A child's prayer to the Father ….

B.D. 7071 from March 22nd 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Express your wishes to Me in all simplicity and you will find a listening ear. Humility of heart will always enable you to find the right thoughts and words, and thus your prayer will be that of a child to its Father which is certain to reach His ear. And I will truly help you …. but you must leave it up to Me how I do this, for My love for you is so great that I only ever have the best in mind for you, that I always want to give you, My children, more than you ask for. And since I, in My wisdom, recognise how I can best make you happy, I also act in accordance with My wisdom. So you should indeed pray to Me, because I can only take effect within you when you have united yourselves with Me …. But after such heartfelt prayer in spirit and in truth you should leave everything else to Me, and everything will happen as is good for you. No prayer to Me will be in vain, even if it is not immediately fulfilled. And time and again you should seek to unite with Me in prayer …. And truly, you will derive great blessings from it, for every contact with Me also assures that My flow of strength will pour into you and comfort your soul even if your body cannot feel it. But it will also affect the latter for it strengthens its spiritual substances and enables them to resist …. you will, so to speak, also physically be conquerors, you will be protected from My adversary’s intrusions, which was purely achieved by your prayer to Me.

Don’t think that I keep My ears closed if a prayer isn’t immediately granted …. I hear My child’s call and Am always willing to help …. yet I also know what is the most effective help, and this is what it will receive. For I always know its state of maturity, I know what it still needs to become perfect, and I will only ever do what draws this child closer to Me for sure. And once it grows in realisation as a result of its life of love it will also know itself what it needs and thus leave everything to Me alone, it will certainly pray to Me but then also patiently wait until I grant its prayer. Yet you should not stop praying either …. for you come so close to Me in prayer that the spiritual bond is tied again, as it was in the beginning …. And especially this bond proves your change of will, and the return to Me has actually already been accomplished, you just have to let yourselves be nourished by My strength time and again so as to enable your nature to change too, so that it becomes again as it was in the beginning. Kind-hearted deeds and heartfelt prayer accomplish this retransformation, and you cannot be asked to do so often enough …. And then you will also understand that you will have to keep getting into difficulties, be they of a physical or psychological nature, so as not to let up in prayer …. in order to look for the bond with Me which will provide you with the strength to achieve this change.

And if I ask you ‘to pray continually ….’ it was certainly not meant that you should carry out lip-prayers for hours on end …. but that you should always be mentally in contact with Me, you should turn to Me in all affairs of your daily life, which merely requires a heartfelt thought …. and you should always be lovingly active …. This is what I consider true prayer, whereby you demonstrate your will to Me and also establish the unification with Me, which is the purpose and goal of your earthly life. And you can certainly come to Me with the smallest request, for the more intimately you associate with Me the more I can repay your trust …. you just ought to leave it up to Me how I grant your prayer; but you can rest assured that your prayer will be fulfilled …. No prayer sent up to Me in spirit and in truth will fade away unheard by Me. And as soon as the prayer is a spiritual request you can also expect its fulfilment with certainty, for if you pray for maturity of soul, for help in spiritual hardship, your bond with Me will also be established again and you can be touched by My ray of love, which always signifies that your appeals have been granted. No human being, whose soul’s salvation is so important to him that he wants to achieve it, will remain weak …. and since I Myself yearn for My child I will also always help it in its ascent to Me …. I will do whatever is of greatest benefit for My child and its soul ….

Amen

The true church …. Sects …. Working of the spirit ….

B.D. 7072 from March 24th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

The fact that so many schools of thought or faith exist and that people are usually admitted into them without their own will should make you humans think. The child’s will does not determine the faith it is ‘born into’, and therefore it is similarly not a persons own merit or own fault to be educated in a particular school of faith …. And if now either one church or the other would be the ‘only beatifying ….’, if only one or the other would be right before God or pleasing to Him, then people who were born into other schools of thought could rightfully feel disadvantaged by God that the ‘true church’ was withheld from them due to their birth. But it is by no means the case that a human being can come to the truth without their own effort, and again it is completely unimportant into which school of thought he was born into …. Because every human being has to struggle for the light of truth himself. And it is equally certain that truth cannot be implanted through education unless the person has gathered the right foundation within himself on which the truth can take root in order to now become and to remain his possession. But this aforementioned fact should also make those people think who maintain their affiliation to a particular school of thought and deem themselves to be ‘living in truth’ ….

It is a presumptuous idea to believe to possess the privilege for the kingdom of heaven …. But many people have this presumptuous idea because all members of sects are utterly convinced to possess the exclusive truth …. And yet they have mostly taken on board what they in turn were taught by those who equally fanatically deemed themselves infallible. And none of them have spent any thought on how God Himself regards those who do not belong to their school of thought ….

As long as a school of thought is only based on love for God and other people and Jesus Christ’s act of Salvation it can also produce true Christians to whom the light of truth will soon shine as well …. For if God’s commandments of love are fulfilled while believing in Jesus Christ the divine Redeemer, the human being is becoming active himself, and then he has voluntarily joined the ‘community of believers’, the church which Jesus Christ Himself founded on earth ….

And every human being has to make this personal decision for himself,. or: the fundamental religion is the fulfilment of the commandments of love and as long as this is ignored the person stands outside the church of Christ, outside of the truth, in spite of belonging to a school of faith which pretends to be the ‘only true’ and ‘beatifying’ one.

No human being can acquire beatitude merely by belonging to a particular school of thought or through actions demanded by it …. Only truly unselfish love for other people and thereby also demonstrated love for God leads to beatitude, and this can be practised in every school of thought, which will then also lead to the knowledge of pure truth. However, as long as there are separate communities, as long as each one tries to win members for itself who have to prove their membership by accepting what they teach themselves …. as long as these members’ freedom of thought is restricted they are mere supporters but not living (24.03.1958) Christians who can consider themselves to belong to the church of Christ ….

But as soon as a person becomes ‘alive’, which thus only requires the condition of a life of love, he also realises the extent of truth a school of thought can claim for itself. Then he will certainly be able to instruct his fellow human beings better than the leaders of the schools of thought but he will not be able to transfer his insight to his fellow human being either, instead his fellow human being has to fulfil the same conditions which will lead to the realisation of the pure truth: He first has to become a ‘living’ Christian through a life of love because this results in a strong faith, and then he also belongs to the church of Christ, which He Himself has built on the rock of faith.

It should make sense to every thinking human being that God will never depend a person’s beatitude on the school or community of faith he belongs to, since the simple fact that people are born into and attached to such communities without volition should make them think …. provided they still have enough faith to acknowledge a God and a purpose for the human being. For atheists such thoughts are not worth discussing anyway because they dismiss every school of faith. But to those who all too eagerly support their opinion and repeatedly try to prove their truth by quoting words from the scriptures which, however, they only interpret rationally, apply the words that only love alone activates the spirit within the human being. In that case, however, the spirit will also instruct them in accordance with the truth, and therefore misguided teachings will also be highlighted from which the person has to liberate himself if he wants to be a living Christian, a follower of the true ‘church of Christ’, which does not exhibit any other outward characteristics than just the working of the divine spirit ….

Amen

Importance of being responsible ….

B.D. 7073 from March 26th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Every human being is solely responsible for his soul. And therefore it is of utmost importance for him to know what he has to do in earthly life in order to save the soul from falling into the abyss, from eternal darkness and torment, in order to prepare a blissful fate for it, an eternal life …. He has nothing more to do than to free his soul from dense shells which surround it, to create the possibility for it again to let itself be radiated through by the divine light of love, as once before the being fell …. The human being must be aware that earthly life was given to him for this purpose, and thus he must also use this life for this purpose. And every day, every hour gives him the opportunity to do so, for he need only constantly practice unselfish love …. He has to try to free himself from selfish love, which let those dense shells grow around the soul. Whatever the human being undertakes on earth is completely worthless for eternity, for the transformation of his being, for the maturing of the soul, if unselfish love is not the motive of his activity. And everything that arises from the motive of self-love is only of use for the time of earthly life but not of lasting value for eternity. The human being should always observe which feelings dominate his thoughts and actions. And he will be able to ascertain that self-love still emerges powerfully and unselfish neighbourly love is rarely only the driving force in his actions. But with good will he can change himself and his feelings, he can consciously work on himself by forcing himself to put aside himself and his desires in order to help those who are in need instead …. And he will always see hardship around him, he will always have the opportunity to be of service, and it will also always give him more pleasure the more consciously he works on himself …. yet not for the sake of a reward but out of his own conviction to be inadequately shaped and to use earthly life in order to become perfect. He must strive upwards, then strength will also be supplied to him from above …. He must want that his earthly life is not lived in vain at the end of his days, and then he will certainly also reach the aim. As soon as the human being has succeeded in putting his ego aside for the sake of his fellow human being he has already become a victor, and the soul’s shells dissolve and can let in the divine ray of love, and then he no longer needs to fear having travelled the earthly path in vain …. But he must also do this very work on himself and know that he himself bears the responsibility. But the knowledge comes to him through the word of God …. If he allows himself to be touched by God’s word, if he thinks about it and tries to follow it, then the work on himself already begins …. But anyone who does not listen to the word of God, who only lets it ring in his ears, who does not feel addressed by it, walks through life irresponsibly, even if he acts responsibly in earthly matters …. For he is only driven to this action by his self-love, which seeks earthly success, honour and fame but does not result in any spiritual transformation …. And such people will also hardly believe in the soul’s continued existence after death and its torments in the kingdom of the beyond. For self-love makes it impossible for him to believe …. And therefore love for God and one’s neighbour cannot be preached diligently enough, because only through such can the human being attain faith and the light of realization. Yet the human being cannot be forced into love either, it has to develop in him freely, but every human being is capable of it, because every human being has been given a spark of love for this course of his earthly life, thus only every human being needs to ignite it …. for which only his will is necessary. And the will is free but can be stimulated by the consciousness of responsibility. And the awareness of responsibility can also be awakened in every human being as soon as he seriously reflects on himself, on the creative power which brought him into being and on the purpose of his existence …. For anyone who seriously reflects on these questions will also receive a mental answer, and this answer will prompt him to live a conscious life with the purpose of the past perfection. And furthermore, every person will also receive enlightenments from outside which he can accept or reject …. But his own attitude is required, because only he himself can accomplish the work of changing his nature. But since every human being knows the damaging effects of an earthly, irresponsible life, he also knows the importance of a sense of responsibility …. And he can also value this for his soul …. and the transience of all earthly things should strengthen the awareness of responsibility for the eternal and imperishable even more …. Without love, however, man remains blind in his spirit and completely inactive. For the human being’s work on his soul consists precisely of works of unselfish love, and as long as the human being’s will is not willing to do so, the purpose of earthly life will not be fulfilled either, and the soul is and remains in greatest adversity, and the danger of sinking into the abyss again is great if it enters the kingdom of the beyond in this dark state …. unless the completely unselfish love of a human being on earth follows it into that kingdom and helps it to achieve a little light there …. But she will never be able to catch up or achieve what she was able to achieve on earth ….

Amen

Unbelief before the end …. Satan's activity ….

B.D. 7074 from March 27th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Humanity will perish in its ungodliness, although it is visibly supported by My adversary, hence gaining earthly power and wealth, knowledge and fame. For it is and will remain worldly profit which is not permanent, which keeps the souls in utter poverty and destitution and returns them to the same painful state of fate again that they had to suffer for an infinitely long time. People want to deny a God and Creator, convinced of their own strength and intelligence they attribute every earthly success to their own intellect and work and yet are merely controlled by the one who wants to displace Me from people’s hearts and mind. They don’t believe in a God nor do they believe in Satan’s existence, nevertheless, they are in his power. And when the time comes when all faith will dwindle because people are only influenced in this godless direction, the moment will also have come when the adversary’s activity will be stopped …. Everything points to the fact that My adversary rules the world, that he impels people to use their energy purely for earthly goals, that he pushes everything of a divinely-spiritual nature so far away that people won’t make an effort to reach it …. He works on them directly or indirectly, he either openly fights against the faith or he showers people so abundantly with earthly possessions that they detach themselves from Me of their own accord so as not to be deprived of their earthly pleasures, instinctively realising that both together cannot be granted to them. They abandon Me without a second thought, for the world is too enticing and alluring that they cannot resist the temptation. It will also remain a futile undertaking trying to teach people otherwise, since such admonishing voices will be drowned out by the opposing side, because they will be silenced …. if not in another way then by force …. The poisonous seed is already being scattered on the still empty ground, that is, the children are already being given a completely wrong idea about the purpose of their existence, and each tender little plant which turns to the light anyway will be stifled …. the poisonous seed will render it incapable of living. The human being is already guided into wrong thinking as a child and, with the use of clever words, My adversary understands how to gain credibility. And where his cunning is not enough he will use force, for he is in charge of the ruling powers which assert themselves where no firm foundation of faith was built, which will subsequently also stand up to all onslaughts.

