Anyone who confesses Me in Jesus Christ is and remains Mine for eternity …. You need not fear that I will hand you over to My adversary, who will indeed repeatedly harass you but has no power over you as long as your will is turned towards Me. My adversary certainly tries to separate you from Me, and his activity is often not easy to recognize under the cloak of piety …. For even those who sincerely strive towards Me are attacked by those who seem to strive for the same, for My adversary uses them if he cannot succeed in any other way to drive a wedge between Me and you …. For a person who seriously strives towards Me wants everything but not to act against My will …. And therefore My will is also held up to him from the opposing side in order to shake his belief that he is acting correctly. Yet you can believe that I Myself accept the one who has accepted Me into his heart through his conscious willful devotion to Me and the acknowledgement of My act of salvation in Jesus Christ. I would truly not be a God of love if I wanted to reward a person’s love for Me in such a way that I abandon him to ruin …. that I thus leave him to My adversary. And he need not fear to go wrong once he has faithfully given himself to Me and requested My guidance …. And thus I can only tell you again and again that the adversary’s activity will indeed not diminish and that he will again and again try to cast doubts into your hearts and that he will also use such people for this who also feel themselves to be ‘God’s representatives on earth’ …. but that they will only do his will if they are not yet intimately united with Me themselves, because then they would immediately feel his influence and resist it. But I protectively hold My hands over you and don’t let such temptations endanger you, because I know your will and you are already Mine through your devotion to Me. No matter how your further earthly life will turn out …. you can be certain of My guidance and fatherly care, and you can devote yourselves to the work for Me and My kingdom without worry, for this, too, will be watched over and guided by Me, because My adversary’s activity has to be counteracted by Me and you are instructed by Me to carry out this work. You should not worry about this, for precisely the attempts to dissuade you from this work for Me shall give you ever stronger impetus, because you can be certain that these attacks originate from My adversary …. precisely because you serve Me …. If you were to serve him you would truly be supported in every way, you would receive public honours, you would be brought into everyone’s field of vision, you would also pay homage to the world and be richly endowed with the goods of this world …. but you would never ever raise your voice for Jesus Christ and His act of salvation, you would rather speak out against Him, for then My adversary’s spirit would be active in you, and this would always express itself in an anti-christian way. You, who want to serve Me, need truly not fear to succumb to his power, for the very fact that you stand up for Jesus Christ is also your secure protection against his attacks, for He Whom you confess before the world is also on your side, and the adversary will have to surrender to him, he will have to release you who consciously confess Jesus Christ and thus want to serve Me, Who will be recognized and known by you in Jesus …. But every person has to answer for his will. And therefore it is good to fully subject this will to Me, then the human being will truly not be able to want and think differently than it corresponds to My will, for then My will will also be in him. But it is impossible for Me to want contradictory things from you …. thus I will not put it into one person’s heart to be active for Me and into another person’s heart to oppose this activity and dissuade the former from doing so …. Thus My adversary must be able to express himself in the latter, who is interested in stopping the work for Me and in My will …. or at least to awaken doubts in you as to whether your work is God-willed. Devotion to Me protects you from wrong thinking and wrong will, and therefore I only ever admonish you to join Me ever more intimately, and then you can also walk safely and unconcernedly on earth under My guidance, for I Myself will then guide you to the aim ….

Amen

No-one can be forced to believe; consequently it is impossible for divine revelations to be given in such a way that they cannot be doubted. But they can be recognised as divine revelations by someone with a serious will to understand, who therefore has an entirely open-minded attitude and seriously examines them. However, were people to be given irrefutable proof that they are addressed by God Himself, their thoughts and intentions would be determined by this proof …. thus it would exclude a free decision of will which, however, is the purpose and goal of life on earth. It truly would be easy for God to speak to people such that they no longer were able to doubt His existence, but in that case the purpose of earthly life would be missed, for the being’s deification is an act of free will, hence free will must remain inviolable, and this excludes all absolute proof. However, it is nevertheless possible for every person to procure his own inner conviction, for as soon as his will has chosen God by consciously wanting to approach Him, God Himself will give him the evidence of His love, wisdom and omnipotence …. He will manifest Himself to him in a way that he can no longer doubt and is happy about this gained realisation. But the grace of God’s manifestation is granted to every person …. Yet not every person evaluates it and attains realisation. Creation itself is already a manifestation of God, and it alone could serve the human being as living proof already, it could convince him of the eternal Creative Spirit Which manifests Itself through this creation. But even creation may not be faith-compelling evidence …. This is why the human being can also try to substantiate the emergence of creation in a different way …. which he surely will do by virtue of his free will if he isolates himself from God due to his opposing will and anti-divine nature. This person cannot believe because he does not want to. And to give such a person irrefutable proof would merely compel his will and the faith gained thereby would be totally worthless.

Different opinions will always exist in the world, that is, amongst the people of this earth, because not all people have the same will and not all of them evaluate the blessing flowing to them in the same way. But every individual sooner or later has the opportunity to spend some serious thought on a Power with Which he is connected through a life-preserving influx of strength …. He has the opportunity to draw a comparison between himself and the things He created …. and between himself and the One Who created him. He can come to the conclusion that ‘a God’ Who has created everything cannot be denied and that his own existence substantiates this God. Then he will be able to build upon this inner conviction and also consider God’s revelations possible and subsequently live his life according to these revelations, which will always result in his increasingly brighter realisation and therefore in indisputable faith even without proof. Human will may not be infringed upon if his progress on earth is to be successful, so that he will deify himself and be able to depart from this earth as a free being full of strength and light. However, the will should be stimulated in order to be deployed in the right direction …. And this happens through blessings …. through fateful events, through particular experiences, through bringing people with different directions of thought together …. and from time to time also through conveying divine revelations. And if the human being does not openly resist these blessings they can have positive effects, and there is a possibility for a change of will in the human being, that he will not reject everything which previously seemed incredible to him, that he will think about it and …. if he is of good will …. that his thoughts can be guided correctly without coercion. The human being need only realise that he is weak and small and unable to fathom everything with his intellect alone. The feeling of his own weakness and lack of knowledge can impel him towards the Power he can no longer deny to be above him. But anyone who deems himself knowledgeable, who overestimates his intellect, will never attain truth and wisdom, for he does not open himself to the Power Which would like to permeate him because he isolates himself from It. The human being must subject himself to this Power of his own free will, only then will he realise the relationship he has with this Power and he will know what he is, what he had been and what he shall become again ….

Amen

Countless heavenly bodies circle in the universe, that you people are not be able to see, that all have emerged from God’s strength of love, that’s to say they were once-radiated divine strength of love in their substance, but originally it had another destination. For this radiated strength of love were beings, who should be active by the will of God, but which have not fulfilled their original destination and used their own force in a will opposed to God. So these beings miseducated themselves to creatures in a completely adverse type to God, and they couldn’t stay in their deformity, because it contradicted the divine order. Therefore God reorganized these creatures, He dissolved them into countless tiny sparks of force, and from that He let arise new creatures of various kinds. That, what once was created as self-conscious beings, were now initially rigid structures, which God gave many different forms and the most various purpose determination. He brought (gathered) Himself so to speak once emanated strength from Him in specially created forms for that …. He created countless worlds by virtue of His will, that are basically all the same: transformed spiritual beings, but which should get back their original form, but therefore first must serve each other in God’s will …. Insofar all these worlds are connected with each other, that they have the same creative spirit as the Father, that they all are created by the same power and also they all have as a last aim the association with this creative spirit again. One will reigns all these worlds, and one strength preserves them. But nevertheless the different worlds are separated from each other, and none of the worlds comes into close contact with one another, because the basic substances of each single world are collected in accordance with it, and these basic substances have come more or less insubordinate to God and therefore they also need the most various individual creations, to organize themselves again and enter into the original state. Therefore each heavenly body is a work of creation for itself, all stars are different from each other in basic substance, creation and destination. Because the will to create of the eternal creative spirit is unlimited, because even His love ans His wisdom is limitless. And His last aim is, to get back all once radiated strength from Him as accomplished children, who can create and act with Him in the same will for their pleasure and their salvation. The earth is such a work of creation, that God let arise for the purpose, that miseducated beings can turn again to their original being through their own will after endless long time. But only the earth offers the possibility, to achieve the highest perfection, while the other worlds partly contain already highly developed beings, partly are teaching institutions for such self-aware beings, who did not reach the aim in life on earth, but still need and also can be able to get to a certain level of maturity, once being able to fulfill its original purpose. However, for the achievement of the highest aim only the earth is the responsible work of creation, but therefore a passage on this earth is also far more difficult than going through other worlds …. But in the end all creations in the universe serve only one purpose for the return of the spiritual, who once had fallen away from God. And therefore each creation will also remain strictly separated from the others, because the self-aware spiritual has to cover its course of development in complete freedom of will in each world …. but immediately this freedom of will would be at risk, if compelling evidence would arise by compounds of self-aware beings for the salvation plan of God and the free striving for perfection would be prevented from itself thereby. Although spiritual connections exist and can be initiated, but these do not exert any compulsory faith on the self-aware beings of this earth, they can be believed and not believed, and they only will exert a beneficient influence, if a certain state of maturity of those beings has already reached …. if people on earth have already recognized their purpose of existence and want to achieve their last aim …. Then they are already near completion, and they do not need evidence …. they believe also without such and strive for their reunification with God in free will ….

