emotionally turns towards such currents once it has opened itself. The opening of the heart is usually a consequence of miserable situations in life, of sorrow and suffering and disappointments of all kinds …. This is why people’s fate in life is often a chain of such sorrowful events, all of which are only intended to open the heart voluntarily when it is touched by currents from the kingdom of light, so that it will then be receptive for the thought currents imparted to it by the beings of light as an effect of love. This is why these beings often intervene in life’s fate in a decisive way, yet not according to their own will but according to God’s will, Who has entrusted people to them as His charges and thus also gives them the authority to influence them in such a way that their spiritual development is successful. And the light beings’ work on the imperfect souls in the beyond is just the same, they have to be considered according to their respective state and their course of development in the beyond is also incumbent on guardian spirits who are in knowledge and therefore also see every possibility which could bring help to the souls of darkness. The process of development in the beyond can go further upwards, but it can also go backwards, because even then the being’s will is still free. Thus the will can only be influenced completely without constraint, which can only be judged by a being of light and which is incumbent upon it according to God’s will. But just as people on earth often unite in their work against God by adopting each other’s views and also representing them to their fellow human beings, so united activity must also take place in the spiritual kingdom so that the human being’s will on earth remains free and yet it is possible for it to change. Consequently, it is a perpetual battle of light against darkness which, however, is not fought with hostility and the will to destroy, as it is on earth, but is only waged with spiritual weapons by the beings of light struggling for people’s hearts, so that they voluntarily submit to their influence, so that they allow themselves to be guided in their thoughts and actions, so that they turn their thoughts away from the earthly world and towards the spiritual kingdom in which they shall one day lead the right life which will make them eternally blissful ….

Amen

Every service of love has the effect of receiving strength …. If you humans would take this to heart there would be no weakness whatsoever for you, neither in faith nor in knowledge, and your life would be easy. You would receive back a thousand fold what you pray for out of love, and therefore you would not have to fear any earthly worries …. But what is the situation in the world? Adversity and misery, unbelief and ignorance characterize people’s state, and all this points to the end …. Love has grown cold among people …. Hence they also lack strength, which is the result of the working of love. It is a weak humanity which passes away in spiritual darkness. Love has grown cold amongst people …. You cannot measure how serious this is for their souls, for they thereby prove their remoteness from God, because closeness to God inevitably means receiving strength, but closeness to God is only assured through loving activity. But what do you humans want to achieve if you are far from God …. Then every endeavour will only lead to the abyss, no matter how eagerly you create and work; for without God you are enslaved by the one who is His adversary and to whom alone you owe your wretched state. God alone is your salvation, if you do not seek Him you will be lost for eternity. God alone is strength and power and glory, and in His nearness you will live in bliss. But if you are far from Him, if your spirit is darkened, if you walk blindly and powerlessly on earth, and if you enter the spiritual kingdom blindly and powerlessly, your wretched state will increase due to your guilt. Love alone sets you free, love alone brings you closer to God, love imparts strength and light to you, love redeems you. Overcome yourselves, you who are still strongly stuck in selfish love, turn to your fellow human being and have open eyes for his suffering; help him, be constantly active in unselfish love. Then you will increase in strength and light, you will strive towards God Who reveals Himself to you through your activity of love, to Whom you unite through your activity of love so that He works with and in you. Love has grown cold among people …. Take care that you do not belong to those for whom there is no salvation anymore because they have left God. Seek to secure His nearness through loving activity and make sure that your strength increases, that you believe firmly and steadfastly and let your faith come alive through love. Then the earthly world will no longer burden you, you will live in constant striving for the spiritual kingdom, you will feel God’s presence and be full of love and strength, and since you now live in and with God you will succeed in everything, your spiritual as well as your earthly work will be blessed …. Do not let love grow cold, so that you will not belong to those who have to fear the near end, who are far from God and become a slave to the one who is His adversary ….

Amen

The end will come irrevocably and with it the last judgment …. For in My wisdom I recognized people’s will from eternity and their behaviour which corresponds to this will but which does not show any upward striving. My law of eternity, however, demands a constant upward development, and all events on earth and in the entire universe are adapted to this law. If a constant infringement of My law of order is recognizable, then this will have the effect of restoring the old order, but in such a way that everything contrary to the law will pass away, thus also material creations which are not used according to the eternal order will dissolve in order to be incorporated into the order again in a different form. Thus people who have stepped out of order are also placed into the state which corresponds to My eternal order again, i.e. the spiritual substance in the human being takes on the external form which corresponds to its degree of maturity; thus it loses its existence as a human being and is banished again into an external form which had long since been overcome …. It is now undoubtedly certain that the human being completely misjudges his purpose of existence, that he only pays attention to his earthly life and no longer submits to My primal law of eternity, the law of love. The earth, which is only meant to serve as a maturing station for the spiritual substance, completely fails in its purpose and therefore can no longer continue to exist in its old form, because then it will move entirely contrary to law in the universe, in which all creations have their destiny assigned by Me and also comply with it. For the earth will now only be used to develop backwards, and thus its inhabitants will, so to speak, play into My adversary’s hands. Only the will of the latter is still observed on earth, while My will remains unheeded or is totally disregarded. If people would turn, if they would make an effort to learn the truth and then turn to Me with the request for help to ascend, I would truly not destroy the earth but let people experience My greater than great love and mercy, I would neither let an end nor a last judgment come, for a good will and serious striving towards Me could achieve everything, even the lifting of an act which has been intended by Me since eternity. I would do it and only ever help you humans to reach the aim. But this will is no longer to be found with people, and therefore My plan of eternity has to come to pass, My announcements through seers and prophets, who foresaw the end, have to be fulfilled, precisely because they also foresaw where people are heading. And only My overwhelming patience has still saved the earth from this fate, because I still want to give all those the opportunity for a change of will whose hearts I recognize and to whom I want to be merciful. But the number of them will become smaller and smaller, and not long after that only two camps will be clearly recognizable, and the flock of My own will be so small that the end can already be recognized, for if only devils still animate the world it will have completely left its lawful order, just like the people on it, and there can only be an end to that which is visible to people as earthly creation, just as people themselves must be destroyed who misused their last maturing station and thus sinned again against the fundamental law of eternal order, against love …. This announcement will irrevocably come to pass, for people will no longer be of better will, they constantly strive downwards and also try to drag down everything turned towards Me. But I will prevent this, for I will let the earth arise anew again and people on it will live in order again, which is and remains the supreme law from eternity; they will live in love again and be My children in truth ….

Amen

The right path to truth is rarely taken, yet many believe they are on it and yet walk close to it or further away from it. But since I Myself am the way, the truth and the life, everyone must follow Me, then he will also be on the right path, he will stand in the truth and recognize everything that is error or lie. There is only one path, and this path is I Myself …. And therefore you humans must let yourselves be taught by Me and, in order to hear My voice, take the same path I took on earth, the path of love, which directly connects you with Me and thus also with the truth, since I am the eternal truth Myself. And thus anyone who lives in love can also feel instructed by Me if he asks spiritual questions, if he seeks the truth. I am the way, the truth and the life …. And anyone to whom I can be present as a result of active neighbourly love will not be able to think otherwise than right because he is filled by My spirit, which only knows and conveys the pure truth ….

Thus I Myself give the truth to people through My spirit. It must not be misjudged that only I, the original source of truth, allow it to flow to you directly or indirectly, which is why anything which does not demonstrably come from Me can be rejected as deviating from the truth by those who seriously examine it. But a direct or indirect receipt of truth takes place when a person’s knowledge is increased without having been brought to him from outside or when he passes this knowledge on to his fellow human beings. All knowledge which was not gained scholastically but was, as it were, born in a person’s heart is due to the working of the spirit and thus a revelation on My part which can only be purest truth. Anyone who receives this spiritual knowledge again, which was directly conveyed to a person, can and will only accept it if he also allows My spirit to work in him, otherwise it would appear incomprehensible and unacceptable to him, thus it would not signify truth for him. My spirit must be able to work in the human being, therefore I Myself am the path which leads to truth. And anyone who shapes himself into love, that is, who unites with Me through loving activity, will also make contact with My spirit of eternity and therefore also recognize pure truth as such. Hence love, which I exemplified to you on earth and which can therefore be called the path to truth again, cannot be excluded either. But the truth will always be the same, and all those who are instructed by Me in the truth, in whom My spirit can work, will call concordant knowledge their own, so that different schools of thought will never arise where only one truth is advocated …. For as soon as the knowledge deviates from each other the intellect alone has been active and has made the working of My spirit impossible in one or the other. What has been fathomed intellectually is to be rejected as contradicting the truth, but what is conveyed to the human being by the heart is spiritual working and the only truth. And thus you humans always have a sign of truth …. if only you pay attention to the source from which knowledge springs …. Remember that I am the way, the truth and the life, that pure truth can therefore only come through Me and from Me and that it will always be received by the one who lives and works in and with Me because he lives in love ….

