Just regard yourselves as My organs through which I want to speak to people …. And you will never need to think and consider what you should say, because I use every opportunity, every willingness on your part to speak for Me and My kingdom, in order to speak Myself, certainly with words which seem to originate from yourselves, yet always suitable to appeal to the human heart which shall now also be touched by the strength of My word. Every opportunity you take to acquaint your fellow human beings with Me and My word finds My support and My cooperation, because this is My will that people should be taught and I can only speak to them through human mouths, through you. I only require your will to cooperate, that you make it your task to direct people’s thoughts spiritually, that you first create the opportunity for My direct working through you, for you first have to touch an area in your conversations into which fellow human beings shall follow you. Hence you must hold spiritual conversations and inwardly unite yourselves with Me such that I am the actual speaker when you speak. And thus you should also always completely hand yourselves over to Me through mental connections and redeeming will to help, and then all your thinking, wanting and doing will be guided by Me, because then you will subordinate your will to Mine of your own accord and you can only think, want and act correctly. And every spiritual work you do for Me and My kingdom with the intention of redemption will be carried out as I recognize it to be successful and as a blessing for people. You constantly receive instructions from Me, for your thoughts are now subject to My will because you have freely offered yourselves to Me for service, and the more you hand yourselves over to Me the clearer the thoughts in you will be and will be perceived as My working. The adversity of the time demands eager cooperation from you, for I Myself am always willing to approach people because their adversity takes pity on Me and I want to help them. But I Myself am limited by your will, that is, a direct address on My part is only possible if you offer yourselves to Me of your own free will as an organ through whose mouth I can speak. And where the will enables Me to do so, I am constantly ready to give. I want to bring help to countless souls, I want to touch countless hearts in order to win them for Me and My kingdom. I want to make countless people acquainted with My word so that they will also get to know the giver of the word, so that love for Him awakens in them and they now long for His word, so that they desire it with all their heart and now grant Me entry into this …. so that the power of My word may work in them and make them blessed …. Your will to serve Me builds a bridge to many human hearts whom I can now address, to whom I bring a sure means of grace in their spiritual hardship and show a path to ascent …. And therefore I bless every work for Me and My kingdom, every spiritual conversation and every helpful thought, for it demonstrates love for Me and for the neighbour, which will only ever yield beneficial fruits ….

Amen

Every now and then thoughts impose themselves upon you which originate from the realm of unenlightened spirits which, because they are still earthly minded, stay in the vicinity of people and try to transfer their materialistic thinking upon them. The human being is constantly surrounded by thought currents, yet he only ever accepts that mental information which corresponds to his will; and since the human being is unable to completely detach himself from earthly things as long as he lives on earth, it is understandable that beings which are still earthly-minded can also access his mind. Although they can’t often penetrate spiritually-striving people, the thoughts certainly affect them, but they are not retained and leave no impression on the person …. And thus there is no danger if such beings occasionally push themselves forward in order to be heard, because the spiritual world …. the beings of the kingdom of light, already have far greater influence and are willingly listened to and thus time and again chase earthly thoughts away in order to express themselves. However, one thing the human being should not neglect …. to observe himself and to resist earthly thoughts as far as possible when he wants to establish a spiritual connection …. He should not mix spiritual knowledge with earthly information, for he himself is the cause if certain beings intervene if he does not remove himself from the world, if he does not withdraw into solitude and mentally detaches himself from everything that surrounds him …. A person can certainly resist thoughts he doesn’t want, he need only briefly call upon God for protection and help, and every approach by these earthly-minded beings will be prevented by the beings of light, which are then entitled to form a wall around the person who wants to make contact with them …. This will render every misguided or earthly influence impossible and opens the heart to spiritual influence, which always corresponds to truth …. As soon as the human being is aware of the correlation, of the mental influx by beings from both realms, he will, providing he is serious, check himself and thus protect himself from disagreeable mental currents, for the human being’s will is decisive as to whether these beings gain access to him, but his will also assures him the truth as soon as his will turns to the beings of light which then have the right and God’s instruction to convey light to him. Hence, to receive spiritual knowledge in order to pass it on to fellow human beings is a responsible mission which may only be administered by people of serious will who simply want to receive and distribute the pure truth. This determination will always be granted and ignorant beings are therefore denied access when a person hands himself over to spiritual forces to receive the truth …. Then he will be protected from all error, because God Himself blesses those who desire the truth and want to spread it, and His blessing guarantees purest truth, thus protection from misguidance, protection from the forces of darkness ….

Amen

There can be no more spiritual upswing on this earth because people have already devoted themselves too much to matter, that is, to that which the earthly world embodies, which is God’s adversary and will remain so for eternal times. Before the expiry of an earthly period the spiritual low is clearly recognizable …. It is also obvious that people no longer change, precisely because matter holds them captive. Only the overcoming of matter ensures spiritual ascent, but the overcoming of matter necessitates a recognition of its unworthiness and this in turn necessitates a reflection on survival after death and on the human being’s actual task on earth …. But people are no longer moved by such thoughts because they no longer have faith and because they do not live in love …. It is a simple explanation why the spiritual state is so low, why no change of it is to be expected either …. because people lack love, which would entail faith, realization and spiritual striving …. If people would change to love then no end of the redemption period would be necessary either, yet nothing can induce them to do so, neither their fellow human being’s adversity and misery nor their own adversity changes their attitude, and they do not establish a bond with God because they do not believe in Him …. Thus a spiritual change cannot be expected on this earth, and only such a change would be able to stop the end of the earth, because then the earth would fulfil its task as a work of creation again, because then it would be a training station for the spiritual again, as is its purpose. But a spiritual turning point must occur, and if this is not possible on the old earth, an epoch of redemption must be ended and a new one begun. For people do not remain in this spiritual low but sink ever deeper. And this is prevented by God through a separation of spirits, a new banishment of those who have sunk deepest and through the emergence of a new earth with spiritually mature people who live again according to God’s will …. with whom a new period of development begins, where the souls can reach the highest perfection. God’s love and wisdom truly recognizes when the time for this has come, and God will never give up a soul which can still be saved. But when no more transformation is possible, then the time has also come and the scripture is fulfilled …. The end is coming and with it the day of judgment, the earth will pass away and a new one will arise, and the way to salvation will be opened for the deeply fallen again ….

Amen

Intensive counteractions will have to be carried out when the Antichrist starts his last work of curtailing all spiritual aspirations, when he visibly works against God by trying to eradicate every Christian belief and thus his anti-Christian attitude becomes clearly evident. Then all forces of heaven and earth will have to be mobilised, for this will be the start of the most difficult battle the Christian community has ever experienced …. Then the last battle of faith will commence, which is the beginning of the end and which will be waged with ruthlessness and brutality, because Satan himself will rise against God in order to bring Him down and elevate himself to His throne. But then all servants of God on earth will also be greatly supported by the world of light, for then diligent work has to be done in order to refute the enemy’s offensives, in order to proclaim Jesus Christ and to confess Him before the world …. Then the secrecy will be over and it will be revealed who believes in and loves God, who is strong enough to acknowledge Jesus Christ as his only Lord and does not fear the orders of the opposing power …. Then every proclaimer of the divine teaching of love will be blessed twice over, for then his work will be urgently required …. he will proclaim God with conviction, Who is supposed to be renounced, he will fight on His behalf and not fear those who threaten him with death …. Such work can only be carried out by someone who has gained realisation, who knows about everything including the signs of the end and who therefore cannot help but speak up on behalf of Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation, because he has been seized by His love and grace and feels His activity and because this provides him with the strength to achieve anything, including openly confessing his faith, which will result in a most bitter earthly fate. He disregards the difficulties because he has become knowledgeable and no longer fears anything in this world …. because he has recognised the right Lord and also gladly gives up his life for him.

The counterwork demanded of God’s fighters is to offer clarification where doubts exist, to persuade the souls to hand themselves over to Jesus Christ, Who is every soul’s Redeemer and Saviour and Who will also deliver them from the earthly adversity and distress when the end has come …. Their work consists of spreading the recognised truth and of courageously confronting slanderers and blasphemers, representatives of misguided teachings and all those who are hostile-minded towards Christ’s teaching …. Their task consists of spreading light because people are enshrouded by the darkest spiritual night. And even then there will still be people who are undecided which way to turn, and to present the true nature of God to them is likewise part of the work for the kingdom of God, for the pure truth can and will not fail to have an effect on a truth-desiring heart, and this applies to the few who are undecided, who will have to be treated particularly kindly in order to come over into your camp and to become your friends instead of your enemies …. The weapons used by the Antichrist in the last battle of faith will be devoid of all love, however, you, too, shall eagerly fight, but with the weapon of love …. you should try to impart to them that which you possess yourselves, which you received from God …. His Word, which will affect everyone according to His will. Anyone who truly desires light will become enlightened, and anyone who possesses light will also know how to conduct himself in the days when God’s adversary rages and tries to seize all souls for himself. The battle will indeed be very unfair, for you will only be a small flock but your enemies will be large crowds …. Yet you will truly have more strength, for you receive it from God directly, and this strength can defeat your worst enemies. With your strong faith you will also be able to give evidence of Me and My might to the enemy …. and can thereby ruin the finely laid plans of God’s adversary, for the strength of faith obviously testifies to God, the strength of faith can still defeat your enemies before the end so that they voluntarily let themselves be taken prisoners by you. They can come over into your camp and be saved forever ….

Amen

You humans should believe that you can get anything you want from Me if only you pray to Me in the right way …. And an earthly father will not deny his child anything if it trustingly asks him for something, an earthly father cannot refuse anything to the child because he loves it with all his heart and also wants to possess the child’s love. An earthly father, however, is a person with weaknesses and shortcomings compared to your Father in heaven, Whose love is far deeper for His children, whose love He desired from the beginning. It is My children’s will which separated them from Me, which turned them towards My adversary and which I desire to have. And I accept that this will applies to Me if a person calls upon Me in prayer, if it is the right kind of prayer which demonstrates the child’s call for the Father. Then the human being will be on the path of return to Me, then I will already have won My child back, and then My love shall be willing to give what it takes in order to also win My child’s love, so that it will never ever turn away from Me again.

But people’s prayers are rarely what they should be …. they might still pray to their God but not to the Father, and their prayers have no strength for they lack childlike trust as well as the faith that I will answer their prayer …. And this is not a sign of the right relationship between a child and its Father, they are still too distant from Me, they merely try and then are even more unbelieving when their prayer was in vain …. First learn to recognise the Father in Me and then speak to Me, then you will find out for yourselves how much more effective your prayer can be. Your adversity is intended to make you aware of the fact that you are unable to achieve anything with your own strength and that, in your helplessness, you should and are able to turn to the One who is powerful, Who can and also wants to help you because He loves you …. In this awareness you will feel yourselves as His children and then in humble and heartfelt prayer present your adversity to Him and He will help you, keeping true to His promise: Ask, and it shall be given you …. knock, and it shall be opened unto you ….