Amen

No human being is fully aware of the significance of earthly life, and no human being knows what he can acquire in this earthly life. The knowledge of it can certainly be conveyed to him, he can also accept it as true and let it take effect on him, but he can never grasp the great spiritual correlations, nor can he foresee the effect of a correctly lived earthly change, because he does not know the radiant strength he once had towards his God and creator and that his final aim is the same bliss again in full possession of light and strength …. As a human being he is too limited in his thinking and could never grasp what was in the beginning and what is to be achieved again. But again and again God tries to expand this still limited thinking, and the human being himself can also do so if he breaks the shackles of his soul, if he begins to dissolve the dense shells around it, which can happen through a life of love, because the latter is already a slow reshaping to the former nature …. thus can also remove all limitations. But as long as the human being lives on earth he will not be able to exceed certain limits, for a person’s love is rarely so overwhelming that it is also able to remove the soul’s last cover already on earth. But once it enters the kingdom of the beyond after the death of the body, then its state can already be very full of light, and then it will also recognize the correlations, and it will know what unheard-of grace earthly life means for every human being …. But this recognition cannot be given to it by God, it must have acquired it itself, which happens through a life of love. And therefore people also don’t know about the significance of a life of love …. They don’t know about it until they lead it themselves, but then their thinking is no longer limited either, it reaches far into God’s plan of creation and salvation, and the soul comes ever closer to God as its father of eternity. Many a soul will feel bitter remorse when it has to realize in the kingdom of the beyond how little it has valued its earthly life, what state it could have reached and how far it has fallen behind due to its own fault. For every soul’s attention is drawn to this, every soul is stimulated in earthly life to work with love, and in various ways it is also given knowledge to which it can adjust itself. But a person may never be influenced by force, and therefore God will not make him unfree in his thinking either. But he could exceed the limits set for him in his earthly form himself. And precisely this is what the soul will have to realize one day, that it would also have been possible for it to acquire light and strength in earthly life …. it will have to realize that only its own will prevented it from being lovingly active, but that it would have been possible to be lovingly active …. For every person has the opportunity to do so, every person is addressed by his fellow human being’s adversity …. but every human being also has free will. And thus this free will is both the impetus for activity in love as well as the reason for refraining from good works. And therefore the human being has to answer for his will or also: The will determines his further fate in eternity. And for the testing of this will the human being was given earthly life, which can bring him unbelievably glorious things but can also put him into an agonizing state …. If only the awareness of responsibility can be awakened in people, if only the significance of earthly life can be presented to them so that they seriously think about it, then the possibility is already given that they will think about themselves and their shortcomings, and the work on their souls can begin, i.e., the human being can endeavour to live in accordance with God’s will …. and this also always means practicing love towards his neighbour …. And the blessing of such an activity of love will not fail to materialize, for the human being will start to think differently, he will be able to explain to himself many things which were previously incomprehensible to him, he will increasingly direct his thoughts into the spiritual kingdom, cover after cover will fall from his soul …. But only love is able to bring about this change in his nature, only love is his soul’s only remedy which, however, works safely and puts the soul into a state that it can now leave earthly life permeable to light …. that it now recognizes itself as God’s creature which once left Him but may return to Him again ….

Amen

There have always been people who handed themselves over to My adversary’s influence as well as those who seriously endeavoured to reach Me and fulfilled their purpose of earthly life …. And there will always be people on earth who strive in either direction as long as earth serves as a place to mature for the spirits. But during the time shortly before the end of a period of salvation the number of those who surrender to My adversary will always predominate, and a far lesser number of people will strive towards Me …. just as, at the start of a new period of development, it will be the other way round …. in fact, at the beginning of such an epoch the earth will only serve as an abode for people who have completely entered into My will and cannot be influenced by My adversary anymore …. And so it is not surprising that My adversary’s raging will also become increasingly more noticeable during the last days before the end, in a manner of speaking, spiritual substances are embodied on earth whose opposition to Me has barely diminished despite the fact that they have taken the infinite long path through the creations. Nevertheless, they have attained a certain degree of maturity which allowed for their human embodiment and therefore the possibility also exists that they can pass their test of will on earth, because, despite My adversary’s greater activity, I Myself also provide exceptional help and take care of the weakened human race. However, in most cases their opposing will shall emerge anew and the adversary’s task to regain them again will be an easy one. But the fact that especially devout people will exist during the last days who will very eagerly strive to attain My kingdom will be proof that it is possible, despite My adversary’s intensified influence, for the people presently embodied on earth have opposed Me for a very long time already, otherwise they would have been permitted to embody themselves before this time …. apart from the individual souls which came to earth for the purpose of a mission in order to help the human race, which is suffering acute spiritual hardship. And therefore it concerns a final separation, the chaff will be separated from the wheat, and prior to this everything will be done to assure a good harvest; all souls will receive help to liberate themselves from the one to whom they have been enchained for eternities already.

However, the final decision is up to them. All people can find out for themselves that the world is governed by a truly satanic spirit, that people are far more taken in by him and willingly comply with his demands. The world is full of devils and the closer it gets to the end, the more it will manifest itself. For wherever a person’s will is weak he slips in and strengthens it, but in a negative sense, so that deeds will be done in this world which can only stem from Satan. And since the number of those enslaved by him will predominate, the battle against the small flock of My Own who aim towards Me and My kingdom, who want to remain faithful to Me and are therefore subjected to these attacks, will also rage extremely severely. And these few will know that the time is coming to an end, that My return can be expected, because the adversity, from which I want to save them as I have promised, will become almost unbearable. People only rarely stand by these promises as well as the prophecies concerning the end. They are no longer able to believe, because they live in a completely different time and everything of a spiritual nature seems unreal to them …. But they would only for once need to seriously think about the events which everyone can experience or observe happening around them, then they would also have to remember the prophecies which indicated this time as well as the consequences …. However, My adversary will have great power in the end …. This, too, has been foretold, and all people can easily recognise that humanity is influenced by Satan, regardless of whether they accept him or call him by another name, but his activity is unmistakable. Yet My activity should also be observed and testify to Me Myself, a Power Which is stronger than the former …. For I, too, reveal Myself to those who distance themselves from the opposing spirit, who are devoted to Me and appeal to Me for strength and help. And I will visibly manifest Myself to them when the day has come that I will separate the goats from the sheep and take them away from this earth in the flesh in order to let them experience My power and glory in accordance with My promise ….

Amen

A right prayer in spirit and in truth will always reach My ear. And you pray correctly when you speak to Me like a child speaks to its father …. when you entrust all your needs to Me or even just send a single call to Me in your adversity …. when you hold intimate dialogue with Me, i.e. believing that I hear you and also expect My answer, that you imagine what your father would answer you …. For as soon as you pray correctly you will also think correctly, always in devotion to Me and My will. But no prayers are of use to you which you have learned, which you can also say without thoughts which can very often only be a form because they are not felt by the heart. And therefore a true prayer can only be said in silence, where all external impressions fall away, where you devote yourselves to Me and speak to Me undisturbed as your heart tells you …. This is why I have told you: “Withdraw into your closet ….” I only want to hear the voice of a child, and I will always open My ear to it and also be exceedingly pleased to hear the requests which the child now expresses. Anyone who is able to pray correctly has thus also established a child’s relationship with the father, which is a prerequisite for reaching the aim on earth: the union with Me, which is the purpose and aim of earthly life. But anyone who only sees God and creator in Me will not be able to speak to Me confidentially either, there will always be a gulf between him and Me which I would like to see bridged and which is why I often let the human being get into such distress that he calls to the father in his distress. Admittedly, the right relationship between child and father also presupposes a living faith, and thus, again, only a loving person will pray correctly because he recognizes Me as his father to Whom he takes refuge in his distress. But you humans don’t know how graciously you are considered by the fact that you may come to Me without hesitation when you are depressed or in dire need. You don’t know how gladly I lean down to you when I hear sounds of love, when you turn to Me and desire help from Me. For you once severed your bond with Me yourselves, but I want it to be restored, which you prove to Me through a right prayer. Anyone who sincerely prays to Me is no longer separated from Me, he acknowledges Me as his God and creator, and he also wants to be like a child to the father, thus he wants to enter into His original relationship. Therefore, a right prayer is already a passed decision of will, and a person who has now established the child’s relationship with the father will also constantly receive the strength from Me to become as he was in the beginning. He will be able to reshape his nature, for every intimate contact with Me, every prayer in spirit and in truth makes it possible for My flow of strength to overflow into him. Thus he will always receive spiritually, even if an earthly request remains unfulfilled for him, because I recognize this as beneficial for his soul. But what he receives spiritually compensates him a thousand fold for what I have to deny him for the sake of his soul …. And thus every prayer is far more about the contact between the human being and Me, for this can only be established by the human being himself, although My love is always willing to approach the human being. And therefore only the prayer sent up in spirit and in truth can be valued or receive blessings, because such alone also guarantees the intimate bond which, however, will be very questionable with formal prayers of any kind …. For then the human being does not use prescribed words but speaks to Me in a most childlike, trusting way. And I gladly listen to him because it makes Me happy to hear the voice of a child which gives itself to Me in love. And a loving child will not only ask Me for earthly things, it will also request spiritual goods because it wants to reach Me and longs for unification with Me in its deepest heart. And its gain will truly be great, for it will be abundantly provided for by My love ….

