Kind Fatherly Words of comfort ….
B.D. 5057 from February 8th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
Look up to Me in every adversity and don’t abandon yourselves to anxious thoughts which inhibit your spiritual striving, which weaken you and make you waver because you are effectively captivated by the material world. All earthly worry is superfluous providing you recognise your Father in Me to Whom you can turn with all earthly problems with complete confidence. Always bear My great love in mind, think of yourselves as standing within this abundance of love and know that no hardship exists which I cannot master and that I will provide you with everything you ask for to enable you to be of service to Me without worry. I always have an open ear for your requests and problems, and I will never let you call in vain because I want you to have a living faith to enable you to experience the strength of such faith. I want to help you and I will help you …. And if you firmly believe this, you will banish all adversity yourselves and join Me ever more intimately, which is My intention, so that you will stand firm and full of strength when the time of adversity comes upon you, which is inevitable for the whole of humanity. Seek help from Me at all times and look up to Me with absolute confidence, and My help will be obvious, because I took everything from you in order to provide for you without limitation ….
Amen

Revelation of the divine will …. love commandments ….
B.D. 5058 from February 9th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
You must fulfil My revealed will if you want to become blessed. And therefore you must avoid and detest everything which contradicts My will and thus, to a certain extent, constantly criticize your thoughts, intentions and actions. For these must always be in harmony with My commandments which demand love for Me and for your neighbour. Your will, thoughts and actions must therefore always be based on love for Me and your neighbour, it must drive you to a righteous way of life which will then always correspond to My will. Self-criticism is an extraordinary blessing, and where you only discover the slightest lack of love this already signifies a slight resistance against Me, a disregard for My will and a danger for your soul. You must constantly give account to yourselves for your thoughts, intentions and actions, you must work on yourselves so that you accomplish the change of nature in yourselves, so that you become perfect. My will is only to guide you into eternal order, and this consists of a life of love. If your way of life is determined by love, if you do good to your neighbour and always strive to fulfil My will, you will enter the eternal order again and become divine beings again, which you once were before you fell away from Me …. before you left My order. But now, in your contrary state, that order, My divine will, is revealed to you …. You will receive knowledge of it, the effects of the wrong as well as the right direction of will will be presented to you, you will be taught the right way of life and informed of the consequences of a wrong way of life, and now you can live your earthly life in fullest freedom of will but also have to bear its consequences. If you love Me and your neighbour then you will live according to My will, because then you cannot help but move within My eternal order, for love is primal law, it is perfection, light and strength. Then you will take on your original form again, you will become again as I created you, for you emerged from the abundance of My strength of love as supremely perfect beings which, however, had to move within My eternal will in order to remain perfect. However, the fact that they once misused their free will and fell away from Me increased My love for these beings, and since they irrevocably have to enter My will again in order to regain the lost perfection I constantly reveal My will to them …. I give the beings in the stage of free will as a human being the commandment of love for Me and their neighbour, so that they will find their way back to Me again, so that they will assimilate themselves to the original being again from which they once took their origin, so that they will become blissful beings again which they were from the beginning ….
Amen

Outpouring of the spirit ….
B.D. 5059 from February 10th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
I want to work in you and unfold My love and strength in you, I want to put you into a state where you feel My presence and are blissfully happy …. I Myself want to work in you, that is, My strength shall make you alive, it shall give life to your soul, for without My working in you it is dead, although the human being is alive. I want to awaken the soul to life, and since it cannot live without Me I Myself must be able to be in you, which also results in My working in you. But I Myself am spirit and can therefore only be with you in spirit. You don’t need to experience Me in a physically visible way and yet I can have taken abode in you and give you life through My influence. And then you can also speak of My presence with conviction, for you bear obvious evidence of it: inner enlightenment through the spirit …. you mature in inner realization, you gain knowledge which can never be conveyed to you by a human being unless the same process has already taken place in him and he then imparts the knowledge thus gained to you. Thus My spirit awakens you humans to life, but My spirit is eternally inseparable from Me, and consequently, anyone who has been enlightened by My spirit must have received the light from Me Myself, he must have allowed My working within himself, which, in turn, is only possible if love indwells the people in whom I Myself want to work through My spirit. Without love the spirit from Me can never express itself, without love the divine voice in the human being falls silent, and without love there is also no understanding for what is conveyed to a person by a spiritually awakened fellow human being. For My spirit is an unheard-of fire of love, full of strength and effect, yet only ever when it is in its element, when it awakens in a heart which is capable and willing to love, otherwise the spirit withdraws and completely shuts itself off from everything ungodly in a person.
Thus, when the outpouring of the spirit is spoken of it always means closest union with Me so that My working can take place in the human being, so that I take care of the human being Myself and bring about his realization, that I make him a knowing human being who moves in fullest truth, who then purposefully travels his earthly path looking upwards, who turns away from the world and strives towards the spiritual kingdom because it became bright in him and he recognized the spiritual kingdom as his true home, which he now strives towards with all his strength …. He becomes alive in his wanting, thinking and acting …. He consciously works on himself in order to shape himself such that he can constantly unite with Me because My working in him makes him happy and he now no longer wants to separate himself from Me. Thus My working in him is evident when the human being strives upwards; then he no longer resists Me and accepts Me into his heart, and then he will be permeated by My love and My strength, he will stand in recognition and the spiritual darkness will have departed from him forever ….
Amen

Plan of salvation based on free will ….
B.D. 5060 from February 11th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
My plan of salvation has been determined from eternity but it is based on the human being’s free will. However, I do not determine the human will in order to bring it into line with My eternal plan but I insert it into the human being’s free will, thus he develops in accordance with this will. For I have known about him since eternity how he will be at the end of this redemption period despite most favourable influence and all possibilities for a change of will. In no way do I have a determining influence. Completely free will brings about all events on this earth. Everything in the entire universe does not happen arbitrarily but every event is based on My wisdom which directs everything in order to lead the being to the highest possible development, in order to achieve a change of will which is the purpose and aim of earthly life. Even the knowledge on My part about the failure of earthly life for so countless souls does not prevent the scheduled course of the individual redemption periods, for the souls have to come to a certain decision, although they also have to fail and exhaust a new possibility in order to reach the aim for once. Free will necessitates such possibilities, which I have very well recognized since eternity and which is why the course of development of every individual soul is planned to the smallest purpose, irrespective of success. For I cannot determine success, although I know about it when I want to know it. But for Me eternity is like a moment, and what is not achieved in one period of development can be achieved in ever-repeating phases of redemption, yet it always has to proceed according to plan, because free will cannot be eliminated, but just as My love and wisdom can never withdraw or conceal itself either and this always creates the most favourable opportunities to develop free will in the right way. The plan of salvation from eternity only pursues the souls’ redemption and their return to Me …. When I reach the aim is of no significance to Me but extremely significant to you, because for you humans, as long as you are still imperfect, the concept of time plays a part, thus you can be in an unhappy state for an infinitely long time and thus have to live through periods of suffering which end with the moment of your soul’s redemption, the healing, which is My plan of eternity and which I would like to constantly promote if your will does not oppose Me. The healing process can be extremely lengthy but it can also take place in a short time, which, however, you determine yourselves. And even if I know about the success or failure this does not determine My eternal plan of salvation, for I am eternally unchanging, and what My wisdom once recognized as right will also be carried out by My strength of love, because it irrevocably leads to the aim, even if eternities pass by …. One day the world will be redeemed and all beings will be united with Me, because nothing can eternally resist My love ….
Amen

Explaining the various characters of the Word-recipients ….
B.D. 5061 from February 12th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
My child, accept My Words without objection and allow them to take effect on you …. A task has been assigned to you which can only be accomplished by a human being who establishes contact with the spiritual kingdom with heart and mind, who thus takes the state of people’s feelings on earth into account but desires the spiritual realm himself, and this is necessary in the last days before the end where people have broken off almost all contact with Me, where faith in a spiritual life and a spiritual future is almost entirely lost. I know of humanity’s desperate situation and, in order to provide it with help, will have to resort to means which promise success without impairing free will. Thus one such means is the transmission of the pure truth from above through receptive mediators, but who can also be called mediators insofar as they gain easier access to people’s hearts due to their personality. They shall, after all, win those over who are still distant from Me …. You should really consider that people striving towards Me are already within a sphere where My working is easily recognised but that people who are still distant from Me are outside of this sphere and that it is therefore necessary for someone to have access to both spheres in order to speak as they understand it and yet also about that which has originated from Me. I know why I chose you for this mission because I know the human hearts which first scrutinise everything intellectually before they accept it as their own, and whose intellect should therefore not be ignored in order to be able to influence the souls successfully. The redeeming work for such people is considerably more difficult yet not hopeless, for My grace works where it finds an open ear so that My gift of grace can also touch the heart. Thus it is My will that My working shall also be mentioned where the world is still exerting a strong influence.
During the last days proclaiming My Gospel in the hitherto usual way will reap little success, if it is not entirely impossible. People who live in the world and are also in touch with worldly people are not as quickly rejected if they speak on My instructions than those who have little contact because their spiritual sphere is already so different that worldly people cannot put themselves in that position and are more likely to feel repelled than attracted by it. These spheres are formed by emotions, which therefore can be good or bad, full of love or lacking love. It is always a person’s character which shapes the sphere in which his soul is subsequently moving. However, if I assign a mission to a person who wants to be of service to Me, then I Myself will form the type of sphere surrounding him which corresponds to this mission, in which My willing servant can then be successfully active for Me and My kingdom …. which, however, is not to say that I avail Myself of a person who lives entirely outside spiritual spheres, since he would be unable to work in My name, but I spread a veil across the light which would break through too brightly and radiantly and which would cause precisely the kind of confusion amongst worldly people which would interfere with winning one of them over. I select people for such a mission who have voluntarily become My Own, who were seized by My love and who I can now use as a tool in the last days before the end. I Myself work in and through them …. And this shall be your explanation to the question why all people don’t have the same emotions and nevertheless an abundance of strength becomes effective which is not obvious …. For I look into the heart and know a person’s will, to which degree he is turned towards Me, and according to this will is his calling for My kingdom ….
Amen

