Admonition regarding the end ….

B.D. 7364 from May 16th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

In view of the near end you will be admonished time and again to remember your actual task, which concerns your soul’s full maturing and not only the fulfilment of your bodily needs. You should always be aware of the fact that every day might be the last one for you, that the next day you might no longer be able to use earthly goods and that you will only keep that which the soul had acquired in earthly life. And how deprived will you then feel if you have no spiritual possessions to show for, how poor you will be despite your great earthly wealth and reputation …. None of it will follow you into eternity; spiritual goods, however, cannot be taken from you, they are your possessions and will make you exceedingly happy when you enter the spiritual realm. And all of you can count on having only a short lifetime left, regardless of how old you are. Thank God for it if the grace of a long life on earth was granted to you already, but also bear in mind that you could die any day, for no-one knows the day and the hour of his passing away from this earth. However, in view of the end many people will lose their life prematurely, and this will always be God’s will, Who tries to save what can still be saved …. Not everyone will be able to survive the events which will yet happen on earth before the end, and besides, it can also still be an extraordinary blessing if the human being is allowed to leave the earth sooner in order to still find an opportunity in the spiritual realm for the maturing of his soul, because he is negligent in his psychological task. Were you able to foresee, you would truly not accomplish your earthly work so keenly, you would …. if you are of good will, focus on the work of improving your souls, for you would recognise that all earthly efforts and worries are useless in view of what lies ahead of you. But your way of life may not be enforced upon you, you must choose the right path voluntarily, you must accept the admonitions and warning presented to you by God through His Word and comply with them, and it will only be a blessing for you. And anyone with open eyes and ears can see for himself what is happening in the world and how chaotic everything is, which irrevocably must lead to a catastrophic end.

And if he listens to God’s Word, if he listens to His servants’ message, it should be easy for him to lead an appropriate way of life …. if he merely believes that he is close to the end and believes the information God conveys to him through his messengers ….Not much time is left but it would be sufficient for your soul to still attain the necessary maturity, providing you seriously tackle this work …. of being good, of making an effort to treat your fellow human beings with love, of accomplishing selfless works of neighbourly love, of looking towards God and of opening your heart and ears for Him when He speaks to you …. You should only want to do what is right and appeal to God for strength and grace …. And truly, He will look after you and grant you an abundance of strength and grace, for He will leave no-one alone and without help who turns to Him for help and wants to live a right way of life according to God’s will. He will be seized by God’s love and guided such that everything approaching him will contribute towards attaining maturity of soul. But he must seriously reflect on his actual purpose of existence and not hesitate, for there is not much time left for any of you …. He should listen to what God’s messengers reveal to him and arrange his life accordingly …. And he will surely do the right thing, for the time you were granted for the maturing of your souls is approaching its end ….

Amen

The outpouring of the spirit ….

B.D. 7365 from May 17th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

The outpouring of My spirit into a receptive vessel is the most delectable gift you humans can be offered as long as you live on earth, for it is the direct bond between your Father and you, which enables you to speak to Him directly. I pour My spirit into you …. I choose a vessel for Myself into which I can let My spirit flow, which subsequently informs you of Me, of My nature, of My reign and activity, and of My infinite love for all beings I created. I want to be in contact with these beings. In the past, this contact took place such that My Word flowed from Me directly into My created beings, and they understood this Word and were able to verbally respond to Me again …. However, this changed in as much as that the beings, due to their own fault, became incapable of hearing My Word …. it changed in as much as they listened to a different voice and therefore were no longer capable of understanding what would have affected them from My mouth had they remained receptive for it. But they turned away from Me, My ray of love could no longer affect them, and thus they were no longer able to receive the expression of My love …. My Word …. which can only flow into entirely pure vessels and can only be understood by beings which are inclined towards Me …. and not into those beings which still totally opposed and rejected Me, so that My illumination of love could not affect them. Consequently, they no longer heard My Word, instead, they listened to and followed the voice even more of the one who, as My adversary, was also to blame for their apostasy from Me …. And they remained in this state of inability of hearing My voice for an infinitely long time, for their distance from Me is so vast that My illumination of love can no longer affect them either, since this requires their voluntary approach to Me, which can only happen in a certain stage of development …. as a human being with free will ….Then it is indeed possible to enter into such close contact with Me that the human being can hear My voice. However, in that case he must comply with the conditions which enable the latter to happen:

He must shape himself such that I Myself can take abode in him, so that My spirit can pour into a heart which has been prepared to be worthy of My presence …. for when My spirit pours into a person I Myself Am present with him …. This outpouring of My spirit upon people only became possible as a result of My crucifixion, since, prior to that, humanity was still burdened by the original sin of falling away from Me, and this original sin kept their heart closed. I was unable to enter it, because My presence presupposes absolute purity of heart, forgiveness of sins, and thus redemption from all guilt …. And this happened through My death on the cross, which was the atonement for people’s every sin, providing they wanted to be redeemed from them. And in the purified heart of a person who is redeemed through Jesus Christ’ blood, My spirit can flow, but this first requires the person’s will again, who must make such heartfelt contact with Me that he can hear My gentle voice in himself …. that he allows My spirit to speak to his indwelling spiritual spark and listens to what I have to say to him …. I want to pour My spirit upon all flesh …. You are all able to prepare yourselves as a vessel into which My spirit can flow, but without this will of yours you wait in vain for Me to speak to you. But if your will is ready to listen to Me, you will be able to achieve truly glorious results on account of My spirit’s activity, for where My spirit is working there is the most brightly radiating light, there is profound wisdom, there you will recognise My infinite love and My power …. Where My spirit flows there is no more darkness, it disperses the night and a bright day is dawning which will never end …. Oh, if only you would all cleanse your hearts in order to be able to receive Me, so that I could speak to you, so that My Father-Spirit would be able to address you, as it was in the beginning …. Then all darkness would truly have left you, you would be able to move within the light which illuminates all places and reveals everything which was still secret to you before …. All of you could make it possible for Me to speak to you again, as before, and thereby make you happy, for My Word is the direct transfer of My strength of love, and My illumination of love delights the heart if it can enter …. Therefore, prepare your heart as a vessel into which My spirit can pour, fulfil the condition by cleansing your heart of all cravings and impure thoughts by making an effort to live a life of love and constantly comply with My will …. Prepare yourselves as a receiving vessel for My spirit and you will thereby establish the same relationship with Me again, as in the beginning …. I will be able to delight you with My love and constantly speak to you, and you will understand Me and be blissfully happy. For you will attain light and freedom, you will become again as you were in the beginning: perfect beings of light which, as My children, will create and work with Me according to My will ….

Amen

Effect oft the divine word from above ….

B.D. 7366 from May 18th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

Spiritually you can already speak of progress if you have the great grace of being taught directly from above, for then the spirit in you must also have been awakened to life. But these instructions must also be put into practice, i.e. you must do the will of the one Who instructs you …. you have to fulfil My commandments of love in order to also receive the blessing of My promises. The human being is blessed whom I can address Myself, but precisely for this reason he is also obliged to make himself worthy of this great grace by doing everything I require of him …. to live according to My word himself and to take care of the spreading of what he receives directly from Me. Thus I also poured out the spirit upon My disciples and sent them out into the world because they were to proclaim everything they had experienced through Me and continued to experience through My spirit. For only those people who have been taught by Me Myself are suitable for proclaiming My gospel, because they are only able to distribute correct teaching material which is not offered to people contaminated but which was received directly from Me in all purity and wisdom, as My love wants to send to you humans. In his still imperfect state the human being is always inclined to change whatever is offered to him, and with time every teaching will therefore also no longer remain in its original purity …. But a changed teaching will lose strength and effect and finally be completely ineffective and have no influence on the human being’s soul …. But since the soul is meant to mature during its earthly life it must also constantly be offered wholesome nourishment which alone can be My word for it, which is offered to it unadulterated as food. And this word, in turn, must flow to people directly from Me by allowing My spirit to pour into an open vessel …. by addressing a person Myself who has prepared himself to be a vessel for My flow of spirit …. and to whom I can therefore directly convey My word from above. He will receive delicious spiritual knowledge and thus also be able to distribute it as nourishment to the souls which desire it …. And these souls will mature and already attain a certain maturity on earth that they need not fear death, because their termination of physical life only signifies the transition into the spiritual kingdom, which is their true home. But a certain maturity of soul must be present for this, which alone can provide the soul with My word if the human being willingly listens to it and lives it out, if he endeavours to not only be a listener but a doer of My word. Much knowledge is imparted to the human being, profoundest wisdom is made accessible to him, but always for the purpose that he recognizes My love, wisdom and omnipotence from it, that he learns to love Me and wholeheartedly strives for unification with Me …. My word has to come alive in the human being’s heart, it has to be lived out and will then produce the most glorious fruits, a soul which increasingly purifies itself and becomes permeable to light and which can enter the kingdom of the beyond as a spirit of light at its death. But only My pure word from above has this effect on the soul, only My direct address will give a soul the strength, and My direct address is experienced by all who receive the word through the spirit …. and accept it as My word, who let it take effect on them and obey it. I am united with all those in the word, all those hear Me Myself, for I speak to all who want to hear Me. These will always hear My voice because they, too, open their hearts to Me and grant Me entrance since I knock at their door …. Their spirit has awakened to life and seeks connection with the father-spirit of eternity …. And where I find such open hearts, there I enter above and take abode in them. My spirit will now be able to constantly work there, it will instruct the human being from within and all his actions will be determined by My spirit, which will now truly guide him correctly and help the soul to perfection ….

Amen

Purifying the heart ….

B.D. 7367 from May 19th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

I want to be the only ruler in My house, and therefore you should have discarded everything if you want to receive Me in your heart, for there may not be any space for the other one anymore, because I cannot dwell where he still resides. It is certainly a difficult task for you to completely purify your heart, to cast off all cravings, to fight against all faults and weaknesses and to prepare your heart for Me as an abode where everything is bright and clear and where I can subsequently stay in order to make you already happy on earth as well as one day in eternity. For My presence will result in this beatitude, My presence will not remain ineffective, My presence signifies for you the soul’s increasing maturity, wisdom and strength to accomplish that which was previously impossible for you. When I Am within of you, you will no longer feel lonely and forsaken; you will know yourselves safe and secure at your Father’s heart, that you will no longer be threatened by dangers, that My adversary will no longer be able to oppress you and that you are ever closer to your perfection, because your unity with Me is assured to you, which means everything to you. But first you will have to purify your hearts, you must do everything in your power to throw out the one who wants to possess you forever but who is your ruin. But I, too, want to take abode in you and possess you forever; however, I cannot share you with him, your heart must be entirely My possession, and this can only happen if your love belongs entirely to Me, and that means that you no longer desire or would like to possess anything else but Me alone ….

Hence, all earthly craving must have been eradicated; you should not desire anything else but only to be your Father’s child and to be able to communicate like children with your Father. And heartfelt contact also requires a heartfelt union, the child must be close to the Father, the Father must be with His child …. thus take abode in your hearts. You are unaware of the supreme bliss felt by the child when it feels utterly secure in the Father’s arms, when it is no longer afraid, when it no longer needs to fear adversity, hardship or persecutions, when it has found peace within itself, which only heartfelt Fatherly love can bestow on the child. And all of you can attain this peace if only you are serious about purifying your heat so that you will be able to receive Me in it …. All anxiety will disappear, all restlessness will leave you, weaknesses and afflictions will be unknown to you, you will take your paths in strength and clarity because you will no longer walk alone but will live your earthly life in constant company with Me and thus your enemy …. My adversary …. will no longer be able to pressurise you either, since he will no longer find any crevice in which he could hide, for My presence in your heart has made it so bright that he is no longer able to hide anywhere, for he takes flight from the light and even more from My presence. Therefore, if you want to attain inner peace then you should merely allow Me to move into your heart and purify it from everything which might still prevent Me from entering …. And I want to help you with this work as soon as I perceive that you yearn for My presence …. Then I will grant you the strength to do everything in your power in order to make your heart worthy as an abode for Me, and I will gladly move in and remain with you forever, for I then will never leave My child again once it has completely handed itself over to Me ….

