Devotion to God …. knowing Jesus Christ ….
B.D. 7870 from April 12th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
How easy and carefree is your path through life if you take it by My hand, if you walk it in constant company of Me, if you only ever entrust yourselves to Me and let Me take care of you. Then you will also surely reach your aim, for you will truly not take the wrong path by My hand …. Heartfelt devotion to Me also guarantees that I will be your constant guide and companion, for where a heart of love beats towards Me I will no longer give way, for there My adversary has lost his right …. even though he will again and again try to present the world’s charms to you in order to turn you away from Me again. Yet anyone who is seized by My love, who makes it possible for My love to shine upon him, no longer desires the world and its pleasures …. He has found other goods which are worth striving for, and he no longer turns his gaze back but steadfastly upwards where he sees Me and now strives towards Me with all his senses …. The devotion to Me must have taken place, then the human being has also passed his test of will, then his will has confessed Me, then the path of return has finally been taken, which is guaranteed to end with Me …. And therefore I will promise you My constant presence if only you are willing to possess it, for then you will give Me your will and I will now never leave you again. Thus it need not mean an act of violence to acquire Me and My kingdom if only you give yourselves to Me in love …. But he will have to use force who still lacks love for Me, who still belongs to the world and therefore has to fight against the desire for the world …. A long time can pass until he has established the intimate bond with Me, although I also pursue him with My love and again and again try to capture him …. But I do not force his will, and he often still takes the path of worldly pleasures and joys which leads downwards and is repeatedly presented to the human being by My adversary as appealing until he frees himself from his desires of his own accord, until he turns his eyes towards Me and demands that I take him by the hand and guide him upwards …. It is always only a matter of your serious will, which must arise in the heart and cannot be replaced by mere words …. It is about the human being changing, that his nature, which until now was determined by My adversary, now allows itself to be determined by Me, that the human being enters into My will, that he fulfils the fundamental law of love, that he inserts himself into the eternal order again and thus takes on his original nature …. It is a matter of him no longer offering resistance when My love beams at him, i.e. that he consciously opens himself, that he desires to enter into contact with Me again and to possess My love which he had once rejected. Then he consciously acknowledges Me, and he also recognizes the former sin of apostasy …. But all this is not possible if he has not found the divine redeemer Jesus Christ …. For He alone gives him the strength to turn away from My adversary and towards Me …. It is He alone Who will then lead you by the hand, for He and I are one …. And the turning towards Me must therefore take place in Him, because otherwise you would never have the strength to separate yourselves willfully from the adversary …. For this lack of strength was the consequence of the great sin of turning away from Me, which has now only been atoned for through Jesus …. thus your weakness of will could only be strengthened by Him to turn away from My adversary and towards Me again, Who will now take you by the hand and truly lead you to the right aim. And if your will has decided in favour of Me, then you also belong to those redeemed through Jesus’ blood, you have found Him and recognized Me Myself in Him …. The heartfelt devotion to Me is also connected with the living faith in Jesus Christ, because you now brightly and clearly recognize His mission and are no longer able to separate Me from Him …. For devotion to Me takes place in love, and love is the light which now shines through you again, as it once did …. Without love you will not find the path to Me, without love you will not seek union with Me …. But love binds us together again eternally, love recognizes that you must join Me if you want to be eternally happy …. and love urges you towards Me, Who will now never ever let you go …._>Amen

Purpose of earthly existence ….
B.D. 7871 from April 13th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
You yourselves gave rise to your existence on earth when you refused to remain in the circuit of My flow of love. You had been independent beings which I externalised out of My love but which had always been in most heartfelt contact with Me and were therefore always permeated by My strength of love. As long as you accepted this emanation of love you were blissfully happy. But when you voluntarily left the circuit of My love, My strength of love became ineffective, which meant that you became incapable of being active since it has always necessitated My strength of love. Inactivity is solidification, inactivity is immobility …. it is a state of death, of complete lifelessness …. You voluntarily entered this state through you past rebellion against Me and you will remain in this state until you voluntarily enter the circuit of My love again. All beings which had once fallen away from Me must go through this process: of arising from death to life. Thus, the fallen spirits, having hardened as a result of rejecting My strength of love, had become incapable of all activity and were dissolved by My will into countless minute particles, which were encapsulated by My strength of love and shaped into creations of the most varied kinds …. These, in turn, helped the spiritual substances to become active again, albeit quite minimally, according to My will …. Activity is life …. The dead substance gradually awakened to life and the degree of activity constantly increased through new formations of the bound spirits within these works of creation …. You humans are now occupying the final form in which the once fallen being shall attain the highest degree of activity and is able to do so if it uses its restored free will in the right way …. Your external form is also a work of creation by My love which is to bring the process to conclusion: to result in eternal life for you which you cannot lose anymore when you have accomplished your return to Me.