Amen

The final decision, too, has to be made in all freedom of will but it will cost you sacrifices, which is why you have to muster a strong will in order to remain steadfast against your adversary’s demands to deny Me. And yet, you cannot be forced in any direction, and you will not be able to excuse yourselves from having to give in to coercion on the part of earthly rulers. For you can resist at any time, even though you will then have to suffer on earth. The confession of My name is a very great test of faith which, however, is naturally passed by the one who knows about the end and the signs beforehand, who is therefore truthfully informed, who has knowledge of My word and through it of My eternal plan of salvation …. He will stand firm, even if a thousand devils oppose him, for his will to remain faithful to Me will give him increased strength, and thus he need not fear this time, the confession in the final battle of faith. But the situation is worse for those whose house is built on light sand …. whose faith is not lively enough, who lack the strength of faith because they don’t live in love, and who therefore also lack the knowledge of the pure truth which would let them confess Me and My name with full conviction. They will have to make great sacrifices and don’t know for what they are taking the heavy burden upon themselves, because inwardly they themselves doubt what they are supposed to represent. They do not stand firm in their faith and therefore have little strength to resist. But it is not about earthly life but about the life of the soul …. and so people want to keep the words before their eyes: Fear not those who kill your body but cannot kill your soul …. then they would experience strengthening in their faith and turn to Him Whom they should confess. And they would truly be helped to make the right decision of will. I still want to confront these people in the word beforehand, I want to point out to them the time of the battle of faith and direct their thoughts to the occurrence of My predictions …. I want to predict the signs so clearly that they will become suspicious and then also pay more attention to the words which I will always and constantly convey to them …. And the latter is only possible when My word is spread, when all possibilities are exhausted to inform fellow human beings of the transmission of My word from above …. Whatever can still happen to save souls I will make possible, and whatever is done to spread My word I will favour, for I still want many people to experience what they can expect in the forthcoming time. I want them to become aware of their responsibility, I want to draw their attention to the fact that they must decide of their own free will and that they should therefore strengthen their will through the call of Jesus Christ, Who takes care of everyone, Who gives strength to the weakened will and Who is always willing to take care of the souls which have an earnest desire to remain faithful to God and feel anxious due to earthly measures …. He stands by you, for if you call upon Him you confess Me, Who became an imaginable God to you in Jesus Christ …. Who draws all to Myself who want to confess Him and His name before all the world ….

Amen

The fruits of the spirit are to be recognized, they cannot be confused with the fruits of the intellect, with the results obtained through intellectual research. What the spirit announces to you fills the gaps of intellectual knowledge, which without the working of the spirit remains fragments of doubtful truth. Therefore it is better to rely on the results of spiritual knowledge without hesitation than to brood and research by other means, because pure truth can only be received through the spirit. But the spirit expresses itself so quietly that the spiritual ear has to listen in order to hear its voice, and therefore the human being should shut himself off from the world so that no disturbing sound drowns out the spirit’s fine voice. But then God reveals Himself through the spirit and dispenses profound wisdom.

What is apparent to you as creation has come forth from God’s power; thus it is power condensed formed by His will …. Every work of creation must have a basic substance from which it originated …. If the human being wants to bring something into being by virtue of his creative ability, a basic substance must be present or he himself must produce this basic substance again from other existing substances. God, however, was and is the producer of the basic material by emanating a force Himself and then letting everything arise from this force which He wants. Power is something spiritual and becomes earthly tangible substance through His will …. God as the source of strength constantly generates strength and sends it out as something alive, because strength cannot be something dead but is a constantly life-generating and testifying element …. The force therefore has an effect, it animates everything dead, it disturbs the dead in its rest and impels it to become active likewise …. The power is the revitalizing agent which now causes that which was previously dead to stir and slowly awakens to life. Every expression of God’s strength is a flow of love which is to be conveyed to that which has fallen away from Him, to the dead, in order to awaken it to life again. This fallen away is therefore to be called dead because it is no longer touched by God’s power, because it itself, i.e. in free will, stepped out of God’s flow of love and as a result became lifeless, thus hardened within itself and lost all ability to move, which signifies life.

This hardened spiritual, which has fallen away from God, can only awaken to life again and become active itself when it is illuminated by a force. The power of love radiating from God into infinity can be compared to an infinite sea of fire whose sparks circle around at breakneck speed and try to enclose the ossified spiritual being in order to give it life again …. But this is full of resistance against the radiation of love from God, and where the strength meets resistance it loses its effect, i.e. it certainly encloses the unruly entity but does not bring it to life against its will but keeps it imprisoned, yet with the intention of moving it to give up its resistance in time …. Thus, the strength of love is condensed by God’s will into a form which now contains the spiritual substance that resists Him ….

And thus creation came into being …. which is visible to people as matter …. this is how the emergence of all matter can be explained, which is intended as a fetter for the beingness, with the aim of breaking the being’s resistance for once, that it accepts God’s radiation of love and thereby awakens to life again. But the condensation of strength out of God into form is only possible when it encounters resistance, thus the emergence of matter was the result of the spiritual’s resistance against God’s strength of love, otherwise this strength only ever expresses itself as immense light radiation in the spiritual kingdom where it is not opposed by resistance. The power of love is hindered in its effect by the resistance, and it allows itself to be hindered and enters a state of rest for a certain time because it is love and wants to redeem what is hardened …. Incessantly active strength becomes still and forms itself into something visible …. it encloses the hardened spiritual within itself but at the same time protects it against the influence of the one who is devoid of all love and wants to prevent the giving up of the resistance of the beingness …. And this is the first effect of the strength of love, that it isolates the beingness and withdraws it from the influence of the negative strength. Although the positive power now remains silent, the resistance of the being bound in it nevertheless imperceptibly decreases in order to accept the life-giving power after an infinitely long time and a weak life becomes recognizable even in seemingly dead matter, whereupon God’s strength of love becomes more and more effective and this proves itself through more and more awakening life, which is synonymous with a beginning redemption of the bound, the beingness, which is to develop through the course through creation upwards …. (13.7.1953) The upward development in the creations proceeds in such a way that, as soon as the will for activity awakens in the hardened spiritual, the force holding it captive loosens, thus its pressure decreases, which means the beginning dissolution of matter, a slow release of the spiritual from the form enclosing it …. To a certain extent the resistance is broken, the spiritual accepts God’s radiation of strength, even if only to a very limited extent, and the hardened spiritual slowly awakens to life …. it stirs until it finally bursts the outer shell …. or rather, until the enveloping strength of love releases it …. in order to bind it again into a new form, because the spiritual must remain bound until it has reached a certain degree of maturity where it can now freely dispose of itself again ….

Matter is therefore bound, hardened spiritual matter …. But the binding happens through God’s power of love. If this strength withdraws, then matter disintegrates, it dissolves and the spiritual bound in it becomes free to move into a new material cover. The hardened spiritual substance would never be visible to the human eye, for it is spiritual substances which have become powerless and therefore inactive …. But God’s love gathers such powerless substances and shapes them into matter, into something visible …. He created a world of the fallen spiritual, a world of the bound, He created a world which outwardly shows the degree of maturity of the bound spiritual, in which it can slowly develop upwards with the help of divine strength of love, which it can accept or also reject according to its own will, but which also always determines the hardness of matter which encloses it. What is bound is immature spiritual that still remains in resistance, what binds this spiritual is God’s strength of love. And thus it can rightly be said that the material world is the realm of God’s adversary because it offers this spiritual being, which is still in bondage to him, a place to stay …. And yet, it is God’s creation which was only shaped by the unstoppable strength of love emanating from God in order to give life again to the dead, but which first has to be desired before the spiritual experiences a loosening or finally liberation from its bondage. Thus there are innumerable sparks of light whirring in the universe which, with their immense strength, drive apart the clumped together powerless inactive spiritual substance in order to then capture and enclose innumerable individual substances again …. And thus these sparks of light are known to you humans as electrons, as the original substance of matter, but you don’t know about their origin and spiritual task if you don’t obtain clarification by spiritual means. However, everything visible in God’s creation proves to you the invisible, it proves to you a force which works unstoppably and whose activity you must also acknowledge, otherwise you will think wrongly and never reach the light ….

Amen

Don’t harbour any false hopes by expecting permanent advancement. Everything you own, everything you acquire, will be taken away from you again and immense misery will come upon people everywhere, for the end is approaching. And where people keep their possessions, where they appear to enjoy earthly security, My arm must brandish a different rod upon people, for I will try to educate people everywhere according to their will and way of life, and no-one will be able to really enjoy their life apart from the few who are enlightened and may truly and joyfully look forward to the end which will limit a period of time, which will include a new life in paradise and therefore may be yearned for by My Own. But where people live in sin there is a noticeable advancement, albeit with an opposite effect …. For this worldly progress is Satan’s way of making people increasingly more pliable, it is the purchase price for their souls, which will go astray for an infinitely long time. If you humans can recognise this earthly progress then you will know that the end is not far away, for you will only be able to notice it where faith and love are missing, where My adversary is clearly in control and where action will be taken against the faith, against My Own, without a second thought …. For this reason, all over the world immense misery can be found next to people living in sinful luxury, all over the world unkindness will gain the upper hand and love will be gagged and the craving for matter will be obvious in the whole world, while spiritual aspirants will be treated with hostility …. Small and large scale destruction will happen everywhere, dramatic changes will be observed all over the place, either naturally or humanly induced, and everything will be thrown off its track …. Things will happen which no-one will be able to explain, obvious forces will be at work which scare people because they will feel helpless in the face of them; the undecided will be influenced in every way, since those who live in sin won’t pay any attention to these phenomena, they won’t let their lifestyle be disturbed, they will mock and laugh and talk about God in an unbelievably frivolous way. And all those who are purely worldly-minded will agree with them, for they are in the grip of matter which will not let go of them anymore. They will try to gain their possessions, pleasure and status forcefully and won’t shy away from betraying their fellow human beings and pushing them into poverty …. The world is full of devils and cannot continue like this any longer. But I know every soul and I will still recall many before the end has come. And the sudden death of so many will also signify an anxious time and immense suffering for people through which minor success can still be achieved, for the souls in the spiritual kingdom will still be able to influence people on earth and many a soul will succeed in changing the survivors’ minds and steering them towards the spiritual kingdom, in which case this suffering will have been a blessing which will have saved many a soul …. Pay attention to all this, you humans, and don’t expect a future improvement of your earthly situation, for it would not be a sign for you, unless you are already in My camp and experience the last days consciously …. However, most people will need to be strictly dealt with by Me in order to protect them from the worst, from the fall into the abyss, when the end has come ….

Amen

Every human being can redeem himself if he so wants, yet he cannot do so without Jesus Christ …. Hence Jesus Christ is the Redeemer, but if the human being does not want it himself, the act of Salvation at the cross was in vain for him. Only the human will brings it into effect, it is imperative that the human will first strives towards salvation through Jesus Christ, only then can he be assured that he will be redeemed. No human being has been excluded, no person needs to continue without freedom, because the man Jesus Christ died on the cross so that the whole of humanity …. all human beings of past, present and future …. can be redeemed from their guilt and no-one has been barred …. but salvation does not occur against the human will, and the will is only strengthened through Jesus Christ. Consequently He inevitably has to be acknowledged as God’s Son and Saviour of the world, otherwise His help will not be requested, otherwise the blessings of His act of Salvation will not be called upon. Because in the unredeemed state he is held in bondage by a dark force, his will for good is restrained and he is a slave to him who is his lord …. so that he complies with his will and as a result offends against divine order with heartless thoughts and actions ….

