Happiness and gratitude of redeemed souls ….
B.D. 6423 from December 12th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
With an exuberant feeling of gratitude I Am praised and glorified by souls which were delivered from their torment through loving intercession, which had realised that they, owing to their weak will, would have been incapable of liberating themselves, and which were able to strengthen their will through the merciful love of people on earth …. which then appealed to Me in Jesus Christ and were subsequently raised by Me from the abyss …. Hence they want to express their happiness, giving all their love to the One Who has delivered them and, never tiring of praising and thanking Him …. they want to do the same by also helping the unredeemed souls, which they know are still languishing in darkness, to attain the same bliss …. People’s loving assistance on earth makes it easier for these souls if they can receive from people what they urgently need themselves in order to give it to the unhappy souls; they have to receive light themselves to be able to let the light shine, and they can always receive light when it is emanated by God into eternity ….
Wherever this light is received, wherever vessels open themselves into which the light of God’s love can flow, there are places of light and strength which are surrounded by innumerable souls requesting light …. and every soul’s degree of maturity, degree of love and degree of desire determines how much light will flow to each soul …. yet every soul seeks to raise this amount by constantly giving and passing it on …. Once a soul has received light it cannot help itself but communicate with other souls, the light illuminates strength which is used by the soul. Hence it is extremely significant when a soul from the abyss has found its way to the light, when it has willingly accepted being illuminated, for then it will receive a constant flow of light because it will have totally surrendered its resistance as a result of the indescribable feeling of happiness caused by the emanation of light. And it will certainly pass the light on in order to make other souls happy too …. Light, however, is wisdom …. the realisation of truth ….
And this light is conveyed to them by My Word, which constantly comes forth from Me as emanation of love, which could affect all spiritual beings in eternity but which will only find a response where there is no resistance …. Beings with the highest maturity of soul are able to receive it directly, whereas weaker beings will have to accept it from them in turn, but My Word always signifies light …. And for that reason My Word will always generate happiness, but only in the beings who want light, which is also the reason why every person on earth proclaiming My Word is surrounded by beings wishing to receive light …. Yet only the pure Word will shine forth into the darkness …. And the pure Word will in turn be received from God Himself again …. I Myself convey it to earth in order to establish places of light wherever souls can obtain what they need and what makes them happy …. It is irrelevant as to whether these places of light are established in the spiritual kingdom or on earth, for the same light shines everywhere, the eternal truth from Me …. But souls in the beyond will often visit a place of light on earth if they are still unable to find their way about in the spiritual kingdom and stay in the vicinity of earth ….
However, precisely these souls are in the majority, and receiving My Word is often the only salvation for these souls, it represents extraordinary help for them which they believe they cannot reward gratefully enough and are therefore exceedingly active helpers in the spiritual kingdom …. who continually praise and glorify Me and create real uproar in the darker regions because they won’t rest until they have persuaded all souls to follow them to where they shall also be touched by a ray of light …. Their redeeming activity has infinite consequences, for My Word is immensely powerful, which is beyond measure to you humans on earth, nevertheless, you should gather around the source I have opened for you, so that you will already be permeated by light when you enter the spiritual kingdom, when you have to leave earth, and then be able to share it again in order to constantly increase your own beatitude ….
Amen

Surprise ending …. clear signs ….
B.D. 6424 from December 13th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
The day of judgment will take you all by surprise, for you all don’t believe it to be as close as it is destined to be since eternity …. Again and again I inform you of it, even if you reject such indications as unbelievable, yet your unbelief will not stop the event which signifies the end of this earth and all living creations on it. But if you knew how close you are to it you would truly no longer think of your earthly successes, you would be completely unfit for any earthly activity, and therefore this knowledge would be of no use to you, for whatever you would then still do for your soul would only be born of fear, thus it would not be a free decision of will for Me and My kingdom …. The end will come as a surprise and yet such clear signs will precede it that everyone who pays attention will suspect what is in store for all of you …. And the believer can draw strength and courage from this because he now knows what hour has come and, due to his spiritual attitude, due to his faith in Me, does not fear the end either, which can now earn him a better fate on the new earth or in the spiritual kingdom …. But the unbelievers are in a bad way who, even in the obvious omens of the end, see nothing but coincidences or natural events …. which no warnings or admonitions can cause them to think differently and who therefore are and remain only earthly-minded …. And suddenly the end will be there for them, the day when no human being will be able to escape his fate, when everyone will see death before his eyes if he does not belong to those who expect Me and My coming. Even before then all people will receive a final admonition and warning …. Even before that I let all people experience the horrors of an imminent destruction which, however, does not affect all people but is such a clear omen of the end that every person could change his thinking if he wanted to entrust himself to the creator of heaven and earth in hours of greatest adversity and could now recognize His visible help and guidance. But the vast majority of humanity is unusually low in spiritual maturity …. distance from Me is exceedingly great and therefore they do not recognize My voice which calls and warns, even though it sounds mightily …. And due to the freedom of will I cannot give people even clearer signs of My being and My might, otherwise it would certainly be easy for Me to lead people to faith in Me …. which, however, would not signify spiritual maturity and would therefore be pointless …. Nevertheless, I still try everything to influence the individual person, and My efforts are not entirely unsuccessful either …. But the day of the end will then bring a separation of those who stand on My side or still cross over into My camp at the last hour, and those who found no way to Me and therefore followed the one who draws them into the abyss …. And the deep will receive these souls but in a form where their return to Me is not completely cut off …. You humans are all still too lukewarm because you still believe the day of the end to be further away than it is …. You, too, will be surprised, you who believe in Me …. you, too, should take My admonitions and instructions even more seriously; you should not let a day go by unused, you should do vineyard work every day and think of those who are in spiritual need …. you should all be zealously active for Me and My Kingdom …. For you are My pillars in the last days before the end, because you can let your voice be heard without endangering the free will of your fellow human beings …. Therefore create and work on earth as if tomorrow were already the last day …. And your work will be blessed …. you will be able to receive and distribute strength wherever it is needed ….
Amen

Warning against rash action and speech ….
B.D. 6425 from December 14th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
My grace sends you admonitions and warnings because you possess My love and because you should be made aware of dangers which directly threaten you if you are not careful …. There are certainly always guards around you ready to defend you, nevertheless, you must also know yourselves that you would be at the mercy of the elements of blind vengefulness without this protection which is provided on My behalf …. And therefore you should only ever remain in contact with Me, for then I will also be with you because your thoughts will attract Me, and then all forces which want to harm you will be powerless. Hell rages and its forces also win people over for their plans, therefore you must not offer them a handhold, which can easily happen through thoughtless words which a righteous anger lets you speak …. always be gentle as doves but wise as serpents! …. Whoever fights for My kingdom, whoever fights for the truth, will also be attacked by the opponents of truth, and these are in the service of My adversary who impels them to make false accusations, so that you will have to defend yourselves against lies and falsehood. But then remember My admonition, remember that you are surrounded by My fighters and then turn to them to protect you, and also turn your thoughts to Me so that My light of love will fall between you and your enemies and push them back …. Everywhere My adversary will try to harm you because he realizes that he is losing strength through you …. because he seeks to stop your work for Me and My kingdom and because he will stop at no means to achieve the aim …. to extinguish My light …. And people are in bondage to him, they hate the truth just as much because they themselves feel more comfortable in darkness …. They therefore willingly help him when it is necessary to take action against you …. And therefore human action will be taken against you, and then you must be on your guard and not do anything rash …. Then you only have to entrust yourselves to My protection with complete faith, you only have to strengthen your bond with the world of light, for then they will take up the battle against the forces of the underworld on My behalf, but they can only do so if you don’t detach yourselves from them and take up arms against your enemies on your own authority, for you yourselves are not strong enough and you would be defeated without the support of My fighters, without My help …. But you need not fear anything as long as you unite with Me in spirit …. in prayer …. And I only warn you so that you are attentive and immediately recognize the danger when it is approaching …. For the adversary has devised a ruse, but you will recognize it if you remember My warning …. For I always have to take your free will into account, therefore I cannot intervene and place My fighters at your side until you appeal to Me for help or hand yourselves over to all good forces so that they may protect you …. Yet My adversary will have to give way to them, and they will repel every attack aimed at you because you are active for Me and My kingdom ….
Amen

Work of the spirit …. vineyard work ….
B.D. 6426 from December 15th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
This is the strength of the spirit which impels you into uninterrupted activity in a spiritual sense; what stimulates you humans to do spiritual work, to cultivate spiritual thoughts or to acquire spiritual knowledge is always the working of My spirit in you, which is only ever concerned to bring your soul closer to the true home, to push you towards Me, from Whom you once took your origin …. And My spirit in you truly has great strength as soon as you allow it to work through your will, through a way of life in love …. Whether the world then also makes its demands on you again, whether it tries to force itself into your thoughts …. you will not pay more attention to it than is necessary, yet you will always return with your thoughts to where your soul finds what it is looking for, because My spirit constantly urges, because I Myself constantly draw you who have surrendered to Me …. This is why it is never to be feared that the world will gain power over you once My spirit has been able to work in you …. Then the soul will have become acquainted with something more valuable to it and the world will begin to fade away completely, it can no longer exert any attraction on the soul, even though it is still in the midst of the world …. But then the human being is also suitable for work in My vineyard because he recognized what his task on earth is and also wants to lead his fellow human beings to recognize it. And then he will also be a faithful servant, for then My spirit will also take over the guidance in him and he will only willingly carry out what the spirit prompts him to do. And his work will be successful …. He will now be earthly and spiritually active as long as he still wears the earthly garment, yet he is also able to do so because he will always find support in the kingdom of light which will help him where he himself as a human being believes himself to be too weak …. He can do the work because I don’t deprive him of strength but increase it, yet always unobtrusively, because this is more beneficial for himself and his environment. However, the work for Me and My kingdom must come first …. “Seek first My kingdom and its righteousness, all else will fall to you ….” My will shall first be fulfilled before other demands are listened to …. For these I can favour for you accordingly, as soon as you let the work for Me and My kingdom be your first concern …. You will never come to harm but reap the greatest blessings spiritually and earthly …. And you will always be able to cope with them, for the strength of My spirit fills you and also enables you to carry out all your intentions. From an earthly point of view, however, you carry out useless activity and you have to accept this opinion of your fellow human beings, for they don’t know the value of spiritual work, they only value what brings them earthly benefit …. They cannot and will not believe that one day they will be in great need when the time of appearance is over and the world of real existence will reveal their poverty of spiritual goods …. You humans can only acquire spiritual goods by surrendering earthly goods, by giving up the world. Only then can you collect treasures which are imperishable, which follow you into eternity, which make up your wealth in the spiritual kingdom, in your true home, where you can work with them again and constantly increase your wealth …. Let the spirit become active in you …. Be of the will to acquire the kingdom which is not of this world …. And get in touch with the lord of this world …. And My spirit will fill every heart which opens itself to Me by living in love …. because then I Myself can work in it through My spirit ….
Amen

Living faith in Jesus Christ ….
B.D. 6427 from December 16th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
You will never be able to detach yourselves from your adversary if you don’t call upon Jesus Christ to help you in the battle against him. Hence you have to acknowledge Him and His act of salvation by calling upon Him, and thus you also have to believe that I embodied Myself in the man Jesus …. you must believe in My incarnation in Jesus …. And this faith must be a living faith which was only awakened to life again through love. Hence you can only be redeemed through love, for without love you will not believe, even if you want to testify to faith in Jesus Christ with words. Anyone who walks away without love has no will to fight against the adversary, since he is of the same mind as him. Yet a person can have a weak will …. and this weak will prevents him from practicing love and detaching himself from the adversary …. But he should nevertheless know about the redeemer Jesus Christ and call upon Him to strengthen his will. He should only know for the time being that he will always find help with Jesus Christ …. If he calls upon Him, then his will will soon be strengthened and he will increasingly change to a life of love, and then his faith in the divinity of the man Jesus, in His act of salvation and in his own possibility of redemption will come alive, and then he will represent Me and My name with the conviction which only a living faith can give …. This is why the knowledge of Jesus Christ is necessary …. even if it is initially only a knowledge about the earthly event, about the life of a human being Who gave His life out of inner conviction …. The thought of this person can already be the first step towards a connection with Him, which once opens the gate to beatitude for him …. For as soon as he mentally occupies himself with His earthly life and is of good will, these thoughts will no longer let him go …. For it is Jesus Christ Himself Who now seeks to bind him to Himself. I know the human being’s every thought, and I Myself can draw close to him ‘in Jesus’ if he has not yet found a close bond with Me as his God and father of eternity. But the establishment of this bond is possible through the ‘man Jesus’ …. which is why He should also be mentioned purely historically …. only then can I still mentally influence him to try to find the reason for the way of life and the actions of the man Jesus …. And then he can also come to the conclusion that his life and death was based on a ‘spiritual cause’. And only then is it possible to win him over, for now he is no longer inaccessible to the teachings if they are truthfully conveyed to him. But anyone who wants to completely deny that the man Jesus walked on earth can hardly still gain knowledge on earth, because it will never be possible for him to give his will the right direction, which is still completely under the adversary’s control. And the latter will also never want to acquire the knowledge …. otherwise he would also receive knowledge in any way about Jesus’ earthly progress. For I truly have enough possibilities if only the human being seeks to learn about it. But it is always a blessing when My word is proclaimed as Jesus’ teaching of love when He Himself is proclaimed throughout the world …. so that every person has the opportunity to think about the truth, about the historical fact and about His mission, if he acknowledges such. Every person who wants to can also come to faith, and every person’s intellectual faith can also become a living faith. But only living faith will earn you humans redemption from sin and death …. Living faith in Me in Jesus Christ and in My act of salvation opens the gates into the kingdom of light and bliss for you; and you should all try to attain this living faith so that you can enter My kingdom of eternal life ….
Amen