Amen

Harmful consequences of misguided teachings ….

B.D. 7368 from May 20th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

Misguided teachings will lead you humans into wrong thinking, and a wrong doctrine will always result in incorrect conclusions which, in turn, result in further wrong thoughts. A misguided teaching can rightly be called a satanic deception, for the thereby evolving thought structure extends to a point where it finally becomes so inextricable that a person will no longer be able to make head or tail of it himself, given that error and falsehood can never result in light and clarity. Hence, every misguided teaching should be challenged, it should be corrected from the start before it can spread and confuse human thought. A misguided teaching could also be recognised as such if the human being endeavoured to live in truth, because then he would only need to apply one measure: whether God’s love, wisdom and power is evident in every doctrine ….

If there is the least bit of doubt about God’s fundamental nature, Which is love, wisdom and might, then the doctrine is wrong. And there are many such teachings which do not pass the test for truth …. which do not testify of God’s love, neither of His wisdom nor of His might and therefore can flatly be rejected as misguided. But they are often particularly persistently endorsed because people are no longer interested in truth, they are indifferent as to whether they are living in error or in truth. They will never defend the truth equally obstinately since they rather hold on to error. This, too, is a sign of the approaching end: that people are increasingly more indignant the more clarification they should receive, that they rather live in darkness and have no desire for light …. And although some doctrines’ falsehood is blatantly obvious they reject every relevant explanation …. But they darken their own spiritual state progressively more and will find it increasingly harder to return to the truth, because they simply do not want to do so and their will cannot be compelled.

Consequently, every misguided teaching is a highly effective work of Satan , because people hold on to it. And there are many such misguided teachings which crept into the Gospel of Jesus Christ and which hardly can be presented as misguided teachings to people because they have no genuine desire for truth themselves. However, people do not want to hear that such misguided teachings have created a distorted image of God, although they would not be able to identify a God of love nor a God of wisdom and might, if they seriously cared to think about some of the teachings they adopted over a period of time as a result of custom or tradition and now defend as Gospel. But they cannot love an imperfect God either …. And if a teaching contributes towards the fact that God’s love or wisdom is questioned then it will not be possible for a person to wholeheartedly love Him as the highest and most perfect Being, and the right relationship of a child towards its Father can never be established because the person is lacking proper trust ….

And therefore every person should reflect on what he is expected to believe. First he should examine everything which is given to him in form of the Gospel to what extent it agrees with God’s perfection …. and you would be surprised how many doctrines would seem dubious to you, and are indeed dubious if you study them with good will and a desire for truth. You could contribute much yourselves towards your enlightenment but you have to want to live in truth …. You have to ask God to illuminate your spirit and enable you to recognise what is right, to help you recognise misguided teachings as such and to disassociate yourselves from them. For only truth will bring you joy, whereas every error will confuse your thoughts and finally make it impossible for you to form a correct judgment. God is love, God is wisdom, and God is might …. and if a doctrine does not testify of love, wisdom or might it rightfully can be rejected as a misguided teaching, and a person, who genuinely desires it, will receive an explanation ….

Amen

Redemption requires free will ….

B.D. 7369 from May 22nd 1959, taken from Book No. 78

I merely want your assurance that you want to listen to Me, and from that moment on your life will be focussed on your goal, for then it will be in My hands to lead and to teach you such that you will reach your goal. I cannot have a decisive influence on your earthly life as long as you have not voluntarily given Me this assurance, but I can instantly take your destiny into My hands as soon as this assurance has voluntarily taken place. If you understand that it concerns the battle for your soul between Me and My adversary, whom I have to grant justice insofar as that I won’t forcibly take from him what belongs to him …. then you will also understand that I first require this assurance for you to become and eternally remain My Own. It is only this free will which entitles Me to exert My influence and help you in the battle against the enemy of your souls, who will not cease fighting for you as long as you are not yet completely devoid of weaknesses and flaws, which identify you as his followers. Thus he has still power over you as long as you cannot detach yourselves from him completely, that is, as long as the adversary’s characteristics are still within you: faults, weaknesses, cravings and all kinds of vices, which are his inheritance since his apostasy from Me. As to whether your detachment from him will take place one day depends on your will …. for this reason I died on the cross for you as Jesus, the man, thus I redeemed you from his power. Prior to this it would have been impossible for you to withdraw from his power, since you had handed yourselves over to him as a result of the original sin and he would never have released you from his control. However, I paid for this sin with the crucifixion …. Consequently, the whole of the spiritual world would have been redeemed from that moment on if I did not respect the free will of those beings who opposed Me …. For every being’s will is free and it can stay with the lord of its own choice.

Therefore, My adversary’s followers can remain with him, and their will shall be respected, I will not forcibly snatch any being from My opponent which belongs to him and does not express the will to be released from its present lord. Hence, such a being will remain unredeemed even if it takes eternities before it desires to be delivered from him …. These beings are unredeemed despite My death on the cross …. But as soon as its free will turns to Me, as soon as the being in the state of a human, when it receives its free will again, deliberately turns away from My adversary and towards Me, thus as soon as it wants to become and remain My Own, My act of Salvation comes into force and I …. Jesus Christ and Father of eternity …. take possession of this person and start to release him from My adversary, which happens according to his strength of will to fight against his faults and weaknesses. And he can constantly request this willpower from Jesus Christ, and he will do it, too, because he believes in Him. The belief in Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation is the prerequisite for the person to appeal to him for the blessings of the act of Salvation. This is why an unbeliever cannot find redemption, for Jesus Christ Himself must strengthen the person’s will to release himself from the adversary. However, I will never ever leave anyone once he turns to Me voluntarily, and he can take his redemption as guaranteed, for I will tirelessly fight for him and through transferring strength to him will help him release himself from his faults and weaknesses. And time and again I will influence his thoughts, thus never exclude him from My loving care, consequently no person will remain unredeemed whose will strives towards Me, who tries to fulfil My will and deliberately withdraws from My adversary. I only require the human being’s will, I only require the acknowledgement of Jesus as Son of God and Redeemer of the world in Whom I Myself accomplished the act of Salvation for people, in order to then be able to grant them the blessings of the act of Salvation which consist of strengthening the human being’s will, of being able to receive the strength to achieve the re-transformation into love. And I only ask for a constant bond with Me so that the strength can always flow across to you and you can do justice to all spiritual and earthly tasks which are expected of you time and again in this earthly life. Only the direction of your will towards Me decides whether and when your redemption will take place, but in this way it is certain that it will happen, otherwise My act of Salvation would have been accomplished in vain, but this would have to be called the greatest misguided teaching if someone were to advocate it. Jesus Christ has redeemed all people, but only those who want to be redeemed will partake of the blessings of the act of Salvation …. But anyone who wants will indeed become blessed, because his will entitles Me to snatch the soul from My adversary because I have paid the purchase price for it with My blood ….

Amen

Free will and self-awareness ….

B.D. 7370 from May 23rd 1959, taken from Book No. 78

During the final period of development as a human being you are able to freely want and usually also act as you wish, because it is intended that you prove yourselves during your existence on this earth. It is not an arbitrary process, just as final success is not dependent on My arbitrary use of power, instead you humans determine the result of your soul’s earthly progress yourselves. For the soul’s maturing is the decisive factor, because the body is transient and only serves the soul during its short lifetime on earth in order to attain maturity. Hence the human being must be informed of the fact that it is up to him as to whether and how he uses his time on earth to become psychologically mature. And thus he should not rely on being granted a random act of grace on My part without his contribution …. he should know that he can receive unlimited grace but that it always depends on his will as to whether these blessings will take effect in him. For I can show him the heavenly kingdom quite plainly and even extend My hand to him so that he can reach it …. if it is not his own will to attain the heavenly kingdom all My gifts of grace will be futile, for they don’t compel his thoughts and actions but make it easier for every person to think and act correctly. First, free will has to become active, and the attitude of this will determines the success of earthly life …. Therefore no human being will be able to say that the direction of his will was predetermined, because this will is free.

The will is the human being’s innermost instinct, which was placed into him by Me, which is inherent in every self-aware being. Thus, the once-created spirits in My kingdom were able to enjoy their free will for as long as they were self-aware beings …. However, they lost their self-awareness when they plunged into the abyss of their own doing. For they distanced themselves from Me and this ever increasing distance also signified the hardening of the spiritual substance, which I subsequently shaped into creations of the most varied kinds. All these works of creation are in a state of ‘bound’ will …. The spiritual substances bound therein are not conscious of themselves as they are only parts of a once fallen original spirit which, by progressing through the various creations, shall return to Me again, which is deprived of its self-awareness until all the tiny particles have come together again and are allowed to embody themselves as a human being on Earth. Then it will also receive its free will back …. and the being will be able to freely want and think again and cannot be prevented from aiming its will in any direction. And no-one will be able to dispute the fact that his thoughts and his will are free, although he is frequently unable to implement both. However, it concerns the will, not always the deed, which can indeed be prevented through My will or My permission, but this will never rules out the actual will which tried to cause an action …. And you should watch your will …. hence every thought should make you question whether it is in harmony with My will. Your will should only ever be inclined towards Me, then it will be good. If it is your will to live in order to please Me you need no longer be afraid of not fulfilling your purpose of earthly life, for then you will always think and want what is right, then your soul will desire to regain its past state, it will subordinate its will to Mine and will have passed the test of earthly life when it may leave the earthly body in order to enter the kingdom of the beyond ….

Amen

Assurance of God's help in time of need ….

B.D. 7371 from May 24th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

None of you need fear the end as well as the time of adversity which precedes the end, for it is entirely up to you how you attune yourselves to Me …. in order to then be allowed to experience help whenever you need it. It will be a difficult time for all people who go through earthly life without strength from Me. And these will be people who have no bond with Me, even if they are earthly well off and seemingly in possession of great physical strength. But as soon as they lack strength from Me the last time in particular will affect them particularly hard and almost overwhelm them, for earthly much vitality will be demanded of them in order to meet all requirements, and spiritually they will not take refuge in Me, the source of strength from eternity, where they truly could receive unlimited strength to accomplish their task in life. In contrast, the battle of life will be considerably easier for My own, who will certainly also be confronted by the same demands but due to their close bond with Me are also in possession of strength and everything will only seem half as difficult to them as it is felt by their unbelieving fellow human beings. But the time of adversity is irrevocably coming …. It also has to come for the sake of the few undecided ones, so that they will also find the path to Me. And to have found this very path means to also belong to My own when the time is fulfilled:… No matter whether the individual’s earthly path comes to an end or the general end will follow …. anyone who belongs to My own need not fear anything, he will also be carried over the most difficult time, he will emerge victorious, and no matter how difficult the battles seem which the adversary and his vassals will wage against people …. or also: which the antichrist will wage against the believers in order to wrest them from Me before the end. But anyone who has once drawn strength from Me will turn to Me again and again for the supply of strength, and he will never be left without strength either, for he belongs to My own whom I truly help in the days of adversity, in the last days before the end. And then every thought of Me will already provide you with strength, for I will no longer let My own be snatched from My hand, I will watch over them and lead them through the last battle to victory Myself, as I have promised: “He who endures until the end shall be blessed ….” Only ever rely on My word, on My promises, which always mean help for you in every earthly and spiritual adversity. I will not abandon My own, and anyone who has already entered into a bond with Me, who calls upon Me because earthly or spiritual hardship frightens him, can count himself among My own …. I will not leave him without help and therefore he need not fear the coming time, I will always walk by his side and guide him through all adversity ….

Amen

Experiments …. Work of destruction ….