Amen

The greatest danger for a human being is spiritual coercion which prevents the recognition and free decision of his will’s direction. Every person is an individual being that has to perfect itself and, therefore, everyone is responsible for his own way of life on which depends the attainment of the degree of perfection. Hence everyone has to make a free decision and testify to Me of his will. I Am demanding this testimony and do not agree that one person should tell his fellow human beings how they must think, will or act. The freedom of will must not be violated, but it is violated when the objective of a person’s will is determined by law and he is required either by promises or threats to move only in a particular direction …. I will never accept such coercion although I will not openly oppose it so as not to use coercion Myself.

The human being is a thinking individual who received the ability of free will and thought from Me purely for the purpose of making a decision during the last stage of his spiritual development on earth, in accordance with which he will then be rewarded in eternity. It is indeed good and in accordance with My will when a person informs his fellow human beings of the consequences of using their will in a righteous or wrong way. It is also My will when all manner of clarification is given concerning his relationship with his Creator. However, a good instruction concerning the divine doctrine of love and the importance of practicing unselfish love for one’s fellow human being is quite sufficient. But it should all be done without coercion …. The human being should be educated but never forced into accepting a doctrine because he should use his own judgment and inclination in directing his will.

I gave the human being free will but if you take it away from him you will be using your own will wrongly, although you will believe that you work for Me on My behalf. I never gave My disciples the task to spread My teaching by way of religious coercion because an enforced faith would not benefit the soul’s higher development. I only ever require people to believe in Me as a supremely perfect Being, I only ever require their belief in My omnipotence, wisdom and love and its strength …. For if you believe in this you will experience the strength of love yourselves and will automatically recognise everything else you need to believe, because then you will be truthfully taught by My spirit within yourselves. However, enforced faith will not lead you to perfection. Enforced faith will rarely come alive, and I cannot look upon enforced faith as a decision of free will because your will has not yet become active, instead you will have acknowledged a school of thought as the result of your education without having properly evaluated it as to its worth or worthlessness.

I want you to believe that you can only attain beatitude through love …. but you have to acquire this belief yourselves; you can certainly accept the teaching of it but then you will first have to practise love in order to gain the certainty that love is spiritual strength, and only this inner certainty is assured faith which is life-giving because it was voluntarily gained. All coercion is a sign of imperfection because it violates the freedom which originally was the spiritual being’s characteristic and which it has to regain in order to become blessed. How can coercive measures which deprive people of spiritual freedom be considered to be in accordance with My will …. if a person is virtually duty-bound to believe something which, as far as I Am concerned, needs absolutely free deliberation and acceptance?

As supreme Lawgiver I gave people no other commandment than that of love, which also comprises the Ten Commandments of Moses, but which only will be fulfilled if love is voluntarily practised, otherwise it would bear witness against Myself or it would question the human being’s free will. However, people presume that they can establish laws without having the authority to do so. Thus they infringe upon the person’s free will …. Every law is coercion, and every kind of coercion is contrary to My will. As soon as a person no longer has freedom of thought, as soon as he is forced to believe in a doctrine, his earthly test of volition comes to an end, for he has to make his own decision and not an enforced one. And every dogmatic doctrine is coercion, irrespective of whether it is true or not.

Every dogma is a violation of free will …. which will not be free at the time of a spiritual decision, since the decision has already been dictated to him and can only be bypassed by committing a sin. I gave every human being the right of free choice; I merely require that he should seriously consider what he is asked to believe. If, in spite of serious deliberation, he cannot accept it with full conviction, I will not regard it as a sin; however, he will commit a sin if he affirms a doctrine with his lips without having asked his heart. Every person is responsible for himself, and it is presumptuous when one person intends to determine the faith of thousands with an instruction which must always be considered a dogmatic doctrine.

Anything that violates a human being’s freedom of will can never find My approval, since not even I Myself determine people’s acceptance of truth if their own will does not want it. I will certainly continue to teach people and transmit the pure truth to them, but everyone is at liberty to accept or reject it. And thus you should simply teach your fellow human beings with love but allow them spiritual freedom for their decision, because an enforced faith has no merit before Me ….

Amen

You children of this earth are My problem children, for you go your own way and don’t feel drawn to the Father nor listen to the Father’s voice which lovingly wants to regain you. The path you take leads far away from the goal, and thus I worry about you because I know where this path is leading to. Yet as My children you also have free will or you could not be My children. Free will is part of the state of perfection which you initially enjoyed, therefore I cannot forcibly bring you back to Me but only ever give you love which, once it touches your heart, will drive you back to Me.

But how often do you humans prolong your time of separation from Me yourselves …. And how often do you even exceed your appointed redemption period …. And then you once again will have to expect an agonizing state which, however, is not imposed on you by My wrath but by My love so that you will attain the goal.

Once again you humans face a turning point, the end of a period of time which was granted to you for salvation. I get increasingly more concerned about you since the short time left to you could still be used to help redeem you, you can still be released from the oppressive constraint if you would want it yourselves, if you would commend yourselves to My guidance without resistance. The time of grace will expire soon, the result of your resistance will soon make itself known, and you will have to bear the consequences of having made your own way without listening to the Father’s voice. It clearly speaks to everyone, for I speak to you through all happenings, your whole earthly fate is the expression of My love; suffering, hardship and sorrow are Words of love from Me to you to remind you that you are My children who separated from the Father and should find their way back to Me again. And only something that inwardly stirs and discourages you drives you back to Me, with Whom you will find protection and help in every adversity ….

You have to come to Me yourselves, just as you separated from Me yourselves. And for this reason suffering and hardship will increase until the end, since they are the only means which can still result in success, since you don’t listen to My gentle words of love in your heart and since My affectionate persuasion remains ineffective.

You travelled a long way until you became human beings …. Don’t let this path have been travelled in vain, take advantage of your last available opportunities to make the decision in the state of free will with which you will become your Father’s true children again …. Don’t let your short remaining time pass by without changing your will, that is, without turning it in the direction where most faithful Fatherly love waits for you. Time flies and you are approaching a dreadful fate if you remain opposed and don’t find your way back to Me, for My plan has been predetermined since eternity …. A new period of Salvation will start because everything has to take the path of higher development, so that all of My love’s children will get the opportunity to come close to Me of their own free will …. to return to the Father’s house which they had once voluntarily abandoned ….

Amen

All human beings are My children and I take hold of all of them with the same love, because My love for My living creations can never stop and knows no exception. And yet, innumerable people are still so far away from Me that they no longer feel the strength of My love, nevertheless of their own free will because they turn away from Me and the rays of My love can only touch a receptive heart. Hence they are like children who have left the Father’s house, who moved to faraway places because they thought they could do without the Father’s love. I want to win these children back again because My love yearns for them and because I also know that, outside the Father’s house, they live in adversity and misery, since I know My children and their disastrous state which is their fate as long as they are separated from Me. I try to regain them and will invite their love until they are My Own again, until they are blissfully happy in the Father’s arms …. Nevertheless, an infinitely long time may pass by before I reach My goal; however, I Am forbearing and patient, and My love knows no bounds. What I don’t achieve soon I will achieve later, but sooner or later even the last child will have found its way back, if only after an endlessly long time. I will achieve My goal for certain; however, as long as they are distant from Me My living creations must still suffer indescribably and therefore I try to shorten their state of suffering by using every means to break down their obstinacy and by revealing Myself to them as the most loving Father …. but always bearing free will in mind, which they must keep as My true children in order to become perfect. They shall attain the childship to God and become akin to Me in everything, as true children they shall come into the Father’s inheritance and create and shape with Me in eternal happiness. Only on earth can the souls achieve the goal of maturing into My true children. They are set the highest and most glorious goal …. Yet, how little it is striven for by people to whom I, as Father, want to prepare the most glorious fate. In the past they became enslaved by My adversary and allowed themselves to be influenced by him, and this situation of bondage must first be severed by them before they can be accepted into the Father’s house, they must renounce this world which is his realm; that is, they should not desire the attractions and pleasures of this material world but must direct their will towards Me and, like lost children, yearn for paternal protection and paternal love. Then I will come to meet them in order to show them the way which leads them safely back to Me, back into the Father’s house. One day every soul will return to Me, yet My love tries to shorten the time of distance from Me, because it is a time without bliss, a time of spiritual darkness and of weakness. And since I love all My living creations I also approach all people so that they will learn to recognise their Father and submit to His will. But someone who nevertheless opposes Me will not be forced by Me. However, he prepares a burdensome fate for himself, he deprives himself of heavenly blissfulness, he forsakes precious treasures for the sake of transient earthly possessions …. and he will still remain separated from Me for an endless time and will thus be controlled by My adversary …. yet always because of his own fault ….