It is the will of the still constrained human being, which is wrongly directed. Due to his misguided love he only desires what pulls him down but not what elevates him. His restraints constantly pull downward, and if he wants to ascend then he has to be liberated from his chains, he has to be free from the force which controls him …. He has to be redeemed and can redeem himself with the strength of love. But this is extremely weak in a human being and can only be strengthened when the person calls on Him Who has overcome this power by His death on the cross, when he calls on the Lord to whom this power is inferior …. Jesus Christ, the Divine Saviour and Conqueror of death, the constrained state and helplessness. By His death on the cross He has acquired unlimited blessings which He shares with everyone who desires them. And by using these blessings the will becomes strengthened which enables the person to carry out deeds of love, to acquire God’s strength, which will inevitably help him to ascend and liberate him from the chains which had held him captive …. He has redeemed himself through Jesus Christ, or he was willing to let himself be redeemed by Jesus Christ …. to benefit from His sacrifice on the cross. He has delivered himself through the blood of Jesus from all guilt which had subjected him to the force of the power, which is God’s adversary and which therefore also had to be overcome by God Himself ….

If Jesus Christ is not acknowledged as Son of God and Saviour of the world, God’s adversary maintains his grip on the person, be it on earth or in the beyond. And this means that the soul remains in a sphere which will be without light for eternity, that the soul can never become enlightened, that it is without freedom and strength and can no longer change its situation by itself, that it is condemned …. until it is approached by a saviour …. And this Saviour once again is Jesus Christ, because only He has the strength to liberate the soul from the power of His adversary …. Yet again the soul has to want this itself, it has to call on Him when, due to an exceptionally weak gleam of light, it remembers the man Jesus in a flash, who was known on earth as the Saviour and Redeemer of humanity …. With its cry it acknowledges Him, it is a call in greatest need, which the Divine Saviour hears and Whose work of Salvation benefits this soul from now on too in as much as He liberates it from its torment.

You humans on earth should not bypass Jesus Christ because you will only delay your salvation, which you sooner or later have to accept, because you cannot be redeemed without Jesus Christ, but you yourselves have to want to be redeemed by Him …. This will can arise in you on earth if you are taught about Him correctly, about the significance of His crucifixion and your attitude towards the act of Salvation, because He will forever remind people of Himself, and the references to Him during the last days can be heard with such urgency, that every human being should seriously consider whether he can accept responsibility for his attitude towards Jesus Christ …. He should ask for information in regards to the problem of God’s human manifestation and salvation, then he will also receive an acceptable explanation, but he should not be so arrogant as to make a rash judgment and abandon everything in relation to Jesus Christ. Sooner or later he will have to take the path to Him ….

But his remorse will be extremely painful if he does not realise his error until he is in the beyond, if he himself extends the state of his torment by his rejection of Him, Who alone can release him from his hardship. As soon as the human being on earth, or even in the beyond, takes the path to Jesus Christ, he will move towards his salvation …. But without Jesus Christ he will remain in darkness forever, he cannot rise from the tomb of death until he acknowledges the One, Who has overcome death …. He can only become blessed when he intentionally allows himself to become redeemed by Jesus’ blood ….

Amen

Carry My Gospel into the world …. You don’t realise how necessary it is that people are taught, that they hear My Word and thus discover My will …. Although they know everything you make accessible to them as My Word, they no longer consider it My Word, they are simply empty phrases which they do not take seriously, consequently, they do nothing to improve their soul’s maturity, they live for the moment without thinking about the purpose of their life on earth …. And now you shall take My Word to them anew, they will certainly recognise it as the same Word but it will seem more alive to them because you will bring them a gift which you had received from Me Myself and which will no longer appear dead to them, instead, it will appeal to them as soon as you offer My Word with love. Carry My Gospel into the world …. This is the only possible way to acquaint people with their God and Creator, with their Father of eternity, Whom they must get to know in order to establish contact with Him themselves. You should inform them of Me, of My love for My living creations, of My eternal plan of Salvation and of the approaching end which shall not find them unprepared. You should bring them the truth, the knowledge you have received from Me which is intended to help people attain beatitude. Try to direct their minds to spiritual spheres and, above all, draw their attention to the divine Redeemer Jesus Christ; you should try to encourage them to look within themselves, to work at improving their souls, to strive for spiritual life, for the rebirth of their souls …. Try to convince them of the soul’s continuation of life and the responsibility they bear as human beings towards their souls, portray the soul’s fate after death to them and draw their attention to the fact that a Helper exists, that they should appeal to Jesus Christ for strengthening their will if it is too weak and, most of all, encourage them to be lovingly active …. Pass on everything I teach you Myself, and thus be true distributers of My teaching of love and work for Me and My kingdom, because people need explanations, they need My Word, and it shall be vividly offered to them, otherwise they will reject it and yet they cannot become blessed without My Word. Remember that time is running out, that your work does not allow for any delay, that you must work diligently because humanity is suffering great spiritual adversity. Remember that there is not much time left until the end and that you therefore must not be half-hearted or sluggish, but that you can also be certain of My blessing, of My support and constant instructions, that I will always and forever give so that you can pass it on again to those who are in need and depend on your help …. Therefore, be eager labourers in My vineyard, serve Me as faithful servants and guide people out of the darkness of night into the light of day …. Preach My Gospel of love to all people, so that they will attain life and become blissfully happy.

Amen

Follow Me and you will attain an ironclad faith …. A person’s faith cannot come alive until he lives a life of love, until he takes the path I took Myself on earth, the path of unselfish neighbourly love …. You can certainly also acquire intellectual faith, that is, by way of logical conclusion gain a rational conviction of Me as Creator and Provider or of the One Who had allowed Himself to be nailed to the cross for you …. then you will also believe, yet such faith is not of much use to you …. it is merely a statement of facts which, admittedly, cannot be proven either but nevertheless will no longer leave you in doubt …. But what is a living faith?

A faith which lives and demonstrates or affirms its life through extraordinary works …. A faith which believes itself capable of doing extraordinary things in the firm realisation of also achieving them with My support …. A living faith demonstrates its strength, without doubting it takes My help for granted, and such faith enables the human being to achieve things which are regarded as miracles and yet are only the results of a living faith. And such faith can only be gained through a life of unselfish neighbourly love as I exemplified on earth, because love is the strength which achieves everything. Anyone who lives in love receives so much strength from Me that he wants to somehow put it into action, as a result of his activity of love he also feels My presence, and this realisation lets him bring about everything he is prompted to do by his heart ….

Love and a living faith cannot be separated; this is why love should be preached to people first, so that they will attain this living faith, for intellectual faith is no substitute for living faith, since it will fail as soon as people are faced by great hardship, it will shrink, the human being will be of little faith in the true sense of the word, perhaps even giving up his faith because it lacks the strength of love. Fighting for and trying to attain a firm faith means doing ever more labours of love, to overcome oneself and change selfish love into unselfish neighbourly love …. This necessitates fighting against all longings, but his struggle will bring him great rewards, for anyone with a living faith no longer knows fear, worry and doubt, he feels safe and secure in Me in Whom he believes, he no longer feels lonely but takes every step with Me, Who lives in him and Who acts and works with him in every way …. Anyone with a living faith is victorious over life and death, for God’s strength is at his disposal, he is in such close contact with Me that he will also always make use of My strength and achieve everything because he believes ….

Amen

You shall become perfect just as your father in heaven is perfect …. This is truly a statement which could leave you in doubt as to its origin from Me, for no matter what kind of people you are, no-one would presume to attain My perfection, and therefore these words seem incomprehensible and unfeasible to you. And yet they are easy to explain: that you should only shape yourselves into love …. Love is My actual self …. and if you have shaped yourselves into love you have also become a divine being, and something divine can also be called perfect. Love is the divine because it is My fundamental being, and therefore whatever is full of love must also be full of God, i.e. it must have all divine characteristics within itself which make it a perfect being. As human beings you are still so imperfectly formed because you once deified yourselves through wrong will and rejection of the strength of love from Me, you renounced love yourselves and thus became imperfect creatures which could no longer be regarded as My children when they fell away from Me. And although you no longer languish in the utmost abyss, although you have already drawn very close to Me, you are still without love and therefore still so imperfect, and therefore you are constantly admonished to change your nature, to strive for perfection, which can only be achieved by shaping yourselves into love, for love is the alignment with Me, Who is the eternal love …. It is certainly very difficult for a person who still lives in perverse love, in self-love, to put it aside and to change perverse love into divine love which works without any self-interest …. And therefore it is also difficult for them to imagine reaching the perfection of the father in heaven …. Yet it can be achieved through the call of Jesus Christ, Who comes to the aid of all the weak who ask Him for help …. What I ask of people is to be fulfilled, only the human being’s will can be too weak to seriously comply with My request, and for this weakened will there is strengthening through Jesus Christ. Thus I Myself help everyone who earnestly wants to attain perfection, for I draw him who desires the father …. I help him so that his heart becomes soft and willing to help, so that he himself feels an activity of love as silent happiness, and I always urge him to be active in love without, however, touching his free will …. The human being’s will remains free but will become all the stronger the more intimately he attaches himself to the saviour and redeemer Jesus Christ, Whom he is now able to love, and thus he constantly draws closer to Me through love until he deifies his nature and perfects himself ever more and …. if he intimately unites with Me through love …. he is completely filled with My strength of love and thus perfect, just as the father in heaven is perfect …. The human being returns to his original state, for he came forth from Me in all perfection, he was created in My image, by which spiritual perfection is to be understood, and he can very well attain it again by fulfilling My will during his earthly life …. by fulfilling My commandments of love, which only show the human being the way to become perfect in order to eternally return to the father from Whose love he once took his origin ….

Amen

The path upwards would be easy to find if you humans would only pay attention to everything that is meant to serve you as a signpost. If only you would see all the signs which are given for you, which clearly point upwards and which you only need to follow in order to go right. Anyone who walks with an open heart and with seeing eyes cannot go astray, for I will not leave any path unlit which seeking people take, they will always be able to find what they are looking for. But how many people walk thoughtlessly with their heads down and therefore don’t notice that they don’t reach an aim and also don’t notice that they are going downhill …. they don’t care about the aim they are striving towards, or they don’t set an aim but let themselves be driven by their fellow human beings who walk along with the same mind, who also don’t let themselves be frightened by the darkness of the path. And where the path is dark, there are also no branches to be seen that lead up to light heights …. Only those who are oppressed by darkness look for a way out, and they will find it, because again and again little sparks of light will flash out from the final destination into the darkness to entice the wanderers to strive towards the light. But the sparks of light are the messengers which I send to earth from the kingdom of light, which suddenly light up in the darkness and are to cause people to follow them. The messengers of the kingdom of light will never radiate such a bright light that people will be dazzled by it, instead, their radiance will be very mild and therefore only noticed by those who desire light. Yet they will also let a strong ray fall to earth when everything is shrouded in darkness and no human being knows which way to turn. And these are times of spiritual hardship where strong spirits of light descend from above to bring help when almost no light is left on earth, when there is no more truth amongst people and therefore the truth is to be brought to them, often in an unusual way. Then saviours descend to earth and bring them the light, the pure truth, which they have long since lost and therefore have fallen into severe darkness. And no matter how dark the night is, the darkness on earth will never be impenetrable because the inhabitants of the kingdom of light take care of people who can no longer find their way up because they do not pay attention to the signs which are supposed to show them the way. Then it happens that suddenly a being of light stands on the path, unrecognized by the wanderers, and shows them the direction they must take to reach the aim. They come to earth as signposts, because no one knows any more which path to take and where the paths lead. But even these signposts only pay attention to a few because people don’t believe that they are knowledgeable and that they will be advised correctly. Yet My love never ceases, and those who work for Me never tire of instructing the ignorant. And thus again and again little lights are kindled which break through the darkness of night and again and again allow the path to be recognized which leads upwards. And anyone who follows such a shining light, even if it is still faint, will soon be enveloped by bright light and then continue on his path unperturbed, for now he knows that he is going the right way, that I am the aim of the path and that he will safely reach the aim because I will reach out to him with My helping hand and support and strengthen him on the path upwards ….