Question to God and answer ….
B.D. 6428 from December 17th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
I truly want to kindle a light in you which gives you clarity in all questions which move you, yet you also have to want it to become light in you. My will is unlimited but I can only ever give you the measure you desire, but where I see your questions, where you ask them in connection with your thoughts towards Me, there I am always willing to give an answer as far as it is helpful to you. For there is also knowledge which is of no use to you as long as you have not attained that maturity of soul that everything could be presented to you. But as soon as it concerns purely spiritual knowledge you will not address any question to Me in vain, and I will always answer you such that it will be understandable to you …. Yet you will receive the answer inconspicuously, so that you will always think that you have mentally generated it yourselves and therefore you will not always be convinced whether it corresponds to the truth …. And I can only ever say to you: First ask Me for enlightenment, present your questions and doubts to Me and ask Me for clarification …. then your thoughts will always be directed correctly, then they will be guided truthfully, and you need not fear to be mistaken if you now represent the seemingly mentally gained opinion to your fellow human beings …. Although you yourselves cannot prove to your fellow human beings that your opinion corresponds to the truth, you can have your own conviction for the time being, because I truly will not let a person walk in error who seriously desires the truth from Me. If only you humans would make this knowledge your own, that you may trustingly come to Me and approach Me for the truth …. that only your prayer has to be directed to Me in spirit and in truth …. but that you will then also be safely guided into truth, as I have promised you …. So many different opinions could not be formed if all people wanted to ask for the working of My spirit and fulfilled the necessary conditions for it: to earnestly desire the truth from Him Who is the eternal truth Himself …. To acknowledge Him through conscious prayer for the supply of truth and to listen inwardly to it …. i.e., to deal mentally with the questions that move him …. Anyone who fulfils these conditions will also radiate love or he would neither desire the truth nor make contact with Me as the giver of truth …. For this person also believes in Me, and a convinced faith is the result of a way of life in love …. And therefore the truth can never only be conveyed to the human being from outside, although I instruct My servants on earth to proclaim the gospel to their fellow human beings …. the word which originates from Me and is pure truth …. For this gospel, too, must first occupy the person’s thoughts, and depending on his attitude towards Me he will accept or reject it …. because the recognition of truth also presupposes the working of My spirit, because this also requires the human being’s will to stand in truth …. But the hearing of My word can contribute towards the human being seeking contact with Me as the source of truth …. The word can already be enough to awaken the human being’s desire for truth, thus it can also move the human being’s thoughts …. And then the first step is already taken which leads to it becoming light in the human being …. Then a spark will have fallen into the heart which can ignite if its will is good …. For My will is to spread light on earth so that darkness may be dispelled ….
Amen

Rejecting God's word …. repentance ….
B.D. 6429 from December 19th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
One day it will weigh heavily on you not to have accepted the unusual gift of grace which was offered to you by Me, your God and father from eternity …. I approached many people and offered them a gift which they could certainly have recognized as something unusual and beneficial to them if a sense of responsibility had prompted them to examine it. But they lacked this sense of responsibility …. One day, however, they will bitterly regret it when they find out what they were offered …. I Myself spoke to them and could not do so more clearly due to their freedom of will, but they could have recognized My voice with a good will …. if only they had sent up a thought to the ‘God’ Whom they, as intellectuals, could not deny …. And this God would truly have sharpened their feeling for His own word …. But men no longer have a connection with Me that could move them to seek counsel from Me in every question troubling them …. They listen, smile and turn away …. And this will take bitter revenge, for in addition to the lack of knowledge now comes the awareness of their own guilt, the remorse over unused opportunities for the maturing of the souls …. It can take endless times before they reach this realization in the kingdom of the beyond that they were once offered light in abundance which they spurned. But the souls of those who have departed from earth can also be lured by people’s loving thoughts into the realm of light of those who already wanted to bestow My light of love upon them on earth …. And then repentance of their behaviour can cause the light to shine upon them again and protect them from sinking into the abyss …. And yet they recognize that they have missed something which cannot be made up for again …. For although their state of darkness slowly changes and they see ever brighter light shining, they will never be able to attain the degree of light they were able to acquire on earth under the influence of My word, which I Myself wanted to convey to them and which they resisted of their own free will. There are exceedingly many people who were able to receive My gift of grace and completely ignored it, there are also many people who allowed themselves to be touched by it and felt its benefit and yet did not allow themselves to be seriously influenced because they did not feel the full effect due to the world, which was able to register a stronger effect …. And there are many people who temporarily basked in My ray of love but whose hearts did not catch fire, who practiced too little love and therefore remained cold despite My illumination …. who therefore listened to My word without taking action afterwards and therefore the effect of My word on their souls failed to materialize. They all could have lifted a rich treasure, they all had wealth at their disposal with which they could work for their soul’s salvation …. They did not pay attention to it, and yet one day they will know what they missed out on. It means unspeakable happiness for the souls in the beyond when they hear My address …. In the state of light it constitutes their bliss when they can receive light and strength directly from Me …. Yet My word cannot be directly heard by a soul of low degree of maturity …. and therefore it is blissful when it is imparted to it …. when what was abundantly offered to it in earthly life is imparted to it …. But this already involves a special grace on My part that I call very many people away prematurely who paid no attention to My gift of grace on earth. For I truly use every opportunity to supply My living creations with light who are still in profound darkness, and if I don’t succeed in doing so on earth, the lack of light in the beyond will do much to awaken their desire for light, and then they will more gratefully accept what they could have received in abundance on earth …. But blessed are those who remember their rejection in the beyond and repent …. Then I will provide for them according to their desire, and a tiny ray of light alone will be enough to make them recognize their offence, and they will ask and receive and now be able to escape the darkness …. For My love wants to save but not eternally condemn ….
Amen

The love work of the man Jesus ….
B.D. 6430 from December 20th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
Unique is the work of love which the man Jesus accomplished for you …. A soul of light descended to earth and consciously walked the path as a human being in order to fight against the one who had already brought down your brothers and whom you wanted to defeat …. And the path was hard and bitter, it was the path of suffering of a human being who wanted to atone for a great guilt for His fellow human beings. What the soul brought with it from on high to this earth was an abundance of love for God and for people …. He had abundantly what the fallen souls lacked, yet through their own fault …. For they had rejected God’s radiance of love, but the soul of the man Jesus constantly desired the father’s love, and therefore this love also continued to radiate to it …. And therefore His love seized the unhappy brothers and wanted to help them up from the abyss. The soul of Jesus, the man, was also in constant contact with the eternal love through its love, it allowed itself to be filled by it …. Eternal love itself took abode in the soul of the man Jesus, and thus God became man …. And the man Jesus now accomplished the work of redemption for fallen mankind because His completely fulfilling love moved Him to do so and because it gave Him the strength to accomplish that which brought redemption to humanity: to suffer and die in extreme agony …. Humanity was in great distress, for God’s adversary held them captive and they themselves could not free themselves from him …. Therefore the eternal love descended to earth in the soul of the man Jesus and loosed the bondage by offering a ransom sacrifice to the one who held it captive …. Himself …. His life as a human being …. Love moved the man Jesus to take upon Himself an exceedingly agonizing sacrificial death in order to free the souls of people from that power. It was truly a work of love without equal, for it was a battle of light against darkness, love …. the eternal deity …. confronted Itself to Its adversary, and It defeated him …. And this great work of mercy was accomplished by a human being because He was supposed to prove to God’s adversary that love is stronger than hatred …. It was not God’s power that led the battle but His love, and therefore the sacrifice was made by a weak human being to whom the love dwelling in Him gave the strength to take on everything difficult …. And thus love was the driving force which also had to win the victory because nothing can resist it, because God Himself had taken on Jesus’ human shell, Who was full of love, and God Himself truly had to be victorious over His enemy. Yet He wanted humanity to take note of the battle against the enemy …. He wanted the act of salvation to remain an unforgettable event for humanity …. He wanted the name of Him who accomplished it to never fade away again …. And therefore the act of salvation also took place in a form which is and will remain unforgettable, for Jesus’ death on the cross cannot be denied, and as long as the world exists the divine redeemer will be mentioned by those who believe …. because it was not only an external process of the ‘crucifixion of a human being’, but the ‘outpouring of the spirit’ made possible by this work of redemption also proves the redemption from God’s adversary …. and the spirit of God will now also work again in a redemptive sense. For the adversary of God plunged the souls into darkness, but the spirit of God leads them to the light again …. The spirit of God is the sign, the proof of redemption from darkness, but it can only fulfil the human being through the death of the man Jesus on the cross, because before that the guilt of sin made it impossible for it to work …. The spirit of God will always proclaim the work of love and mercy of the man Jesus, in Whom God embodied Himself in order to redeem people ….
Amen

Humility and arrogance …. able servants ….
B.D. 6431 from December 21st 1955, taken from Book No. 69
To all My servants and handmaidens I address the same admonition not to slacken in their work for Me and My kingdom …. For if every servant brings back just one soul to Me he has accomplished a work of redemption for which I will truly reward him richly, for what this one soul is able to accomplish again is beyond your knowledge because you cannot measure the work every soul does when it stands in the light …. In recent times I awaken people again and again who, through their way of life and their spiritual abilities, make themselves suitable for work in My vineyard …. but they must then also fulfil their task in utmost humility and submission under My will, they must not feel privileged and now do vineyard work in awareness of their own value, because then they already make themselves unfit, because My flow of grace will then be restrained, which first requires humility in order to be able to flow unhindered …. And people are all still exposed to My adversary’s temptations, who precisely stirs up the arrogance which is his true nature. And thus this danger is particularly great where the heart does not humbly surrender to Me so that I fill it with My grace. Many people are certainly willing to work in the vineyard but they are not suitable for it as long as they still have the desire to stand out and be regarded as ‘gifted’. Yet only the deeply humble person is a suitable servant for Me, a maid …. who is willing to serve. For this reason I have few co-workers on earth who want nothing more than to work helpfully on earth, who recognize the great spiritual hardship and want to save their fellow human beings from it …. who don’t think of themselves but only ever think of others who lack light and who therefore want to let their light shine for others …. the light which My infinite love was able to kindle in them because they have this will to help within themselves. And such people are only rare, but I bless the few and help them so that they can fulfil their earthly task. For they are My pillars in the last days before the end, they are the servants I always use where it is necessary …. They are the mediators who work in My stead but through whom I Myself can cultivate the fields, through whom I Myself address human hearts and take care of their maturing. And everyone will be assigned his area where he shall be active …. everyone will be able to work in his small circle and always be certain of My support, for I am pleased with every willing person who supports My kingdom, who supports My name, who passes on to his fellow human beings what he has received from Me Myself …. but who only serves Me and not other lords. For My adversary will often try to intrude and want to win the servants for himself …. And he prefers to do this by whispering what makes people arrogant …. and that he thereby endangers the vineyard work. And therefore beware of that lord, lest he cause confusion in you; remain devoted to Me in profound humility and do not desire recognition, do not desire the approval of the world, and only enjoy the successes which you can exert on human souls …. Only take pleasure in the fact that you succeed in touching the souls and withdraw ever more from the world the more eagerly you want to be active in My vineyard. If you have helped a soul to emerge from darkness into light then you will certainly receive My reward, but this should also be enough for you …. yet on the worldly side you should not demand any recognition and only ever remember that you are unable to do anything without My grace, but that you only receive it as long as your heart approaches Me in deepest humility, asking for My love and grace …. But then you will also be suitable servants for Me and do Me welcome redeeming work …. And I will bless you eternally ….
Amen