Re-incarnation ….
B.D. 5062 from February 13th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
You are given a light from above where it is still dark within you. And My messengers are instructed to make the light accessible to all who desire it. Whatever contributes towards the enlightenment of spirit will be conveyed to them, so that they will indeed be able to distinguish between truth and error and always recognise the One Who is truth Himself. You, My earthly children, are destined for the greatest bliss I can prepare for you; but the degree of beatitude will always correspond to your will, for this is not determined by Me. Utmost bliss, however, also makes utmost demands on your will, for in order to achieve childship to God, which assures you the Father’s inheritance, you have to be perfect too, just as your Father in heaven is perfect. I expect much of you earthly children, but I give infinitely more still. What I expect of you is complete subordination to My will and transformation to a high degree of love. For the degree of bliss in eternal life can differ considerably, it always depends on the degree of love you kindle and activate within yourselves.
Hence this activity of love determines the degree of maturity and therefore also the degree of bliss, so it follows that childship to God requires a life of utter love on earth, so that the human being’s nature will be changed into love, into My image, into My true child, for whom I have prepared all delights, as I have promised. The soul’s childship to God has to be the result of a single life on earth, because this high degree of maturity cannot be achieved in the kingdom of the beyond anymore, albeit even there a being will still be able to attain an undreamt of abundance of light. Nevertheless, a being of light can, if it re-incarnates in the flesh on earth for the purpose of a leadership mission, acquire its childship to God, but this necessitates an extremely sorrowful and difficult earthly life as well as a redeeming activity on earth, which was the reason of its repeated embodiment. Only beings with a high degree of light will undertake a repeated incarnation on earth, but purely for love of misguided human beings, whom they want to help in times of greatest spiritual hardship.
Alternatively, every light-receiving soul in the spiritual kingdom can also be called blissful to a degree, and this bliss suffices to trigger its will into helping beings who still languish in darkness, whose condition they know and want to remedy. No soul of light lacks this willingness to help, because receipt of light presupposes love, and love constantly wants to express itself. Every loving deed in the spiritual kingdom increases the beings’ beatitude, and such a being will never ever desire to return to earth, after all it recognises a vast sphere of activity for its strength of love and also feels the ever increasing abundance of light and happiness. But no being will be returned to earth against its will, since this would contravene My divine order. Beings of light, even of a low degree, do not harbour this will, only exceptionally elevated spirit beings descend to earth in oder to carry out the above mentioned mission. As soon as a soul has but a modest degree of awareness it also knows about the opportunity of further development in the spiritual kingdom, for then its love has been kindled or it would still be completely in the dark …. But if a soul is still spiritually blind then its desire to return to earth might surface, but never for the purpose of spiritual maturing, it is only drawn to earth by its desire for matter which I, on My part, will not comply with …. For this desire can be more easily overcome in the kingdom of the beyond than on earth, and without the surmounting of this desire there will be no light, no spiritual progress.
Anyone who neglected to acquire a tiny spark of understanding on earth, which thus assumes deeds of love, will also be in profound darkness in the beyond, and to return him to earth would not be an act of mercy but an infringement of My eternal order, which pursues constant progress and excludes any kind of regression due to My will. However, in this case re-incarnation would be an unfair compensation for the soul’s failure on earth, it would not be love and mercy on My part but a huge burden for the soul, which would have to accept the responsibility for a second time without any guarantee of achieving its goal. And it would not achieve its goal either, for repeated embodiment would understandably present it with far greater demands in order to balance the exceptional privilege, whereas its will would once again remain free …. Thus it would have to undergo a test of will twice, which would mean the same as if I would double a person’s life time on earth and thus bypass an existing natural law …. Also, having failed on earth once, a soul would be constrained and its will weakened by My adversary again, since the path to Me, to the divine Redeemer, is blocked by Satan by means of the world, since it will have desired it as well as matter and will receive what it desires …. Only the being’s will is decisive at all times, but this very will is not interested in embodiment on earth once the soul has but a glimmer of knowledge.
However, a soul which is still lost in utter darkness will not be allowed to re-incarnate because My wisdom knows of the danger and frequent futility of a repeated earthly progress and My love does not support regression but only advancement. My eternal law is development and progress …. I only encourage opportunities for higher development which, admittedly, could also be unsuccessful but then only due to the being’s will. Regression can only be caused by the being’s will, never by My will. Individual instances of re-incarnation to earth happen for a special reason but do not justify the assumption that every soul will be able to return to earth deliberately once it has completed its path unsuccessfully or with only slight success. Yet the fact that the soul repeatedly incarnates itself is certain, because it has to continue its higher development in the kingdom of the beyond and this always necessitates that it carries out its designated activity in a new embodiment on one of the countless creations which all serve as places to mature for the spiritual essence. But activity and tasks are of a different nature than on earth and cannot be explained to you humans either, merely the principles of redemption and maturity always consist of loving service.
Countless possibilities are at My disposal to beneficially influence the souls which had departed from earth in a still immature state. Life on this earth had promised exceptional success which, if unused, can never be made up again such that the beings can re-incarnate on earth any number of times; this is why the teaching of re-incarnation is misleading; thus isolated, justified instances should not lead to the assumption that every soul will re-incarnate on this earth, which would be far more detrimental than advantageous for the soul. The soul’s free decision of will has to be made on earth, and with the help of the divine Redeemer Jesus Christ it is certainly possible to do so during one earthly life …. Anyone who rejects Him has forfeited an exceptional grace and has to struggle in the beyond until he acquires the understanding and still accepts His help over there.
Jesus’ death on the cross is of such enormous significance for the salvation of all souls that it only requires the human will to become redeemed, but a will that fails also has to accept the consequences: indescribably difficult higher development in the spiritual realm or descent into the abyss, with the result of a repeated path through the whole of material creation …. a re-incarnation of undesirable consequence …. a tormenting state of endless duration until the human state has been reached again, which will then gives him a new opportunity to make his free decision of will. No being will be lost forever, but the time it takes to achieve beatitude is determined by the human being’s will itself. Yet the law of eternal order will remain, for it is based on My wisdom and love which will never change ….
Amen

Individuality of each soul ….
B.D. 5063 from February 14th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
When My creative will became active My wisdom also realised the accomplishment of all that which My love and strength had created; I saw the fallen spiritual beings’ process of development as well as the partial relapse into the abyss, I saw a countless multitude of originally created beings fighting each other in the universe. I saw satanic actions everywhere in the spiritual kingdom and in the earthly-material creations …. I saw the rise and fall, I saw the constantly changing shapes and My wisdom recognised most clearly that the huge redemption work will be successful one day, which delighted My love and thus My will was incessantly active. I foresaw the achievement an eternity ago …. yet I also saw the countless originally created spirits which would remain opposed to Me and need an infinitely long time before they surrender to Me without resistance. But this did not trouble Me for time does not exist for Me, if only I reach My goal one day. Yet the plan of redemption for these spirits remaining in opposition to Me considerably deviates from the one for the less hardened spiritual beings, for the former require several infinitely long periods of development until their final redemption, and each one signifies a different process of redemption than the preceding one. For the sin keeps increasing the more often free will is misused, and the final stage as a human being also provides the spiritual entity with awareness, because I endow him with intelligence by virtue of which he can distinguish between right and wrong. Before a human being´s soul can be formed the individual soul substances must effectively have travelled through all creations, the soul will have gathered all minute particles which once belonged to a freely spiritually creating original entity, and this original entity receives, as a human being, the self-awareness again which it no longer possessed during the preliminary stages of development. Then the soul will continue to remain a self-aware individual entity in the spiritual kingdom, although it will then work and create in unity with equally mature souls …. It will recognise itself for what it once had been and is incredibly happy in this self-awareness. But the final test of earthly life can, although it is not too difficult, also be failed; in that case My work of redemption has not been possible during one course of development and the being will have to go through a second and far more difficult process of redemption, it must once again take abode in new material creations, the soul will be dissolved again into untold minutely small particles and, depending on its nature, engendered into various shells once more and the path of higher development will start anew.
A soul which deserts Me as a human being increases its sin many times over and must therefore also suffer considerably more than during the individual developmental stages of the previous period. Yet even then My infinite love will be at work again in order to help this soul to ascend, so that, at the end of its earthly progress in the law of compulsion the re-assembled soul can incarnate itself in a body of flesh with the purpose of passing its final test of will on this earth. Although at a later state of maturity this soul can undoubtedly look back upon an entirely different earthly progress than that of the period before, nevertheless it remains the same spiritual being but will only recognise itself as such when it reaches the specific degree of light when it receives its past memory again. Every soul entering the spiritual kingdom after its physical death remains what it is and can continue to ascend constantly higher and, in unity with equally mature spiritual beings, bring happiness to countless beings on earth as well as in the spiritual kingdom; but it always remains the same being and will never lose its self-awareness again. If, however, it descends into the abyss, its thinking will become confused, it no longer recognises itself and if it descends to the lowest point it can also harden into solid matter again, thus starting the process of development in new creations on earth once more. The being only recognises itself during a specific degree of maturity, and this degree of maturity has been attained as soon as the soul is permitted to embody itself as a human being, on account of which the human being is in clear possession of self-awareness which the soul will not lose again unless it descends into profound darkness again, where it can no longer recognise itself for what it is and what it had been. I will collect every spiritual being again which once went astray, I want to regain it in the same condition as it once came forth from Me. I want to draw completely free, supremely perfect angel beings burning with love to My heart and I will achieve this goal even if takes eternities, for My love, wisdom and might is without bounds and My creative will shall never end until even the last spiritual being is redeemed and has become My child ….
Amen

God's joy in the love of His children ….
B.D. 5064 from February 16th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
I truly take pleasure in My earthly children’s love for Me and am always willing to kindle this love for Me ever more, because this also signifies increased beatitude for My children if they unite with Me ever more and receive the evidence of My reciprocated love …. that they hear Me, that they hear My voice within themselves as the most delicious gift. Only love prepares bliss, and therefore it must also be kindled in you, a fire must blaze up in you which spreads light …. your heart must long for unification with Me, for this is love, that you long for union with Me …. Every earthly child which acknowledges Me as creator and father of eternity also wants to be united with Me and thereby increase the strength within itself, it unconsciously longs for the state it was in at the beginning when it still loved Me as a sign of its perfection. It voluntarily left this state, it denounced its love for Me, it turned away from Me and became unhappy, since only love can cause true bliss. But I want to give you purest happiness again, I want to let you taste the delights of My love which, however, also requires your love in return in order to be effective. I want to excite your hearts so that they beat towards Me; I alone want to captivate your senses, I want every thought of yours to be only meant for Me, that you push towards Me and offer your hearts to Me, I want to possess you fully and completely and for all eternity. This is why I want you to let your love for Me flare up, that you turn all your thoughts towards Me, that I am the most desirable thing to you, that you seek Me with all seriousness and, once you have found Me, never ever leave Me out; I want your heart and soul to press towards Me and that I Myself can let My love radiate into you in order to make you blissful beings. And therefore I constantly court your love and rejoice over every child which allows itself to be drawn up by Me to My heart. And My fatherly love will never let go again what has once voluntarily surrendered to Him ….
Amen