Amen

You cannot delay the end anymore, for the time is fulfilled which God determined from the start in the knowledge of your will, since this strives relentlessly downwards and needs to be constrained anew. Every individual person can still shape himself such that he will not belong to those who will fall prey to a renewed banishment and also influence his fellow human beings so that they will be protected from the worst judgment. The time is fulfilled …. it means that the day of the end, the day when the material creations on this earth will be disintegrated, can be expected at any hour, even if no time has been given to you humans, because this knowledge would only result in utter confusion but be of no benefit to anyone. Yet it will happen as you were told …. and the last days will pass by in what seems like an instant, for they are only the end of that which was predicted to you long before …. The days of Judgment are already here and everyone can see it if he looks around with open eyes, yet what only concerns individual people at the moment will extend to all people, suffering, distress, mortal fear, adversity and despair …. Everyone will experience it, for the forces of hell are let loose, they rage and provoke wherever something can still be destroyed and they always find willing people whom they can use to cause all kinds of damage. However, everyone is able to apply for help from God, every person has virtuous spiritual forces by his side which he only needs to call upon to protect him from danger of body and soul …. Anyone who entrusts himself to God and His messengers of light can very confidently anticipate the end.

The time you humans were given for your souls’ maturation is fulfilled and the day of the end has been determined from the very beginning. But you don’t know when it will happen and can therefore even now still tackle the work of improving your soul, for every hour you turn your thoughts upwards is beneficial for you, since you establish the connection with the spiritual world from whence you originate …. Just try to detach your thoughts from the world, don’t let yourselves be controlled by the world and its possessions so as not to allow matter to become your fate for an infinitely long time to come …. Let your thoughts wander into a higher sphere and try to ascend to it. You will be able to do so because countless spiritual forces offer support to you, because they will carry you if you request them to do so. You can overcome the world if only you seriously want to. Use every day you are still given as an extraordinary gift of grace but bear in mind that every day can also be the last one for you and that only a very short time separates you from the end of this earth. For the end is not only granted to individual people but to the whole human race, because the law of eternal order is coming to pass and this law has existed for eternity. What you humans regard as a delay is part of the plan of eternity and can only be assessed as a delay insofar as that people already have reached the low spiritual level before the time which results in a disintegration of Earth …. However, God is merciful and will not pass Judgment ahead of the time …. In His love He still seeks to save people and distributes remarkable gifts of grace which are intended to contribute towards the redemption, but He will not change the Day of Judgment and announces it ever more admonishingly and warningly …. Yet He meets with little belief and the end draws ever closer …. And despite all predictions by His seers and prophets it will take humanity by surprise. And he who believes will be blessed, only he who believes will prepare himself even if he does not know the hour of the Lord’s coming …. but he expects his coming and perseveres until the end ….

Amen

Just immerse yourselves in My word if you become weak in faith and love, and you will visibly experience strengthening because you receive strength directly from Me through My word. The powerless state, the state of intolerance, of little faith is always a sign of weakness of will, it is a sign that My adversary is making great efforts again to turn you away from Me and you do not resist him because you are too weak, and let him stir you up to restless thoughts, to doubts and also to unkind actions if you don’t oppose him with the resistance which sets you free from him, if you don’t oppose him with My word which he cannot hear and therefore flees. For My word is strength, My word gives you the strength you lack and also pushes him away from you, because My adversary flees Me, Who is present to you in the word. Therefore, what do you have to fear if you are in possession of My word and immerse yourselves in every spiritual and earthly adversity …. Whether you call upon Me in prayer, whether you let Me speak to you in the word, then you will always long for My presence and you will be helped …. You truly don’t need to be of little faith, discontented or depressed if you can shake off everything that torments you through My word, for it is weakness of strength and weakness of will which pull you down but which you can remedy at any time if you want it yourselves. For My word is the answer to everything that affects you, My word is comfort and encouragement, admonition and warning at the same time, and it will always give you what you need in your soul’s distress …. My adversary will still often approach you because he hates the light which radiates from you, because he tries everything to prevent you from radiating the light which comes to you from above …. He knows that he will lose power through your activity, he knows that you will turn souls away from him and therefore he will stop at nothing to bring you down. Know that every impatient stirring of the heart, every displeasure, every failure in the spiritual sphere is stirred up by him, that they are, so to speak, prompted by him, for which he uses your fellow human beings again, and that he is only waiting for you to react to his counteraction in order to then deprive you of the opportunity to work for Me and My kingdom, and then he triumphs …. Don’t let him have this triumph but take refuge in My word, which is always the counterforce of his activity and which will always defeat him …. Only your will has to be turned towards Me, then all his attempts will be unsuccessful, for I will truly not let My children fall into his hands who desire Me. Then I will speak to you full of love and give you back what he wanted to snatch away from you …. the faith, the love, the tranquillity of heart, the peace from Me ….

Amen

Increased teaching activity will begin as soon as people awaken the desire to be taught the truth, and this will be the case when all sides take a stand against religious teachings which are doubted because they contradict themselves. For in the last days all doctrines of faith will be criticized and picked apart, people will try to portray them as completely unfounded and untrustworthy, and this will also easily succeed with people who have not yet been taught correctly, who have no judgement of their own and accept vituperation and ridicule against these doctrines as justified. And yet, there will also be people amongst them who do not lightly dismiss what they are advised but now want to have clarification …. And then it will be the task of My servants on earth, who were trained by Me Myself for this office, to bring them the truth, to instruct them correctly and informatively. For I will unite these seekers, those who desire enlightenment, with those who know, with the right proclaimers of My gospel, and I will give understanding to those who have an earnest desire for truth, for they, too, will carry on and testify for Me and My teaching again, they will condemn what is wrong and eagerly stand up for what is right, for the truth from God, which they recognize as My gift of grace and therefore will also confess the giver of this truth before the world. For anyone who possesses the truth himself will no longer give it away nor fear those who threaten him, for knowledge has made him strong in faith and a loving heart has made him receptive to knowledge, it has also given him the understanding for this knowledge which has now come alive in him.

Your great task still lies ahead of you who want to serve Me …. But first you must be prepared to proclaim My teaching correctly, first you must do the small work by handing out what you receive in order to then speak yourselves, driven and guided by My spirit, so that you will only speak what My spirit gives you …. Yet you should speak in a living way, and therefore you must also understand everything yourselves which you present to your fellow human beings, you should not merely reproduce like a machine what you yourselves are uninvolved in, instead, you should speak with clarity as if it were your wealth of thoughts. And this is your own, as soon as it came alive in yourselves, because you were previously instructed by My spirit about what you now teach ….

(24.7.1953) For it will be necessary that a light be given to those who suddenly realize in which spiritual darkness they were wandering and who now want to find their way out of the night of the spirit. And you will clearly feel it within yourselves to whom you should convey the truth, even though you should be prevented by threats and restriction of freedom …. I Myself want to give you the opportunity so that you will serve Me and your fellow human beings in the adversity which extends far more to the soul than to the body. And they will be lifted up by your strength of faith, by your courage and inner conviction, and everything you present to them as truth from above will be credible to them. For anyone who doubts can still be helped and given the truth, but anyone who rejects without thinking and denies Me could also be offered the truth without changing his thoughts and actions. Prepare yourselves for this teaching activity by memorizing My word yourselves, by making everything your spiritual property by living out My word, because then you will grant the spirit within you ever more right to work in you, and this spirit will truly guide you correctly in thought and speech if you are to exercise your ministry. Also increase your strength of faith, constantly work in love so that the strength of love can emerge as the strength of faith, and then nothing will be able to make you waver in your decision to confess Me before the whole world. Then you will be so filled with love for Me that I will be present in you, and then no power of the world will be able to harm you, then it will be able to resort to the worst means, it will not succeed in ousting Me from your heart, it will not succeed in persuading you to deny your faith …. For you have become knowledgeable through My spirit and thereby faithfully devoted to Me until the end ….

Amen

Countless souls in the beyond come into possession of spiritual goods which follow you and your activity for Me and My kingdom and are willing to be taught. A source of life has also been made accessible to them, for completely dead souls experience a boost once they have participated in the teachings which are recognizable as rays of light and attract such souls. And once the power of the divine word has become perceptible, they constantly long for it. And ever new souls call for it, ever new souls desire to receive light, and ever new souls are therefore brought close to the gospel, which now utilize it again in turn in order to help other souls out of the same adversity ….

If you humans knew about the blessing of such spiritual work you would be happy to be able to help and participate ever more eagerly in the work of redemption. But the assurance should suffice you that your help is dearly desired and eagerly awaited, that the flock of those who surround you is constantly increasing and that much light has already been kindled which will never go out again. For anyone who has once been touched by a spark of light in the spiritual kingdom no longer wants to remain without light and now earnestly strives to increase his knowledge which, because it is truth, now surrounds him as light whose glow he no longer escapes from but feels blissfully happy in it. And they ask you for information in the form of thoughts which are conveyed to you from the kingdom of light in order to be able to be answered truthfully. The questions of the listeners in the beyond are often the same, because they are always preoccupied by certain problems which arise again and again in them because they were taught about them wrongly or not at all when they still lived on earth. And I know about these questions and gladly provide clarification in the form of instructions, in the form of My word ….

(7/27/1953) Now on earth people’s teachings were untrustworthy as soon as they were not offered by a spiritually awakened person who could certainly have given them the right clarification. And thus it is especially the problem of Christ which was incomprehensible to them and which they therefore believed they could not accept. And therefore countless beings enter the kingdom of the beyond with wrong or insufficient knowledge and therefore almost no faith in Jesus Christ, and they are in great distress …. because without Jesus Christ no-one can become blissfully happy and because they therefore have to believe in Him if they want to ascend from the abyss. And deep darkness will surround these souls as long as they are not given a light in whose glow they can behold the cross of Christ …. as long as they do not hear the truth about Him, Who Himself is the light, the truth and the life …. The souls have to be taught about Him, and often they even lack all knowledge because they did not possess it when they ended their earthly life. These souls see it shine particularly brightly where a light is kindled about Christ, where spiritual instructions take place which deal with the problem of redemption, God’s human manifestation and His crucifixion. Countless beings push towards this light, and although they initially lack all understanding they nevertheless feel the benefit of the rays of light and remain in it …. they no longer turn away but wait patiently until they are enlightened, until they understand everything they hear, until a desire arises in them to always remain in this light and to participate in Jesus Christ’s act of salvation …. To receive light about Jesus Christ and His work of redemption is synonymous with certain redemption through Him. To know nothing of Him is to dwell continually in darkness. What you humans now do to spread the knowledge about Jesus Christ and His act of salvation, apart from the direct blessing for those who receive it from you, also results in undreamt-of blessings for the beings in the beyond who surround you and no longer leave you because they see this Christ light around you and want to be permeated by it. And the more it is your will to consciously convey light to them the more successful your work will be, for the souls in the beyond accept more easily and more quickly than people on earth, only pure truth has to be offered to them, because this strength is in itself and has to work where it is not rejected. And since the souls are in darkness and powerless, light and strength are the most desirable things to them, for they feel both as a blessing and are grateful for the attention. As soon as the connection from earth to the spiritual kingdom is established the light already radiates and attracts countless souls out of darkness. And what was still in darkness will be illuminated by the light of truth, and full understanding will be given to those who desire light over every misunderstood teaching. Questions on earth or in the beyond always precede the instructions by beings of light, for every soul shall be instructed which asks questions so that it will find it easy to believe, so that it will now also find Jesus Christ, so that it will recognize Him as its redeemer, without Whom no-one can become blissfully happy …. that it may cry out to Him for His love and grace, for His mercy …. so that it may be saved from darkness ….

