"No man's eye has ever seen it …."

B.D. 7282 from February 14th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

No man’s eye has ever seen and no man’s ear ever heard what I have prepared for those who love Me …. But it is certain that I have unimagined glories in store for you, only you may not take a glimpse into My kingdom of glory during your earthly life because then you would no longer be able to live, because you would no longer be able to fulfil your earthly task in freedom of will. But you may always remember My promise and know that I love you and want to make you blissfully happy. You should know that your thinking is only ever limited, that you cannot even imagine the true heavenly kingdom, for nothing on earth would bear comparison with the glories which await you there when you can leave the earthly kingdom in a garment of light in order to enter your true home, with which earth could not bear the slightest comparison even if you imagined everything to a far more glorious extent. They are incomparable structures of the most glorious beauty, they are spiritual creations which make you exceedingly happy …. They are things which you have never seen before and which only appear to you spiritually as soon as you have attained the degree of maturity to be able to see spiritually. But one thing is certain, that you will now start to live more than ever …. that, looking back, you will not be able to comprehend that you once loved the world and found worldly things desirable, and you will be happy that the world did not keep you bound, otherwise you would never be able to behold this kingdom of glory. If you were able to anticipate something of the glories in earthly life or temporarily catch a glimpse of them then you would also strive for this kingdom with all your might, but you would only ever be determined by self-love and never by pure love for Me and your neighbour, and your earthly life would not be able to bring you perfection, which nevertheless has to be achieved and is also possible without the human being being able to form a clear picture of what beatitude will consist of one day …. But My word shall suffice you humans, My promise, which holds out the prospect of undreamed-of glories to you if you live according to My will. And such an unprovable promise does not force your will, for only faith gives it the right to truth, and for the believer it will also be fulfilled but only after the entrance into the kingdom of the beyond. For this reason it is also pointless to try to imagine images of the souls’ stay in the spiritual kingdom, for all ideas are only ever based on earth and its possessions which, however, cannot be used as a comparison for that kingdom and lack all understanding for things in the spiritual kingdom of light. Therefore be satisfied with the words: “What no man’s eye has ever seen and what no man’s ear has ever heard, that I have prepared for those who love Me ….” Unfathomable and unspeakably glorious things await you, for My love wants to make My children happy and prepare for them an exceedingly blessed fate …. And you should all strive for such a fate, but only love for Me or for your brothers should ever motivate you to live according to My will, never self-love, the desire for the glories of the world of the beyond, for then this fate will never be granted to you, because only pure, selfless love will earn you such a high degree of maturity that you will be able to occupy My kingdom in all its glory …. that your eye will behold and your ear will hear what you would never have dreamed of before, because all My promises will come true, because My word is eternal truth ….

Amen

Dress of light …. eager soul work and unexpected end ….

B.D. 7283 from February 15th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

Again and again you will also be told that you should not neglect your soul’s work because you don’t have much time left. Again and again you are admonished to still use every day for your soul’s salvation, for none of you knows the day and hour of your departure, and none of you still has very much time to wait for, because the end comes as a surprise to all of you, but many of you don’t know whether you will still experience the end or whether you will already be called away from earth beforehand. You don’t take such words seriously, which proves that you don’t believe in them …. And yet you should reckon with the fact that every earthly life can only be short, which is proven to you every day by what happens around you. One day you will bitterly regret every day you left unused in order to create an advantage for your soul in the spiritual kingdom, for they are useless days since you don’t do any work for your soul, since you don’t make an effort to do good works which alone will follow you into eternity. It is truly of utmost urgency that you write these words into your heart that you should work while it is still day, because night will irrevocably fall upon you when you can no longer work …. And you could still perform so many works of love that you could truly acquire a degree of maturity for your soul which would ensure your entry into supreme bliss. You could acquire riches for your soul with which you can then work in the spiritual kingdom …. you could truly create a garment of light for yourselves and then need not fear the entrance into the kingdom of the beyond; but you don’t do it because you don’t believe that your earthly way of life will one day have an effect after your physical death. And therefore you are told again and again that you should not neglect to help your soul gain a garment of light which you can only create on earth through diligent soul work, through a life according to God’s will, through fulfilling God’s commandments of love, through constantly fighting and combating the weaknesses and cravings which drag your soul down and do not allow it to ascend into higher spheres once it becomes free from the bondage of the body. Then it can still be bound to matter by its desire for it, and then it will not find a blissful abode in the beyond but will still have to suffer for a long time from the desire for earthly-material goods, it will not be able to rise from those spheres in which it dwelled during its earthly life, and its state will be pitiful and unhappy. And you could prevent this, you could ascend into bright heights after your death if you took the admonitions and warnings to heart, if you respected yourselves and wanted to do everything in order to discard faults and weaknesses and to dissolve the dross by which the soul is and will remain enveloped if you humans lack the firm will to carry out soul work. You only need to live in love …. and everything else will then take care of itself, for as soon as selfish love has been overcome and changed into unselfish neighbourly love, all weaknesses and cravings will also fall away, and the soul will become louder and clear, because the rays of love can break through and the soul is now assured of a garment of light, so that it then truly need not fear death, even if it suddenly and unexpectedly approaches it and its earthly life is prematurely ended. For as soon as the human being carries out the work on his soul he has also recognized the meaning and purpose of earthly life, and his soul has reached a degree of love which now enables it to enter the kingdom of light when the hour of departure from this earth has come ….

Amen

Request for strengthening of the will ….

B.D. 7284 from February 16th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

My adversary will not be able to prevent a person from taking the path to the cross, for his will already limits the adversary’s power. Thus the will is first, and once this will has turned towards the cross then the adversary has to step back and he can no longer prevent the human being from taking the path to the cross. But the will is free, the adversary cannot influence the will, just as I Myself do not force the human being’s will to take the right direction. But your will is often very weakened, it cannot quite make up its mind yet, and then it remains under the adversary’s power. Therefore, let your first prayer be the request for the strengthening of your will, which I will certainly grant because I have acquired the strengthened will for you in Jesus Christ through My crucifixion. The strengthening of will is extremely important for the ascent development of your soul, and you can already secure the grace of a strengthened will through a silent supplication, and then you will also take the path to the cross, you will consciously turn to Jesus Christ and ask Him for forgiveness of your sins and for your redemption from the enemy and adversary …. And your redemption will be as certain as My love is for all of you who once came forth from Me. But in order to give your will the right direction you also need to know about the divine redeemer Jesus Christ …. And therefore it is necessary that the glad tidings of your saviour and redeemer are proclaimed to you, that you are informed of His act of love and mercy and of the reason for His crucifixion for the whole of humanity. But for My part it will also be ensured that all people will be informed of what has happened for the sake of sinful humanity …. People’s gaze will be directed towards the cross so that all those who are unredeemed, who are still in sin and have not found forgiveness, will take the path to the cross. All people should know that they only need to take the path to the cross in order to become free from their guilt, in order to be saved from all misery of the soul. And the knowledge of the divine redeemer and His act of mercy will also strengthen people’s will to go to Him themselves or at least to send a prayer to Him beforehand that He may strengthen their will, which again and again falls back into weakness without the help of Jesus Christ …. But then the adversary will have become powerless, he will no longer be able to prevent him from going to where peace and redemption beckon to him with his eyes fixed on the cross, to where his guilt must also be carried if he wants to be released from it and completely detach himself from the adversary’s power. Therefore, it is solely up to the human being’s will how he will relate to Jesus Christ’s act of salvation, and no human being can say that he was prevented from taking the path to the cross himself …. He cannot be hindered if he himself wants it and has his eyes fixed on the cross of Christ. The adversary lacks the power to do so because the human being’s will is free. But his rightly directed will will earn him the highest and best: redemption from sin and death …. And therefore you humans should only ever ask that your will be rightly directed and that I may strengthen this will, and this request will truly be granted to you …. For it is spiritually directed and only testifies to Me that you are willing to let yourselves be redeemed and that you only need protection and strength against your adversary …. And your will will be granted, it will be strengthened through Jesus Christ, Who laid down His life for this purpose in order to purchase a strengthened will for you, in order to help you to become free from your tormentor ….

Amen

God's endless love can be recognized by every human being ….

B.D. 7285 from February 17th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

You shall only become aware of My infinite love for you, and then you will also ignite the spark of love within yourselves which will become a flame and strike Me again. And that is all I want to achieve, that love will ignite in you which will then unite us eternally again, just as unkindness once separated you from Me. And the fact that I love you could become evident to you again and again if you were to look at everything around you and also your whole earthly life in thoughts of Me, Who directs your destiny, Who created everything that delights your eyes and your senses …. as far as it is not My adversary’s means to chain you to the earthly-material world. But you can see My love for you everywhere if only you look around you with open eyes. If My love did not keep you then you would be surrounded by unimaginable chaos, for your earthly life would already lack all order, since I must rule by natural law even over those whose will is completely turned away from Me. They would have supremacy and destroy everything that is still meant to serve their fellow human beings for upward development. My love, however, puts a stop to them and prevents them by natural law from encroaching, which would be extremely harmful to all of you. But you humans often don’t recognize My rule and activity when it is openly evident, because you take everything for granted and accept comforts as a matter of course. And yet, it is love which applies to you, My living creations, whom I want to make My children and who therefore shall return My love to Me so that I can unite with them as it was in the beginning. My love for you has not yet diminished and will also not cease eternally …. Yet you will not feel it as long as you are without love yourselves and do not open yourselves to My illumination of love. But once you become aware of My great love for you, then the ice around your heart will melt and then My illumination of love will have taken effect …. You begin to reciprocate My love, you ignite the flame of love within yourselves and the now flaring fire seeks to unite with the fire of love from eternity. You humans should only pay attention to how often a merciful fate saves you from unusual sorrow and suffering, you should pay more attention to everything beautiful and happy in your life and gratefully remember Him Who allows you to experience it …. You should pay attention to every smallest event in your life which reveals a wise guidance of your heavenly father, and you should know that nothing happens without My will or My permission, that I constantly remember you and let everything happen to you out of My love as it is beneficial for you …. You should know that only My love ever speaks out of all events which affect you …. And if you are now fully aware of My love then the hot feeling of love for Me will also ignite in you, then you will want to make contact with Me, you will enter the circuit of love and allow yourselves to be illuminated with the blissful feeling of resting on the father’s heart and being well sheltered in His love. And then I will also be able to have a direct effect on you, and My love will give you further evidence which you will only be able to experience in heartfelt union with Me ….

Amen

Exression of the spirit only possible through the working of love ….

B.D. 7286 from February 18th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

Every spiritual thought is an expression of the spirit within you, otherwise all your thinking would only be earthly directed. But the spiritual spark in you constantly seeks the bond with the father-spirit, and it will always try to influence you by mentally affecting you. But its influence will only ever affect the spiritual kingdom, thus it will likewise turn your thinking towards this kingdom if it finds no resistance in your will. For the latter can also fully turn to the world, then it will reject every spiritual thought, and the spirit cannot express itself to the human being …. And very clear boundaries can be drawn: The more the human being thinks of himself, that is, is concerned about his own well-being, the more purely earthly thoughts will fill him and the spirit will be denied its activity. But if the human being thinks of his neighbour who needs his help, then the spirit will penetrate and be able to convey such thoughts to the human being which flow out of the spiritual kingdom and also lead him to the spiritual kingdom again. For then love will have awakened in the human being and thus also the spirit, which will always express itself for the blessing of the human being’s soul. The spiritual spark, which is part of the eternal father-spirit, is the spark of love which has to be ignited in the human being in order to become effective. This spark of love slumbers in every human being, but it is up to the human being himself to ignite it, and thus the human being himself must awaken the spirit in himself to life …. He must practice love and let the spark of love flare up into an ever brighter flame …. he must perform works of neighbourly love, and to the same extent he will also give his spirit the opportunity to express itself. And what the spirit now gives him with such expressions is spiritual wealth, they are goods which originate from the spiritual kingdom and also follow the human being into the spiritual kingdom when he leaves this earth …. The flame of love illuminates the human being’s inner being and he will now become seeing and knowing, he will learn to recognize what was previously unknown to him, he will gain a correct image of the creator and His creation, of his own relationship with this creator and of the task which was given to the human being for his earthly existence. But such knowledge will not be dead knowledge, knowledge which was only supplied to him from outside but which does not spread light within him. Such knowledge will be truly alive and give him brightest light which he can no longer lose for ever because it was imparted to him by the spirit within himself. For the spirit is part of the father-spirit from eternity, and therefore it is also familiar with all secrets of creation, it knows about the eternal plan of salvation, it knows about God’s reign and activity in His kingdom …. He knows everything and can therefore also inform the human being who causes him to express himself, who, through a life of love, makes contact with the spirit within himself such that he can then be constantly guided and taught and only ever hears what the spirit from God announces to him. But this process can never take place in a person who only loves himself and the world …. The spiritual spark is still buried in him and it can happen that he has no opportunity to express himself until the end of his life. Then earthly life will have been lived in vain by the soul, which will not be able to register any spiritual progress because it lacks love. For even the slightest activity of love would awaken the spirit to life, but where selfish love predominates the spirit slumbers, and it cannot influence the soul in any way to accept the thoughts it receives. A person who only loves himself and the world resists all spiritual thoughts, which will indeed always push their way in but never force the person to accept them. Love alone brings about the change of will and nature, and only love gives the spirit the opportunity to express itself. And without the working of the spirit no human being will attain realization, without the working of the spirit no human being will travel the path to the father, because the father alone draws him upwards through His spirit, with Whom he is eternally and inseparably united, if only the human being of his own free will seeks this bond ….