Amen

Nothing will remain hidden from you if your soul can be completely permeated by My light of love, for then it will be in contact with Me again, and then there will be no more darkness, no more lack of knowledge and no more unresolved questions for it. Then it has become knowledgeable, and it only needs to contemplate in its thoughts what it wants to know in order to also already receive enlightenment through My love. Then the exchange of our thoughts will take place as in the beginning, then the relationship from the child to the father will be established by this soul, and then it will also be allowed to experience the father’s love without limitation and also be blissfully happy without limitation. But this state of a soul is not yet conceivable for you humans, you are still in darkness as long as you have not yet recognized your task on earth, or sparks of light will certainly shine upon you from time to time which already provide you with a small realization …. But only a few have a light within themselves which already shines in a larger radius, thus it has chased away the actual state of darkness. But these souls will feel far happier than the former, for already having a clearer picture of the actual purpose of earthly life also means a certain security for the human being in relation to all fateful experiences. He sees a purpose in everything that goes on around him, and he also sees his own task in the midst of his surroundings. Even if his own life is less favourable, he still has an advantage over his fellow human beings, and therefore he does not find his own situation in life oppressive, for he knows that he is in contact with Me as the power Who can always help him and avert everything that oppresses him. Thus he is never hopeless because a light constantly shines for him which reveals much to him. To go through earthly life without knowledge is always proof that the human being does not yet receive My illumination of love, that he resists it and therefore lives in spiritual darkness. And then it only makes sense to him what is connected with the material world and what he will therefore also strive for without considering that it loses all meaning at the moment of his death. Thus he is blind in spirit, the night of death surrounds him even though he lives on earth, for his soul is dead, it is not touched by My ray of love because the human being excludes all possibility of this. But how grateful the soul would be if it only possessed a small glimmer of light when leaving the body, its bodily shell, at the hour of death. The smallest ray of light would show it the way …. But so it wanders around in darkness, and its fate is pitiful because it will not lose the awareness of its existence but then it will only ever reap what the human being has sown on earth. And thus the soul has prepared the darkness for itself, it did not take care in earthly life to dissolve the covers it is surrounded by and thus to grant My ray of light of love access …. To dissolve these coverings in the beyond is much more difficult, and the soul needs help. And it can often take a long time until it finds its way around its surroundings, until it walks along in a twilight …. until a small realization makes it happy and it now also directs its will according to this realization. With constant striving the light in it will also increase, i.e. My work of love and mercy will become ever more clearly understandable to it and also its own state, it will learn to recognize ever more brightly what its actual task and final aim consists of and strive towards it. But to have already acquired this realization on earth and thus to be able to cross over into the spiritual kingdom in light is the human being’s aim on earth, which everyone could achieve and which makes him unspeakably happy at the hour of death. For then the soul will be over-brightly illuminated and able to overlook and understand everything, every veil will fall before its eyes, and the bliss of constant light penetration will be the fate of those who already begin to dissolve the shells of their souls on earth, which can only happen through unselfish loving activity …. On earth you humans will not experience the spiritual effects of such loving activity, but at the hour of death you will be allowed to experience them, and in a flash you will have spiritual knowledge at your disposal which will also enable you to work in the kingdom of the beyond …. to lead ignorant souls to the light again and to do the same to them as was done to you during your earthly life: to make the hearts receptive for the divine light of love which I constantly let shine upon them so that they will become eternally blissful ….

Amen

You should not be discouraged if you have to overcome resistance in earthly life, for in view of Me you will easily be able to overcome all such resistance, for I will help you. But they have to be so that you will mature, even if you belong to My own and show the serious striving to fulfil My will. Yet you, too, are still afflicted with weaknesses and faults which you will not have much time to overcome …. And My adversary tries his hand at these weaknesses and faults, and you must offer him resistance if you want to mature your souls. Yet don’t fear that you will fail in the battle against him, for I will provide you with strength and he will have to let go of you as soon as he recognizes your bond with Me and his futile effort to win you over for himself. And thus his temptations only contribute towards the perfection of your souls if you have already surrendered your will to Me. He pushes you, as it were unintentionally, into increased spiritual activity, because you, who serve Me on earth, nevertheless take the path to Me in earthly as well as in spiritual adversity and because this bond with Me is also expressed in eager vineyard work, but never as My adversary would like you to turn away from Me. For I keep you and will not release you again for ever …. And I have the right to do so because you turned to Me of your own free will and therefore already belong to Me. But I also have to leave him his right to influence you, for as long as you live on earth as a human being he is entitled to this right which he also truly uses …. which is expressed in all kinds of hardship and distress which shall make you doubt My love, wisdom and might. Yet know that My love for you will not diminish, that My might is unlimited and that My wisdom, too, can guide every event in its effect to benefit your soul if only your will does not resist Me. For the sake of your fellow human beings I cannot completely protect you, who serve Me, from sorrow, suffering and illness, for you should not appear exceptionally gifted, which would nevertheless be a certain compulsion of will for your fellow human beings …. Yet don’t fear that I will deny you My strength, that I will not keep My servants for Me as long as I need them to work in My vineyard. But persevere in full faith in My help and also bear all suffering with patience, then it will only be a blessing for you …. but never bring My adversary the desired triumph. The battle against the truth will become ever fiercer. Again and again you should remind yourselves of this, for the end is approaching, and because only truth can save people from ruin, from the abyss into which My adversary would like to plunge them, he will also fight against truth with all means. And he has many means; he wants to make you unable to do the work for Me and My kingdom himself …. he also wants to prevent you from doing so through opponents of the truth, even if they seemingly stand up for the truth, if they pretend to be My representatives on earth …. My servants will still have to face much from their side, for My adversary uses them in the belief that he will then have greater success. For the pure truth exposes him and his activities, the pure truth gives a true picture of Me and My plan of salvation, and only the pure truth can cause people to look within themselves and strive for a serious change …. And he wants to prevent this with cunning and violence. And therefore you, who receive the pure truth directly from Me, should not be surprised that the attacks on his part will increase and that they can still be expected from him in various ways. But your faithfulness to Me will repel them again and again and secure you My protection and My supply of strength, for I do not leave those who do not leave Me …. I cannot force your will, just as My adversary is not allowed to do so either, but you should muster a strong will which is not meant for the adversary but for Me; you should surrender to Me and always remain united with Me in prayer and loving activity. Then you need never fear that you will succumb, that you will take the wrong path or that you will not be able to carry out your work for Me and My kingdom. For the time is drawing to a close and My servants’ faithful work is still needed for countless souls on earth and also in the kingdom of the beyond ….

Amen

Only pure truth can reach you through the strength of the spirit, for only the spirit, which is part of the eternal deity, knows everything and can impart the knowledge of everything to you. Until you humans make this fundamental truth your own, all your research and brooding will be in vain because you are not certain of the correctness of the results you have gained through research and brooding. And as long as something seems doubtful to you, you cannot speak with conviction of its truth. That is why so much thought work is in vain, and people spend much time and energy which they would use far better if they did works of unselfish love instead of those mental researches. For the man of the world these words are incomprehensible, because he is not able to reconcile emotional and intellectual activity. And yet the activity of the intellect is only blessed by God when the heart is willing to love. For God’s blessing must rest on everything the human being intends to do …. or divine order must first be observed if the human being’s thoughts and actions are to be successful, a success which is valuable in every direction. Error, however, will never have a successful effect, and no human being will want to keep it either if he has recognized it as error. And the recognition of error and lie would also be easy for every person as soon as he lives a life of love. It is all so clearly understandable if the human being would first want to accept the law of divine order, if he would admit that for the time being the human being has to remain in order in order to also be able to recognize everything that corresponds to this divine order. The law of divine order, however, is and remains love …. If this law is overturned, if it is not fulfilled, then all effects must also irrevocably contradict the order. Lies and error, however, exist outside of order, lies and error will always be where people sin against divine order, where people live next to each other without love and no longer understand the meaning of their earthly life. Therefore, if a person wants to attain truth he cannot possibly find it in people who obviously live in opposition to divine order, whose lives therefore do not reveal any divine order according to the fundamental principle of love. For there the spirit from God cannot express itself either. There the ‘portion of God’ is prevented in its working, and the intellect of man cannot replace the spirit from God. How much richer, therefore, is the human being to be called who, through a life of unselfish neighbourly love, is instructed and guided by the divine spirit within himself and who, upon entering the kingdom on the other side, can survey with brightest clarity everything that was still kept hidden from him on earth …. compared to those people who make excessive demands on their intellect and yet will never find their way out of limited thinking if their way of life is led in unkindness …. These will only be surrounded by darkness at the end of their earthly life, for all earthly knowledge is gone and only spiritual knowledge is still of value after the death of the body. But all people carry the divine spiritual spark within themselves, and it would be possible for all people to cause it to be released. But their free will must impel them to move in divine order, i.e., to live in love. For truth is also a sign of divine order, because only the ‘deity’ is to be addressed as ‘eternal truth’ and every truthful explanation must therefore also originate from God, Who imparts it to people through His spirit. God, however, can only speak through His spirit to those people who are already within His circle of love, because those outside cannot hear the voice of the spirit. And people only enter His divine circle of love when they practice love themselves, but without loving activity they also isolate themselves from the one Who is eternal love and also eternal truth …. And no matter how eagerly they use their intellect they will not arrive at the truth, instead, all their research or results of thought deviate from the pure truth, which God only gives to those who want to belong to Him, who make an effort to live in divine order and who therefore also cause the spiritual spark within themselves to express itself and now no longer need to fear falling prey to lies and error …. For God Himself protects them from this by enlightening their spirit, by guiding their thinking correctly so that they are very well able to distinguish truth from error ….