However, your life as a human being also includes the great danger that you will misuse your free will for a second time and thereby render the whole previous process of development completely worthless …. that you will descend into the abyss again, that you will reject My love once more and harden in your spiritual substance …. that you will fall prey to death again …. Your existence as a human being is an inconceivable grace, for everything that can lead you to final perfection is offered to you …. However, how you use this grace is determined by your free will, and this can only ever be stimulated or influenced but never be forced to aim into the right direction. Nevertheless, you humans should know how extraordinarily significant your life on earth is: consequently, the correlations will be explained to you time and again, the knowledge is conveyed to you either directly or through My messengers which intends to awaken your sense of responsibility. Time and again you are instructed through My Word, and you also hear the voice of conscience within yourselves. Even so, it is up to you as to what you make of this knowledge …. it is up to you as to whether you want to accept My direct revelations. Yet even My greater than great love cannot do anything more but to convey such revelations to you which inform you of the consequences of a correct way of life, of the reason and purpose of your life on earth and of My will, the fulfilment of which will truly guarantee you a life of blissful happiness …. But I cannot make you believe My revelations, for just as you once left Me voluntarily, just as you once voluntarily rejected My love, you must also return to Me voluntarily, you must voluntarily enter the circuit of My flow of love again …. you must want to be closely united with Me again and you will truly enter into eternal life, you will return to your Father again and be eternally happy ….
Amen

Jesus' battle as a 'human being' ….
B.D. 7872 from April 14th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
When I came into the world as a human being, the Deity in Me was tremendously active for I brought love with Me to earth, which permeated Me from the start and only applied to My eternal Father …. And thus extraordinary things happened at My birth which you present-day humans no longer want to believe but which provided the people around Me with the evidence that I was the announced Messiah. Thus I brought love along to Earth …. but I had to forfeit the light, for people would have been unable to endure its brilliance …. And so I had to start waging the battle with all immature spiritual substances which, by way of My body, harassed the soul, for I had to mature as a ‘human being’, since I wanted to show people the path towards spiritualisation, which can only be achieved by love. Consequently, I had to try to pacify everything of an immature nature pestering Me, through the love inherent in Me I had to try to influence it such that it would abandon its desire, that it would subordinate itself to the soul’s desire and thus spiritualise and unite itself with the soul while I was still living on earth. This battle was truly not an easy one, for the human nature within Me had the same craving, the same longing for fulfilment as is the case with all people and despite My origin from above My nature was no different than that of you humans …. The world and its enticements attracted Me just as much as you, only My soul distanced itself from it because, due to its indwelling love, it recognised the dangers these worldly enticements offered and because I knew what mission I had to fulfil as ‘Jesus, the human being’. Nevertheless, the body demanded its own and thus it was often an extremely difficult battle to comply with the soul’s desire and to firmly resist all temptations. Yet the ‘love’ in Me gave Me strength, love drew Me irresistibly to the Father and the Father did not deny Himself to Me, He permeated Me progressively more and became active in Me, the ‘human being Jesus’ …. I realised the extent of adversity suffered by the human race which lacked love and therefore lacked the strength to resist the same temptations …. I knew why people were lacking love and that they were ruled by the one who is entirely devoid of love …. Hence I tried to motivate people into living in love …. I exemplified to them a life of love and constantly instructed them …. I gave them the commandments of love for God and one’s neighbour …. I attempted to make them understand the consequences of a life of love and proved it to them on Myself …. I healed the sick and performed miracles, and I was able to do so because I allowed the strength of love to become active, for love is God, and thus God Himself worked through Me because He dwelled in Me as the ‘Eternal Love’ …. People lacked love when I descended to earth but I was permeated by it for I was faithfully and with love devoted to the Father, I had remained with Him when the host of originally created spirits deserted Him …. My love for Him was greater than great and I did not deprive Myself of it when I came down to earth ….