Amen

The right path will truly be pointed out to you if only you are willing to take it. In that case you just have to let yourselves be guided by Me and you will be urged onto the right path, because I Am only waiting for you to take stock of yourselves, so that you want to achieve what is your real task on earth and live a right and righteous life on earth. Then I will take over your guidance Myself, for your present will entitles Me to do so. As the man Jesus I walked this path as an example for you, as the man Jesus I showed you the goal which you, too, ought to pursue; as the man Jesus I demonstrated to you what a human being can achieve if he takes this path.

And therefore I keep making His earthly progress clear to you, I draw your attention to Him, Whom I sent to earth to help you take the same path, because this is the only path which will lead to Me, to your God and Father of eternity. He had achieved the goal on earth, He ascended to heaven as a perfected being, as the cover of Myself, and I enabled My disciples on earth to witness this process so that they would have a testimony of what a human being can achieve on earth, so that they were able to behold Me Myself in Jesus Christ, Who had entered into eternal unity with His heavenly Father and thus was united with Me for all eternity …. And I want all of you to unite with Me, I want all of you to return to Me as My children, that all of you take the only path which leads into the Father’s house from whence you once originated …. You, however, wander around and don’t know this path, you cannot find it because you are not looking for it, you live on earth oblivious of your purpose, you walk on a broad road which will never lead to the goal because it is not the path which Jesus had taken. And therefore I have to keep sending you messengers to show you the right way, who want to guide you onto the right path.

I have to make the Word of Jesus Christ accessible to you humans, which He taught on My instruction on earth, the Word which I spoke through Him to people who listened because they believed in Me, Who spoke through Him. This Word of His will direct you to the right path again, and you have to listen to this Word because it gives evidence of Me, Who is the path Himself, the truth and the life. And if you listen to this Word the path to the goal will be shown to you …. and no-one will be able to say that he had been without guidance on earth if he just entrusts himself to Me, if he wants to reach Me and has the will, not to stand still, but to attain the goal which was given to him for his earthly life. References are made to you time and again because I will not abandon any human being to his fate but Am concerned that they all shall find the right path, however, I cannot to take care of someone who lives without a sense of responsibility, for in order to be able to lead him he has to entrust himself to Me of his own free will. Where this will is missing I will keep Myself back ….

Yet it will always be made easy for him to enter the right path, no compulsion will ever be exercised …. I always demand his free will in order to be able to take his hand and lead him to ascent …. for I can certainly advise and help you yet I will never compel you ….

Amen

The transmission of spiritual gifts from the kingdom of light is an expression of strength, a process which would not be possible if the giving beings lacked strength, if they did not work on God’s behalf. Therefore, where a person receives a thought material which is not gained through thought, a strength is at work, a being which therefore only passes on what it receives itself …. which flows forth from the source of strength from eternity. A power can be recognized when a result emerges beyond the natural ability, when the human being does not use his abilities but is, as it were, inactive himself and yet something comes about which he has not achieved, which therefore demonstrates another power …. which has become recognizably effective for the human being. Own intellectual activity can indeed also produce results which are not to be rejected, but then the human being himself is the producing power, he uses the vitality at his disposal and he will be able to record results according to his abilities. But where the human being’s own intellect takes a back seat, where it behaves passively, where it does not defend itself against expressions of a force, there results emerge which were not determined by the human being’s will but by the will of the force which is now active, which now certainly also allows itself to be determined by the human being’s will by answering questions but the answer itself is completely independent of the human being’s will. Hence it is a thinking power which expresses itself, which is stronger than the human being because it gives something which the human being does not possess …. the knowledge about things which the human being’s intellect cannot fathom. What the human being acquires intellectually is therefore always the result of eager reflection or absorption of knowledge which was again acquired intellectually. And then one cannot speak of the working of a force which lets something arise which was not there before …. but in which the human being himself is uninvolved, only that he receives what has arisen, what the force has brought forth, and appropriates it for himself through subsequent intellectual activity …. Thus receptions from the spiritual kingdom prove the working of a power which therefore has to be recognized as divine because it works in order to bring forth something, whereas a negative power only has a destructive effect and is easily recognizable because it confuses the human being’s thinking but does not sharpen it, because therefore also mental results which have come into being through the influence of negative powers only cause ever more confusion but do not bring enlightenment.

(31.7.1953) Mental activity can indeed also be influenced by good spiritual side and therefore also produce good results, but the human being’s vitality is always effective in mental activity, whereas in transmissions from the spiritual kingdom in the form of the divine word the vitality only becomes active insofar as the receptions are written down, but an unusually active power can be recognized which, although it also expresses itself from within, is obviously connected with a power outside, with a power which can only be sought in the spiritual realm and which legitimizes itself as divine power through the spiritual gifts it brings forth. To want to regard this expression of strength, which people cannot grasp, as the working of God’s counter-spirit is completely refuted by its content, which only seeks to induce people to change their nature into love, to attain perfection, and which imparts knowledge to people which God’s adversary would never give them, but which could also not be proven to be error or a lie if it were seriously examined for it. Although the truth of this cannot be proven either, it can be sensed if the way of life is lived in accordance with the content …. So the word proves itself when it is lived out. And then the divine origin will also be recognized and acknowledged, yet only by those who strive towards God and do not grant God’s adversary any right over them. They also believe in God’s working in the human being, in the working of spiritual forces, in the connection between the spiritual world and people on earth, and they can understand a process which cannot be explained by earthly abilities alone, which visibly proves a radiation from above, a strength emanating from God ….

Amen

I truly don’t want to withhold anything from you, I want to shower you with grace, I want to step into your path and offer you My gift of grace so that you will only change your will and strive towards Me …. You still go other ways and your eyes are still turned towards the world, you don’t let thoughts of Me arise because the world captivates all your thoughts. And yet I also meet you in the midst of the world’s hustle and bustle so that you reflect on yourselves and seriously evaluate the world against what I offer you. Each one of you will be touched by My hand, each one can take hold of My hand if he wants to and then let himself be guided; yet anyone who is self-willed resists and strives away from Me …. And I do not hinder him because he has free will, which I never break by force but only want to change. But I pursue every person with My love and grace …. which he will realize one day when he looks back on his earthly life, when the spiritual kingdom has accepted him and he sees himself and his will, which often rejected My approaches and thereby impeded his spiritual progress. My love is constantly intent on winning his will for Me, and therefore I refrain from doing anything which could contribute towards this. But people don’t recognize Me when I step into their path, they only ever look at Me with worldly eyes, that is, if I speak to them in the word their ears certainly hear it but their heart is not touched by it. And thus I rarely find entrance to a human heart, the world drowns out the soft knocking at the door of his heart, they pay attention to its call but not to the call from above which nevertheless sounds in their ears again and again because I will not give up on the human being as long as he dwells on earth. But if he pays attention to the gentle knocking and opens the door, I will enter him and bring him a delicious gift …. I bring him riches which he cannot acquire in this world …. I bring him a gift that does not make his body happy, but his soul, because it strengthens it and makes it fit for life in eternity …. You humans should think about eternity, about the life of your soul after death …. You should think more often about the fact that your life on earth does not last long, that it is transient, and you should think about what is imperishable …. you should take care of your soul so that it receives on earth what it needs to mature, you should give it strong nourishment which is My word alone, which I Myself convey to you in order to gain you for eternity …. Evaluate your earthly life for life in the spiritual kingdom, have the will to fulfil your earthly purpose of life, then you will also recognize Me if I step into your path, and you will not reject Me if I want to give you My gift of grace, My word, which proclaims My will to you and also conveys strength to you to fulfil it ….

Amen

You should increase the spiritual knowledge and thus also the strength which fills you. With every word conveyed to you from above you receive strength which you can therefore use for constant work on yourselves and your fellow human beings. For the word from above imparts spiritual knowledge to you and is therefore an everlasting treasure, it is a constant source of strength so that you need never feel weak and powerless again, because you can acquire it again at any time by receiving My word …. But consider that I speak to you when I let you hear My word, consider that you make contact with the source of strength yourselves through your will to hear Me …. how should you then go empty-handed if you request and constantly receive from Me? For what I give to you must also take effect as strength, otherwise it would not be of divine origin. The strength shares itself with your soul, and this has an incomparable benefit from it …. It grows and matures for the spiritual kingdom. And therefore you should constantly make this supply of strength possible, you should constantly increase it, you should remain aware of the fact that you cause Me Myself to release My strength as soon as you are willing to hear Me in the word. Your soul matures …. and that is the purpose of your earthly life, thus you also fulfil your earthly task, for if you want to listen to Me, if you desire My address, My word, you will also fulfil what I demand of you through My word …. You will want to fulfil My commandments of love and also receive the strength to be able to fulfil them. With the will to accept My word you profess Me, and thus I profess Myself to you. I give what you demand of Me, strength, light and love in abundance. Don’t let yourselves be oppressed by the fact that your body is sometimes weak, that your physical shell does not obviously feel the strength from Me …. I know why this is necessary for you, and I also know if and when I flow through the body with My strength …. I also let the body receive what it needs, but I recognize better than you what it needs. It concerns your soul, and the body often has to help the soul and therefore take upon itself illness and suffering in order to relieve the soul of these, yet if you come to Me full of trust and present your requests to Me My strength will also flow to you physically, and you will also be able to draw this strength from My word, which the body only feels if you have attained a strength of faith which allows for such. Believe Me, I will give you what you desire, yet you must also take from Me the unlimited influx of My strength …. You should increase the strength within you so that the body will also come into its possession, which can only be considered when it no longer happens at the expense of the soul …. But you may take in abundance …. Therefore request, constantly come to Me and let Me speak to you, accept My word and let the strength of the word become effective, and you will be able to create and work, you will be able to use the strength flowing to you spiritually and earthly for your own and your fellow human beings’ salvation ….

Amen

Use all your strength to bring help to the people living in darkness on earth as well as to the souls in the beyond who are still unredeemed and also need your help to reach the light. Don’t let an hour pass without remembering these souls, i.e., arrange your daily work such that you always give them as much time as possible to give them a silent prayer, a hint to Jesus Christ or also enlighten people on earth who listen to you. Be labourers in the vineyard of the lord at every hour, don’t neglect your most important activity, don’t forget it above your earthly activity. It is certainly a lot to ask of you to completely put the world in the background, to constantly turn your thoughts towards the spiritual kingdom while you still live on earth and are also forced to take up the battle with life, yet believe that you will not feel the struggle for existence in such a way that you can confidently entrust your earthly worries to the One Who has taken you into His service, believe that He will take care of His servants and co-workers if only they eagerly do the work for which they have entrusted themselves to Him …. to help the lost on earth and in the beyond to find the right path …. And you should always take the time for this, you should shift your field of work more into the spiritual kingdom than into the earthly world …. you should bear in mind that people on earth have to carry out this work because the human being’s free will must not be endangered; you should not forget that the prayer of people on earth is also of utmost value for the souls in the beyond and that the first help must also be brought to them through you, because the work of the beings of light in the spiritual kingdom can only start when you have given so much strength to the souls through your intercession, through your mental instructions, that they are now also willing to listen to the beings of light. Therefore, don’t let a day go by when you haven’t worked for the kingdom of God, and always be certain of My blessing, for the salvation of many souls from darkness is at stake, it is the help which shall still be given to souls in the last days who cannot detach themselves from dark power on their own, who need light in order to find their way out of the night of death into the light of life ….