Amen

The demons circle around you and continually seek to disturb a connection which exists between the spiritual kingdom and the earth. And thus they seek to influence your will in order to cause a light to go out which shall brightly illuminate the path for you humans in the last time before the end. My messengers are often harassed by these dark beings because they hate and shun the light, because they cannot tolerate it in their darkness. But the beings of light protect you and do not allow you to succumb in the battle against the dark powers. It is a struggle of both powers for your soul as well as for the souls of those who have found the way to the source of life and want to feast on it. And both are trying to gain the upper hand …. It is the last time before the end …. And satan has great power …. But he cannot force people who love Me and strive towards Me. Yet he will always harass them and disturb their souls, and these are the temptations to which you, My labourers and servants on earth, are always exposed. Yet you should fear neither the temptations nor the tempter himself …. For My love protects all who are devoted to Me. And therefore you, too, should not allow yourselves to be confused and, without worry, continue to walk the path of truth, the path of light which leads to Me and which the adversary cannot obstruct despite cunning and force. For this path is My territory, and anyone who treads it is immune to all attacks of the enemy …. He cannot reach it because the bright light blinds him and his intrigue is always recognized if he tries to lure him away from the right path with cunning. Many demons surround you but they cannot harm you as long as you take refuge in Me in prayer, as long as you are devoted to Me in your heart and want to serve Me alone ….

Amen

In the hour of Christ’s crucifixion the great act of redemption of the spiritual from satan’s bondage took place. His power was broken, he lost control over the spiritual embodied as a human being, as soon as he wanted to be free from him. Through His crucifixion, through His blood, the man Jesus had redeemed the whole of humanity from the one who was My adversary and did not want to release the spiritual, which his will had brought into being by using My strength. Hence humanity was no longer in a hopeless state; it could detach itself from his power if it had the will to do so, because the man Jesus had paid the purchase price with His blood ….

With this explanation I want to make you humans understand that you are not hopelessly at satan’s mercy, that you can all liberate yourselves as soon as you acknowledge Jesus Christ as redeemer, Who sheltered My abundant strength of love within Himself which let Him become a divine being Which united with Me eternally. Satan no longer has the power to force a person’s will if he turns to the divine redeemer Jesus Christ himself, he can certainly tempt him in every way but never forcefully influence him, otherwise his power would still be unbroken. Death is overcome …. death is a state of complete powerlessness, a state of ruin and darkness …. Death is overcome because Jesus Christ Himself has conquered it, because He gives eternal life to the one who participates in His act of salvation, who is therefore willing to make use of the graces acquired by Jesus …. who wants Jesus to have died for him too, that He also shed His blood for him in order to redeem him. Satan certainly still has great power but only over people who have no faith in Jesus Christ, the divine redeemer. There his power is still unbroken until they also place themselves under the cross of Christ and ask Him for help against him. The love of the God-Man Jesus is without limits, otherwise He would not have become one with Me. And this love does not deny itself to anyone who comes to Him and asks for help. He stands up for battle as an adversary against satan if only the winning of a bound soul applies. And therefore every person’s earnest prayer for protection and help against him will be heard and satan will only have power over a person if he willingly hands himself over to him. You humans can therefore firmly believe that Jesus’ love is a thousand times stronger than satan’s power. And that His love applies to every bound being which only lifts its eyes to Him in its adversity. Satan certainly walks about like a roaring lion and seeks whom he devours …. But Jesus Christ as one with Me is also lord over him …. He is the Good Shepherd, Who guards His sheep from the enemy, and His sheep include all who are not against Him. He laid down His life for His sheep …. Therefore He will not let any of them fall into the clutches of the enemy if they confess Him in their hearts. For He has infinitely greater power because He has become one with Me and possesses all strength and power from Me. For He is My son Who, out of love, took humanity’s guilt upon Himself and sacrificed Himself to Me. And if you humans call upon Him for help against your enemy He will also hear you and snatch every soul from satan which wants to escape from him. Only your will has to be directed towards Him, Who redeemed the world through His crucifixion ….

Amen

Research and brooding will not bring you closer to the truth but the instructions from above will, which My love bestows upon all those who desire the truth for the sake of truth and not for the sake of earthly success. I can truly impart the truth to you, and I will also do so if it is desired, however, the person who pursues worldly interests with it will never be able to deem himself in possession of the truth, which is certainly also understandable that I don’t want to strengthen My adversary’s power, who hides behind the world and its incentives and drives many a person to research and brood in order to win him over for the world, thus to alienate him from Me. Truth is and remains a divine share, and anyone who walks in truth is close to Me, just as conversely a person who has distanced himself from Me due to his excessive inclination towards matter can never stand in truth, because I and truth are inseparable. And therefore let it be said to you that the human being cannot penetrate areas which lie outside of earth by virtue of his intellect, that intellectual research will therefore not yield a truthful result and that pure truth can only be gained through the working of the spirit in the human being. And even if this deviates from the results of science it guarantees its authenticity because it is conveyed by Me Myself to people who allow My spirit to work in them. But again, it is only acceptable to such people, thus the recognition of truth presupposes the working of the spirit in the human being again, which is why it is not advizable to want to impart the knowledge of things gained through the spirit, which cannot be proven, to people who are still completely unawakened in spirit, for they don’t grasp it, and what they don’t grasp they pull down and hostile towards the proclaimers.

And thus processes within the earth cannot be explained to these people which they cannot feel themselves. Furthermore, only a few people are able to form a true picture of processes in the universe because this requires a spiritual faculty of imagination which necessitates a complete detachment from matter. No worldly-minded person can see spiritual processes which, however, are decisive for natural processes in individual material creations. Thus rotational movements can also increase through the influence of spiritual forces within the earth and yet be regulated again by precisely such higher intelligence in order not to overturn the existing laws of nature, i.e. to have an earthly-destructive effect, before this is permitted by Me that the earth is reshaped through this work of destruction according to My will. All movement comes about through spiritual strength, and as long as this strength still finds its lord every earthly process is also in divine order, i.e. without danger of a destructive effect, because the power controlling it inhibits where it wants to develop excessively. But at times they are given free rein, and then eruptions of the earth’s interior are the result, because those forces seek an exit to reach the surface from the earth’s interior. That is why these eruptions are more frequent and more violent the closer it gets to the end, because the forces of the earth’s interior develop an unusual urge and are tremendously active. Thus the earth’s revolutions are driven from within but regulated by counterforces until excessive influence from within results in earth tremors and eruptions, so that the laws of nature remain unalterable until I Myself dissolve them through My will when the end of this earth has come ….

Amen

Every proclaimer of My word is blessed by Me if he is only serious about conveying My word to his fellow human beings in order to help them attain eternal life. Thus he speaks in My name, he feels that I want to speak to people and does so for Me …. he proclaims My word …. But what do you humans understand by My word? The word you want to proclaim must always have been spoken by Me once, otherwise you would not be able to call it My word. I must have addressed people directly or indirectly, i.e. through My servants and prophets, and thus revealed Myself to them. And you, as My proclaimers, must be fully convinced of this, otherwise proclaiming My word would just be more form which I do not value and which is also not pleasing to Me. Thus, again, only a person who is fully convinced of his sermon may deliver it to his fellow human beings if he wants to be My representative on earth, if he also wants to receive My blessing as a preacher of My word. He must have accepted My word within himself and live accordingly. Then I Myself will speak through him as soon as he speaks for Me. He then not only repeats what I once spoke to the people, but: I Myself speak to people again and again, as soon as he hands himself over to Me as a mouthpiece, of which I only make use in order to repeatedly convey My word to them. Anyone who therefore has a living faith in Me and is willing to work for Me with humble love constantly accepts My word, for it is I Who now guides his thoughts, Who gives him the words which once came forth from Me and which I always and forever repeat, because heaven and earth pass away but My word remains in existence for all eternity. You humans, who proclaim My word to your fellow human beings in My name, you allow Me to use your tongue Myself through your will, that you receive My word yourselves and at the same time pray it again for your own and your fellow human beings’ blessing …. You are not yet quite aware of your ministry if you believe that you can only receive the word from the book of the fathers …. you would not be able to do this if you did not let Me Myself work in you, otherwise it would remain an empty word which does not have a power-awakening and power-giving effect …. The merely spoken word, which is not conveyed to fellow human beings in association with Me, cannot be touched according to the letter, yet it remains ineffective if you yourselves do not let Me work in you, and then you cannot claim to have proclaimed the word of God, even though it is the same in letter form …. I Myself want to reveal Myself and always do so if only the proclaimer, in deepest love for Me and in living faith in Me, wants to receive My word from Me Myself in order to pass it on to his fellow human beings whom he wants to help into beatitude. Love for Me and for his fellow human beings must impel him to proclaim My word, and then he will always speak driven by My spirit, for then he will not speak himself but I will speak through him and he will proclaim the pure gospel ….