However, I also speak a language which is loud enough that it cannot be ignored …. at first in the form of all kinds of tragic events which should show every person the transience of earthly happiness and worldly possessions. And I will speak more distinctly still but will only be successful with those who have not fallen prey to My adversary as yet. Untold people will end their life on earth in this godless state, engulfed by impenetrable darkness which is inconceivable for you humans. But it was created by themselves, it is the inevitable result of their unbelief in a God and Creator; it is the fate awaiting the souls of all people who submit to My adversary and don’t try to remove their separation from Me. It is their own fault, for every person with a serious will for truth is capable of deliberating …. no-one is forced to adopt his fellow human being’s or the ruling powers’ opinion, because every person’s thoughts are free and he can also use his intelligence. If he does so with the desire for truth and justice, he will also be granted correct thinking by Me and he will find the truth within himself. Therefore I will always influence people’s thinking through unexpected strokes of fate which no-one will be able to defend himself against, for I will not yet give up the fight for each individual soul. As long as a person lives on earth I will also create opportunities for him to attain the right realisation but I will not use force …. just as My adversary cannot forcibly achieve a turning away from Me, even if the earthly authorities take coercive measures …. For I only pay attention to the human being’s will, his inner attitude towards Me. And every thought inclined towards Me will receive strength and help the soul to detach itself from My adversary. Yet success will not be great in terms of numbers, but every single soul which does not descend into the deepest abyss again is a gain for Me …. And therefore My love will do whatever it takes in order to still save those before the end which are not yet entirely in My adversary’s hands, in order to restore their faith in a God and Creator of eternity Who wants to give His living creations a life in freedom, strength and light again which they possessed in the beginning ….

Amen

'Where two or three are gathered ….'

B.D. 7075 from March 28th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Wherever two or three are gathered in My name, there Am I in the midst of them., for every heartfelt thought of Me draws Me near to you, and therefore you can always be certain of My presence if you make Me Myself the subject of your conversations and thoughts. But as soon as I Am present you will also be spiritually illuminated by Me, thus you must also always derive a blessing from it which will be beneficially felt by your soul. And thus you should often gather in My name in order to partake of this blessing, for you constantly need My gift of strength which shall help your soul to progress. Admittedly, every individual person can also seek heartfelt union with Me by handing himself over to Me in thought and thus likewise receive strength in abundance, yet every spiritual conversation is blessed since many souls in the beyond can participate as well and, in turn, spiritually advance themselves. Besides, it also enables Me to intervene in such conversations by steering your thoughts toward questions which occupy the mind of people and the souls in the beyond, which shall be answered to them. You should gather in My name, for by doing so you also prove your love for Me, because every person tries to associate with the object of his love …. People only rarely have the need to exchange their views in spiritual debates; on the contrary, they anxiously avoid displaying their inner attitude …. Spiritual conversations rarely take place, and even less often will people meet for this purpose. And thus they also deny themselves the blessing which they could gain from such meetings. Yet on the other hand they believe that they comply with their spiritual duty in public meetings …. They fail to consider My Words ‘Where two or three are gathered together in My name, there Am I in the midst of them ….’ For these Words should make all those people reconsider in cases where they believe themselves to have sufficiently addressed their spiritual task by taking part in a ‘church service’ where a person can also easily ponder other more worldly thoughts and where a dedication to Me or a heartfelt bond with Me cannot be spoken of. Time and again I must point out to people that I only value a living faith, that I Am not satisfied with Pseudo-Christendom …. Time and again I must emphasise that I desire to be in contact with every individual person, but that this contact must also be established by every individual person, which he can certainly establish at any time and in any place if this is his serious will and heartfelt desire …. Then he will noticeably feel My blessing, and he will feel urged to seek contact with his fellow human beings, precisely in order to discuss what moves him so strongly …. because My presence impels him to speak regardless of what happens, because spiritually striving people who are full of love for Me will always gather for spiritual exchanges. This promise of Mine should also encourage you to test the strength of My name, for if you have faith you will also know that you, in your contact with Me, will also have strength at your disposal which you can use again for the benefit of your fellow human beings …. As yet your faith is weak, but time and again I remind you humans of My Words, and if you think about them seriously you will give even more significance to this promise; you will know that I Myself can work through you if you allow My working through the strength of your faith. For where I Am present there are no limits to My power …. providing that you don’t draw limits yourselves through your very weak faith. However, I will bless you so that your strength will grow stronger through these Words of Mine ‘Where two or three are gathered together in My name, there Am I in the midst of them ….’ And where I Am My spirit can work and My love, wisdom and power can be revealed ….

Amen

Love alone gives light, i.e. knowledge ….

B.D. 7076 from March 28th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

To walk in the light of truth is the prerogative of those who cultivate a life of love, for darkness must leave them, which was the result of an unloving attitude against Me. Love and light belong together like lovelessness and darkness …. For love belongs to perfection, and that which is perfect must also be in fullest knowledge. But at the beginning of his earthly life the human being is still imperfect, and he should strive for and achieve perfection of his own free will. Consequently he will also be in complete ignorance at the beginning, which will decrease to the same extent as he strives for perfection. But the being’s imperfection consists in the fact that it is still without love, that it is inspired by perverse love, self-love, which once also caused it to become unhappy, i.e. imperfect. And only the transformation of this perverse love into divine, unselfish love will restore the perfection of the being. And then the state of lightlessness or lack of knowledge must also disappear. Then the being must also be enlightened by the light of truth as it once was, and it must know about the spiritual connection and its own relationship to Me, its God and creator from eternity …. And then the unfortunate state which had imprisoned the being since its fall into the abyss will also be remedied …. Once people would try to explain their ignorant state to themselves then light thoughts could already be conveyed to them, for I will not deny the answer to any person who merely mentally asks a serious question. But this question does not move many people …. life is a matter of course for them which they don’t try to explain further. And even their ignorant state does not bother them much …. And therefore their way of life is not a striving for perfection either because they don’t recognize their shortcomings, therefore their desire for truth is only slight and so is their activity of love, and spiritual blindness cannot be taken away from them because they don’t desire to become sighted. But he who has love is also seeing …. For he sees with the spiritual eye and everything will truly be revealed to him which was previously still hidden from him. But this fundamental truth can never be conveyed to the intellectually minded person that love alone gives true light to things which cannot be proven earthly …. For the latter alone only values the sharpness of the intellect, and he also denies every ‘weak thinker’ the ability to attain truthful knowledge. But the latter can far surpass the former if only he ignites love within himself, which alone is the path to knowledge. And as long as this fundamental truth is not accepted people’s thinking will also be wrong, for without love they are too far away from perfection and therefore also still far away from truth. I Myself cannot send them My ray of love which is also truth as an emanation of Myself, Who is the eternal truth but also the eternal love …. People without love walk in spiritual darkness, people without love have not yet completed their change of nature for the purpose of which they walk on earth …. People without love still belong to the one who once plunged the beings into the abyss, who himself lost all knowledge and thus also placed his followers into blindness of spirit …. And people without love have also not yet made the free decision of will for Me, otherwise they could also receive the strength from Me to change themselves and their nature and to reach the all-gratifying light again ….

Amen

All divine qualities can break through again ….

B.D. 7077 from March 29th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

You came forth from the power of the Most High …. And therefore this strength must also be present in you, because you are basically the same as He Who created you. But as human beings you are anything but powerful, you are weak, dependent beings who are subject to the laws of nature and cannot overturn these laws by yourselves. And yet you are of divine origin …. You can only believe this, for it can only be proven to you if you make an effort in faith to call upon God’s strength in your weak, powerless state …. Only this is necessary in order to then also be able to perceive a constant change in your being itself, for you will then be able to recognize all signs of a divine origin in yourselves again, you will develop abilities which prove that divine origin, and your initially imperfect being will be able to achieve a perfection still on earth which is very clear evidence that you once emerged from the most perfect being. You yourselves have all those divine qualities within you but you had repressed them, they could no longer express themselves, you were deprived of all divine strength through your own fault, you became powerless, imperfect beings …. But you can also transform yourselves again into highest perfection, you can have unlimited strength at your disposal if you only strive for one thing: to re-establish the connection with the one Who created you …. With Him you are powerful and full of light, without Him you are weak and surrounded by darkness. And you got into this state due to your former turning away from Him, which is why you have to seek unification with Him again. Your creator is the original source of strength …. Union with Him therefore means being in the midst of the flow of strength which permeates everything and no longer allows any weakness to arise. If you humans are now aware of your state of weakness you should not let yourselves be idly overpowered by it but turn to Him Who has placed you out of His strength but Who also demands your union with Him in order to be able to flow through you with His strength. For your state of weakness is by no means His work but your own fault, and thus you must also long for strength of your own accord and desire to receive it from where it originates …. from your God and creator of eternity. You should not hesitate for a moment, for the emergence of divine attributes will make you immeasurably happy and you will not be able to understand why you held back from conscious contact with Him for so long. You resign yourselves to your weakness where you could be exceedingly powerful; you subordinate yourselves to the laws of nature where you could be master of them yourselves; you are content with your own vitality, but you do not make an effort to acquire back the former divine strength, which only requires your free will. As originally divine creatures you knew no lack, neither of light nor of strength, and you were blissful in abundance …. As human beings, however, you cannot be called blessed, precisely because you have lost strength and light …. And yet you could prepare yourselves for bliss again by only turning in free will back to where your origin was …. to God, Whose nearness irrevocably takes effect in an influx of strength which makes you divine creatures again, which you were in the beginning. But since this change back is a matter of free will you can only be informed of it, a knowledge which you can believe but also reject as unbelievable. But you can provide yourselves with the proof of this, for every human being can establish the connection with the eternal source of strength, and then all divine characteristics will emerge again, every weakness will fall away from the human being and he will be able to achieve seemingly supernatural things, yet in truth only his original nature will emerge again, for he once came forth from the original source of strength and therefore must also be strength in himself and now be able to work with this strength as soon as he has reconnected with the original source of strength …. God Himself ….

Transience …. love life can lead to faith ….

B.D. 7078 from March 30th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Anyone who can decide to put aside the body’s desire for the sake of spiritual success will truly be able to achieve it in a short time. For I will obviously come to his aid, for he begins to recognize his purpose of earthly life, and I will always stand by him so that he does not fall back into the whirlpool of the material world. But precisely this inner desire for constant success, the desire for imperishable possessions, has to awaken in him himself, it cannot be given to him from Me because this is already the decision of will which the human being should make on earth in complete freedom. My help merely consists of repeatedly making him aware of the transience of all earthly things in order to induce him to reflect …. to search for that which is imperishable. But with many people even such indications are in vain, and the more they lose earthly, the more tenaciously they try to replace what they have lost, and spiritual progress is not achieved. However, people are not so different that a change in their aim direction would not be possible. All of them could come to the same result through reflection, because every human being also knows that at the moment of death he loses everything he has acquired on earth …. But not every person thinks about what comes after death …. And therefore he does not care for spiritual treasures because he does not believe he will ever need them. And again, every person could believe if only he lived a life of love, for this every person can do even if he stands in the midst of the world and strives earthly …. For as soon as he also has a heart for his fellow human beings despite material thinking, he would sooner or later also attain faith, he would nevertheless occasionally reflect on his purpose in life and its actual value. And so it is again and again love which leads to a change in people’s thinking. And this is also My help, that I let the human being see the hardship of his fellow human being in order to stimulate his willingness to love. Admittedly, only a few of the materialists will feel touched and intervene to help, but it will not be to their detriment …. The real ascent, however, only begins for the soul when he seeks to achieve more …. something that satisfies him inwardly. Then his soul could already audibly announce itself, then the spirit in the human being could already have an effect on his thinking, and the slightest attention towards those spiritual expressions will soon be rewarded, for the human being will also find what satisfies him more …. Then I can obviously spring into action by sending him small truthful revelations in an unobtrusive way, through writings, conversations or mental influence, which will stimulate all his thoughts and urge him into further searching. Then he will have voluntarily taken the first step and he can be certain that I will now come far towards him in order to only induce him to stay on the path he has taken. Nor do I want to win him by any means through coercion, otherwise I could truly easily produce another human race …. but as soon as a small turn towards Me has been made in free will I can already reveal Myself to the human being, yet always such that he will not be subject to any compulsion of will, instead he will only be quietly stimulated to take a stand on such revelations which do not seem outlandish to him, which merely move his thoughts. Yet I guard and nurture such a budding little plant …. the soul of such a person …. with all love and care, so that he will not be forced to do anything …. with all love and care that it does not wither, that it develops and matures into a vigorous plant which can bear fruit which will no longer perish …. but I will also again and again take care of those who are still completely in material thinking and whose only aim is only the world and its goods. I try the work of return on each individual, even if only rarely with success. And the surest means for this is precisely the proof of the transitoriness of earthly goods and earthly possessions and happiness. Only such evidence can be successful, and therefore events of all kinds will again and again shake people up and give them cause for reflection …. But it is up to every person to draw his own conclusions from this …. Every person will receive help from Me, because this is the sole purpose of earthly life, that he detaches himself from matter and looks for a spiritual aim while he is still on earth ….