B.D. 7372a from May 25th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

Penetrating the core of the earth can only ever be permissible up to certain limits; once these limits are exceeded you will suffer the according consequences …. It will result in a work of destruction on such an enormous scale which is impossible for you humans to imagine because you will not survive such devastation but fall victim to these experiments at the same time. Human intellect studies and speculates and has already deeply penetrated the laws of nature. And these investigations could indeed be a blessing for fellow human beings were they conducted with the right attitude towards Me, so that it would be possible to direct the researchers’ thoughts according to divine order. Yet this right attitude towards Me is usually missing, and individual people are often drowned out by researchers and scientists who are distant from Me and whose thinking can therefore also go astray …. Which, in the case of experiments on the intended scale, will result in awful consequences: they will no longer be able to control the laws of nature, they will draw the wrong conclusions, and they will conduct tests on the basis of incorrect calculations and thus trigger forces which they will no longer be able to keep in check. People only calculate with earthly figures, but not with spiritual problems which, in view of their ignorance of God, are impossible for them to solve. But the basis of everything is spiritual, earth exists for a spiritual reason, and the goal of people inhabiting it should be to rise above the earthly realm and become mature for the spiritual kingdom, but of whose existence researchers and those who deem themselves knowledgeable don’t know very much or nothing at all or don’t want to believe in …. However, My works of creation are nevertheless at the mercy of people’s free will, and people will not be hindered from causing even the greatest extent of destruction …. Yet they will do this at their own detriment, insofar as that all living creations will lose their lives, be they human or animal, be they plants or other creations which contain bound spiritual substances for the purpose of higher development. And even if the latter is not believed, the lives of fellow human beings should nevertheless be taken into consideration ….

Even so, people deem themselves intelligent and wise, they believe that they can also penetrate the laws of nature which so far had been unknown to them. They are conducting experiments which they will constantly expand until they trigger hitherto unknown forces with the inconceivable result of a total destruction of the Earth’s surface, which no living being will survive, as has been predicted by seers and prophets since the start of this earth period. And I allow people’s will its freedom; however, My eternal plan of Salvation is based on this will, because I foresaw from the start that by that time people have reached such a low spiritual level it will necessitate a restoration of My eternal order again and thus I was able to base My plan of Salvation on it without enslaving people’s will. For they themselves will be the architects of the end of this earth, they themselves will determine the date despite the preceding warnings and admonitions, despite the continuous references to their wrongdoing, as long as they are not in association with their God and Creator of eternity, Who then would also truly be able to guide their thoughts and intentions correctly without coercing their will. But people don’t want to believe that they are approaching such a work of destruction of Earth, and they cannot be warned in any other way than through My Word, which is conveyed to them from above …. But if they incline their hearts towards Me of their own accord, they will also become enlightened and refrain by themselves from further experiments …. Yet there are only a few of them and they will be unable to assert themselves, even though they recognise the immense danger which threatens the human race …. But the majority will be opposed and won’t let go of a plan which will result in the end of the earth. And because of their freedom of will they cannot and will not be stopped by My side because, according to My wise counsel, it will further countless beings’ higher development again, because I know how to guide everything, even that which is bad, such that it will nevertheless still result in beneficial consequences and precisely this is My plan of Salvation which will therefore also be implemented according to My love and wisdom ….

Experiments …. Work of destruction ….

B.D. 7372b from May 26th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

I truly know what is beneficial for all the beings I once created …. I know how effective everything will be, and I can also direct the effect of everything such that it will only be good for the development of the spirits …. And so My adversary’s truly satanic actions during the last days will merely result in the fact that most of his followers will be snatched from him again and bound into matter, thus they will be removed from him and his influence for an infinitely long time. He believes he has won the spirits over from Me and owns them again, nevertheless he will lose them and the spiritual substance will start its higher development once more. For My love will never end, time and again My love will create new possibilities for development in order to help the spirits’ ascent. And My love will time and again also find new ways …. Even if the being in the state of free will, as a human being, very frequently conducts itself contrary to My eternal plan and endangers higher development …. I will repeatedly restore order again which is and remains divine law; but never to the detriment of the spirits and always with the goal of deifying the beings which are still very distant from this state. Therefore, regardless of what happens in this world …. My love and wisdom knows every outcome and will always steer it for the benefit of the spiritual beings, and the final goal will always be their salvation, their return to Me and the perfection of the souls …. The final goal will be the attainment of the original state, where the being, as an ‘image of God’, will be able to work and create with Me in beatitude ….

World turnaround is inevitable ….

B.D. 7373 from June 14th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

The turning point of the world will take place, time is shortening more and more until the end, you humans are approaching this end with giant strides. And if you were able to overlook the world picture in its entirety, it would be quite understandable to you that a change of world must come about. But you would also be incapable of any activity due to your horror, and yet you should still be constantly active until the end, for every day you are still allowed to spend on earth is a grace. The spiritual chaos is so great that there is no stopping it …. The only thing left is for the individual to save himself by working on himself in order to either be allowed to experience the spiritual turning point at the end and to be able to enter the paradise of the new earth or to be called away beforehand in order to be able to make use of another opportunity to mature in the kingdom of the beyond, which will then also no longer exist. But people do not know how close they are to this turning point in the world …. And they unswervingly create and strive for earthly goods, they only live for the earthly world, they seek joys and pleasures of all kinds and don’t think of their souls. But again and again they shall be warned, and again and again a call shall sound in their ears that the end is coming, that it is closer than they think and that it will have a dreadful effect on all who don’t want to believe and don’t remember their souls ….

Grace of truth ….

B.D. 7374 from June 21st 1959, taken from Book No. 78

In the night of death there are many people who lack the light of knowledge because they do not desire it. The light could shine on you all, you could all find yourselves in its bright glow, and you could all be inwardly happy to know what was still alien to you at the beginning of your embodiment …. of your existence as a human being and the reason for it, of the purpose and aim of earthly existence. But you are still moving on earth in darkness, you have not yet increased in knowledge, you are still as ignorant as at the beginning of your embodiment, and you will not reach the light for a long time either because you do not seek it. And it is your own will which is to blame for this, it is to blame for the fact that you allow yourselves to be fed knowledge and unhesitatingly accept it as truth without examining it afterwards …. It is your own fault that you do not think about what has been presented to you. And one day you will regret this very much, for you had the gift of being able to think and left it unused. All you had to do was turn to Me and speak to Me seriously one day in the desire to learn the truth from Me. Anyone who does so can be completely certain that I will kindle the light in him, that it will become bright in him, that he will be instructed in the truth, that the error will be brightly illuminated for him, and he will always be able to distinguish truth from error …. And then he will see in what night humanity moves and why such darkness is spread over the earth …. Then he will also know that every person has to do on his own what leads him to truth: that every person has to come to Me if he desires light, if he wants to attain realization as long as he lives on this earth. But then he will also be blissfully happy, for to possess the truth is something very delicious, because only the truth can prepare the soul’s fate, which is a glorious one for it in the spiritual kingdom. Truth alone leads to Me, truth alone leads to complete unification, because truth reveals everything that gives him information and about My nature, about My love, wisdom and omnipotence, and because only in possession of truth is the human being able to love Me correctly and this love establishes the union of you with Me. And this is My most precious gift of grace, that I constantly distribute truth to the one who desires it and turns to Me Myself to receive it from My hand. This gift of grace is available to all of you, but who uses it? Who desires to be taught by Me Myself in all truth? There are only a few, but these will one day be immeasurably happy, for they will enter the kingdom of the beyond with a wealth which can no longer be taken from them, with which they can work for their happiness and that of many souls. They will be blessed and remain forever, for they came to Me of their own accord and have found their way home to their father’s house ….

John 14, 21 'He that hath My commandments ….'

B.D. 7375 from June 23rd 1959, taken from Book No. 78

If you keep My commandments you will love Me and I will reveal Myself to you. And I will always reveal Myself to those who want to hear Me, I will never stay silent or leave you, because I love you and wish for nothing more dearly but to speak to you, to communicate with you and thereby reveal Myself to you as a loving Father Who has longed for His child ever since it deserted Me and fell away. My love for what has fallen has not diminished; hence I will do anything in order to call it back to Me. As soon as it hears My voice, as soon as it recognises it as My voice and thus requests to be addressed by Me it will have already started on the path of return …. it is already close to the Father’s heart, it only has to consciously try to establish contact with Me in order to definitely enter into union with Me and thereby regain the joys which it felt in the beginning.

Hence you, My beloved on earth, need only keep My commandments, that is, comply with My will, and you can at all times also be assured of hearing My Words, and then an abundance of grace will be at your disposal, for My speaking to you also signifies an influx of blessings which will help you to become perfect, to become blissfully happy, which will make it easy for you to travel the path of return to Me and reach the goal. But how few people believe that I would like to speak to them Myself, that they can hear Me if they wanted to, and that they only need to fulfil the conditions in order to hear My voice within themselves. And how few people recognise the voice of the Father Who speaks to them when My Word is conveyed to them through My messengers …. And yet, they all want to be My ‘children’ but the voice of the ‘Father’ cannot be recognised by them because they are still distant from Me, because they deem My commandments difficult to fulfil and thus they have not yet attained the ability to hear My gentle voice within their hearts ….

Nevertheless, I speak to people, and everyone can hear Me if only he believes in Me, fulfils My commandments of love for God and his neighbour and then quietly and devoutly listens within to what I want to say to him. And he will be able to hear Me and feel blissfully happy when the Father speaks to His child ….

Amen

God wants to be the subject of our thoughts ….

B.D. 7376 from June 27th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

No matter which path you want to take, it has to aim towards Me or you will go astray. If you are inclined towards the world you will hardly ever direct your heart and mind towards Me, and then you can be sure that the path you are taking is wrong. But if you turn away from the world your thoughts will most certainly drift into spiritual realms, you will mentally occupy yourselves with things which are beyond the earthly world, you will want to discover what is still hidden from you because you will yield to the light beings’ influence, who try to steer your thoughts into the spiritual kingdom and will always succeed when the human being looks for Me ….

I have to be your goal, you have to mentally occupy yourselves with Me, and then you will surely take the path which leads to Me. And thus you humans can only ever be cautioned to be wary of the world …. Not that you should escape from the world into which you were placed by providence to test your will. But you should not dedicate yourselves to it with heart and soul, you should learn to control it, you should do justice to the demands it makes on you for sustaining your earthly existence, nevertheless not grant it more rights than necessary …. You should master the world and not be its servant …. And thus destiny can make a variety of demands on you, yet you should not exclude Me from your thoughts, you have to let Me guide you and determine your every thought and action. And I will truly do everything to gain influence over you if you are of good will. But a person whose will belongs to the world will go astray, he will have a different goal, he will be completely taken in by the world and never get away from it.

Therefore I will cross everyone’s path time after time, and often painfully so, if he ignores my gentle admonitions and warnings and has hardly any or no connection to Me. In that case My Fatherly hand will often have to deal with him harshly, I will often have to make him painfully aware of the transience of earthly things, I will have to take from him what his heart desires, and I will often have to forcibly divert his eyes from the world without, however, forcing his will, which has to make its own choice after all. But he cannot become happy without Me, and this happiness concerns his eternal life, the state of his soul after his physical death. If he has not found Me on earth already he will scarcely achieve unification with Me, even though it is still possible in the kingdom of the beyond. But the goal has moved infinitely far away if he has concluded his earthly life without Me and then laboriously has to be guided in the beyond, where it is far more arduous than on earth, to find Me. But anyone who looks for Me on earth will find Me, since I will come to meet him Myself and not leave him again until he has united with Me. For I Am and remain the goal That has to be attained if you humans want to become blessed ….

Amen

Bond with God ….