Amen

It concerns eternal life …. the soul’s life in the spiritual kingdom after the human being’s death on earth …. it concerns eternity. Do you humans understand the implications of this? Consider the immense responsibility you have in earthly life, where you create your own fate in eternity, where all means are at your disposal in order to become blessed and which you ignore at enormous expense to your soul. Consider that you will be held accountable for your thoughts, will and actions on earth, and that you will not be able to undo anything, neither will you be able to catch up on what you neglected to do …. but that you will find utterly appropriate justice in accordance with your earthly life. Every thought, every action will automatically either divert the human being from the goal or lead him to it. And therefore he should always endeavour to gain God’s pleasure in order to be able to stand before His Judgment seat one day.

It concerns your soul’s salvation, and during your earthly life you only take notice of your body and its requirements but ignore your soul. God’s love, however, does not want to let go of you, it does not want you to become eternally lost but wants you to have eternal life …. God’s love will pursue you for as long as you live on earth. God will bear your faults and weaknesses with infinite patience, and His mercy will know no bounds. As long as you live on earth His love is yours and longs for union with you. And this union with the ultimate love will result in a state of happiness which He wants to bestow on you because you all are His children. It is a very difficult start to guide you into happiness as long as you do not have the will for it yourselves.

And yet, this will cannot be forced; you have to change yourselves in utmost freedom into your fundamental nature again, which you once possessed when you came forth from God, your Creator and Father since eternity. Then you will be God-like beings again who will be able to enter into unity with Him without ceasing to exist in His light. And this change of nature is your earthly task, your goal and your destiny. It is not difficult if you only want God, but it will be a hard fight if you adhere to the world. This is why the world is your enemy, your danger and your downfall. Consequently, you should avoid it, you should not fall under its spell, you should rise above it and only strive for the divine kingdom, which will truly offer you far more delectable possessions; you should ask for God, Who can and wants to give you everything that will make you blissfully happy ….

Amen

O you fools who believe you can determine the love of your God …. you blind in spirit who have not yet recognized Me, who have not yet felt My presence and who therefore cannot understand that I make Myself known to those who desire My word. You fools who do not know that I am the eternal word Myself and therefore have to speak when I am present to you and want to prove My presence to you. You certainly repeat what I once said when I lived on earth, yet as long as I Myself am not present to you they are only dead letters which you spread and which only come alive when you perceive them as signs of My presence, because then you will hear Me speak Myself, Who reveals Myself to you through the spirit. In the beginning was the word, and the word was with God …. (and God is the word). I Myself am My word, and My spirit is in every word which testifies of Me. I speak to people in every place and at every time as soon as the human being opens his ear to Me, as soon as he desires to hear Me and listens for the expression of My love. And this love will never become exhausted, just as therefore My word can never cease to resound in the hearts of people who love Me. Therefore, anyone who believes that I only once made Myself known to the disciples, anyone who believes that I will now remain silent and will never again be in such close contact with people that they will be able to hear Me, is living in a great error which is very detrimental to himself, because he will never be able to hear My voice if he does not believe that I reveal Myself, that My love wants to express itself to you humans and give you a sign that I am present to you. Because I am an essential deity I must also be able to testify to My nature and thus speak to you humans. You, too, can only recognize another being if it can express its thoughts, intentions and feelings, otherwise it will remain dead and unrecognized by you. And since I want you humans to learn to recognize Me, I must speak to you.

(18.11.1950) What father who loves his children would remain silent if he knew they were in need? …. What father would make a vow to speak to his children only once and then remain silent forever? You humans do not know your father in heaven if you imagine Him to be a ruthless being with principles which lack all love. Just as a hen coaxes her chicks to protect them from danger, so I am always and constantly a caller and admonisher and how else but through My word, which testifies to Me Myself and My love and care for you? …. O you fools who believe that My love would diminish, that it could ever be spent …. that I, the word from eternity, could once be silent because I have already spoken to you once …. Consider how weak your faith is and how you measure Me with earthly yardsticks, how you attach to Me the weaknesses and shortcomings of an earthly person whose love is limited because he is still imperfect. My word will always resound and every person will be able to hear it who shapes himself according to My will, who prepares his heart to be a dwelling place where his lord can take up residence …. And if He is with him, if He is present to him, He will also express Himself and speak words of love and wisdom to him, as I have promised. And never ever shall you doubt it, otherwise My word spoken on earth would also be invalidated, which proclaimed My spirit to you until the end of time: “I will remain with you until the end of the world ….” “My Spirit will guide you into truth ….” And if you have a deep, living faith you will not regard Me as a distant God but as an over-good, loving father Who always wants to be and remain united with you and Whom you can then also hear, Who always speaks to you if you desire to hear Him ….

Amen

The will to serve Me links the human being to My flock of disciples who I instructed to proclaim the Gospel. Every person wanting to work as a labourer in the vineyard of the Lord is welcome by Me, because many reapers are needed during the time of the end. I only value free will and assign to everyone work they are capable of doing. Hence, I do not reject anyone because I need all of them. The work first of all consists of spreading My teaching of love, and this mission is extremely important because during the last days people will thoughtlessly spend their lives entirely without love. Understandably, someone who is to spread the truth must live a life of love himself, otherwise his words would have no effect on his fellow human beings. Hence I can only use people as labourers in My vineyard if they observe the commandment of love for God and other people themselves, because only those people are capable of accepting My instructions, but in fact, only those people voluntarily offer to be of service to Me. The first condition to be a suitable worker in My vineyard therefore consists of activity of unselfish neighbourly love, and I also grant My special love to such a person who lives a life of love himself …. I regard him as My child, for it has recognised Me as its Father and wants to serve Me obediently …. For this reason, every person can regard himself as My child who places himself at My disposal for spiritual cooperation, while the others are indeed My living creations which I love and never want to lose but which must prove themselves as My children first by fulfilling My will. Consequently, I send My children to their brothers and sisters who have not recognised their Father as yet and let them be taught by the former …. which is a mission of such importance that I will always work together with My children in order to save souls from their eternal downfall. Children who have already found Me shall also show the path to the others, so that these, too, can experience the bliss of My presence, which equally turns them into My children. During the time of the end even light beings must descend to earth in order to help people, because they are extremely strongly influenced by the opposite side and people are too weak to offer resistance. These light beings embodied as human beings possess strong souls which strive towards Me, even though they lack the past awareness of their origin. They will always strive upwards and will never let themselves be influenced by low forces; nevertheless, as human beings on earth they wage a battle with them but will emerge victoriously. Powerful psychological strength often suggests a soul from above, yet the soul is not aware of this, otherwise its mission would become less important, which must always be and remain a free decision of will. The soul might well suspect it as a result of increased knowledge, yet for the soul’s own sake this fact will remain hidden from it until the time of complete spiritualisation, shortly before its demise, when, during a spiritual vision, it will recognise its origin and will long to return, full of yearning, to where it will be blissfully united with Me again. Such an incarnated being of light can be of great benefit on earth due to its spiritual strength and its love for its fellow human beings, however, as long as it lives on earth it is just a human being who, like any other human being, has to go through a process of development in order to be able to increase its spiritual powers, for he shall be an example for his fellow human beings who can attain the same powers as him, if they are willing to do so. A person on earth can even muster these light beings’ greater willpower by availing themselves of the blessings of the act of Salvation, on account of which precisely this teaching is diligently endorsed by those who are to proclaim the Gospel. Jesus Christ as the divine Redeemer and His teaching of love shall be proclaimed to people, and for this I need My servants on earth, so that all people will find the strength to strive towards ascent and release themselves from their tormentor who wants to plunge them into ruin if they are not being helped. For that reason I will bless every person who wants to help these souls, who serves Me as a servant in My vineyard, who, as a spiritual assistant, spreads light in the darkness of night in which people walk without reaching the right goal. And spreading light means instructing people in the truth, which I Myself impart upon those who thus want to be of service to Me.