Amen

Vineyard work after the event …. preparation for this ….

B.D. 7287 from February 19th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

A great deal of work will await you who are active in My vineyard, for the time still lies ahead of you when you will have to use all your strength in order to do justice to the great onslaught which will befall you. For many will demand clarification from you, many will want to know where to look for God when the great event has befallen you which only a few will be able to explain properly. And these few, who previously received clarification from Me Myself, will now have to speak and pass on their knowledge and explain everything to their fellow human beings such that they will be understood and that a wise and loving ruler can also be recognized from all events, in Whom they believe and to Whom they should call for help. There will be great need and therefore many a heart will be open for sermons of this kind …. Individual people will hunger for the word of God, through which alone they will receive enlightenment and which they will also acknowledge as correct knowledge which corresponds to the truth. But this work in the vineyard of the lord will require much good will, much patience and perseverance, for just as many people will be found who will talk back to you and raise so many objections that it will be difficult for you to answer them …. Yet just one thought of Me, one request for My support is already enough that I will now speak through you Myself and you need not worry how you will fulfil your task …. I will put the words into your mouths so that all will receive their answer as it is successful for the individual …. for the believers as well as for those who speak against you. They, too, will be unable to reply to you, they will feel defeated and think about it themselves, if they are not already so deeply in My adversary’s grip that he will have the upper hand and people will leave you unwillingly or incite against you …. Then let them go, but take care of those who seek you, whom I also want to address through you Myself, to whom I want to bring My word, so that light will arise in them after the deep darkness before. There is still a time of rest for you where you, My servants on earth, can still carry out your vineyard work calmly and serenely; but it will give way to a time where it is important to seize every opportunity to banish the great, mental, spiritual misery which already lies in the fact that hardly anyone is still able to believe in a God of love, wisdom and omnipotence and that this very unbelief means far greater misery for people because they don’t know where to turn in their adversity. And helping them to believe again is a great work of love and mercy which you, who receive My word directly from My hand, should carry out. For you are qualified to give your fellow human beings the right enlightenment, you can kindle a light for them, and you can give them comfort and hope that they will be guided by Me Myself if only they call upon Me Myself for help …. And your word will not fall on stony ground, for through My intervention the ground …. human hearts …. is already prepared for the reception of a seed, which you will now be able to scatter abundantly wherever it may be. Then you will also be able to openly come forward and pretend to be My messengers, for no-one will stop you, because the adversity is so great that every blade of hope will be seized and people will willingly listen when you preach about My love, wisdom and might. But it will not be long before you will be forbidden your mission, for soon My adversary’s vassals will start to counteract and they will take action against you with great severity, which is why you should then withdraw with great wisdom so as not to endanger and tear down everything you have managed to build up so far. But I will be with My blessing with all who listen to you and are not hostile towards you. But prepare yourselves for this time and gather strength, which you can only draw from My word, for you will need it for everything that is to come, which is planned in love and wisdom and therefore should and can only serve all of you for perfection, for the attainment of the degree of maturity already on earth, if you only recognize Me Myself and My rule and activity in everything, which is only ever based on My love for you ….

Amen

Knowledge of sacrifice of the cross in the deep ….

B.D. 7288 from February 20th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

For all souls I shed My blood on the cross of Golgotha …. If this comes to the souls’ attention in the darkness, then it is also a ray of hope for those souls, a blade to which they cling if they have the will to be delivered from their torment and to come out of their hardship which is becoming unbearable for them. For even in the deepest darkness light is sometimes brought in when messengers of light descend into the depths and inform the souls that the saviour and redeemer Jesus Christ also died for them on the cross …. Although these messengers of light come veiled, they appear to the souls of darkness as like souls who have come to their senses and consider a way out for themselves, who then remember Him of Whom they heard in the earthly world but in Whom they never believed …. And now eager debates are being conducted, mostly against Me Who accomplished the act of salvation in the man Jesus, for they are all still under My adversary’s control who does not want to allow him to lose one of those souls. But the messengers of light are untouchable for him, and their arguments nevertheless again and again convince individuals who look for a way out and entrust themselves to those messengers who suggest guiding them, and then they will always be led to where bright light shines, where their knowledge is increased, and they now start to draw hope because they feel at ease in the circle of light but also know that they themselves first have to acquire the right to be allowed to stay in the area through their attitude. As long as they inwardly resist, they cannot yet be considered to have been released from the darkness, it will strike them again and again and again put them into great torment. Yet they do not forget the speeches of those messengers once they have taken part in them and responded to them, they nevertheless call them to them again and again through their thoughts, and their desire to be able to enter the circle of light again and to hear more of Jesus Christ, Who is also said to have redeemed them and thus can also release them from their torment, grows ever greater. This is the most important thing for the souls in darkness, that the knowledge of Jesus Christ and His crucifixion is brought to them, if it was unknown to them so far. But usually only a small reference to Him will awaken their memory, providing the desire has already awakened in them to be redeemed from darkness. If they don’t have this desire then all knowledge of My sacrifice on the cross is far away from them, then the messengers of light of love won’t help either, then they are still completely under My adversary’s control, and then much intercession is necessary to make these hardened souls think differently, for without Jesus Christ there is no salvation from darkness for them. In the last days before the end the light beings are constantly working for those souls in darkness who want to help them to leave the deepest depths before the end so that they will not fall prey to the state of new banishment, which even surpasses their present stay in terms of torment. And your prayer for these souls contributes a great deal that their hardship will diminish and they will open up when helpful beings make a suggestion to help them to freedom. The cross of Christ lets its light shine everywhere so that the souls will remember more and more what it is all about …. But only the being’s free will makes it possible for the blessings of the act of salvation to pour over the souls, for free will must be willing to call upon Me Myself in Jesus Christ for salvation from the abyss. And the soul will only do so when it has received teachings which have awakened and strengthened its faith in My sacrifice on the cross, so that it now sincerely appeals to be redeemed by Jesus Christ from its torment, which torments the soul until this decision has matured in it to turn to Me in Jesus Christ itself …. But then it will be lifted up from darkness into light, i.e. it will no longer need to enter the dark places, it will be accepted into the circle of light seekers and be filled with light and in deepest gratitude lend a hand itself to help and save its brothers with whom it had to share the darkness …. And such a soul will also succeed in much redemptive work, for in its urge for love it will now eagerly endeavour to bring the gospel to those souls as well, to convince them of the loving and merciful work of the one Who shed His blood on the cross in order to save all souls from spiritual death ….

Amen

Voluntary return guarantees bliss ….

B.D. 7289 from February 21st 1959, taken from Book No. 77

From Me is all salvation, all light and all bliss. He who has Me has everything, and his existence is only a song of praise and thanksgiving for his lord, Who has become his father out of pure love. And therefore all beingness is still outside of beatitude as long as it has not yet found its way back to Me, as long as it has not yet returned to its origin. For the being was created in all bliss, and it could also have eternally remained in this state of bliss if it had not voluntarily turned away from Me itself. Yet I allowed it its freedom and did not prevent it from taking its own path which led far away from Me. And therefore all happiness has left it, it has become a being which has had to torment itself for eternities and is not released from these torments as long as it has not taken the path back to Me. Yet with Me its state of torment will be changed, with Me it will find complete bliss again, with Me there is only love, light and strength and freedom …. An infinitely blissful fate awaits you, and you humans on earth don’t believe it or you would do nothing else but acquire this glorious fate for the purpose of which you live on earth. For this reason, however, such a fate can always be offered to you without you being compelled to start on the path of return, for such a teaching is far more likely to meet with unbelief than with profound faith with the result of inspiring a purposeful life, for people are so distant from everything spiritual because they are still so distant from Me themselves and therefore are hardly touched by teachings which concern the spiritual kingdom, eternity and the fate of every soul. Such teachings only echo in their ears, they hear it but it does not penetrate their hearts, and they change their way of life even less so that it brings them close to the right goal. They do not reshape themselves, i.e. their nature, so that it is only pure love and thus this would already be equal to the return to Me, Who can only be found again on the path of love. And even though I repeatedly describe the glories of My kingdom to you, as far as it is possible for you to grasp, you still don’t let My words have an effect on you because success is not earthly visible or tangible to you and therefore all the worldly treasures of value are far more likely to tempt you to strive for them than the treasures which one day await you in the spiritual kingdom. And yet, I cannot do more than inform you of My kingdom and its bliss through My word …. I can only instruct you again and again through My spirit and admonish you to live appropriately on earth; I can only make My word accessible to you, which is purest truth, and you must now evaluate it yourselves by letting it penetrate your hearts and acting accordingly …. And the spiritual treasures will now reveal themselves to you, you will discover spiritual abilities within yourselves and by means of these also start and cover the return path to Me more easily and effortlessly; you will now already begin to understand what is meant by ‘spiritual treasures’ and that they are far more valuable than the treasures the world can ever offer you. For the latter are only sham goods, without permanence, without value for eternity, but they are able to blind your eyes so that you do not see the treasures which are already offered to you on earth from the spiritual kingdom …. For the glories will only await you on the other side when you have entered My kingdom in light and freedom …. Only then will you sing praise and thanks to Me, only then will you be receptive to the light and strength which now shine towards you and make you blissfully happy. But first you must muster the will yourselves to approach Me again, Whom you once voluntarily left …. you must believe My words that I love you and long for your return, and then you must desire to hear Me Myself …. And truly, you will reach the goal, you will enter the kingdom where I Myself am, and you will be unspeakably happy in My presence in light and strength and freedom ….

Amen

Overcoming the gulf in the beyond: Jesus Christ ….

B.D. 7290 from February 22nd 1959, taken from Book No. 77

A vast gulf still exists in the spiritual world between those who kept their distance from Me during their life on earth and those who had already found Me and were able to enter the spiritual kingdom in a garment of light. They can certainly see the former and ascertain their miserable state, but the former are staying in a realm where they can see nothing else but themselves or like-minded spiritual beings whose constant discord and dispute among each other poisons their existence and prevents them from feeling any kind of happiness. Nor will these souls ever be able to see their loved ones again if these have already departed with a higher degree of maturity; instead, they must first reach a certain degree before a blissful reunion can happen …. Hence, such souls inhabit two worlds, although all souls enter the spiritual kingdom after their body’s death …. They are two worlds which are very distant from each other, which is not to be understood spatially but merely relates to the nature of each individual world …. A vast gulf exists, and yet, this gulf must be bridged sooner or later. Time and again beings from the kingdom of light must descent unrecognised and try to do their redemptive work on the souls by attempting to persuade them to detach themselves from their environment and to follow the beings of light, which then will aim to lead them ever closer to their own region …. that is, they must inform the souls in darkness of the divine Redeemer Jesus Christ and His immense act of mercy which was accomplished for these souls should they want My mercy for themselves. Only then will the gulf diminish between them and Me, between the kingdom of darkness and the kingdom of light …. Only then will the souls take the path which leads out of the abyss into higher spheres, and only then will the blessings of the act of Salvation take effect on them and gradually also result in a state of maturity where they themselves can and want to do redemptive work, because they want to repay their gratitude, which impels their willingness to help the wretched beings which still linger in the abyss.