Amen

People must all hear God's word ….

B.D. 7079 from March 31th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Much has already been explained to you, you have received many teachings and gained many spiritual possessions because My word sounded to you from above, because you were constantly enlightened by My spirit and thus received the bread of heaven. And again and again I pour out My gifts of grace upon you so that you don’t go the wrong way in the darkness which is spread across the earth, so that light will come to you who desire light. So people cannot say that they cannot find their way in the darkness, for in a flash a light shines on all who want to escape the darkness. But whether this will arises in them, that alone determines their spiritual state, for I do not force the will. And the will can awaken in every person who receives My pure word …. coming from above …. is supplied to. For My word has this effect of strength if the human being listens to or reads it completely impartially and starts to think about it. And therein lies the reason why I encourage all My vineyard labourers to be eagerly active, why I again and again commission you to spread My word …. People must be given the opportunity to take a stand on My pure word, only then will the word’s strength also prove itself in them, whereas it remains completely ineffective with those who listen to it with inner resistance or complete indifference. They will turn away and continue to go their way in darkness of spirit. But again and again a person will be found who hungrily accepts the bread from heaven, and it will truly be proper nourishment for him and his soul will be able to feast on it. I help you, My co-workers on earth, to knock at those doors where there is a need for proper nourishment for the soul …. But I also need you to guide My word there, because everything has to take place within the framework of nature in order not to endanger freedom of will. And where helping hands reach out to Me, which carry on in My name what they receive from Me, there My blessing will also accompany their work …. I will direct their thoughts correctly and show them the doors where they shall knock to distribute their lord’s gifts. Yet it is up to every recipient of My gifts of grace whether and how he evaluates them …. for letters alone cannot quench a soul’s hunger or thirst, but if the spirit in the human being is active, which is prompted by good will to express itself, then the letter will also come alive, and then the human being’s heart will hear Me Myself and no longer oppose My address. And thus you, My servants on earth, shall do the groundwork so that I will find open doors which now let Me in Myself because they now desire everlasting nourishment through Me. I only want to be able to address people …. And for this I need you as mediators, because a direct address is equal to a compulsion of will which, however, is switched off. For My gifts of grace will constantly flow to you, and therefore you will never lack spiritual possessions which you should distribute …. And you know that you will receive something which you can value as the highest good on earth …. a gift of My endless love for you …. You know that you receive the truth when I speak to you …. and thus you only spread the pure truth, and thus you also carry light into the darkness. But without light no human being can find the path to Me, for darkness is My adversary’s territory which he has to leave if he wants to reach Me. And you shall help your fellow human beings to step out of the darkness of night into the light of day, and you can do so because I Myself provide you with the right light, because I Myself want to come in the word to those who do not resist Me …. And everyone I can address once will also be struck by a ray of love light from Me, and now he will also open himself and let bright light flow into him without resistance, and he will be saved for all eternity ….

Amen

Embodied beings of light …. Jesus' disciples during His time on earth ….

B.D. 7080 from April 1st 1958, taken from Book No. 75

You, too, belong to those who, as My true disciples, shall proclaim the Gospel of love in the last days, who gathered around Me while I lived on earth and to whom I gave the promise that they will be permitted to serve Me at the time of My return. Only when you hear these Words will you understand the importance of the mission I assign to you …. I can only use people who are enthusiastically committed to their work in their willingness to be of service and love for Me. Such conscientiousness can no longer be found among people of this earth …. thus I had to send you to earth but I could not let you keep the recollection of your past activity. You must travel the earthly path like all other people, in awareness of your human weaknesses and struggling for a strong faith …. However, My spirit can work through you ….

You are able to receive the truth from above and understand it …. and therefore you can also spread it throughout the world, as was your task in the past. I Am giving you this hint of your origin because you shall realise from this that you will only administer that office for a short time which you also administer in the spiritual kingdom, and that this office is an extremely significant one, for what I previously started …. to pave the path back into the Father’s house …. you shall once again firmly impress upon people and also show them the way before the end arrives, before a period of a completely new order follows. You have always been willing to inform people of Me and My act of Salvation on My behalf. But during the last days before the end it is particularly necessary for people to remember Me, for I alone Am their salvation, I alone can pull them back from the abyss that they are approaching in their blindness …. However, they must acknowledge Me, just as they did when I lived on earth they must call to Me ‘Lord, help Me ….’ But people walk along without knowledge, for whatever they know about Me and My act of Salvation is merely a myth for them …. For this reason you must proclaim Me in the world with utter conviction. And since you, as human beings, are no different, even though you have come from the kingdom of light, you must first receive through My spirit the true knowledge about Me and My act of Salvation so that you will be able to stand up for Me with conviction ….

Your soul allows for the working of the spirit in you …. a process which is only rarely demonstrated by present-day people and who therefore also find it difficult to believe in. And because your task is so important I have educated you again as in the past …. i.e. your human nature had to accept heavenly wisdom first in order to be subsequently able to preach among humanity again, as you did in the past. In those days the number of My disciples was large and many offered themselves to take this path across earth in the last days before the end in view of the immense spiritual adversity which urgently requires help …. But every light soul on earth also had to voluntarily acquire the degree of love again which allows for the ‘working of the spirit’ …. This person’s struggle is no less strenuous than that of any other person, it is just that the soul will always have the will and the connection with Me and therefore live a life of love, which then will also guarantee the working of the spirit. This makes it possible to convey My Word to earth again, I Myself will once again be able to preach the Gospel of love to everyone who will not close his ears and heart …. You have become My forerunners again, you only carry My Gospel throughout the world, you do not speak your own words but allow Me Myself to speak through you, just as it was your mission after My ascension when you became receiving vessels for Me Myself which enabled Me Myself to be with you in spirit. And so I will always be present to people until the end of the world …. For without Me no-one will attain beatitude, without Me the path into the Father’s house cannot be found, without Me humanity will live in guilt and sin and you will take the downward path. Yet My Own will eagerly participate in the redemptive work, My Own will place themselves at My disposal wherever I will need them …. And all those of you who want to serve Me belong to My Own and will indeed be able to accomplish your work successfully, for you will only ever work on My behalf …. and if the Lord assigns an office to you, He will also give you the strength to administer it …. He Himself will be with you with His strength and His blessing and, once your mission is over, will fetch you again into His kingdom ….

Amen

God's blessing …. Plan of Salvation …. Change of will ….

B.D. 7081 from April 2nd 1958, taken from Book No. 75

My hands rest upon you with My blessing, you will feel it and sense an inner peace. For My blessing is a gift of strength, My blessing is the help you need in spiritual and worldly adversity. Thus be comforted wherever you may go, for I escort you, I walk next to you and you will safely reach your goal. Someone who only has Me at heart need not fear any downfall, I carry him through difficulty and danger into a safe haven. I only want to win you over, your heart and your will …. I only want you to lift your eyes up to Me so that you turn to Me again, just as you once turned away from Me. And I see what goes on in your heart, even if your mouth remains silent, if you outwardly give no sign of your affinity to Me …. But I will not let go of My hand again, I will always try to strengthen your bond with Me until you have finally entered into union with Me, until the goal has been reached that was set for your path of earthly life …. Nevertheless you should know that his direction of will is left up to each person …. You are not compelled to think one way or another; your thoughts will always remain free even if you are forced into specific actions …. For were I to forcibly influence your will you would be Mine already, since this power is truly at My disposal; however, it would neither make Me nor you so happy that you could praise yourselves blessed forever …. Yet a free decision of will for Me assures the most blissful fate, and that is what I want you to have. As long as you have not attained knowledge of My eternal plan of Salvation you cannot grasp the implication of such free decision of will either.

For there is more at stake than the short time of your earthly existence, it concerns eternity, it concerns something that exceeds your comprehension as long as you cannot be placed in a state of realisation by My spirit, which enlightens you also in regards to that which so far was incomprehensible for you. Even if the knowledge of it were conveyed to you, you would nevertheless not understand it as long as you have not established a bond with Me …. But you can rest assured that no human being who sincerely desires it is denied this realisation. What once threw you back, what once deprived you of this realisation, what turned you into imperfect beings, was solely caused by your apostasy from Me, by your deliberate separation from Me …. although you will never ever be able to disconnect yourselves from your God and Creator. Therefore it only requires you to deliberately turn towards Me again in order to lead you back to the light of realisation, to strength and to your once perfect state. For this reason I only seek to achieve redirecting your will towards Me. You will indeed only be truly happy again in your conscious bond with Me …. I, too, long for My children who once left Me as a result of their conceited thinking, this is why I incessantly pursue them with My love and try to persuade them to return to Me …. nevertheless, I often use means in which you humans are unable to recognise the love of a Father for His children …. And yet, it is love …. a love which wants to make you immeasurably happy and which only ever tries to reach the goal that the child will find the path to the Father in order to remain with Him forever ….

Amen

Fall of the spirits …. Faculty of thought …. Lucifer's fall ….

B.D. 7082 from April 3rd 1958, taken from Book No. 75

It is far easier to familiarise you with the spiritual correlations which explain your own existence than to impart the right understanding to you about spiritual events which took place when I gave life to all of you as spiritual beings. The foundation of My plan of Salvation was only the outcome of prior events in the kingdom of the spirits …. And to comprehend this occurrence requires an abundance of light first which you do not yet possess as human beings on earth, even if you endeavour to live in accordance with My will …. Yet these spiritual events were essential for the free decision of will, which all beings that emerged from My love had to pass in order to attain highest perfection: as free-working beings to be independent of My will and yet to think, want and act with the same will as My own. And this free decision of will also required the necessary prerequisites …. The being had to be able to fall into the abyss, just as, alternatively, it had to be able to reach the highest pinnacle …. As soon as an upper or lower limit had been set for the being, its was no longer free either. And thus this freely evolving will was, in turn, the result of thinking …. the thought, however, was an expression of strength by Me which I transmitted to the being …. which then stimulated the being into forming its own opinion about it.

Hence, the being’s own ‘faculty of thought’ consisted of processing a received mental illumination, thus to more or less deliberate the thought, or the being would have remained merely My ‘work’ if My thought inevitably had caused it to think the same …. But I wanted to externalise completely free living beings and therefore endowed them with the ability to make their own judgment which, however, had the potential to evolve in different directions.

It would never ever have been possible for Lucifer to desert Me had he not possessed this faculty. In that case, however, he would not have been a free spirit either but always just a puppet and entirely subject to My will. Thus I had to completely isolate this as well as all subsequent beings from Me, they had to be able to enjoy utter freedom and not be restricted in any way. Consequently, they also had to be able to evaluate the transmitted thoughts positively or negatively …. that is, the being itself was able to carry out what these thoughts motivated it to do in full agreement with Me, thus with the same will as Mine …. But likewise it was able to ‘think differently’, thus by virtue of its faculty of thought also able to come to different conclusions. This, however, only happened when it no longer considered this ‘faculty of thought’ as a gift from Me but as its own product, and this erroneous self-confidence resulted in clouding its realisation. Every spiritual being was indeed externalised by Me as an independent entity but its fundamental nature was love, and thus this love also had to look for the bond with Me, because love strives towards love …. And for that time its will also completely concurred with Mine. But any easing of the bond with Me also showed itself in the deviation of the being’s will from Mine, and this, in turn, resulted in using the faculty of thought in the wrong direction, because it has to be able to ponder every thought in all directions or the will would not be free …. which is not to say that a wrong thought flowed from Me Myself to the being ….