The eternal love …. reason for the revelations ….
B.D. 5065 from February 17th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
Recognize the one Who speaks to you as the eternal love Itself, Who reveals Itself to you in order to help you. Don’t doubt, you listeners, that I Myself dwell among you in the word but consider that an exceedingly great spiritual adversity causes Me to reveal Myself to you, that you yourselves are in this adversity because it is close to the end. You walk through your earthly life completely carefree and don’t worry about what will happen to your soul after the death of your body; you only worry about your earthly life and about the preservation and comfort of the body, which is transient, but you don’t pay attention to the imperishable in you. If you knew the dreadful consequences of your attitude then you would also understand how great the spiritual adversity is, and you would also understand that I want to help you find your way out of it. For this reason I try to present to you through revelations what fate you are facing, I try to make you understand why the effect of your wrong attitude cannot be other than an exceedingly agonizing state of suffering in the beyond or even a new banishment into solid matter. I try to inform you through revelations of My eternal plan of salvation so that you will understand why everything exists and that only your eternal salvation is striven for by My will. I Myself come to you and reveal Myself because you don’t believe Me otherwise, because you cannot explain the context to yourselves humanly and intellectually and, in turn, cannot be taught truthfully by human beings either. But you shall recognize Me when I speak to you through the mouth of a human being, but it is only My instrument which I use and speak to you Myself because it is necessary. For there is not much time left until the end …. And especially in the last days My adversary will strongly harass you and try to distract you from the right realization, from the truth, so that you will become completely blind in spirit and safely approach eternal ruin. And because the night around you is so dreadfully dark, I kindle a little light everywhere to illuminate the darkness, and anyone who strives towards the light, who does not evade its effect and flees it, will be enlightened in spirit …. The truth will be revealed to him and the great spiritual adversity will be remedied for him. Therefore I reveal Myself to you again and again, and you should believe that it is I Who speaks to you …. your creator and father of eternity, Who cares for you as My children in danger and whom I therefore want to help before it is too late.
And when I admonish you to love you can very well recognize that eternal love itself speaks to you, for My adversary would truly not urge people to fulfil the fundamental law of love which he himself has transgressed and which he fundamentally opposes …. Only from Me does love emanate, and to Me love always leads back again …. Thus My adversary will not push you towards Me by teaching you love. And thus drop all doubts and unconditionally believe that only eternal love speaks to you if the words are good and full of wisdom, if they ennoble you and turn your thinking towards Me, Who is your most loving father from eternity. If your heart is touched by My word then you have the surest sign of My presence and also the right and the duty to believe what is proclaimed to you through My revelations …. For I am also the eternal truth, the light of eternity, Which shines into all hearts in order to displace the prince of darkness from them. I want to come to you as saviour in spiritual adversity and you should not deny Me entry into your heart, you should open the door wide for Me and let the radiant light fall in, you should dispel the night and walk towards a bright day …. you shall find Me through My revelations and then be relieved of all spiritual distress ….
Amen

Spiritual community …. elevated work ….
B.D. 5066 from February 18th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
Working together will always result in greater success, although every individual person’s work for the spiritual kingdom is blessed and therefore it is also recommended to every one of My children to be constantly active in My vineyard. But as soon as My own join together to serve Me, one will complement the other and be able to help him where the other is too weak. Every activity, whether individually or in unity, is supported by beings of light from the beyond, and therefore you humans are guided in a way which the beings of light recognize as beneficial and which is also successful for the souls of My children. You all have to mature together, you have to learn to recognize yourselves, one of you has to serve the other as an example, but just as one of you should draw the other’s attention to his faults, yet in love and brotherly care, so that one helps the other to ascend. I need an army of strong fighters who will stand up for Me before the world when a confession is demanded of you. And these forces should already unite more firmly beforehand so that one or the other is not attacked and made unable to fight due to My adversary’s influence, so that one or the other does not slacken in his spiritual striving because he lacks every opportunity for activity, which he often does not recognize on his own. The spiritual union of My own also increases the strength of the individual, he sees, as it were, the effect of My grace and strength of love on his brothers and sisters and strives for the greatest possible perfection himself, driven by My spirit of love, which is visibly effective where My own are gathered in My name. But all of you are also given tasks which you should conscientiously fulfil …. to also bring your own surroundings back onto the path of light which they have left or not yet found …. each one should work in his own small circle ….
Amen

Will directed towards God …. shackles of love ….
B.D. 5067 from February 20th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
It is enough for Me that your will is directed towards Me, that you desire the truth and, in order to be able to make contact with Me, strive to become like Me. Then My will is also ready to consider you, and you will effortlessly reach your aim …. the final union with Me, which will secure you light and strength for all eternity. Turning to Me in thought is successful for your soul, for I will not let Myself be called twice, I will come if only one thought of yours is meant for Me. For this thought is already the stretching out of your hands upwards. Your decision of will turns out in My favour, you turn away from My adversary yourselves, and I seize this opportunity to draw you completely to Me because you have given up your resistance as soon as you seek Me in thought.
My kingdom is not of this world …. If you seek Me in your thoughts you consciously leave the earthly world behind you, for the world does not allow thoughts of Me to arise, that is, anyone who is chained in it does not remember Me but is in bondage to the one who rules in the world …. A person who still belongs entirely to the world cannot make contact with Me because I do not exist for him as long as he turns his love towards the world. He can certainly know My teaching but he lacks faith in the truth of this teaching, and thus I do not exist in his thoughts other than an imaginary figure whose existence he lacks all conviction of. But if he seriously tries to fathom Me then he has already detached himself from the world, and then I can also pull him up, then nothing will prevent him from the right realization, then his love will turn to Me Whom he strives to reach. Thus I know when the separation from My adversary is complete and can then also exert My influence, whereas before the will first has to decide to whom it will incline. Again and again I step into a person’s path so that he may take a different direction of thought which does not only apply to the earthly world …. I will make Myself known to him in some way so that he will think about the being Who let him come into being. And once he has arrived at this thought he will not let go of it again, then I will have put a silent shackle over him which, however, will not squeeze him but will constantly let him follow Me without resistance. He no longer wants to release himself from this bondage, he has voluntarily allowed himself to be captured by Me because his will sought Me and I allowed Myself to be found. It is the bondage of love, the strength which flows through him, which emanates from Me and resonates in his heart. And he will never want to escape from this strength of love because it benefits his soul, and this is My ‘grasp’, I hold with My love anyone who merely turns his thoughts to Me, for love is not a constraint because it only works where resistance is abandoned ….
Amen

Practicing love the only task on earth ….
B.D. 5068 from February 21st 1951, taken from Book No. 57
There is only one path to Me which you must take, otherwise My kingdom will remain closed to you, otherwise the path will lead into the abyss. It is the path of love, which absolutely must be taken because it is the only path that leads to Me. To walk the path of love means to accomplish a change of nature in oneself, because at the beginning of the embodiment as a human being self-love predominates, which he must discard if the right love is to come to fruition in him, which characterizes him as a divine creature. It is unselfish neighbourly love which accomplishes this change of nature in you and which therefore must always and constantly be practiced if you want to come close to Me and be accepted into My kingdom, where highest bliss is your lot. Thus the task given to you for the time of your earthly change is to practice love, to always be unselfishly active in love, to give, to help and thus to constantly awaken reciprocal love …. I have not given you another task, for if you fulfil it you will do everything that is necessary to pass the last test of will on earth, for anyone who practices love strives towards Me Myself, Who is eternal love. Only through love will you re-establish the connection with Me which was your original fate, only through love will you become again what you were from the start, divine beings in full possession of strength and light. Love for your neighbour certainly requires a certain amount of self-conquest, because the human being has to sacrifice what he owns, because he has to detach himself from what he himself holds dear in order to give it to his neighbour who is in need. Yet he gains a thousand times more than he gives, for with every work of love he comes closer to Me Myself, with every work of love he reduces the distance from Me, and with every work of love he receives light and strength himself, the emanation of My eternal love. He gives earthly things and receives spiritual things in return until his gained wealth enables him to distribute spiritual things himself and he now already works for Me as My servant, which always first requires profound love for Me and his neighbour. Without love you cannot become blessed, but you all carry the spark of love in your heart and it can very quickly flare up into a bright flame, then it takes hold of everything and constantly gives the flame new nourishment so that it shines brightly and the path to Me is now visible to everyone.
Practice love, divest yourselves of what your fellow human being lacks and consider him to the best of your ability, then the awareness of My presence will also awaken in you, and then you will have exchanged something delicious for what you gave away …. Your love has attracted Me Myself, and the love within you now allows for a union which was not possible before …. love establishes the union with eternal love, which always results in supreme bliss ….
Amen

Prayer in spirit and in truth …. Pious gestures ….
B.D. 5069 from February 22nd 1951, taken from Book No. 57
I take no notice of pious gestures; they are, after all, merely outer ostentatious covers which are intended to conceal the heart from onlookers. Anyone who truly sincerely thinks of Me and speaks to Me with simple, unembellished words considers every ceremony, every external movement or gesture to be strange; the heart does not need it, it takes the straight path to Me and exclaims its distress or its love and adoration of Me and I hear every thought which rises up to Me from the heart. But where an inner feeling is meant to be outwardly recognisable too much value is placed on other people’s opinion, since I Myself have no need of such external testimonies and without them a person’s heart lies openly before Me. In that case you only want to convince your fellow human beings of an apparently intimate relationship with Me, and thus you don’t approach Me with an undivided mind but place too much importance on other people’s judgment. But, in addition, your prayer will also lack depth of feeling, for heartfelt contact with Me lets you forget everything around you but also makes every external gesture seem absurd and derisive.
Therefore, as long as you still outwardly portray what should only move you within you still have not found heartfelt union with Me in your thoughts, which does not allow for external actions, because then you will be so completely seized by Me that you will forget the world around you, that you will be true children of your Father whose love for the Father leaves no space for anything else. You should certainly not forget your fellow human being and always have an open eye and ear for his problems, you should not carelessly ignore him if he comes to you full of grief; you should not neglect him, not be arrogant towards him but humbly stand by him with patience and compassion and do everything in your power to help him for love of him. However, if you desire to enter into heartfelt communication with Me your thoughts should only apply to Me, and nothing of an external nature should disturb or identify this heartfelt bond …. For I want to be prayed to in spirit and in truth and this should happen in private, where no-one is a witness of the communication of heart between Father and child …. And all pretence should fall away from you, for I Am the Eternal Truth and also want to be called upon in all truthfulness ….
Amen