The gulf must be overcome and there is only one bridge: Jesus Christ, the divine Redeemer …. Anyone who takes the path to Him also takes it to Me, even though he did not want to acknowledge Me on earth or was still vastly distanced from Me. He can only come back to Me by way of Jesus Christ, and He is therefore the bridge which leads from the dark region into the kingdom of light …. This should be remembered by all people who on earth certainly deem themselves to be in contact with Me and who nevertheless have not yet found the right attitude towards Jesus Christ, who only call themselves Christians by name and in reality have not established a heartfelt bond with Me in Jesus Christ, who therefore have not yet availed themselves of the blessings of the act of Salvation and so cannot speak of a redemption of their original sin either …. They, too, will face a deep gulf when they arrive in the beyond, for they will first have to seek and find Him, the divine Redeemer, so that He will release them from their guilt as well, for they only acknowledged Him with their mouth on Earth without involving their heart. But I look into the heart, and regardless of how loud and how often the mouth voices My name, I will not be deceived and cannot place the soul where it doesn’t actually belong …. It will be confronted by a vast gulf when it passes into the spiritual kingdom …. in other words: It will see nothing else but what its earthly-inclined senses want it to believe, and it will only be to its advantage if it can detach itself quickly and does not resist the helpers notions, so that it can quickly be introduced to the divine Redeemer as the only Saviour from its situation …. The connection must be made, the soul must take the path to Me by way of Jesus Christ and it will safely be guided by Him through the gate into the kingdom of light when it has bridged the vast gulf, when its will impels it to Jesus Christ and it desires and finds salvation through Him. Then it will also have taken the path to the Father …. I will receive it into My kingdom of light and blissful happiness ….

Amen

Food for the soul must be desired to be effective ….

B.D. 7291 from February 23rd 1959, taken from Book No. 77

According to desire you will receive …. For even if spiritual nourishment is supplied to you without desire it will not serve you as nourishment as long as you don’t feel hunger and thirst for it. You must therefore ‘desire’ to be fed and watered yourselves, then you will also receive the right nourishment and your soul will be strengthened and progress in its development. Now the body makes its need known, it announces itself when it needs nourishment for its maintenance. The soul, however, often cannot assert itself because it only expresses itself quietly and its voice is then not respected. It is still pushed back by the body, which first claims for itself what the soul, however, also needs. But the soul cannot be satisfied with purely earthly food and earthly drink …. It needs other nourishment, and this has to be provided by the human being’s will by leading the soul to the lord’s table where it can receive unlimited nourishment. The human being’s will is always ready to provide for the body, but it is far more necessary to provide for the soul, for it will outlive the body when its hour has come. Then neither food nor drink, nor all medicine …. will help the body. The soul, however, remains and is now in a state corresponding to its care during its existence on earth. You humans should always bear this in mind and, out of this consideration, spur on your will to meet the soul’s needs, to provide it with food and drink and the right medicine for its state, and the soul’s fate in eternity will thereby be assured, it will not need to live in want in the kingdom of the beyond but will have its full life. Thus the human being must consciously provide the soul with food and drink, he must impart the word of God to it which is the soul’s proper nourishment and ensures its eternal life. The human being himself must want to receive the word of God so that the soul will be satiated and strengthened on its pilgrimage across earth. Then the soul will also draw strength from the nourishment offered to it, which it cannot receive in any other way than through God’s word. And as soon as only the human being himself desires to hear God’s voice, his desire will also be fulfilled …. God Himself speaks to the human being in many ways …. He intervenes in the human being’s thoughts, He comes to him in the form of a book, He speaks through the mouth of a servant, or He Himself speaks to His child when it goes directly to the father and wants to hear His voice …. The soul’s desire is always granted, no soul remains without invigoration which seeks to satisfy its hunger and comes to the lord’s table …. which, however, always has to be prompted by the human being’s will, which therefore has to happen consciously, otherwise even the most delicious food, the direct word from above …. offered by God Himself …. would have no effect on the soul. For what is not desired would be a gift of grace without desire but which does not exert any compulsion and therefore remains ineffective. This is why people can often receive this gift of grace without recognizing it as such. Then the words, which God’s love guides to earth, remain entirely without impression, which will touch and delight a desiring soul in the deepest way. But if the effect of the divine word on all people were the same …. irrespective of their desire or indifference …. then it would have a compelling effect on the soul, and every soul would have to ascend but the will would have become unfree, whereas the soul nevertheless has to decide in freedom of will to accept or reject …. The soul needs strong nourishment if it wants to mature and progress, and it is also offered to it at all times, but only the inner desire is decisive as to what strength the soul draws from the nourishment …. which is why the human being must also know about his soul’s needs and about the responsibility if he denies it the nourishment it requires, if he does not pay attention to its needs and the soul is weak and wretched when death approaches the human being and it has to leave his body. The soul itself has been indifferent in its desire, otherwise it could have pushed the human being from within; and the soul itself must now also bear the consequences of its indifference, for it remains …. It is the actual I of the human being, which cannot pass away. This is why the human being is instructed again and again but not forced either, for the soul must freely decide in earthly life, and it must now also bear the consequences of a wrong decision in the kingdom of the beyond ….

Amen

Blind faith and dead Christianity ….

B.D. 7292 from February 24th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

It is difficult to convince people of the fact that I cannot be satisfied with a formality …. and by ‘formality’ I mean the following of human traditions and customs, which are totally worthless, precisely because they are only a habit, an adopted heritage which is a mere pretence and therefore cannot be pleasing to Me. For I want truth, a living Christianity, I want people to follow eagerly and be alive themselves, for I will never be able to appreciate or approve of that which is dead. And dead is everything people acquire or adopt from their fellow human beings without first having seriously formed an opinion of it themselves. If therefore a person was taught to accept a certain point of view he is, as soon as he is able to think, duty bound to deliberate on it and only what he accepts or rejects of his own free will are his own thoughts, for the use of which he will have to justify himself. But he will also have to justify himself for blind faith …. Such faith can never be credited to him as pleasing to God, for I cannot condone that everything is thoughtlessly and unhesitatingly believed and that the human being himself does not scrutinise anything he is expected to believe. And neither will he ever be able to claim that ‘teachers’ had instructed him in such ways, for he is …. seeing that he can think for himself …. in a position to think about what he is demanded to believe. And if he seriously wants to discover the truth his thoughts will also be guided correctly. But most people lack this serious will; hence they thoughtlessly accept everything and then live in the belief that they are true Christians as long as they don’t reject the religious doctrines regarding Jesus Christ. But what they possess is a far cry from faith, for a faith that is of value before My eyes must be alive and can only be gained through a serious attitude …. But where can this be found? ….

People are often satisfied with the one-time instruction in their youth, which they then take along into adult life and believe that this knowledge is enough and that they have no further responsibility towards a God and Creator …. How very mistaken they are, and how empty they will stand before Me one day when I demand accountability for their life on earth …. Yet they cannot be convinced of their wrong thinking, or they would make an effort to gain insight and with a living spirit also deal with the hitherto dead knowledge they possess. There are only a few who are not satisfied and search in order to find the truth …. And these few will indeed find it because they inwardly search for Me Myself, the Eternal Truth Itself. But all people would be able to search, for all people are able to think, and every serious thought would lead them to the right path of their search, for then I Myself will already be prepared to stretch out My hands and draw everyone desiring enlightenment out of the dark into the light. However, as long as a person does not realise that he is on the wrong path he will not look around in search of the right path either …. And people believe that they take the correct path because they are persuaded to believe it by leaders who have not yet found the right path themselves. And thus it remains up to every individual person himself, but indirectly every individual will be helped time and again, he will be mentally admonished to reflect and to ask himself how he will fare when he must justify himself before Me …. And if he remains in silence for a while after such inner questions I will also answer them, for I only require him to turn to Me consciously …. Then I will never leave his side until he is on the right path of looking for Me and then he will also most certainly find Me ….

Amen

Lovelessness = darkness …. love = realization ….

B.D. 7293 from February 26th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

One day you will clearly realize the significance of your earthly life, and only then will you know what you could have achieved and think back in deep remorse to the many opportunities you left unused for your spiritual maturing. Yet you can already come to this realization on earth if only you would simply keep My commandments of love. Not much more is required of you than that you observe these commandments, and then the realization will also come to you of its own accord why and for what purpose you live on earth. And you all know these commandments of love, thus you could also acquire the knowledge of the meaning and purpose of your earthly life, and you could all truly leave earthly life in a state which can be called blissful for you …. But the fact that you do not live as My commandments of love require is also the reason why you live on earth with a darkened spirit and without responsibility towards your soul. For love enlightens your spirit, love alone gives you the knowledge which, however, you lack without love. And one day, when you enter the spiritual kingdom, the degree of love will be decisive for the place of stay …. for the sphere in which you now dwell after the death of your body …. And this can very easily be such that one day you will bitterly regret not having made better use of your earthly life. For one day you will all come to realize the importance of this earthly life and look at your own state of soul and know that you could have shaped it differently yourselves because you lived on earth for the purpose of doing so …. And yet, information about it can only ever be given to you humans, which you now believe and accept or not. For you are free, otherwise it would truly be easy for Me to give you clear knowledge about the meaning and purpose of earthly life, but then you would no longer be able to make a free decision of will because the certain knowledge would already force you to do right and to live on earth. And therefore only one thing is important to repeatedly point out to you humans My commandments of love for God and your neighbour, which cannot be done often enough in order to awaken the human being’s sense of responsibility, for if this commandment of My love is repeatedly presented to him he will also subject his thoughts and actions to self-criticism, and he will make an effort to live according to My will as soon as he is not completely opposed to Me, thus completely belongs to My adversary. His attitude towards My commandments of love also shows his attitude towards Me Myself …. If he rejects the former then he also rejects Me and demonstrates his bond with My adversary …. But if he tries to live in love then it is a sign that he wants to go to Me and detach himself from My adversary, and then he will demonstrate his bond with Me ever more, because he will perform works of love ever more eagerly and the significance of his earthly existence will now also be so clearly understandable to him that he will adjust his life far more spiritually than earthly, for the love within him is the light which illuminates his spirit and gives him brightest realization. And thus the darkness can also be explained in which people walk who do not respect My commandment of love …. Their inner being cannot be enlightened, they will never be able to grasp any correlations, they will only live a selfish life and be all the more darkened in spirit the greater their self-love is …. They disregard My commandments of love and have no sense of responsibility towards the soul, which is why they will enter the kingdom of the beyond blind and poor when the hour of departure from this world has come. And they will remain in darkness for a long time in this kingdom, for even there they can only reach the light if they are lovingly active, and this requires strength which can only be given to the soul through loving intercession, because the soul itself has no strength whatsoever, since on earth only the body was thought of but not the soul. And therefore it is very difficult in the kingdom of the beyond to reach where it could easily have reached on earth if only it had heeded My commandments of love. For love is strength and helps every soul to ascend …. and therefore no-one can become blissfully happy without love ….

Amen

Fighting selfish love ….

B.D. 7294 from February 27th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

You only should possess a small amount of selfish love and you will find it easy to fulfil My commandments of love for God and your neighbour. Selfish love cannot be small enough, for this alone prevents the human being from performing selfless neighbourly love which is, after all, the most important thing in earthly life if the soul is to reach perfection. But selfish love clings to every person as a legacy of the one who is devoid of all love, who loves himself above all else or he would not have become My enemy and adversary, who lays claim to everything himself and wants to take all authority away from Me. He alone wants to possess, and every kind of selfish love is a demand for possession, hence an acceptance of his plans and a distancing from Me, Who is love Itself. As long as selfish love still prevails within the human being he will not care about his neighbour nor change his nature into love, which first of all requires curbing his selfish love. And so you humans can only ever be informed of the fact that you are still subject to My adversary’s influence as long as your selfish love is still predominant, and that should motivate you to fight against yourselves …. Your should always oppose you own wishes with your fellow human being’s hardship and try to consider your fellow human being consistently more and do without for his sake. Then your soul will progress greatly, in fact, only the degree of your selfish love enables you to assess the state of your soul, and you should never believe that your work of improving your soul is right as long as you haven’t overcome your selfish love, which is the best indicator for your soul’s maturity. But you can rest assured that I will help you overcome yourselves if only you have the sincere will to achieve this degree of maturity where your neighbour’s fate is closer to your heart than your own. Then you will also receive strength, because I bless every sincere will and help you not to weaken in your determination to become perfect. However, without this fight against your selfish love it is not possible, without this fight you will never selflessly take care of your neighbour, you will never experience the feeling of love which wants to please as long as you are still imbued by desiring love, which is My adversary’s share. And he will keep you enchained until you have freed yourselves by being victorious over your selfish love, which is a major advantage for your soul and which can only mature if the human being eagerly improves himself, if he constantly tries to fulfil My will which is always merely expressed in My commandments “Love God above all else and your neighbour as yourself ….”