Redemption period with Jesus Christ ….
B.D. 6432 from December 23rd 1955, taken from Book No. 69
The hour of redemption draws near …. No long time will pass before the end is drawn under a period which could bring redemption and also brings redemption to those who have joined the flock of Christ’s fighters, who have followed His call and walked the same path as He walked on earth …. For the people of this earthly period a special light of grace had poured forth, for in this last earthly period God Himself embodied Himself in the man Jesus in order to redeem humanity …. to make it possible for the whole of humanity to be able to behold the eternal light again, from which the spiritual world had once voluntarily turned away and therefore its fate was and would have remained a profound darkness without the divine redeemer Jesus Christ. This earth period was so significant because it ended a hopeless state which had already lasted for an infinitely long time …. And the redemption of all spiritual beings which entered the stage of embodiment as human beings during this earth period would have been completely possible …. And yet this unheard-of bestowal of grace was not utilized, and again only a few reached their aim on earth …. to be able to end this life in the flesh with their souls fully matured in order to find acceptance in the kingdom of light. This would have been possible for all people, but because free will is decisive and this was not properly utilized, countless souls left this earth unredeemed …. although they all received knowledge of Jesus’ act of salvation, of His crucifixion and His mission …. Yet they lacked faith, and even the knowledge of this greatest work of mercy ever accomplished on earth had no effect on people …. And so a redemption period which could have brought the greatest success now comes to an end …. and a new one begins again, so that all beings will be offered the opportunity again to make use of the blessings acquired through Jesus’ death once more, for complete redemption can only take place with the help of the divine redeemer Jesus Christ …. And you humans are now facing this turning point, you are facing the end of the old and the beginning of the new era of redemption, which therefore also signifies the end of this earth and the emergence of a new earth. There is still time for every single human being to turn to Jesus Christ with the request to help Him …. The knowledge of His work of redemption could still be used, even if faith in it is lacking …. But anyone who can only believe in the existence of this human being can occupy himself with this ‘human being’ in thought and have a mental dialogue with Him, so that this ‘human being’ will explain to him why He wanted to seal His ideas with a cross …. And he will get the answer because the divine redeemer grasps everyone who only enters into contact with Him. Intellectual knowledge alone is not of much use to him but it can help to initiate a purely intellectual mental argument which can end more or less successfully. This earth period was blessed with God’s personal earth walk …. And much could have been achieved by people with good will, yet their will was not often directed upwards …. Only a small flock ever followed Him, and at the end of this period it will not be much bigger either. Therefore you can all expect the near end with certainty, you can indeed still enter the divine redeemer’s following beforehand, you can join His small flock, for He will accept you until the last hour …. But the end of this earth has irrevocably come, and therefore you are required to make great haste and use all your strength, you are urgently advised to appeal for strength so that you will all reach the aim before the last day has come …. that you will profess Jesus Christ before it is too late ….
Amen

Jesus' birth …. Sacrificial death ….
B.D. 6433 from December 24th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
No being will ever be able to comprehend the infinite love which motivated Me to descend to earth and to take abode in an infant Which became and remained My shell until His death. The eternal Deity embodied Itself in a living creation which It had formed Itself, Which voluntarily shaped Itself such during Its earthly life that it remained worthy of receiving Me …. I wanted to descend to earth so as to bring salvation to you humans in your extreme spiritual hardship and for this I needed a form which would receive Me …. since for the sake of your freedom of will I had to live amongst you as a human being …. And this form had to fulfil all preconditions to be able to shelter the highest Spirit of eternity without fading away due to My strength of love …. Thus this person first had to spiritualise Himself through love, so that I, as Love Itself, found in Him the right vessel into Which I was able to pour Myself, Which thus was able to shelter Me within Itself without ceasing to exist …. The infant Jesus was born without sin, It was fathered by My spirit, My will and My strength brought It into life, and My spirit was able to take possession of the infant and to express itself, if only from time to time, in order to give Its environment a sign of Its divine mission. And this spirit unfolded itself in the man Jesus, because His love nourished it time and again anew …. because Jesus’ love more or less forced Me to give Myself to Him in all fullness, so that the man Jesus was permeated by light and strength, by wisdom and power …. I Myself worked through the man Jesus and everything He then thought, spoke or did was My spirit’s strength, it was the strength of My love which accomplished everything in Him, to which nothing was impossible …. No limitation existed for Him after the unity with Me had occurred due the boundless love of the man Jesus, for I Myself was in Him now and My will was His, My strength permeated Him, and therefore nothing existed which would have been impossible for the man Jesus to accomplish …. And yet He remained human until His mission was accomplished, until He died the sacrificial death on the cross in order to redeem humanity ….
A period started when I descended to earth which is now ending …. It was the beginning of a time during which the complete redemption could be achieved precisely because of Jesus Christ’s act of Salvation …. For now I Myself had come to earth and I emphatically spoke to people in order to win them over for Me …. And those who listened to Me and complied with My Word were able to conclude their earthly life after their physical death, they were able to enter the spiritual kingdom in a spiritualised state, because their old guilt had been taken from them through the crucifixion of Christ, which prior to this was impossible …. For the form I had chosen for Myself to dwell in merely covered the Divine, Which actually spoke through the man Jesus. And I Myself was the Divine within the form, and it was truly possible for Me to release people from a fetter which had already kept them captive for an infinitely long time …. I descended to earth, I chose a human form for Myself in which I accomplished the act of Salvation in order to wage open war against the one who had kept you bound and who needed a strong opponent in order to be defeated. Due to My greater than great love for you, the fallen spirits, I adopted a human form, and thus it was a tremendously emotional moment for all beings in the spiritual kingdom when I descended to earth at the birth of the child Jesus, and the whole of Creation stood still at the moment of birth, because it was an act of most exalted love and mercy to embody Myself in a child …. For My spirit, which rules the whole of infinity, took abode in this child, and thus It started Its earthly life …. in the midst of spiritually dark people …. And yet the light remained in His heart, because the man Jesus would not let go of God, because His love was so profound that He tied Me ever more to Himself and finally totally united Himself with Me …. so that only His external cover was human, yet soul and spirit had joined Me completely and therefore I Myself lived on earth and redeemed you humans through My death on the cross ….
Amen

Light from above …. The Word of God ….
B.D. 6434 from December 25th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
The world is under tremendous pressure …. People on earth are being controlled by forces of darkness and it is urgently necessary for light to shine into the darkness, so that people will receive strength in order to resist the besieging forces …. Without light they will go down, without light they will find no way, no opportunity, to escape …. And therefore God will time and again emanate His light to earth, He Himself comes to earth as in the past, although not embodied in a human being but in His Word …. He also looks for a human form into which He can pour His light so that it can illuminate the dark night far and wide …. He embodies Himself in the spirit of those who are willing to be of service to Him …. This is likewise a descent, because the same darkness is spread across earth which arouses pity in God and therefore He lets the light shine to earth again, as He did in the past …. Yet in those days people stood at the beginning of a path which could have led to ascent, but now they are approaching the end of the path without having made much progress, and it will soon come to an end …. But has it led out of the darkness? Will people follow the ray of light which is still shining for them now? Will they find the right way in the light and still take it before it is too late? The dark forces exert their rule to such an extent that God will intervene in order to put an end to it …. Nevertheless, people are not left at the mercy of these forces without protection and help, for God Himself has kindled a light which shines so brightly that everyone can recognise the danger he lives in …. For this divine light reveals all, it also exposes the one who has ill-intentions towards people and who tries to tempt them in disguise …. The divine light of love shines so brightly that everyone can see what is happening in the world if only he opens his eyes, if he does not obscure the light himself on account of his will, which is still completely in favour of God’s adversary.
The divine light of love has been kindled by God Himself again and it shines down to earth, because great hardship prevails in the dark vicinity of earth and only love can resolve this hardship again, as it did in the past when the Light of eternity Itself descended to earth …. God Himself spoke through the mouth of the man Jesus Who, as a soul of light, was permeated by love and therefore became the appropriate physical form to shelter God Himself in order to speak through the man Jesus to all people …. And so God speaks to people today again, He Himself speaks to them through a human mouth, He lets the light of truth shine into those people’s hearts who are willing to listen to it …. He conveys His Word to earth and people would no longer need to live in darkness if they allowed themselves to be illuminated by His divine light of love …. The path which leads to ascent lies brightly and clearly ahead of them, no more dark areas exist for someone who avails himself of the divine light of love …. He need only call upon Jesus Christ and the darkness will recede from him, he will no longer be at the mercy of the dark forces, for it is always and ever the same light which shines for people on earth …. the light of the cross …. the realisation of Jesus Christ’s act of love and mercy …. the correct understanding of God’s human manifestation in Jesus …. and the faith in the power and strength which rests in calling upon His holy name. Jesus Christ, the divine Redeemer, is the light Which came into the world …. And even though He Himself came to earth …. even though the Word from above announced Him …. the light shines forth from Him alone, and without Him there is darkness on earth as well as in the spiritual kingdom …. For He Himself is the light of eternity Which will always shine into infinity and Which shines again to earth, so that all people shall find the path to Him, so that they shall return into their Father’s house ….
Amen

The work of redemption was accomplished by love ….
B.D. 6435 from December 26th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
You once came forth from My love, and your nature was likewise love and thus also divine …. until your apostasy from Me which deprived you of all divinity …. As a result of your apostasy you became beings which could still call themselves My creations but which were far removed from their original state, which were only variations of what I had once created. Nevertheless, they were products of My strength and also still permeated by My strength, otherwise they could no longer exist …. However, as supremely perfect Myself I cannot be satisfied with imperfect creations, even if this imperfection was caused by their own will. And the aim I have set Myself is and remains to guide these apostate creations back to perfection, to make them divine beings again, which they were in the beginning …. But the imperfect constantly needs support, for this is a characteristic of their imperfection, that they are too weak to make an attempt upwards and that they are completely without realization of what they have forfeited themselves through their apostasy to the abyss and how they can right their wrong …. The fallen creations are without light and without strength …. and if I want to lead them back to Me and to their former perfection I have to provide them with light and strength beforehand, yet even then they are still free to decide whether they want to accept light and strength from Me. My love let all beings arise, and they still possess My love even though they voluntarily renounced Me and sank into the abyss …. And My love constantly endeavours to change their lightless and powerless state …. But one is to blame for their fall, and this one prevents the beings from returning upwards, and he also has power over them because they once voluntarily followed him to the abyss …. therefore a being which had remained faithful to Me also offered to oppose this first-fallen brother and to wrest the fallen beings from him for Me …. It wanted to help those who aspire to ascend, It wanted to help Its fallen brothers to return to the father where supreme bliss is …. I Myself could not take the beings from My adversary with My might, since I respect every being’s free will …. Yet He, too, was My son Who wanted to help Me liberate the fallen, and I also allowed Him free will because love impelled Him to His plan to accomplish a work of salvation on the weakened beings which, embodied as a human being, did not have the strength to liberate themselves from their lord. Love could only make up for what unkindness had caused …. Only a being full of strength could give its strength to the weak, incapable being, and only a being full of love could be full of strength …. So such a being full of strength and love descended to earth to bring salvation in great need …. And I gave My blessing to it, for I longed for My children whom that being of light wanted to bring back to Me, to whom it wanted to show the way to Me …. I sent My son to earth …. Who carried Me within Himself through His greater than great love, which was meant for Me and also for His fallen brothers …. Love accomplished a work of redemption, love took care of those unhappy creatures, love imparted to them the strength and the light which had been lost to them …. the love which is My fundamental substance and which filled the being of the man Jesus, in Whom the soul of light had embodied Itself …. Love therefore took possession of Him, and everything the man Jesus thought, spoke and did was determined by love …. And thus ‘love’ accomplished the work of redemption on people, love led the children back to the father …. I Myself redeemed them from satan’s bondage and gave them light and strength, love brought My children back to Me ….