The first being, Lucifer, was brightly illuminated …. and he was able to communicate with Me but also able to direct his thoughts wrongly; nevertheless, he would always have had the opportunity to submit his wrong thoughts to Me so that I could have been able to answer him. But it was precisely these wrong thoughts he believed he could hide from Me, which was already a lessening of his love and thus resulted in a lessening of light too. And thus, one of his first wrong thoughts also included doubts about My power because he was unable to see Me …. The realisation that he himself would have ceased to exist in the face of My excessively brightly radiating primal light did not stop his desire. He refused to accept this awareness and found his own explanation for it in My ‘powerlessness’ …. which in turn was a thought which already demonstrated that he had considerably loosened his bond with Me by the time this thought emerged in him. To the same extent as he began to doubt My power his own consciousness of strength grew, and then one wrong thought followed another …. his will no longer agreed with Mine, his love began to wane, and he increasingly closed himself to the flow of My love’s strength …. because by now he had also lost the realisation of the fact that he, too, had to be nourished by My strength first in order to be creatively active.

Yet for the sake of My intended goal: – to guide the beings which had emerged from him and Me into highest beatitude …. I did not stop any of the beings, not even My first-created bearer of light, from using their will incorrectly …. I did not stop any being from using the faculty of thought wrongly. For I externalised all of them as free beings, and the beings’ greatest beatitude also consists of creating and working in utmost freedom. And that also necessitates absolute alignment to My will without any coercion. But if no being had been able to think and want other than in accordance with My will, then the being would not have had free will either which, however, irrevocably belonged to a divinely perfected being …. And I can only speak of My living creations as ‘My children’ when they have completely voluntarily entered into My will, and only then are they granted beatitude which presupposes highest perfection. And this perfection could not be bestowed upon My beings by Me but it has to be acquired by every created being of its own free will ….

Amen

Good Friday ….

B.D. 7083 from April 4th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

You should always remember My infinite love which motivated Me to accomplish the act of Salvation for you …. Whatever the man Jesus had experienced and endured on earth He had accepted because of His love for His fellow human beings whom He knew were suffering grave spiritual poverty. Even as a man He already knew of humanity’s immense guilt of sin and the hopelessness of releasing itself without help. This knowledge was the result of His life of love, and thus He took pity on humanity and wanted to help. However, as a result of His love He also realised that He had to fulfil a mission …. that I Myself had sent Him to earth to serve Me as a vessel, and thus I Myself could accomplish the act of Salvation in Him for the redemption of the said immense guilt of sin …. And in accordance with this mission His life on earth progressed …. a life of untold difficulties and pain which first had to mature Him and which His soul experienced simply because of His association with sinful people, because His soul had descended from the kingdom of light into darkness.

But first the earthly shell which enclosed the soul had to be purged by these pains and difficulties, by always resisting the lusts and passions which adhered to it in order to become a worthy receptacle for Me Myself, but Who then completely and utterly permeated Him and thus became as one with Him …. And now His real mission began: to bring light to the people, to proclaim the truth to them, to preach the Gospel of love and thus to show and exemplify the path which they had to take as well if they wanted to enter the kingdom of light and bliss after their death …. in order to finally conclude His earthly path with an incomparable act of mercy …. with His most bitter suffering and the excruciating death on the cross as sacrifice for humanity’s guilt of sin …. And this mission was indeed accomplished by a human being but I Myself was in this human being, I Myself, Eternal Love, accomplished the act of Salvation, because only love was able to make such a sacrifice, only love could suffer the torments of the cross, and only love could find the strength to patiently endure in complete consciousness until His death …. And although the man Jesus exclaimed on the cross the words ‘My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me ….’ it was, after all, only a declaration that the Deity within Him did not compel Him to His action but that the human being Jesus voluntarily offered the sacrifice on behalf of His fellow human beings, that the love within Him motivated Him to continue but that It did not inhibit His freedom of thought and action. Jesus, the man, took humanity’s entire burden of sin on His shoulders and walked with it to the cross ….

Not one of you can understand the full meaning of these Words …. Although I Myself accomplished the act of mercy, because without love the man Jesus would not have been able to take the extent of pain and suffering upon Himself …. yet at the same time the ‘Deity’ could not suffer and thus the level of pain and suffering had to be endured by a soul capable of suffering, by a human being Whose body was sensitive to pain and Who thus made

Amends in this way for what had caused the whole of humanity to become guilty before God. And His soul also suffered beyond words since it came from the kingdom of light and experienced the darkness on earth as indescribable torture …. The man Jesus was ‘My Son, in Whom I was well pleased ….’ He was devoted to Me in every sense, with all His love, He lived amongst sinful people and His soul ceaselessly searched for Me, His God and Father of eternity, His love forced Me to flow into Him incessantly, and thus unification between human and God could take place, i.e. ‘God’s human manifestation’ could proceed in absolute lawful order. For I could never have chosen to take abode in a human shell which was not pure love because I Myself cannot unite with something impure ….

And every immature substance became spiritualised through the suffering of the man Jesus …. and at the same time the whole of humanity was released from the guilt of sin because one human being had sacrificed Himself for love on behalf of His fellow human beings. The man Jesus glorified Me Myself through His death, and I glorified Him by choosing Him as the eternally visible outward appearance for Myself …. by becoming a visible Deity in Him for all My created beings who make themselves worthy of ‘Seeing God’. As long as you live on earth you can forever visualise My infinite love which had helped you to become liberated through the act of Salvation …. but you will only understand the complete profoundness of this act of mercy when you have entered the kingdom of light yourselves, when the light of realisation permeates you once again as it did in the beginning …. Then you yourselves can participate too, you will experience it as reality and only then understand My infinite love which did whatever needed to be done to regain its children who once went astray due to the immense guilt of apostasy from Me ….

Amen

Faith in a mission of the man Jesus ….

B.D. 7084 from April 5th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

In order to be able to believe in Jesus Christ and His work of redemption, in a mission of the man Jesus and its execution, scientific research or intellectually acquired knowledge is not sufficient, for His mission was a spiritual one, and spiritual things cannot be fathomed or proven intellectually. The man Jesus certainly walked the earth like any other human being, for even those unusual phenomena which sometimes accompanied His birth and His earthly life can now only be believed …. They can be explained by opponents as natural today as they were then, as far as credible evidence for such phenomena still exists. Yet this, too, was planned by Me, precisely because faith in Him and His act of salvation should not necessarily be achieved but has to be a free matter of will for every individual person. This faith could be gained under certain preconditions and, as long as the earth exists, it will again and again demand these preconditions …. precisely because it concerns the spiritual maturing of the soul, the final release from My adversary. And thus people will be able to be introduced at any time to knowledge which precisely has Jesus Christ’s act of salvation as its most important content …. and it will always be possible for people to gain a living faith in that which is dismissed with ever greater zeal as a legend, for which such evidence can also never be produced which forces people to believe in Jesus Christ …. Again and again I will work amongst people in the spirit …. But such working of the spirit will also always not be allowed to be one hundred percent proof for fellow human beings. Spiritual knowledge will only ever be believed and understood by those people who strive spiritually themselves, who awaken their spirit within themselves to life and who then truly no longer need proof and yet are full of inner conviction. Anyone who approaches the questions concerning Jesus Christ and His act of salvation intellectually will get lost in all kinds of thoughts and will not find his way through. For he only ever tries to fathom human things, he weighs up all pros and cons and in the end is just as ignorant as he was before …. For although he finds evidence for the existence of the man Jesus, for the reasons of His condemnation and His shameful death on the cross …. as long as he does not know about the spiritual motives of His existence on this earth …. as long as he does not believe that I Myself wanted to create and have created a connection in this human being with the whole of humanity …. as long as he lacks any spiritual knowledge at all, it is also completely irrelevant to want to prove the earthly life of the man Jesus or to explain His earthly activity, because it is also completely irrelevant to such people whether He lived on earth or not, whether His existence can be proven historically …. To recognize Jesus Christ as the divine redeemer, as My emissary Who served Me Himself as a cover, is the only decisive factor …. And this mystery cannot be fathomed intellectually but it can easily be understood by people who desire Me, who keep My easy commandments of love. These will awaken the spirit within themselves which gives them light about everything and especially about the act of salvation. And therefore it will be possible at any time to attain full enlightenment about the one Who has to be acknowledged as the ‘son of God and redeemer of the world’ …. Who has to be acknowledged because He sheltered Me Myself and thus His acknowledgement is also the acknowledgement of Me Myself at the same time, which you once denied Me and therefore also fell into a state of ignorance. The man Jesus fulfils a mission with His earthly life: to atone for your former sin. And as long as this mission of the man Jesus is not recognized, as long as the human being lacks living faith in it, he will remain unchangeably in this state of ignorance, and then it will not be possible for him to change this state intellectually either …. But as soon as he starts to look at everything from a spiritual point of view which requires a life of love true to My commandments …. he will also find the explanation for all events during Jesus’ life on earth. Although he will still not be able to ‘prove’ anything, he will be inwardly fully convinced that he is thinking correctly …. Thus he will believe alive, and then no intellectual thinker, no matter how sharp, will be able to dissuade him from his faith, for then Jesus Christ Himself will help him, then His spirit will work in him as He has promised …. Then the human being’s will is turned towards Me Myself in Jesus Christ and he will brightly and clearly recognize what is still hidden from everyone else ….

Amen

‘Jesus, my Redeemer lives …. ’

B.D. 7085 from April 6th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

The spiritual world is rejoicing and glad about My act of Salvation, for that which had taken place on earth is repeatedly revealed anew to all beings of light and they praise and glorify Me as their Saviour from sin and death Who opened the gate into the kingdom of light for them …. They realise the spiritual significance of My suffering and dying, of the crucifixion and the resurrection on the third day …. They know that a ‘resurrection’ is assured to the human race as a result of this greatest act of mercy, that it is not doomed to eternal death and that one day the hour of redemption will strike for all people after an infinitely long time of harshest captivity. And so their gratitude, their jubilation and their love for Me is immeasurable and increases as soon as they participate in the act of Salvation, which they may repeatedly experience again as happening now because in the kingdom of light no time limit exists, and thus they also experience all past and future events as happening in the present. And if people on earth would likewise try to associate with the process of the crucifixion and resurrection, they, too, would derive the greatest blessing from it, and joy and profound gratitude would enter their hearts in view of the fact that I Myself in Jesus Christ delivered you humans from sin and death. For this was a unique process, no human being has ever taken such immense suffering upon himself, and no human being has ever travelled in complete innocence the most bitter path to the cross which ended with His death on the cross, even though people very often come into situations in which the cruelty of fellow human beings presents them with a seemingly unbearable fate. Yet the spiritual processes which also played a part in Jesus Christ’s act of mercy intensified His physical suffering many times over, because the soul was profoundly enlightened and therefore able to understand everything …. both the spiritual adversity, which all people had fallen prey to, as well as the spiritual state of those who tormented Him and carried out this abominable work on Him, who abused his pure body for their appalling cravings and evil instincts, and who He experienced as emissaries from hell. However, He persevered until His death …. And on the third day He arose again in all glory from the grave which was unable to keep Him imprisoned …. And so His resurrection was the culmination of His act of Salvation, for all those who want to let themselves be redeemed through Jesus Christ can rest assured that they, too, will arise from the dead to eternal life …. Although prior to this people’s lives had not come to an end with their physical death either, because the soul cannot die, it exists forever. But whether the state of the soul will then be a state of life or of death entirely depends on the divine Redeemer Jesus Christ …. Only He can give life to the soul, and only He is the gate to life in beatitude …. Therefore, a soul can also enter the kingdom of the beyond in a state of death and will indeed remain in this state until it calls upon Jesus Christ, appealing to Him for life …. ‘And whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die …’ The hour of physical death can already be the hour of resurrection for every person, no-one needs to fear his hour of death, because One has conquered death and this One promises life to every person who believes in Him …. And so, even people on earth would be able to rejoice and be glad were they to grasp the whole significance of Jesus Christ’s act of Salvation and take part in it …. Then death would have lost its sting for all people …. and all people could join the light beings’ song of praise ‘He has truly risen …. Jesus, my Redeemer lives …. ’

Amen

Jesus' resurrection took the sting out of death

B.D. 7086 from April 7th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Every person’s final hour is preordained …. And yet he need not fear it because it is not his actual end, instead, he will arise again …. because his soul will merely discard its earthly shell, which was only a shackle for it in earthly life, and enter the kingdom of the beyond unburdened, providing that its way of life on earth corresponded to My will …. that his soul therefore attained a specific degree of maturity on earth. Thus, there is no end, even though there is death, i.e. a dead state of the soul, the soul will not have perished. This is the reason why I died on the cross and arose on the third day again, so that the human being, that is, his soul, can also experience the resurrection, so that it can arise from the grave and enter the kingdom again, which is its true home. The fact that the soul will not cease to exist is an irrevocable law because …. everything that came forth from Me …. is and will remain imperishable. And the soul is the spiritual being which originated from Me, thus it continues to exist even though the body will die, but the fact that it can arise after its physical death in light and radiance only became possible after My crucifixion and My resurrection, because before this it was still burdened by the original sin of its past apostasy from Me …. There was still darkness, the dark of the grave, which the soul was unable to escape …. the tombstone had not yet been removed by Jesus Christ, the divine Redeemer …. in other words: the atonement for these souls had not been rendered as yet and without atonement the guilt of sin could not be redeemed …. Consequently, there was also darkness in people’s souls, they lacked all faith in a resurrection after death, they were engulfed by the bleak night of the grave and death had become a fearful event …. And I rose on the third day from the dead to provide people with the evidence that the body’s death is not the end, that the soul will rise again and merely leave the body behind, which is not so spiritualised as yet that it can take it along into the spiritual kingdom as I was indeed able to do because body and soul were clothed in a spiritual garment and the body no longer needed to go through a further maturing process on this earth ….