Amen

The forerunner of Jesus Christ ….

B.D. 7295 from February 28th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

And when you hear that someone is proclaiming the Lord in an extraordinary way then you will know that the final phase of the last days has started, that the forerunner of Jesus Christ is carrying out his mission again to announce Him, Who will come on the day of Judgment to fetch His Own and to implement the change on earth, as is proclaimed in Word and Scripture. He will appear entirely unexpectedly causing much stir because the power of his voice is great and because he will speak to people in such an earnest and significant manner that many will feel impressed and accept his word …. because they realise that he is proclaiming the ‘Word of God’, and also because the signs of his working in order to help his fellow human beings are remarkable. He will be a true miracle worker of the poor and miserable, a helper in the adversity which will befall humanity at the time of his appearance. And he will speak loudly and clearly, he will not be afraid of those who prohibit his activity, he will expose those who speak and act in opposition to God’s will all the more and thus he will be hated and persecuted by the powerful of this earth, whose conduct of people he strongly condemns. But the gulf between the earthly and the spiritual world will already be too deep as to expect any understanding by the former of what the ‘voice crying in the wilderness’ proclaims. They will laugh at him and only pursue him so keenly because he is very popular, since there are nevertheless people who let themselves be impressed, much to the annoyance of the authorities which oppose all faith and proceed against it.

And this time is not far away, it will not be long and you will hear of him. But then you will also know that you have to persevere, for once he appears you will also have to be prepared for the imminent battle of faith, and then the direction you take will be crucial, for then it will only be too obvious that you have to decide either for God or for the world …. He will strongly support you in taking the path to God, for he will speak convincingly and powerfully. God Himself will speak so obviously through him that no human being should find it difficult to join him, because he will also provide such visible evidence of his calling that people will thus be able to recognise who he is …. He himself also knows what his function consists of and that it is his last task to precede the Lord and announce Him with a loud voice …. He is also aware of his origin and likewise of his end, which again will be dreadful, but he fears nothing and nothing will stop him from completing his mission, which will be very blessed ….

And anyone joining him will truly do well, for he will be able to draw much strength and get much light from this great light which will shine wherever he appears. He is already alive but not yet aware of his task, which nevertheless will suddenly become clear to him and fundamentally change his earthly life, for although he is of service to the Lord and also recognises the spiritual low level humanity is languishing in …. he has not yet been called, but it will happen all of a sudden …. And then he will leave his hitherto quietude and become fully conscious of his task, for he will be moved by the spirit of God, granting him complete clarity about his mission. And he will gladly serve the Lord with a devotion which makes him constantly more suitable for the final service which he wants to render before the end, before His return …. But you humans, pay attention to those who proclaim the Word of God, and you will recognise the one who becomes very noticeable because he wants to fulfil an unusual mission: to announce the coming of the Lord and by means of powerful sermons make people aware of their earthly task to be repentant and seriously work for their soul’s salvation, for he will announce the end to them which will soon follow after his appearance, for the time has been fulfilled which God granted humanity for their perfection ….

Powerful effect for the 'doer of the word' …. coercion ….

B.D. 7296 from March 1st 1959, taken from Book No. 77

Nothing is allowed to have a compelling effect on you but in all freedom of will you have to decide for Me or against Me. And therefore My gifts of grace are also …. as unusual as they are sent to you …. are not compulsory in their effect, instead, the latter will only start at all if you accept them of your own free will and live accordingly. My word can indeed be offered to you but it is only the deed …. the living out of My word …. which reveals a visible effect. And no-one will live out the word who is not willing of his own free will to strive towards Me. But for the one who has made this decision, who thus lives according to My will and is a true doer of My word and not just a listener, the effect of blessing will be so immense that he will then no longer be able to doubt for a moment that he has been addressed by Me Myself. But then this direct address is no longer to be regarded as compulsion. If I could speak from above to all people then there would truly also be success, but this success would not be of value to the soul, precisely because it would then only compulsorily decide in favour of Me, Who has obviously and undoubtedly expressed Himself from above …. I cannot and may not prove Myself to humanity, although it would certainly be within My power to provide people with very clear evidence of Myself …. But earthly life has to be lived without any coercion, without any determination of will, since the soul’s perfection is the goal and purpose of its earthly progress, and it is and remains free in its will and actions if it is ever to reach perfection. But every person can provide himself with the proof of My existence, of My activity and work, by living out My word, because then the effect of My word will become apparent to him by itself. And this is determined by every person himself, whether he allows Me Myself to speak to him on one occasion, i.e. whether he accepts My word, if it is offered to him, and subjects it to contemplation …. and whether, on the other hand, he now makes the attempt to live accordingly, i.e. to be a doer and not just a listener of My word …. The human being’s will has to do this itself, but it will never be to his detriment if he makes up his mind to do so. But in the same way the human being can listen indifferently when My word is proclaimed to him and let the word fall flat on his ear, thus hardly listen to it but never make an effort to live according to the word …. And then it will also remain without any effect, then it will be nothing more than a spoken human word from which no-one can expect an effect, so as not to forcibly gain human will, which would be entirely worthless for the soul. However, you will be offered many aids besides or apart from My word …. which also include suffering and hardship, which shall cause you to think, so that you will then have an open heart when My word is proclaimed to you. You will also be mentally stimulated to take a stand through all kinds of events where your heart can also be open again for the acceptance of My word. You will even find yourselves in difficult situations where you will be grateful when a ray of hope shines for you which ‘My word’ can mean for you again …. You will always be prompted to reflect, and then the possibility may already exist that you listen more attentively and inwardly try to come to terms with the spiritual knowledge offered to you …. But all reflection has to be voluntary, you can never be addressed in such an unusual way that you have to believe in an activity on My part, for that would be a disadvantage for you and could not result in a blessing for your soul. Yet you humans would all do well if you paid attention to everything that happens around you which can only be explained to you when you relate it to My word, to the knowledge which is incomprehensible to you as long as you are without any contact with Me …. But you can attain enlightenment through My word and then also be inspired to live according to My word, which, however, always first requires a willing listening to the ‘glad tidings’ which are conveyed to you, because I love you and want to win you over before the final end comes and you become completely powerless victims of it because you kept your distance from Me …. I cannot force you to approach Me but I can admonish and warn you again and again and do everything to encourage you to listen when My messengers approach you and proclaim Me. And if you open yourselves then it will only be a blessing for you and you will be saved from ruin ….

Amen

Transformation of earth ….

B.D. 7297 from March 2nd 1959, taken from Book No. 77

The earth will continue to exist, for I have not planned its total destruction …. Yet everything living on it, as well as all creations of nature, will cease to be, so that a complete purification of earth can take place, since in its present state it no longer serves the progress of the spiritual substances. All living creations in, on and above the earth will lose their lives; they will be released from their enshrouding external form and able to continue the path of development, which at the moment is at risk for all spiritually tangible beings. For My adversary rages in every possible way and, time and again, tries to stop or interrupt this development. But the earth shall still fulfil its task for an infinitely long time to come, seeing that still immature beings shall mature on it to attain childship to God …. And therefore earth will arise again after a thorough purification process has taken place, after all spiritual substances are correctly placed, that is, after they are embodied into the external forms they merit, from hard matter up to the human being, who will also have to be offered easier opportunities to achieve maturity again to enable them to reach the goal of becoming true children of God. Thus the final destruction is synonymous with the end of the old earth, even though the planet as such will remain and merely its external shell will go through a complete transformation. And thus the ‘end’ can, and rightfully should, be pointed out, as it will not just mean the end of all civilisations but also ends the existence of every work of creation on this earth. And a new period will start again, the entire earth’s surface will be brought to life by Me again with the most magnificent kinds of creations for the human eye to delight in once more, as I will give all new creations most exquisite forms and provide all types of living creations to coexist with the people who will inhabit this new earth again and whom I will take there Myself in love, wisdom and might. For I will establish the root of a new human race with those I was able to remove from the old earth; they remained true to Me until the end and thus are chosen by Me as the new generation, who in turn shall bring forth people who live within My will and amongst whom I can dwell Myself by virtue of their faith and love ….

And it will be a blissful state, for the new creations will delight people to an extent never known before. People will truly inhabit a paradise, an earth which no longer corresponds to the old earth, because it will only be occupied by mature people capable of receiving an extent of bliss previously unknown on earth, since humanity already belonged to Satan, thus necessitating the cleansing of earth. And this time lies ahead of you, and each one of you would still be able to change his nature such to be granted the great blessing of the rapture …. But a person is rarely able to muster firm faith in it, and only few people have such abundance of love that they belong to the small flock which I will call away suddenly and unexpectedly …. But prior to that, a time of need will befall earth which should be a very definite sign for you that the day is not far away. When you are able to clearly observe My adversary’s activities, when you yourselves are exposed to the evil deeds of his cohorts, when the adversity gets worse and a way out seems impossible to you, then this end will be near, then I will use My might to destroy everything profoundly evil and rescue My Own from certain destruction …. And those taken away by Me will live to see the downfall of the old earth, although they will no longer be affected by it themselves …. But one day they shall bear witness to the judgment of a righteous God, they shall be able to observe the act of destruction and yet praise and glorify the One Who has saved them from this judgment.

And once again I will carry out an act of creation, for My willpower alone will let a new earth arise, a dwelling place for My small flock, for My chosen people, who will then be able to live their new life in paradise, in peace and freedom, in happiness and bliss, in light and strength …. where no suffering and pain exist because the source of all evil is bound and unable to oppress people for a long time …. For one earth period has come to an end, and a new one will start again to help countless still bound spiritual substances to progress in order to enable them reach the final goal, the unity with Me as My child. And this is what lies ahead of you humans, for the time is fulfilled which was once granted to you to achieve the final release from the form ….

Amen

Serious reminder and indication of the end ….

B.D. 7298 from March 4th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

The turn of the world is still preceded by much misery, for people still have to be severely touched beforehand because they go along in the frenzy of worldly pleasure and make no effort to prepare themselves for the near end, for their own end as well as for the end of the earth, which is immensely significant for every single human being. It is no longer a long time but people do not believe it and work and create as if they still had eternally long times ahead of them where they or their descendants can reap the fruits of their labour …. But no one will attain the blessing of what he tries to build with effort and sacrifice. Everything will take the course of the earthly, it will fall prey to destruction, in whatever way that may happen. Even the coming natural disaster can deprive you of all earthly possessions, insofar as you humans have your dwelling place in the area of this natural occurrence. But even those who will survive it unscathed will no longer have a long life span, and their possessions will also face ruin, for the end will follow not long after, and nothing will be spared from this end …. And if you humans seriously think about it, then your effort and work should not be in proportion to the benefit of what you create for yourselves, because you yourselves don’t know how long you will be beneficiaries, on the other hand you know exactly that once the death of your body is certain. Although you don’t want to believe that actual life will only begin after that …. But you should nevertheless reckon with it and prepare yourselves, and you will truly do well and gain far more than earthly possessions can mean to you. The time ahead of you cannot be called a time of rest, every single one of you will be affected by all kinds of strokes of fate so that you will not sink into rest, which for you is equal to the rest of death, for you should be and remain vigilant and again and again be reminded of the upheaval you have to expect. You should not attach your heart to earthly matter, again and again you should think of death, and therefore you will also experience much around you with your fellow human beings if it does not concern you yourselves which should and will make you think if you are of serious and good will to cover the path across earth in God’s will and to fulfil your purpose of earthly life. Then you will be addressed by Him again and again, for He wants to help you to still reach the right goal before the end comes; He wants to assist you in the battle against the world and in the work you should do on your soul during the short time you still have left until the end. And the coming time cannot be a time of rest for people but they have to be stirred up again and again and kept in restlessness and worry so that they will not slacken but again and again think of their own death, which can quickly befall anyone. What happens is not by chance; it is all based on God’s will, Who in turn intervenes according to the will of the human being where it is necessary. And He will still often intervene in a painful way, for the human being’s soul shall not be lost but still arise to life as long as it still lives on earth. But every human being’s hour of death can already be the next day, the human being himself does not know it, but he should reckon with it and do everything to be so prepared that he gladly and joyfully gives up earthly life in order to exchange it for a joyful and free existence in the spiritual kingdom. The time is serious and no-one should take it lightly, everyone should work on himself and his soul and put earthly worries aside, for everything will work itself out for the person of good will as soon as he puts the spiritual goal before his earthly endeavours, but he will never be blessed who only desires the world and creates without ceasing for this world …. He will lose everything and also himself, for his soul will return into the darkness from which it should rise ….