Peace of soul …. presence of God ….
B.D. 5070 from February 23rd 1951, taken from Book No. 57
And you will all find peace, the peace of the soul, which the world is not able to give …. You, who are Mine, if you intimately unite yourselves with Me, who have the will to serve Me and be efficient labourers for Me in My vineyard. This peace will suddenly come over you and you will be inspired by a profound faith, by a faith which will no longer let My presence appear unreal to you but which is so deeply anchored in you that you will always be able to communicate with Me and will never be abandoned by Me. Then the world will no longer disturb you, and My word, which you may constantly receive, will be your substitute for everything that is earthly denied to you. My spirit flows into you without interruption, and the body, too, now subordinates itself to the strength of the spirit, it no longer desires anything and leaves everything to Me when and how I think of it. Then you will have found the peace of your soul which no longer knows its own will but only to fulfil Mine, and which therefore is also continuously active and works with love. What still comes upon you before should not frighten you; the spirits of anger and wrath must be driven out of every heart which longs for peace of mind; a purely spiritual act must take place which often can only be accomplished by great excitement but which is of greatest blessing for the soul. And so that you will then prove yourselves I am always ready to help, which will send you strength and grace from above and show you that I am always present to you and that you are never abandoned. There is nothing I cannot remedy, and there is no adversity which is so great that I would not be master of it. Therefore every earthly worry is superfluous, yet spiritually you should always be concerned and do what I ask of you. Let My word be your guarantee that you belong to My own, for whom I always take care. And therefore believe and do not fear whatever may come upon you; I know about everything and also know why it comes upon you. And nothing happens without My permission. But I can also avert suffering from you and also want to do it so that you believe and always come closer to Me, so that you obviously feel Me and become aware of My constant presence and remain so when the adversity comes upon you which precedes the last end. But then you should work for Me and My kingdom and therefore stand in profound unshakeable faith yourselves, which then will also always be accompanied by profound peace of soul ….
Amen

Gifts of grace …. help to ascend …. love ….
B.D. 5071 from February 23rd 1951, taken from Book No. 57
Where My grace is rejected spiritual ascent is impossible there, although earthly ascent can obviously be recorded, for the forces of darkness immediately intervene where resistance is offered to Me. This is why earthly advantage cannot be described as divine grace, for the world is not My kingdom and My grace is a gift from above, from the kingdom which is not of this world. Receiving My grace means as much as receiving strength directly from Me Myself, which is necessary for spiritual ascent and therefore must never be spurned. But people who don’t believe in Me don’t want to accept the term ‘grace’ either, which they regard as something degrading because they themselves are still of an arrogant spirit. Likewise, they will also reject My great gift of grace, My word, which they don’t believe they need and which therefore only few people utilize as it should be utilized due to its transmission of strength. Spiritual arrogance rebels against the heavenly father’s gift of grace, driven by My adversary who does not want the pure truth to arise and therefore also tries to prevent people from coming into contact with it in every way. Nevertheless, everyone is offered the opportunity to make use of My gift of grace; everyone shall draw strength from it, everyone shall mature in his soul and again and again receive new graces. For this need not be publicly recognizable …. The human being’s rightly guided thinking is likewise a grace on My part, which indeed also has to be consciously accepted, but just as it should also be requested. For again and again desire lets new blessings flow to the human being and makes him resistant to every temptation which still approaches him in great measure who wants to escape from the adversary and find entrance into My kingdom. Again and again the means are used by Me which can bring success if they are used correctly. And therefore the human being’s will itself is decisive as to how far he is in grace, for I am merciful to everyone who does not openly oppose Me. For I only want to promote the spiritual ascent, I want to help My earthly children to liberate themselves from everything that still belongs to the world in a short time; I want to constantly support them as saviour and helper. But I also want them to listen to Me and do what I advise them out of My love, which wants to grasp everything and also does so if it finds no resistance. But anyone who has once felt My love will not miss any opportunity to take possession of grace, for he recognizes its effectiveness and also wants to ascend as soon as he has only recognized Me once and knows about his aim on earth. And this person will also reach his aim and become blissfully happy through My grace ….
Amen

Overcoming matter …. Awakening of the spirit ….
B.D. 5072 from February 24th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
Anyone who is materially-minded and allows matter to dominate his thoughts too much can hardly become aware of the spirit within himself which is in complete opposition to matter. Thus anyone intending to awaken the spirit within him must first have overcome matter, that is, he should no longer be its slave but have become its master. It should no longer control him, he must be able to easily let go of it and thus give it away himself by sharing his material possessions with his needy fellow human being whom he can help by providing him with earthly-material possessions. This process of loving activity towards one’s fellow human being is necessary in order to bring the spirit within alive, because the person will thereby shape himself such that My spirit can become effective in him, since the spiritual spark within is inseparably connected with Me, its eternal Father-Spirit. Understandably, the divine element within the human being, in order to express itself, must respond to something divine, because a connection between perfection and imperfection is impossible. Love, however, shapes that which is imperfect into a divine being. Without love My spirit is unable to make itself known in a human being, the person’s love, however, becomes active towards a fellow human being and thus the former also demonstrates his love for Me and can subsequently also receive My manifestation of love. My strength can flow into him and express itself in the working of the spirit.
Selfless neighbourly love will only ever be practised by someone who has become master over matter, in which case the spirit is able to work in him. As a result I Myself enter into heartfelt contact with him because his spirit is part of Me. Do you now realise what you win if you release yourselves from matter? Do you realise the triviality of earthly goods if you gain Me by letting go of them? You give little and receive infinitely much in return …. the most precious becomes your possession …. My love, which pours into your hearts and grants you riches beyond measure …. Material things are indeed given to you as a test of your will, yet you can use them for beneficial activity …. you can relieve much hardship with it and thus be lovingly active on Earth. Then matter will provide you with spiritual possessions because you use it for doing kind deeds, then it will simply be the means in your hands used in order to attain spiritual treasures, yet only if you give it away, because material and spiritual possessions can never be acquired at the same time as long as the person still allows his heart to be held captive by matter. It has to be conquered, and that is your task on Earth if you want to awaken the spiritual spark in you and thereby also establish contact with Me, if you want to give Me the right to dwell in your heart. But then you will have won everything, then you will only work for the spiritual kingdom, then you will have passed your test of earthly life, for once I have taken abode in you I will not leave you again; then you will be permeated by My spirit and become aspirants for My kingdom which is not of this world …. Then you will return into the Father’s house, to Me, from Whom you once came forth and Who will not rest until you have become His Own forever ….
Amen

View in the realm beyond …. trial faith …. love ….
B.D. 5073 from February 25th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
If you could see into the kingdom which lies beyond earth, which shelters all the souls which are secluded from this earth, then you would only realize how great your responsibility towards the soul is as long as you live on earth. Both the darkness would shake you to the soul, but the kingdom of light would also awaken a desire in you for those realms which you can very well provide for the soul if you live correctly on earth, i.e. if you use your will in the right way when you fulfil your earthly task. But that kingdom must remain closed to you in order not to compulsorily induce you into a way of life, for only free will is decisive for your fate in eternity. Both the kingdom of horror and the kingdom of bliss must remain closed to you, yet often enough you receive knowledge of it through My messengers. You can believe it or not, but as intelligent people you should always reckon with the possibility that what the proclaimers of God’s word teach you is truth, for you cannot prove the opposite either. And thus you should also take this knowledge about life after death in torment or bliss into account in earthly life, you should prepare yourselves such that you will not run the risk of being taken in by the kingdom of darkness. You should try to believe, because such an experimental faith is still better than faithlessness. You should live well, even if you cannot believe that one day there will be retribution for your deeds on earth in the spiritual kingdom. Then faith itself would also come, for it emerges from love. And to be good on earth means to live a life of love. Even if you cannot force yourselves to believe, you can still force yourselves to do good deeds, even if you don’t feel the feeling of love in you at first. You can give, you can help your fellow human beings in every adversity, you can help them with kind words and looks and awaken love in them, and you will feel that it does you good to have done a good deed. Love will also flare up in you, and suddenly your thoughts will no longer be so dismissive of what is demanded of you to believe. For the forces of the beyond will help you to recognize, and only the forces of the kingdom of light which have an influence on a person who strives to be good. The forces of darkness, on the other hand, will always be able to work successfully where people live contrary to My will, who are unkind in words and deeds and therefore also of dark spirit. Faith will still die out in them because darkness seeks to keep their souls and therefore also withholds knowledge from them. But their fate one day is dreadful and yet cannot be averted, because it is again the human being’s free will which creates this fate for itself. Light and darkness will always be in opposition to each other, and this alone should make people think that ignorance of life after death is a state of darkness, whereas the person who firmly and unshakably believes in life after death already possesses a light, for his faith is conviction. And he is also in the light because such faith is the result of love, and love is a fire which radiates light …. And light signifies realization, a knowledge which corresponds to truth ….

Name of Jesus shall not be led in vain ….
B.D. 5074 from February 26th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
My name shall not be taken in vain …. This has been given to you humans as a commandment, the observance of which demonstrates love for Me and its non-observance is counted to you as a sin against Me. For My name shall be holy to you, it shall be held in honour in heaven and on earth. Thus My name can be misused but always to the detriment of the soul of the one who tries to disparage Me. Hence My adversary can also allow himself to be abused and speak of Me in a derogatory way, that is, anyone who does not believe in Me, who denies Me, is My adversary and will also speak of Me in a way which hurts the believing person, and one day he will also have to answer for it, for this is an abuse of My name and testifies to opposition against Me. But I will not hinder him if he misuses My name or uses it as a cover for his piety. But as soon as he uses it as confirmation of a lie, as soon as My adversary tries to gain faith by mentioning My name, you yourselves must check extremely carefully whether you give him cause to resort to this means in order to win you over. You must check yourselves whether you yourselves are attracting the one who wants to ruin you for eternity through all kinds of desires and vices. Then his endeavour is to completely destroy your faith in Me, your faith in the deity in Jesus Christ, in His unlimited might and power and His greater than great love …..
(26.2.1951) My name is exceedingly holy and cannot be pronounced by a spirit of the underworld in its deepest meaning, i.e., it cannot be invoked as the name of God, the highest and most perfect being, because that dark being would then also acknowledge Me Myself as its God and father of eternity. But the name can be mentioned as ‘only name’, and this is a temptation which is often successful. Thus such a being can imagine people under this name but cannot deceive you as God as soon as you ask it to profess itself as God the father or God the son. It should be noted that every dark being will give way as soon as the name of Jesus is held up to it in living faith in Him as God’s son and redeemer of the world …. Every evil spirit gives way to Jesus’ deity, but the name, which is only lightly invoked as a name, is ineffective, just as, conversely, a being of the underworld can also adopt the name Jesus without wanting to introduce itself as God’s son. The word without the spirit is only a dead word, but you humans should pay attention to the spirit and not to the dead letter …. Everything that is true must have life; a being which is in the night of death will never comprehend the full truth and thus also not the exceedingly great holiness of My name, thus it will also utter My name completely without realization, certainly in order to deceive people but unaware of where the deception lies, for it only utters a false name in order not to need to mention its own name, but it cannot grasp at all whose name it utters. Nevertheless, My name can be held up to such a being in profound faith in Me and it will flee the light and no longer oppress the human being. But you humans have to carry out the test yourselves …. you have to know whether you unite with Me so deeply and intimately that you allow Me Myself to be present in you. Then you will not have to fear any deception by dishonest spiritual beings …. And if you feel distressed or doubt Me, then call upon My name with faithful trust and deep devotion and I will chase every dark being away from you because you use the weapon I have recommended to you …. For no being will be able to withstand My name if it is not yet redeemed ….
Amen