Through My resurrection I wanted to take people’s fear of death away, I wanted to prove to them that the soul merely changes location when it discards the earthly body, when the inevitable hour of death strikes. For this reason I have risen from the dead, for I conquered death, i.e. the one who had brought death into the world. And so no person needs to be afraid of the hour of death, for it is only the entrance into the actual life which is everlasting …. Death has lost its sting …. Nevertheless it is necessary that the human being acknowledges My act of Salvation and accepts the blessings I acquired for you through My suffering and dying on the cross …. that he allows himself to be redeemed by Jesus Christ, that therefore his original sin will have been atoned first so that Jesus Christ can subsequently push the tombstone away for the soul to rise from the grave’s darkness into bright light, that it thus will enter eternal life …. Anyone who fears the hour of death is still subject to this immense guilt, he has not found salvation through Jesus Christ as yet, he has not released himself from the darkness enshrouding him, he still lays in the grave of his sin, even though his body still lives on earth …. For he will lose all fear of physical death when he has placed himself into My arms, when he sincerely appeals to Me to take care of him at the hour of his death …. For he will blissfully fall asleep in peace with his God and Father, he will leave only his body behind on this earth while the soul will arise, it will ascend to the light, it will not feel the darkness of the grave surrounding it, for Jesus Christ Himself will take its hand and lead it out of its physical shell, He will guide it through the gate of life. And it will know that it, too, has risen from the dead, that it will now live in eternity …. The fact that the human being Jesus rose from the dead is certainly true, and those who believe in Him as the Son of God and Redeemer of the world, as My Emissary in Whom I embodied Myself on earth, will not be afraid of their own hour of death, for Jesus Christ gave them the promise that He will go to prepare a place for those who believe in Him …. Thus they will also be raised to eternal life and He Himself will fetch them as He has promised ….

Amen

Help of the light beings to bring salvation to the people ….

B.D. 7087 from April 9th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

All beings of light are unusually active in order to still help people on earth achieve redemption before the end comes. And whatever can only happen to reach the aim also happens on the part of the spiritual world, which works in My will and on My behalf. And thus you need not be surprised if every person is sometimes treated harshly if he has to endure strokes of fate or if he has to record failures, for as soon as such only contribute towards people becoming more reflective, so that they not only think about their earthly task, such means are only used on the part of those who look after you. But again, no person will be burdened more than he can bear …. And again and again a ray of hope will come for every person, he will also be led out of the most difficult situations as soon as he pleads for help in his heart. And thus it can happen that people will still be won over for Me and My kingdom, for the life which lasts forever. For as soon as a person in greatest adversity points to Me, when it is presented to him to approach Me Myself for help where no earthly help seems possible …. and when he therefore takes refuge in Me he will also visibly receive help. And therefore the beings of light are constantly working on the people of this earth who are assigned to them for their care during their earthly life. For they know how extremely significant it is for every individual to have found Me before the end …. They know about the dreadful fate of those who don’t establish a bond with Me, and their love for all unredeemed impels them into eager activity of love. The day of the end is coming ever closer, every day is lost which the human being still spends completely isolated from Me …. And it is difficult to make up for what he missed in earthly life. But even the short time until the end can suffice to protect the human being from the utmost danger, which consists of the soul experiencing the day of the end in complete remoteness from God and then the new banishment into solid matter is the inevitable consequence. Earthly life is given to the human being so that he consciously and of his own free will seeks to come closer to Me …. If he does not do so of his own accord I will help him in such a way that I let him get into adversity in which he will then look for help. And all My beings of light support Me, because My will alone is active in all of them, because they know about My will and therefore always influence people such that they are quietly urged towards Me. Now their activity only ever becomes apparent to you humans in such a way that great unrest, unforeseen events occur in human life. You humans attribute these again to human influence …. but often they are only evidence of the love of those beings of light through which they want to help you …. And if you could look at everything that happens around you in this way, which affects you unpleasantly …. as long as it is not a matter of distinctly evil activity by people …. then you would also bear everything more easily, for you would always be certain that your prayer, that is, your heartfelt union with Me, will remedy the situation, because it is solely about the bond with Me which you should establish in earthly life. And since you all only have little time left, such events will also increase which cause you hardship and worry, sorrow and suffering, be it illnesses, accidents or other events, which you can only ever effectively counter with devout prayer …. thus with mental union with Me or increased activity of love, which is also a direct bond with Me and always ensures you the strength to be able to endure everything that burdens you. But all of you, whether believers or not, can know that you are in the care of spiritual beings who have been assigned to you for your protection and guidance during your earthly life …. only it is up to you whether you want to let yourselves be guided, whether you listen to them when they try to influence you mentally …. For against your will they must not lead you upwards or bring you to faith in Me …. But they try everything so that you change your will yourselves and listen to them, so that you take your path to Me and mentally unite with Me. But if they don’t succeed in their endeavour then you humans will be in great distress and you will have to fear the end, which will not be long in coming ….

Amen

Unbelief in spirit-work …. lack of understanding of the scriptures ….

B.D. 7088 from April 10th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Anyone who does not believe in the working of My spirit in the form that I Myself speak to people, that they can hear My word within themselves, also has no right to refer to the bible as the allegedly only scripture through which I made My will known …. For he does not know this bible, he only reads it with his worldly mind but not with enlightened thinking, otherwise he would also find the indications of My working of the spirit in the human being in this word written down by My disciples: “I remain with you until the end of the world ….” What else should this mean but that I always and constantly dwell among you in spirit, since I physically left you when I ascended to heaven? And if I have now promised you My presence, do you then believe that I will remain silent and give you no proof of My presence? “I will reveal Myself to you ….” – “I will send you the comforter, who will guide you into all truth and remind you of all that I have said to you ….” Could I possibly give you even clearer indications of My spiritual working on and in you? How else should you be ‘guided’ into the truth than through teachings which the ‘eternal truth’ itself sends to you? How else could I remind you of My word spoken at that time than by speaking to you and calling everything to your remembrance? How could I reveal Myself to you other than that you become aware of My nearness, that you receive a proof of My presence? …. And what moves you, who reject My word spoken from above, to this rejection? But never the urge for truth, rather, you do not want to be led out of your spiritual blindness; it pleases you to remain in it, you do not long for light …. and you are inwardly arrogant …. This must be said to you so that you may know an explanation why My words do not touch you, why you do not recognize them as the ‘voice of the father’ …. For profound inner humility would open your heart to receive gifts of grace which are incomparably delicious, which only become gifts of grace when the human being is humble …. Again and again during My life on earth I mentioned the outpouring of My spirit, and people know from scripture that this promise was fulfilled in My disciples after My ascension to heaven …. But My promises did not only apply to My disciples, they applied to all people who, like My first disciples, firmly believed in Me and lived in love …. Why should I only have spoken to My disciples of that time through the spirit? Why should I not be allowed to speak again and again to those who are devoted to Me in love, who serve Me and want to carry My gospel out into the world again? You, who reject Me, are truly not yet enlightened by My spirit, you do not hear Me, nor do you understand My written word, although every letter is known to you …. You are still dead in spirit or you would like to recognize My voice, for I truly speak in such a way that I can be recognized by every person of good will. But your will is not good because you still let yourselves be controlled by My adversary who has also placed his arrogant attitude in you …. And My grace will not break through arrogance, arrogance will always reject what My love offers as an immeasurable gift of grace, for arrogance is part of the adversary, and he will always influence the human being to reject the father’s words of love and grace …. And until you become humble in your hearts you will not be refreshed by My gift of grace either, instead, you will reject everything that is conveyed to people through the voice of the spirit for the salvation of their souls …. And neither will the scriptures be and give you more than dead letters, you will not attain life through the scriptures either, because even through the scriptures I can only speak to those who in deepest humility ask Me to speak to them Myself …. For I only bestow My grace on the humble ….

Amen

'I Am the bread of life, the manna which comes down from Heaven ….'

B.D. 7089 from April 11th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Don’t be satisfied by merely feeding yourselves in an earthly way, by providing the body with the bread you require in order to live, rather desire the bread of heaven instead, which is nourishment for your soul …. And believe Me, in an emergency the latter will also be able to maintain the body, but the former will never serve the soul in its higher development …. This is why I have said ‘I Am the bread of life, the manna which comes down from Heaven ….’ For if you digest Me Myself …. My Word …. you will live in eternity. Yet your body will cease to exist even if you constantly feed it with earthly food. It is given its time, and when this is over no earthly nourishment will help in order to keep it alive. For this reason you should be more concerned with bestowing life to your soul, you should incessantly feed it with the bread of Heaven, you should make the nourishment available to it, which can only be offered to it from Me. Therefore, you should approach Me directly and appeal to Me for true nourishment and true refreshment. And always remember My Words ‘Therefore take no thought, saying, what shall we eat or what shall we drink ….but seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you ….’ If only people believed this promise …. However, all their thoughts and intentions are purely earthly-inclined and yet, no person can extend his body’s life for even an hour if My will has decided otherwise. But neither can a person give life to his soul if he lets it go hungry, if it remains without food and drink for the sake of the body. But since you humans know that the body needs food in order to live, you become guilty if you don’t provide for the soul as well, which cannot cease to exist; you become guilty because I approach you time and again offering food for your soul …. because you are repeatedly addressed by My messengers and need only listen to them and live up to their words in order to provide Me with the opportunity to nourish and refresh you spiritually for the benefit of your soul. Time and again My Word is made accessible to you, time and again you are requested to enter into contact with Me, you are invited to a feast and can come to My table at any time and thus accept nourishment from Me for your soul …. For My Word is the heavenly bread, it is the living water, My Word is flesh and blood …. Only My Word is the right food for your soul which will help it attain the life it will never lose again …. And because you so scarcely satisfy your soul’s needs, you will also have to suffer physical adversity, the time will come when you, too, will lack in that which you require for your earthly life, if My adversary does not provide enough for you that you will forget about your soul …. But if you have not utterly fallen prey to him as yet, the tangible earthly adversity could still prompt you to turn to Me and appeal to Me to revoke the latter, and then your soul can be nourished at the same time, because every bond with Me will provide strength for the soul, which will thus signify being spiritually fed. The bread of Heaven is indispensable, and from the fact that I described Myself as the ‘bread of life’ it is evident that you must come close to Me Myself, that I want to give Myself away, because I would like to give life to your soul …. And you truly need not walk far in order to be with Me, you need only enter into silence and turn your thoughts to Me, then you will draw Me to yourselves, you oblige Me to offer you My gifts, to offer you nourishment and refreshment, for as soon as you make mental contact with Me during silent prayer you will also open your heart, so that I Myself can enter, and then you will truly not need to go hungry anymore. And I will not only nourish you spiritually but also in an earthly way, for this is the promise I made and I will keep My Word ‘But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you ….’

Amen

Unification with the divine spirit is man's task in life ….