B.D. 7377 from June 29th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

So regardless of the situation you find yourselves in, you will always be able to establish a bond with Me, for I will always penetrate your thoughts, time and again I will knock at the door of your heart, be it from within or from without, so that through discussions or reading you can take the path to Me if only you are of good will, that is, if it does not turn away from Me. And therefore no-one will be able to claim that he had not been touched by My hand, that he had not been guided to Me, that he lacked the ‘grace’ which I promised all human beings. No-one will be able to say that I did not speak to him, that he has never had the opportunity to get to know Me and that he therefore cannot be held to account. But whether people open their ears, whether they allow My voice to penetrate their heart, whether they are willing to turn to Me Myself directly, to call upon Me for help, for spiritual enlightenment, for strength and grace, is entirely up to them, but it is completely unrelated to their circumstances of life or their destiny, otherwise only few people would attain beatitude. You can always take the path to Me, for I allow Myself to be found by everyone who looks for Me …. I cross everyone’s path, often remaining unnoticed if the person is still too enslaved by My adversary, and yet I do not abandon him but instead approach him whenever the opportunity presents itself. Nevertheless, you have free will, consequently, I cannot do anything but guide your life such that you will be urged to turn to the One for help Who is more powerful than you. And once you have found faith in this powerful One you will not let go of Him again either, then He will constantly come closer to you the more you seek the bond with Him, and thus you will have been won for eternity. And once you have established a heartfelt bond with Me, you will also be able to hear My voice when you hear or read My Word and recognise it as the Father’s voice. Then the bond will be richly blessed, for once the Father can speak with His child, the child will fulfil the Father’s will and live as is needed in order to attain perfection, to attain maturity of soul …. In that case the human being will certainly reach his goal and perfect himself while he is still on earth, as a child he will find unification with the Father and at his departure be able to enter My kingdom of peace and happiness and bliss …. He will take possession again of the kingdom which is his true home, he will enter into the Father’s house, he will have come home to the Father from Whom he once originated ….

Amen

Spiritual comfort ….

B.D. 7378 from June 30th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

Every spiritual consolation is a refreshment for the soul which is open to it as soon as it feels the love of the consoler. For the soul is always in distress when it needs spiritual comfort. Then the human being performs a work of love for his neighbour which must sometimes be valued more highly than the administration of earthly gifts which only benefit the body. But the soul, which needs spiritual comfort, is in need of a work of love, and it can be helped far more …. always provided that true love gives it comfort. For then it will feel this love and be inspired to love itself, and love always has a redeeming effect. But giving spiritual comfort always requires the right attitude, thus the human being has to be in the right relationship with Me, with his father, then he will always also point his fellow human being to Me, he will tell him where he can expect comfort and help, he will encourage him to turn to Me himself and establish the same relationship with Me as he himself has, and his words will therefore also be alive and have an effect on the fellow human being to whom he seeks to give spiritual comfort. And it is precisely this bond which will comfort him …. the hope that there is one Who hears him and heeds his call, and that he can unite with Me in every adversity of body and soul. No one should let his fellow human being leave him without consolation. But he can only ever give true comfort by referring to Me, Who can and will change all suffering if the person trusts Me and asks Me for help. For then he will acknowledge Me as his God and father, and that alone is the purpose and aim of earthly existence, to enter into the relationship with Me again in which the being stood in the beginning, to lift the separation itself in free will, which it once aspired to, and to unite with Me again in order to be blissfully happy. This is why every reference to Me is a spiritual comfort which every human being needs as long as he is still distant from Me and, as it were, lonely and abandoned, exposed to all attacks by the adversary. He is in spiritual adversity where he needs consolation …. Take care of all of them, regardless of whether they are still on earth or already in the beyond, and give them this comfort by referring them to Me, that they should call upon Me and through calling upon My name will also find salvation for their souls. Remember them in prayer and in thought and don’t leave them in this adversity, and they will thank you eternally if you have helped them to find Me and to attain beatitude in Me, for which the bond with Me is indispensable. And you, too, will be comforted if you are in the same distress of soul, I will take special care of you and give you what you need in order to become blissfully happy ….

Amen

Spiritual wealth in the afterlife …. power ….

B.D. 7379 from July 5th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

You will lose all earthly strength when you enter the kingdom of the beyond. Only spiritual strength remains for you, and with this alone you will be able to create and work for your own and other souls’ happiness who are powerless and dependent on your support. And therefore you must acquire this spiritual strength on earth so that you will not arrive powerless and miserable on the other side when your earthly life ends and you leave your heavy body. You cannot be told often enough that in earthly life you should only think of acquiring spiritual goods, spiritual wealth, treasures which will follow you into eternity and which no one can take away from you. And acquiring these spiritual treasures only requires eager activity of love in complete unselfishness, they require constant remembrance of the one Who created you, Who is your God and father from eternity. For from Him emanates the strength which shall fill you and can only fill you in intimate union with Him, in eager activity of love …. For He is love Itself, and anyone who lives in love lives in Him and with Him, he is, as it were, united through love with Him, Who is love Itself …. And every work of love increases the treasure of spiritual possessions, every work of love bestows increased spiritual knowledge, and every work of love signifies the supply of strength from God and thus spiritual strength and wealth itself. But anyone who is devoid of all love will remain poor and powerless, and he will enter the kingdom of the beyond in his wretched state, no matter how rich he may be in goods on earth, no matter how seemingly righteous he may be …. where love is missing everything is just an illusion, and there is no righteousness without love, there are no virtues without love, everything is just an illusion before the world but cannot be concealed from God Who sees into the heart and knows the human being’s innermost thoughts. You must first make an effort to love, you must know that these are the most important commandments which God Himself gave on earth through the man Jesus, and you must know that only the fulfilment of these commandments leads to eternal beatitude, because love alone is the strength and without love you will lead an unhappy life one day in the spiritual kingdom. Then you will be dependent on the help of the beings of light or the intercession of people on earth, who alone can help you in spiritual adversity. For you cannot do anything yourselves in your powerless state, moreover, you are completely weak-willed, and therefore it is difficult to bring help to you, because you also have to accept this help voluntarily and often lack the will to do so. Therefore, make sure on earth that you acquire spiritual strength, make sure that you have at least a small spiritual wealth at your disposal which will then open the path into the kingdom of light and lead you upwards into bright heights ….

Amen

The being's re-transformation ….

B.D. 7380 from July 7th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

You should not forget that the Eternal Love brought you to life, that therefore your fundamental nature was love as I Am Myself and that you must revert to your fundamental nature again from which you had distanced yourselves, i.e., you had changed yourselves into the opposite. And this re-transformation into love must take place again, for you cannot remain separate from Me forever, hence My activity and reign will always aim to return you to the state you were in at the beginning. My nature is love, only love could have emanated from Me and as a spiritual being be likewise destined to be active in love. But then it also had to work in My will, and as long as this was so the beings were also intimately connected to Me, they were constantly permeated by the strength of My love and thus the beings were like Me. Yet they did not remain that way …. they turned their will against Me and used the strength of love flowing to them to act in opposition to My will. They gradually distanced themselves from Me, and every distance also signifies a weaker flow of strength, which became ever less because the beings in arrogance and wrong thinking rejected it themselves. For as a result of their resistance they also lost the light of realisation, they fell into the abyss where the darkness engulfing them became ever thicker until their spiritual substance hardened and they became solid substance, which only My will changed again by forming them into creations in which they could give up their resistance.

Hence they must endure a state wherein they remain in complete weakness so that they can be awakened to life again one day, and in accordance with My will therefore animate creations in which the slow process of maturing takes place. This is the stage of the ‘bound’ will where only My will applies and thus the being fulfils its task in the state of compulsion until it has reached the maturity when it can receive its free will again. For one day it has to be demonstrated again that you came forth from ‘love’. And one day love has to flare up in you and urge towards Me again, one day you must voluntarily request the strength of love from Me and through a life of love unite with Me once more, which ought to happen during your lifetime on earth. But then the process of reintegration will have been accomplished, then the being which, according to My will, was once created by My love will have voluntarily returned to the state of adopting its fundamental nature again and of its own free will become as perfect as it was once created by My will …. Then the work I planned by creating you will have been accomplished, to turn you into My children whom I was unable to create on account of free will, instead, every being has to achieve this itself but then it will also be infinitely happy in eternity ….

Amen

Commemoration of the death of Jesus on the cross ….

B.D. 7381 from July 14th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

Every walk to the cross of Christ means turning one’s thoughts to Him, the divine redeemer, in remembrance of His immense suffering and pain and His agonizing death …. A realization that the man Jesus, in Whom God embodied Himself, had taken upon Himself the guilt of sin of the whole of humanity in order to atone for it …. that the human being who remembers Him is also one of the sinners for whom Jesus died, that he must also recognize and confess his guilt of sin before the one Whom he thus remembers …. to Whose cross he has taken his way. Again and again man should become aware of the great guilt which was the cause of the work of redemption …. of God’s incarnation in Jesus and His death on the cross. And again and again the human being should remember that his guilt was redeemed but that he himself must also be willing to belong to the circle of the redeemed for whom Jesus’ act of salvation was accomplished. His guilt was immense, so great that the human being himself could never have paid it off, for the being had rebelled against God, Whom it recognized as God and father and yet rose up against Him …. The being itself was unable to redeem this guilt and would have remained eternally distant from God if a human being had not taken pity on His fallen brothers, Who was completely without sin but wanted to suffer and die for His fellow human beings’ sins out of love. The fallen brothers once lacked love, they renounced God’s love and that was the great sin …. But that human being was full of love and gave this love to His fallen brothers, that is, He offered Himself to God for their guilt and God accepted this sacrifice. The sacrifice was not made by a being of light but by a weak human being Who was subject to the same laws as His fellow human beings and Who only mustered the strength through love for the act of mercy which was intended to redeem the guilt and free the beings’ path to the father again. For ‘love’ was the strength itself, and the human being Jesus was so full of love that He wanted to accomplish the act of salvation and that God Himself was able to take abode in this human being, Who is eternal love Himself. And thus God Himself walked the path to the cross, He Himself carried humanity’s burden of sin, He Himself died the most bitter death on the cross and thus brought redemption to people who were enslaved by sin, who want to be redeemed and also take the path to the cross in the will to return to God, who then also recognize and acknowledge God Himself in Jesus Christ and become free of their guilt of sin. But no person can speak of forgiveness of his guilt who is not willing to become free from his guilt and who therefore voluntarily takes the path to the cross …. thus calls upon Jesus Christ for help and mercy, for forgiveness of his guilt of sin. He has to be aware of the fact that he is separated from God as long as his original guilt has not yet been forgiven, which consisted of his voluntarily turning away from God and therefore has to voluntarily return to Him by acknowledging the father in Jesus Christ as redeemer of humanity and appealing to Him for forgiveness of guilt, which will also become his for the sake of Jesus Christ. For the act of salvation has been accomplished by God’s immeasurable love, it has been accomplished for all people, but redemption must also be consciously requested …. The path to the cross must be travelled in full awareness of one’s guilt and the firm will to be redeemed ….

Amen

Redeemer work in the afterlife ….

B.D. 7382 from July 15th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

Great is the joy of the souls who found salvation through you and your cooperation, be it on earth or in the kingdom of the beyond, for they were all in great hardship as long as they were apart from God, thus still bound in their guilt of sin to the adversary who oppressed them in every way and tried to prevent such souls from finding salvation. This is where the help of fellow human beings has to start, who carry out their work of salvation through intercession for the souls of the departed or through proclamation of the gospel among fellow human beings and again and again wrest new souls from the adversary and lead them to God. And as soon as a soul has found its way back to God, its greatest need has been remedied and it is blissfully happy about its redemption and now seeks to do the same work in turn …. to help the souls far away from God to find the path to God and thus to Himself. All this is certainly work which is not very recognizable to fellow human beings as beneficial activity because it only ever concerns the soul’s well-being and is therefore outwardly regarded as of little use. And yet, it is one of the most important activities a person can do in earthly life because it saves the soul from eternal death, even though the body falls prey to physical death. But the soul’s existence is assured in beatitude, for the soul cannot pass away, but the state it is in is decisive, for this can be beatitude or death. But if the soul is in the state of bliss, then it is in the state of life, which now has no end. And if the soul has been in the state of death for a long time in the kingdom of the beyond it is incomparably blissful for it when it has escaped this state and has attained life through your help, which is why you cannot do enough redeeming work through intercession for such souls if you want to help them attain life from death. This is a work of greatest mercy, a work of greatest neighbourly love, for such souls are dependent on your help through intercession and they will eternally thank you for it and in turn help the other wretched beings in the beyond in the same way. But without this intercession they are too weak to reach the light of their own will, and therefore the first help must be given to them through your love and the will to bring them help in their adversity. Every loving thought towards them has an effect as strength and will not fail to have an effect, they feel every loving thought to be beneficial, and it encourages them to approach you and listen to you if you mentally impart the gospel to them, which they now also accept because it is offered to them in love. Love redeems and brings the souls salvation from their adversity, which you include in your loving prayer so that they can escape the adversary’s power ….