Amen

A constant battle is waged between light and darkness, which is why even the pure truth on earth does not remain untouched but is constantly to be displaced by lies and error. It is the battle between light and darkness equal to the battle between truth and error. Both will have their followers and thus fight against each other, for truth wants to assert itself as a divine emanation against the lie, the product of dark power. Anyone who walks in truth will also walk in light, i.e. everything will be understandable and recognizable to him and also make God’s nature comprehensible to him, whereas lies and error darken the human being, give him a completely unclear image and ultimately cause him to lose faith in a supremely perfect being. The lie is no match for the pure truth, and yet the lie has the best weapon against the truth …. the human being’s spiritual blindness, who therefore can no longer recognize the truth when he is entangled in the lie and error. This is why the battle of light against darkness is waged with all zeal, because a single ray of light can break through the spiritual darkness and the human being will then recognize the untenability and doubtfulness of what he was offered, even though he is still incapable of recognizing the truth. But as soon as the human being starts to ask questions, he can also receive the answer, and the darkness decreases, a quiet twilight spreads before the human being, which he now tries to penetrate more eagerly. Therefore, before the pure truth is conveyed to the human being, he must be made aware of lies and error by being stimulated to think about the erroneous spiritual knowledge imparted to him. The first doubt about this is already progress, a victory that the light has won over darkness. The battle between light and darkness rages ever more fiercely the closer it gets to the end. For it is a fierce battle between God and His adversary, between the eternal truth and the prince of lies …. Through the lie the soul is separated from God, whereas truth inevitably leads to God. Only through truth can God win His living creations for eternity, whereas the lie bars the path to God and the living creature falls hopelessly prey to the father of lies, therefore the battle between light and darkness can only be waged successfully if messengers of light convey the truth to people, if they draw people’s attention to satan’s activity, which clearly manifests itself in humanity’s heartlessness and therefore can never ever lead to the knowledge and realization of God. And anyone who is not yet completely under satan’s control is also accessible to the pure truth and accepts without resistance what is imparted to him by messengers of light through God’s greater than great love …. He will recognize the truth and also learn to recognize God as the eternal truth, he will turn away from darkness and seek the light, and his soul will not be lost ….

Amen

Humanity will experience significant spiritual upheaval to enable it to recognise a misconception which, until now, it had endorsed as truth. I will noticeably draw people’s attention to My Word …. I will destabilise a rock …. and people themselves shall be able to decide what they want to discard: My Word or an organisation which had established itself as a result of this Word. They will only be able to accept one of them, and every person will be free to make his own decision. I will only allow this to happen for people’s own sake in order to release them from a coercion which enslaved their thoughts and will and thus prevented the decision of will, which is the reason for a human being’s life on earth.

I want to make a rock waver …. and once the foundation is shaken the entire structure will crash, i.e. people will no longer feel committed but freely think and act at their own discretion. They will no longer fear a power supported by God, because only now will they recognise Me, Who is stronger than this power and does not support it. It will certainly mean spiritual chaos and at first the error will still want to assert itself, but then the truth will flare up like lightning and will clearly highlight wrong doctrines. They will not bear up to truth, for messengers of truth, bearers of light, will appear everywhere and be listened to, even though they will attract bitter hostility from the followers of the deposed power.

I Am revealing the forthcoming event to you humans and you can expect it soon, however, everything will take its time, and this occurrence, too, will point to the approaching end, for seers and prophets announced the end of a great city …. It will be a world-shattering event which, nevertheless, has a spiritual foundation and is intended to have a spiritual effect. It shall testify of Me before the world Who, as Eternal Truth, will never tolerate untruth and will proceed against it when the time is right ….

Amen

Much seed is sown and little fruit is produced …. Yet the fault is not to be found in the goodness of the seed but the soil which receives the seed is often unsuitable to let the seed sprout and bring forth good fruit. And therefore I need willing labourers who first cultivate the soil so that a good seed can be planted in it, and I need many reapers for the harvest who gather the fruit for Me and bring it to the sheds. The cultivation of the field has to be human labour; I can indeed give good seed, My word from eternity, but not every field …. the human heart …. I cannot shape every field through My will into good, receptive soil until it has subordinated its will to Mine, and this work must therefore be done by the human being himself, in which he should be helped by fellow human beings devoted to Me …. The field must first be cleared of weeds …. a mission which My labourers in the vineyard shall also carry out, to root out erroneous teachings and wrong opinions through correct instruction and to purify the heart so that it can receive good seed, My divine word, which can now unfold and grow and prosper according to the willingness of My servants on earth who want to spread My teaching of love, My word, amongst their fellow human beings. Much good seed is sown but not always accepted by the human heart. Then the seed falls on stony ground and does not take root there …. The word has been heard with the ears, but it does not reach the heart, it dies away and is spoken in vain. It is seed that has been wasted completely uselessly. But even then the seed can wither away if it has touched the human heart, if the emerging little plant is not nurtured and cared for, if the word is taken seriously by the human being for a short time but is forgotten again through external impressions and thus the little plant has no strength to sprout because the human being lacks the will to do so, because it is not watered with the water of love which is necessary for growth so that the little plant does not wither. How often is good seed scattered and does not come to fruition. And mostly it is the water of love that is lacking, for this alone allows the seed to flourish when the preliminary work has been done to make the field receptive for the seed, which is the pure word of God, My divine teaching of love. Anyone who follows this, who diligently practices love, will also supply the soil with the water of love in which even the most tender little plant has to grow, because it will always find new nourishment and finally be blessed by Me Myself by imparting ever new strength of love to the one who lives out My word as it is My will. Then the seed can bear fruit a hundredfold, again and again My word will be preached, also by those who first had to live it out themselves in order to experience its effect on themselves, which then makes him the living representative of what the word has given him himself. Then the seed will have fallen on good soil, then the field will have been cleansed of weeds, erroneous teachings will have been adopted, and only pure truth will animate the human being’s thinking and starting, and his soul will live forever, for it will have developed into a fruit which is pleasing to Me ….

Amen

You are children of love, you emerged from My strength of love and are constantly cared for and looked after by My never-ending love. My love for you is boundless and will never let you get lost forever. But My love also gave you free will as a characteristic of perfection, otherwise My love for you would have been limited if it had denied you something which belongs to perfection. Only free will makes you divine beings who, having originated from Me, also had to be like Me. But at the same time free will made you beings with the right of self-determination who could now do and leave what they wanted of their own accord and affirm or deny their affiliation with Me themselves. This free decision of will also had to be granted to people so that they could prove their perfection, which required unconditional connection to Me. A perfectly created being had not yet reached the highest degree, for it first had to acquire it by remaining perfect of its own free will, wherever it was able to descend. The spiritual being’s former apostasy from Me can only be portrayed to you humans on earth in this way if you want to understand why the spiritual being fell, why it became sinful against Me. It misused its free will and turned away from Me because it thought itself so powerful and exalted that it did not believe itself to be dependent on My strength of love. It had to be offered the opportunity to decide for a different aim than for Me in order to make a free decision of will. And this opposite pole was the first being of light emanating from Me which made use of My strength flowing to it without measure by creating beings without number with My will well, because I did not withdraw the strength from it. Its will, however, aimed to increase its own strength against Me in order to be independent of Me. It did not want to acknowledge Me as what I was …. as the original source of strength which it drew and which enabled it to create and shape according to its own will. Hence its free will turned away from Me, and it also placed this counter will into the spiritual creations which had emerged from My strength through it. Thus you were indeed children of My love but also children of an evil will which was directed against Me. And thus you once separated from Me of your own free will without, however, being able to completely separate from Me, because I keep you by virtue of My greater than great love, which will also win you back again, which will not let you fall but always lift you up again from the abyss if you strive towards it of your own will. But My love has no end …. and it wins you irrevocably. However, you determine the time yourselves ….

(24.11.1950) because you have free will …. Free will characterizes you as My living creations, as independent beings, and according to this free will you create the respective state for yourselves without being prevented by Me. But because I love you and want to win you I shape your destiny such that you can lift the separation from Me if you use your will correctly, that you strive for unity with Me and thus also accept your original nature again, that you are My children again in truth who have now decided for Me of their own accord and reject My adversary. But I also want to win him, and if eternities pass over it …. He, too, was a child of My love, emerged from My elemental strength and endowed with all gifts which made him a perfect being. Therefore I will not let him get lost for eternity either, I also court him and let him feel My love again and again, yet his will is still rigidly turned away from Me, and since I also give him free rein it is still a work of exceedingly great patience and mercy to allow his will the freedom and yet influence him so that he voluntarily surrenders to Me. Yet even if it takes eternities My love will triumph over the one who is still devoid of all love. One day he, too, will recognize My love and long for it, because it alone causes bliss and because no being can separate itself from Me forever but ultimately strives for the union which will make it inexpressibly blissful ….