Amen

Love awakens the spirit, the spirit sets free ….

B.D. 7299 from March 5th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

Nothing is able to bind the spirit which you give life to within you through love …. It will assert itself against all desires of the body, it will try to determine the soul to influence the will in the right way, and it can also do this because love in you grants it the right to do so and because, as a divine part, it is stronger than all mortal things in you and the soul voluntarily submits itself to it. The spirit in you is My share …. So who or what should be able to resist Me Myself if you don’t want to do so yourselves? And the love within you demonstrates the will to completely submit to Me, for love is the same as I am Myself, and love pushes towards Me …. And thus you will be free as soon as you awaken the spirit in you to life through love, for contact with Me also signifies freedom, for only My adversary puts shackles on you, but I Myself try to break these shackles and therefore will never tolerate a gagging of your will as soon as it has turned towards Me through loving activity. And thus, once again, it is love which accomplishes this …. Love alone is the bond with Me which sets you free, love alone is the wake-up call of the spirit in you, and the soul will now only ever obey its voice and thus determine the will to completely submit to the spirit’s desire, that is, to enter into My will. The way My spirit expresses itself is not subject to doubt …. It will always emphasize the law of eternal order, and this law is: love …. Love therefore determines the spirit to express itself, and the expression of the spirit is in turn a call to loving activity, which is why there can no longer be any eternal decline once the human being has awakened the spirit within himself to life through love …. Then the soul’s process of further development has to proceed, then the goal is also assured for it: union with Me on earth already as soon as the human being has only declared himself willing to work with love on earth …. And what it means to have given life to the spirit within you will only become clear to you when the spirit introduces you to truth, when it gives you light and you receive bright knowledge which will make you blissfully happy. For an ignorant person walks along with a darkened spirit, he is not a truly living person but the chains of death still hold him captive and will not release him until he himself decides to enter the law of eternal order …. until he will once practice unselfish neighbourly love, whereby a small light will now be kindled in him …. until he gives life to the spirit within him …. Then he forces freedom upon himself, for light means freedom, and darkness he himself has chased away through his service of love. An awakened spirit is freedom in itself, it loosens all bonds and wrests the human being from My adversary’s fetters, because it has the power to do so as My share, which it will truly use, after all, it is a matter of leading the human being to Me, which always means an unleashing from his control. The person who lives in love becomes free and his spirit is awakened to life. And he can consider himself fortunate to have been transferred from the bound state into the state of freedom. And he will also appreciate the happiness, he will never want to miss being taught by the spirit within himself and feeling safe in its control, for its power only makes him happy but never appears to him as a fetter which threatens his freedom. Therefore, all of you awaken the spirit within you to life, for only then will you be able to speak of ‘life’, then death will never be able to frighten you again, for then you will have overcome it, because then you will live forever ….

Amen

The shortest way is the way across the cross ….

B.D. 7300 from March 6th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

I want to show you the shortest path that leads to Me, back into the father’s house. It is the path across the cross, the path to Jesus Christ, Who became a shell for Me as the human being Jesus so that I could accomplish the work of redemption for you, the work of atonement for your once great guilt of turning away from Me. This work of mercy was accomplished by My love for you, My creations which had become sinful, which had thereby plunged themselves into greatest wretchedness and were to be released from it. My love wanted to take over the guilt for you and make atonement for you, for love was the only thing which could redeem this great guilt, and you yourselves had renounced all love, you had rejected every illumination of love on My part, you were completely devoid of all love, and since this great original guilt could only be atoned for with love, My love had to redeem the guilt for you if I wanted you to ever become free again and be able to return to Me …. You have now also become free from this through My act of salvation, yet always with the restriction that you yourselves want to return to Me in freedom again …. that you yourselves want to be illuminated and permeated by My love again, which is strength and light and freedom. Hence you first have to muster this will if you want to be accepted into the circle of those for whom I died the most bitter death on the cross. Only your will is necessary so that you will then also receive the necessary strength to be able to travel the path to Me, for to travel this path means to be willing to enter the realm of My sun of love again, so that you will change your hitherto unloving nature into love …. Hence there is only one path which leads back to Me again …. the path of love, but you will only be able to take it when this path leads to the cross, otherwise you will be too weak to perform works of love despite your good will as long as My adversary still has you under his control, as long as the divine redeemer Jesus Christ has not yet entered your life, Whom you will only find on the cross of Golgotha if you set out on the path to Him. For He alone can and will strengthen your still weak will by showering you with His graces acquired on the cross and thus you will, as it were, receive back the strength of will you once possessed and lost due to your fall into the abyss. If I therefore want to show you the shortest path, it means that you absolutely have to make contact with Jesus Christ, that you approach Him for the strengthening of your will, for the forgiveness of your guilt and for redemption from your still bound state …. And all this is also synonymous with a life of love, with everlasting activity of love which completely transforms your nature and thus brings it into line with Mine again, Who is eternal love …. Every person who endeavours to live in love will also look up to Jesus Christ on the cross, he will feel guilty and ask to be released from his guilt, in weakness of his soul he will take the path to Jesus Christ and avail himself of His graces acquired on the cross …. He will lean on Him because he feels too weak himself, and he will not need to go any further than the cross because there he will find everything he needs in order to be taken back into his father’s house …. He will be certain of the forgiveness of his guilt of sin because he has also changed his nature, as well as the path to the cross is a matter of heart for him and therefore he also deeply regrets his guilt. But this change of nature does not take place without the will to love, for it is precisely love which the being lacks and which it has to ignite in itself again in order to assimilate itself to My original nature. But the human being will also be able to do so if only he is of good will to fulfil his earthly task for the purpose of which his earthly existence was given to him. The will is everything, and it is certainly strengthened by Jesus Christ …. But for this reason the divine redeemer cannot be excluded, and therefore the path to the cross is the human being’s one great task, the fulfilment of which, however, secures him strength and freedom, light and beatitude, as it is promised to you ….

Amen

Vineyard work: spreading the divine word ….

B.D. 7301 from March 7th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

Anyone who feels called to work for Me and My kingdom will also accept My word as being addressed to him when it concerns receiving instructions for the work in My vineyard …. He will feel addressed himself when My call goes out to My vineyard labourers to be industrious and to carry My word out into the world, i.e. to sow the seed which I send to you so abundantly …. to spread My word …. It is only a matter of fellow human beings taking notice of My address from above, of being given the opportunity to hear My voice for once so that they then have to adjust themselves to it, so that they decide to continue to be addressed by Me and to hear Me Myself, but which they can only do through you, who therefore feel called as My servants to receive the word from Me Myself and to pass it on. I have chosen My servants and servants Myself, even though they first had to testify to their will to serve Me, because I do not coerce a servant. You are completely free, and you must carry out the work in My vineyard completely freely, only out of love for Me, Whom you want to serve, and out of love for your fellow human beings who need your services because they are in need. They need good nourishment which their souls can fill themselves with, and therefore they also need good seed which will bear fruit in a thousand ways if they let it sow in their field of life and diligently nurture the new seed so that it will sprout and bear fruit. Again and again I therefore address My servants on earth and admonish them to work diligently for Me, again and again I instruct them to proclaim My word to their fellow human beings, and thus you should not be tardy and do everything in order to only inform your fellow human beings of the delicious teaching material which you receive from Me every day …. You should work diligently, for time is pressing. I would truly not admonish you so often and urgently to do this work if it were not so urgently necessary, because the time left to people for the rescue work on their souls is running out. And My word is the only means to inform them of what awaits you all …. My word is also the only path everyone should take in order to reach the right goal …. My word is furthermore the source of strength to be able to carry out everything I ask of you for the purpose of your own perfection …. My word is the bond between Me and you which you must enter into in order to travel the right path …. My word therefore signifies light and strength for you, which you absolutely need on the short pilgrimage path you humans still have to take. Therefore, again and again I admonish My vineyard labourers to be diligently active, to be completely absorbed in your work for Me and My kingdom. And I can only tell you again and again that the work is very urgent, since it is becoming increasingly difficult to find willing listeners who believe you and accept My word in their hearts. But for the sake of the few eager work shall be done, for only having saved one soul means a great gain for Me, in which all of you also have a share who help to still lead souls back to Me before the end. And let it be said to you that you will always find a field again where you can sow and a good harvest will be achieved …. For I know who hungers and thirsts for My word, and I direct them and your paths in such a way that you will find each other and be able to serve each other …. For humanity will still experience much, but I will also know how to protect those who walk with Me from every adversity and danger, I will be a faithful householder to My servants, Who cares for them spiritually and physically and in Whose service they will truly not regret ….

Amen

God's plan is irrevocably fulfilled ….

B.D. 7302 from March 8th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

You can consider everything possible but not that I deviate from My plan of salvation, which has been determined since eternity. In My wisdom I recognized the time when My intervention is necessary, and in accordance with this recognition the plan has been determined which I will certainly carry out, as I have announced to you again and again. And I was able to make these announcements to you humans again and again through seers and prophets because I saw the course of development, because I saw that you are increasingly regressing and that the time will come when this regression has to be stopped if My plan of redemption for the fallen spirits is not to be endangered …. I certainly allowed and still allow the being free will as long as it does not completely destroy itself …. But My adversary’s power over the being will increase the more wrongly the human being’s will is directed, and therefore the time will come when I will snatch this being from the adversary again and bind it in matter once more so that he will lose control over it. And this is My plan of salvation, to help the beingness to ascend by some means, which, however, often puts itself in danger of taking an unholy path which leads it into the adversary’s hands again. I can only help the being to become free from his control; but I cannot take the spiritual from the adversary, which is basically his possession because of his own attitude. But precisely for this reason I have designed My plan of salvation, which will certainly also be successful one day. And thus My reign and activity will always proceed in a lawful order; and as My plan provides for it, it will also be carried out with the certain success of a constant upward development, albeit with apparent interruptions which nevertheless basically signify a continuation of the development. But people will never know the exact day and hour, thus they will never be able to time the course of My plan of salvation. For a thousand years are like a day before Me …. which, however, does not exclude that one day the thousand years will be over and the day of the end, the day of My unexpected intervention in My plan of creation, will have come and the announcements will come true …. And therefore you humans should always be mindful of this day; you should live in constant expectation such that you unhesitatingly look forward to the day which is of utmost importance for all of you. I have always pointed this out, and until the day is approaching I will continue to point it out so that you will not be able to say that you have never been urged to work diligently on yourselves in view of the end which is foreseen in My plan of salvation, because a transformation of the old earth has become necessary if it is to continue to fulfil its purpose: to serve the spiritual as a maturing station. Again and again I tell you that these are not empty words, that I will not deviate from My plan, for it only aims at the redemption and return of all spiritual substances which once fell away from Me and into wretchedness. I know from eternity about your will, about your spiritual state and about the time when I have to intervene, and I will truly intervene, for the time has come, people have reached a spiritual low where only I Myself can restore order in the way intended in My plan from eternity. And since this is based on My infinite love and unsurpassable wisdom, it will truly also fulfil itself ….