B.D. 7090 from April 12th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

And when My spirit flows through you then you will also be in intimate contact with Me, then your soul as well as your body will be permeated by My strength of love, and then the soul will be able to detach itself and, as it were, already gain an insight into the spiritual kingdom, and the body will also fulfil the soul’s desire …. it will remain at rest and thus be allowed to participate in the blessing which arises for the soul through the direct illumination of My divine spirit. For the spirit in you is in contact with the eternal father-spirit, it is not isolated from Me, its bond is indissoluble, but it cannot work in every person if he is still in an ungodly state of mind …. if his soul therefore turns away from Me, if the soul only ever gives in to the urge of its body but does not pay attention to the urge of My spirit …. Then the spirit is indeed united with Me, but the human being …. whose body and soul …. are (is) still completely isolated from Me. And this is every person’s task in life, to unite with the divine spirit within himself …. For this also means unification with Me at the same time. Yet the human being can rejoice if he has succeeded in doing so, if My illumination of love can take effect in him …. He can rejoice when I Myself work in him through My spirit …. then nothing more can happen to him because he will be able to overcome everything with Me. And thus he will also increasingly push his body into the realm of My spiritual current, as a result the body will also come into the right order, which was previously disturbed by spiritual substances which still resist Me but which, through the influx of My spiritual strength, will be moved to give up their resistance …. which is already noticeable by the fact that the body also increasingly submits to the will of the soul and thus of the spirit and is always ready for such activity which serves the soul’s salvation. Every person can shape himself into a receptacle for My spirit, My spirit could pour into every person who only has the will to purify himself from sin and to carry out the work on his soul which allows Me to enter. For his spirit is My share …. and if I want to take abode in a heart then everything impure must first have been removed from it …. but then everything will also be spiritualized through My divine irradiation, soul and body will purify themselves because they have given up all resistance, for this is brought about by My strength which is truly strong enough to grant support to the still weak and to warm what is still rigid and thus draw it to itself. And anyone who has thus become a receptacle of My spirit will certainly soon put his physical substances into the right order with the help of My spiritual radiation, which is truly able to change everything …. Although such changes are often preceded by hard battles, i.e. the still resistant substances of the body try to assert themselves with all their might and therefore often press it unusually hard by influencing the one who wants to prevent the return to Me …. which manifests itself in the form of all kinds of suffering and illness …. But a soul which has already united with its spirit, which has therefore completely surrendered itself to Me, cannot be prevented by such pressures from establishing the union with Me again and again, and any connection with the success of spiritual influx of My strength of love also strengthens its power and its influence on those bodily substances…, which increasingly give up their resistance because they, too, feel the benefit of such spiritual illumination and soothe themselves, thus their afflictions subside until they finally completely comply with the soul’s desire, which will only ever be spiritually directed. Therefore, open yourselves as often as you can to the influx of My divine spirit …. Let Me Myself work in and on you and want My strength to become powerful in you weak ones …. And you will become free from all spiritual and earthly adversity ….

Amen

Redemptive work requires restless activity ….

B.D. 7091 from April 13th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

You must be restlessly active, for help still has to be brought to many souls, much redemption work still has to be done because time is pressing. And even if the success is not very great in terms of numbers, but every single soul will be eternally grateful to you for helping it to liberate itself from darkness. And every single soul is extremely dear to Me and its salvation an immense joy. You humans cannot yet understand that every soul is My emanated strength of love and that the love for it cannot ever fade away …. And what I have once regained cannot ever fall away from Me again, it remains intimately united with Me and shares immeasurable bliss with Me. For this reason I constantly admonish you, who want to serve Me, to be eagerly active, and I also provide you with access to those where your work is not entirely in vain …. Yet time is pressing towards the end …. whether you humans believe it or not. What will come afterwards for all those who have not followed your call is so dreadful that I would like to warn all people of it but cannot do it in any other way than through you, My messengers. And therefore your work urgently consists of pointing out the near end to your fellow human beings, of making the meaning of this end clear to them and of trying to persuade them to work on themselves so that they will escape the dreadful fate …. so that they may still change their nature and take refuge in Me in Jesus Christ …. Thus you must proclaim Me and My name to them, you must also mention the work of salvation, you must try to encourage them to live a life of love and thus do everything to lead their fellow human beings to faith in Me, but this faith must be a living faith …. For a dead faith is as good as no faith, and it will not protect them from this dreadful fate. Again and again you will have the opportunity to bring Me and My kingdom close to people, to convey My word to them, to preach love to them and to direct their thoughts towards the divine redeemer Jesus Christ, in Whom I embodied Myself for the sake of sinful humanity. Therefore, whatever you do in My name will also be blessed, and every seed that falls on good soil will sprout and grow and bear fruit …. And you should also not let yourselves be discouraged by failures, you should always know that My adversary is also eagerly at work, and you should not give way to this but again and again test the strength of My name which truly achieves much. If you yourselves are driven by love for your unhappy fellow human beings …. if you want to banish the spiritual hardship you know about with a loving will to help, then you will truly also be able to achieve success, for then your love will be the strength which works and which can even touch unwilling hearts and make them receptive for what you offer them. Therefore, don’t slacken in your activity for Me and My kingdom, always let your spiritual work be the most urgent, constantly request strength from Me, which I will truly not withhold from you, and make good use of the short time you humans still have until the end …. For the spiritual adversity is very great and can only be remedied through the loving help of all those who are willing to serve Me, be it on earth or also in the spiritual kingdom …. For all these are My co-workers who are only active in My will but …. as long as they still dwell on earth …. must want to help Me completely freely of their own accord, so that they will then speak to their fellow human beings in My stead and then their work of redemption will not be in vain either ….

Amen

Embodiment of satanic beings …. new banishment ….

B.D. 7092 from April 14th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Every redemption epoch is of a certain duration, and this is also adhered to because it was determined by Me in all wisdom and love, thus it was recognized in the plan of My eternal order of salvation as sufficient for the redemption of the spiritual substance which walks across earth as a human being during this epoch. But if spiritual success is not achieved in this fixed time, this is solely due to people’s free will, for this is not determined. All people could attain freedom because all blessings are at their disposal, because they are guided and cared for by spiritual beings on My behalf and because everything also fatefully approaches them such that they need only take the path to Me …. But they are not forced to do so …. they are completely free to make their decision of will during their earthly life. But as soon as the time of an epoch of redemption has passed, the period of time granted to this spiritual being, which lives on earth as a human being, has inevitably expired and its degree of maturity is now decisive for the stay of this spiritual being. A new epoch begins which will again have its appointed time, for at the end of a period of development it is always to be reckoned with that everything has gone out of order, because in the time before the end the ‘God-rebellious’ has gained the upper hand, i.e. humanity disregards all possibilities of progress, because it no longer strives for any spiritual success and because the earth now carries a particularly large amount of ‘human embodied spirituality’ which is still completely apostate to Me, which allows itself to be influenced by My adversary far more than by Me, which thus still belongs to My adversary’s loyal followers. But this spiritual being also had to be admitted for embodiment on earth because its time had come, which is likewise fixed for those beings which covered the path through the creations until their last stage as human beings …. For all these beings have the opportunity to give up their former resistance and become free during an epoch of redemption. And therefore the duration of time will always be observed, even though hardly any successes can be recorded in the last days …. But once such an epoch has ended, all spiritual belonging to the adversary as well as he himself will also be bound …. i.e., the spiritual which failed as a human being will be dissolved again and bound once more in the creations of the new earth; but he himself will be deprived of his strength and power, and he will no longer be able to try his hand at the people who are now embodied on the new earth …. A new epoch begins again according to the eternal plan of salvation where My love, wisdom and power reveal themselves to all people who now walk across the earth for the purpose of final release from the form. However, the duration of a redemption epoch cannot usually be ascertained by people with certainty, which is also based on My wisdom, because any proof would make them unfree in their will and faith. And therefore the announcements of a near end are not believed by those people who belong to these ‘failures’. Yet this does not stop Me from carrying out My plan of salvation, but the sufferers will only ever be those people who do not want to accept anything imparted to them, for their fate is sealed: An endless-long-lasting time of grace was unsuccessful for them and they have to start again where they stood at the beginning of the present redemption period …. They are conceived again into the hard matter which they were already allowed to rid themselves of an endless long time ago …. a fate which is truly not desirable and yet cannot be spared them because they once again misused their already gained freedom. But for Me a thousand years are like a day …. Nevertheless, one day the time will have come when an era will have been fulfilled, when the end of this time of grace will be, which was granted to the spiritual to become free …. For My plan is unchangeable because it is based on profoundest wisdom and love and I never want to give death but always life to the beings which once certainly freely chose death but shall be awakened to life again by Me ….

Amen

"Many are called, few are chosen …."

B.D. 7093 from April 15th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

“Many are called, but few are chosen ….” However, you should not take these words as if I only grant special graces to some, as if I arbitrarily choose My servants and co-workers on this earth. Rather, it is up to you to prepare yourselves in such a way that I can now choose you for an activity which requires certain prerequisites which not everyone can carry out if he does not shape his nature accordingly. And many could do it …. therefore many are called …. But only a few do it, only a few take the transformation of their nature so seriously that I can therefore also choose them to serve Me. But again, this election on My part has to precede it, the human being cannot ‘call’ himself, nor can he be called by a fellow human being to be a true servant of God …. which is why not all who pretend to be such on earth are to be regarded as ‘My servants’ either. In order to enter My service conditions have to be fulfilled first which allow the working of My spirit. And My spirit, in turn, can only become effective if the human being, through diligent soul work, prepares himself to become a vessel into which My spirit can now constantly flow. And this soul work consists of the transformation of his being …. in the transformation of his selfish love into unselfish neighbourly love …. because I can only work in a person through My spirit who lives a life of love and therefore can also understand the language of eternal love which now expresses itself through the spirit. It is certainly not possible to deny love to all people who pretend to be My servants …. who have made all earthly preparations in order to take up a profession which is officially regarded as ‘pastoral care’. But these people first have to try to free themselves from acquired knowledge, they first have to establish such an intimate bond with Me that this bond will also result in My election to serve Me …. And they must believe that I will give them an answer to every question they ask …. They must therefore consciously listen for an answer and thus make it possible that I now teach them directly, in whatever form this may take …. These bonds with Me, however, are not established through formal prayers or through the performance of ceremonial acts …. but they require a childlike devotion to the father, thus also a childlike faith which also grows out of their life of love. Only then will the calling also come from My side, for then he will be guided and instructed by My spirit, only then will the knowledge he received through study come alive in him, or else he will be regarded as completely ignorant by My spirit …. by Myself …. into knowledge which corresponds to the truth. And only then can he be a suitable servant for Me on earth, a servant who stands up for Me and My name before the world. And since you humans are all able to develop love within yourselves, you are therefore also all called …. But I can only choose those who have made themselves suitable of their own free will. But no-one may count himself as one of My servants to whom ‘working of the spirit’ is alien …. who does not believe that I reveal Myself to people in the word, who denies that I directly address My children on earth …. who therefore does not understand what ‘gifts of the spirit’ are either, who doubts every working of the spirit because his nature or attitude makes it impossible for My spirit to express itself in him. And this shortcoming can be observed in general, especially on the part of those who call themselves My representatives on earth all ‘direct activity of God through His spirit’ is denied, and every ‘chosen one’ is opposed and fought against. And this, too, is a sign of the end time, that only a few people are still of enlightened spirit but that many claim to have been appointed by Me for the office they administer on earth. Yet they can never speak to their fellow human beings in My stead because they do not give Me the opportunity to express Myself through them. Rather, they speak their own words and this will remain without effect or only have a damaging effect, for where I cannot speak My adversary speaks, even if he apparently uses divine words. All these servants are only servants of the world who sought and found honour, fame or an earthly secure existence but to whom the kingdom of God has not yet come close …. who are no closer to their God and creator than countless of their fellow human beings, otherwise they would strive for inner enlightenment with all their might and now also establish contact with Me, which could then also be followed by the calling on My part. Precisely the outpouring of the spirit is still an incomprehensible concept to people and this is the sign that they have not yet awakened their spirit within themselves through love. But in order to be a suitable servant for Me this awakening of the spirit must have preceded, for only then can he receive the instructions from Me, only then can and will he do the work for which I need him …. Only then will he be chosen by Me for a mission which is extremely urgent and which therefore also requires the right co-workers on earth in order to be carried out for the blessing of people who need help in spiritual adversity ….

Amen

The earthly world is the realm of the adversary ….