Right understanding requires working in love ….
B.D. 6436 from December 27th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
You should take every opportunity to point out to your fellow human beings their task in life on earth: to shape themselves into love …. You should always preach love and therefore be proclaimers of My teaching of love wherever this opportunity is offered to you. This is the task of those who offer themselves to Me for service, and I will bless them if they take this task seriously and awaken their fellow human beings’ sense of responsibility, if they encourage them to think about themselves. Wherever love is practiced there will also be an understanding of the times in which humanity lives …. Without love activity, however, people lack this understanding, and therefore they also don’t take any indications seriously which announce the near end …. Hence it is of no use to you to only mention the ‘near end’ if you don’t simultaneously admonish people to work with love, for the latter is even more important than the knowledge about the end …. Love is the surest antidote in the coming time when adversity and misery will befall all people; love is the lifeline when humanity is in danger of sinking …. Where love is practiced fear fades away, because people strengthen themselves inwardly through the working of love and because they are united with Me through love, Who will always be their protection in every adversity …. Therefore, if you want to be of service to Me you must always point your fellow human beings to My commandment of love; you must teach them that their earthly life is and will remain an idle existence if they don’t engage in unselfish neighbourly love, and that they can only gain strength through a life of love in the time of adversity they are facing …. Only a few will believe you, only a few will listen to you without resistance and consider your words, and you can also inform them of what is coming, for they will not close their minds, they will consider it possible and mentally prepare themselves for it …. Knowledge alone, however, will not help them, even though it should be offered to everyone …. because you yourselves cannot judge whether and to what extent your fellow human being is in love …. Therefore you should always admonish people to work with love, love should always be preached by those who want to be servants to Me on earth …. For unkindness is the greatest evil which causes people to walk in deepest spiritual darkness …. An unkind person will rarely be touched by your sermon of love, yet even his ear shall hear it if his heart is closed …. You should try to bring Me close to everyone as the ‘eternal love’, you should enlighten everyone that they can turn to the father in greatest adversity, Who is love Himself and wants to help everyone who calls upon Him …. You should not miss any opportunity to talk to your fellow human beings about divine-spiritual matters …. Again and again you should try to direct his thoughts to what he constantly passes by …. If your thoughts are constantly filled with My teaching of love then you cannot help but share yourselves with everyone who crosses your path, and then you will also be good representatives of My teaching of love and My name. And therefore you must always make an effort to live a life of love yourselves in order to thereby give the spirit within you the opportunity to express itself …. And this will impel you to speak wherever an opportunity presents itself. Your spirit will guide your thinking correctly and let you find the right words with which to address your fellow human beings and which will not fail to make an impression …. But you should not be lukewarm and do half the work, for your work is urgent in the last days before the end …. Love must always and constantly be preached so that people awaken and become introspective, so that they reflect on themselves when they follow you and your life. And therefore you should exemplify love to them, and your example will be more effective than words which you don’t prove yourselves through deeds …. Preach love and live out My teaching of love yourselves, and your work for Me and My kingdom will always be blessed ….
Amen

Trust in divine guidance ….
B.D. 6437 from December 28th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
I guide all of you who want to serve Me, and you will never go your ways alone but by My hand, because you took it voluntarily, because you chose Me as your guide of your own accord. And My guidance will always be such that it will serve you to attain maturity of soul but also the vineyard work you want to do, for I know where and how you can use your strength appropriately because I also know about your will to be faithful servants to Me. And believe Me, you will always know yourselves what you should do, because I speak to you all Myself through the heart …. Just trust Me fully that I will give you the right instructions when the time comes, but don’t anticipate …. For I will bring everything to you in such a way that you will take it for granted, so that you will then also have the certain feeling that you are acting correctly, for this is My voice in you …. Consider: You want to serve Me …. Is it then not also self-evident that your father of the house also gives you the right instructions for your service? I will never let the strength of a servant who offers himself to Me for service lie idle, because I need all of you and assign to everyone the work he can best do …. As long as you ask and are uncertain, the order has not yet been given to you by Me, for you will feel it clearly and without doubt in your heart and also fulfil it without hesitation …. Let Me take care of you, let Me think for you, and only ever grasp Me by the hand which guides you, so that you safely direct your steps to where I want to take you …. And if I have assigned an unusual task to you, even then everything will approach you in such a way that nothing unusual can be recognized …. For I don’t want to determine your will, but if you subordinate it to Mine then you will always want the same as Me, and your thoughts and actions will therefore also be right …. But as long as you still doubt or question, it is not My voice which inwardly gives you the order. Then intimately unite with Me and wait until you have complete clarity, which I will certainly give to you if only you are willing to serve Me. And you will be amazed how everything works itself out and how confidently you are now able to judge. The adversity of the time requires all your commitment, and I call you, My servants on earth, to industrious vineyard work, but I also assign everyone the field of activity he is capable of cultivating. I am the master of the house and My will shall apply to My servants …. because you humans yourselves cannot overlook where and how your strength can best be utilized. And therefore you should always submit yourselves to Me and My instructions …. But then you need never fear to do a wrong job. Open your heart and ear to Me yourselves through your will …. And I will speak to you in such a way that you will understand Me even if you cannot hear My word audibly …. You will feel what I want from you, and therefore you only need to pay attention to your feelings, to the inner voice which urges you or holds you back …. For as soon as you sincerely ask Me for clarification I will truly answer you and you will feel what you have to do or refrain from doing …. so you can at any time carelessly leave yourselves to the guidance of your father in heaven …. He knows the paths you should take for your own and your fellow human beings’ salvation ….
Amen

Occasion and purpose of the descent of Jesus ….
B.D. 6438 from December 29th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
The core of Christ’s teaching is the commandment of love, because people lack love and love is nevertheless the most important thing if your upward development is to progress …. if the soul wants to find entrance into the kingdom of light at the end of earthly life …. That is why God Himself came to earth in the man Jesus, in order to show them for the time being the way, which leads back to Him, which forms the being again in such a way, as it came out of God once …. The man Jesus taught love and lived it Himself to the people. Through His life of love, the man Jesus also proved to people the attainment of perfection, He proved to them that it is possible to come into a state through love which makes the union with God possible and thus brings in light and power in abundance. For He was as man the same as every other man. What led Him to the union with God, what brought Him the power to work miracles, what gave Him light-full recognition and deepest wisdom …. was only the love, which glowed in Him overpoweringly to God and to His fellow human beings …. And for the first time He wanted to make this love the most important thing for people, that they should do like Him, that they should follow Him in their way of life, in order to reach again the former perfection, which they had once lost in the spiritual world through their apostasy from God …. But mankind was heavily burdened by this former apostasy from God …. A sin debt weighed on it, from which the man Jesus was free …. a guilt of sin, which also pulled down the willing people again and again, which also gave another lord the right to prevent the ascent …. a lord who was opposed to Jesus, who was completely devoid of love and who therefore prevented the people, who had become his property through the fall of man, from acting in love wherever possible …. The love teaching of Christ could have been accepted but not lived out by men as long as they were still under the power of him who had once been responsible for their fall. And so his power had to be broken first, people had to be freed from him first, it had to be made possible for them to go the way up, someone had to help them …. because they were too weak on their own, even if they were of good will …. The burden had to be lifted from the people that kept them chained to their jailer …. And this burden, the guilt of sin of their former rebellion against God …. they could not bear or pay off themselves, because it was immense and would have eternally prevented them from ascending to God …. Therefore Jesus took this mission upon Himself, for the people …. for His fallen brothers …. to wipe out the guilt, to atone for it and to redeem people from the power of the adversary. For Jesus was likewise a being that came forth from God’s love, like His brother Lucifer …. and He recognized, as an angelic spirit remaining with God, the great misery of the fallen and the impossibility of getting rid of this misery by his own strength, if help was not brought to him …. And His exceeding great love offered itself for this help: To embody itself on earth in the man Jesus and to serve the eternal deity as a cover …. the eternal love, which wanted to redeem that guilt of sin through a work of atonement, which it brought to execution in the man Jesus …. Only after the work of redemption was it possible for people to become free and to rise out of darkness, through love work, through living out the teaching which Jesus preached on earth. Because before men would not have been able to do this, because they were still bound, because their will was so weakened by the burden of sin that they would have sunk back again and again through the influence of the adversary. The souls belonged to Him, and voluntarily He would never have given them up, but Jesus paid the debt through His suffering and death on the cross …. The divine love, which had embodied itself in the man Jesus, redeemed the guilt itself, and people became free …. as soon as they acknowledge Jesus as the divine redeemer and also claim His work of mercy for themselves …. as well as they believe that God in Jesus has taken care of people in order to make the way of return to Him possible for them …. as well as they now also live in the following of Jesus, as well as they lead a life in love and shape themselves again to what they were in the beginning …. beings filled with light and power, who united with God through love ….

Consider the end ….
B.D. 6439 from December 30th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
I send the same admonition to all human beings: Consider your end. For it is granted to all of you; right now you all have to count on a natural recall from this earth when your hour has come. But many of you will have to leave earthly life prematurely, because I don’t want to let them fall into My adversary’s hands since their resistance is not strong enough to resist his coercion in the last days ….
However, even the people who will experience the end will have to count on a shorter lifespan than they would naturally expect, for this end will happen to you soon …. And you humans are not yet mature enough to anticipate this end without reservations …. And thus, in view of the near end I admonish you all to make every effort to improve your soul. I caution you to live consciously and not to let a day go by without having done a kind deed, without having offered your soul a gift to help its ascent …. I urgently remind you all to accept My Word, to let yourselves be addressed by Me in My Word and thereby also receive the strength to help you ascend …. Don’t just live your earthly life but engross yourselves at least once a day in My Word, briefly communicate with Me and commend yourselves to Me and My grace ….
Just a heartfelt thought to Me is already refreshment for your soul, and if you read or hear My Word in silent devotion you will provide your soul with the nourishment that will help it mature for sure. I only admonish you humans to live consciously …. to remember that your life will not last much longer and that you will prepare a bearable fate for your soul after the death of its body ….
Don’t let the time you have left until the end slip away …. don’t let it pass by without using it for your soul, and you only provide for your soul when you entertain spiritual thoughts, when you make mental contact with your God and Creator of eternity, Who is Father of you all, Who would like to admit you into His kingdom but requires your own will to do so: to create a state of soul which allows its entry into My kingdom …. Therefore I admonish you time and again: Consider the end ….
As long as you stand in the midst of life you will always resist this idea because you don’t know that you can be granted an extremely blissful fate afterwards …. But My love would like to grant you a blissful fate, consequently you will constantly hear these Words of exhortation from above, because you yourselves have to want to become blissfully happy …. Every pensive hour, every moment of inner reflection will be of utmost benefit for you …. Yet woe to those who will never find time for this, who are so attached to the world that they are incapable of detaching themselves for a short time …. For they are firmly under My adversary’s control from which they will hardly be able to escape if they are not helped through loving intercession, through calling upon Jesus Christ to be helped by Him directly …. You can call upon Me at any time and I will hear you, for I want to release you from his chains and not prolong your captivity ….
Consider the end …. and consider the state of your souls. Call upon Me for help …. This is what My never-ending admonitions intend to achieve, that you will remain in contact with the only One Who can help you …. that you will direct your eyes and appeals heavenwards and become and remain conscious of the fact that you will not live forever on this earth ….
Amen

Love – divine principle ….
B.D. 6440 from December 31th 1955, taken from Book No. 69
The divine principle is love …. and everything that moves within love can be called divine. But where unkindness prevails, there is God’s counter-principle, there works the one whose nature has completely de-divinized itself through its apostasy from God, who turned everything upside down and became God’s antipole. But what it means to be in his sphere can only be explained to you humans in such a way that you are deformed, that you possess no or only inadequate knowledge and wander about without strength which a divine being has in abundance. Yet you can remedy this lightless and powerless state, you can change yourselves into divinely empowered beings again, you can acquire an abundance of light and strength and use it according to divine will if you also let the principle of love prevail within you, if you consciously detach yourselves from the one who is devoid of all love …. This is easily possible for you if you only ever move in love, if you inwardly unite yourselves with eternal love …. Every person who establishes this bond, at first in thought, will also feel a flow of love flowing into him, for he will feel prompted by a soft heart to be active in love. Only the bond with God is necessary because this signifies an opening of the heart for God’s flow of love, which is the beginning of the work of transformation the human being shall accomplish in earthly life …. Every good thought is turning towards God, every evil thought is abandoning oneself to His opposite pole …. Every good thought is a source of strength, every bad thought a weakening, and both have an effect on the human being’s soul, on its nature. In the human being both impulses will fight against each other, because the human being’s spiritual sphere is lightless and filled with all evil thoughts and desires, but in the soul the spark of light and love from God also glows, which can shine so brightly that it can dispel or transform all evil thinking …. Love can assert itself against all evil urges, but the human being himself must have the will to establish the connection with God, then God Himself will also work, and His working can only ever be determined by the principle of love …. thus make the transformation into a divine being possible for the human being by allowing His flow of love to flow into the heart of a willing human being …. On earth unkindness is predominant because earth is the realm of the one who is without love and therefore God’s adversary …. nevertheless God’s ray of love also penetrates his realm where it only finds an open heart, where a person ignites the spark of love within himself, where his thoughts rise up to God, Whom he recognizes as creator and father and to Whom he consciously unites himself through his will. Then the light of God’s love can take effect with all its strength and ignite a fire which can never be extinguished …. And the fire will radiate a light which exposes all shortcomings, which also allows the devastations in the realm of God’s adversary to come to light so openly that the human being will always make more of an effort to give his life a different direction and also to enlighten his fellow human beings about the defective state which, however, can be changed into a state of true life, into a state full of light and strength …. The light of love reveals everything, and a seeing person will no longer find it difficult to take the right path, and he will also want to lead his fellow human beings this way …. Where the principle of love prevails there is truly already the kingdom of God, even if the human being still lives on earth, and already on earth people can shape themselves into gods, because through a life of love they always unite more closely with God and become like His fundamental being, because then they will become again what they were in the beginning, God-like beings in love, light and strength ….
Amen