Amen

God’s admonitions will only ever result in a life of love …. Precisely the importance of a life of love is little known to you humans, and yet a life of love is the sole factor which secures your beatitude, an eternal life. And people don’t think of that, and they pay more attention to everything else than their own attitude towards the most important thing in earthly life, love …. They go about their earthly duties day in and day out but they do everything more with their intellect than with their heart …. They consider all pros and cons, they try to work and create advantageously and to carry out earthly work dutifully, but they don’t account for the extent to which the heart is involved, to what extent love is the determining factor in their actions. And yet, every work done without love is useless …. And even the daily work must show a degree of love for the people for whom it is done. Yet only few people are aware of this, and therefore for many their whole life can be an idle one if a slow transformation of the human being has not taken place …. a transformation from self-love to neighbourly love, or also: a reshaping to the former being, which was love. For the most part, every deed is only done for the sake of a certain advantage, but selfless activity of love is rare, and only the latter is of value for the human being’s soul. And people should once give an account of what they have done during the day in complete selfless love …. It will be extremely little, for selfish love is still too predominant or such a state could not exist on earth as it undeniably does. People should also give account to themselves as to what extent they themselves are still capable of love, i.e. how they are touched by their fellow human being’s fate and willing to help him. Every person only thinks of his own fate and tries to improve it if possible, but no one thinks of his fellow human being who is in need. And thus no human being may be self-satisfied if he only fulfils his duty. His spiritual state will always remain on the same level, for only an act of love will improve it, only loving activity will bring spiritual maturity to his soul. Therefore, what use is it to you humans if you also provide yourselves with all the comforts of life, if you dutifully do everything in order to gain such a life of well-being, what use are all your efforts and endeavours in earthly life if they were made without love and you have not progressed one step further in your development at the end of your life if you have only taken care of your earthly well-being? The soul could only recover and mature through works of love, and it is the soul alone which will remain when you have completed your earthly course. The soul can only attain its original form through loving activity, and it is precisely this loving activity which you grossly neglect, you rather add unloving works to it and therefore burden the soul extraordinarily …. And thereby you render your earthly life completely useless, you don’t live according to purpose and will one day feel bitter remorse that you left a gift of grace unused and thereby missed out on a glorious fate in eternity. But you humans are also inaccessible to teachings about the meaning of a life of love …. You have already sunk so low through your selfish love that your spirit is darkened and you no longer recognize the light which shines towards you when the divine teaching of love is brought to you. Love has grown cold amongst people, and this also means that earthly life is useless for the souls, that the purpose of earthly life is misunderstood and that people’s spiritual state has become darkened. And only the one who makes an effort to live a life of love himself also recognizes the disaster which threatens humanity, which lives without any love …. Only he knows that the prince of darkness then also has power over an unloving humanity, that it is in bondage to him and is in his power from which it can only free itself if it uses the weapon of love against him, for he who kindles love in himself will be avoided by the adversary because in his vicinity is God Himself, Who is eternal love and Whom he flees who is devoid of all love ….

Amen

When you have recognised Jesus’ exalted spiritual mission then you will also understand why the divine Saviour must constantly be mentioned, because an ascent into the light is only possible when the human being has been released from his original sin. People are not aware of this original sin, consequently they do not know the meaning of the act of Salvation either …. They cannot find the connection between the crucifixion of Jesus the human being, in Whom they might perhaps believe, and the beatification of people …. And many people reject Him because they were merely told of this act of Salvation but it was not truthfully explained to them. And yet, such an explanation can only be given to those who sincerely want clarification, and there will only ever be few people who want this. Because even the most lucid explanations are incomprehensible to people who do not glance into the spiritual kingdom, who only acknowledge the physical world and anything that can be seen and proven to them. But the mission of Jesus the human being was not an entirely earthly issue, although it took place in full view of people ….

It had a profound spiritual reason and as long as people are not aware of this they cannot face the divine Saviour Jesus Christ as guilty brothers who burden Him with their guilt, who ask Him for redemption. And yet this request has to precede their salvation, consequently they have to know about their guilt of sin, about the immense offence against God which had led them into sin and which could not be redeemed except through the great sacrifice of compensation by the human being Jesus. Hence, as long as people do not feel that they are sinful they will not take the path to Him, to the cross, with their guilt. And until then they will not acknowledge the divine Saviour Jesus Christ either. Only the knowledge of their original beginning, of their former nature, and of their resistance to God, can give them the understanding for the achievement of Salvation by Jesus, Who had lived in such a way as a human being that He could receive God Himself within Him. Thus the act of Salvation was accomplished by Eternal Love, Who wanted to liberate Its living creations from the constraints of Its opponent.

This description will make Jesus’ mission more plausible to people than merely talking about the sins they have committed during their lifetime and which often appear too small to justify such an achievement of Salvation in order to redeem these sins. Of course every sin is an offence against love, thus an offence against God …. but the original sin of the former apostasy from God was so immense that the beings themselves could not have redeemed it in an eternity. It is not possible for you humans to understand this …. But a huge sin like that also necessitates a huge expiation, which was indeed achieved by a ‘human being’ but only because this human being incorporated God within Himself, thus the strength of God had enabled Him to do so, but this strength was only ‘love’ …. God’s fundamental substance ….

As originally created beings people had once rejected God’s strength of love and thus were entirely without strength ….

However, the man Jesus consciously accepted God’s strength of love and used it to accomplish an act of mercy for His fallen brothers …. to make

Amends for their guilt. Nor do people know that their existence as a human being on this earth is the result of this original sin and that they will indeed return to their original state again one day, but not without acknowledging the One, Whose immense love had redeemed them. Because their apostasy from God was a deliberate ‘turning away from Him’ which necessitates a deliberate ‘turning towards Him again’ in order to establish their original relationship with God once more. It is a tremendous blessing that this knowledge is given to people, which everyone should make use of simply by considering it and by accepting as truth that which has been imparted to him. Then he need only turn to the ‘Jesus the human being’ and speak to Him in thought …. And He will reply to him as ‘God’, He will help him to recognise his guilt correctly and take it from Him, if he admits to it and requests His help ….

And every single human being can become aware of the fact that he must have done something wrong at some time, if only he considers that he is an imperfect, weak and ignorant being and seeks to discover its cause. For no such inner question remains unanswered, it merely has to be asked, but most people refrain from doing so, yet callously spurn any mention of the divine Saviour as well as His great spiritual mission when they are made aware of it. But time and again God will proclaim the divine Saviour Jesus Christ to humanity, and all His servants working for Him on earth will constantly preach His name and His Gospel with ever growing enthusiasm, so that all will be released from their guilt who listen and enter into sincere contact with Jesus Christ, in Whom God Himself had become human in order to redeem what is constrained by His adversary ….

Amen

No human being is forced to believe but everyone has to acquire it himself. Therefore, even if spiritual teachings are presented to the human being he cannot be compelled to believe in them, because such faith would only mean lack of contradiction, thus the human being would not openly express himself against them but he would still not need to be inwardly convinced of them. Such people therefore cannot be called ‘believers’ as long as they have not yet gained the inner conviction of the truth of what is demanded to be believed. And such faith is worthless before God …. For neither the intellect nor the heart affirmatively puts itself to it. However, the intellect alone cannot acquire this conviction because it cannot produce any evidence for the truth of the spiritual teachings. But the heart can attain conviction …. but only through the working of love. And the human being, in turn, cannot be forced into love because love is completely free. Love is the only means of attaining a living faith, an inner conviction without proof. This is an incontrovertible truth which cannot be refuted but will never be acknowledged by unloving people. For it is precisely only confirmed through love: And thus it is also understandable why precisely doctrines of faith are repeatedly disputed, why humanity has completely different opinions in the spiritual sphere and why unity can only be recorded where people live a life of love …. but why the latter also hold their views with full conviction, for they have gained the right, living faith through love. And thus spiritual knowledge could certainly be conveyed to people but it will not be able to become a conviction in them until the spirit in them is awakened through a life of love. And therefore it is the first and most urgent thing if people are to be helped to attain faith, to preach love to them and to stimulate them to be active in love. However, as long as these efforts are unsuccessful people will not be able to believe in everything else which has its origin in God and should lead to God again. So it can be said quite simply: Without love no one will reach God. Only one thing is necessary for man: to kindle love in himself. But all indications of this are ignored, only a few take it seriously and try to shape themselves into love, only a few subject their nature and their way of acting to serious criticism and try to change. And that is why only a few people reach the aim. To be able to believe wholeheartedly is blissful, but it is not to be understood as blind faith which has not been preceded by a serious examination of the doctrines of faith …. which can also be held by a person who has little love …. the faith which should rather be called ‘fanaticism’ than ‘faith’. Love always remains the foundation of faith, and a faith without love collapses as soon as it is to prove itself …. But one day people will be called upon to prove themselves, and then only a few will persevere, only a few people will have this conviction which only a life of love can give and which is therefore called the strength of faith which stands firm in the most difficult tribulations in the last days before the end. Only then will it be proven who is truly faithful …. but the blind believer will fail. He lacks the strength which only love can bring him …. He lacks inner conviction and will therefore unhesitatingly surrender faith because he did not possess it in reality ….

Amen

No matter how your earthly lives shape themselves, they are determined by My will in order to give you ever more opportunities for your souls to mature. But you will only become psychologically fully mature if you faithfully accept My will, if you humbly bow down and completely subordinate yourselves to Me …. Then you will also experience My obvious help in every earthly and spiritual adversity. The aim of life is the spiritualisation of your soul, the purging of all impurities which still cling to you, so that it can be completely permeated by My divine light of love when it leaves its earthly body. This purification, however, will not take place if the human being’s earthly existence passes by without any struggle …. unless the person lives an exceptionally loving life. Then the layers will disintegrate and the soul will have achieved its goal at the end of its life.

But often it will still have to accomplish this process of purification through suffering and adversities, through personal struggle. And since My wisdom knows this, My love always takes care to help it to mature. Consequently, you will not be able to live your earthly lives in constant calm, storms will rage around you, and often enough you will be despondent as a result of your fate …. And yet you need not be afraid, you will be able to overcome everything by merely joining Me even more firmly the harsher you are affected by fate.

I Am mindful of everything and you are never alone, even if you are earthly entirely on your own, even if you believe that you have been abandoned by all people …. I will truly never leave you, and to be united with Me compensates you a thousand fold for the loss you suffer or have suffered. But you also always have to recognise Me Myself in every happening that comes your way. If I Am your first and last thought you will be strong, no matter what happens to you.

But if you distance yourselves from Me by complaining and grumbling and rebelling against your fate, then you will also get steadily weaker and the adversity will burden you ever more …. because then there is no other available means for Me to win you back, to make you bow down to My will again …. I truly only have your best interests at heart, and nothing will happen to you without My will or My permission. But in constant contact with Me it will be easier for you to carry your burden …. And then everything that at first looked like an inextricable tangle will be beautifully resolved. And the soul will have achieved a great benefit if, during the greatest difficulties, it has not severed its bond with Me.