Amen

The right church of Christ ….

B.D. 7383 from July 17th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

The church which I Myself founded on earth and which also exists as the true ‘church of Christ’ is the union of the true believers …. those who have a living faith, that is, who are not just dead christians, i.e. members of an ecclesiastical organisation, whatever name it has. Every such organization can contain members of My true church, in every organization there will be people who believe so vividly that My spirit can also work in them, which, however, is only the right sign of belonging to My church. And thus people only need to ask themselves whether the spirit is working in them …. It is so easy to establish whether they have a gift of the spirit or whether the spirit was not allowed to touch them at all because their faith is not yet the right one …. They must be able to demonstrate a gift of the spirit, they must be able to recognize all correlations in a bright spirit and thus teach their fellow human beings again in all wisdom, they must see prophetically what I will impose on people in the future in a spiritual sense …. They must be able to heal the sick by laying on their hands, they must be able to recognize their fellow human beings’ spiritual state with clairvoyance and admonish and warn them accordingly, because they have the right spiritual gifts at their disposal through which they can help their fellow human beings in spiritual adversity …. And thus the working of My spirit must always be recognizable in the aspirants of My kingdom, in the members of My church, which I Myself founded on earth. But where are these sure signs still to be found? How many call themselves true christians, how many claim to belong to My church, and yet no ‘working of My spirit’ can be recognized, it is all just dead form without spirit and without life. And it is sad that people themselves do not recognize how empty they are when they could already possess rich possessions on earth and would be immeasurably rich if My spirit could work in them as evidence of belonging to My church …. For it is not enough that only the affiliation to a denomination is proven in order to be considered an aspirant of My kingdom …. the living faith must be present, the faith which is so profound that it will withstand all onslaughts like a rock, which will come again and again where My true church stands …. but which will never perish but defy all onslaughts, so that it will also be insurmountable for the powers of hell, because My spirit is stronger and My spirit works where My true church is. Know that the church is not the right one where My Spirit’s working is not recognizable …. and know that you cannot fight the followers of My right church as ‘false’ christians, for where My spirit’s working is, there is My spirit itself …. thus I Myself am with those who allow Me to work on them through living faith which comes forth from unselfish neighbourly love. And thus you will also know that everyone who lives in love belongs to My church …. that no denomination is decisive but only the spirit of love which fills the human being, which instils living faith into him and thus gives My spirit the right to express itself …. which is as solid as a rock and on which My church will therefore stand forever, as I Myself have promised ….

Amen

Rationale for addressing God ….

B.D. 7384 from August 2nd 1959, taken from Book No. 78

You are all called to beatitude …. but you have free will, and the fate which awaits you in the kingdom of the beyond when you have ended your earthly life is the same as this will. You have free will …. Bear in mind that you also bear the sign of divinity, for divinity is inconceivable without free will. But the divine can have deformed itself, it can have entered into a completely anti-divine being precisely through this free will. And this is your state while you were living on earth …. you had discarded the divine and had entered the state of your own free will which had to be called anti-divine because it completely contradicted My nature which was also your original nature, because everything divine was turned into the opposite and thus you became beings which cannot dwell close to Me but are far away from Me. But this distance is not bliss, it only brings the being unhappiness, weakness and a state of darkness, i.e. complete lack of realization, which is a state of torment for the being. And it shall change this state while it walks the earth embodied as a human being …. It shall change again into the state of perfection, of divinity, into the state where it is blissfully happy in light and strength and freedom …. For this purpose earthly life has been given to you humans, and you are always led through life in such a way that you can only work on your transformation, that you are given every opportunity to return to the old state, to divinise your being and to take on your original nature again, in which you were once immeasurably happy …. But you can by no means be forced into this change back, you have to accomplish it of your own free will, you have to voluntarily make use of all opportunities which help you to achieve perfection. Therefore your free will can only ever be influenced by presenting you with all pros and cons but the decision must nevertheless be left up to you, otherwise you would never find your way back to divinity, which is your aim during your earthly existence. But how else shall I influence you and touch your hearts than by addressing you in My fatherly love and presenting Myself to you as the father Who is concerned about you and your salvation? …. How else could I win you over for Myself than through My address, which shall prove My profound love for you and proclaim My concern for you again and again? …. I only have to and can speak to you and urgently admonish you to listen to My words and accept them, I can only ever make Myself known to you through My address, yet you must also be willing to listen to Me or My voice will be drowned out by the voice of the world, thus you will not be able to hear it. And again and again I try to penetrate and drown out the voice of the world, for I want you to attain beatitude …. I don’t want your earthly progress to be in vain, for it is the conclusion of an infinitely long period where you were far more wretched than you are now on earth …. Yet you would have to fear this wretchedness in bondage again if you were to fail during your earthly life …. For this reason I speak to you with great urgency and will persecute you again and again with My word if you don’t listen to Me and walk indifferently without being aware of the purpose which your existence nevertheless has to have. I don’t want you to get lost, I want your earthly life to bring you final redemption from the form, and you can achieve this yourselves if only your will is good, if you consciously subordinate your will to Mine, if you believe in Me and turn to Me of your own free will, as you once turned away from Me …. Then you will also hear My address, you will feel that and when you are addressed by Me, and you will pay attention to My word …. and then also inevitably reach the state which will lead you closer to Me again …. you will accomplish your return to Me of your own free will, and I will be able to prepare a life of bliss for you which will last forever ….

Amen

The most holy name of Jesus …. redemption ….

B.D. 7385 from August 4th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

In Jesus lies all the salvation of the world, in Him all souls find redemption, in Him rests all bliss, all happiness for eternity …. In His name, therefore, you humans find deliverance from the adversary; whoever calls upon Him will be set free, no matter how much he is bound beforehand …. The name of Jesus is the strength which solves everything, to which nothing is impossible and which overcomes everything that opposes it. And you should call upon this name of Jesus when you feel oppressed by the evil spirit which wants to pull you into the depth …. And you will feel that you will be released from it, for Jesus comes to everyone who calls upon Him because He has the right to his soul as soon as it desires Him. He bought this right with His blood, with His death on the cross, with His torments and sufferings which were immeasurable and therefore also redeemed immeasurable guilt, so that your souls became free from this guilt and thus find redemption with Jesus Christ if only you surrender to Him and want to accept redemption from Him. Then the shackles will be broken which the adversary had imposed on you when he dragged you down into the abyss. Then he will have to release you and you will be able to escape his control, for your guilt of sin has been paid, Jesus Christ Himself has paid the purchase price for your souls, Jesus Christ Himself has accomplished the work of salvation for all people of the past, present and future …. And there is therefore a sure help out of every affliction of a spiritual nature by calling upon the name of Jesus in spirit and truth …. Then every evil spirit which continually tries to oppress you must give way; it must give way before the power of the one to Whom the soul belongs through the call and Who will now also free it from its oppressor. For he no longer has any right to the soul which calls for Jesus Christ …. Bear in mind that you only need to hand yourselves over to the one Who redeemed you from sin and death …. Who took all the pain upon Himself that a human being was only capable of bearing in order to pay the guilt of sin for you, in order to relieve you of the suffering and pain which was the result of this great guilt of sin and would have remained eternally had the man Jesus not accomplished this act of salvation out of love. Love for the oppressed people drove Him to this work, and love also hears every call today which comes to Him from a tormented heart, which begs Him for help against the enemy. He will comply with him, He will grant help and displace the enemy, He will only ever grant peace where previously there was unrest and fear, He will truly redeem the human being from his tormentor who desires redemption. For as long as the human being dwells on earth the enemy will not give up his endeavour to win him back if he believes him lost for himself, or to hold him fast if he has not yet found redemption through Jesus Christ. He always pursues the human being but in vain where the name of Jesus is held out to him, Whom he flees and releases his victim because he has recognized his overcomer in Jesus and cannot oppose Him. You only need to hold on to Jesus Christ in every adversity of the body and soul …. and all hardship will pass away, and joy and peace will return to the heart which calls out in spirit and in truth for the one Who redeemed people from sin and death ….

Amen

Great work of redemption in the beyond …. Jesus Christ ….

B.D. 7386 from August 5th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

A great campaign of redemption is in progress, for wherever beings of light were allowed to incarnate on earth they also advocate the proclamation of the Gospel amongst their fellow human beings. And their efforts are supported by the beings from the world of light which influence people’s thoughts in every way, making them receptive for the divine Word as soon as it is offered to them. At the same time a great work of redemption is also taking place in the beyond, where beings of light dare to descend increasingly more often and aim to carry light into the darkness. Nevertheless, it always depends on whether the beings’ are willing to accept the light or turn away from it if time and again flashing sparks of light intend to show them the path to a source of light …. If they follow this path then the darkness could quickly recede and radiantly bright light would surround them …. but if they ignore it they will still be engulfed by thick darkness for eternities, and they will be banished again in the creations of earth. But whatever can still be done to save all these souls will truly be done on part of the world of light …. and wherever on earth there is still a chance to bring people light, the bearers of light will truly not pass it by, since they are embodied all over the world during the last days in order to work for the benefit of people and to show them the path to redemption ….

Nevertheless, it is not an easy beginning, since the voice of the world is much louder. Where God’s Word is proclaimed there will only ever be just a few people, whereas the world has countless more followers who rather choose darkness than light and therefore cannot find redemption during their earthly life either. But all souls will be fought for, since every effort is also being made in the kingdom of light above to direct people’s thoughts towards the kingdom that is not of this world. The world of light in the spiritual kingdom is constantly trying to radiate light onto the darkened human race, and thus time and again contacts are being established from the spiritual realm to earth, and people willingly fulfil the light beings’ suggestion as to what is necessary and beneficial for their fellow human beings’ salvation. And they will comply with the light beings’ influence …. which is recognisable by their diligent work in the vineyard of the Lord, by the proclamation of the Gospel, by the distribution of the divine Word, by spiritual conversations, explanations and constant references to Jesus Christ, the divine Redeemer.

His name will be mentioned time after time, and their enthusiasm will not lessen but increase, because everywhere some seed will also fall on good ground …. because Jesus Christ Himself will seize the people who direct their steps towards Him, who turn their eyes upon Him and thus wish to be redeemed by Him. He will never leave these, be it on earth or even in the beyond …. a heartfelt call upon Him will always be heard and the soul will be granted what it desires. A heartfelt call is evidence to Him that He is acknowledged by the soul, and then its fate in eternity will be assured …. This is why every work of redemption is blessed by Him, and Jesus Christ Himself is participating in every work of redemption, Who only requires the person’s free will in order to accomplish His act of Salvation on the soul, so that it will be released from sin and death and in this freedom be able to enter eternal beatitude ….

Amen

Intercession for souls in the deep ….