Feeding the truth ….
B.D. 6441 from January 1st 1956, taken from Book No. 69
It is the only truth which comes to you as proof of God’s love, it is His word which He Himself imparts to you from the height …. And you can fully believe this word and evaluate it as His direct, irrefutable address. What is then conveyed to you through God’s word you can represent as purest truth and bask in the light of truth yourselves, and you need not fear being led into wrong thinking through it …. And by recognizing the truth from God you will also be able to make a right judgment about the value or unvalue of spiritual knowledge which is brought to you from outside; you will be able to recognize whether it also originates from God or has flowed from another source …. You are able to distinguish truth from error, for a light shines upon you which chases away all darkness and also allows you to recognize all rubbish which could pollute the pure spring water if it is not removed. What God Himself gives you is pure and clear like purest spring water, and you should protect it from all contamination because otherwise it will lose its strength and effect. And you will need nothing else but the water of life flowing from that spring in order to let your soul recover and keep it healthy, in order to put it into a state that it can enter the kingdom of light after the death of the body. You therefore only need the pure truth from God …. in order to attain eternal life. This truth is given to every person who seriously desires it, because God’s adversary cannot enter it precisely because of the desire for truth, which is the same as the desire for God …. But where this is not present the adversary has free access, he can work there unhindered, and his activity will always be to spread darkness over the human being and to extinguish the light where he is able to do so …. And therefore he has easy access to people’s hearts because their desire for truth is seldom present, which results from the fact that they let themselves be caught up in a net of lies and error and make no effort to free themselves from it, that they thoughtlessly accept what is presented to them as truth and don’t ask themselves whether what is offered to them is entitled to be judged as truth …. With them the adversary of God has an easy game …. He can always make the veil that is before their eyes thicker …. He can always put more error and lies before them, which will again be accepted thoughtlessly …. It is no water of life, it is a death potion which these people accept, which poisons their souls and lets them enter the kingdom of the beyond completely darkened …. They lack all light and powerlessly fall prey to eternal death, because only truthful light can awaken them to life, because truthful light can only come from God and they have not approached Him for it. Error is far more widespread in the world than the pure truth from God …. because this is not requested but people always have an open ear for that …. For the adversary conveys such thoughts and teachings to people which are pleasing to the ear, which they like to hear and which constantly increase error and therefore the darkness grows ever greater. Yet people are considered according to their will, and therefore God can abundantly provide for you who desire the truth, and He will always give you light so that you can penetrate the darkness …. He will enlighten you when errors want to force their way into your thinking …. He will not allow your light to be dimmed but always let it shine brighter the deeper the darkness is around you which you want to escape …. And the brightest light is His word which He Himself sends to you from above, which He imparts to those who love Him and keep His commandments …. as He has promised ….
Amen

Reject direct word ….
B.D. 6442 from January 2nd 1956, taken from Book No. 69
You will rarely find followers in ecclesiastical circles, for they do not believe that people can establish such an intimate connection with Me that they are able to hear My voice …. Nor do they believe that I make Myself known, that I speak to people directly when they have entered into the child relationship, which is a prerequisite for this direct address. They certainly preach a God of love but their faith in My love is so small that they don’t even grant Me the proof of love to reveal Myself, so that people on earth also experience My love in themselves. They proclaim empty words without life when they preach Me as the God of love, and they prove their lifelessness precisely by rejecting My word which is offered to them from above through you. And because they reject this word they can never become properly enlightened either, they can never receive light, i.e. broaden their realizations, they walk along in spiritual darkness because they themselves don’t take the commandments of love so seriously either, which I gave them …. because they don’t live out love even when it is preached to them. My word could fill large gaps in their knowledge, it could awaken them to life, because there are also people in church circles who seriously strive for perfection and because the right path is also shown to them through the truth of My word. Yet as long as they do not recognize My voice as the father’s voice they have not yet established a close bond with Me, thus they have not yet entered into the right relationship with the child …. to completely surrender to Me and let themselves be guided by Me …. not by those who arrogate this right to themselves without having been called to it by Me. I Myself want to be the one to Whom they turn in every adversity of body and soul …. And if they sincerely do so, I will supply them with what they need for body and soul …. And since My pure word is the right nourishment for their soul I will also supply it to them as soon as this request is urgently addressed to Me. But as long as they do not accept My pure word, offered from above, this call for the right nourishment for their souls has not yet been made to Me …. but people are satisfied with what people offer them again …. They don’t ask for more and therefore don’t get any further in their earthly life, for one thing results from the other …. Every sincere request proves love for Me and finds fulfilment in My love …. and the best I can offer an earthly child during its earthly life is My word …. My word can certainly be heard everywhere by an earnestly desiring person, and he can also accept it in those circles …. But he will never turn away if My pure word is offered to him through you …. He will fill himself full of joy and desire with the food which he recognizes as strengthening for his soul. He will gratefully enjoy My evidence of love but not reject it, because the love in him will also enlighten his spirit and My word will shine for him as a light which he no longer wants to miss. As long as you find resistance when you want to spread My word you will only ever have to deal with formal christians who are still dead in spirit, who have no living faith, who first have to awaken to life and for this their will is necessary to establish a close connection with Me …. through loving activity or also …. if their will to love is still too weak …. through mental connection, through a prayer for help in spiritual adversity to their God and creator of eternity. Then I will reveal Myself as father and give their souls what they need, and then they will clearly recognize that the father addresses them for their salvation ….
Amen

Work of dark forces ….
B.D. 6443 from January 4th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
It is a frightening work of the evil forces in the last time before the end. The prince of darkness constantly urges them on to cause confusion, and given the darkness of spirit in which people live at this time they also succeed all too well, for they are heard and people believe, and whether it is the thickest errors and lies which are presented to them …. they accept it as truth and become ever darker in their spirit. Yet every person could most lightfully recognize it for what it is if only he would approach Me Myself for enlightenment if something appears doubtful to him …. But people’s spiritual arrogance is already so great that they don’t consider it necessary to ask this question …. but are convinced of the sincerity of those who administer the deepest error to them. People’s lack of knowledge is increasing more and more instead of being remedied …. but I have foretold you that many false prophets and false Christs will rise from the dead, that they will perform miracles for you which My adversary performs …. I have admonished you not to believe them …. However, you humans must not reject everyone as a false prophet but you must seriously examine them as to their authenticity, you must believe that true prophets will also arise who want to help you achieve your salvation …. You must not accept everyone but also not reject everyone who presents himself to you as a prophet, as being in My service, in the last time before the end …. But you have certain characteristics of a genuine prophet, that he walks along inconspicuously and proclaims My word to you, that he points you to the end, that he gives to you in complete unselfishness what he receives from Me directly …. as I Myself did when I lived on earth. My emissaries will not appear in dazzle and splendour, My emissaries will not walk amongst you humans differently as I Myself did, and never ever will I hide behind high and highest ranks, never ever will I reveal Myself through such people who stand at the highest pinnacle of worldly organizations, for these are not the right successors of Me, Who Myself, completely destitute and simple, felt drawn towards those who were poor and weak and in need …. I would certainly also be able to appear there if the ‘true succession’ of those would be proven to Me by the fact that they themselves rejected all external ostentation …. if their work would proceed in silence and a clear distance from traditional customs would be recognizable …. if they listened to the voice of their spirit and allowed themselves to be guided …. to be a loving father to the poor and weak, to the needy, to alleviate hardship and to truly walk the path of discipleship by standing up for the pure truth, which a spirit-filled person now also clearly recognizes in himself …. But My adversary prevents this and therefore deceives them, which causes them to sink even deeper into spiritual darkness …. My adversary has great power before the end but he would not be able to use it where he finds resistance: the closest bond with Me through unselfish activity of love. Yet such would express itself differently, for it does not show itself outwardly, it does not emerge, it does not support a power which is about to collapse, for a spirit enlightened by love also clearly recognizes people’s spiritual low and its cause …. And a person whose spirit is enlightened cannot profess untruth but campaigns against it …. Don’t let yourselves be beguiled and ask Me for clarification if you doubt, but don’t thoughtlessly accept what My adversary presents to you in order to darken your spirit even more. Where bright light shines there is truth, there I reveal Myself and there My prophets will arise who warn and admonish you and who again and again denounce My adversary’s activities …. But the truth, the light, is not to be found in the gears of the world …. and worldly is everything that sends out its dazzling light, which has no luminosity …. But where light shines, there I Myself appear, there is truth, there is My spirit, and this also brightly illuminates the doings of satan ….
Amen

Words of comfort from the father ….
B.D. 6444 from January 5th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
Whatever suffering and pain you experience in earthly life will help you to achieve perfection if you surrender to My will …. Yet bear in mind that I know everything and that what I allow can always result in good success for your soul. I certainly don’t approve of the actions of those who cause you pain or hardship, yet all people have free will and will one day have to answer for this will …. Yet you need not suffer any harm to your soul as a result, you can emerge from all hardship and suffering unscathed but then you will also have a plus, yet always provided that you remain in contact with Me through love, that you don’t let yourselves be tempted into thoughts of hatred and revenge but humbly let everything pass you by in the certainty that I know about it and will help you as soon as you turn to Me in prayer …. You have a father in heaven Who loves His children …. Trust in your father with complete faith and you will not be disappointed, for He always knows a way out, no matter how confusing it may seem …. for truly all things are possible to Me …. My adversary’s activity also appears strongly, you must always remind yourselves of this …. He wants to get you under his control, he wants you to give up your faith in Me, to detach yourselves from Me and surrender to him through equally bad actions and unkindness …. Do not let yourselves be deceived, wait in patience and trust in My help …. Wherever you are met with hatred, repay it with love; wherever you are hostile, bless in My name, speak My name often and sincerely when you are in need, and you will be inwardly strengthened and have the strength to repay bad with good. In contact with Me, trusting in My help, you will be able to do everything, and My adversary’s activity will remain unsuccessful, only pushing you ever more towards Me, Who is your father from eternity …. And after heartfelt prayer hand yourselves over to the beings of light who are only waiting for your call to them, who will now assist you on My behalf but may not do so until they are instructed by Me …. until you approach Me Myself for help …. They are happy to be allowed to help you, and where you yourselves feel too weak their work begins because they are with you to protect and help you as guides on your path through life …. You are never too weak to resist your enemies if only you first take the right path to Me, because then countless helpers will stand by your side but they are not allowed to intervene until they have received the order from Me …. Why then do you want to be timid? There are all kinds of means which will help you in times of need …. you only ever turn to your God with complete trust …. But what benefit your soul can derive from all the trials and sufferings that are imposed on you, that you cannot measure, but one day you will thank Me for the earthly path you had to cover for the sake of your perfection …. which earned you the close bond with Me, which was indeed a crusade for you but unimaginably beneficial if you covered it in My discipleship …. And never forget that no adversity is so great that I cannot remedy it …. One is always at your side and only waits for your call …. And His help will truly not fail to come ….
Amen

Characteristic of the church of Christ ….
B.D. 6445 from January 6th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
The working of My spirit is the characteristic of My church which I Myself founded on earth …. Time and again I must tell you that you can only recognise My church by that, that you are only members of the church of Christ when the spirit is able to work in you …. when your thinking is enlightened, even if you are not called on to accomplish extraordinary things …. Enlightened thinking demonstrates the strength of My spirit which, however, can only express itself when the preconditions are fulfilled …. when selfless activity of love has established the bond between the spiritual spark within you and its Father-Spirit …. Then you will also be able to have a living faith, for love will have brought the faith in you alive and the spirit within you will brightly and clearly realise which teachings correspond to the truth, thus you will also uphold them with conviction towards your fellow human beings. As long as you still live in error, as long as your faith is merely a conventional faith without life, the spirit will not be active in you yet and neither will you be able to say that you belong to the church of Christ …. the church which I Myself founded on earth. Alone the fact that you humans are unaware of this or, if you are told, do not want to believe it, proves that you don’t belong to My church as yet; it proves that you are spiritually unenlightened, and it proves that you don’t live a loving way of life, otherwise your thinking would change by itself and enable you to recognise the truth of these Words of Mine ….
Let Me earnestly remind you to live a life of unselfish love …. For this is the first condition in order to awaken the spiritual spark in you, so that it will become active …. so that it will grant you realisation of the truth …. But don’t adhere to external formalities, don’t accept what you are told by unenlightened people, by what they, in turn, accepted from other unenlightened people and subsequently firmly endorse as truth. Acquire the truth for yourselves by asking Me for it …. Don’t just be content with the teaching material that is given to you but dwell on it first before you accept it, and appeal to Me for help in order to recognise the truth …. And providing this is your sincere will I shall truly guide your thoughts correctly, because it is My will that you shall attain the truth and I will do everything in order to convey it to you, only your free will to seriously desire the truth is necessary. I cannot approve your lethargy of thinking; I cannot praise you humans for unreservedly believing what you are being told without first forming your own opinion about it. I won’t condemn you if you, despite your best intentions, don’t think that you can accept something …. even if it is the truth …. But I will condemn you if you accept spiritual knowledge without thinking about it, because spiritual knowledge must become a certainty in you and this is only possible if you mentally look at it from every angle and, in order to then think correctly, ask Me Myself for help …. Such a request is so pleasing to Me that I will truly grant it, but how seldom does an appeal like that rise up to Me …. And therefore it will also be impossible for you to attain a living faith, it will be impossible for My spirit to work in you because you don’t grant it the right to express itself. And for this reason you will never be able to claim that you belong to My church which I established on earth, whose characteristic is ‘the working of the spirit’ in the human being which ‘will guide you into truth …. ‘, which will also make you realise that your life is a waste of time as long as you don’t live a life of love and unite yourselves with Me through love ….
Amen