Especially in these last days before the end people are at great risk of forgetting about Me in their hunt and rush for worldly goods …. And if I want them to remember Me again then I can only employ such means which will shake their very way of thinking, by using hard blows of fate I have to put them into a situation of wit’s end, so that they then will remember the One, Who alone is able to help them. For their souls are still wrapped in dense layers, they have not yet done much to purify their souls, that is, they neglect to do unselfish deeds of love, and a different process of purification is therefore necessary to make the soul transparent enough for just a little bit of light, for which it will be extremely grateful to Me one day ….

And no person is exempt from experiencing misfortunes, because I love all human beings and want to help them find their way back to Me one day if they are still distant from Me, or to encourage a closer unity with Me whereby they can receive increasingly more strength to improve their souls and to achieve full maturity while still on earth. For I want them to pass over with a degree of light already, so that they will be spared the agony of darkness in the kingdom of the beyond; I want that their earthly progress should not have been in vain …. And for this reason you humans should only ever see My will or My permission in everything that happens to you and humbly submit yourselves to My will ….

Amen

You were created for eternity …. Thus you cannot ever cease to exist even though you had a beginning. But you were able to change your nature and so you did and as a result temporarily deprived yourselves of self-awareness. You certainly continued to exist but you were no longer conscious of your existence. Nevertheless, it was not a state of happiness, it was no blissful passing away into a void but a state of torment because it signified restriction for the spiritual being that once was created as a free being, which also experienced this restriction as agony. But since you will continue to exist forever you should also be able to enjoy your existence, you should live in a blissful state, that is, you should be active for your own pleasure in strength and light. That is your goal, the goal of every being which once was created by Me is to live and be active in My will, to be blissfully happy in full light and strength like Me and able to create and shape for its own pleasure. Yet countless beings I emanated in light and freedom lost their self-awareness due to their own fault. They relinquished their freedom, light and strength and chose a dreadful fate for themselves …. But they were unable to destroy themselves and will never be able to do so either. Were this voluntarily chosen state without self-awareness devoid of all agony, no being would ever strive for a life in beatitude, for then it would, to a certain extent, have perished and only be recognised as a being by Myself. However, the agonies of a banished being are inconceivable, and you humans should not remain indifferent to the threat of a renewed banishment, for even if you lack self-awareness you will nevertheless be exposed to agonies which you will be able to comprehend one day in retrospect when you have entered into life. For it is the spiritual essence which suffers, not the human being whom you deem to have passed away. And the spiritual essence can certainly have hardened in itself but it is not obliterated, it is not insensitive and suffers extreme pain even in its tiniest substance, therefore the whole of Creation …. the spiritual substance bound in matter …. in contrast to the kingdom of light and its inhabitants …. is ‘unredeemed’ or ‘unhappy’, i.e. bound in pain, and in its pain it yearns for redemption.

The pain experienced by the spiritual substance is incomprehensible to you humans because that which was given to your soul as a covering …. your earthly body …. is only able to feel and endure pain up to a certain degree which, however, is no comparison to the agonies the soul has to endure in its unredeemed state and which are also felt by the still bound spiritual substances of the external shell. But since only the soul is a self-aware being it can therefore only in the state of a human being consciously aspire towards a change of its nature, a transformation into its fundamental nature. The realisation that it can never perish, that it will exist forever, will then also motivate it to seriously aspire towards a happy eternal life, to strive towards a ‘life in beatitude’ and to gain strength and light again in order to be active in accordance with the law of divine order. But as long as it lacks this realisation the human being’s life on earth will be to no avail and the soul will remain bound and will also leave its body in a bound state …. And then the agonising state emerges again which it did not feel as much on earth. It is dead even though it exists …. It did not acquire the blissful life on earth, the state of banishment is also threatening it again if it does not succeed in coming to the realisation in the kingdom of the beyond that it has not and cannot cease to exist although it no longer lives on earth …. Only this realisation can prompt it in the kingdom of the beyond to strive towards ‘life’ after all, and then it will also receive help to do so. But it is dreadful for an already self-aware soul if it has to experience the fate of a new banishment again …. if its self-awareness is taken away and it has to take the path through the creations dissolved in countless tiny particles and to endure the agonies again, which every external shell represents for the spiritual being. For only by means of pain can the spiritual being become so purified that it will mature into a self-aware being again which shall live one day and will then never ever lose its life again ….

Amen

It is an essential factor in earthly life that you are aware of the task you have to accomplish as a human being. You should always be told that life itself is by no means important, that it is therefore not a matter of the body carrying out all its functions and being in good health, but that it is merely a matter of the soul inhabiting the body and that all bodily abilities should be used for the soul’s benefit, that it finds its way out of its pitiful state and reaches the aim which is set for the spiritual. The soul can even mature far more quickly in a sick body, providing the human being takes his earthly task seriously. And if the human being only ever regards his body as the vessel which the soul needs for its further development, and if he therefore only tries to maintain this vessel, to care for it and make it resistant, then he will also live his life consciously, and then he need not fear that his body will fail before the soul has reached its possible maturity …. On the other hand, it is different with people who have no sense of responsibility towards their soul …. They can be in unusually good physical health and unexpectedly lose their life because they don’t think about their soul and therefore have no further development to report, so that existence on this earth is completely without meaning and purpose and the soul is therefore deprived of its outer shell so that it still has the opportunity to ascend in the kingdom of the beyond. The health of the body is such a great gift of grace that it should also be utilized, but not in an earthly material sense but for the salvation of the soul …. But a sick body is likewise a grace for the human being who does not close himself off to God’s influx of grace …. for it is, as it were, a barrier set by God against the world …. Overcoming the world is made easy for the human being and great help is given to the soul. Yet the human being must consciously submit to God’s will and also regard his body’s decrepitude as a gift of grace, because ultimately it is not the physical life but the life of the soul which is the purpose of the human being’s life on earth. And therefore only the soul of this human being who knows about his actual task and wants to fulfil it will mature …. For God will help him in every way to progress his soul, and this often also includes states of adversity or physical suffering which, however, must then be regarded as a means of purification but not as a punishment or an obstacle to reaching the aim. And the hour is predetermined for every person when he departs from this earth …. because God has known about every individual person’s will since eternity and He also knows what a soul can still achieve on earth and in which way it is more at risk …. so that a sudden recall in the midst of life must also still be regarded as grace. Anyone who only regards earthly life as an end in itself will also not be able to understand that a God and creator allows human lives to be destroyed whose natural hour of death is not yet to be expected …. But He knows about every human being’s willingness to acquire life for the soul. And He also knows what is advantageous for each individual soul. The human being only needs to have the knowledge and faith in his earthly task, then his soul’s greatest adversity will be remedied, for then the human being will also endeavour to help it to live. But the world is the soul’s greatest enemy …. And it is a special grace of God when He tries to protect the soul from the world, when He creates obstacles for the human being to pay homage to it …. So then we can also speak of a ‘blessing of sickness’, which is such an obstacle for many a person who wants to live according to God’s will and is often still weak to resist the temptations which threaten him on the part of the world. For God is love, and love always helps the weak so that it will not be endangered …. But people often misjudge God’s love, yet anyone who strives towards Him can also know that he is safe in His love …. he can trust Him that everything God lets come over a person is good ….

Amen

The price you pay for a joyful, pleasurable earthly existence is too high, for in return you sell your soul to the one who pulls it back down into the abyss. It is only an exceedingly short time during which you can indulge in the pleasures of the world, but eternity is infinitely long, the time is infinitely long when you dwell in darkness again in unspeakable torment. But you overestimate this short time on earth and thoughtlessly give away an eternal life in glory for truly worthless things …. You don’t know what you are doing and don’t listen to the serious warnings and admonitions which are constantly sent to you, so that you will lead your way of life responsibly, so that you will remember the time after your physical death when you will receive the delicious reward if you take all warnings and admonitions to heart and only try to improve the state of your soul. My adversary knows how to lure you with the charms of the world and you don’t see through his game that he tries to win your soul with it, which only needs to get rid of the last shackle in order to be able to enter the kingdom of light, My kingdom, where it will be blissfully happy again in light and strength as it once was …. And neither the bliss in the kingdom of light nor the torments of the abyss can be shown to you, for you have to return to Me again in complete free will …. just as he cannot force you to follow his enticements and lose your soul to him either. But I truly do everything to draw your attention to the horrors of the abyss which you will inevitably face if you are unable to separate yourselves from the world and its goods. And you will also be told about the beatitudes in the spiritual kingdom which await you if you live according to My will, if you strive to attain spiritual goods and put the world aside …. The fact that you don’t believe in it is the result of your way of life, for you completely forget about your neighbour who is in need because of your desire for the world and earthly goods. If you would willingly turn your help to him then everything would also seem more credible to you which is held up to you by My servants who, in view of the end, step into the path of all people once in order to proclaim the gospel to them. But the increased greed for the world and its pleasures dulls you, and every warmer feeling in your heart is stifled, for My adversary, who knows that love snatches souls away from him, takes care of this, that he will certainly lose them if only the human being kindles love within himself. However, the human being’s desire for earthly possessions makes him insensitive to his neighbour’s hardship; his selfish love becomes ever stronger and he only seeks to gain everything for himself, and it hardens his soul, the shells become ever tighter and My adversary has won the game …. He has only paid a small price for the soul: a physical comfort for a very short time which has already come to an end with the death of the body and …. can already be over on the morrow. Why do you humans not even seriously consider your situation, the certain end of your life on this earth, which you yourselves cannot determine in terms of time …. why do you attach such great value to earthly goods and the pleasures of the world? And carelessly you give away the indescribable bliss of the spiritual kingdom for the sake of these short, worthless pleasures. Earthly life is a test for you humans, it is the last time of free decision for Me or for My adversary. And he will offer you everything in order to win you over for himself …. but I, too, will let grace upon grace flow to you, yet I will not exert any coercion of will upon you. Yet it is not impossible for you to make the right decision, for you are constantly informed and you can also recognize the transience of earthly things on a daily basis, you experience the sudden recall of fellow human beings from their lives on a daily basis …. you can think about everything …. Thus you will one day also have to bear the consequences of your decision if it is not for Me, and you will be allowed to enjoy indescribable bliss if you renounce your short earthly lifetime in order to gain Me and My kingdom for eternity ….