Amen

Achieving a considerable advancement in your spiritual growth also demands a considerable amount of self-denial, a strong will and firm faith. You will hardly make progress if you don’t eagerly strive for it, if you conduct yourselves indifferently when you actually should fight, be it against your own cravings or against everything that obstructs your soul’s maturing, you must always bear the goal in mind in order to spur yourselves into constant struggling and striving, you must not deceive yourselves by estimating yourselves higher than your maturity of soul permits, you must be severely critical of yourselves, since only when you have recognised your faults and weaknesses will you tackle them. This requires a strong will, but it will always be strengthened through calling upon Jesus Christ, for this reason you also need to have a strong faith at your disposal. You can achieve anything with His help, including great spiritual progress, rising above yourselves and constant increase of your strength of love, which then will also accomplish whatever you strive for. Yet you will not take a single step forward without struggle, without loving activity and without prayer …. For loving activity and prayer guarantee your union with God and thus an already large advancement upwards, because coming closer to God is the goal you are intended to reach, so that every battle will subsequently become easier and always result in victory. What you yourselves cannot possibly achieve becomes possible through loving activity and prayer …. And therefore you will always have these two fail-safe means if you are serious about achieving spiritual progress, you need only muster the will to turn to God in prayer and attain His love through loving activity …. In that case you will not go short, then you can be certain of success and only your depth of faith determines how long it will take to reach your goal …. And you need only appeal to Jesus Christ to strengthen your faith and will, you need only avail yourselves of the blessings of His act of Salvation, which will remedy every weakness and also promise success. For He gives strength to all those who call upon Him because they believe in Him ….

Amen

When My presence is proven to you in the form of the transmission of My word then all weakness, all anxiety and worry must fall away from you, for then you will know that I am with you and that everything can only take place according to My will, because I Myself watch over you so that you will become and remain suitable for the work you are to do for Me and My kingdom. Everything, even the smallest event, is arranged in such a way that it serves this work …. And even if you believe that you are prevented from doing so by earthly worries, you are nevertheless mistaken, for these only aim to make you ever more closely united with Me so that I can influence you even more without encountering any opposition from you. I want to draw you completely to Me, I want your earthly life to move more and more in a spiritual direction, I want Me to become so indispensable to you that you will always feel connected to Me, that you will never ever switch Me off again if you make a decision, even if it has an earthly purpose. I want to be the beginning and the end of your life, and I can only achieve this if I sometimes let you get into adversity and distress which drives you to Me, which lets you find the child’s path to the father. As long as you live in the world, the world will also approach you with its temptations and demands …. yet you should never face them alone but have Me in constant company, and you will see how easily you can resist, how easily you will meet the demands earthly life still places on you. You will never have cause to worry or be anxious, for people cannot do anything against you as soon as you have Me as your companion. Yet you often walk your paths alone, you don’t let Me walk beside you because you exclude Me from your thoughts, because the image of the world comes between us and you suddenly no longer see Me but give your attention to the world …. Then you will be hit by small blows, you will be exposed to small adversities which will frighten you and make you take refuge in Me again, but where you will always find help and be safe. You don’t need to worry because I will never leave you, I just want you to consciously long for My closeness, that you not only long for help but for Me Myself and My presence, and then every worry will fall away from you because I will take it over, Who loves you and therefore wants to become indispensable to you ….

Amen

He who languishes in darkness shall receive light as soon as he desires it. My merciful love applies to all these unhappy beings who, partly in the flesh and partly in the spirit, are in a state which is agonizing and sad because they cannot release themselves from it and are dependent on loving help. It is certainly their own fault, for they could reach the light as long as they live on earth, yet I do not reject them for this reason but again and again help them up to the light as soon as they want to be helped. But precisely their will often pushes back the loving hand which stretches itself towards them, and then darkness remains their fate until they change their will. Yet again and again I let rays of light flash to release them from their torpor, to let them feel a benefit for seconds which shall move them to long for such rays of light …. For only then can they be helped, only then can they be given what they desire …. A redemption from the abyss always signifies a comprehensive work of salvation, for a single soul draws countless souls up with it because it knows the adversity itself and cannot help but help the suffering souls as soon as it has received a glimmer of light itself. And therefore the salvation of a single soul is an indescribable blessing, which has an even greater effect in the kingdom of the beyond than on earth, for the soul which still dwells on earth does not feel the state of darkness so much and can also muster little understanding again if it is offered a light. But the work of redemption, which is successful in the beyond, will have a great effect, for these souls lack everything and a ray of light is an overwhelming abundance for them which they now also want to distribute. But light means realization …. As soon as a soul is given a glimmer of knowledge it always desires more knowledge, it also grasps everything immediately as soon as the will is in it to attain knowledge. And with knowledge the desire to give it away also grows in it, and love is kindled in the soul, and the path to ascent is taken …. Where only a weak will is recognizable I help, and My means are truly wise and loving …. I don’t want to leave My living creations in the abyss, I know that they are too weak themselves, that they need help, and I send them this help in many ways, always such that the soul’s will is stimulated, so that I Myself can then approach it, so that it will be touched by a ray of My strength of love and awaken …. I send forth My rays of love into My adversary’s darkest realms. He cannot prevent Me, yet he likewise affects the souls of darkness, yet a spark of love already weakens his power and strengthens the soul …. And you humans should kindle this spark of love in them through your intercession, through loving remembrance, which you give to these souls by consciously helping them, by instructing them in thought, by informing them of their redeemer Jesus Christ, Who is their salvation and Whom they can call upon at any time for strength and grace and forgiveness of their sins. You humans can contribute a great deal to accomplish a work of salvation, and if it is only one soul which you have helped, which you have released from satan’s shackles, then an unspeakable amount has been gained, for every soul has its followers who, as it were, are also saved, because the soul itself does this in its gratitude and bliss, which is transferred to the unhappy souls, and thus eager co-workers are gained with every saved soul who participate in the work of salvation in the kingdom of the beyond. My love does not abandon any of My living creations, and I bless all who serve Me and help to release the wretched from their situation ….

Amen

The distance from Me cannot be reduced by My will, instead, your will must accomplish this alone, for My will did not disown you, instead, you left Me of your own free will; you rejected Me and thereby created a gulf between yourselves and Me which you will now have to bridge yourselves if you want to come back to Me. I Myself will welcome you with open arms again if you return into your Father’s house. But I will never bring you back to Me against your will, because I Am less interested in possessing you than in your love for Me, which will subsequently change your will so that you return to Me voluntarily. However, a return to Me signifies unlimited bliss, and thus you can and must create your own state of happiness, it cannot be given to you by Me if the prerequisite that your will is turned towards Me does not exist. I Am willing to give you everything, I will truly not deny you anything you desire …. yet it is not possible for Me to enslave your will since then I Myself would have to contravene My law of eternal order, for My living creations were created in My image, these beings had to possess free will because they emerged from Me in perfection …. and anything that was externalised by Me in perfection can certainly become imperfect of its own will yet not through My will, hence it was able to turn its will away from Me, but I cannot now enslave the free will and thereby remove from My living creation the evidence of its divine origin. For I Am perfect and therefore do not contravene My eternal order …. Hence I cannot prevent people from sinning and leading a wrong way of life, I cannot force them to believe in Me and even less force to them love Me, thus to return to Me again …. I can only do everything which might, yet does not have to change their will, otherwise no distant being would truly exist any longer but neither would there be a free and happy being of perfection. Free will is the fundamental law of eternity …. and it is also the fundamental law in every being created by Me …. You humans must accept this explanation for the conditions on Earth which seem so imperfect to you and which only the human being’s free will can change. What My power can accomplish has already been achieved by My love; however, where the freedom of your will must be preserved only you can become active yourselves, and My love will grant you every support, it is, after all, My own will that you should return to Me. And even if eternities pass by before you strive towards Me of your own free will again, I will nevertheless never guide you back forcibly, because it is My will that you shall attain your original state of perfection once more, because it is My will that you, as My children, voluntarily surrender to Me in love ….

Amen

Learn to look at the world not as an end in itself but as a means to an end …. Then you will also value your earthly life differently, you will not make it the aim of all your wishes and desires but seek your aim elsewhere. Anyone who only values earthly life, who only strives for things which are earthly and make physical life pleasant, who only strives to create a carefree earthly life which brings him fulfilment, also sees this earthly life as an end in itself, and his thinking is wrong. For it is only a means to an end …. Earthly life is given to the human being in order to acquire another life, a life which lasts forever but is not lived by the body but only by the soul. Anyone who thinks about the fact that he only inhabits the earth for a short time, that he himself cannot determine the time of his life on earth, that another being above him determines the duration of his earthly life, anyone who thinks about the fact that he himself also does not determine the course of his earthly life, but that it has to be covered by him according to destiny, as the being above him wants it, he should already see from this that a purpose is connected with his earthly life, that some success is to be achieved in the time of change on this earth. But this is not what people think about who are solely turned towards the material world and want to live it up to a certain extent. Rather, the fact that their life is a limited one is a reason for them to take from it what they can, for they do not think of the hereafter but only of the present, which they try to shape according to their wishes and desires. They demand proof that there is a continuation of life; they only evaluate what they see and reject all thoughts that remind them of an afterlife. They value earthly life too highly …. and yet would not be able to value it highly enough if they looked at it with spiritual eyes …. And the world truly offers them enough pleasures which they don’t want to give up for the sake of an unprovable life after death …. And yet they could create evidence for themselves if they earnestly wished it …. For nothing on earth is permanent, everything passes away, just as man himself passes away according to the body. But one thing remains undeniable even for the most unbelieving person: the all-sustaining and ever-new creating power …. For it is demonstrable that creation remains in existence, or rather that it constantly renews itself, and thus bears witness to a power that cannot perish eternally and will therefore also work eternally …. And every human being should strive to relate this strength to himself, then the human being himself would also be convinced that it is also active in him and cannot pass away even after death. Since man is a living, power-proving work of creation, this power must therefore also be in him and only leave the shell at death, but still be able to continue to work as power in the universe. It therefore only changes its abode but cannot eternally pass away …. For this strength is an emanation of the being Who created everything. And anyone who has once gained this realization also only regards earthly life as a transitional stage where the strength manifested itself in a person for the purpose of specific activity …. to overcome everything material in order to be able to be active as completely free after the death of the body, but this is only possible by overcoming matter, not by striving for it and increasing it, and thus chains of strength to things which do not last. These things then burden the human being’s immortal, the soul, which is now powerless, although it is God’s emanation of strength in itself, yet it is still surrounded by dense shells which deprive it of all freedom, but which it could certainly have gained in earthly life if it had recognized and striven for the purpose of it ….