The power of the divine word ….
B.D. 6446 from January 7th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
My word gives strength to all who are weak and powerless and desire to be strengthened by Me. For when I address them Myself they receive what they need from the source of strength, because My love for those who lie weakened on the ground fills Me. My word contains the strength which lets the sick recover, and everyone is sick who cannot work in divine fullness of strength as was his original purpose. For you humans are all weakened or you would not have to walk the earthly path. And therefore you need all the strength you can receive in abundance from My word, which I always offer to you with love. As long as you humans pass it by you will have no appreciable ascent to report unless you live in love …. But then you will also unconsciously accept My word, for it is I Myself Who is in you through love and Whose voice you follow in all thought and action …. But anyone who closes his ear to My word, who believes that he can fulfil his actual earthly task without My word, will always become weaker in strength to work with love, for his weakened state will always become more obvious and manifest itself through completely God-opposing thoughts and actions …. because strength is required to live according to My will, which you yourselves do not possess as a result of your past fall but which is abundantly available to you in earthly life in the presentation of My word, the acceptance of which, however, is left up to you …. As soon as you are addressed by Me a source of grace opens up for you which flows unstoppably but from which you have to draw yourselves in order to be able to refresh yourselves. A spring can constantly let the freshest water flow out …. if you don’t bow down and open your hand and mouth you will not be able to refresh yourselves from it …. And thus you yourselves must be willing to let My word flow into you, only then will you also experience the effect of the word on yourselves …. you will feel strengthened in body and soul, because My word is strength in itself which always has its effect if it can penetrate the heart, i.e. if it is willingly listened to, considered and followed …. Then it will give you life, you will be able to rise from the ground and be active, and you will never lack strength because you can always turn to Me, Who has always assured you of My help through My word …. For I have said: Ask and it will be given to you …. but you must first hear these words of Mine, you must know that I have spoken them to you and therefore listen to them first, but then you will know what you have to do when you are in distress of body and soul …. Then you will know that you need only turn to Me, you will know that a helper is always at your side, you can now live your whole earthly life according to the knowledge which My word has imparted to you …. You will live in love if you are serious about taking My word as your guideline, and through love you will attain maturity of soul, because you will always unite with Me more if you practice love …. You must know everything before you consciously take the earthly path, and My word imparts this knowledge to you …. And because I love you, My word also simultaneously gives you the strength to carry out what I ask of you through My word …. Always let yourselves be addressed by Me and you will master every weakness, but don’t reject Me if you don’t want to be weak and helpless for all eternity ….
Amen

Hoarding the matter …. stimulating the opponent ….
B.D. 6447 from January 8th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
What My spirit imparts to people is to be regarded as truth alone …. And therefore all spiritual knowledge conveyed to you must correspond to this sole truth from Me, otherwise it originated from another whose endeavour is and will always remain to fight the truth and who also uses such means for this purpose which are intended to feign Me Myself as the source …. Whatever I give to people will only ever serve to attain maturity of soul, which was set as people’s actual earthly aim …. because My love wants to help them become free from every material bondage in order to be able to enter the spiritual kingdom after death carefree. And every word which is conveyed to earth by Me Myself only ever has this one purpose, to instil maturity of soul into you. I will only ever admonish people to liberate themselves, and I will also give you the comprehensible reason for it, I will enlighten you as to what all matter actually is in essence and in what way the spiritualization of those takes place in an infinitely long time …. My concern will only ever be for your soul, the spiritual in material form …. The detachment from matter is such a significant act, it is an act of utmost importance, that never again will My word contain a suggestion to hoard matter …. to increase it and to enjoy its possession …. But all this stimulates My adversary …. and you may believe these words of Mine that My adversary has gained influence wherever these phenomena can be followed, that riches accumulate, that these riches are used to feast people’s eyes, that these riches do not serve the purpose which alone is to be spoken of as a blessing of wealth: to relieve poor and needy people of their state of misery …. My adversary will always know how to prevent this, and by this you humans will also be able to recognize where My adversary rules, and you will also be able to be certain that no truth can be found there either, because My adversary will always fight against the truth, but especially in his territory, because he will also find his loyal followers there who are submissive to him. My word from above provides information about My adversary’s activities in the last days before the end …. And he who belongs to My own also sees the signs of the end and only cares for his soul …. My adversary, however, does not want to accept this end and neither do all those like him …. And these are driven by him to make provisions for a time which will no longer be …. And people willingly follow his suggestions; they do not think about the near end but create and work and plan and build for times to come and thereby prove their walk in darkness and their lord to whom they have submitted themselves …. My word alone is truth, and this word announces to you that you humans are all facing the end …. If you believed these words of Mine you would not succumb to greed for material goods, you would only ever try to make the last days bearable for each other, you would be more mindful of people living in greatest need whom you could help …. And you would turn to the pure word of God and clearly recognize where My adversary is at work, then you would also no longer allow yourselves to be deceived by deceptive work, by webs of lies, you would obviously recognize the father of lies who wants to alienate you from the truth …. For you would also recognize how different the spiritual knowledge is which was offered to you from that which I Myself guide to earth. Yet as long as you yourselves are willing to be ever more firmly chained to matter you will also be blind in spirit, and so long will you also remain in its power …. You are facing the end and all your striving is in vain …. Therefore detach yourselves from matter before it is too late, lest it become your grave ….
Amen

Receiving the truth requires detachment from the past ….
B.D. 6448 from January 10th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
A ray of light emanates from Me which can never be darkened …. but which also relentlessly uncovers and illuminates everything that would rather remain hidden, that cannot tolerate the bright light …. And this is the characteristic of the ‘truth from God’, that it gives bright light to the one who is in darkness and longs for light …. that a person attains complete enlightenment, which now also gives the ability to judge, to distinguish truth from error …. Although every human being claims to possess the truth when he wants to defend his own spiritual knowledge. But as long as there are still unanswered questions, as long as the meaning and purpose of what happens on earth is not comprehensible, and as long as the human being does not yet possess knowledge of My eternal plan of salvation, it is impossible for him to live in truth, for this gives him brightest knowledge about everything. And this truth can only be conveyed to people by Me, Who am truth itself …. and I, in turn, can only convey it to those who are so filled with desire for truth that they open themselves to Me for the sake of pure truth and allow Me to give to them what cannot be supplied to them from another side. And they must free themselves from all spiritual knowledge they have received so far …. They must not be burdened with knowledge which they are not willing to relinquish. They must acknowledge Me Myself as the only source and come to the source hungering and thirsting but not with a filled stomach …. For I will not give delicious food to those who are already satiated, who have already received their nourishment elsewhere. I will feed the hungry and the thirsty, I will give a pure bread and a fresh water to those who need food for their souls …. And this food will always be for their recovery when they are sick, it will give strength to those who are weak …. But it would have no life-awakening effect on those who come to Me with a full stomach …. Do you understand this comparison? Only very few people are willing to free themselves from preconceived opinions, from spiritual knowledge which they have acquired intellectually or which has been implanted into them through human teachings, through an exchange of thoughts with people who walk in error …. for which people’s deep spiritual state and their spiritual darkness is the explanation …. But if the human being wants to stand in truth, then I require him to completely turn away from what he had previously accepted as spiritual knowledge. I demand that he comes to Me with an empty heart and lets Me fill it and that he no longer eats any food other than that which I now offer him …. For the pure truth from Me does not tolerate any human accessory, and My source of life will close itself to him who does not fulfil My conditions …. And surely you humans can understand that I know about the innermost emotions of the human heart and that no human words can deceive Me? …. Yet the ray of My light will ignite in every person and spread bright light again if he desires to know the truth. And he will be able to judge what does not correspond to the truth. But the former will not even be able to recognize the truth because the pure light will be outshone by dazzling light, which I certainly allow because the human being’s will itself gives rise to it. These people will increasingly lose themselves in erroneous thinking yet always cling to it more tenaciously, for darkness fights against light, and especially in the time of the end when a ray of love …. the truth from Me …. brightly illuminates the activity of the one who is against the truth. And this battle is fought by you humans yourselves; you alone decide whether you live in truth or in wrong thinking, for you can receive the truth from Me at any time if you do what I ask: truly come to Me hungering and thirsting in order to receive the nourishment for your souls from Me …. Then it will become light in you and you will see brightly and clearly that I am the eternal truth Myself ….

Convinced acknowledgement of Jesus Christ ….
B.D. 6449 from January 11th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
No one can free himself from satan’s bondage without Jesus Christ …. But it is of no use if a person only calls himself a christian in name, if he does not consciously reject Jesus, but the person must first have seriously committed himself to Him …. he must be aware of his guilt, he must recognize his own imperfection and believe that Jesus Christ can redeem him from his guilt and weakness and consciously ask Him for it …. So he must place himself under His cross …. Every person must realize that salvation through Jesus Christ is not a formal, general act which is carried out in a template-like way for everyone; he must realize that he himself must do something in order to participate in salvation through Jesus Christ …. Jesus Christ has indeed redeemed all people, i.e. no-one is excluded from His work of mercy, yet His redemption does not take place against the human being’s will …. And therefore the human being must first declare his will to want to be redeemed by Him …. And therefore it is a fully conscious matter which first requires to mentally deal with the problem of God’s human manifestation and Jesus Christ’s crucifixion, to consciously profess Jesus Christ and now also to live according to His will on earth …. The convinced acknowledgement of Jesus Christ will also let people call to Him for help, which will certainly be granted to them for the sake of the work of redemption …. To be redeemed means to become free from the power of the one who pulls man down …. To be redeemed means to be able to strive upwards carefree, which was not possible before Jesus’ death on the cross, because God’s adversary did not let any soul go free. But how many people on earth believe that by merely confessing Jesus Christ with their mouths they are ‘christians’, i.e. that they have a claim to salvation through Him ….? They believe that by doing so they have escaped the supposed fate of those who are heathens in their eyes …. They believe that their ‘faith’ in Jesus Christ and His work of redemption is enough, but it is only a formal faith as long as the inner transformation into a living christian has not yet taken place in them. This is why even these formal christians will not be able to resist when they are forced to make the final decision, they will then give up their faith with an easier heart because it has not yet come alive in them, and they will bear witness to the fact that they are and were true pagans who had only acquired a false name …. But there is no salvation without Jesus Christ …. And therefore this last decision means a strengthened fetter which God’s adversary puts on them, and to become free from this fetter will take an inconceivably long time until once again Jesus Christ will reach out to them, which they did not want to see in this life and therefore did not take hold of …. How easily all people could still escape this great danger, because Jesus Christ is proclaimed everywhere in the world …. and His name is made known everywhere with persuasive power, because every person could be impressed by it and seriously think about the significance of His act of salvation …. for once. If only the will were present, Jesus Christ Himself would help and bring Himself to people’s minds …. He would mentally speak to him Himself and truly make it easy for him to walk the path to Him …. if only the will were present to receive light on this question, which is truly the most important for you humans …. But the formal believer has nothing in advance of the unbeliever, for he is just as far removed from Jesus Christ as the latter. And therefore there is great hardship amongst humanity, and only a few people will escape this hardship ….
Amen