B.D. 7094 from April 16th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Since the earthly world is My adversary’s kingdom he also has a certain right in it which will not be curtailed by Me but which you humans yourselves can dispute if you don’t bow to his will. For he seeks to influence your will precisely through the world, through everything that is connected with matter …. He seeks to increase your greed for matter, he influences you through matter by presenting it to you so enticingly that you strive to possess it …. I do not deny him his action and his intention because he still has a right to you who once voluntarily followed him to the abyss …. But you can resist him, you can resist all temptations if you are serious about becoming free from him and successfully completing your earthly path …. For he cannot force your will, you can decide for yourselves in utmost freedom, and you should use this freedom correctly, you should recognize the world as his kingdom and seek to escape from him. For I will always help you to do so if it is your earnest will …. And thus you can never release yourselves from the responsibility towards your soul, because you alone decide whether My adversary retains power over you or you become free from this power. He cannot force you, and I likewise do not use coercion, neither towards you nor towards him …. But to the same extent as he tries his arts of seduction on you I am also willing to provide you with gifts of grace, so that it is therefore certainly possible for you to resist him. And if people’s current spiritual state is so low, if their thinking is only materially oriented and all their thoughts and aspirations are only directed towards the attainment of earthly goods, then this is solely attributable to people because they voluntarily comply with My adversary’s wishes although they could nevertheless resist him …. Again and again it is freedom of will which determines every person’s spiritual state, but which is not taken away from him as long as he stays on this earth as a human being. But through his freedom of will, through the misuse of his will, he can get so far that his will is bound again, that he is placed into the state of complete bondage again, which is exceedingly agonizing …. that he himself becomes matter, which he aspired to during his earthly change. Then the adversary will certainly have won the victory by preventing the return to Me, but he will only have delayed it, and the spiritual substance, which he believed to gain for himself through his influence, will again be withdrawn from his power and influence. And that also means weakening of himself again for an infinitely long time. My kingdom is not of this world …. These words should tell you humans most clearly what to think of the earthly world …. if you are at all interested in taking possession of My kingdom one day. But precisely the worldly people, the materialists, are satisfied with the possession of this world, they don’t strive for a spiritual kingdom, for they are already completely under the spell of the lord of this world, even though they don’t accept him as a being by whom they are influenced. For he strikes them with complete blindness, he prevents them from even the faintest light of realization, he lights blind lights for them which make it impossible to see a true light …. And I will not stop his activity, after all, it concerns the free decision of will which the human being is supposed to make on earth …. My means of help, however, could contribute towards a change of will, for they mainly consist of making people aware of the transience of matter, of repeatedly depriving them of their possessions in order to induce them to strive for imperishable possessions …. which is why again and again events will occur in the last days which will very clearly point people to the worthlessness of what the world offers. For I will not refrain from anything that can still help people, I will do everything to save them from the fate of a new banishment, the significance of which people don’t know and also don’t believe when the knowledge is conveyed to them. And therefore much will still happen before the last day comes, which will then also irrevocably decide the fate of all people ….

Amen

The office of Judge …. Responsibility ….

B.D. 7095 from April 17th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

How often have I already crossed your path and touched you gently in order to turn your eyes to Me …. How often have I already noticeably approached you in the shape of strokes of fate or suffering and worries …. And I excluded no-one because I want to win all of you over for Me and thus I also have to use such means which can impel you to Me …. But not all people recognise Me, not all react to My gentle speech in that form …. Others, again, I address through My Word in order to encourage them to make mental contact with Me, but they, too, are free to let My Word penetrate their hearts or pass their ears unheeded. I try to help every individual person and no-one can say that I bypassed him, that he never once in his life received higher guidance, if only he looked with open eyes and a receptive heart at everything he encounters on his path of life. Yet I will never abandon a person as long as he still lives on earth, nevertheless, his freedom of will prevents Me from approaching him so evidently that he must pay attention to Me …. Consequently, he is also at liberty to deny My guidance, an encounter with his God and Creator, and to consider the entire course of earthly life as coincidence or an arbitrarily formed progression …. For this freedom has to be left to him. Thus it is entirely up to his will as to how he evaluates his destiny …. whether he has a positive or negative attitude towards Me. However, once the time arrives when the human being has to justify himself before Me, he will not be able to say that he never received help from Me, instead, he will clearly have to recognise the fact that he did and acknowledge how often I crossed his path and that only his will prevented him from establishing contact with Me …. And no person will be spared this accountability. So even if he lives his earthly life unscrupulously, sooner or later the hour of this accountability before his eternal Judge will come …. For his state of maturity will be in line with his will, and according to his state of maturity will be his fate in eternity, i.e., he will be placed where he belongs in accordance with the law of divine order, he will be ‘judged’, he has to fit in with this law, because time and again the divine order has to be re-established …. which thus is to be understood as My ‘office of Judge’ ….

As long as the human being lives on earth I Am only ever motivated by love to place him into this state of order, and I try this by using all means without, however, applying force. And if I then ‘judge’ the person, that is, his soul, it is only an act of love on My part again, because one day he shall live in divine order again and I truly know the right path which can lead there. And therefore it is particularly serious for those people who live their earthly life without any sense of responsibility towards their soul. Their souls will have to expect a difficult fate, after all, they constantly resisted the gentle influence by their spirit, in other words, they suppressed every Word when I Myself wanted to speak to them through the spirit …. And regardless of how disbelieving a person is and no matter how unspiritual he is thinking …. every human being experiences moments when thoughts about his purpose of life emerge in him, and such thoughts will always cause a certain restlessness in him which he, however, will just as quickly fend off again. Hence the will was active in the wrong direction in moments of such resistance, the soul offered opposition when a gentle voice within expressed itself and urged it to remember its task on earth …. But it could just as easily have yielded to the faint urging and spent more time on its thoughts and merely given Me the opportunity to speak louder to it. And during harsh strokes of fate the human being was also able to take the path to Me, for the knowledge that the human being can pray to his God and Creator is not unknown to him …. The fact that he fails to do so is due to his free will again and therefore a transgression for which he has to accept responsibility. It is for this reason that after My love has been repeatedly rejected My justice must to come to the fore one day …. i.e., the being which does not use the opportunity to return to Me must return to where it belongs according to its maturity …. I must judge according to law and justice, that is, I must establish divine order again, which is and will remain the fundamental law ….

Amen

Do not forfeit your eternal life ….

B.D. 7096 from April 18th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Do not forfeit your eternal life …. Admittedly, one day it will be granted to all of you, but eternities of infinite agony and darkness may still go by when you are in a state of death and entirely without strength and light. And you can prolong this agonizing time indefinitely so that you can indeed speak of ‘eternal damnation’ …. but which I have not given to you, instead you volitionally cause and continue to cause it yourselves if you fail to use your human existence to achieve eternal life for yourselves.

I will not let you be lost forever, because you are My living creations whom I loved from the start and will never cease to love either, but I cannot give life to you prematurely if you yourselves prefer the state of death, if you are unwilling to accept life from Me …. However, you can easily acquire it by merely entrusting yourselves to Me, Who is eternal life Himself ….

And for this purpose earthly life is given you, where you are in possession of intellect and free will, where you can accept instructions concerning your task on earth and thus you need only want to emerge from the state of death. And this time on earth is very short, no great sacrifices are expected of you considering what you shall receive if you use your will correctly. The lifespan of a human being is very brief indeed but it suffices to let you reach the goal ….

Yet your preliminary development took an infinitely long time until you were able to enter the stage of a human being …. And it will take an equally infinitely long time until you will receive the grace again to repeat your test of volition. The length of these infinite times is beyond your human comprehension since your thinking is limited in your imperfect state …. And just as you do not know of this agony, because retrospection of your preliminary development is taken from you during your earthly life, you do not know of the indescribable bliss either which is integral to the concept of ‘eternal life’ …. You do not know of the splendours awaiting you in My kingdom when you decide to finally return to Me …. And neither one nor the other information can be proven to you, since then it would be impossible to make a free decision of will.

But you should believe it even without proof and live your earthly life accordingly, you should not forfeit the bliss of a ‘life’ in My kingdom, you all should include this possibility in your intellectual consideration even if it seems implausible to you …. and you should live such that you need not reproach yourselves when the hour of your departure from this earth has arrived one day. You should also listen to those who talk about such things which are unrelated to the physical world …. And you should reflect on it and imagine how you would fare if they were right ….

There is too much at stake for you humans, it is not just a question of a few years like your lifetime on earth …. it concerns eternal life, it concerns the never-ending state of supreme blissfulness …. a state in light and strength that was yours in the beginning …. And for this eternity in light and strength you only need to renounce utterly worthless things for a very short time, for a ‘moment’ of this eternity …. But you value these things exceptionally high, and hence will forfeit ‘life’ and continue to remain in a state of death for an endless time again ….

And all I can do to help you attain life is to constantly send My messengers to you humans, who warn and remind you on My behalf, who should inspire you to try to arrive at the truth …. who point out to you that I, as the only Truth, enlighten your thoughts, who advise you to establish the connection with Me Myself, so that I can then seize and draw you to Myself …. But you have to take the first step, since I will not force you for the sake of your beatitude. But I will support and strengthen even the weakest will which turns to Me. I caused the entire creation to come into being in order to give you life.

I do not want your death, I want you to live and finally escape your state of death, which has already lasted for an infinite time …. I want to impart My love on you again and offer you a wonderful fate which will never end again …. But I cannot stop you from taking the path into the abyss once more if you volitionally follow My adversary again who once had taken your life and delivered you unto death. I can only ever call to you again ‘Do not forfeit your eternal life …. ‘ but you have to follow My call voluntarily, you have to endeavour to achieve life while you live on earth, and I truly will help you achieve it because I love you ….

Amen

Fighting or serving in earth life ….

B.D. 7097 from April 19th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

No human being’s earthly course will remain without struggle, everyone will have to fight battles, and he should do everything in his power to become and remain a victor …. For only through constant battle will his soul mature, which at the beginning of its embodiment as a human being still harbours a lot of immature spiritual substances, which will affect it all the more the more conscientiously it wants to fulfil its earthly task …. For this is also the battle My adversary wages for these souls, that he tries to influence the still immature spiritual substances to express themselves in his will. And if the soul earnestly desires Me, then it must above all resist those desires which clearly betray My adversary’s influence …. which requires much seriousness and strength but is nevertheless possible with a constant request for My help through the application of strength. Yet every victory in such battles against himself, i.e. against his own desires and vices, will increase his strength and also increasingly deny My adversary access …. for such a victory is at the same time a pushing back of self-love. And since the supply of strength on My part increases, it will now be applied to unselfish loving activity …. and this also means coming closer to Me and detaching oneself from My adversary. And therefore it can also be said that the human being has to fight or serve during his earthly existence …. as service testifies to a battle which has been passed and which has preceded ‘service with love’. Anyone whose inner being is already filled with unselfish love will also have to endure less difficult battles, or he will also be able to resist more easily if he is pressured by My adversary to do his bidding. By virtue of his love he will also be able to bring the still immature substances of his soul and body to maturity more quickly, for through his unselfish love, through his ‘service to his neighbour’, he also secures My presence, and thus I am also the surest protection from the adversary …. Inner battles are still signs of a certain power over you, whereas serving with love already proves your affiliation to Me, which liberates you from his yoke. But by being unkind you show that you still belong to him, and therefore you will then also be exposed to hard battles, you will, as it were, have to use force in order to acquire the kingdom of heaven. But if this is your will then you will truly also receive strength to be victorious over the one who wants to prevent you from entering My kingdom. But woe to those who are indifferent to everything …. who are neither willing to serve with love nor want to do conscious soul work on themselves …. who therefore will rarely only have to fight inner battles but are rather willing to fulfil My adversary’s will …. Although earthly they will often have to endure a less difficult earthly fate, unless I take hold of them with an iron hand by trying to make them think differently through hard blows of fate …. But then this will also mean hard inner battles in which they will have to prove themselves. No victory can be achieved without a fight, impure substances of the soul cannot be purified without a fight, and without a fight the human being will remain on the same level of development if love is not unusually strong in him, that love is and remains the victor …. that My adversary’s attacks and temptations are therefore immediately repelled with the strength of love, which is strength from Me. For love achieves everything, love will also easily master the purification of the still immature spirit, love will only ever want to be of service, and a loving person establishes unity with Me of his own accord, and therefore he has a far more powerful lord and protector at his side than the one who would like to ascend to lord. But every battle you pass will also strengthen your strength of love, therefore you need only ever appeal to Me for an influx of strength and this will result in the ability to master all passions, faults or vices and now, instead of satisfying self-love, to carry out selfless works of love …. For this is your task, your aim on earth, to shape your nature into love …. which My adversary will always want to prevent and which requires a constant battle on your part. But you can be and remain victorious in this battle if you call upon Me in Jesus Christ to strengthen your will, to give you strength and to release you from the one who still keeps you bound ….

Amen

Everything has meaning and purpose …. Pests …. Weeds ….

B.D. 7098 from April 20th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Nothing in creation exists without purpose and goal …. But you cannot always recognise the purpose of a work of creation and often ask yourselves why one thing or another has been created, since, as far as you understand, it does not appear to serve any purpose. However, the very explanation should be sufficient for you that everything is ‘God’s emanated strength’ which one day should become active again, but that the effectiveness of this ‘strength’ varies considerably because its distance from God also varies considerably. And ‘distance’ is comparable to ‘opposition’ ….