The housefather‘s care for His servants …. vineyard work ….
B.D. 5075 from March 1st 1951, taken from Book No. 57
I am love Itself, and love cannot deny you anything unless it would harm your soul. You must imagine My greater than great and infinite love if you become fickle in believing that I will help you when your trust is low and you are anxious in earthly adversity. I will not leave My own in adversity but will always release them from it when the time comes. But the fact that I let you get into earthly adversity is not arbitrary but a concern for your salvation of soul …. as well as a wise foresight of what will ease your path of life in order to be able to serve Me unhindered. You have entered My service and as My servants you are also left to the care of your lord. And I will always take care of you such that you can fulfil your service, otherwise I would truly be a bad householder. And I need you …. I need your work for Me and My kingdom, because salvation shall still be brought to many souls in spiritual adversity. Often you lack faith in it, often you become lukewarm and still consider the world too important, often you are doubtful about your important task, and then earthly adversities have to come again and again which strengthen your faith in Me and give you increased impetus for spiritual work. For it will have to be done ever more diligently the closer it gets to the end. And the fact that it is approaching the end is something I want to remind you of again and again …. It is only the calm before the storm which makes you become more indifferent at the moment, which sinks quiet doubts into your heart that the world will assert itself and that everything spiritual could be unreal. It is only a short delay, a short time, which shall be used to the utmost by My servants. And so that they can work unhindered, so that their work in My vineyard will not become a burden but a joy, I will take every earthly burden upon Myself and look after My servants like a good father looks after his children. And trusting in this you should not be anxious and timid, for everything is subject to Me and I can truly direct all events in such a way that they are a blessing for the individual. You should obviously recognize My concern and always become aware of My love, and you should repay Me for My love by eagerly carrying out what I have called you to do, by trying to supply your fellow human beings with what I offer you from above, because it is necessary that people are fed with nourishment from above which alone gives their souls strength and knowledge. You should offer them the bread of heaven which you receive from Me yourselves, you should distribute in love to your neighbour what My love gives to you …. Then you will work on My behalf, for the blessing of your fellow human beings, then you will be My true servants who can always be certain that I will take care of them temporally and also eternally ….

Hardship of unbelievers on entry into the beyond ….
B.D. 5076 from March 2nd 1951, taken from Book No. 57
You all should help with the redemption of misguided souls. Everyone who believes in Me and thus also in the soul’s life after death, should try to convey this belief to his fellow human beings, too. Then he will do a work of merciful love for others, for he will save such souls from death. If you knew how much easier the souls’ fate will be if they have but a glimmer of faith when they pass from this earth, you would do anything to kindle this spark in yourselves, and the stronger it is the brighter will be the soul on entry to the kingdom of the beyond. Anyone who has faith himself should not rest until he has won his fellow human being over to the faith. He should work diligently and will thereby acquire a great reward, for the souls he has gained will thank him a thousand fold.
To soothe spiritual hardship is a true labour of love, the effects of which will extend into eternity. And spiritual hardship is experienced by all those people who lack faith, who are not convinced of an utterly perfect Being, who do not believe that they will be accountable to a Judge at the end of their earthly life, who thoughtlessly live in the world ignoring their task of developing their soul and who have not reduced their guilt of sin, which was the reason for their earthly life, but even increased it, because they fell prey to My adversary who wants to corrupt them forever. These human beings suffer severe hardship, yet their fellow human beings’ love is able to help them. Participate in Christ’s act of Salvation and try to enlighten your fellow human beings, since you know of the great love and mercy of the One Who has created you.
Do not portray Me to them as a punishing God but as a loving Father Who recalls His children into the Father’s house which they had voluntarily left. And help them to regain their faith, then you will acquire a substantial reward for yourselves, for you will accomplish a work in My vineyard which I will truly not leave unrewarded since I, after all, will regain My children, for whom I long and whose love I constantly invite. Help Me to regain these children, so that I can make them eternally happy with My love ….

The Lord's return …. Present time …. Witnesses of the new earth ….
B.D. 5077 from March 2nd 1951, taken from Book No. 57
You all shall be witnesses of My power and glory, you shall live to see My return, partly in spirit and partly in the flesh, for the time is coming to an end and it will come to pass as I have always and constantly proclaimed. You shall experience My return and bear witness of it in the paradise of the new earth …. For I will move those who remain faithful to Me onto the new earth, where they shall also proclaim My Word as they do now on My instruction …. I know who is suitable to do so and know full well how to protect My servants from the destruction, I will endow My disciples of the last days with extraordinary strength to enable them to successfully attend to their office, so that they will courageously fight all those who are hostile to Me and who also extend their hatred to My Own. And not one of them will pass away from earth until his mission has been accomplished. The last on this earth, however, shall be the first on the new earth, where their task will be the same …. To proclaim My Word, albeit in a different manner, for it will be gladly and longingly accepted, it will be recognised for what it is …. as the Father’s evidence of love, Who wants to give pleasure to His children.
They will all recognise My voice when I speak through you to people. For they will have all passed their ordeal on this earth and remained faithful to Me. Hence their reward will also be substantial and pleasing, a harmonious life in the paradise of the new earth, which no person can yet imagine but which is granted to them so that My might and glory will manifest itself. And I Myself will be in the midst of them …. I will come in the clouds to bring them home and stay with them, because due to their demonstrated loyalty during the last battle of faith they will have become My children. For they will fearlessly confess Me, they will testify of Me without having seen Me. For this reason they will also be allowed to see Me in full glory before the very end. And what I proclaim will fulfil itself …. I will return, and you will live to see it ….
You do not yet believe that the time is so close at hand, that you will have to experience the horrors of the last days, and that this earth will be destroyed with My permission. You do not yet believe that the proclamations by seers and prophets concern the present time and that you humans of this time will experience significant things which no person can imagine, for this earth has never yet exhibited such. But humanity will soon watch the events with horror and bewilderment which will make an early disintegration of earth believable, and then it will rapidly progress towards the ultimate end. Yet My chosen people will survive the time because it is My will, and because even this time shall have its witnesses who will be selected to speak of it, so that My might and glory will become evident amongst the human generation’s descendants on the new earth. For it will have to be preserved as tradition for the descendants, because even then a time will come again when sin will be prevalent and I will be ignored. Then their testimony shall warn and remind people what fate will await those who completely forget about Me …. Then they shall be told about the downfall of the old earth and the Last Judgment which decided over life and death, over happiness and damnation ….
Amen

Prerequisite for truth: love – desire for truth – Free will ….
B.D. 5078 from March 3rd 1951, taken from Book No. 57
If people lack the right realization it is always a sign that they also lack the warmth of love, the fire which radiates the light …. Anyone who desires the truth will be supplied with it, because I will not leave such desire unfulfilled. Therefore, anyone who does not know the truth has never looked for it either, because I, as the eternal truth Myself, also allow Myself to be found by the seeker. Every person who intellectually seeks to fathom something certainly believes that he desires the truth; however, his intellect cannot achieve it, the heart has to be involved, and this means that I Myself have to be called upon for support, because then I will express Myself through the heart and convey the pure truth to the seeker. Without love and desire for truth, without My support, a person will never attain realization, and therefore you can very easily recognize the fellow human being’s relationship to Me, even if he has a teaching activity …. You, who are taught by Me Myself, who receive My word from above, have extensive knowledge and can certainly speak of true realization. Therefore you will also notice how much error is spread in the world, you will clearly and distinctly recognize it as error, and you will want to present your gained knowledge to those who are in error …. You will also be able to do so because I Myself support you, because I want the pure truth to find its way in amongst people. But stay away from places where people insist too much on their knowledge, for you won’t achieve much there because the will for the pure truth no longer exists but they only want their knowledge to be the right one. You would have a difficult time there if I did not support you by putting words into your mouth with which you can make them suspicious. They will not be able to answer you with real wisdom but only make use of learned words which are not quite clear to them themselves if you desire information about them. And yet, truth is accessible to every human being, it merely requires the will to know it. However, where the will is bound by presenting a spiritual good as truth and making its recognition obligatory, pure truth can hardly find its way in, for the human being is unable to recognize that he thereby hands himself over to the adversary who wants to have his tribute paid …. darkening of the human being’s spiritual state …. If a heart full of love, desire for truth and a completely free decision of will are required to attain the right knowledge, to possess the pure truth, then it can be seen from this how rarely people live in truth, for these prerequisites for it are rarely present, which will one day be obvious. Humanity walks along in complete blindness and could put itself into possession of the pure truth with the full inner conviction of what is conveyed to it as truth from above directly or through messengers. Yet love is increasingly growing cold amongst people, and this means that truth is also increasingly rare to find, because truth is inconceivable without love, because it is only given to the one who lives in love ….