Change of will …. Jesus Christ …. Mercy – light – strength ….
B.D. 6450 from January 12th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
Anyone who knows the guilt of the spirits, which was the cause for creation, the cause for the earthly progress and people’s lives on earth, will no longer resist Me, for this knowledge is the result of directing the will towards Me …. This knowledge can certainly also be presented to those whose will is opposed to Me. However, they will never regard and accept such knowledge as truth, they will only ever consider it a mental concept which they reject as being ‘conceived’ by people. In that case they will never be illuminated by the light of realisation …. because this requires the said change of will which turns a person into My child that has returned to Me. Neither his own mental activity nor a communication from fellow human beings can bestow the right realisation onto a person, for this is like a light which I Myself ignite in a person, but I can only do so once he has voluntarily turned to Me …. But a voluntary turning to Me also testifies of his will to relinquish his previous state of resistance and to travel the path back which once led him away from his Father. Hence it is a conscious turning back and therefore also a confession of his past wrong doing …. of his sin against God …. The will to serve Me confirms this unconscious admission of his former guilt when, through the rejection of My love, the being exalted itself over the One Who merely wanted to give Himself away …. The appeal for strength and grace is likewise an admission of guilt, the realisation that his past sin had deprived him of everything that had been his share in the very beginning …. A person who is still entrenched in his old sin will not call upon the Father for strength and light and grace, because he does not acknowledge Me, thus he is still immersed in his original sin, and therefore he will never accept the truth of the kind of information which draws his attention to his sinful state ….
And therein also rests the great significance of a change of will, for it repeals the past state of sin but can never be accomplished by a person’s own strength, because the fall into the abyss and the sin had been too immense to enable the completely weakened being to change itself again …. And therefore only the One who can remedy the weakness of will has to be called upon, Who died on behalf of these beings on the cross so as to be able to strengthen their will for walking the path back to Me …. Anyone who feels truly remorseful has already handed himself over to Jesus Christ, he has made use of His blessings which He acquired on the cross for the sinful human race …. For a turning to Me will also always be connected with the acknowledgment of Jesus Christ …. since the light within a human being can only shine in full strength, that is, bring realisation to a person, once he has been redeemed by Jesus’ blood, since prior to this My spirit cannot work in the person to enlighten his thinking and restore the order which is a divine principle. The acknowledgment of God and subordination to His will also always results in the acknowledgment of Jesus as the Son of God and Redeemer of the world …. For anyone who unites with Me again steps out of his state of darkness and also brightly realises the mission of the man Jesus and the significance of the act of Salvation …. He wants to return, and that also means a return to enlightenment, it means the receipt of strength and grace …. it means receiving My love in abundance …. he admits his guilt and appeals for forgiveness. The being’s feeling of distance from Me, its God and Creator of eternity, expresses itself in its prayer for grace, strength and light …. It has relinquished its past arrogance, returned to Me with profound humility and is now able to receive blessings, strength and light without measure …. The guilt is written in the sand …. The divine Redeemer Jesus Christ has redeemed it Himself ….
Amen

Using of the last grace in free will ….
B.D. 6451 from January 13th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
You are free to avail yourselves of the unusual supply of strength which is given to you in the last days, even though you do not desire it. I grant you mercy for justice, I shower you with the evidence of My love, I help you to ascend effortlessly if you still want to undertake it …. And I give you the assurance that you will still reach the aim as soon as you are serious about it …. You don’t know that I perform a work of mercy on you which can still save you if only you muster the will to take hold of My saving hand …. I do everything to save you from the dreadful fate of a new banishment, but one thing I cannot do …. to determine you to accept My immense gift of grace …. You have to do this of your own accord, but strength and grace are abundantly at your disposal because there is not much time left until the end …. Yet you don’t appreciate the grace that I speak to you Myself, that every one of you is allowed to hear Me, that I approach every one of you like a father to his child and warn and admonish it and reveal Myself to it in My love. But it is as if you close your ears and eyes in order not to see and hear what is going on around you …. It is as if you lack the right senses …. you can no longer think correctly and always want the wrong thing, you walk your path in complete blindness, and if a hand offers you guidance you push it back, you unwillingly reject anyone who wants to help you, and your father has to watch you voluntarily running to your ruin …. But no matter how eagerly My love wants your salvation, I do not determine your will …. And therefore it is every person’s own business how he still uses the short time until the end …. But he still has every opportunity to escape eternal death, he only has to want his earthly life to lead to the aim for which he received it. If only every person could muster the will not to live in vain then this would already be a step towards ascent, yet people have other aims …. and these aims fill their whole thinking and wanting. They lust for possessions, for recognition and sensual enjoyment …. They strive for everything they should learn to overcome in earthly life. They live in completely wrong thinking and are inaccessible to every instruction of their actual earthly life. And thus My rich treasure of grace is not taken into account, they pass by what is offered to them for their salvation …. And the darkness which is spread over the earth grows ever greater …. But it is people’s own fault, for although My adversary works in an unheard-of way, because his last time has come, people could free themselves from his power, because the gifts of grace flow just as abundantly, which would impart strength to every person in order to be able to resist him …. But it is about a free decision of will; it is about which lord you choose …. And no-one may force you to make this decision of will, you must make it freely, and therefore you also determine your fate in free will after the death of your body …. You don’t need to get lost, but you must want your life yourselves …. That is why I repeatedly let My voice sound from above, that is why I repeatedly approach you in the word. And I pour out My grace on you in abundance …. But how you use it is up to you ….
Amen

Final phase …. Battle of faith ….
B.D. 6452 from January 14th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
You will soon enter the final phase which has been mentioned since the start of this period of Salvation …. The end of this earth is imminent and before long you will notice the signs which have always been proclaimed by seers and prophets. And thus everything will come to pass, because My Word is truth and I Myself have spoken through the mouth of these prophets. Everything I gave permission to predict concerning the end was merely intended to spur you humans into working at improving your soul and, hence, there have often been times during this period of Salvation when people had reason to believe that the end was approaching …. And this was certainly necessary because people’s depravity gave credence to an intervention by Me and, time and again, a few would tackle their psychological work even more eagerly and truly be saved for eternal life …. Nevertheless, the time had not come; Satan had not gained unlimited power over people as yet, albeit outright devils wreaked havoc on earth during this time as well. Humanity was granted a longer period of time because many bound spirits had yet to embody themselves for the final test of will on this earth. My plan of Salvation proceeds according to the law of eternal order, and no period will ever be concluded a day too soon or too late, because I foresaw from the beginning what is helpful or detrimental for the souls’ development. However, Satan’s activity is becoming increasingly more appalling because many bound substances are being released and, through his influence, act in accordance with his wishes. Consequently, people’s behaviour is also becoming increasing more malevolent the closer it gets to the end …. For this reason My adversary deems himself strong enough to gain complete victory over Me and finally oversteps the limits of his authority which were imposed upon him when he fell into the abyss. And once this moment in time has come his activity will be brought to an end …. and that means the end of a period of Salvation, it means the disintegration of every form, the release of its indwelling bound spiritual substance and the renewed banishment into forms which correspond to the spirits’ state of maturity ….
This overstepping of authority will clearly manifest itself and is a distinct sign of the near end …. For My adversary will openly oppose Me by trying to force himself upon people, by compelling them to renounce Me… by intending to destroy every spiritual connection with Me in order to gain control over the whole human race …. Anyone who knows about the purpose of life on earth, which consists of the human being’s free decision of will, also knows that this would be completely prevented by My adversary’s plan, and he equally knows that this is the moment in time when I will put a stop to his raging, when I will enchain him again and with him all his followers …. And then he will also understand all prophesies which point to the end …. Therefore take notice of My adversary’s final work by which you can clearly recognise the time you are living in …. take notice of the efforts intended to destroy people’s faith, take notice of everything that is clearly recognisable as the activity of the Antichrist …. And, above all, pay attention to how people are being attacked who, in truth, are of service to Me and seek to distribute the truth …. And as soon as you can recognise all the signs of a forthcoming battle of faith you will know that you have entered the final phase of this earth’s existence, and then you, who want to remain true to Me, must prepare yourselves and enter this battle with confidence and strength, and know that I Am leading the way, that you fight on My behalf and truly are and will remain invincible, even if you are hopelessly outnumbered compared to My adversary’s multitude …. Nevertheless, I will defeat him and take him captive when the hour has come which has been determined for eternity …. And you, My faithful followers, will emerge from this battle into a new life and will no longer be pressed by the one who is and will remain My adversary for eternities to come ….
Amen

Different course of development of the fallen ….
B.D. 6453 from January 16th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
The divine word resounds far out into infinity, for the father constantly addresses His children and His creations, constantly conveys the strength to all beings which animates them …. As long as the being is still imperfect, as long as it is still bound in creations of all kinds, it certainly receives the strength but does not understand the word emanating from God …. But in a certain state of maturity it is able to do so, and then the attainment of a state of bliss is also certain …. But there are also beings which are certainly able but unwilling to listen to God’s word. Nevertheless, it sounds to this spiritual being because its purpose is to change its will so that it will one day consciously desire and be able to receive God’s word. God Himself addresses all beings which are in possession of free will …. Everywhere in the universe are creations which shelter spiritual substances which have matured to such an extent that they are able to receive the divine word, and light beings are everywhere ready to act as mediators if that spiritual substance itself does not yet possess the degree of maturity to hear it directly, which is why the beings in all worlds also have knowledge of God, their creator and sustainer from eternity …. And the degree of light in which those beings move is determining for the abundance and the kind of knowledge which is imparted to them through God’s word. Hence the eternal truth is spread throughout infinity, and all beings are in knowledge of the ‘one God’ as the supremely perfect being from Whom all beings once originated …. And yet there is a difference between the beings of those worlds in the universe and the people on this earth …. a difference which only becomes comprehensible when the former apostasy of the originally created spirits from God is regarded as ‘having happened in infinite periods of time’ …. which therefore signifies a fall from grace of such different kind and depth that also the kind of ablation, the return and conditions for it require completely different worlds and creations and also the beings animating these creations are completely different in their perception and therefore all have to cover different developmental paths in order to reach God again. However, this knowledge is not necessary for people, it is only intended to make them understand that God’s plan of salvation and His infinite care not only extends to the embodied spiritual beings on earth but also applies to the other world creations without exception. His address, however, always touches the beings as they need it according to their former guilt and their distance from God …. (16.1.1956) The apostasy of the first-created being, the bearer of light, was not a sudden affair but took place over an inconceivably long time until this being landed in the lowest abyss. And its appendage was also of different kinds, depending on the strength of the first being’s defence against God’s strength of love, which again took effect on the beings created by it. Thus the will of resistance was certainly placed in each of these created beings but in different degrees …. which, however, by no means excuses those beings which fell and followed him into the abyss …. For the illumination of love on God’s part was nevertheless so strong that it would have sufficed to break the beings’ will of resistance but did not determine their free will to turn towards the outcome of this strength of love …. But again the light radiation had different effects so that beings also received a glimmer of realization which also caused them to separate from their producer, which hindered them in their fall into the abyss, although they too had distanced themselves from God in free will. Therefore they had also become sinful, only their path is not as endless, and the return of these beings does not require such a long time as the beings from the deepest abyss require …. Yet the glimmer of realization which once remained with these beings would, in turn, also have sufficed for the recognition of the guilt of having turned away from God. But the will of rejection was just as strong towards God as towards their fallen creator …. and this will of rejection must also be broken in them, which is also much easier but the most blissful delights of childship to God are not accessible to these beings …. for their change to ascent takes place in works of creation which have a completely different design than earth, which serves as a training station for the deeply fallen …. for these beings have to go through dreadful torments of purification before they emerge from the deepest darkness to a small glimmer of light which then shows them the path to ascent …. They have to unimaginably atone for their guilt already on earth, and the change from a being completely dominated by God’s adversary into God’s image is an act of will which God also rewards with supreme beatitude, which earns the being the childship of God, which therefore demands the walk across this earth …. But God maintains contact with all His creations, with all beings inhabiting these creations …. But the will determines whether these connections are used, whether they manifest themselves. For where there is still a will of resistance against God’s illumination of love, it will also have no effect of light and strength …. His word ceaselessly resounds in infinity …. God’s will is therefore known everywhere because His word only ever declares His will …. Only there must always and everywhere be mediators who hear it from God Himself and then pass it on, be it into earthly or spiritual creations or in the kingdom of spirits, which have not yet found a permanent abode and wander about until they also find a place again where they should and can prove themselves anew …. Thus God’s word must also sound to them, but in those realms a soul is rarely able to hear God’s word unless an unrecognized being of light dwells amongst them, which has precisely this mission to impart …. All celestial bodies offer abode to maturing souls, always according to their will and disposition …. But the same word, the same truth from God, sounds everywhere. But what it means to have been embodied on earth can only be explained to you humans through the word of God, and you will only understand it when your course of development is finished and you dwell as blissful beings of light in higher spheres …. where everything has become comprehensible to you and where the infinite distance from God becomes obvious to you and the infinitely long path you have already travelled …. The lesser distance from God has no influence on the depth of God’s love for His creatures, but the maturing process is a different one, and the ultimate aim, the childship to God, can only be reached through an ascent from the deepest depth to the height …. Just the furthest distance, the burden of this sin is such a seemingly insurmountable gulf that it therefore requires a helper, and this helper …. Jesus Christ …. makes this ascent possible. Yet the beatitudes in the spiritual kingdom are immeasurable, and all beings can take possession of them and continuously serve God in inconceivable bliss. His children, however, are closest to Him, they will receive the illumination of love directly from Him, they will constantly hear His address and pass on His sanctified word again, for they consciously handed themselves over to their saviour and redeemer Jesus Christ in earthly life and He drew them to His heart in hot mercy …. where they will also remain for all eternity ….
Amen