My whole way of life was a continuous activity of love …. so that the body soon subordinated itself to this love, that the soul embraced it and together with the body united itself with the Eternal Love in Me …. But it would be wrong to say that My earthly path had been less difficult as a result of My extraordinary abundance of love, because I was extremely strongly influenced by demons besieging Me, which clung to Me and tried to pull Me down …. and which I could not shake off because My ‘love’ in Me did not allow for it; instead, I had to pacify them and lovingly try to persuade them to let go of Me and also promised them My help to ascend from the abyss to higher spheres again. I did not want to chase these demons away by virtue of My inherent great power, consequently I suffered far more than you humans can understand, and only the immense strength of love enabled the accomplishment of My act of Salvation, otherwise I would have fallen prey to the demons Myself which, however, would never have been possible because love, the Father Himself, dwelled within Me …. You humans are supposed to follow Me, you should likewise start waging the battle against all unspiritual things in and around you …. However, you would be incapable of doing so of your own strength because you still lack love which increases your strength …. But now you can turn to Me with an appeal for an influx of strength and it will truly be given to you by grace of the act of Salvation which I acquired on your behalf through My death on the cross. Yet without Me you will not release yourselves from the opposing power, without Me your resolve is too weak and you lack strength …. I Myself waged a very hard battle against My adversary who wanted to prevent Me from accomplishing the act of Salvation but I won the battle though love and want to help you because you are too weak. For you live in an entirely unspiritual world, you live in the world of the fallen spirit and are held captive by its prince. But I have redeemed you from his power and thus you can achieve the same as I …. so that you will emerge victoriously from the battle against all worldly cravings, so that your body will spiritualise itself at the same time as the soul, so that they will unite themselves with the Father of eternity, because you no longer need to accomplish this act by yourselves, you need only come to Me in order to receive the strength to be able to take the path of return to the Father from Whom you once originated. And this influx of strength signifies that love will ignite in you and flare up into brightest radiance, that you bring everything of an unspiritual nature in you into order through love, that you can resist every temptation and that you thereby release yourselves from your opponent …. for then you will be on My side and I will truly liberate you from him ….
Amen

"Divine revelations" radiate light ….
B.D. 7873 from April 15th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
The gift of grace of being addressed by Me obliges the passing on of My word, for it is always given to all people who are willing to accept a gift from Me. Yet the person who receives My word must also be aware of the fact that it is up to him that he receives purest spiritual knowledge, for this requires the profound desire to only want to pass on ‘truth’. And again he has to ask himself whether he makes himself available to Me so that I Myself can speak through him, because it is necessary that people hear Me Myself if they are to be impressed and change their way of life …. Hence he only has to feel like My mouthpiece, he must not let his own thoughts arise, he only has to be an instrument for Me which enables Me to speak Myself to people who want to listen to Me. Then My word can flow into the vessel in all purity, and now fellow human beings can draw and drink from the vessel and they will receive delicious spiritual knowledge, knowledge will be conveyed to them through the tool which can only be imparted to them by My spirit …. For what I give is delicious gift and therefore also to be recognized as emanation of Myself, because it gives you light and strength …. bright knowledge and a strong will to ascend and to reach your aim on earth which is set for you. And you humans will certainly also recognize My word as originating from Me if you seriously scrutinize it with the good will to stand in truth …. for My word contains wisdom within itself …. For light is wisdom …. Therefore, if I speak to you and want to give you light, then I must convey knowledge to you which reveals My wisdom …. I will certainly speak to you humans in an understandable way but nevertheless open up to you a deeper knowledge which you did not possess before …. For the spiritual knowledge I impart to you will always speak for itself, it will reflect My nature, it will radiate love, wisdom and power, you will receive information about My nature through My divine gift of grace …. Thus you yourselves will increase in knowledge, in light, in realization …. It will become light in you where before there was darkness …. in truth a light will be kindled within you. When the word Itself descends to earth …. i.e., when I Myself approach you and address you, then you can be assured that you will receive something delicious, that spiritual knowledge will be conveyed to you which cannot be brought to you from the human side …. which thus allows an insight into My kingdom, into My rule and activity and into My relationship with you …. In truth, a ‘knowledge’ is made accessible to you when you receive My direct revelations, and to pass this ‘knowledge’ on is your task which is connected with the reception. These revelations differ from speeches which can be