Serious exhortation concerning the near end ….
B.D. 5079 from March 4th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
The time of earthly change will soon be over for you humans, for you are approaching an extraordinary event which only a few people will survive. And this event has been set as a landmark for eternity, as the end of one redemption epoch and the beginning of a new one. Thus the people of this earth will have to expect a sudden end of their physical life, and their continued existence will only depend on the human being’s will, for faithfulness to God alone guarantees continued life, yet only a few will muster the will to do so, and only for these few will there be a continuation of life in the paradise of the new earth, while all others will suffer death, physically and also spiritually, to a certain extent in accordance with their will, which demanded matter, which will now be given to them …. which will be given to the spiritual as a cover, to permanent torment. You humans don’t believe in an imminent end of this earth, yet again and again you are told so that you will still make use of the short time and once seriously occupy yourselves with the thoughts of what fate you are facing. You humans create and work for your earthly well-being and will not be allowed to enjoy your material possessions for much longer …. You humans only live an earthly life and yet have its downfall so close at hand …. You humans research and ponder and try to solve problems, yet you are only ever occupied with worldly questions. But you don’t think about what comes afterwards and don’t ask about it. And thus no answer can come to you. And yet, again and again you will be informed by God through messengers of the idle time of your life, and again and again the near end will be presented to you. But you do not believe it, and the few who believe it will be ridiculed and scorned. But irrevocably the day will come which means the destruction of everything you can see. The day of the end of the old earth and the downfall of all life on and above the earth. An earth period is coming to an end, but you humans cannot calculate the hour of the end, even if you believe it. Yet again and again you are told that you only have a short time left until this hour. And you listen to it and doubt it …. Your earthly life is at stake and also eternal life …. Take these words into your hearts and process them in your thoughts, and do not be surprised by the day which will suddenly arrive and snatch you from the midst of the world’s joyful frenzy. And if you cannot believe in the end, then imagine a sudden recall from earthly life, whether you would then be able to survive? Believe that life does not end with the day of death but that you can create another life for yourselves or even fall prey to spiritual death, which nevertheless does not mean extinction but only vegetation in endless agony and darkness. And God wants to protect you from this fate, Who wants to be a loving father to all His creations and finds little faith in them …. Again and again His word comes from above and calls to you humans: You don’t have much time left, therefore use it well and work and create while it is still day, for the night is coming when you will no longer be able to work ….
Amen

Struggle of faith …. confession only possible where there is love ….
B.D. 5080 from March 5th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
Not the intellect will be able to enlighten you about the value of the doctrines of faith if you have to decide whether to acknowledge or reject Me, but only a heart willing to love is capable of judging what corresponds to the truth. In the end, however, only few people will be filled with love for Me and their neighbour, for love has grown cold amongst people. And likewise, only few will confess Me before the world, because the intellect of those who live without love will tear everything apart and attack every teaching which points to Me as their creator and sustainer. And since until now the teachings of faith have only been presented to people in an unclear way it will be easy to portray them as untenable and to persuade people to reject them. Only love alone can give them the conviction to be in the right knowledge, for the loving human being has My support. I enlighten his spirit and he also has the will to remain faithful to his God and father from eternity because he has recognized Him as the origin of himself and also as the final aim which he eagerly strives towards …. To confess Me before the world therefore means to live a life of love at the same time, otherwise the human being would also lack the strength to resist. Anyone who has recognized Me also confesses Me to his fellow human beings, because love simultaneously results in the recognition of Myself and strength to resist. For him there will be no unresolved problems, to him everything will appear sunlit and clear what others believe to be incomprehensible and cannot be represented. Therefore there will be a great apostasy from faith in general, because every person will have to take a stand and publicly decide for or against religious doctrines which have Me as their content and therefore are to be eradicated. A difficult battle will be waged against My own, against all those who do not want to give Me up and yet have not penetrated deeply enough into the truth; and only a life of love will make the decision easy for them …. But love has grown cold among people, and accordingly faith has also become lifeless …. But a dead faith will not assert itself, it will be eradicated very quickly and the flock, whose shepherd I Myself am, will become ever smaller. Yet My sheep recognize My voice, they follow their shepherd. Blessed are those who want to belong to Me, who take all persecutions upon themselves and stand firm for love of Me …. I will guide them like a good shepherd towards the right stable, I will not let any go astray but I will also gladly accept the sheep into My flock who followed My call because they recognized My voice …. who accept or revive their faith when they see My strength of faith. Whoever still turns to Me in the last days before the end I will accept with joy and also enlighten his spirit so that he will recognize the love, wisdom and omnipotence of the one Who is to be denied, Whom the understanding of the intelligent does not want to accept but Who reveals Himself to His own who believe in Him and become blessed through faith ….
Amen

"Faith moves mountains …."
B.D. 5081 from March 7th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
You only need one thing: to revive your faith to that strength which no longer allows fear and discouragement. Then your life will be an easy one, for then you will overcome everything through this faith which makes you direct recipients of My strength and then everything will be possible for you. Nothing is impossible for Me and My strength and therefore also for you, if you make use of My strength precisely through strong faith. You are a part of Me and equally powerful to Me to the extent that you join Me; as soon as you don’t stand apart but remain united with Me My strength must also flow through you and you must also be able to use this strength. Only your own doubt, your ignorance and your unbelief prevent you from using the strength from Me, which is at your unlimited disposal. “You will be able to move mountains, if only you believe ….” These words are not a figure of speech, but fullest truth. You are divine creatures in which I want to and can work if you do not oppose Me. My working, however, means to let the divine characteristics emerge again which slumber in you as a part of Myself but which you do not develop because your faith is weak. But to work extraordinarily in you without your faith would be harmful for your soul. You have to let faith come alive in yourselves, and you can also do this if you unite with Me through loving activity, for faith comes alive through love. Therefore, if you have little faith love is not yet properly kindled in you, selfish love still dominates you too much and you are not yet united with Me, which is why you don’t fully trust Me either, which is why your faith is easily shaken.
Love gives life to faith, but you can practice love by divesting yourselves of what is dear to you and make your fellow human being happy with it by giving yourselves in order to receive something extremely valuable …. a strong faith which no longer lets you doubt My love, My wisdom and My omnipotence. And the more you change into love the more intimately you unite with Me, then you will be aware of My presence and now work and want with Me, thus everything you now tackle will also be possible for you to accomplish. Then you will only need to want and all elements will obey you, no power will be able to resist you anymore, for through a strong faith you make use of Me Myself, and you know that My strength and might is unlimited and that everything must and will obey My will, which is now also yours. Then you will also be able to move mountains, for there is no resistance to My strength and you will also be able to defeat it if you let your faith come alive through love such that I Myself can now work in you ….
Amen

Fellow labourers in Christ’s work of Redemption …. ‘Go ye therefore, and teach …. ’
B.D. 5082 from March 10th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
The work you accomplish for Me and My kingdom always involves participating in Christ’s work of Redemption. It is a continuation of what Jesus, the man, started on earth, it involves the spreading of the Gospel on His instruction and leading people to Him, the divine Redeemer Himself, and therefore it is a return to Me, the origin of all that has been created. This participation in the redemption work is so important and so extremely beneficial because influencing people directly from above has become impossible. Hence mediators, who are in contact with the spiritual kingdom as well as with people on earth and are thus able to convey the spiritual knowledge from above to them, are required to spread the Gospel …. This is the task of those who want to serve Me, who place themselves at My disposal as co- workers and whom I therefore send into the world with the instruction ‘Go ye therefore, and teach all nations’, i.e., speak wherever the opportunity presents itself, inform them of Me and My direct working in all of you whom I send to cross your path …. Take your work seriously as there is not much time left. And I Myself will smooth your every way so as not to hinder your work, so that you will always have the opportunity to work on My instructions for the benefit of your fellow human beings. So far you can only do the groundwork, for the hour of your public activity has not come as yet. However, you should even do this preliminary work conscientiously and diligently, and you should always want to do it, then you will also have the strength and opportunity to work for Me. For many people are hungry and live in want, they thirst for nourishment for the soul, and I Myself direct all threads and convey the bread of heaven to those who desire it. I give in abundance …. Hence you, too, should strive to distribute the delectable gift to those who do not approach Me directly and need to be fed by you if I don’t want to let them perish. This is the redemptive work which, in a manner of speaking, makes you Jesus’ fellow labourers, His followers and His helpers, for countless souls suffer great adversity. Whatever you do in order to spread My Word will be blessed by Me and will result in copious reward, even if, from an earthly point of view, it is not obvious to you. You must more or less feel like My labourers who only accomplish the Lord’s will. But you will feel My will in your heart, and whatever your heart urges you to do, you should instantly comply with, for it is My voice which speaks to you, which impels you to work for Me and My kingdom. Do not fear earthly hardship or earthly disadvantage but always trust that I know your every worry and will remedy it at the right time. Anyone who works for Me is most reliably taken care of, it is just not obvious so that the work for Me is not done in a compulsory fashion but voluntarily instead if it is to be successful for eternity …. Someone who expects reward is not suitable for redemptive work which only requires profound love for Me and his fellow human being if it is to be effective. You don’t have much time left, therefore you should ever more eagerly fulfil My will, which will forever consist of carrying My Gospel into the world …. of instructing those who lack knowledge and enlightening those who are misguided. For only the truth will have a redemptive effect, and therefore you should spread the truth which I convey to you humans from above because I love you and want to deliver you from the bondage of darkness.
Amen

Supply of revelations proof of reality of the spiritual realm ….
B.D. 5083 from March 13th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
The necessity of My direct influence on you arises from the fact that faith in general has become rotten, that people find it difficult to believe what they are taught by the church and therefore reject both truth and falsehood at the same time if they are not helped in that the truth is conveyed to them in an unusual way and they can now decide for themselves to accept or reject it. People are to be excused if they are of good will and they are offended by educated teachings of faith which instinctively arouse resistance in them. However, they are not able to judge for themselves in order to recognize wrong and right teachings, although a loving person can have the right feeling for it. But the world has such a powerful effect on people that everything spiritual seems unreal to them, and therefore it is necessary to also let the spiritual become a ‘reality’, thus to convey an obvious proclamation, a divine revelation, to people which can make them believe in the spiritual kingdom. Through the revelations they receive clarifications, and these then also enable an examination of truth and error, which coexist in the world, which have to be recognized. The supply of revelations is a proof of the reality of the spiritual kingdom …. I Myself take care of people who want to believe but who are not touched by the church’s teachings in such a way that they can believe …. What I demand of people to believe is well accepted with good will and only little knowledge. I want to impart the latter to those who have good will, and if they now listen to the teachings and act accordingly they will also learn to recognize and be able to believe. The spiritual kingdom is not so unreal if only a glimmer of realization is present, and it becomes ever more real the higher the person’s realization rises. I Myself reveal Myself to people, I establish the connection with the earthly kingdom, with the person who also carries the desire for a connection with Me within himself. This person then serves Me as a mediator for all other people who are certainly capable of teaching but who do nothing to make contact with teaching forces because the spiritual kingdom is not yet a concept of reality for them. But the mediator can provide them with proof if they desire it, the mediator can convey spiritual results to his fellow human being, the origin of which is the spiritual kingdom …. the origin of which is Me Myself …. And thus people receive revelations from Me, and what they now believe has become their conviction; they now know what is truth and what is error, they recognize that not all doctrines of faith may be rejected, they know about the correlation and now become living representatives of what has become their conviction. And once they have recognized Me Myself as the source of all truth they will also speak for Me and likewise want to introduce their fellow human beings to knowledge which comes from the spiritual kingdom and yet is more real than earthly knowledge. Anyone who once stands in the light will no longer want to miss it but will take care that the light sends its rays even into the deepest darkness …. he will relinquish his knowledge because he has recognized it as truth ….