Amen

You shall be My witnesses on the new earth, you shall give evidence of Me and My glory, of My might and love, for you will experience all these at the end of this earth …. you will see Me coming in the clouds in radiant brilliance of My splendour …. you will feel My love when I save you from utmost hardship, when I remove you before your fellow human beings’ eyes who, with a truly satanic mind, have every intention to kill you. You shall experience the evidence of My power, because the last work of destruction on this earth will take place before your eyes. And thus you will enter the kingdom of peace with an experience which you are meant to remember in order to bear witness to future generations, to people who will only receive knowledge about the events on the old earth on account of your information, so that they, in turn, will pass it on again and thereby uphold the knowledge on the new earth for a long time. You shall bear witness to Me and My glory ….

A devout generation, faithfully devoted to Me, will indeed populate the new earth, who will not doubt My strength and might, My love and perfection. And as long as I Myself can dwell amongst them because their faith and love for Me allows for it, it will not be necessary for you to testify of your experience …. But as soon as new generations come forth from them they will have to be given the knowledge again and the end process of the old earth has to be particularly emphasised, so that these new generations will also intimately unite with Me in order to be and remain My children …. The living testimony will have a remarkable effect on their hearts, and they too shall proclaim in future times what they received from you …. Then faith and love for Me will be upheld for a long time, for a long time the human generation will live in peace and unity, in harmony with the Infinite, in constant contact with Me, and My spirit will be able to flow into their hearts, they will be able to hear My Word and be blissfully happy.

And yet, even this situation will change. At first the influence of adverse powers will be only slightly noticeable and then gradually get ever stronger …. For the constrained spiritual substances in creation will arrive at the stage of embodiment as human beings once more, and these will have developed in different ways, so tendencies and instincts will surface in their human state which require more changes, which will still betray a tiny resistance to Me, and therefore human beings who need special, more effective methods of education …. will live on earth again. And then it will be necessary to inform them about what effect a way of life in opposition to Me will have. Then the battle between light and darkness will start anew, for the desire for matter will start to grow stronger in people’s hearts again, they will no longer be able to hear My Word directly, and messengers of My Word will speak to them on My behalf. And for the sake of a living message, testimony shall also be given of the end of the old and the beginning of the new earth ….

And therefore, those of you humans of earth who will experience the end, who will remain faithful to Me until the end, will also have a task on the new earth …. to make sure that the knowledge is preserved, that the following generation will be able to keep these events in mind, that it will be inspired to remain in My will, that it will let Me come alive within its heart and always endeavour to reach Me ….

Amen

I want to speak to those who are not yet able to make the right decision, who are not unwilling to believe and yet cannot acknowledge Me with conviction either; to those who oppose the knowledge which My representatives on earth want to make accessible to them with their intellectual knowledge …. to those, who first want everything proven to them and believe that they can understand or refute it with their sharp intellect. Their knowledge kills the spirit …. What is described as higher truth, what cannot be proven in an earthly sense, because compulsory faith may not be exercised in earthly life, cannot be fathomed scientifically and even the sharpest human intellect is no guarantee for correct thinking on the spiritual level. I want to put this question to you humans: in which category of the works of creation do you place yourselves? Don’t you realise that you are the only thinking and reasoning beings, whereas all other works of creation are unable to exhibit this thinking ability and freedom of thought?

From this alone you can conclude that you were created by a Power which is equally capable of thinking, which is merely infinitely powerful, for despite your faculty of thought you are incapable of creating living beings with the same faculty of thought …. You cannot quote your offspring as evidence, since you do not create them yourselves but merely fit in with existing natural laws which also provide you with evidence of a law-giver. Consider furthermore: Is a ‘natural force’ capable of thought? …. That is, is it able to bring beings into existence whose organism testifies of supreme wisdom? Would this natural force itself not have to be recognised and acknowledged as a Being with an ability of thought and will and thus be able to create and give life to expedient forms? And is the work of creation not sufficient evidence in itself even for the most intellectually astute philosophers? Indeed, would you be able to substantiate the ‘non-existence’ of a Being …. would you even be able to vaguely quote a comparison as evidence that a force brings forth orderly creations unless this force meets its match in a human being’s will?

Let a force become uncontrollably active and you will have a dreadful experience but you will not be able to produce creations whose expedience and order you can admire …. Thus, by virtue of your intellect alone you are able to acknowledge a Supreme Being Which you have to regard as the Creator of eternity …. It truly does you no honour that you want to deny this Being, that you merely want to explain His activity, which is visible to you in His creation, as the effect of an unguided force, that you thus want to base the emergence of creation on an unconscious and blind process. Such an explanation is truly no evidence of a correctly employed intellect, on the contrary, it is a defiant evasion which you are looking for because you do not want to acknowledge a God …. for even with just a weak will both possibilities are considered first, and then a person will rather decide to accept than to reject a spiritually tangible Power which reveals itself in creation.

If you humans knew the serious effect a rejection, a denial of a spiritually tangible Deity has on your soul you would also understand why I want to enlighten you, why I want to stimulate you to seriously think about it so that you will give your misguided thoughts the right direction of your own accord, so that you will be able to believe what seems unacceptable to you as long as you just make one-sided judgments, as long as you believe that you can intellectually ascertain the truth. But the belief in a God and Creator is necessary in order to make a connection with this God and Creator …. And this connection with Him is the real purpose and goal of earthly life …. otherwise you would truly not have been allowed to embody yourselves on this earth, which was only created for the purpose of My living creation being able to re-establish the unity with God which he once had voluntarily severed. If, however, you deny a God then it means that you are still very distant from Me, it signifies renewed opposition to Me of your own free will which will incur a dreadful fate in the beyond or a repeated banishment into matter when the end of this earth has arrived. Therefore I would like to address you and encourage you to think it through before it is too late, and even if your earthly knowledge is extensive …. you will with certainty penetrate far more profound knowledge if you entrust yourselves to the One Who has created you and Who wants to be recognised as your God and Creator of eternity in order to then helpfully assist you ….

Amen

Through contact with the spiritual kingdom a steady flow of strength is set into motion, and this flow of strength is effective wherever the same striving towards ascent is noticeable; but the effect of the strength is also recognisable where the human being is not striving consciously but is not offering any resistance either, for he begins to open himself, he takes notice and observes everything that might relate to the spiritual kingdom in order to form his own opinion. You, My servants on earth, should believe that you do not go past your fellow human beings without being noticed …. believe, that your actions and work find attention and that this is already the effect of the emission of strength generated by you, only that this effect, having a spiritual cause, can only be spiritually observed. It will express itself in your fellow human beings’ thoughts, which are not obvious to you but can cause a person’s inner change. And if people on earth won’t derive a benefit from the flow of strength, then the souls in the beyond will, since no thought is hidden from them as soon as they want to learn from you, who follow the path in accordance with My will.

Every influx of strength through prayer or loving actions, through conveying My Word on earth or through reading this Word aloud, is visible to these souls as a ray of light and experienced by them as a blessing if they are willing to accept it. And therefore you are always surrounded by souls which want to draw strength from you. Indeed, your fellow human beings would also be able to derive an abundance of strength from you if they would listen to you and partake of My Word’s grace of strength, yet their will is not altogether interested in obtaining spiritual wealth because they are still paying too much attention to the world; whereas only what you offer to the souls in the beyond is felt by them as strength, as blissful relief, since the flow of strength conveyed to them by the beings of light will only be recognised as strength when they have gained their first realisation …. when they, due to your help, have found the gate from the realm of darkness or twilight into the light. They are still too near to earth and thus can be more easily educated from earth than by the beings of light.

These beings of light are already behind them as helpers and make it easy for them to understand what they are offered by you. But they are at all times within the cycle of My divine strength, they are always affected by the strength of My love and feel its effect, I Am just not able to influence them directly as long as they are still in opposition to Me, as long as they are still in the area of darkness from where you, however, can release them through loving instructions, through intercession and mental influence. All kind thoughts have the effect of strength, on earth as well as in the spiritual kingdom. And therefore you should only send your fellow human beings good thoughts, and you will also give them the strength that can help them to change their attitude …. for all good thoughts, intentions and actions have a redeeming effect, since it is strength, which will never remain ineffective ….

Amen

Influencing spiritual adversity should be your greatest concern; you should help to lead people back to faith, by imparting the truth give them something that seems credible to them, you should give to them what you received from Me Myself and lead them out of spiritual darkness which still keeps them captive and will bring about their ruin if they don’t escape it before it is too late. The day of the end draws ever closer and humankind has no idea what is about to happen …. because it ignores what has been proclaimed since the beginning of this period of Salvation, because it does not believe what seers and prophets have predicted on My instructions. And thus it approaches the end totally unaware, for it rejects the knowledge with which it is presented because it considers it incredible …. And the only option left is to offer this knowledge to people time and again and to inform them that they are not offered human intellectual knowledge but that it has been conveyed to you by Me Myself in order to inform humanity of the forthcoming event …. I take pity on people that the end will find them unprepared, I take pity because the humanly distorted religious doctrines are the reason for their total unbelief, and because I would like to help them find the right belief I send you to meet them in order to instruct them in My name …. in order to offer them in all purity that which they have so far rejected because it was spoilt.

Give them food which is palatable and lets them desire more, so that their soul will be strengthened and they won’t want to miss this nourishment for the soul anymore …. Spread My Gospel amongst the people and remember the great spiritual hardship which can only be remedied by passing on My Word, and don’t exclude anyone, for all of those who do not yet belong to My church, who have no living faith in Me and My teaching as yet, suffer this hardship …. For it is a huge mistake that people belong to the church founded by Me if they merely verbally confess a school of thought, if they don’t have a living faith and are subject to the working of the spirit …. These, however, know about the end, they know what to expect and that there is only little time left until the end …. Yet only a few know about it, because there are only a few in whom My spirit can work, who belong in truth to My church which I founded Myself. This is why spiritual hardship is so extensive, and this is why you should work diligently in order to still win people over for My church, in order to inform them of the near end and to caution them to eagerly work at improving their soul, so that it will not go lost when the end has come …. so that they, by belonging to My church, will remain faithful to Me during the last battle of faith until I come to fetch My Own into My kingdom …. Take My Word to them which will give them light and strength providing they are willing to hear and accept it in their hearts …. help them to find faith and lead them out of the great adversity before it is too late ….

Amen

That which should lead you humans to salvation is conveyed to you by Me. You are in danger of failing in the battle of passing your test of will because you don’t use the right means, because your faith is still weak and you don’t take the path which guarantees the strengthening of your will …. the path to Jesus Christ …. Belief in Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation is the only assured means of passing your test of will, but precisely this belief is lacking in humanity. This is why it must first arise in the human being again, because attaining the goal without Him is simply impossible. Therefore the knowledge about Jesus Christ, about His human manifestation and His act of Salvation should first come alive again in people …. they shall be taught correctly what kind of mission Jesus had to fulfil on Earth, why this mission was necessary and why the soul of Jesus, the human being, offered to accomplish this act of Salvation …. Truthful knowledge about the divine Redeemer shall be given to people so that their faith can arise and come alive, because this will also ensure that they will reach the goal on earth. In order to instruct people truthfully about this problem of God’s human manifestation in Jesus Christ, it is furthermore necessary to provide them with further clarification …. about the world and its purpose, about the origin of the living beings and the reason for the entire work of Creation …. The human being shall be able to understand what Jesus Christ’s mission consisted of, so that he will subsequently live a meaningful and appropriate life on earth and …. because he is too weak by himself …. avail himself of Jesus Christ’s help to do so …. The human being must be taught truthfully so that he will use his life on earth correctly, so that it will not be lived unsuccessfully, without attaining spiritual perfection, which can certainly be achieved if only he makes use of the right means.