Amen

Only perfection came forth from Me …. for profound love and supreme wisdom created everything and nothing was impossible for My power. Hence I was also able to externalise beings of supreme perfection which, as My images, were very pleasing to Me. They were created as miniatures of Myself and it made Me extremely happy to allow these creations of Mine to create and work in an abundance of light and strength in order to also bestow upon them the same pleasure of finding happiness in their created works. All beings were therefore permeated by the necessary creative strength which enabled them to be likewise creatively active. However, they were more or less only the ‘implementers of My will’, since with the strength of love flowing to them the beings were also imbued by My will, thus they would only ever have remained My ‘creatures’ had I not externalised them as completely free beings, with free will, which they were able to display in any direction. Only this made them supremely perfect, but it also enabled them to lose their perfection …. As long as they were governed by My will they would never have lost their state of perfection, free will, however, provided them with this opportunity, just as, on the other hand, it also enabled the complete deification of the ‘created’ beings …. so that they, like children, were able to partake in My activity and creating of their own free will and yet with Me and in absolute accord with My will. Then the highest goal will have been reached which I had intended when I created beings in My love and My power …. For then the being can no longer lose its perfection and can be described as infinitely happy. But it would have been possible for every being, as there was no reason to turn away from Me when it was able to make use of its free will. It was perfect and only needed to use its will to remain in this perfection …. The explanation that it became imperfect and fell was due to its awareness of strength and light, for it wanted to prove that it was full of light and strength. And thus it misjudged My love, which bestowed everything entirely selflessly upon the being in order to make it happy. Just a single arrogant thought was enough to cloud the light of realisation and this was followed by increasingly more wrong thoughts, which turned its will in the wrong direction because it was free.

It is difficult to make you humans understand how it is possible for a perfect being to fall in the first place …. because perfection always signifies light as well, i.e. complete realisation …. But precisely the awareness of its abundant strength made the being consider the strength within itself more than the light, and the abundance of strength made it easy for it to become arrogant, which instantly clouded the light. Like Myself the being was constantly able to externalise new creations and it began to displace Me, the primary source of strength …. It no longer wanted to acknowledge its relationship of dependency on Me and once it had embraced this thought it also lost track of the dreadful consequences resulting from its direction of will. However, a free being externalised by Me must also have the freedom to be able to change its nature …. for perfections should not denote a state of compulsion for the being, otherwise it truly couldn’t be called to be in My image. But the being will indeed always keep this freedom of self-transformation; consequently, from its freely chosen and created state of imperfection it can also attain supreme perfection again and thereby reach My intended goal that it becomes and remains My child. I would never have been able to create such ‘children’ for Myself because the divine characteristic of free will has to become active by itself …. so that that the living creation in its perfection as granted by Me was able to want to remain in it voluntarily or …. if it failed this test of will …. had to acquire the degree of perfection again which it once forfeited of its own free will …. Anyone who can grasp this enigma will also understand My eternal plan of Salvation and he will know that only infinite love and wisdom was able to devise such a plan, because I want to prepare a fate for My created beings which signifies supreme happiness forever …. And My love, wisdom and might will pursue this goal until it is reached, until all spiritual beings having emerged from Me can create and work by My side in supreme beatitude, as intended by My plan of eternity ….

Amen

I will never place a barrier in your knowledge, for this is your aim, to regain the light of realization which you once possessed and voluntarily gave away. But I Myself cannot give you the light, you must acquire it again yourselves and I will never place the slightest obstacle in your way. The full recognition of Myself and the voluntary union with Me remove all barriers which still exist as long as you are distant from Me and which therefore also signify lightlessness. But once the union with Me has been restored, this cannot result in anything other than that you dwell in My circle of light, that you yourselves are therefore also permeated by light …. And light is knowledge …. Only one thing is necessary, that you are so intimately united with Me again in order to be able to receive My emanation of light and love. But as long as you live on this earth as a human being you lack the right belief that you can enter into such an intimate union with Me that you, as it were, merge with My spirit of love …. And because you are not able to believe this with conviction, the barriers still exist and your knowledge remains limited. But you can let your faith grow ever stronger through your will and through a life of love. No other advice can be given to you than to always practice love so that you thereby cause Me Myself to unite with you …. As God I appear too distant to you; but if you know that I am love then you also know that I must be with you in every work of love which you unselfishly carry out. And thus you have a certain guarantee that you will be able to make contact with Me, for it is possible for all of you to practice love, for all of you can do good works without self-interest …. And you will also soon be able to convince yourselves that your knowledge will then also expand, that it has to become light in you, because I Myself am the light which then enlightens your hearts, because My presence also expresses itself in such a way that the darkness is chased away and that a peace enters your hearts which is always the sign of divine unity. You shall regain your former fullness of light and strength because it alone also guarantees you bliss. And because I want this, because it is My aim that you will be blissfully happy without limitation, help will always be given to you from Me but I will never prevent you from reaching your aim. And if you come to Me in believing prayer and ask Me to smooth the paths for you which lead into the kingdom of light, then you can also be certain that your earthly course will be shaped such that you will reach the aim. But I cannot impart knowledge to you humans against your will, i.e. give you light. Yet I can always admonish you to love, and you should comply with My admonitions and then tear down all barriers yourselves which separate you from Me and thus also from the light. It has been a long way, for the deepest depths held you captive, death and night surrounded you and the distance from Me was immeasurable …. And you have already come considerably closer to Me, only a short distance still separates us, and you must now still try to overcome this in earthly life. You are no longer in deepest darkness, a small light shines for all of you because I Myself have placed a tiny spark of light in you so that you shall find the path to Me, back to your former state of bliss …. But you should let this light of love become a bright flame yourselves, and the distance between us will become smaller and smaller, you will come closer and closer to Me, because this flame of love constantly flares up towards Me and because it forces the original light from eternity to unite with this flame …. And only your love achieves this, that you intimately unite with Me again, as it was in the beginning …. that you radiate in light and strength again, because you now constantly accept these from Me again and no longer oppose Me. This is your aim, which you can all achieve as long as you stay on earth if only you constantly work in love …. For love and I are one, and thus I Myself must be in every person who lives in love, and where I Myself am there is light and strength and bliss ….

Amen

Your ways are not always My ways …. You often don’t know the goal when you start a journey but I know where your way is leading to and often gently push you into a different direction. And if you give in to My urging you will also safely reach the right goal. But often your resistance is too great, your own will is stronger, and you take no notice of the gentle urges which originate from Me. Then I will have to let you go because I won’t forcibly break your will. And then you will be in danger of losing the connection with Me, because it will not yet be tied firm enough and you will not have yet completely submitted yourselves to My guidance.

But you should not be surprised that your plans will often get shattered, that your intentions won’t succeed, that the way you take will become difficult for you. All these are gentle indications that it is not the right way, and even then you could still stop short and diverge from this path and get onto the right track that promises greater success …. not in the earthly-material sense but which guarantees you spiritual success. My guidance is only guaranteed if your thoughts aim into My direction, and then you will also realise that every way was right, that you made progress even if you, at first, resisted taking these ways. But if you are purely earthly-minded you will surely walk into the wrong direction and should only ever be grateful if you are clearly prevented from continuing on this path. Yet the more worldly-minded a person is, the more eagerly he will try to overcome obstacles, he often pulls down all barriers, that is, he doesn’t question whether what he does is right, and only tries to reach his goal which, however, is only a worldly directed one. And I must let such people have their own way, for their will is still too firmly focussed on My adversary to bow down to My will. But you humans will attain far greater benefits if you entrust yourselves to My leadership and then always let yourselves be guided without inner resistance ….

A father has an overview of where his child is going and what dangers lie in wait for it and, in his love, tries to guide the child onto a path which is safe to take and will lead to the right goal. And like a good father I, too, Am concerned for every individual person’s destiny and want his earthly path to become a blessing for him. But the human being often turns his attention into the wrong direction in the hope of finding something there which, however, will be detrimental for him. Although he retains his free will, his earthly way of life can nevertheless be directed by providence other than by that which he wishes for and wants, yet always for the benefit of his soul. Still, as long as the person complains and inwardly rebels against his destiny, this blessing will be small. Only when he surrenders in the realisation that it is determined by a higher will and that it is wrong to fight against it will he achieve a benefit for his soul. And the human being will often be able to observe such fated interventions by Me which should always make him think ….

There is only One Who determines the human being’s course of life, and he should learn to recognise His ways as good and right, he should always humbly bow down to his fate and know that a loving father is concerned for His child’s well-being and that everything, even what is apparently unfavourable, is a blessing for the person if he does not offer resistance, if he lets himself be guided and also accepts events which the Father recognises to be right for His child and thus applies. And he should yield to every inner impulse urging him to act differently, for such inner stirrings are always My gentle voice by which I attract and call the child onto a different way, onto the way which will truly bear results and lead to the goal, to the right goal, to the purpose of his earthly life.

The human being’s will often differs from My will, and thus his ways are not always My ways either …. But he will always have My love, and this only wants to save him, it wants to win him over for itself, and therefore it will also always guide the person such as is good for him, yet even My love will not force his will, for this is and remains free, because the human being shall completely freely decide in favour of his eternal Father ….