Amen

No human being can even begin to imagine the glories of the spiritual kingdom, which I expressed through My words: “What no human eye has ever seen and no human ear has ever heard, that I have prepared for those who love Me ….” They are unimaginable spiritual creations, they are unimaginable delights which delight the being there which has entered the kingdom of light and thus is redeemed from the sin of former resistance against its creator and father of eternity. But the still unredeemed souls create their surroundings themselves, for their will transfers them to where their thoughts dwell, and these are mostly still with earthly material things or on earth where they have dwelled and they still want to satisfy their desire. This is why the spiritual realms will still appear earthly to these imperfect souls, for they are not yet able to see spiritually and therefore only the images they imagine themselves appear before their eyes. The blissful beings, however, have overcome earthly matter and their desire is for spiritual treasures which, however, cannot be described to people on earth since they lack the power of imagination. When glorious delights are spoken of, it is first and foremost the connection with Me which creates delights of an incomparable kind for the beings. They receive light and distribute it, they move in spiritual creations which testify to My strength and glory. They are only active for Me with ardent love and also transfer this love to the beings which still dwell in darkness, in the spheres of imperfect spirits. Therefore, as long as you are given an imaginable description of the spiritual kingdom it is the state of souls which only know earthly concepts and are not yet mature enough for the kingdom of light. To understand the state of the blessed, on the other hand, already requires a degree of maturity which only rarely people on earth have. Figurative comparisons can certainly be used to give an insight into the activity of the inhabitants of the kingdom of light, but it will only be comprehensible to you humans when you are allowed to enter the kingdom of light yourselves, but then there will be no end to your amazement. You should always accept My word: No man’s eye has ever seen and no man’s ear ever heard what I have prepared for those who love Me. Then every description will only seem figurative to you, certainly in accordance with the truth but not to be interpreted appropriately for someone who has not yet reached the degree of maturity which is necessary for entry into the kingdom of light ….

Amen

I want to make Myself known to you in earthly and spiritual adversity. You shall always feel Me, you shall always be aware of My presence and I will strengthen you when you become weak. You only have a short time left which you should spend in silent work for Me and My kingdom; but then greater demands will approach you, earthly as well as spiritually, for every earthly adversity also makes the spiritual work more urgent, because you should help your fellow human beings who are not aware of the cause and purpose of the suffering which befalls people. Then you will obviously feel My help, then you will also give Me the opportunity to reveal Myself to you through your faith and your love for your fellow human beings, so that you will be certain of My everlasting presence and can draw strength from this awareness for every activity. Soon your time will have come, the time when you can openly work for Me and My kingdom, the time when the hardship around you drives you to eager activity and you feel called by Me in your heart to work in My vineyard. Then speak where the opportunity is offered to you, speak when your heart urges you to do so, for I will lead the people to you who need My working through you. Then My blessing will be visibly with you and your paths will be smoothed so that you will not be hindered in your work for the spiritual kingdom. The hour when I fetch you home will still come soon enough, but before that I still have much work for you and need your full commitment so that this work can still be done before the end comes. Nothing will seem unusual what you undertake, but you yourselves will feel My hand and all who are of awakened spirit likewise. Yet nothing unusual will happen in front of the world, for of their own free will people shall listen to you and let your words have an effect on them, and you and they will often be offered the opportunity to do so, for the earthly situation itself contributes towards fellow human beings not remaining closed if you bring My gospel to them, and they prefer to receive it from your mouth, they listen to you because you speak to them in a living way and are permeated by the truth of it yourselves. You will still have much work to do but you will never be without help …. But until I call you, work in silence and your work will be blessed ….

Amen

The path to God is close via Jesus Christ but infinitely long without Him, for He offered Himself to serve as a bridge to shorten the infinitely long path for people who are separated from God by a wide gulf, who are so far away from Him that they would need eternities to reach God. But people’s existence on earth is too short for this aim, and therefore the man Jesus, out of love for humanity in adversity, took a short path which was extremely difficult and arduous to cover but which nevertheless allowed Him to reach the aim. He took a path through His love and achieved with God that all people may choose this path who want to follow Him in order to reach God. It is a narrow, thorny path which only few people want to take, but Jesus Christ wants to be the leader of all those who trust Him and abandon themselves to Him and His guidance. And they only ever have to follow without resistance, they have to believe that He alone can help them to reach the heavenly father, they have to believe in Him Who walked the path of the cross for them of His own will, out of overwhelming love for humanity in order to lead it to beatitude, which can only be found with the heavenly father. His path was hard and bitter, sorrowful beyond measure and unspeakably difficult, for He carried an enormous burden on His shoulder …. He bore the sin of humanity because He wanted to bring it to the father so that humanity could find forgiveness. He had a heavy cross to bear, but His love was so great that He laid aside the cross, that He went before God to ask Him to accept His sacrifice for the sin of His fellow human beings …. And God accepted the sacrifice …. He forgave all people who hand over their guilt to Jesus Christ and ask Him for His blessing, for His help on the earthly walk, for guidance on the earthly path upwards, to the father, to eternal life. They can now reach their aim during earthly life if they choose the only path that leads safely upwards, the path of the lord, if they want to be true followers of Jesus Christ who entrust themselves to Him in their weakness and guilt of sin. But never without Him; without Jesus Christ the gulf is unbridgeable, and never again does the path lead upwards but always more and more into the abyss, if the cross of salvation is not heeded, which stands at the beginning of the path that safely leads upwards. And again and again He Himself steps into the path of the earthly wanderer, pointing him in the direction which leads upwards …. But he who does not listen to Him does not follow Him either. He will still have to wander in darkness for endless times, because without Jesus Christ no ray of light will touch him and without light he will go astray ….

Amen

Immense strength will permeate you if you accept My Word with faith in Me and with love, if you want to hear Me and faithfully receive My Word. Then you will effectively force Me to be present to you, and My presence must also emanate strength, and although it is only felt beneficially by your soul, it is exceedingly grateful for it. Once a person accepts My Word consciously, the separation from him to Me will have been overcome, since hearing My voice is also the evidence of My presence. His will and desire to hear Me is sufficient for Me to be inclined towards him and speak to him in any form, in Word or scripture, directly or through messengers or also in spiritual conversations …. I will always reveal Myself to the one who wants to hear Me. Therefore you humans have a reliable means of eliminating the separation from Me by withdrawing into silence or by engrossing yourselves in a book containing My Word and when you thereby acknowledge Me as a Being you wish to be close to. Then you will inevitably draw Me close to you, for I perceive every heartfelt wish and will grant it. Nevertheless, My Word will remain lifeless for you if you merely read it without sincerely desiring Me …. For this reason, not everyone will draw the same strength from My Word; this is why it may greatly strengthen one person whilst another will not feel any effect at all, because his heart remained indifferent while his eyes and ears accepted My Word. You yourselves determine the effect of My Word, you can take possession of an abundance of strength or give sparsely to your soul, depending on your heart’s degree of desire, for you either accept Me and allow Me to be present or you close the door to your heart and deny Me entrance, even if I knock at your door and wish to come in. For I often come to meet you by Myself if you do not draw Me to you through your desire …. I offer you an exquisite gift indeed, because I Myself would gladly like to speak to you; nevertheless, I will not force My gift on someone who does not want it, but once a person has felt the strength of My Word his soul will constantly long for it. He will never let Me bypass him but accept Me in his heart instead, so that I will remain there and constantly refresh the soul …. And so it will never need to go hungry and live in want, it will always be replenished with My Word and receive strength without limitation ….

Amen

Take hold of the hand which lovingly reaches out to you and let yourselves be drawn up from the abyss to Me. Even if you believe that you don’t need help, accept My assistance, for you can rely on the strength to persevere when the ascent becomes more difficult, and then you will only be dependent on My help. Your earthly path is becoming increasingly more difficult for each individual, and without the supply of strength from above almost no further ascent is possible. But I want to give you this strength and therefore lovingly stretch out My hands to you which you should use to support yourselves if you lack strength. And if you are in darkness I will bring you light so that you will recognize the path you should take for your salvation. I approach you with My word and make Myself known to you by offering it to you in hours of weakness, in hours of spiritual hardship. Then you need My help, and I also obviously provide it. I am always close to you, but especially when you are in need, because I cannot reveal Myself to you in any other way than through help which proves My presence …. through My word, which you may always believe. Without My word you are in distress of soul, you are in the depth from which I would like to lift you up to Me. If you now hear My word you are no longer far from Me, you allow Me to be close to you, for I am My word Myself …. thus you desire Me if you desire My word, and since I will not deny Myself to any human being I will therefore stretch out My hands to him as soon as I meet him in the word. How and in what form you receive it is the same if you only desire it and let Me speak to you. Then you will allow My presence, you will name Me as your guide, you will accept My hand and thus also My help, and you will no longer be able to get lost, for with Me and with Me there is no downfall but only an ascent until you finally reach the aim. You are people without Me in great adversity, therefore don’t avert your eyes from Me when I meet you, listen to My call which applies to you, let Me guide you upwards, for you are too weak on your own and will never reach the aim ….