B.D. 7387 from August 7th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

You know nothing of the suffering of an unredeemed soul in the abyss, and even if it is described to you you cannot imagine it, for it is unbearable and no human being would be able to endure such torment in physical life without losing his earthly life. And yet, these souls remain in darkness where such torments are inflicted on them because they are still so stubborn and God-rejecting in their core that no other fate can blossom for them, for it is their own fault, it is a state which they could change at any time if only they wanted to, and “no injustice is done to the willing person” when he endures a fate …. if he has to endure a fate which his very resistance has brought about. Nevertheless, these souls are pitiful, for their obduracy does not allow a spark of light to flash, for they stubbornly turn away from him and often remain in their self-inflicted condition for an eternity before a slight diminution of their resistance is noticeable. But their fate cannot improve either, and therefore one can speak of ‘eternal’ torment and damnation if this refers to the fate of souls which dwell at the greatest distance from God and are not in the least bit willing to change their mind. But these souls also try to assert themselves and transfer their evil desires and dispositions to weak people, near whom they sometimes force themselves in order to express themselves through them. All people are beset by evil spirits, and the weaker a person is, the less he succeeds in pushing them away, and then he often becomes a victim of these evil spirits. But every man can protect himself from them by praying for such souls …. It may sound strange to you that you should still give your prayers to those who are open opponents of your God and father …. who rage as true devils in the kingdom of the beyond and also on earth in this last time, when hell has thrown everything out and the earth is overflowing with such evil spirits and pays tribute to them when people give in to them and their urging …. But against all evil you can protect yourselves through love …. You shall not love their evil urges, you shall not gloss over their nature or give in to their desire, but you shall know that they are worthy of mercy, that they have to suffer torments which you can relieve for them through a prayer or a loving thought, and you should not deny them this grace of a prayer or a loving thought and try to appease them, and you will truly also be spared from them, for they feel your love and desist from you because they, too, noticeably feel the grace of a prayer ….. because it is even possible that they will slacken their actions and change their mind for the better …. which indeed requires conscious intercession, because such souls are already too hardened to immediately undergo a change …. But it is not hopeless, and bearing in mind that you are constantly surrounded by such evil spirits in this last time before the end, you should consciously take care of them and again and again send loving thoughts out to those beings who are truly in a pitiable state that they need help …. but through their own fault. Therefore, success cannot always be expected but no prayer is without an effect of strength and therefore no prayer is in vain …. it helps to deliver souls from the abyss if it is intended for such beings which cannot be delivered from the abyss without help. Therefore don’t be afraid of their afflictions, to which you are all exposed, but only meet them with good thoughts and a loving will to help, and they will feel this and leave you out for the time being in order to then no longer leave you when they feel that redeeming strength emanates from you. You have so many possibilities to be active in a redeeming way, and if you don’t do it consciously then already a compassionate thought is enough for those souls from the abyss who cannot muster the strength and the will to release themselves from the abyss without help. First their resistance must be broken, and this requires love …. You humans cannot be expected to love such beings from the abyss because you are incapable of such love. But you should be filled with deep compassion when you think of the immeasurable torments these beings are exposed to. And you should try to alleviate them, and you can do so through compassionate thoughts and the will to help them. The nature of their torment cannot be described to you but the fact that they have to endure unspeakable torment is certain, and this should spur you on to loving intercession in the will to bring them help. And the sphere around you will be cleansed, for they will all desist from you who are recognizable to them as friends through your light and the strength which emanates from you …. In this way you can accomplish much redemptive work which will one day earn you great thanks in eternity ….

Amen

Banishing the demons …. warding them off ….

B.D. 7388 from August 9th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

In the name of the crucified saviour Jesus Christ you will be able to expel every evil spirit from your vicinity, for the name of Jesus contains the power which overcomes it so that it desists from you and flees. In the coming time you will very often have to resort to this help because the work of satan’s followers will get worse and worse in view of the end which these spirits will certainly feel and they therefore know that they don’t have much time left. They are facing a new banishment if they do not convert first, and although they are not fully aware of this, they nevertheless know that they will be deprived of their freedom, which they still have to a certain extent because they are supported by the lord of darkness whom they serve. They know that they will lose this freedom and therefore rage particularly strongly beforehand in order to bring you humans down who want to belong to Me. But they are completely powerless as soon as the name of Jesus Christ is held up to them, Whom they fear and flee from. These evil spirits work on them as emissaries of satan …. and you feel their activity as unrest, discord, hardship and suffering of all kinds and through weaknesses of soul and bondage, for they prevent you, wherever they can, from good actions or also from spiritual bonds with the world of light and its inhabitants. They keep you chained to the world by repeatedly whispering worldly thoughts to you and try to tie you down with such thoughts in order to turn you away from spiritual striving, spiritual thoughts and good works …. You will feel oppressed without knowing a direct reason, and then you can always believe that it is bad spirits who try to draw you into the dark spheres, albeit mostly without success, as soon as they try their hand at those who want to belong to Me and whose hearts already belong to Me through their will. The will which is directed towards Me protects people from all attacks of the evil one, so that they will not fall prey to it, they will only have to suffer emotionally under its afflictions, for all spiritual peace is robbed from it by those spirits on behalf of their lord, who seeks to prevent all redemption through Jesus Christ …. Therefore you only need to speak the name of Jesus with devotion and you will drive the enemy away from you who does not dwell where Jesus Christ is, but Who will certainly respond to every call and therefore you will always have safe protection by calling upon His holy name. The death on the cross was not in vain, it snatched countless souls out of the enemy’s hands and will still snatch countless souls from him, for he was suffered for time and eternity, for the present, past and future, and again and again satan will have to experience the power of the name of Jesus, for he will lose appendage, although he believes to gain supremacy in the battle for people’s souls …. And even those he wins through their attitude will be taken away from him again and bound anew in matter, and the adversary will lose their souls again for an infinitely long time …. Believe that you have power over him, that he does not need to win the victory …. believe that you possess a weapon with which you can surely drive him away …. if only you call upon Me in Jesus Christ to protect you against him. And you will experience My protection, you will be released from his power, for you are stronger than him through My name because you call upon Me Myself and I truly will not leave you without help. For He Who died on the cross for you is truly greater and stronger than your soul’s enemy, and He will also use His power if you call upon Him for help ….

Amen

False Christs and prophets …. Apparitions of Mary ….

B.D. 7389 from August 12th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

During the short time which is still left to you until the end much is yet to happen which time and again will draw your attention to the fact that My proclamations are justified for the Scripture, that foretells what you will be able to observe if only you take notice, will fulfil itself. And I told you ‘Pay attention to the signs which precede the near end ….’, ‘For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets ….’ The name of Jesus Christ will be misused by associating Him with apparitions produced by My adversary in order to deceive those people who are only too quickly willing to assume a divine origin of the manifestations. And an indication of these kinds of apparitions rests in the fact that they all originate from a place where particular piety is being displayed, where Jesus Christ to some extent merely contributes towards the glorification of the mother of God, thus the latter is the motive for an appearance which intends to take credit for being divine, although Jesus Christ is mentioned and indeed acknowledged by the mother of God she nevertheless seeks more honour and acknowledgement for herself than for the Son of God.

This is a first rate game by Satan which is so well camouflaged that it is only rarely recognised as a deceptive image by the adversary, and which therefore is also more likely to be acknowledged than the fact that Jesus speaks to people Himself, and as a result He is not recognised in His Word and thus rejected. The Word of God, which comes directly from above, is not recognised by people as the Father’s voice; on the other hand they instantly accept an evil spirit manifesting himself and don’t recognise him as a false prophet, despite the fact that his word does not correspond to the pure Word of God, since he promises people long life and prosperity. And such words are much rather believed than My pure Word from above, which predicts an end to the period of Salvation and constantly admonishes them to prepare themselves for the last days. For the opposing spirit will not announce these last days, he will confuse people by promising that they still will have happy times ahead if only they worship the mother of God, who is used by My adversary in order to conceal deceitful prophesies behind her back, which sound more agreeable to people than the pure truth from above. The messengers of the pure truth, however, are made out to be false Christs and false prophets, they are even denied the truth of their predictions, for the pure truth is only desired by a few and only recognised by them as such.

But attention has already been drawn to this in the Scriptures and thus cautioned against false Christs and false prophets …. But where, in that case, are people looking for the right prophets if they negate everything that provides them with an insight about the events of the last days? …. They gladly hear when it is claimed that an end is questionable, when everything is negated what is announced by God’s messengers in advance in order to warn and admonish people in the last days. They are the false prophets who don’t want to accept the pure truth and who time and again appease people by disputing a near end …. Even the people who regard God’s love as incompatible with the fact that he strikes earth with unusual kinds of judgments and who therefore also try to influence their fellow human beings’ minds belong to these wrong prophets, even if they are of good will and also strive towards good. But they lack realisation …. the knowledge, which stage of spiritual development humanity has arrived at and why God will intervene when the deadline granted to humanity for achieving full maturity has expired. God’s love is always at work, even if you humans cannot understand that, and God’s love admonishes and warns people in good time and refers them to these unusual events, so that they will have time to adjust their lives appropriately, so that they will be able to justify themselves at any time if these events suddenly overwhelm people.

And these admonitions and warnings will always come from above, that is, God will address those people through the spirit who are voluntarily receptive to the voice of the spirit. And thus purest truth is conveyed to earth, and these messengers can never be regarded as false prophets, for they only pass the pure truth from God on to people. The fact that people don’t always like these predictions nevertheless does not entitle them to discard everything as lies and errors and attack the truth and with it the proclaimers of the truth as false prophets, humanity cannot be informed in any other way than through the spirit of what is about to happen very soon. God Himself cannot instruct people in any other way about the last days and the end than through His Word. Hence these proclaimers will not find credence, while belief is granted to people who proclaim a long life in prosperity to their fellow human beings and talk about a spiritual turning point in terms of humanity’s return to faith and to God …. They pretend to be saviours themselves, who dismiss every end time prophesy as being anti-divine, who thus expect earthly progress together with a spiritual ascent for humanity. They harm people insofar as that they deprive them of their accountability by claiming that the work of improving the soul is unimportant and only ever place earthly interests into the forefront, until one day the end will come upon humanity and they will be called to account in total immaturity …. with the result that they will not have reached the slightest degree necessary in order to enter the kingdom of light, and the only fate open to them will be a renewed banishment into solid matter …. which is precisely what God is trying to prevent with His predictions through seers and prophets. You humans should not spend these last days irresponsibly, you should know that not much more time is granted to you and that you can still make good use of this short time if you believe and are of good will …. if you listen to the prophets which time and again are sent by God’s love to cross your path in order to save you from ruin, from the fate of a new banishment in the creations of earth ….

Amen

Concluding a period of Salvation ….

B.D. 7390 from August 15th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

You can believe without doubt that one period of Salvation is coming to an end, for as soon as you are spiritually inclined you will also be able to observe people’s development, and then you will not find it difficult to believe that a change has to occur if I don’t want to let humanity fall prey to Satan, who is visibly at work. For the purely worldly-minded person this is indeed no explanation, because he will not accept a low spiritual level since he is unable to see it. Yet the purpose of earthly existence is not a purely-worldly one, but the meaning and purpose of earthly existence rests in the human being’s spiritual development, and once this clearly becomes a secondary issue then earthly life has become futile and need no longer be continued by people who totally deny their purpose of existence. But it does not just concern the human being’s higher development …. The whole of Creation shelters spiritual substances within itself which likewise go and should go through this process of development, consequently a certain order has to be observed in creation which, however, is being revoked by people and therefore the creations on earth no longer fulfil the purpose which was assigned to them. An unspiritual human race does not live in accordance with My will, and thus it will not use all available works of creation according to My will but assign them for other purposes which therefore endanger the inherent spiritual beings’ development or make it impossible …. And such an unspiritual human race is presently populating the earth and endangering its continued existence because it no longer lives on earth in keeping with My will but revokes the divine order and lets its own will break through which opposes My plan of Salvation. Nevertheless, people’s will is free ….