Amen

No-one is capable of helping his soul to freedom on his own if he does not experience My support, if the strength of the spirit does not flow through him, if the spiritual spark in him, which is My share, does not instruct him from within and influence his thinking to turn to Me in Jesus Christ again and again, so that he, as it were, frees himself with Me from the one who has held him in bondage for eternities. This liberation is possible through the act of salvation which I Myself accomplished for you humans in the man Jesus. And now only your own will is required to release yourselves from My adversary …. But then you will also certainly attain freedom. And thus the strength of the slumbering spirit within you is not to be underestimated …. You have to awaken it to life, but then it will guide you and direct your thoughts to Me in Jesus Christ, for I have placed a tiny spark of My spirit of love in you for this purpose, so that the work of salvation will succeed, so that My suffering and death on the cross will not have been in vain for the individual person. And a single work of love already awakens the spirit in you, and it will express itself by stimulating you into continued activity of love …. And then you must also noticeably feel the ‘strength of the spirit’ which constantly pushes you towards Me. You must succeed in releasing yourselves from My adversary’s power if you only use the strength of the spirit, because then you will approach Me Myself for strength, which I truly will not deny you. And every bond with Me, be it through prayer or also through actions of love, will always earn you an influx of strength from Me, and your thoughts will constantly dwell more on Me and your striving upwards will be obvious. The strength of the spirit is accessible to all of you, for you all have this spark of love from Me within you and you all need only want it to ignite …. you need only offer no resistance when it wants to express itself to you, that is, you should pay attention to every subtle stirring of your heart and comply with it, for it will always stimulate you into loving activity …. If you comply with these suggestions the strength of the spirit will unfold more and more, you will have light thoughts and also understanding for many events which are incomprehensible to other people …. You will also feel an increased urge in you to bond with the spiritual kingdom, i.e., worldly desire will be pushed back and spiritual desire will be more prominent, you will always be accessible to spiritual conversations and often have to direct your thoughts upwards, towards Me, because the spiritual spark in you will push towards Me, towards the father-spirit of eternity …. I therefore draw you through My spirit, for alone you are unable to do anything …. But the fact that you want and carry out your will was brought about by Jesus’ work of redemption …. For through His death on the cross He first acquired for you humans the strengthened will, He acquired for you blessings without number, all of which help you in your weakness to defend yourselves against My adversary, because without help you would be too weak to resist. And the redemption through Jesus Christ also has the effect that the spirit in the human being can set itself free more easily, that only the slightest will to love already allows it to be active and that it can express itself the more obviously the more you join Jesus Christ, the more vividly you confess Him and acknowledge His act of salvation. Then you can also be regarded as redeemed, for the strength of My spirit will now work in you and you will be active again with light and strength for the benefit of your fellow human beings who are still without light and without strength. Thus I Myself in Jesus Christ must always help you to become free, otherwise you would never be able to get away from your tormentor because you are unable to resist him as long as you are still his portion, thus you cannot yet direct your will towards the divine redeemer Who may only take you away from him when you consciously turn to Him for help. But the small spiritual spark in you, the part of Myself, will urge you to do so as soon as you only allow it to work. It will appeal to you through the heart and urge you to perform works of love …. And therefore each one of you can also become free, but no compulsion will be exerted on the human being, not even by My spark of love …. But I am always ready to help, because My love for the weak, unredeemed will not cease and will one day also win this for itself ….

Amen

You still have much work to do for Me and My kingdom, for the time still lies ahead of you when your work will only really begin because the earthly adversity will be very great and then people will also be more receptive to My word which you shall bring to them. But before that much small work has to be done, which consists of still calling workers for My vineyard into service, of first instructing them themselves in order to then also be able to be successfully active as My servants. For this service has to be voluntarily rendered for Me, and therefore I address people through you so that those who recognize the father’s voice voluntarily offer themselves to Me for help, and then I can also give them a light and make them suitable for the coming task. The world still emerges and therefore there are few who look into the spiritual kingdom …. But the earthly world will suffer a severe blow and so will the people who pay homage to it ….. Much will change in a short time, and this change will nevertheless make some people think, and they will also have an open ear for My servants’ speeches, for they will find explanations for otherwise incomprehensible events. And then their actual mission will also begin at this time, for which I have trained you and am still training you, because then you shall also give your fellow human beings the right comfort and advice which will benefit their souls. People are blind in spirit because they only think of their own well-being and have no eye for their fellow human being’s adversity …. But when the general adversity will start through My will, through a natural event of the most momentous kind, then some people will also let themselves be softened and be willing to help, and I will also give them the opportunity to be able to help. And these will also receive a clear light which will shine all the brighter the more they are lovingly active. And much new ground will be opened up, fallow fields will be cultivated and sown with good seed. And this is the last time of work in My vineyard, the last sowing, which shall still bring forth abundant fruit, but for which I also still need many willing and faithful servants, because very little time remains for the last harvest work before the end. Therefore you should not grow tired and weary and not believe that your work is in vain because you now see little success …. The tiniest seeds you scatter can still take root and sprout because I Myself create the necessary atmosphere …. through a very painful intervention but which can still be a blessing for many souls. And even if people believe that they are approaching a calm and peaceful time, it is only an illusion and overnight the calm will change into turmoil and chaos of an unimaginable kind. For I know the day and the hour but you don’t, and only the hint shall suffice that you don’t have much time left and therefore have to make good use of the short time. No human being needs to be unprepared, for every person will receive warnings and admonitions but only a few will accept them as credible and adjust their lives so that they can also be suddenly recalled from this earth. A time of adversity will befall the earth which could truly shake everyone’s thinking but which will nevertheless leave many people’s hearts untouched who are completely under My adversary’s control and therefore will do everything in their power to reduce their own state of adversity and do so at the expense of their fellow human beings again, because My adversary impels them into increased unkindness …. And precisely then you, My servants on earth, must step forward and counter My adversary by only ever pointing out to people that they themselves will be helped to the same extent as they are willing to help, and that everyone should help his neighbour if the great adversity is to be alleviated and My visible help is to be given to everyone. You shall also try to justify My intervention to them, and you will also be understood because I Myself address people through you and everyone who is not entirely in My adversary’s hands will also recognize My voice and feel touched by it. There is still much work ahead of you but you will be able to accomplish it with My help and My blessing as soon as you are only willing to serve Me and help your fellow human beings as long as there is still a possibility of rescue ….

Amen

Far beyond shines the ray of My divine light of love. And again and again I kindle new lights so that the darkness is chased away, so that people can recognize the paths they walk, so that they also find the right path which leads upwards. In the night they go astray, without light they are helpless, and the dimmest glimmer of light is already a joy to them, provided that they do not seek to conceal themselves, that they therefore use the darkness in order to remain unrecognized …. These shun the light, for they are still under the power of My adversary, the prince of darkness. But anyone who sees a little light flashing with joy will also come into the blessing of this light, and he will now be able to safely continue his path, after all, he can also recognize the aim he is now heading towards. And thus I continue to let My light of love shine down to earth which, as a dark area, exposes its inhabitants to the danger of being devoured by darkness. I convey My word to people, My direct emanation of love, which brings brightness to all who are of good will …. To be able to receive the divine light of love irrefutably means to have stepped out of the darkness of night into the light of day. At first only a faint twilight will make the path recognizable but the light will shine ever brighter, for the sun of the spirit will rise and send its rays far out so that every person who wants to escape the night can enter its circle of rays. And all little lights emanate from the eternal light of love, for where a glow is spread there the light from Me also shines. My adversary will likewise let shining lights shine, but these will not spread a glow which makes all things recognizable …. They will only dazzle the eye, and such a dazzled eye will only barely recognize the gentle light from Me, for it delights more in the dazzling light and keeps looking towards it, and its eye becomes fainter and fainter until it finally remains completely in darkness. The gentle light, however, which shines upon you in the form of My word illuminates your inner being and makes you unspeakably happy because you are also able to recognize Me Myself in this light, because you see an image which had disappeared from you …. because you regain the knowledge which you lost eternally ago …. It becomes light in you, for My word proclaims My love to you, and My love also kindles love in you again, and the divine light of love spreads within you and urges eternal unification with the original light of eternity. You would all be completely without realization during your earthly existence if My word were not conveyed to you, which again and again radiates My love into infinity …. Without this word the darkness in you would never come to an end, for you would forever walk in the night on wrong paths. But you will receive light through My word as soon as you live out My word, thus do what is My will and what is proclaimed to you through My word. And where My will is fulfilled it will also become increasingly brighter, because people themselves enter My ray of light of love through the fulfilment of My will, because they open themselves ever more to My illumination of love and only think back with a shudder to the night they escaped from …. (18.12.1957) And then I will also no longer let you sink back into darkness, My love will protect you from this. Only if you consciously …. despite better knowledge …. hand yourselves over to My adversary again, thus if you consciously ‘sin against the spirit’, your fate will be all the more dreadful, for then your rebelliousness will be a sin of such great significance, then you will burden yourselves with such a grave sin that you will have to atone for this sin for eternities again, because then you will also consciously reject the divine redeemer Jesus Christ and you may not hope for forgiveness of sin. But anyone who has once gained realization rarely leaves the light which My love radiates over him …. Anyone who has once recognized and lived out My word flees from My adversary and also rarely only allows himself to be beguiled by him …. And therefore the ‘sin against the spirit’ is certainly the most serious sin, but it need not be feared by those who are devoted to Me in love and whom I can therefore address directly or through My messengers. For there will also be light there, and anyone who walks in the light will not go astray either. My light of love continuously radiates into infinity, and willing recipients are only ever necessary in order to allow light to penetrate even the darkness of earth …. vessels must always be present to receive My light of love …. People who willingly let themselves be illuminated by Me and then pass on the light they receive. I certainly want to illuminate the whole earth and give light to all people, yet it is the domain of the prince of darkness where the light can only break through when a human heart opens itself in free will to the rays of My eternal light of love …. But then the light will also shine far into the darkness of night and attract people again who desire light, and then My adversary will lose his power in those areas too, for the light will reveal his nature and his activity, and people will flee him and consciously turn to Me, from Whom the light emanates which makes them happy. But in darkness he can work without being recognized, and therefore I will bless every person who is willing to receive light and pass it on …. I will also provide him with strength to help those who take the wrong path and therefore need a light to escape the darkness of night. For light alone is bliss, and light is supplied to all who hear My word and also live according to this word ….