Amen

What the prophets are to proclaim in My will does not emerge from themselves but their spirit receives the instruction from Me to express itself, irrespective of whether the person has consciously or unconsciously found contact with the spirit within himself; a person can speak, impelled by My spirit, if he is in the midst of people to whom he would never speak of his own accord. Then the working of My spirit is therefore obvious, he speaks in full awareness, yet not intended beforehand, but suddenly, enlightened by My spirit, he sees things in the future before his eyes which he has to inform people of. These are the seers and prophets who will also appear more frequently in the end time when the end draws closer and closer. These people need not consciously be in service to Me and My kingdom, only their way of life will always correspond to My will, otherwise I would not use them as My instruments. But people who consciously offer themselves to Me for service can likewise work prophetically for Me if they are chosen by Me for a teaching activity. Then they will, as it were, be initiated into My plan of salvation, which also includes the knowledge of future events. Then the person who wants to serve Me will be informed of the events in the last days before the end, and then he has the task to mention them to his fellow human beings, even though he cannot be addressed as a seer because he lacks this gift to see future things. He only hears what the spirit within him proclaims to him and reproduces what he hears, which now also requires his faith for the time being in order to be able to be presented to his fellow human beings with conviction. So he is a prophet, so to speak, even if he lacks the gift of sight. People who have visions are only temporarily in this stage, in which they then also talk …. so they will mostly only have the visions when they are in the midst of people to whom they can communicate it at the same time. It is true that they are still conscious of their faces afterwards and can give an account of them, but then, as if in a kind of memory, the events which they had experienced before float before them. But the proclamations of seers and prophets always have to agree, providing both live a way of life which corresponds to My will, that is, that they live out My word. For false prophets can also arise who announce the future to people of their own accord but have no connection whatsoever with Me, who want to achieve earthly advantages and gain prominence. Don’t believe them, for they proclaim error even if they point to the end. For My adversary also uses My words when he wants to deceive people, yet My word will always apply: You will recognize them by their fruits …. I draw your attention to the fact that many false prophets will still appear before the end, yet you can easily recognize them that they always try to adapt themselves to the desire of worldly power, thus that their aim is not Me but the prince of the world …. For anyone who wants to speak for Me will also always speak the truth, and he will only appear as a prophet when he has been commissioned by Me through the inner word or through the sudden working of My spirit, which will then also always be recognizable ….

Amen

Recognize yourselves for what you are …. as creatures which not only exist outwardly materially but contain spiritual substances within themselves which must develop upwards to a stage where they are similar to God again. For it was once similar to God and has lost its similarity to God through its own fault. Realize that you are the form in which the spiritual can attain God-likeness again if you live in God’s will. And therefore you first have to acknowledge a God above you, a being Which called you into life and to Whom you, as His living creations, should show love and obedience, for then you will also fulfil His will, and then the spiritual substance in you will also reach its final aim on earth, it will assimilate itself to God’s original being, Which is love in itself, and it will take on the form again which it had from the very beginning.

But you humans lack the recognition of yourselves. That is why you are ill, and you must strive for your recovery yourselves of your own free will. Therefore you can only ever be made aware of your defective state, your spiritual blindness and your wrong way of life, yet you yourselves must benefit from all admonitions and warnings which are repeatedly sent to you through God’s love and grace …. You must reflect on yourselves, on your origin and on your purpose in life. Only then will you put your hand to your soul’s work and live in God’s will. Ignorance is a great obstacle, but people themselves do nothing to change their state of ignorance. They don’t accept any instructions and their thoughts are exclusively turned towards the world; just as they also regard earthly life itself as the purpose of their existence, because they rarely acknowledge a continuation after death. It is their ignorance which makes them think and act wrongly, yet they do nothing to change this ignorance into knowledge. And thus, as long as you humans do not think about what and how you are and what your actual destiny is, you will only remain blind earthly wanderers who, to a certain extent, walk unsuccessfully through earthly life, letting the precious time pass by unused which could earn them a glorious life in eternity. Only the serious contemplation of these questions brings you spiritual brightness and lets your will become active to reach the aim which is set for you for this earthly life. Know yourselves and your origin …. Think about your destiny and your task in life …. Then eagerly try to comply with what you feel alive within you as a duty towards God, for He places this feeling into your heart as soon as you seriously endeavour to fathom the purpose and aim of earthly life, as soon as you, in recognizing yourselves, turn in your heart to the one from Whom you originated. He will help you to ascend, yet you must want it yourselves and appeal to Him for strength and grace. Then you will not walk the earthly path in vain, then the spiritual substance in you will mature and become what it originally was and should become again ….

Amen

True filial piety must fill the human heart who wants to pray to Me in spirit and in truth. And only a deeply humble person has this filial piety who feels small and insignificant, who is aware of his great distance from Me and yet has the filial faith that I accept him when he comes to Me in prayer. He has nothing but this faith in My love which does not let him fall, and this spiritual poverty of his makes him humble, but I grant My grace to the humble and through grace he will become blessed. Spiritual poverty is therefore only the admission of his unworthiness and the desire for My grace and mercy, which everyone who lifts his eyes to Me in such humility will also experience. All who feel spiritually poor, who are aware of their deficient state, long for help and look for it where they hope for love and grace. And I praise them blessedly that they entrust themselves to Me in their spiritual poverty, that they recognize themselves and therefore also appeal to Me, for such a prayer will always be humble and always be heard by Me.

Amen

A significant spiritual course of action will occur which will make people reflect on issues relating to the approaching end, since something will take place that was predicted by seers and prophets a long time ago. These prophesies are quite evidently fulfilling themselves and people are starting to take notice. For then they will pay heed to all the signs because they will begin to believe that the end is near. The spiritual action will have an earthly effect, albeit one originating from the spiritual kingdom, hence beings of light are engaged to bring humanity to its senses. The purely worldly minded person will see nothing but a natural event which by chance has affected people who are the focal point of spiritual activity.

But anyone who considers that nothing ever happens by chance will hesitate and recognise a sign which points to the approaching end. For God’s reign and work is clearly visible; it is not people who manifest their will by implementing God-opposing actions but, instead, a distinct power can be identified which wants to emphatically express itself. This fact, and the way it manifests itself, will make people think, and depending on their spiritual maturity and attitude they will be more or less impressed by the event. The predictions of seers and prophets are fulfilling themselves …. And the powers of heaven shall move …. All spiritual beings are participating and decisively intervening in world events, because the time has come of which it is written: the sun will lose its shine, i.e. the glory will fade which wrongly shone long enough because ignorant people allowed themselves to be dazzled without objection.

But then a light will shine from above, and everything wrong cannot endure its radiance, but the light will emerge from the shadow of death …. that is, it will only come ablaze with light after a sick and decaying body has expired. Then something new will arise from the old, and many people will become enlightened, they will pay attention to the signs of the time and regard everything that happens on earth as God’s will or permission. Heaven and earth will unite for the purpose of bringing light to people who live in darkness. And even if it is people’s own fault that they live in darkness they will nevertheless be noticeably helped, so that they will be able to recognise God’s might if they are observant and look for the light ….

Amen

You can already reach perfection on earth if you voluntarily submit yourselves to Me, if you live according to My will, if you constantly move within divine order. Everything that is good corresponds to My will, but everything that is bad corresponds to the will of the opposite pole, which also influences you in order to make you submissive to its will. It is up to you yourselves to whom you want to submit yourselves; you are completely free, only the rightly used will leads to perfection, whereas otherwise you will be doomed to eternal death, a state of bondage in adversity and torment. Hence there is only one path to perfection …. a way of life according to My will, i.e. a way of life in love of your own free will. As soon as you make an effort in works of unselfish neighbourly love you will also live according to My will, and your soul will mature during your earthly life. Then the short earthly lifetime will suffice to reach a degree of maturity which will make it free from every bondage, thus suitable for the kingdom of light, which the soul can only enter if it is free from every cover impermeable to light. A soul’s degree of maturity can still vary even then, but it is happy if it can inhabit the kingdom of light at all, where there is constant ascent and it can attain ever greater bliss. Yet even the highest bliss can earn it the short time of earthly life, as a true ‘child of God’ it can enter into fullest union with Me in order to never ever be separated from Me again and be able to enjoy the highest delights. This state of childship to God only requires a life of love on earth with utmost unselfishness, a constant striving towards Myself and intimate union with Me, which the human being establishes at all times if he works with love. The world must leave him completely untouched, he must accept suffering and affliction as My mission, his faith must be profound and unshakeable and his will must always bow to Mine …. he must always live with Me and let Me work within himself …. He must feel himself to be My child already on earth and love Me with all his heart …. Then he will also live entirely according to My will and depart from this earth as a true child of God. If you therefore know what you can achieve in the short time of earthly life, but how very few people make use of life for the salvation of their soul, then you can also imagine the state of remorse of the souls which neglected to make My will their own and now look back on a failed earthly life. For even My means of education often don’t have much effect, and I cannot perfect the souls by forcing them. For this reason countless souls enter the kingdom of the beyond in a state of darkness and have to take an agonizing path there until they reach ascent, which, however, is far more difficult than on earth, where the strength of life is at their disposal to act according to their will, except that their will was wrongly directed. However, even in the spiritual kingdom the being’s will remains free …. For this reason you humans should seriously work on yourselves so that you reach a degree of light which brings you realization, so that you will then safely ascend in the beyond and no longer have to fear the danger of sinking back into deepest darkness. You can achieve much on earth because strength and grace are at your disposal without limitation …. Use them and create a fund for eternity …. Live according to My will so that you can enter the kingdom of light, so that earthly life will not be lost for you ….