And thus their behaviour and activity will not be opposed, instead people themselves will lend a hand to the work of the final destruction, they themselves will hasten the end and don’t realise that they nevertheless indirectly proceed in line with My plan of Salvation, since due to the work of destruction the process of development of the spiritual substances which are still constrained in the creations will continue, because a new period of Salvation will start and take its course in lawful order again, as it is destined by My love and wisdom. The fact that the majority of people do not believe it only demonstrates the low spiritual level, because every spiritually awakened person can see for himself that the present situation on earth cannot go on if one wants to speak of spiritual development. But the few of My Own will know that not much time is left until the end because they can see the signs very distinctly which I indicated through Word and Scripture …. The human being must see with spiritual eyes, then humanity’s state will be apparent to him. If, however, he only pays attention to the world he will just see economic development and progress, and then he will find it difficult to believe that everything will come to an end, that no-one will be able to enjoy the results of his own effort, his possession of worldly goods, he will only ever see the world and its development and spiritual thoughts will move ever further from his mind the more he observes the world and its progress …. But he will be unable to enjoy what the world has to offer for much longer; very soon he will be able to watch the disintegration, first through My will, through the raging of the elements of nature …. and later through human projects …. after all, I built My eternal plan of Salvation on the basis of people’s wrong will, which will give all spirits in the entire universe new possibilities for higher development, because I want to help them achieve spiritual progress.

And thus it will come to pass as it is proclaimed …. and regardless with how much incredulity you humans look at My predictions …. you can expect with certainty that you are approaching tremendous upheavals and that one period of Salvation will come to an end and a new one will begin soon …. For the time has expired that was granted to the spirits by My love, wisdom and might …. And it will come to pass as it has been proclaimed again and again to you humans ….

Amen

Law of the eternal order …. embodied light beings ….

B.D. 7391 from August 18th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

A law has been given to you that you should move in divine order during your earthly life …. If you comply with this law then eternal beatitude is also guaranteed to you, then you will end your earthly life as divinely shaped beings, for to comply with the divine order means nothing else than to shape the being into love, which is the sign of divinity, thus creating beings which are equal to God. This was God’s aim in the creation of His beings, which certainly emerged from Him in highest perfection but nevertheless first had to acquire the highest degree of perfection …. which had to shape themselves into gods if they were to reach the aim which God had set for everything created by Him. For one thing was necessary for the beings to be able to use their free will which could just as well strive for the opposite, which could tempt them to fall into the deepest depths, which is what happened to a large part of the created original spirits. They had to have complete freedom as to where they directed their will …. The fact that they directed it wrongly does not make it impossible to reach the last aim, the divinisation of the being. But then the highest degree of perfection has been reached by the being itself. The highest angelic beings have not yet reached this degree of perfection, although they are still as they came forth from the hand of their creator. But they still stand in dependence on God’s will, which they certainly freely fulfil and thereby prove their perfection …. Nevertheless, the path through the abyss is necessary, and therefore such angelic beings also once take the path as a human being across earth for the purpose of a mission which, however, is extremely difficult and sorrowful (18.8.1959) and which will also rarely just proceed to the end like other people’s earthly path but always has special characteristics, such as unusual suffering or strokes of fate which hardly seem bearable for others. However, such a walk across the earth is of utmost importance for the development of the being, for the highest degree of perfection can be reached through it, which precisely requires a walk across this earth. The souls of light admittedly no longer have a long way to go until their perfection, but nevertheless they have to walk the path unconsciously of their nature, and since they feel like every other human being they often carry an inconceivably heavy burden of their lot, which they nevertheless take upon themselves fully consciously when the earthly path is placed before their eyes before embodiment. For they know about the aim of attaining childship to God, they know about the highest degree of perfection which they must strive for and attain of their own free will because it cannot be given to them. The fact that a being fails during its earthly life is prevented by the beings of light who constantly watch over and ward off the evil forces which want to try their hand at that person. Moreover, their desire for God is particularly strong, which admittedly also results in particularly strong temptations, for that would be their greatest triumph, to bring a pure angelic spirit to fall during earthly life …. But the strength of love is likewise particularly strong in such a person, and this will be able to resist every such temptation without becoming a victim of the dark world. For he, too, will be able to draw strength from Jesus Christ and always resist, because the bond between a spirit of light and Jesus Christ does not cease even when the former, embodied as a human being, has put on the earthly garment. The soul is strong and maintains the bond with Him, Who likewise walked across the earth in order to reach the final aim of deification …. And this bond protects him from the depth, which would certainly be possible without Jesus Christ and His strength, because the temptations are also exceedingly strong which the prince of the underworld prepares for such an embodied soul. But all his efforts are in vain, for Jesus Christ will not allow a brother from the kingdom of light to fall into his hands. And for the most part the earthly course will end with the highest aim, the union with God, and only in rare cases can a delay occur but still not reduce the abundance of light which such a soul brings with it to earth at the beginning. But then the soul is free at any time to repeat its earthly progress once more, yet this will only ever happen for the purpose of a mission, and an abundance of suffering will always be its fate on earth ….

Amen

Genuine prophecy ….

B.D. 7392 from August 19th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

The gift of divination, of genuine prophesy, is the ‘working of God’s spirit’ in the human being. Anyone who knows this, will also ascribe the right value to such predictions which requires the latter to be spread, because it is God’s will that people should know about them or He would not have revealed them through the spirit to a person. For the prophesies are not conveyed to people in order to frighten them or to disclose the future, instead it is their purpose that people should arrange their life with greater responsibly towards their souls in accordance with the predictions. For every person should know that he can still change and that he can only benefit by changing his character, i.e., by directing it according to God’s will, in order to then calmly wait and see what God will send upon humanity. The gift of divination is therefore a commitment …. Consequently a person need not fear that he will proclaim something of his own making, because …. once the working of the spirit becomes evident …. the person will always be under this influence as long as it relates to spiritual information, which also includes future events which are based on spiritual reasons and which would never be mentioned by a purely worldly-minded person who does not believe in it. Anyone who proclaims future events in connection with spiritual effect speaks on God’s instruction, for every worldly-minded person would refuse to voice such divinations and spread them amongst his fellow human beings …. It is in the nature of things that only a spiritually-awakened person announces events by speaking on God’s instruction, and he is also responsible for the distribution, as far as this is possible for him. For he will always be guided correctly, if only he pays attention to every gentle suggestion and allows himself to be lead by the inner voice, which always has to be considered as an expression of the spirit.

Not many people receive the gift of divination, but the few to whom God’s spirit reveals future events shall carry out their responsibility and ensure the distribution of what is sent to them. And they need not fear to act contrary to God’s will, for the attention of humanity shall be drawn to the coming events and they shall prepare themselves accordingly. And the spirit of God will create the opportunities, he will bring people together, he will impel the prophet from within when he should talk but also gently warn him when it is inappropriate to speak about it …. The person need only take notice of the gentle inner voice, for once the spirit of God is at work it will not stop working and guide the person in accordance with God’s will. Once again, it has to be said that you are approaching great events and that it is good if the human race knows of them in advance already, even if it looks at the predictions with incredulity. But the fact that it was already announced in advance will become evident to them one day, and then the events will have a greater effect on people’s souls and they will believe the announcement of a near end, which is of greatest significance, for then they will only have a short time left which they can use well for the salvation of their soul if only they are of good will. And God will not cease to admonish and to warn, and therefore He will keep drawing people’s attention to the forthcoming events through the voice of the spirit, He will not stop until the day comes which will trigger immense terror because only a few will be able to save themselves, even though the human being would only need to have the right attitude towards Him in order to be guided through all adversities and dangers, or …. if he has to relinquish his life …. to grant him a more pleasant life in eternity …. The coming events cannot be pointed out often enough and you, being filled by the spirit, shall only ever declare what the spirit proclaims to you …. and you will comply with God’s will, Who speaks to you Himself through His spirit and who wants to speak to all people ….

Amen

Dark sites …. guidance by the spirit ….

B.D. 7393 from August 20th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

Whose spirit is awakened should not trouble himself with doubts, for he is guided by the spirit within himself, and even if it may sometimes seem as if he is not walking the right path …. Once the spirit can be active through the human being’s will to serve God and belong to Him, the spirit will no longer withdraw and let the human being walk his path alone. And then it can truly be assumed that the paths the human being takes are right. The fact that the earthly pilgrim sometimes has to pass through dark places does not prove that this path is wrong, for the human being has to pass through darkness as long as his soul is not yet exclusively an inhabitant of the kingdom of light, as long as it still lives on this earth. And every test of faith, every test of the will is always a traversal of dark paths which the human being can, however, walk without fear because he is guided by the spirit which, after all, is part of the heavenly father and which therefore never lets the human being go astray. The earth offers light and shadow, it has valleys and heights, open roads and closed paths which receive little light. The human being has to pass through it during his earthly life, he must not tire of his wanderings, he has to walk his pilgrimage path unwaveringly until he has reached the end, and this path will often be difficult for him …. but never impassable for the one who makes use of God’s strength, who has established the bond with Him, whose spirit is united with the father-spirit, so that God Himself can work through the spirit in the human being …. And how then should the working of God be other than good? …. No matter how the human being is guided it will always be right, it will always lead to the aim and give no cause for doubt of any kind. As long as a person lives a purely worldly life there is certainly a danger that the paths he takes will not be the right ones. However, a person who is already of awakened spirit, who once established the intimate bond with God in such a way that God Himself was able to work through him, that He was able to speak to him and that His sanctified word can touch the human being’s ear again and again and is listened to, need never have these doubts. He, too, has to walk dark paths because it is necessary for his soul’s maturity, but he is never left in darkness but again and again led out by His spirit onto paths full of light where the aim is clearly and distinctly before the human being’s eyes again and where he also feels the strength within himself to reach this aim …. But the human being can lean on His spirit at any time and he will have the right support, he will not need to fear that the staff which supports him will break …. The spirit from God will no longer let go of the human being whom he once won, through whom God Himself was able to express Himself for the salvation of human souls. And every darkness will come to an end one day if only the human being keeps moving and does not stay in the place of darkness because he shuns the light. But light will certainly shine for anyone who desires it, and anyone who is already in the light should no longer be frightened by darkness, for it is merely a passage to ever more radiant light which will never go out because it completely fills and permeates the human soul and all darkness has come to an end ….

Amen

Becoming free from the lord of the world …. matter ….

B.D. 7394 from August 21st 1959, taken from Book No. 78

All that is bound shall one day become free …. First of all, the spiritual being bound in the creations, in the ‘form’, shall once finish this path through the works of creation in order to then be able to cover the path as a human being across earth in a certain degree of freedom, where he is in possession of free will and can also mostly act according to his will. And during this time he shall acquire complete freedom from the form, for as a human being he is still in a bound state from which he shall find his way into a state of light and strength and freedom and therefore unlimited bliss. The state before the embodiment as a human being is an extremely agonizing one, but the human being has no recollection of it and therefore no longer feels his earthly life so bound, since he enjoys a certain freedom, i.e. no longer lives under the law of compulsion. And yet his life as a human being is extremely unfree if he knew about his former state of perfection in which he truly lived freely. But he shall reach this state again, for it is incomparably blissful, it is a state which cannot be any different for a divine being, for perfection includes unconditional freedom and likewise also strength and light, which are likewise only to be possessed by the human being as such to a very limited extent. But freedom, light and strength belong to beatitude, to the claim to be an image of God which can create and work in all perfection. And earthly life was given to you humans for this purpose, so that you can come out of the bondage which keeps your ego imprisoned until you have reached a degree of perfection which makes you free. And you are bound by God’s adversary who has deprived himself of all perfection and thus also wants to keep you all in the same condition as his followers. Therefore he will make it difficult for you to become free from him …. He will try to transfer to you everything that keeps you bound to matter, which is his kingdom and stands in opposition to the kingdom of freedom …. For matter is that which is firmly bound and still lacks all freedom. As long as God’s adversary has an influence on you through matter …. as long as he can nourish and increase the desire for matter in you, so long are you yourselves in the hardest bondage, so long are you enslaved to him who is an enemy of all freedom, all strength and all perfection …. He keeps his followers in this hard bondage, and people voluntarily remain in bondage with him as long as they don’t detach themselves from matter, which is their task on earth, that they free themselves from their bondage, that they strive for freedom, light and strength and earnestly request these from God, Who alone can give them back the freedom they once voluntarily put at risk themselves. Only in freedom is there bliss, and as long as God’s adversary still holds you in bondage you are blissless …. But he keeps you bound as long as you desire what belongs to him, as long as you desire the possessions of this world, as long as matter can still entice you and is your master, as long as you have not yet overcome matter and do not desire spiritual goods instead …. And how often is your earthly life an idle one, how much are you humans still connected with everything that belongs to the material world and how difficult are you able to detach yourselves from it …. And yet it is your aim in life, it is the purpose of earthly life, it is the meaning of your earthly course, that you learn to overcome what still ties you down. And in this earthly life you possess freedom of will, so that you can certainly reach your aim, that you are able to overcome the world, for what you seriously want you also receive the strength to do, and thus you can also regain your freedom if you wholeheartedly pursue the aim of living on earth in accordance with its purpose and to detach yourselves from that…, who is the lord of the material world, for matter was and still is your prison from which it should not be too difficult for you to become free, because you will only find your bliss in freedom and because you will only be free when you detach yourselves from all matter which belongs to the one who imprisoned you eternities ago ….