Amen

You can only ever prove your love for Me through unselfish works of love for your neighbour …. And I require this evidence from you, for you cannot love the father Whom you do not see if you deny your love to the brothers you see. You all came forth from Me, My love created you and you were also love in your original substance. The fact that your love now changed was an act of turning away from Me, and this act also repeated itself towards your fallen brothers, for you were no longer capable of love. The return to Me can only take place in love, thus you must feel love within yourselves and then you can also unite with Me again. But then the feeling of love is not limited …. the love in you grasps all beingness, and in all naturalness it also turns towards your fellow human beings, your neighbour, and it will also express itself towards the neighbour. And only then will you provide the evidence that love is in you, that you also love Me and that the return to Me is now also assured. But if you believe that only emotional feelings are to be understood as ‘love for Me’, then your love has not yet been kindled, because this inevitably also includes your neighbour, because true love is My inheritance and also does not exclude any of My creatures. For I cannot be satisfied with emotional impulses which easily rise in many people and just as easily fade away again when other impressions move the human heart. But anyone who performs works of love for his neighbour with unselfishness has experienced a change in his nature, the person places self-love behind selfless love for his fellow human being, and this person also gives Me proof that he loves Me …. For I Myself can now work in him and impel him to increase his love, because it is also applied in the right sense. However, practicing neighbourly love is often the cliff for people where they fail. Many people pretend to love God, but words alone are of no use. And the deed must be done to the fellow human being, only then can one speak of ‘love for Me’. And as long as people’s main thoughts are the improvement of their own well-being, they will only lie to themselves if they pretend to love Me …. But the bond with Me will be completely different for the person who observes the commandment of neighbourly love, who does not need this commandment either and yet is absorbed in caring for his fellow human beings. He will communicate with Me in all informality, he will always feel Me close to him, for he allows My presence within himself precisely through his love for his neighbour. He will also by no means need to do without My care of love, for as he distributes himself he will receive, and his love for his neighbour will again and again prompt him to give, be it earthly or spiritual goods …. and again and again he will therefore also be allowed to receive earthly and spiritual gifts and be blissfully happy in My love, because he knows where the gifts come from, because he knows that he has a faithful father in Me Who holds his life and his destiny in His hand. He knows that he is safe but this firm confidence is only given to him by the love which embraces all his fellow human beings and which only ever impels him to help earthly and spiritually. And I demand this love from you humans, the love for your sisters and brothers whom you know to be in need. Only then will you prove your change of nature, only then will you be on the safe path to Me, which you can only reach through love ….

Amen

You should not close yourselves off to the gifts of grace from above, for if you don’t make use of them you will find it difficult to resist the world and its temptations because you lack the strength to do so, which you can repeatedly receive from My word. Don’t believe that it doesn’t matter whether I speak to you or not …. nor believe that you can receive strength elsewhere in order to be able to fulfil your earthly task, for this earthly task consists of overcoming the world …. matter …. and to mature spiritually, for which you absolutely need strength, because it is extremely difficult for a being which is still under My adversary’s control to become free from him. And only I can give you this strength, for the adversary takes it from you and keeps you weak in order to prevent a return to Me. But I am always ready to supply you with strength in the form of My word. And since you humans only rarely accept it where it is offered to you, since you lack the faith that I Myself want to address you through those proclaimers, I have let further springs spring up in My love where the living water now flows towards you in all purity, where you may refresh yourselves and constantly draw strength from the water of life. And you should not pass by these springs but interrupt your walk and receive strength and reinforcement and only then continue on your way …. And then you will take every obstacle lightly, you will become overcomers and it will no longer be difficult for you to renounce the material world and its pleasures because you will exchange something else for it which will satisfy you far more than the goods of this world …. And it shall not annoy you when that which still belongs to the world is fatefully taken from you, when you are forced to make sacrifices, when obviously the world’s pleasures are withdrawn from you, for then I only provide you with hidden help to detach yourselves, and I quietly urge you to where My word sounds, where a spring has opened, and I offer you something else for the loss you have suffered. It is by no means then a bitter fate which has affected you but a grace which you should only accept gratefully, for one day you will recognize it that only My love was active, even though it made you become fainthearted at first …. (21.12.1957) But once you have feasted on My word then your thinking will also clear up, the confusion into which you seem to have got will clear up, for one benefit of this greatest gift of grace, My word from above, also has a noticeable effect: you can explain all events around you, you know that they are only means to release you from the world and its dangers, you know that they are no coincidence but determined by Me and My will in order to help you. For as long as you humans regard earthly life itself as the purpose of your existence you will live wrongly, and then it will only serve no purpose …. But if you learn to recognize that it is only the means to an end, that you should wage the final battle in earthly life against everything that belongs to My adversary in order to come closer to Me, then you will also evaluate it as a gift of grace; and you can only come to this realization if you let yourselves be taught by Me through My word, either directly or through My messengers who receive My word from Me. Thus, first of all it concerns the knowledge which can grant you a certain realization if you willingly accept it. And this willing acceptance is ‘acceptance of a gift of grace’ …. If you now think about it and try to live your earthly life accordingly, this is ‘using the gifts of grace’ …. And it will certainly bring you success that you will mature in earthly life. For now you will also receive strength because you are willing …. It is solely a matter of your will, it is a matter of how your will adjusts itself when you are offered gifts of grace from Me …. But he has to decide freely, and therefore the human being can only ever be admonished and warned, the ‘word of God’ can be presented to him again and again, but none of My gifts of grace is compulsory, and therefore it is so significant how the human being decides on earth …. Yet he will also be helped in every way so that the decision will be easy for him and that he will make the right decision, for My love constantly seeks to save and to draw the souls upwards from the abyss into the kingdom of light, into My kingdom where there is eternal peace and bliss ….

Amen

And salvation came from above …. For the earth lay in deepest darkness, the earth and the kingdom of light were unbridgeably separated from each other, and therefore first a bridge had to be built from above to the earth, which people were then to enter and were also able to do so, because one preceded them, Who wanted to lead them back to the father …. For the father longed for His children …. But He could not lift them up by virtue of His love, instead, the guilt had to be settled first which had caused a wide gulf between the creations and the creator. Without atonement for this guilt it was impossible to return to the father; but again, the guilt-ridden creatures were also unable to make atonement themselves. And therefore the gulf was unbridgeable until a saviour descended from above Who accomplished the work of atonement …. The eternal love Itself descended to earth and brought salvation to humanity …. The eternal love Itself redeemed the guilt and made atonement for the great sin by incarnating Itself in a human shell and now made a sacrifice as a human being which was unique …. for this human being Jesus took upon Himself a measure of suffering and torment out of love and walked the path to the cross with people’s guilt of sin burdened …. He suffered and died on the cross in order to offer God the sacrifice of atonement for His fallen brothers. For this man Jesus recognized humanity’s enormous guilt of sin because His soul came from the kingdom of light, because a soul of light, a primordially created angelic spirit, voluntarily offered to make atonement for His fallen brothers as a human being. This soul of light therefore animated the body of the infant Jesus and as such began its journey across the earth with the same task that is given to all of God’s creatures: to spiritualize themselves through a life of love and to reunite with the eternal love as it was in the beginning …. And Jesus exemplified a life of love to people, He showed them the path to the father, He demonstrated in Himself the effect of a way of life in unselfish neighbourly love, and He concluded His earthly life with the work of redemption, with the redemption of that great guilt which once caused the beings to become wretched …. But this act of atonement was not accomplished by the ‘human’ but by the ‘love’ in Him …. For through His life of love He caused the eternal love to manifest Itself in Him, to fill Him completely. And Jesus then drew the strength from it to accomplish the work of salvation. A human being would never have been able to accomplish such an act without love, and thus it was love Which atoned for humanity’s sins …. it was God Himself Whose fundamental substance is love and Who was in all fullness in the man Jesus, so that He deified Himself on earth through love, so that He became one with the eternal love …. God became ‘man’ …. Jesus was ‘God’ …. Only he who has changed himself into love will be able to understand this mystery, and he will also be able to understand that from the hour of redemption onwards there was a bridge which leads to the father, which can be entered by every one of His creatures who wants to reach the father, and that Jesus, the divine redeemer, built this bridge through His suffering and death on the cross. Love Itself devised a path to enable the fallen being to return home to the father, and love Itself initiated this path …. And thus salvation came from above to earth, which was cut off in deepest darkness and no longer had any contact with the kingdom of light. The eternal light let Himself descend, He broke through the darkness, the lord of light and bliss took up the battle against the prince of darkness …. And He defeated him, He paid the debt on the cross with His death and ransomed the souls from the one who held them in bondage. But God accomplished this act of salvation in a human being because God was unable to suffer and die and because a sacrifice which was intended to compensate for this immense guilt could only be associated with immeasurable suffering and torment and the most bitter death, which the human being Jesus wanted to endure out of love for humanity in order to bring His children back to the father, for whom He yearned. This work of salvation was unique, for profoundest love and highest wisdom united, which the man Jesus possessed, and He therefore mustered all willpower to suffer and die for His fellow human beings. And thus salvation came to earth on that night when the infant Jesus was born …. God Himself sent His Son to earth, Who then prepared a dwelling place for the father in Himself, so that father and son …. God and man …. united and accomplished the work of mercy, so that the original sin was redeemed and the path is now free for every human being upwards, to the father, to the kingdom of light and bliss ….

Amen