Amen

Sincere longing for unification with God ….

B.D. 7303 from March 10th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

Take me into your heart, that is to say, sincerely long for unification with Me …. I will take care of anyone who harbours this genuine will and he will unite with Me forever because he has changed his will which once had turned away from Me, he has bonded with Me again just as he once had separated from Me. The greatest evil in the world is that people live with a certain indifference, an indifference towards Me, Whom perhaps they might still accept, but they barely know or grasp the connection with their God and Creator because they do not analyse themselves. By and large they walk their earthly path not without knowledge of Me but nevertheless without meaningful faith …. but mainly due to indifference …. except for people who clearly oppose Me …. But I mean those who are indifferent, who are the majority, who outwardly claim to believe in Me and yet hardly if ever involve themselves with Me …. They have not yet taken Me into their ‘hearts’, their will is not yet sincerely focussed on the union with Me, although they would deny this to their fellow human beings. But I know the degree of longing for Me and I want to be accepted in your hearts, I want your thoughts to involve themselves with Me so that you feel motivated to develop the close bond with Me …. so that you have that very will to unite with Me again, from Whom you once had voluntarily separated ….

It is precisely this honest will which can cause a complete change of your lifestyle and your inner being, but without this honest will you cannot even achieve a minor change of attitude, since your indifference will give My opponent the welcome opportunity to step between Me and you and truly successfully exercise his influence. I cannot walk with you because your heart is not sincerely searching for Me yet and therefore I cannot keep My opponent away either when he attaches himself to you. But without Me you will not have the strength to resist him, you will only too gladly agree to his plans because he will promise you worldly goods in return …. However, if you have the sincere wish of heart that I should be close to you then your will applies to Me, and then I will be able to push him away and thus will be truly close to you …. then you will have accepted Me in your heart and walk the right path to Me. With other words, once I have taken possession of your heart you will never lose Me again in all eternity because you had truthfully desired it.

And you all should give account to yourselves of the direction of your innermost will. You all should ask yourselves what you love most on earth, whether you still prefer worldly things or whether My presence alone is so desirable that you are willing to give up everything for My sake. If you are able to do the latter you are truly on the right path and your sincere will shall be rewarded, because now you will not waste any time which you could spend in My company because your heart will increasingly long to receive Me and such longing shall always be granted. For I too long for My children and want that they will return to Me again one day, Whom they had left due to their wrongly directed will …. which they have to change again towards Me, towards their eternal Father ….

Amen

Concerning the 'inner Word' ….

B.D. 7304 from March 11th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

My voice will be heard by all those who yearn for it and who make contact with Me in their hearts, thus who do not merely send lip-prayers to Me, which I do not hear. But I have many children who sincerely pray to Me and whose prayer I therefore grant, especially if they only appeal to Me to speak to My child as a Father …. For this request testifies to its love for Me, Who is everything to such a child …. God and Father, Friend and Brother …. And then I will express Myself as a Father, Friend and Brother, and My Words will, at all times, relate to its appeals and wishes, which the child presents to Me with complete confidence. And thus every human being may consider himself spoken to by Me if he merely remains in heartfelt communication with Me until he become conscious of My reply, for precisely this waiting and expecting of My answer must not be neglected, but it also assumes a profound faith that I speak to My children …. Were people to have this profound faith they would not find it unusual for a God to speak to His living creations; for a Father to speak to His children. But only a few have precisely this faith, and this is why I can so rarely express Myself such that fellow human beings will also find out about it. Added to that is the fact that people hear My Words in a completely different way, usually in their own language; that is why the results of a child’s heartfelt dialog with the Father are considered its own product of thought, unless an extraordinary content takes fellow human beings aback or teaches them to think otherwise.

Yet I say to you: I speak to My children far too gladly as to let an opportunity of expressing Myself pass by, although I can only ever reveal Myself in accordance with their state of maturity and the task, which the recipient of My Word has to fulfil on this earth at the same time. Hence, as soon as the transference of My Word is combined with a task, the conditions this recipient has to fulfil will also be different in order to be suitable for his task. In that case the results of the heartfelt communication with Me, the content of My direct speech, will also be of a different kind, because it will have to stand up to criticism by rational people, because they must be viewed as teaching material which is intended to be spread, which is to be conveyed as the Gospel to people who are suffering utmost spiritual hardship. But it will by no means contradict My Words to My children, although they will be presented in a different form precisely because of their purpose. For I must address My children according to their capacity of reception. And as soon as My messages are quoted literally they will never contradict themselves …. if, however, they get rearranged according to personal opinion, then error can and will also be included in the Words which, initially, were conveyed to a person in purest truth.

Whatever you humans hear from above should be left unchanged by you …. Time and again I want to remind you of this, then the truth will be guaranteed, and then nobody will be able to take offence apart from those who, as yet, still don’t know the truth themselves. For even if a person’s thinking at first deviates from the truth My Word will guide it back onto the right path, or controversial questions will, for the time being, be sidelined until the person completely accepts My Words without inner resistance …. caused by wrong instructions …. and such contradictions will clarify themselves. But I speak to all of My children if they allow Me to speak to them due to their intimate bond and the will to hear Me …. And My Words are always aimed at those who are moved by the same questions and have the same will to hear Me. Nevertheless, in view of the great spiritual hardship and the near end I convey My Word …. the teaching which was proclaimed by the man Jesus on earth …. to earth again, so that it shall be spread and touch all those human hearts which, in their search for truth, are open to My Words when they are imparted to them by My messengers. This Word is therefore intended for everyone but will likewise only make an impression on those who listen to it without resistance, and they will subsequently act and live in line with My Word and will also be able to experience the effect of My Word, for they will gain in strength and light, willpower and wisdom, for everything that comes forth from Me will have to take effect, providing that the person’s will does not offer resistance …. that the person wants to be addressed by Me and gratefully accepts My gift of grace which My love offers and will continue to offer him until the end ….

Amen

"I am the way, the truth and the life …. "

B.D. 7305 from March 12th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

No human being has life unless he receives it from Me …. for I am the life and from Me all life emanates. At the beginning of his embodiment the human being still belongs far more to death, and he shall first attain true life on earth. He has to take a certain path for this, and this path is again Me Myself …. He has to accept the truth from My hand, because I am also the eternal truth. And thus there is only one path to truth and life, and this path is called Jesus Christ, for every human being must first be redeemed by Him if he wants to attain eternal life. This is why I came to earth in the human being Jesus Myself to show people the path, to lead the way, which everyone should only follow Me, thus to attain life in truth. However, before they are redeemed by Jesus Christ they still walk in the night of death, they don’t know the truth, they don’t know the right path which leads to life, and if they knew it they wouldn’t have the strength to walk it ….. But Jesus Christ gives them this strength, He guides them and sets them free from death so that they can enter into blissful life. This is why I said: “I am the way, the truth and the life ….” Without Me no-one can attain truth and life, for as long as he does not have Me as his guide he takes a different path which certainly does not lead from death to life. But the human being must also want to reach life, and he must fight against the one who tries to keep him in death, who will do everything to prevent him from finding the right path, the path to life. The human being must want to live himself and turn to the lord of life, asking Him for strength and guidance, because he alone is too weak to travel this path. For the path goes upwards and requires strength …. the path is arduous and not tempting, and therefore it also requires the person’s firm will to cover it for the sake of the goal. For the goal is glorious: the goal is a life of bliss, of light and strength and freedom …. But no human being needs to despair or be afraid that he will lack strength if only he turns to Jesus Christ, to the one in Whom I Myself walked the earth in order to redeem you humans from sin and death, from weakness and darkness …. Whoever turns to Him turns to Me, if only he believes that I am the way, the truth and the life …. if only he believes that only one can give life, Who Himself is lord over life and death …. and when I speak of “life”, I speak of the life that lasts forever, not of the short earthly life that was given to you only for the purpose of acquiring eternal life …. I want you to live for eternity and for this life of yours to be a blessed one, but you must take the path via Jesus Christ and you will most certainly attain life in all freedom and truthfulness, you will be united with Me again as it was in the beginning, you will live forever and now no longer lose this life ….

"My kingdom is not of this world …."

B.D. 7306 from March 13th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

You will not be able to achieve spiritual success if your eyes are only turned towards the world, for everything that belongs to the world only serves the body’s comfort, yet it harms rather than benefits the soul. The soul can only benefit from the kingdom which exists in contrast to the earthly world, from the kingdom of the spirit which belongs to Me and therefore also only contains spiritual treasures which I want to distribute and whose beneficiaries will only ever be the soul but not the human being’s body. “My kingdom is not of this world ….” I have quite openly drawn a line, I have emphasized it, that My kingdom has nothing in common with this world because they are two entirely different kingdoms whose goods are thus desired and received by the soul or the body …. depending on the human being’s will, who has to decide about it in earthly life. But the soul could assert itself with its desire, for just as the body expresses its desire so can the soul express its desire, and thus the stronger this desire is the more the will will decide …. But if the soul gives in, then the body retains the prerogative, and it fetches everything in the earthly world which seems desirable to it and which fills the human being’s senses. And the soul then comes away empty-handed because it cannot register any satisfying or spiritual progress from those worldly things, but the soul’s time is lost which was used to satisfy the body. There are two different kingdoms, My kingdom and the earthly world, and equally different are their goods, which are distributed according to desire …. imperishable the one and imperishable the other …. And yet, it is mostly the latter which are desired, for they enfold the human being’s senses and make his will weak …. The spiritual goods, however, strengthen him if they are seriously desired and received only once. Then the willpower and the desire of the human being’s heart will increase, and then the worldly goods will also lose their appeal. Then man is saved for time and eternity …. But it is precisely the first steps into the spiritual kingdom that are so extremely difficult for the human being as long as the earthly world is still so tangible before his eyes and he can fulfil his wishes in it ….. But once this step into the spiritual kingdom is seriously taken, then the lights from the earthly world fade and the bright light from My kingdom begins to shine and spread ever brighter radiance …. And then the soul will fetch light and strength for itself, and then it will want to return to the earthly realm less and less, although it still lives on earth, but it often dwells in My kingdom of light and bliss, for it receives treasures from this kingdom…, which will no longer be lost to it, which will follow it into eternity, it matures during its earthly life because its strength constantly increases and it can work ever more diligently on its perfection, for it leaves the earthly world behind for the sake of My kingdom, which is ‘not of this world’ …….

Frequent introspection is necessary ….

B.D. 7307 from March 13th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

Look within yourselves and recognise your weaknesses …. Frequent introspection is very necessary for you, for you humans are not aware of the fact that you are still very inadequately shaped because you do not critically look at your state of soul but are satisfied so long as only your external appearance is alright in your opinion. Yet the latter does not contribute towards increasing your maturity of soul, which requires work in its own right if it is to yield results. And it is necessary for you to know how you should be like and how you actually are …. This is why you should give account to yourselves more often, you should exercise self criticism and only ever use My commandments of love for God and your neighbour as the guideline …. and you will soon become aware of weaknesses and imperfections which will then surface with crystal clarity if you have the serious will to change your nature. And you should know that it has to be a serious will of your heart, not just resolutions outwardly voiced by the mouth but which do not affect the heart. You humans are still far too earthly minded with the result that unselfish neighbourly love is hardly ever practised, because a human being who is still too attached to the world always thinks of himself first before he considers his neighbour.

However, if you are serious that your soul should attain maturity then you will frankly and honestly admit your weaknesses and imperfections to yourselves and try to counteract them in order to achieve a change and to prove your serious will to yourselves, for only the serious will assures success, whereas a superficial examination will not be regarded as such and cannot signify any accomplishment for the soul either. You can certainly be helped in every way, insofar as that you will find support in your intention as well as in action, nevertheless, the actual work of improving your soul has to be done by yourselves, and this involves looking inwards and realisation, it involves the absolute seriousness of a self-examination, which then will also divulge to you where you will have to start with your work but then you will certainly be successful, for in that case you will find a high level of spiritual support. Everything depends on the serious will, and this will is valued by the One Whom you should love above all else and Who also commanded you to love your brothers, who are His children too and who also require your love. This, however, is lacking in all of you, and therefore you will repeatedly have to listen to the admonitions to look within yourselves. For if you are to be helped then you must first know where help is needed …. And only when you know yourselves, when you make an effort to recognise your nature, which is still far from perfection, will you try to reach it, even if it is still an act of a very determined will, but it is nevertheless possible with spiritual support as soon as it is established that you are of good will and sincerely strive towards attaining perfection ….