experienced by every person who intimately unites with Me and desires to hear words of comfort and love from Me, whom I now also consider in the form of warnings and admonitions according to his nature and whom I also address through the heart …. But his task is different from the proclamation of My gospel, the passing on of the pure truth, the carrying of light into the darkness …. a mission which requires direct instruction and introduction into the truth from My side …. Every person has the duty to live a life of love and also to point out to his fellow human being that he can only become blissfully happy through love for Me and his neighbour. And I can also particularly encourage him to do so by only ever imparting words of love to him which he himself hears in his heart and also passes on to his fellow human beings. For only love results in spiritual progress, and love cannot be preached enough in the world …. And anyone who does such for Me, who encourages his fellow human beings to work with love, will truly be blessed by Me, he will be active on My behalf and also kindle a light where it is still dark …. Yet divine ‘revelations’ should not be devalued by also referring to human words as such, which are not to be addressed as ‘revelations on My part’ …. And you humans are easily inclined to value personal speeches as ‘My word’ and then allow yourselves to be impressed by those speeches. And then you can easily run the risk of no longer being able to distinguish whose spiritual knowledge you accept. And darkness can gather around you instead of becoming light in you. Believe that I reveal Myself to you in order to introduce you to the truth, in order to kindle the light of knowledge in you …. But seriously examine whether you can indeed discover the glow of a light or whether you are only illuminated by blinding lights which do not radiate any glow, which only feign a light for you …. But you humans need only desire ‘light from Me’ and then it will also shine in you …. you will increase in knowledge, the truth will be offered to you about things which cannot be fathomed by you in any other way than through the working of My spirit in the human being …. which increase your inner light and which therefore can only reach you as (through?) divine revelations through people into whom I can let My spirit flow so that they testify of Me …._>Amen

How to follow Jesus ….
B.D. 7874 from April 16th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
He is My true follower who makes an effort to live on earth as I did, who stands firm in suffering, bears it with patience and perfects himself in love, for he will mature in his soul. I can only ever advise you to ‘follow Jesus’, for the man Jesus has taken this path on earth …. His life had truly been hard, yet He bore it humbly, He took up the battle against darkness, i.e., He tried to re-establish order and to enlighten people as to why they lived in spiritual darkness and what they should do to escape this darkness. He consciously walked the path of suffering and love …. And He shaped Himself such that I was able to take abode in Him …. And you should all walk this path and through love and sorrow try to shape yourselves such that I Myself, Who is the Eternal Love, can be present to you. You must follow Me, you must try to imitate the life I lived in the human being Jesus. And this first of all requires the will to unite yourselves with Me again …. Only love can accomplish this union, and suffering purifies your soul which still harbours many immature particles. It also spiritualises the body, so that it conforms to the desires of the spirit within you, so that it matures simultaneously with the soul and the union with Me can take place. This purification must come first, and for the sake of this purification you are living on earth …. And as soon as you take Me as an example your life on earth will not be in vain, it will take you to the goal: complete spiritualisation and unification with Me ….
A human being had to become an example to you or you would always have raised the objection that you cannot follow Me because it is beyond your ability, beyond your strength …. However, the path I walked on earth as a human being Myself was so arranged that every person would be able to follow Me. Nothing impossible is demanded of you, nothing is expected of you that a sinful person cannot accomplish, for I took all your weaknesses and faults into account, I identified Myself with every person’s inclination and circumstances …. for whatever they may be . . . if you live a life of love then you also gather the strength which lets you accomplish even the most difficult task …. You will grow above yourselves, for you receive the strength from Me, just as I, thanks to the love within Myself, also had the strength at My disposal which enabled Me to be victorious in the battle against darkness, in the battle against all temptations by My adversary and against all cravings of the flesh …. Love is strength, and therefore I first had to preach love and live a life of love Myself in order to set you the right example of the way of life which leads you out of the abyss towards the pinnacle, that liberates you from the adversary …. For love is the only weapon to which he succumbs. You have to follow Me if you want to become free from his control …. And neither can suffering be avoided if your soul is to become bright and clear which, in its human incarnation, is still full of impurities because it is still in the domain of the one who changed his nature to the opposite, who thus can be called ‘evil’ in the true sense of the word and to whose nature you conformed when you deserted Me and followed him into the abyss of your own free will ….