Thus there is spiritual essence …. God’s once emanated strength …. whose opposition, in spite of a very lengthy process of development in the law of compulsion, has barely diminished. However, it continues its process of development in accordance with divine order and therefore constantly adopts new external shapes which allow for a gradual increase of activity, but again, this activity corresponds to the resistance of the spirit. Consequently it performs no obvious service for people or other works of creation but it nevertheless serves indirectly …. You will understand this when you think of the pests in the animal and plant kingdom, of all the vermin or poisonous plants …. just everything you think is useless or harmful in the creation of nature …. But all these organisms are carriers of divine strength which will also give the spiritual substances therein some opportunity for purification …. And at the same time these inconspicuous works of creation serve to sustain other creations again …. partly as food for larger living organisms, partly as fertilizer to nourish the plant world’s soil, although you humans cannot observe such interactions …. And again, they can serve the human being’s spiritual development which also requires many tests for a person to prove himself, be it in all manner of trials for patience or in a sensible attitude towards everything brought into existence by God’s will.

Nothing exists without meaning and purpose; whether the human being recognises the meaning and purpose of every creation is not significant but his faith in God’s wisdom, love and power should give him a certain amount of reverence for everything that has been created or he will doubt God’s wisdom, love and power. All material forms serve as a great mercy for God’s once emanated flow of strength …. for the dissolved substances of the original spirits …. because they were seized by God’s love and thus placed into an external form …. And although the various external forms demonstrate their opposition to God …. God has nevertheless seized the spirit in order to guide it to its gradual ascent in the law of compulsion. That itself should teach you humans to view every work of creation with spiritual eyes, and you should bear in mind that God truly knows many things which are still hidden from you humans, hence you should not judge prematurely by criticising God’s creations, which you are really not entitled to do. Because once you believe that creation is God’s work, every work of creation has to be beyond doubt to you as well. And then you will learn to behold with loving eyes that which aroused aversion and dislike in you until now …. which is not to say that you should help it contrary to its natural function.

For as soon as it proves to be damaging you may proceed against it and end its process of development, because it is God’s will that these creations do not have a long lifespan. Hence you are entitled to shorten their lifespan, so that the spiritual substances can achieve a certain level of maturity in ever new external forms and be permitted to fulfil serving functions as soon as their former opposition has lessened, as soon as the spirit essence has been sufficiently calmed to be of willing service and thus continues its gradual ascent. And you humans should know that even you yourselves, i.e. your soul, hides such substances within itself which have had to cover the abovementioned path …. For everything your eyes are able to see is within you …. But God’s love, wisdom and power knows how to guide everything into the right order for He only pursues one goal which He will surely achieve one day ….

Amen

Faith in God's presence …. light from eternity ….

B.D. 7099 from April 21st 1958, taken from Book No. 75

From every spiritual instruction you can gather that I want to give you light, that I want to guide your thinking correctly and make you willing to fulfil your earthly task …. For since you are without knowledge at the beginning of your embodiment as a human being, knowledge must therefore also be made accessible to you, otherwise it would be unreasonable of Me to demand something from you which you could not possibly fulfil. Every person is given little knowledge but it is up to him to increase this knowledge, for higher knowledge can only be imparted to him under certain conditions. And this is already a sign that the human being is making an effort to fulfil his earthly task. But the brighter it becomes in him, the further he progresses in knowledge, the more he detaches himself from darkness, from the realm of My adversary, who flees a light because it proves Me Myself and My presence. You must therefore first be convinced that I am already present to you when light comes to you in the form of My word …. The conviction of My presence will then also determine your whole being, you will attain inner peace, you will not feel powerless, you will feel a sense of secure safety and thus no longer fear anything, irrespective of whether it approaches you from outside or from within, whether My adversary tries to oppress you through intermediaries or whether you yourselves are still occasionally afflicted by passions or weaknesses which trigger mental battles in you …. Unconditional faith in My presence restores your inner peace and also gives you the strength to resist temptations from outside …. And you should always have this unconditional faith who are taught by My spirit …. The light you receive should also let you recognize the ‘light from eternity’, Which so obviously reveals Itself to you. You could truly consider yourselves overjoyed by this evidence of My presence, you would not need to live through anxious hours, you would not need to doubt My everlasting loving care for you and for the help you ask for yourselves. For My presence should be such certain proof to you that you belong to My own who are in My constant care. But you still think too little of My ‘presence’ and yet you experience My working on and in you again every day, which is only possible if I can be present to you …. But you could still make far more use of My presence, for I only want you to make conscious contact with Me, that you thus fully consciously recognize Me Myself as working within you and that, out of this realization, you now also consort with Me confidentially, that you no longer live a separate life but constantly know Me next to you …. And this certainty will have a wonderful effect on you, you will radiate peace, serenity, a constant willingness to help will fill you, and you will no longer let yourselves be distracted by anything that happens around you and in the world. You absolutely have to let this blissful certainty arise in you, for only then will you also possess a living faith; all isolation from Me will be lifted, you will be My own again as you were in the beginning. Then you will also have become free from the power which has held you captive until now. And it should be easy for you in particular to be and remain aware of My presence, who are taught by Me and thus may experience a visible evidence of My love, which is possible through My presence. I can only address you when I Myself am in you …. You would never hear My voice without My presence, and thus My spirit would never be able to work in you either, which is nevertheless My share and will remain forever. “I will remain with you until the end of the world ….” Could I promise you My presence more clearly than through these words of Mine? And when it becomes light in you, when you attain realization, then this is always the evidence of a bond between you and Me, which you certainly have to establish yourselves but which is then also so certain that you can establish the most intimate relationship with Me, your God and father from eternity …. Believe firmly and unshakably in My presence and you will experience for yourselves how much easier your earthly path now is …. For you need only entrust everything that moves you to Me and I will take care of it for you, because you believe in My help as well as you are able to believe in My presence. You would never be able to grasp this if I had not already given you a degree of realization, if some light had not already illuminated your soul, which just took its origin in Me Myself. And therefore it is impossible for a person in spiritual darkness to grasp the immense love of a God and father Who approaches people Himself in order to speak to them …. But where a small light is already kindled it can be intensified until finally all darkness disappears from the human being’s heart because I Myself have taken abode in it …. because I Myself am therefore present to the person who has received a light from Me …. For I Myself am the light from eternity …. So where there is light, there must also irrevocably be I Myself …. and where I am there is no more cause for worry and suffering, for faith in My presence is also the surest guarantee that I Myself regulate everything in a way that is good and beneficial for the soul ….

Amen

Is life on earth an end in itself or the means to an end ….

B.D. 7100 from April 23rd 1958, taken from Book No. 75

The life of a human being on earth would have no real reason if it was merely an end in itself …. With other words, you humans would find it difficult to find a real reason for it because you can clearly see the vast differences between human destinies and would constantly question the purpose of a hard, sorrowful, miserable life. Yet you could find an immediate answer if you looked at life not as an end in itself but as the means to an end. If every person’s fate were the same, if every human being’s life consisted of harmony, no problems, pleasures and worldly happiness, hardly differing from other people’s lives, then you could certainly believe that there is no deeper purpose to earthly life than that of life itself. But as soon as you seriously think about it you will not be satisfied with this explanation …. you will search for a deeper reason and will certainly find it because it only requires a question on your part in order to give you an answer. And all human beings should ask themselves this question …. For it really does not show intelligence or intellectual activity if a person is satisfied to experience life merely as a whim of the Creator. Every person who claims to be intelligent would hardly use his time and effort making entirely useless things …. nor would he want to regard himself as an entirely useless creature with the sole purpose of supporting himself …. without being able to determine the length of his existence …. Is earthly life an end in itself or the means to an end? ….

It could be very beneficial for someone lacking in faith to raise this question. You humans are by no means expected to have blind faith, for such blind faith is of no value. But you can use your intelligence, you can consider every aspect of what you are required to believe. Serious thought can lead you to an acceptable result, and you can rest assured that such mental effort will be blessed if it is applied to achieve greater insight …. to the knowledge of what is still hidden from you humans but which need not remain hidden from you. To discover the purpose of earthly life as a human being is one such insight, since it belongs to the region of the unprovable, but it can nevertheless be gratifying to a person if he genuinely wants it. Because as soon as he realises that human life is merely the means to an end, increasingly more questions will arise in him. He will try to discover the true purpose and then also become aware of his own task, he will no longer be satisfied with just worrying about earthly life, he will learn to look at everything as determined by purpose …. and then he will find and pursue a spiritual attitude which will completely satisfy him ….

The conscious life of a human being only begins when he understands the purpose of earthly life. Because then his thoughts will aim towards a goal which he will try to achieve. Only then will he himself endeavour to start improving his soul; only then earthly activities will move into the background, although he also will be able to master his earthly life with God’s help, Who will bless this approach to life and repeatedly make new aspects accessible to him which will make him think and lead him to an ascent. An earthly life in the awareness of purpose can never be lived in vain; it has to result in spiritual success, whereas a person looking at life as an end in itself will not acquire any spiritual advantage. As soon as he is willing to love, questions about the real purpose of life on earth will also arise and then his thinking will change too. However, if he is unwilling to love …. which is usually the case with those who have not yet recognised the purpose of life …. one cannot speak of higher development, the person’s soul remains as it was at the beginning of his embodiment, life on earth will have been in vain and then the immense blessing, which could have resulted in the highest reward, will be lost …. But every human being can come to the realisation that he lives on earth for a purpose because every human being has the ability to think, because he can weigh one thought against another and is therefore able to form his own opinion.

And on serious reflection he would definitely come to that insight, because he can recognise a certain purpose of lawful order within the creation of nature which he would also have to apply to himself …. or he would have a very limited capacity of thought, an attitude which could hardly be called intelligent. The human being can come to the realisation that there is a purpose to earthly life or he could not be held responsible for how he has used this earthly life. People who do not want to recognise a purpose of earthly life in fact deny this accountability, but enough evidence in the creation of nature can be found that no natural law, no divine order, can be trespassed without consequences. Thus the human being also has to accept a certain order for himself; he too has to feel part of this law of order. Thus he cannot arbitrarily shape his life without any responsibility towards God, Who created everything, but he has to try to support the law of divine order. He has to acknowledge a Lawgiver, and then he will also feel responsible to this Lawgiver. If this Lawgiver is not acknowledged, then the human being will not feel responsible to a Lord; then he is clearly still subject to a God-opposing power, which always tries to influence a person such that his earthly life will be to no avail, that any belief in a purpose and aim of earthly existence fades away, so that this power can hold on to him again for an infinitely long time ….

Amen

Awareness of the presence of God ….

B.D. 7101 from April 24th 1958, taken from Book No. 75

Anyone who has once become aware of My love and grace will never fall away from Me again, for this awareness indissolubly binds him to Me …. This awareness is at the same time a light of realization which also shows him the kingdom of darkness in all its horrors and he will always push more towards Me, Whom he has recognized as the light of eternity. To be aware of My love and grace is also a sign of the most intimate bond with Me where My flow of love touches the human being such that he feels My presence, so that he now knows Me with him and he will never ever lose this awareness of My nearness again. You can all certainly consider these words and make an effort to enter the blissful state, but you will only truly understand them when you have experienced this blissful feeling yourselves, when My love has taken hold of you in order to never ever leave you again …. which, however, does not depend on Me but on yourselves. I can only be where there is love, and therefore you will only feel Me as present when you yourselves let love flare up into bright embers. Your unselfish love for your neighbour will be rewarded in a truly heavenly way, for to possess My love is something immensely blissful which has no comparison on earth. And then you will not be able to understand that you have lived without Me for such a long time, you will consider every day as lost where the awareness of My love and grace, of My presence, has not yet made you happy …. But then you will also understand why people full of love endure everything that is done to them by the world with equanimity and composure …. why even suffering and illness do not depress them unusually, why they seem to have become insensitive to that which completely upsets their fellow human being and only increases his degree of suffering …. For I Myself let My sun of love appear in the human being’s heart, and in its light everything is transfigured and it no longer frightens the human being. He only sees Me and can no longer avert his gaze from Me because I fill his whole heart …. This is a spiritual image, it is only felt by his soul which is able to look with spiritual eyes and what it sees fills and determines its whole feeling, thinking and wanting …. You humans don’t know the effect of a life of love but only this can be assured to you again and again, that all blissful feelings, all unusual feats of strength and a blissful light are the result of such a life of love …. that you can therefore only feel true bliss in a state of love and that you can therefore also only unite with Me Myself through a life of love and may now also taste all delights of this close bond with Me, which always prove My presence to you. And once you have only been allowed to consciously enjoy My presence you will no longer walk alone on earth, for then you will no longer be able to separate yourselves from the one Whom you recognized as your father of eternity, Whose love made you come into being. But then your transformation into love will also have taken place, then your return to Me will have been accomplished, then you will be on your way to Me, to the father’s house …. Then you are again what you were in the beginning …. you have become My children and will remain so forever ….

Amen