Amen

About the inner word …. pure gospel ….

B.D. 7395 from August 22nd 1959, taken from Book No. 78

My word is given to you humans from above …. You hear My voice, although it does not yet sound in your hearts, yet you feel addressed by Me and also sense that it is My voice, because you, as children, recognize the father’s voice, because you have become His own through your will. My word sounds in you like a clearly expressed thought …. it sounds in you in such a way that you can understand its meaning, that the speech touches you in confidence …. I can speak to you, pure spiritual things can be conveyed to earth and yet be understood by you, the spirit within you conveys it from the heart to the intellect, and the latter can now deal with it, which it can also do with every address a person addresses to it …. You have My word …. but this word must be understandable to you or it would be of no value to your soul …. The word must provide you with the most enlightening knowledge, it must be able to be recognized as truth, nothing must remain incomprehensible about which My word seeks to enlighten you …. My word shall and will bring light into your hearts, which means that clarity will prevail where previously there was confusion, that problems which were not understood will be solved, that correlations will be explained, that the human being will now be able to form a picture of concepts which were previously incomprehensible to him …. For I want to convey the truth to people through My word, I want to acquaint them with things which people’s intellect alone cannot master, which require My explanation in order to be understood and which I Myself have also reserved to explain to you, because I alone am omniscient and can truly shed light on everything which is still a mystery to people. And I speak to you humans in order to convey the truth about everything to you, and I will do so again and again because I want the human being to live in truth, because I want his thinking to be bright and clear and true …. But not every person reacts in the same way to the truth offered to him by Me. And therefore My way of speaking is also different but will never deviate from each other in its meaning but will be and remain unchanged truth. Yet the human being must also be able to draw advantages from it for his soul, otherwise My address would be worthless. And he will derive an advantage from it if he feels inspired by My word to work on himself, if My word impels him towards Me, if he seeks Me and endeavours to live in accordance with My pleasure …. For this purpose I address the human being so that he finds his way to Me and strives to fulfil My will …. And every word which achieves this purpose is My address, albeit addressed to people in different ways, because not everyone is able to receive My word in utmost perfection. Nevertheless, My word can be spoken when a person already feels impelled from within to lively spiritual work in striving towards Me …. Then I Myself have thus also addressed him and he has listened to My address and complied with it. And thus I very often speak to people on earth, and their will alone now determines the way they hear Me, for the will that I might address them is also already the fulfilment of their desire …. I speak to My children at all times, thus this desire to hear Me will never not be granted on My part but they will always receive answers to questions or spiritual instructions which shall lead them closer to the father’s heart …. Yet the receiving of My word is often also connected with a great task: that it should be passed on as a ‘word from above’, because people have already greatly contaminated My gospel and therefore it requires purification and because I know who is suitable to receive My word and thus also to spread it. This word has the same purpose to lead people to Me, to bring them light and clarity and to purge existing error …. it has the purpose to guide people to the light as pure truth and to show them the path of ascent, so that one day they will reach beatitude when their earthly life is over. And the word which is to be spread must also be able to withstand all human criticism, although it will also be given in utmost simplicity so that it can be understood by all who are to read or hear it. And this word will also stand out in its kind, it will not be able to give rise to opposing objections to anyone who only listens to it with an honest heart and who is truthful himself. But it will also have to be guarded against contamination which is achieved through alleged ‘wanting to improve’ and which is always a danger as long as the firm will to serve Me does not make the recipient or distributor happy, which is always a sure protection against any dilution of the pure teaching material which I want to supply to people again because they lack it. But as long as this firm will is present no dilution needs to be feared, for then My blessing rests on every work and My servant will also carry it out under My protection and guidance ….

Redeemer work on souls beyond ….

B.D. 7396 from August 24th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

Every contact with the spiritual world is beneficial if it is established with the will to do good, if the will to help is the impetus and if it happens under the invocation of Jesus’ name that He may bless it. You must consider that there are no longer any earthly incentives for the inhabitants of the world of the beyond, that they are, as it were, deadened by the length of time they have already understood that they are no longer surrounded by earthly matter and that they therefore accept every spiritual stimulation like food they have needed for a long time. And so this is the effect of good bonds which you humans initiate from earth to the spiritual kingdom. If your conversations, your thoughts and your suggestions are of a spiritual nature then it is like an administration of food for these souls, for they are so empty and needy that they hunger and thirst and every spiritual presentation of the gospel’s teachings means food for them for which they are extremely grateful. You cannot imagine such depleted souls in their poverty …. You don’t know what kind of benefit you do for them by offering them food and drink, but this is only to be understood as a spiritual gift which you want to give to them in love in order to help them. Your intention to help first blesses this spiritual knowledge and turns it into nourishment for the souls, for your will then concerns the transmission of the gospel to those souls which have entered the kingdom of the beyond poor in spiritual knowledge and have to live in want there if they are not given the right nourishment. And you possess this nourishment and can therefore help the souls if only your will intends it. And if you now intimately unite with Jesus Christ so that He will give His blessing to your plan, then it will certainly be blessed and the souls will be able to fill themselves with the food you give them in His name. You who receive the pure word of God should work with this word …. you shall convey it to the people with whom you are brought together, but you shall also remember the souls who dwell in the kingdom of the beyond, by whom you are surrounded if only you call them in thought, and who will always accept the word if it is lovingly offered to them …. Consciously and unconsciously you can pass nourishment to these souls, for as soon as you only mentally occupy yourselves with spiritual knowledge, as soon as your thoughts dwell in spiritual territory, you are surrounded by souls which fetch spiritual nourishment from you, because the soul’s will, in turn, determines the amount of spiritual knowledge it receives …. But they will always stay close to you and wait until you establish this spiritual bond, which will be a great blessing for them if only you remember them, if you want to help them yourselves …. if it is your will to carry out redemptive work wherever possible …. And therefore don’t miss any opportunity to do so, gather together in Jesus’ name and know that your willingness to help will be blessed at every hour, because great need exists in the kingdom of the beyond and because every soul is eternally grateful to you, which you lead out of darkness into the light of day, which finds Jesus Christ through you and is then also saved for all eternity ….

Notice on great time of need ….

B.D. 7397 from August 25th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

And even if you long for the pleasures of this world …. they are not permanent, and within a short time you will realize this yourselves when the transience is so clearly brought home to you that you will be shocked by the course of world events and realize how futile all your efforts and worries were in the past time. The world will suffer a severe blow, i.e. everything that belongs to the world, the people who pay homage to the world, will have to realize that everything will be taken away from them, that they will lose what they have created for themselves, and nothing will remain for them …. And people who are only worldly minded will be hit hard, whereas those will be little affected whose striving was spiritual and who therefore also realize the necessity of what affects the earth and thus the people on it …. And this will be the time when the gospel shall now be proclaimed to all those who have been hard hit and know no way out in their adversity. Through you they shall be pointed to the one to Whom they must turn if they are to be helped. You yourselves cannot help them other than by preaching the divine word, because everyone has to take the path to Me himself from Whom he expects help. Admittedly, the people of the world do not accept Me, I have become a stranger to them; but through you they can be pointed to Me again and, depending on their will, they can either take the path to Me or turn their eyes ever more desperately towards the world …. But it will only be to their souls’ detriment, even if they acquire earthly goods again in an unjust way …. They will not bring them a blessing, and they are only to be pitied if they don’t believe your words and keep striving for the world and its goods instead of establishing the bond with Me, which is and remains the purpose and aim of the great earthly hardship before. Only when people realize the transience of the world so very clearly will they go into themselves and be able to change their thinking and their way of life …. And then it is also possible that they strive for spiritual goods, that they realize that spiritual good alone is desirable and that this also guarantees them earthly help, that they will always find help with Me if they completely hand themselves over to Me and learn to despise the world’s goods …. if they defeat the world …. Again and again it is foretold to you that you do useless work if you only strive to increase your earthly wealth; again and again you are pointed out to the decay and transience of what you strive for and what you use all your strength to achieve …. Everything will be taken away from you, keep thinking about it, even if you don’t want to believe it …. But prepare yourselves for this by also acquiring spiritual goods which will then protect you from a state of despair and most bitter hardship. For anyone who possesses spiritual possessions also knows that he will be sustained by My love, no matter how confusing and threatening the world may seem to be …. Where My strength is called upon nothing can happen, there all afflictions will be resisted …. and whether the world still threatens the human being so much, whether it disintegrates into rubble and rock …. I can give earthly goods back to you at any time, but you must request or acquire spiritual goods through love, but then you will also possess the strength to fight against the world, and then you will receive what you need if only you first seek My kingdom and its righteousness ….

Amen

Jesus Christ is the gate into the kingdom of light ….

B.D. 7398 from August 26th 1959, taken from Book No. 78

Every person who has found Jesus Christ, who has a living relationship with him, who is a truly active Christian and not a Christian who merely observes formalities, will enter through the gate of light. This is why the thought of being united with Jesus Christ makes every person happy, because then he will be assured of the kingdom of light, he will not need to fear death and the time awaiting him in the afterlife. But a heartfelt bond is meant by this, a bond which makes the person realise that he belongs to those who Jesus Christ died for on the cross. And this bond can always be found where a person lives a life of love and thereby already takes the path of following Jesus …. This person will be spiritually brightly enlightened through love, the significance of the act of Salvation will be known to him, he will recognise Jesus’ mission on earth correctly and will therefore also want to partake of the act of mercy which Jesus, the human being, accomplished on earth as the shell of the eternal divine Spirit …. . For anyone who knows about this immense work of redemption and its reasons cannot do anything but commit himself wholeheartedly to Jesus Christ and closely adhere to him for time and eternity …. However, it requires enlightenment through the spirit, it requires a life of love which makes this enlightenment possible in the first place, and it requires the will to live on earth according to its purpose and goal …. it requires the resolve for good, which always initiates the connection with God in Jesus Christ …. Yet a person can consider himself fortunate if he feels this heartfelt love for Jesus Christ, if he has joined Him with all his heart and professes Him to people until he dies …. for he will enter the kingdom which Jesus Christ Himself opened to him through His crucifixion …. The living bond with Him presupposes profound faith, and such faith presupposes love again …. a life of selfless neighbourly love, which faith awakens to life and provides the human being with ‘certainty’ where he had previously still questioned and doubted …. Anyone who can call such faith his own can truly already consider himself privileged on earth; he is like a rock, and the true church of Christ is built on such faith, that is, only someone in possession of such firm faith that came alive through love belongs to the church which was founded by Jesus. But then a person having attained this depth of faith will already be in a state of bliss, for nothing on earth will frighten him anymore because he will be aware of being embraced by the One Who had died for him on the cross and he will feel sheltered in His arms. Even death will not frighten him anymore; he will merely discard his external shell and enter a different kingdom, a kingdom of light and bliss, which is the fate of every person who has a living faith in Jesus Christ.

Amen