Guests on earth …. Right custodians ….
B.D. 6454 from January 19th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
Always remember that you are only guests on this earth, that the transient realm is not your true home, that you are only temporarily here so that you can fully matured return to your home, which you had voluntarily left some time ago, but that one day you have to return to where you came from. If you were more conscious of your task on earth, if you would really only feel like guests on this earth, you would not attempt to settle down in this world of illusion either. You would always only remember to return home richly blessed, you would only want to acquire on earth what you may take across with you and all other accomplishments would appear useless and worthless to you, and then your maturity would be guaranteed, you would fulfil the purpose of your earthly life and need never fear to waste your time …. because as ‘guests’ you would not want to acquire what you would have to leave behind and thus aspire towards other things ….
However, as long as you don’t feel as guests but as masters of this earth you fail to understand your true purpose of earthly life and all you intentions, thoughts and actions will be wrong, they will not correspond to the goal of improving your soul’s maturity. And even if you possess earthly wealth, if you are richly blessed with earthly goods …. as long as you merely regard yourselves as custodians you will make correct use of your possessions and by doing so acquire spiritual wealth too. You should always handle borrowed wealth correctly, that is, you should not want to be the sole beneficiary but also allow other people to benefit from it …. Then it will be a blessing to you and you will gain everlasting spiritual wealth.
As you receive you shall also give …. because the Lord, Who serves His guests abundantly, wants to give everyone what they need, and He Himself will invite His guests to share their gifts with anyone who requires them. Therefore you, too, should remember that every human being has the same right to the things he needs for living, that every human being is a guest on this earth, just as you are, and that the Lord does not want that any one of His guests should go without and that you therefore do His will when you give your fellow human beings gifts of love …. One day you will have to surrender everything anyway. Therefore try to dispose of it voluntarily in advance because such an action will not reap a loss but a double blessing for you which you can only understand when you leave this earth and find a treasure in the beyond …. when you understand that with your action on earth you have acquired many people’s love which will follow you into eternity ….
How blind are those people who accumulate possessions, who enjoy their earthly possessions and don’t allow anyone to partake in them …. and how deprived will be their fate after the death of their body. You humans know that your earthly life is temporary and yet your life shows no preparations for your real life in the kingdom which truly exists but which can be of rather diverse quality since it is up to you how you prepare it. If you have given love to other people on earth you will find much loving assistance there, you will receive as you yourselves have given and, indeed, you truly will not lose but every gift you share with a loving heart will bring a thousand-fold return. Just consider yourselves as guest on this earth and look at everything you own as property on loan which you may use as you wish …. And accordingly manage these possessions in the spirit of God Who gave them to you; use them with love …. and you will experience a blessing which you cannot appreciate as long as you live on earth …. Then you will return to your true home richly laden and shaped as you were when you once left ….
Amen

Influence by spiritual forces …. possession ….
B.D. 6455 from January 20th 1956, taken from Book No. 69
It is left up to you humans alone what benefit you derive from your earthly life …. The path you have to take is marked out for you, i.e., everything fatefully approaches you in such a way that every day, every experience and every thought can serve your soul towards perfection …. Yet the evaluation of all this is entirely up to you, i.e. you can allow your thoughts, intentions and actions to be determined by the fact that you move entirely within divine order, but you can also consciously close your mind to every deeper impression, you can only look at your course of life in a purely worldly way, which you prove by believing that you can master your destiny yourselves or steer life in a different direction. It is your own will that is decisive …. And both good and bad forces try to influence this will; forces which want to help you to live a blissful life after the death of the body and those which want to prevent your transformation, your perfection. Now these can only ever influence your will, and they do it in every conceivable way. These forces either belong to God or are His opponents …. they have access to you according to your will, but they cannot force your will …. This must be emphasized that you humans are not under their control, that they cannot force their way into your house against your will but that you must open the door for them yourselves, through which they now find entrance to you. Thus your soul can still be strongly subject to the law of instinct …. which means that its substances have not yet sufficiently purified themselves in the preliminary development, in the state of compulsion, that they still carry much of the instinctual from this state within them …. And the consequence of this is that spiritual forces of the same disposition, thus beings with the same instinctuality, do not find the defence of the will when they seek to influence it …. Then those ’emissaries’ of God’s adversary influence the human being and often with success …. In the same way, however, the beings of light, the forces which are active on God’s behalf, also want to win over people’s will, and they can likewise only achieve this through mental transmission …. And the human being himself decides which thoughts he gives space to within himself …. As soon as he gives in to the urge of the beings of light despite his instincts, he expels all evil spirits which want to harm him. Thus the human being must free his soul substances from the drives still clinging to them, from everything that still contradicts the divine order, from all characteristics which still prove a wrongly directed love, for the soul was granted earthly life as a human being for this purpose, so that it can become …. as a once fallen original spirit …. completely purge itself of everything impure which still separates this original spirit from God …. And this work must proceed in complete free will. If a soul is excessively oppressed by God’s adversary and his followers that it is too weak to resist them because it does not call upon the one Who can give it the necessary strength …. then the evil forces can certainly take possession of the person and throw the soul far back again, yet this does not always mean the complete fall into the abyss, because the soul’s other nature still enables an ascent in the kingdom of the beyond, which is why souls which are very weakened are often suddenly called away and, due to their complete apathy, no longer offer the evil forces a point of attack in the kingdom of the beyond and therefore can slowly find themselves again and the influence of good forces can then be successful. Every human being is exposed to the oppression of spiritual beings which try to influence him mentally. But against his will such beings are not allowed to settle in a body, yet the soul substances similar to him feel addressed and start to revolt …. And the human being’s will can command them to be silent, yet only ever when Jesus Christ gives him the necessary strengthening …. when the human being fully hands himself over to the divine redeemer so that He will deliver him from all spiritual adversity ….
Amen

The only way to knowledge ….
B.D. 6456 from January 21st 1956, taken from Book No. 69
A vast area has been opened up to you who listen to My word, which is not accessible to other people unless they accept your teachings about it and now try to explore this area in the same way …. that they let themselves be taught by Me through the spirit. And what you desire to know he will teach you …. Therefore, first the connection with Me Myself is necessary, only then can the barriers fall which are set for you as a human being and which your intellect cannot break down. But through the intimate connection with Me you allow powers to become active within you which you all certainly possess but which lie idle as long as you isolate yourselves from Me …. However, the connection with Me allows these forces to become active, because they were initially active in you and will always be active when the separation from Me is lifted …. You were once full of light and strength, you possessed the highest knowledge and unlimited power as long as you let yourselves be permeated by My strength of love …. Again and again you have to hear that your former abundance of light and strength is still available to you if you let yourselves be permeated by My strength of love again of your own accord, but for this the intimate connection with Me is indispensable. And to stand in fullness of light also means to possess fullest knowledge like once …. thus to know everything. Then My love, My spirit, will shine through you and illuminate your thinking, and all veils will fall before your eyes, the limited knowledge of the intellect will be broadened; even that which the human being’s intellect cannot fathom will be comprehensible to you …. All areas are opened up to you, and you can understand and explain everything about which the human being cannot obtain clarification elsewhere …. about spiritual problems, about your being and your and creation’s meaning and purpose …. and about the being Which surpasses everything in perfection and cannot be denied by any thinking human being. Such knowledge should be desirable to you all …. And it would also be accessible to all of you, but without intimate contact with Me it will never be received. And since people do not allow even the smallest ray of light to flare up within themselves, they also do not know how full of strength and light they once were and how miserable the state is in which they find themselves …. And the knowledge cannot be imparted to them either, because a transmission from person to person also requires a ray of light in order to be understood. Therein lies the great spiritual hardship that it depends on the will of the human being himself whether his cognitionless state, the darkness of his spirit, will change …. Even people of highly developed intellectual thinking are content to explore those areas which are only intended to be used for earthly purposes, but they have no desire for the knowledge which alone is blissful: for knowledge about the purpose of existence and the fundamental cause of all being …. And at the end of their days they stand in the same darkness in which they entered earth as a human being, for only the kingdom is real which they did not aspire to fathom …. because they did not establish a connection with Me that I could have let them have a glimpse into My kingdom …. You humans come into the world without light and strength but you can leave it full of light and strength if only you let yourselves be illuminated by My love …. Every questioning thought about Me will already earn you a ray of light which impels you to establish contact with Me, which then also secures you an abundant supply of strength of love …. And therefore it would be possible for every person to leave earthly life in a bright spiritual state, yet where the earthly world does not allow these questioning thoughts to arise, there the light cannot break through the darkness. The earthly world will much rather deepen it, the human being is not aware of his purpose of existence, and because he does not desire enlightenment he cannot be given light …. Yet you are to be called rich who have sought entrance into a realm which you may now fathom, where you are guided by My spirit …. Then you will stand in the light and no longer need to fear darkness ….

Need that teaches right praying ….
B.D. 6457 from January 22nd 1956, taken from Book No. 69
I grant you all My protection and My help if you appeal to Me for it. And therefore no person can get lost who has so much faith in himself that he calls to Me for mercy in utmost adversity. I will truly not let him get lost, for such a call proves that he believes in Me. However, words which are only spoken by the mouth are not a call to Me because the human being’s heart is then uninvolved and I only ever evaluate that which ascends to Me in spirit and in truth. But it is possible that even so-called formal christians send up a call to Me from their heart in times of greatest adversity, that they also have the certainty within themselves that there is a God Who can help them, and then turn to Him …. And I will not deceive this faith …. And the prayer of one person, which is thus sent up to Me in spirit and in truth, will achieve more than the lip prayer of masses who only use empty formulas and do not find the intimate connection with Me, whose faith in Me is thus a dead one, without strength and life …. And you humans will come into such adversity where only I can help you, and then it will prove who establishes the right relationship with Me, who commends himself to Me with all his heart and appeals for mercy. Only a completely hopeless state can bring about this appeal in weak or unbelieving people, when salvation no longer seems possible and the person almost gives up on himself …. Then he can remember Him Who has power and to Whom nothing is impossible …. And then all external coverings will fall off, then the human being will stand poor and humble before Him Whom he did not want to acknowledge but could not reject with conviction either, and then he will turn to Him with words which the heart stammers even if the mouth remains silent. And this one will not regret it eternally …. One day He will bless this great adversity which brought him the light of knowledge because he consciously established the bond with Me so that I could listen to him and also hear him. An anxious heart is most likely to let go of the rigid shell around it, it comes forth in all weakness and offers itself to Me, Whom it suddenly recognizes in its great adversity. But there must still be a spark of faith in it, which was buried and now shines through the great adversity as a tiny star of hope …. But anyone who is faithless will not find the way to Me even in greatest adversity, unless the strength of a fellow human being’s faith could persuade him to likewise surrender to a power he has not yet recognized …. I know every thought and take it into account, and I will truly not let anyone who can still be saved get lost, for My love and care is constantly directed towards the people of this earth so that they will still find their way to Me before the end …. Therefore, whatever happens shall only contribute towards people acknowledging Me, towards them consciously establishing contact with Me, because then they will not be lost for eternal times either …. You, who are of awakened spirit, should only regard all events in the coming time in such a way that they serve to save the fallen one …. For many things will still happen which will cause you to tremble …. And people will be inclined to deny a God of love. But you know what it is all about …. that I use all means to induce people to send a call to Me from their heart …. and that I therefore also have to resort to means which make you doubt My love and yet My love alone is decisive because I want to protect the souls from further banishment, from far greater adversity ….
Amen

Let God always be present to you ….
B.D. 6458 from January 23rd 1956, taken from Book No. 69
Carry all your concerns to Me and full of trust you can expect My help …. In times of earthly adversity you should remember these words so that they don’t depress you and make you unable to meet all the demands life places on you as well as to cope with spiritual work. As soon as you have handed everything over to Me in trust in My help, I will also take over your worries, and I will truly not let you ask in vain. Once you have achieved this strength of faith to submit every adversity and worry to Me and then let Me take care of you, nothing will frighten you anymore, no matter what happens to people, for your confidence in My help will not make anything seem so difficult that you will be afraid …. And such faith will be necessary in the time to come. Although I will always protect My own, not everything can pass them by without touching them, yet it can be mitigated or completely overcome by them themselves if they immediately think of Me and entrust their hardship and thoughts to Me Myself. And I want to make you all always feel Me close to you because then you will be relieved of all adversity. I am with you whenever you turn your thoughts towards Me. And therefore no event on earth shall influence you such that you exclude Me from your thoughts …. This is what you must practice, what you must never forget, that you yourselves secure My presence through your constant contact with Me …. And if I am present to you then nothing more can happen to you, then nothing more can burden you, for I Myself carry your burden because you hand it over to Me. The coming time will make great demands on you, spiritually as well as earthly, for every earthly burden can only be overcome by spiritual means if you humans don’t want to hand yourselves over to the one who certainly wants to give you earthly strength but then demands your soul in return. And the temptation is great if you are not aware of this and remain so, that you will then only enjoy a pleasurable life for a short time and then lose everything …. Only the clear realization that you humans are all close to the end can still save you by not succumbing to those temptations but by sincerely joining Me and appealing to Me for help …. and although I will not give you what My adversary offers you, your earthly life will nevertheless be bearable for you, and your strength will increase, and with a bright spirit you will only recognize everything as harbingers of the end, and you will endure in faith in Me and My coming when the time is fulfilled ….
Amen