Revelations …. truth and error …. previous knowledge ….
B.D. 5084 from March 14th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
When I reveal Myself I take into account the spiritual state of the person who allows Me to speak to him. The knowledge previously possessed by a recipient of My revelations will always be recognizable, i.e. the way of reproducing what is from Me, what spiritual knowledge he has received from Me, will mostly be in line with his knowledge but nevertheless need not deviate from the pure truth, even if his knowledge was not entirely free from error before. The announcements reach the recipient in such a way that they correspond to the truth purely in terms of content, even though someone who thinks differently can interpret the words as he wants them. The awakened spirit, however, recognizes the truth and will therefore always conclude that he is the right giver, he will recognize the messages as divine revelations. But if a person’s spirit is still unawakened then he will sometimes also consider his own thoughts to be divine revelations, but only if they deviate from the pure truth, because this is My adversary’s means to ensnare people in error, to confuse their thinking and to distort the truth. And for this purpose he again uses such people who fanatically advocate error, who are, so to speak, willing tools in the fight against truth. But these are to be recognized because they are more fanatics than good people. And no spiritual enlightenment will radiate from them. Anyone who listens to them and is hungry for truth will remain unsatisfied and unenlightened, thus he will not receive light. What emanates from Me gives light to the human being, and truth can already be recognized by this. I speak in the most comprehensible form to the one to whom I want to reveal Myself, and if he himself is willing and truth-loving he will also recognize himself where his previous thinking was wrong. He will accept the revelations with heart and intellect and become wise, because he will also become able to judge and weigh when the received spiritual knowledge is contrary to his old knowledge. My instruments will always be those people who show Me a heart full of love and zeal for service, because I can speak to them like a father speaks to his children. Love enlightens the spirit, and where it can work in a person error will soon be recognized as error, and the person will free himself from it because truth makes him happy and gladly gives up wrong knowledge. But I watch over My own and protect them, if they want to serve Me, from bad influence, and therefore you can always safely accept as truth what testifies to Me, what points to My act of salvation and to My infinite love for you, My living creations, who are in adversity and whom I want to help to beatitude. Wherever My love is recognizable My spirit is at work, and wherever My spirit is at work there is truth ….
Amen

I need you …. The Custodian’s concern for His servants ….
B.D. 5085 from March 16th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
I need you …. The adversity on earth is huge and can only be solved with your assistance, because I cannot influence people’s souls with My omnipotence, instead, their free will must be stimulated and you should assist with that. There is immense adversity and I only have a few fellow workers on earth who want to steer this spiritual hardship. But these few are under My guardianship, they are cared for by My Fatherly love and will never be without protection. If you knew how I value your spiritual work you would no longer have the slightest doubt about My paternal care for you, you would not worry for a moment but, with complete confidence, always expect help in earthly adversity. Since you should constantly do your spiritual work I will also make sure that you can accomplish it, since the help for many souls depends on this work of yours, which cannot be taken to them by any other means. This work for Me and My kingdom is very carelessly carried out on earth, for only rarely is the full extent of the spiritual adversity recognised. Only a few people possess realisation, only a few people know the meaning and purpose of life on earth and the meaning and purpose of Creation, only a few people are therefore capable of instructing their fellow human beings of this information and thus only a few people can be true proclaimers of the Gospel, because it is absolutely vital for this mission that the proclaimer possesses the knowledge himself. You can therefore assume that I exceedingly carefully watch over those who are suitable for this proclaiming ministry, because they have received this knowledge from Me Myself. Teachings which are already spoilt are not entirely effective as a means of rescue for the misguided souls, they can only profit from the pure truth, only the pure truth is the means to remedy spiritual hardship. And once a person has become a bearer of truth through his will and his love for Me, he will be a faithful fellow worker whom I truly don’t want to lose, because I would not like to lose the many still misguided souls either but want to regain them before it is too late …. I need you, My fellow workers on earth, and I keep telling you time and again that I educate My bearers of light on earth Myself, because they are to restore the kingdom of God among people on My behalf, but that these bearers of light are in My service and, thus, will also be looked after by their Lord in every way. Consequently, anyone who works for Me need not fear any earthly worries, anyone who works for Me should also hand himself over to Me with complete faith, he should look up to the Father like a child and always be certain that he will also be guarded like a child by the Father. And the strength of his faith will give him peace, even in every earthly adversity, which I will solve when the time is right.
Amen

Influence of spiritual beings according to the will of man ….
B.D. 5086 from March 17th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
You are constantly surrounded by beings who want to gain influence over you, whom you call upon through your thoughts, whether they are good or bad. You will always be influenced by beings of light or also by dark beings to turn towards or away from the light, and the more you strive towards the light the stronger will be the efforts of those beings. Then the dark forces will also be stimulated to increased activity to wrest from the light again what it desires. For the dark forces hate the light and seek to extinguish it. The beings of light, however, are all the more eager to protect where light has to be spread, and where a human being on earth is in contact with the spiritual kingdom as a bearer of light, fierce battles often take place, for both sides make every effort to win over those people, because the battle between light and darkness is particularly significant in the last days and every power hopes to gain the advantage for itself. The beings of light certainly have the power to suppress everything dark and to prevent it from working, yet the dark power is also granted the right to influence people’s senses, and the decision is left to the human being himself, which is why the battle has to be limited to influencing both sides. Darkness, however, works with cunning and force …. It sets the most dangerous traps for the human being, it often deceives him with illusions, it seeks to confuse his thoughts, it does not fight openly but often hides under a mask …. And therefore the danger is very great for the human being who is not of firm will to reach God. The will alone decides which power will be victorious. Anyone who seriously desires to attain God gives the beings of light superiority over those beings of darkness through his will …. then the beings of light may use their power and displace the evil forces, but this is not permissible as long as the human being’s will has not yet freely decided. Pressures from the underworld will still take place but only in the form of disturbances through which the beings take revenge for their failure. The human being has strong protection in the beings of light as soon as he voluntarily recommends himself to them, as soon as he calls upon them for this protection against the dark power. Thus he gives them the right and the power to make use of their strength, and the human being can calmly surrender himself to their protection. The world of light is always ready to help, it only waits for the call which can already be expressed through thoughts in a hot desire for good and the request for protection against all evil. Then the human being is no longer threatened by danger, for the power of the dark force breaks with this will for good, which includes the desire for God. He is only in danger as long as he himself is still fickle as to which way his will should decide. Then both forces will still struggle for him, the will, and good to him who decides right, for he will also always be helped to reach the aim because the world of light will help him ….
Amen

World only means for the purpose …. overcoming matter ….
B.D. 5087 from March 18th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
The world will never give you fulfilment, for in the end it will take away everything you possess of earthly goods. The world only considers your fleshly body but not your soul, and since the fleshly body perishes, the soul stands poor and bare at the gate to eternity if it has not created spiritual goods for itself on earth. The world only gives you in appearance, but in reality it takes away …. your right to eternal life …. You are indeed in the midst of the world, it has been given to you as a place to stay, so to speak, and the soul had to agree to spend a probationary period in this world. And it can also successfully pass this probationary period if the human being only regards the earthly world as a means to an end, as a means of testing, if he does not let it become master over him but always remains its master, if he does not make himself a slave to what surrounds him but always strives to overcome earthly matter in view of his earthly task, if he certainly uses it where it is at his disposal but in a God-ordained sense by helping matter itself to redemption ….. if he regards everything earthly-material as what it really is …. directed spiritual, which likewise walks the path of redemption and is grateful for every opportunity for serving activity. Then matter will never become master over the human being, then he will seek something for himself which is more desirable to him because it cannot pass away. Then he will supply the soul with goods which signify true wealth and will remain with it even after the discarding of the body of flesh. In this realization the human being does not regard matter as the fulfilment of his desire, it is only a necessary means for him to successfully cover the earthly path, and thus the world with all its incentives and temptations also loses its value for him. He knows that they are only sham goods and at the same time a strong danger of also losing the imperishable goods. That is why you should not love the world, for this love will only result in the loss of eternal life; you should learn to recognize it for what it is, as the realm of God’s adversary, as a conglomeration of immature spiritual things which would like to draw the already more mature spiritual things down to themselves again. You should learn to recognize it as deceptive light in order not to let your souls recognize the true light; you should know that the world will pass away one day and that you therefore have to strive for that which is imperishable. Then the earthly world will lose all danger for you, on the contrary, you yourselves will be able to contribute a great deal to also help earthly matter to ascend by creating opportunities for it to be of service, i.e. by giving material things their purpose by creating useful objects so that the spiritual in them will be of service and thereby progress upwards. Seek to guide everything to its purpose and, in doing so, first and foremost remember your own soul so that it frees itself from earthly desires in the midst of the world, so that it learns to recognize the spiritual kingdom as its place of origin and strives towards it again with the serious will to achieve the reunion with God, which is the purpose and aim of earthly life ….
Amen

Exhortation not to forget God …. coming need ….
B.D. 5088 from March 19th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
The call from above goes out to all of you: Do not forget Me so that you will not be helpless and alone when the great adversity comes upon you. For in this adversity no one earthly will be able to help you, then you will only be dependent on My help, yet you will not call upon Him Who could help you because you have forgotten Him. But to forget Me means to be the servant of the one who is My adversary. For if you forget Me, My adversary has won you over and you must be in bondage to him. Yet he cannot help you in the great coming adversity and therefore you will be lonely and forsaken and inevitably abandoned to ruin if you don’t still turn to the one Who gave you life in the last hour. For the adversity will become so severe and your helplessness in the face of it can make you remember Me, for I Myself come close to you through this adversity in order to remind you of Me. Nature will speak to you with a voice of thunder, its roaring and roaring will cause you to be terrified, yet you will not be able to escape, death will threaten you from all sides and people will not be able to help and save you from your situation, which I did not put you into without intention. You shall be reminded of Me again, Whom you well know but have forgotten …. you shall also recognize My reign and activity in the elements of nature …. You shall experience Me, for it is I Myself Who speaks to you through the elements of nature …. And you must listen to this voice, and good for him who recognizes it as My voice …. good for him who feels himself addressed and allows My voice to penetrate his heart …. good for him who does not let Me speak in vain but goes within himself and converses with Me …. I will teach him with love, I will reproach him for his sin, for having gone without Me in this world …. but I will also accept him into My little flock and he will never regret having followed My powerful words from on high …. Then you will firmly stand by Me and My adversary will no longer have power over you, for those who have then found their way to Me will also remain faithful to Me, they will never be alone and abandoned, and even the adversity will be bearable for them, because I, Who send them upon you humans for your own sake, can also remedy them again when the time is right ….
Amen