Amen

"To the humble, God gives His grace …."

B.D. 7308 from March 14th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

The will to serve is entering into humility, it is the beginning of victory in the battle against arrogance, which still characterizes man as a child of satan and which he should therefore fight with all his strength. Arrogance wants to rule, it places itself high above everything standing next to it; the arrogant person wants to subjugate everything and force it under his service, the arrogant person is brutal and unloving, he has all the characteristics of God’s adversary which are obviously evident, and therefore he is on the path to ruin if he does not change and seriously takes action against the arrogant spirit. And he will do so as soon as the will arises in him to serve …. Serving his fellow human being is truly liberating, for then he escapes from the adversary and enters another sphere, for humility leads him to God, through humility he comes close to God and receives blessings in abundance, according to His promise: “Only to the humble do I bestow My grace ….” Humility will always prove itself in a serving will to help, the human being enters a completely different stage of development when he lives in humility, when he fights all arrogance, when he begins to recognize himself and becomes aware of his weakness of will and faults which take away all arrogance and place him in the consciousness of deepest lowliness. And accordingly he will also imagine himself to be far away from God, he will raise his eyes to Him in true humility and appeal to Him for His mercy …. But this will not be a game, not an external form but profound inner humility which therefore also makes him worthy of God’s grace so that he will be strengthened in his intention to work on himself in order to remedy the shortcoming and to become more worthy of God’s love and grace, which a humble person longs for and requests from the bottom of his heart. The humble person has already accomplished the turning away from the adversary, for humility is a divine quality, a degree of perfection which always presupposes the turning away from the adversary, even though the person then still has to work very hard on himself in order to become worthy of God’s constant presence. But the serving love which now fills a humble person soon transforms his whole being into love, and a truly humble person soon comes so close to the father’s heart that he unites with the eternal love and thus also attains perfection. As long as the human being still lacks true humility his process of maturing is not yet finished either, for only true humility draws the father to His child with certainty, which proves God’s childship through true humility …. And as long as there is still a spark of arrogance in the human being, the path to this unification is still long, for God’s adversary is still involved, and the battle against him has to be waged with all will and firm resolution, and it can also be waged as soon as the human being achieves helpful neighbourly love, which will then also earn him victory over himself. Only once should the human being go into himself and reflect on his faults and weaknesses, on his vices and bad habits …. And he will get away from his arrogance quite considerably if he is only honest with himself …. But this critical self-examination can be the turning point for him, because as soon as he recognizes himself and is of good will, he will turn to God in humility and ask Him for grace and mercy …. which he can then also be quite sure of, because “God gives His grace to the humble” ….

Amen

Power supply in the hereafter requires loving will to help ….

B.D. 7309 from March 15th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

Everyone should strive to perfect himself as long as he lives on this earth, for once he has entered the kingdom of the beyond in an imperfect state he will have far less strength than on earth, and for the time being he will have to acquire strength through loving activity which, however, also requires strength again, whereas on earth he has the vitality at his disposal which he can use according to his own will, thus also for loving activity. Consider that only loving activity will ever bring about your perfection, that your soul can only mature through loving activity, regardless of whether on earth or in the beyond …. Consider that you always need strength for this …. You are to be pitied if you arrive over there in a powerless state and are now dependent on the help of people on earth or the beings of light in the spiritual kingdom in order to regain some strength for the time being. People can impart this supply of strength to you through loving intercession, but that is why you should also gain the love of your fellow human beings on earth, who will now include you in their intercession so that you will gain strength. The beings of light will also come to your aid but they cannot arbitrarily convey strength to you …. You must be willing to help other souls in their adversity with this supply of strength, and precisely this will to love must awaken in you yourselves, only then will you receive the necessary strength to work with love. There is certainly much adversity in the kingdom of the beyond, yet anyone who has passed by his fellow human being’s adversity on earth will also be little affected by it in the beyond, because his self-love is still too great and he only thinks of his own adversity. For this reason it is far more difficult to attain a higher degree of perfection than on earth, and therefore you humans should not be indifferent but make good use of the vitality at your disposal for your salvation in the beyond …. You can truly gather many treasures on earth if only you diligently carry out works of unselfish neighbourly love, and you will enter the spiritual kingdom full of strength and light and thus immediately be able to utilize your spiritual treasures as helpers for the wretched beings who failed to gather spiritual wealth on earth and who are therefore dependent on loving help in utmost adversity. For only love can bring them help, even if their own will first has to be willing to accept this love and likewise help their suffering companions again, who, like themselves, failed to acquire spiritual treasures on earth. The adversity is great in the kingdom of the beyond, and anyone who therefore knows, who believes the reports about it, should still try to attain maturity of his soul on earth, and when he enters the spiritual kingdom he will be happy to have followed these admonitions, for he will never be able to make up for what is extremely easily possible for him on earth with good will …. He will certainly still be able to attain light and beatitude, but it will take much longer and require great effort to take only a few steps further, whereas earthly life had sufficed to enable him to attain the highest degree …. the degree of childship to God …. which, however, he will no longer be able to attain in the kingdom of the beyond. Therefore live in love, do everything to bring your soul to perfection while still on earth, and one day you will be blessed in abundance and, as true helpers, also be able to carry out redemptive work in the beyond for those who, through their own fault, have remained in darkness and can only reach light and freedom with great effort ….

Amen

Wisdom from God is unlimited …. inexhaustible born ….

B.D. 7310 from March 17th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

The knowledge which can be offered to you through My spirit is inexhaustible. As long as you stay on earth you will be able to constantly increase in wisdom, but this supply will never come to an end, even if you spend eternities in the light of wisdom, for My kingdom is inexhaustible, My nature is unlimited and thus also the wisdom which constantly flows forth from Me. But you humans are still too limited to grasp such a saying …. precisely because the limitation of your knowledge is a sign of imperfection, whereas I, as a supremely perfect being, know no limitation and the same therefore also applies to the outflow of My perfect being. Thus you would be able to be taught for eternities, i.e. I would be able to address you for eternities and impart ever new wisdom to you …. and ever brighter shining light would shine upon you, in whose area of radiation you are. But as long as you stay on earth I must also take your capacity into account, because you still lack a great deal for perfection, because you are still very far away from the perfection of your being …. Nevertheless, My love for you is infinitely deep and wants to make you happy …. For this reason it conveys as much spiritual knowledge as possible to you and only ever demands a joyful acceptance from you, a desire for it, a hunger for the right nourishment for your soul. And the more thirsty you are for knowledge, the more questions you ask Me, the more joyfully and willingly I will answer you, for it is now (only) up to you to what extent you desire …. and you will receive without limitation. You are sitting at the source from which you are constantly allowed to draw, and you should make use of this, you should desire clarification about all questions which move you, because I have given you the assurance that I will also answer your questions. And you can be certain that the spring will never be exhausted, that ever new wisdoms will delight you according to your own desire. But also be satisfied when I offer you light food, because I know exactly what will be beneficial for yourselves and also for those to whom you offer the food again. I consider each individual according to his desire, and each individual shall also feel addressed by Me, which is why I truly also know what food each individual needs. But at the right time My light of wisdom and love also shines particularly brightly because I see which desire awakens in the human heart and I also want to make these hearts happy with it. You will all receive what you desire. But it is My joy if you desire and are also insatiable in this desire, for My table is richly laid and you will truly not need to hunger or starve, and everything your heart desires in terms of spiritual nourishment will be at your disposal. For the fountain of life is inexhaustible, the spring from which the living water flows is inexhaustible, My love is infinitely great and My wisdom unsurpassable …. And thus My love will still present you with many a wisdom, and My gifts of grace will make you happy and again and again stimulate you to ask new questions, and you will never be restricted by Me, because I want you to receive the deepest wisdom, yet I can always consider you according to your degree of maturity, which, however, can constantly increase and constantly reveal deeper wisdom to you if you strive for it yourselves. And you need never fear that I will remain silent if you seriously request clarification …. For My spirit guides you into truth, as I have promised ….

Amen

Answers to questions …. Serious examination of the origin ….

B.D. 7311 from March 18th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

I want to answer your every question providing you are capable of completely closing yourselves to the world and its impression, thus with an utterly empty heart only yearn for My presence, then you will also be able to hear My Word without any kind of ambiguity …. for which it is absolutely imperative to put all earthly matters aside. This is also why so much is being endorsed as ‘My Word’ where a person’s thoughts were still too involved, where this ‘silence in God’ had not been established, where My answer had not been waited for. It always depends on the degree of love and unity with Me that and in which way a person is being addressed by Me, and someone who completely hands himself over to Me need not fear misconstruing the communication he receives …. He will, without hesitation, be able to endorse everything as My merciful expression, and therefore he will also unhesitatingly be able to ask questions but they will certainly be mainly of a spiritual content, because a child which totally hands itself over to Me will be far more interested in spiritual than earthly questions. Yet people are still very attached to the world and often desire explanations about purely worldly things, which they always present to Me in the hope that I will give them the desired answer. And this jeopardizes the judgment of My Words, for people with predominantly earthly interests are not yet mature enough to completely close themselves off and enter into a confidential dialogue with Me, their thoughts will more likely keep digressing and return to the world from which they are unable to disconnect themselves completely …. And this makes a divine communication questionable if not entirely impossible …. Therefore, you should very seriously examine that which you endorse as ‘coming from Me’ and expect your fellow human beings to believe that I Myself Am the Originator of it.

Only he, who was able to establish this heartfelt bond with Me in complete seclusion and allowed no worldly thoughts of any kind to enter during his heart’s association with Me, may feel certain and endorse the results of his heartfelt dialogue with Me as being completely without error …. He can also ask any question and it will be answered to him, because it is always his will not to fall prey to error and because the truth means everything to him. I speak to everyone, but whether My Word or his own thoughts come to his mind is determined by the human being’s own seriousness of will as soon as it concerns questions which are not only of spiritual substance …. where there is therefore a risk that worldly thoughts creep in and thereby easily endanger the truth …. whereas, on the other hand, purely spiritual thoughts will guarantee inner composure and seclusion with the result that the answers will be appropriately clear and truthful. If you want to speak with Me then I also demand your undivided dedication to Me …. But then I will also take complete possession of you and all results of thoughts will be the outpouring of My love into your hearts …. If, however, you still share your desire for Me with the world then you cannot expect of Me that I make Myself heard by you and you must therefore very seriously examine yourselves and thus exercise self-criticism, which will always be beneficial for you if it is your will that I should address you. For the pure truth must be desired by you, otherwise you will never be able to receive pure truth ….

Amen

Re-incarnation ….

B.D. 7312 from March 20th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

You all should know that you cannot deliberately repeat your earthly progress as a human being, you have to make use of this unique opportunity if you don’t want to be plagued by bitter remorse one day because you entered the spiritual kingdom in an immature state. The assumption that you can repeat earthly life as often as you like until you have reached the degree of perfection lets you strive half-heartedly for perfection. As a result, this teaching is detrimental for your soul’s salvation, it is a danger, as due to this teaching many people neglect to improve their soul in the hope to make up for their failure in another life. But this teaching is misguided ….

Your embodiment as a human being is a gift of grace which you should fully utilise, because your process of development is finished once you enter the kingdom of the beyond, and any further development depends on your attitude in the spiritual kingdom, which can vary considerably …. With good will, the light beings’ active help and effective intercession by people you can still progress in the beyond and achieve beatitude, but you will need to employ far more strength than on earth …. however, you can also descend if you are completely obstinate and ill-willed at heart.

In this state it would be a truly undivine act to allow you another embodiment on earth which would never assure your spiritual progress, because free will is always decisive, and because of free will you lose your past memory. But with good will you can also attain this maturity in the spiritual kingdom, which will guarantee you a transmission of light and thus a degree of happiness, which can constantly be increased …. And then you will have no more desire for life in the flesh and to experience another incarnation on earth ….