That which Jesus Christ once taught to people as My Word is for many people a Word without life, which they certainly remember on account of their upbringing but which so far has been unable to take effect because it does not reach their hearts. People do not assess this Word, they take offence at distorted teachings and deem themselves entitled to reject everything, they do not allow My Word to come alive through the spirit ….So time and again I try to present My Word such that they can feel the life themselves, so that a longing for being constantly addressed by Me awakens in them …. And I can only do this in a way that every person is offered what is of interest to him, for I also want to win those people who are no longer in contact with Me, who don’t want to accept anything which until now was known to them as religious knowledge …. who would like to detach themselves from everything and who shall now be caught by Me again …. who I pursue with love in order to motivate them once again to listen to Me and to form an opinion about My Word …. For this I need devoted servants who work on My instructions and according to My will …. who listen to My Words, remember them and pass them on …. I need people who let themselves be guided by their feeling, through which I speak to them Myself …. I need people who do not offer Me resistance, whom I can educate so that they then will be able to work with the received knowledge and indeed do so in realisation of the importance of their task of bringing people My Gospel as a living Word …. just as it came forth from Me …. Only this living Word can awaken life again …. Jesus Christ must be eagerly proclaimed because humanity is in danger of remaining unredeemed, since it no longer wants to acknowledge Him and yet must do so if they are to achieve their task of earthly life …. And this shall be the evidence for the doubters again that it is I Myself Who reveals Himself: that Jesus Christ is professed through My Word and that the avowal of Him is demanded of everyone who wants to attain life …. And anyone with the serious will of knowing the truth will find the evidence in the fact that I Myself can be recognised as the Giver of a teaching which places Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation at the forefront of anything else and wants to lead people to salvation, which can only be found in Jesus Christ ….

Amen

Accept from Me what serves you for the salvation of your soul. You could truly shape yourselves in a short time so that you could enter the kingdom of light and all adversity would come to an end for you. But you lack the will, and My will cannot bring about your transformation because you shall become free, blissful creatures. What you do not do by yourselves cannot be done for you as substitute help either, instead, every person has to take responsibility himself whether and how he makes use of his earthly life, and he has to bear the consequences in the life of the beyond himself. Yet as long as he still lives on earth My love will not let up to encourage him to change his nature. I meet him in My word, again and again pointing out to him the effects of his earthly life in a good and in an evil sense, because such ideas offer a possibility for the human being to reflect on the state of his soul and want to improve it. Through My word I also hold out the prospect of the near end with all its manifestations, with its tribulation and hardship and with the last judgment …. But everything is in vain if I don’t find faith in people …. And therefore it is of utmost importance that faith first comes alive in people …. faith in a God and creator of eternity Who wants to be recognized by people as father, and faith in Jesus Christ, the redeemer of the world, in Whom I embodied Myself in order to be recognized and loved by people whose love I desire. Everything that now helps to attain faith, to find it again or to strengthen a weak faith is work in My vineyard, for which I always require servants who shall carry out this work in order to help the whole of humanity …. I therefore instruct My servants to always do such work for Me which helps fellow human beings to believe …. But since a right faith has to be such that even the intellect can profess it, it is understandable that only truth will be able to satisfy the heart and the intellect, that what the human being recognizes as truth and thus believes, even without proof, cannot be refuted by the intellect either …. Thus, in order to be able to believe, truth must absolutely be offered, for I do not demand blind faith, no acceptance of teachings which are unacceptable to the intellect despite good will …. I require a living faith, a full inner conviction of what is to be believed, because evidence for it cannot be produced in earthly life …. And the human being can gain this full inner conviction as soon as he is introduced to truth which gives him an enlightenment which touches the willing person’s heart and also his intellect such that it fully convinces him. This is why the most important work of a servant in My vineyard is to distribute truth and thus first receive it himself, because no human being can give something he does not possess himself. My servant shall carry out the work on earth in My stead …. he shall only be the organ which is active for Me …. My servant shall lend Me his mouth so that I may speak through him …. and what I now speak is adapted to the spiritual state of people and also of the individual. What I now speak will always be what the person addressed by Me needs. I will always scatter that seed in the field which has the prospect of sprouting and bearing fruit …. For I know people’s hearts, the field which is to be worked in order to bear manifold fruit, and I will always offer people that which helps them to have a convinced faith. And thus you, My servants, shall also only ever carry out My will by receiving My instructions, by accepting My word directly from Me and spreading it into people’s hearts, who …. because it is purest truth …. are now also willing to believe as long as they are of good will. People shall get to know Me as I truly am, so that they will trust Me and now unite themselves, so that they will voluntarily come to the one Who met them in the word and made Himself known …. They shall learn to believe in Me in order to be able to love Me as well, and of their own accord they shall now seek to change in order to come close to Me, in order to become like Me, Whom they recognized as God and father, because they were taught the truth ….

Amen

What use is it that I speak urgently to people if they close their ears and don’t listen to My voice, what use is it that I announce the end to them and warn and admonish them if they don’t believe what they are told, what is conveyed to them from above through My servants and prophets. Nevertheless, I do not cease to address every individual person, and if it does not happen through My word I touch people’s hearts in another way, for everything that fatefully takes hold of them is a touch from Me which happens so that he finds the path to Me and learns to believe. Everything that testifies to Me will be rejected by the person whose will still resists Me, but as soon as he is willing everything also proves Me Myself to him, he no longer doubts, he believes in Me because the abandonment of his resistance already brings him light, for I accept him who no longer resists Me and help him to find his way to Me. And My word can also be brought to a willing person, he will gladly and joyfully accept it, he will believe that it is offered to him by Me Myself, and he will also believe that the end is near, he will believe the seers and prophets because he will now also think correctly. And thus you, My servants on earth, can only be successful with your fellow human beings if you try to induce them to give up their resistance against Me …. if you speak more of My love than of the judgment, which will certainly come irrevocably but only because the order of eternity has to be restored, which can only be where My will is observed and followed without resistance. People must first experience that they themselves have stepped out of order due to their rebelliousness and unkindness and that they have created a state of tribulation and hardship for themselves. They must know that I do not want to punish but educate people into beings which completely move within My eternal order …. that I only send judgment upon earth because My will is completely disregarded and because a chaotic state has to come over people who live against My will. Where people are found who recognize people’s spiritual low and want to help people find their way back to Me, they have the opportunity to influence people, albeit not always with the same success. Admonitions and warnings do not always bear fruit, and therefore the end and the judgment shall also be mentioned, but far more My word shall be proclaimed, which can enliven hearts through its strength and as a truly divine means can still have an effect on people who are not yet completely hardened. But those who are hardened of will also remain unimpressed by all references to the end …. And even if they were directly addressed by Me …. they would still not believe that it is I Myself Who has addressed them …. For they do not give up their resistance against Me …. and thus My strength of love can no longer take effect either, because the will is still fundamentally directed against Me ….

Amen

Consider the earth merely as a school for the spirit, as a place for your soul to mature, which still has to pass through a school before it can enter the spiritual kingdom. You cannot be forcefully shaped in a way that makes you suitable for the spiritual kingdom; you have to transform yourselves …. And for that reason life on earth was given to you …. But you humans don’t recognise the purpose and goal of earthly life …. you misinterpret it, you only strive to benefit your body without thinking of your soul …. you look at the earth as an end in itself, whereas it is only the means to an end …. the means for the spirit to attain final maturity.

The real task is to pass the test of volition which you should accomplish during your life on earth and which must be taken in complete freedom. For that reason you will only receive enlightenment about the meaning and purpose of earthly life when you consider this question seriously yourselves. However, God gave you intelligence which allows you to pose the question as to why and for what reason you are on earth …. There are enough incentives around you which can cause you to ask this question but it has to come entirely and freely from within yourselves in order to be answered correctly as well. Even the worldly human being should occupy himself with this question, even he should occasionally think about the cause and purpose of earthly existence, providing he takes the time to occupy himself with such thoughts ….

He certainly should not see the purpose of his life in the satisfaction of his body’s wishes and desires, but if he does then the thought of death will always frighten or unsettle him too …. or he will reject all thoughts of that nature by believing that he will cease to exist after death. Only someone who doesn’t think much could have this opinion because he would find enough proof during his earthly life to teach him to think otherwise, if only he seriously investigated the problem of life after death. The human being was given intellect …. but if he does not use it he will exist from day to day like an animal because the correct use of intelligence will enable him to think and behave differently …. it will enable him to live consciously. However, the worldly human being who believes earthly life to be an end in itself has not used his intelligence correctly yet. He has only activated it into one direction, he has not yet thought about a spiritual world which also can be accepted to exist outside the physical world …. otherwise the human being would have the unrestricted right of determination over the whole of creation, therefore over the natural processes and his own destiny too ….

For as long as the human being himself is dependent on a higher power, on a higher will, which is proved to him by the course of his earthly life, he also has to acknowledge a world or a region where this higher power presides. Since he knows that he is at the mercy of this power, that this power determines the course of his life, he also has to ask himself why and for what purpose his earthly life happens as it does …. and whether he is achieving this purpose, which cannot be merely a physical life of pleasure but is more likely to be a spiritual development …. The human being can come to this mental conclusion as soon as he has the will to receive enlightenment about whether earthly life is an end in itself or only the means to an end …. The gift of intelligence should and must be considered because one day he will be held responsible for his will to oppose everything that God gave to him to attain his goal on earth ….

Amen

I cannot force you humans to respect and be active according to My will …. I can merely time and again inform you of the fact that only compliance with My will signifies a life within divine order and that actions to the contrary will result in misery for you. And I truly do not fail to draw your attention to the consequences of a wrongly inclined will …. You are beings with intellect and free will, however, your will remains wrongly directed as long as you don’t make correct use of your intellect. I do not force the will yet I repeatedly try to stimulate the intellect to deliberate on My will, which I revealed to people …. for if I expect you to enter My will I must also make My will known to you. And no-one can really claim that this will of Mine is unknown to him, for it was also placed into his heart …. The human being can sense My will in him as it inspires him to do what is right and warns him against evil thoughts, intentions and actions …. Yet I also send My messengers to people who shall bring My Gospel to them …. who shall proclaim My will which only consists of loving God above all else and their neighbour as themselves …. which thus means, that a life of love will always be a life in divine order and the fulfilment of My will …. However, the less people mentally try to adopt My will, the less attention they pay to the inner voice, the more necessary it becomes to proclaim My will, My Word, My Gospel to them …. to bring My teaching of love to them, for they exist in a hardened or numbed state, caused by the influence of the earthly world. And from this state they must lovingly be aroused, they must be informed of the great danger such a state signifies for their souls …. they must be guided into divine order again, which can still be achieved if a person, who moves within divine order himself, lovingly takes care of his fellow human beings, if he makes an effort to make My will known and My Word accessible to them. People should not merely be shaken up from their sleep of death, but the path to life should be shown to them with kindness …. For people are blind and no longer find it by themselves …. And only those who resist, who don’t want to let themselves be guided, should continue on their own paths, for they have free will and must also justify themselves for it one day. Yet as long as a human mouth is capable of speaking he should preach with love and thus, as My representative, proclaim My teaching of love, and people will not be able to say that they had no knowledge of My will. I don’t expect the fulfilment of My will without informing people of it, and as long as the Earth exists I will send My messengers into the world in order to spread My Word. For this Word of Mine does not force the human being’s will but it can turn it in the right direction and save the person from the night of death ….

Amen