Amen

The power which awakens life is and remains love, for it alone establishes the connection with the original source of love, which is also the original source of power. Without God there is no life, therefore whoever wants to attain life must receive it from God, which can only happen through activity in love, through which God unites Himself with the human being and this union also results in an overflow of strength which guarantees life. The process of transmitting strength can take place in different forms …. It can manifest itself through the impulse to increased activity of love, it can be expressed as spiritual striving but also be felt as direct transmission of strength, as reception of the divine word, which is strength in itself and has a particularly life-awakening effect. As soon as the soul rises into spiritual spheres through thoughts or desire for God it begins to live; it is born anew and the spirit in it becomes active, and activity is life, thus a spiritual life begins for the soul, it enters a stage of its ascent development which never remains unsuccessful because something living is constantly active and constant activity signifies an increase of wealth which consists of spiritual treasures and is therefore of utmost importance in the spiritual kingdom, after earthly life. Therefore, Jesus Christ promised eternal life to the person who believes in Him and follows Him out of this faith, i.e. who lives a life of love on earth. This person will live eternally …. there will be no more death for him, for once he has become a recipient of strength from God he can no longer remain inactive, because the strength from God stimulates him into spiritual activity, into love and into constant striving upwards. But the connection with God always has to be established by the human being himself, which only love can achieve, but then the reception of strength is guaranteed and there will be no more death for the human being, then he will live eternally as God has promised ….

Amen

Merely the destiny you require in order to change your will, to stop your resistance against Me, is imposed on you. Only I know the extent of your soul’s resistance, and your earthly life will be shaped accordingly. The human being’s relationship with Me can differ considerably, which cannot be judged by another person, because I also know a soul’s most secret thoughts and notions, and therefore a person can be as close to Me as a child, then he will effectively be guided by My Fatherly hand and truly avoid the said abyss and safely reach the goal. Others, however, won’t allow themselves to be led, they believe themselves able to walk alone and trust in their own strength …. I let these occasionally run into obstacles so that they will call for a Guide and enable Me to approach them. Others, again, reject My guidance and meet Me with suspicion, they don’t believe in Me and walk through life alone. And thus they still resist Me, these are the people I have to deal with strictly and who are spared nothing in earthly life, so that they will still change before it is too late. I will only try to achieve their change of will, and this change may often come about through an event which you consider to be cruel and unkind of Me as long as you are still unaware of the fact that you have not only been created for this earthly life but that the whole of eternity is still ahead of you. And for the sake of this eternity I will use all means, depending on the severity of your resistance. But anyone who surrenders to Me will no longer need exceptional teaching methods, and I will place My hands beneath his feet so that his earthly path will be easily negotiable, although he, too, still requires trials in order to raise his degree of maturity, which impel him to Me until even the last distance from Me has been overcome, until he, in blissful unity with Me, can conclude his earthly life ….

Amen

Your love for Me also results in your gratitude for everything I give to you, even if you don’t put your feelings of gratitude into words it nevertheless is in your heart, into which I can look at any time. The mouth often voices what the heart is not aware of, and such words mean nothing to Me. But the heart can feel without expressing itself with words, and I only take such feeling into account. A person’s heart, having received kindness, will also respond with love and be thankful to the giver. But to accept a gift without gratitude betrays innermost heartlessness, it betrays arrogance towards a fellow human being which makes him feel entitled to have received something. The same also applies to Me, so that the humble person always accepts My gifts of grace with a grateful heart, be they spiritual or earthly offerings I give to Him in My love. Humble childlike love is always evidence of gratitude …. Thus words are not necessary for Me, yet you should not fail to express your thankfulness towards your fellow human being so as not to hurt the giver and repay his love with unkindness. Although someone who only gives for the sake of gratitude certainly lacks the right love for his neighbour every well-intentioned gift should nevertheless be gratefully acknowledged so that the giver shall also learn to know the pleasure of giving, so that the giver’s love will be kindled by the pleasure of the recipient, for a warmly felt gratitude can inspire further giving, which will always be a blessing for the giver and the recipient. Gratitude is inseparable from love, because a grateful word without love cannot be called true gratitude. But the life, thoughts and actions of a loving person constitute never-ending gratefulness towards the One Who created him, for his will also belongs to Him, He owns the love of his heart which, bowed down in most profound humbleness, receives every gift from Him with emotion. This gratitude is pleasing to Me, since I also possess the love of My living creations which will then always receive beyond measure, so that they become blissfully happy ….

Amen

You can live in a world of devils and still be closely united with Me. I want to give you this comfort so that you will not become weak in the last days which precede the end. For during this time you, who are Mine, will be surrounded by devils who will harass you greatly for the sake of faith. And if you mention My name to them you will stir them up and you will have to suffer much from their malice, because they will attack everything that stands by Me. And yet, this is precisely your strongest weapon, your strongest protection, that you remain faithful to Me …. Then you let Me always be present with you and no-one can harm you if I am with you. Thus I also dwell in the midst of devils but in the hearts of those who belong to Me, who love Me and believe in Me, in My love and omnipotence, who are therefore convinced that I will save them from all adversity, that I am also lord over all evil …. You will be closely united with Me and your longing will grow from day to day, and this desire for Me will inevitably draw Me to you. Therefore you need not fear, even in greatest earthly adversity …. For everything is possible for Me, I can save you from greatest danger and am also victor over those. The world will hate and persecute you. But I love you and will protect you until your hour has come when you will enter My kingdom. And I tell you for your comfort that your faith will also grow stronger the more it is shaken, because those who earnestly strive towards Me experience a strengthening of faith from Me Myself and their spiritual attitude towards Me takes on a form which is a true child’s relationship, and thus their trust in Me is also very great, so that they only fear little earthly adversity because they are fully convinced that I will save them. I will not leave you if you do not leave Me …. But you, who are Mine, can no longer leave Me because My love draws you. This is why I am constantly present to you and always will be, and especially when hell opens up and takes action against you. Then I will fight by your side and victory will be ours ….

Amen

He who humbles himself will be exalted. But anyone who allows himself to be honoured by his fellow human beings will truly have a smaller reward in the beyond, for he has already received his reward. You humans are only on earth because you are still imperfect, otherwise you would have already entered the kingdom of the blessed spirits, which requires the degree of perfection. But if you are imperfect, how can you then demand honour from your fellow human beings? How can you let yourselves be honoured, who could not yet exist before My eyes, if I suddenly call you away from this world? …. He who humbles himself will be exalted …. Consequently, an exaltation in My kingdom requires profound humility which you should not only demonstrate to Me but also to your fellow human beings, although this should not be understood as submissiveness and grovelling service. But you humans should never exalt yourselves above your fellow human beings. What distinguishes you in spiritual gifts, what you possess in talents, lively intellect or other abilities is not your merit but has been given to you by your creator and father according to your purpose on earth. Therefore, these gifts should not make you arrogant but only grateful to the one Who has endowed you so richly. But you should nevertheless remain aware of the fact that your soul is still unfinished and that it alone survives the body …. that all earthly gifts will therefore pass away just as you once passed away yourselves and that nothing will remain apart from your soul which gives you the right to be arrogant. Therefore it is not fitting on earth that a person should be shown excessive reverence, that people who are his brothers should bow down before him or lie at his feet in service. It is not fitting that a person should allow himself to be honoured and elevated to the status of a king if he has not been given such dominion. For even every earthly ruler should be regarded by his subjects as a loving, fatherly ruler if he wants to win their love and not just be feared. Then every subject will of its own accord pay him the honour that is due to him. But he, as earthly ruler, is set above people by My will. Yet even his arrogance is not a virtue but a weakness and a mistake before My eyes. You humans are all equal before Me, you should be like brothers to each other, you should serve each other in love, then you will move on earth like My true children and remain humble of heart …. For you should always imagine My walk on earth, how I walked amongst people with My disciples, to whom I stood by like a brother and friend and whom I also taught like a brother …. All power was truly at My disposal and I could create everything for Myself, earthly wealth and prestige before the world. I could have ruled like a king and claimed all honours for Myself; but I did not see the high, I only saw the wretched, the weak and bowed down to him; I knew no arrogance and did not seek honour and glory from men. I only gave love and also only demanded love from people. And whoever wants to follow Me should serve in love, but never want to rule in power. Only then can he be placed above great things in My kingdom when he has humbled himself on earth like Me ….

Amen