It can happen in individual cases for very special reasons, but they should never be considered to be the norm and used as justification for the doctrine of re-incarnation. For the issue is not that people could not attain a particular degree of maturity …. because Jesus Christ died on the cross so that a human being can gain complete freedom from the form during a single life on earth as human being. It is just that the human being’s will has failed and therefore he also has to accept the consequences …. a miserable state in the spiritual kingdom, which he can neither stop nor change as he likes. Besides, in accordance with God’s will everything ascends, only the human being’s will can be regressively orientated …. And thus it would contradict God’s plan of divine order if a being would be placed by His will into a previous form which it had not used correctly. This is a misuse of a gift of grace for which the being has to give account and accept the consequences.

Re-incarnation can certainly take place in special cases, when souls of light embody themselves on earth in order to render helpful services, who express their immense love for suffering humanity by accepting another life on earth as human being in order to help people in spiritual distress. Hence it can be indeed believed that there are people on this earth who descended from above, but they themselves do not know it, and although their fellow human beings might suspect it they cannot say so for sure. But far less believable are assertions that people without any discernible spiritual mission have incarnated several times on earth already ….

The teaching of re-incarnation is dangerous for people because individual cases are being generalised, and the person’s responsibility during the short time of his earthly life will be ignored and gives way to carelessness in someone who believes that he will always be able to make up what he neglected to do …. The realisation in the kingdom of the beyond will be a heavy burden to him one day, because no human being will ever be able to make up for his neglect during his earthly life due to his own fault. He can certainly still achieve a degree of light there and increase it continuously, but he will never be able to attain the degree of childship to God, which can only be attained on earth …. And in addition, he also runs the great risk to descend even further in the spiritual kingdom if he does not take the opportunity and endeavours to ascend with the help of the beings of light ….

Every mentally directed thought is detachment from the opponent ….

B.D. 7313 from March 21st 1959, taken from Book No. 77

Every thought is blessed which applies to Me or the spiritual kingdom, for it first testifies to the inner life, the life which is to be lived next to the earthly life if the latter is to be successful for the soul. Anyone who only thinks about the kingdom which is not of this world has already taken a step towards Me, and he will also follow this path and no longer deviate from it. For the spiritual kingdom will no longer let go of anyone who has paid attention to it, because I Myself will no longer let him go once this path to Me has been taken. Earthly life as such does indeed demand a lot of thoughts from the human being, because the human being lives in the midst of the world and therefore also has to turn his thoughts towards the world and its demands …. But nevertheless, this is not the actual life which completely satisfies the human being if he is of a will turned towards Me. Only the one who still belongs to My adversary will find full satisfaction …. Therefore, every spiritually directed thought already proves the striving towards Me, and such a person can no longer be satisfied by the world alone, he will often let his thoughts wander into a kingdom which he suspects to be his true home and therefore again and again mentally returns to it. And such spiritual thoughts will also always be connected with thoughts of Me Myself, and therefore I can also take possession of the soul and hold it so that it can no longer escape Me and My love and voluntarily allows itself to be captivated by My love. Thus, as soon as a person reflects on the goal and purpose of his earthly life, as soon as he thinks about his God and creator, as soon as he tries to fathom His nature and is willing to enter into His will, as soon as he demands to be instructed correctly and truly about all such questions, his thoughts will move outside of the merely worldly life and I Myself will become the focus of his inner life …. And then I can truly also influence the human being and always with success, for free will moved him to his thoughts, and this free will also gives Me the right to take possession of his soul and to now provide it with everything it needs for maturing and perfection. Every spiritually directed thought towards Me or My kingdom is a voluntary detachment from My adversary, which I can and will then also make full use of in order to completely redeem him, for such spiritual thoughts will irrevocably be directed to the cross of Golgotha, where the divine redeemer Jesus Christ will accomplish the redemption, thus completely freeing the human being from the enemy and opponent of life …. But the fact that the human being’s thoughts are directed towards the cross will always be the concern and endeavour of all beings of light which surround the human being and which also try to influence him mentally on My behalf, because the human being’s will and strength alone is still weak as long as he is still under My adversary’s control. However, every spiritually directed thought also gives these beings of light the right to exert their influence, and thus every soul which is only of good will is also in the constant care of spiritual guardians, and it will also certainly one day reach the goal for the purpose of which it walks across this earth ….

Neither kingdom of light nor kingdom of darkness may be proven ….

B.D. 7314 from March 22nd 1959, taken from Book No. 77

You would be able to look into immeasurable heights but also into immeasurable depths if you were given this gift, but then you would no longer be able to walk the earthly path of completely uninfluenced will, for you would have lost this freedom of will through the sight of the glory in the spiritual kingdom as well as the abysmal darkness which would paralyse you with horror in every decision of will. But both are present, and you will also be taught the knowledge of it so that you will live your life responsibly. You can therefore reckon with it, and you can shape your way of life accordingly, but you will always lack evidence, and that is good for yourselves. But one day you will experience that what was presented to you in earthly life was truth, and then you will enjoy the glories with gratitude and praise or also remember in deep remorse the earthly existence which could have released you from the torment and agony of darkness if you had used it correctly. And yet, every proof must remain denied to you, and you only have to orient yourselves according to the word of God, which repeatedly reminds you of both the glories as well as the punishments in eternity in order to motivate you to live according to God’s will, which is made known to you through His word. And the fulfilment of His word is not so difficult for you that you need to fail, for God only requires love for Him and your neighbour …. in order to make you happy one day with all His glories in the spiritual kingdom. But as soon as you continue to remain unkind, as an inheritance from His adversary whom you once followed into the abyss, you will also be granted the dreadful fate of the abyss, you will eternally remain in darkness again and eternally not become free from the one who has kept you bound for eternities. And if God’s word is repeatedly presented to you, it is only His infinite love for you that He wants to protect you from the dreadful fate of the renewed fall into the abyss …. For His love wants to make you happy, you who are His children and came forth from His love …. His love wants to give you eternal glories in the spiritual kingdom which are incomparable but promised to everyone who fulfils God’s commandments …. which “He has prepared for those who love Him ….” God only requires love from you, and anyone can give this love to Him, and he shall give it to Him of his own free will, without the fear of punishment or the expectation of unimagined glories driving him to do so …. Love alone is what God wants from you, and His love will make you happy for all eternity ….

The adversary's temptations by means of worldly enticements ….

B.D. 7315 from March 24th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

If you are craving the world and its pleasures then you will know that you are approached by the tempter who wants to win you over again for the world which you endeavour to escape from. The realm of earthly joy and pleasure is his domain and he truly governs it in a way that many people fall prey to it, for they all crave earthly and physical joys and pleasures and they will all get what they want if they pay homage to the world and accept all enticements he presents before their eyes. He cannot beguile people by any other means than through the world, for once they have chosen the spiritual kingdom they will truly not comply with his will and turn their thoughts towards him …. In that case, however, he will come to meet them through the world and its attractions and a person must be very strong-willed indeed in order to resist the temptations …. Therefore, take note that when you seek to gain worldly pleasures you are at risk of succumbing to his artful temptations and forearm yourselves to resist him. Turn your attention towards the spiritual world again with increased vigour; hold yourselves to account as to what extent you bear up against such temptations, which you can be certain to be the adversary’s work who wants to turn you against God and His kingdom and therefore will not shy away from using any means to achieve this goal. Admittedly, he will not be able to achieve much with a serious aspirant apart from the fact that the human being fulfils the requirements of life he has to fulfil, since he lives in the midst of the world and should prove himself in it. Nevertheless, the decisive factor remains the feeling of the heart, for it shall not allow itself to be captivated by desiring earthly joys and pleasures, since it depends on the heart’s desire as to how far the human being will distance himself from the spiritual kingdom and return to the earthly world again. The temptations by God’s adversary will not stop, he will also fight for the souls he is in danger of losing until the end, he will not let up until the end from pushing the spiritual kingdom aside in favour of the material world, and thus the soul must remain determined and resist. And the more progress it has made in its striving, the easier it can defend itself and the lesser will be the risk of complying with his will again, for the spiritual kingdom will also captivate the soul and not let go of it again, if its will is inclined towards God and thus no longer belongs to the adversary but releases itself increasingly more from him …. Then the human being will no longer be affected by temptations, the world will have lost its attraction and only the spiritual kingdom will be desirable for him, the unity with God will be the soul’s only and highest goal and it will certainly attain this goal ….

Amen

Sensations of body and soul during word reception ….

B.D. 7316 from March 25th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

The worldly-directed human being only feels with his physical senses, whereas the spiritually striving person feels with his spiritual sense, and although the body is not aware of this the soul is in a state of bliss as soon as it establishes contact with Me in order to hear My word. And to provide the soul with this state quite often should be your constant endeavour, you should use every free minute to send your thoughts into the spiritual kingdom, and your soul will truly derive great benefit from it, even if you don’t physically feel anything of an elevation of the soul. But if the latter were the case, the contact with Me would already be subject to a slight compulsion or would arise more from an egoistic urge, because the body would like to create a sense of well-being for itself and for the sake of which it only desired the exchange between Me and itself. But the will should decide completely freely, and therefore every exchange will always presuppose a willingness to make a small sacrifice as long as the human being himself is not filled with such a strong desire to hear Me and My word that this very desire drives him into contact with Me. This state is indeed the right one in which I gladly communicate with My child, however, I also allow Myself to be satisfied if I have the opportunity to express Myself to you humans at all, because I recognize the importance and urgency of proclaiming the pure gospel to people again, and because this requires the very intimate bond which the human being has to establish of his own free will. He cannot be forced into it, nor can he be arbitrarily placed by Me into a state where he mechanically only fulfils My will and accepts My word from above …. He has to seek contact with Me completely freely of his own accord and want Me to speak to him for the blessing of all those to whom he now wants to convey My word. And I will instruct him and again and again supply him with spiritual nourishment for himself and for all souls which want to satisfy themselves with the bread of heaven. And even if his senses feel nothing of a union, but the soul is delighted and enriched and delights in the gifts which flow to it abundantly as evidence of My love, which the soul feels. Again and again the human being has to seek the bond with Me of his own accord in order to be strengthened anew again and again by My supply of strength, yet one day it will experience the blessing that its own will was strong enough to establish the bond with Me and to allow itself to be addressed by Me. It will receive the reward, but the reward must never be so openly noticeable that the bond is only established for the sake of the reward. And that is why every reception of the word is always preceded by the activity of the will, which has to declare itself willing to listen and thus to accept the bread of heaven, the right food and the right drink for the soul …. And this will experience great blessings and be able to constantly mature, for My word is not without effect, My word is blessed with My strength which helps you all to attain perfection ….

Amen

Challenges of the adversary …. Jesus' fears on the mount of olives ….

B.D. 7317 from March 26th 1959, taken from Book No. 77

You will still have to prove yourselves many times, for the temptations will not let up until the end. But you should also consider that unusual gifts of grace will make it easier for you to withstand everything, that you will also receive a significant amount of strength through the supply of My word from above, to which I have to say again and again that your soul truly feels this, even if you are physically in great weakness and believe that you are not strong enough to resist. I stand by you, I don’t leave you alone, I know about your struggle and your spiritual hardship, I know about your physical hardship and weaknesses, but I have promised you My help if only you turn to Me, and I will certainly grant you this help, for I love you and don’t want to lose you to My adversary who plays his game with you in an undetectable way in order to win you over. Yet don’t let him have this triumph but simply turn to Me and I will help you. It is precisely the spiritual striving which he seeks to prevent and hinder you in every way, and if you know this you should use yourselves with increased strength by praying for the time being only for strengthening in your weakness …. and it will visibly come to you, only it requires you to overcome it, and this has to be mustered by your free will. But you will be granted a glorious victory, for the soul has its advantage from every battle it has passed, even if you yourselves can only register the feeling of love fulfilment towards Me; yet you will always become stronger and remain victorious over him …. And remember My work of redemption and the strong temptations before …. The adversary also tried to gain control over Me, he also tried to hold Me back from the work I wanted to accomplish, he also filled Me with a feeling of profound weakness and deprived Me of all faith in My power of resistance. And I prayed as a human being and experienced strengthening and thus became the victor over him because My will was strong to redeem you humans. And as long as you direct your will towards Me you need not fear that I will hand you over to My adversary. I will wrestle with him for your soul and truly, I will win it for Myself for all eternity ….

Amen