Call of God secures divine revelations …. messengers of light – truth ….
B.D. 5089 from March 20th 1951, taken from Book No. 57
Those who seek Me will find Me …. those who desire to hear God, I will reveal Myself to them, and those who long for My fatherly love, I take them to My Heart and give them in all abundance …. love and grace. So let this be the characteristic of My working, that the heavenly father always considers His children and that His children are those who want to make contact with Him. Thus a dark spirit can never answer when a person calls upon Me or asks Me, when he converses with Me and expects an answer from Me. His thoughts for Me, his prayer in spirit and in truth is also a guarantee that it is I Who reveals Myself to him. Whether I Myself or My messengers of light approach the human being is one thing, for the messengers of light are My servants through whom I convey to people on earth what is helpful to them. And thus these messengers of light are also guarantors of truth, because they do nothing but carry out My will and live in fullest truth themselves, thus they will also pass it on if the truth is desired. A direct connection with Me is implausible to people but therefore not impossible. Understandably, I will not reveal Myself to those who do not believe in a direct activity on My part, because they would not believe a revelation either and would only explain themselves humanly, which, however, is spiritual activity. But anyone who believes that I reveal Myself to people or through messengers of light, who prays to Me out of this belief, will not wait in vain for My answer. I approach him with joy because I see his willingness to listen to Me and his faith will bear abundant fruit. I draw near to every caller for Me and he can hear My voice if he listens into his heart and pays attention to what this heart gives back to him. Admittedly, he cannot perceive Me with physical organs, his soul has to pay attention to its sensations, and if the human being listens with deep faith the soul will be able to communicate the sensations to him, for then the body is likewise willingly turned towards Me and then I can also bestow upon it the ability to understand what the soul conveys to it in spiritual language. Hearing My voice is a simple process for a person who is deeply inwardly united with Me, yet it is difficult for a worldly person to understand, which is why few will only find faith who claim to receive announcements from the spiritual kingdom. For they must possess an ability which the worldly person lacks, which can only be acquired through faith and love for Me but which cannot be denied once it exists, because then testimonies from the spiritual kingdom will also be available which only the person who has completely turned away from God will not accept, who therefore does not acknowledge Me and also lacks faith due to his lack of love. Trying to convince him that I express Myself is a futile effort but it should not deter or tire a person from looking for Me, for I will let Myself be found as soon as his desire is sincere and his efforts persevering ….
Amen

Contact of people with the world of light …. Process of mediation ….
B.D. 5090 from March 21st 1951, taken from Book No. 57
The world of light wants to make contact with you …. but contact is only established when you yourselves want the same, and then a regular exchange of thoughts can take place which results in the greatest spiritual success for the people on earth who need the light. There are no other boundaries between earth and the spiritual world than those you humans draw yourselves …. It is up to you to abolish every demarcation, for your soul may rise unhindered into the spiritual kingdom as often and as long as it only wants to. Every soul can take countless treasures with it from the spiritual kingdom to earth, it is not prevented from doing so, but people themselves often prevent their soul from making use of these treasures because they don’t intellectually recognize their high value. That is why it is far more difficult for the beings of light to make people understand the immense value of spiritual gifts than to convey them. For only when people know about it do they strive for the connection with the kingdom of light and request such gifts. And such a prayer, which also demonstrates faith in it, is the prerequisite for the light beings’ activity to convey spiritual gifts to earth. It must be requested and expected with full faith …. Only then is contact established between earthly people and the world of light, and then regular spiritual communication can take place where knowing forces instruct the ignorant, where spiritual truths are conveyed from God to earth for the blessing of people who receive and pass them on. Then the human being himself will have exceeded the limits which he is authorized to do by God if he appeals to Him for support. The beings of light cannot communicate with him against the human being’s will, consequently it is the human being himself who has to remove seemingly natural limits by wanting the beings of light to express themselves and by believing that they can express themselves. The beings of light are always ready and wait with utmost patience for you humans to become inquisitive and send your thoughts into infinity inquiringly, only then are they allowed to answer, and the answer will truly be such that it satisfies the questioner in order to stimulate him to frequent mental contact, which empowers the beings of light for constant mental instruction and everlasting stimulation in the spiritual field. Then the soul will often detach itself from earth and seek to penetrate spiritual spheres which are not closed to it either. And whatever truth is beneficial to people will now be imparted to them, and they will thereby attain comprehensive knowledge which will remain as spiritual wealth of every soul even once it has left its outer shell, the human body. What is offered to it from the spiritual kingdom is everlasting good, and it exceeds all earthly gained knowledge, although worldly people do not acknowledge it since no evidence can be produced for it. Yet the origin of spiritual knowledge is a purest source, it is the eternal truth Itself Which conveys this knowledge to people through the messengers of light. God Himself is active in His love and wisdom to guide people into truth and to secure wealth for them which will one day let them become blissful creatures in eternity. For He not only thinks of His own in earthly terms but He wants to prepare them for the spiritual kingdom, He wants to educate them to become inhabitants of the kingdom of light whom He Himself can permeate with His light of love and who should therefore already establish this connection on earth so that He Himself can work through His messengers of light …. The human being himself must want it, then the forces which can make themselves understood to him will also come closer to him, and he will gain infinitely much spiritual knowledge and strive ever more to become a true citizen of heaven, because the light flowing towards him fills him more and more and makes him long for the eternal original light from Whom he once took his origin ….
Amen

Spiritual community …. Working together ….
B.D. 5091 from March 22nd 1951, taken from Book No. 57
A spiritual community can convey many blessings, for it distributes My Gospel in Words and deeds. However, I do not call members of an organised association a spiritual community but only people who, in spiritual unity, strive towards the same goal of coming close to the truth and thus to Me and who therefore also want to lead their fellow human beings to Me. For organisations can also exist without truly spiritually striving members, and I only acknowledge spiritual aspiration as the right desire for Me. An association of people who seriously discuss spiritual topics, whose hearts silently love Me and desire a bond with Me, is a spiritual community which is pleasing to Me, My blessing will always rest on them and the very spiritual work they do will be blessed by Me. Wherever they are together I dwell among them and guide their thoughts in the right direction, I intervene in their conversations Myself by expressing Myself through a person who is particularly devoted to Me, who will then effectively instruct the others and also be acknowledged because the others will feel that I Am at work, because they will feel addressed by Me and will be convinced that what they hear is true. A spiritual community will always render Me a great service, for they will achieve far more than an individual person can achieve by only working for Me and My kingdom. Yet every individual person should try to gain followers for Me, every individual should strive to expand the spiritual community and always lead new labourers to Me because many reapers will be needed during the last days and the work that still needs to be accomplished before the end will require every effort. Together you can be very successful, for people will always look at a solitary person with distrust and lend little credence to his words. However, as soon as other like-minded people join him everything he says and does becomes significant. Therefore try to find like-minded people with the same striving to be of service to Me and to do redemptive work on earth during the last days before the end. By doing so you will gain very much yourselves but you will also gain new souls which you can lead to Me, which you can prepare for their mission of becoming co-workers for Me and My kingdom, to whom you can proclaim the Gospel so that they will pass it on to all those who suffer spiritual hardship. What is not possible for an individual person can be achieved by many; they will find it easier to be believed and will always be strengthened by Me, for I bless all who are of service to Me ….
Amen

Christ's suffering ….
B.D. 5092 from March 23rd 1951, taken from Book No. 57
Christ’s suffering on the cross cannot even be remotely made understandable to people on earth, since in their imperfect state they cannot comprehend what it means for a perfect human being to fall victim to sin, for people’s iniquity effectively triumphed over Him Who had not caused them harm. The spawns of hell made the enlightened soul of Jesus, the man, tremble, yet it did not defend itself …. It endured everything; nevertheless it was horror-stricken by so much dirt and evilness from people. It suffered indescribably, even far more than the body, by what it had to endure. The soul was surrounded by darkness and its light was unable to bear darkness; all the same, it did not flee because it wanted to drain the cup to the dregs in order to redeem humanity. It gave up its light, because otherwise that which the love of Jesus, the man, wanted to happen to it in order to offer God a sacrifice for humanity’s sins could not have taken place. Thus it allowed its light to become ineffective and found itself in the midst of darkness which tormented and frightened it tremendously and increased its suffering a thousand fold, for the suffering of the soul exceeded the physical pain, which can only be understood by a perfect human being. Jesus, however, was as perfect as His Father in heaven is perfect …. and yet it was still on earth in the midst of sin …. His kingdom was the kingdom of light, the earth was Satan’s kingdom, and in this kingdom the soul of light allowed itself to be violated. And the purest and most translucent Being Which ever lived on earth was horrified. It had to allow itself to be touched by hands it detested, because they extended from hell and took hold of it, it had to hear intensely hurtful words; it was effectively detached from its world and totally at the mercy of darkness, which had certainly been its own will for eternity in order to achieve the act of Salvation, yet it was nevertheless no less horrendous, for it was being terrified and tortured to the point of exhaustion …. This is why Jesus exclaimed: ‘My God, my God, why have You forsaken me ….’ At this moment in time it no longer remembered its mission, it only felt the separation from God, from light, for Whom it longed and for Whom it called in its distress …. It was the cruellest thing ever experienced by a person on earth, because He not only had to endure the body’s suffering but also because the soul had suffered considerably more still, which humanity cannot understand. For this reason no human being, regardless of how much he would have to suffer, will be able to reach the extent to which Jesus the man had to endure, Who already knew about it long in advance and in His human nature prayed: Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but Thine, be done ….’ It was also the will of His soul, which had completely subordinated itself to God, to accomplish the act of Salvation and it accepted its fate, for its love for the suffering human race was greater than great, but likewise the guilt of sin was so immense that only the most extreme pain and suffering could count as a sacrifice of atonement, which therefore was carried out by Jesus the human being. Yet the depth of suffering was as immeasurable as His love, which made Him take all suffering of body and soul upon Himself in order to redeem humanity from eternal death ….
Amen