Admittedly, due to their process through the creations the tiny particles of soul have become much purer when they united again as the soul of a human being, but many impurities will still have to be removed, which can only ever be accomplished by love and suffering …. The forgiveness of your guilt of sin will indeed be guaranteed as soon as you acknowledge Me in Jesus Christ and appeal for forgiveness of it …. And that means that on your departure from this world you will find the gate to the kingdom of light open to you …. But the intensity of light that will then shine upon you is very different …. And you will be extremely happy if your soul can be completely permeated, if the light is not obstructed by any impurities which still have to be dissolved …. And because you can already achieve on earth that your soul will be bright and translucent at the time of its passing away from earth you shall also humbly and patiently endure all suffering on earth …. you always ought to bear in mind that it is only beneficial for the maturity of your soul, you should not try to evade all affliction and always pray ‘Father, Thy will be done ….’ For I know why I let you walk the path of suffering and why I spoke the Words ‘Follow Me ….’ If you always try to imagine that I have walked the path before you, which has been so much harder and more sorrowful than yours, then for love of Me you should accept everything I send or allow to happen to you, for that is the light cross you have to bear in your earthly life, which only ever benefits your soul ….
Amen

Renewed banishment is the reason for the unusual revelations ….
B.D. 7875 from April 19th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
I Am revealing Myself in an unusual way before the end to you humans by conveying knowledge to you from which you should draw the consequences …. knowledge which so far had been withheld from you because it was of no significance for your salvation of soul, because you still had time to change your character and were also still able to achieve this in the beyond although under far more difficult conditions …. But it was still possible for you to be redeemed for as long the time you were granted for releasing yourselves from the form had not yet run out …. This time, however, is drawing to an end and that means either your return to Me or the renewed path through the creations of earth. But the knowledge about the latter has been withheld from you until now, for it would only have induced you to spend your earthly life under a certain amount of duress, which I, however, will not use for the sake of your perfection …. But now it concerns the human being’s last free decision, it concerns the soul’s salvation or its renewed banishment, because after the end of this earth higher development in the spiritual kingdom will become impossible for a long time to come, since the gates of this kingdom will remain closed until the new earth has again entered the state in which immature people will depart once more from this earth, in which case My merciful love will also want to help them attain maturity in the beyond again. Yet before this period of Salvation comes to an end I will still make use of all means in order to save you from the awful fate of a renewed banishment …. And therefore I inform you humans of the path you have already travelled before you reached your embodiment as a human being on earth. And My revelations are so unusual because most people are lacking this knowledge. But since the fate of a renewed banishment is only now becoming the imminent disaster …. since until now the opportunity still existed to mature in the kingdom of the beyond if it was neglected on earth, it was not necessary for people to know about the prior long process of development before …. although occasionally I was able to address people directly and so introduced them to this knowledge ….
However, now the time has come when people are in utmost danger but when it is still possible for them to avoid this danger if they have the serious will to endeavour towards a change …. And the knowledge about the process of development, of a repeated banishment in matter is intended to motivate them into this change of will …. This is why I reveal Myself in an unusual way, this is why I convey a knowledge to earth which can have tremendously beneficial results for people by just paying attention to it, by allowing My Words to take effect on them, think about them and then also live their life accordingly. But there are only a few who believe what is conveyed to them by extraordinary means …. And I cannot compel faith …. Therefore I cannot reveal Myself by any other means but through a human mouth either, for an enforced faith is worthless and will not result in the soul’s progress. But the fact that I Myself reveal My plan of Salvation to you is a significant light which you humans are still being granted …. If you want to live in this light you will definitely take the right path …. For although I speak through a human mouth it is nevertheless the evidence of My love …. if I send My Word directly to earth, it is the evidence of My presence, in other words: you can call it an extraordinary gift of grace if you are taught about things which are inaccessible to a person’s intellectual knowledge …. which therefore cannot be explained to you by other people if I Myself do not work extraordinarily in this person too …. Therefore pay attention to My unusual revelations, don’t discard them as human work but believe that it is only My love which wants to reveal Itself to you because I would like to save you before the end, because I want to spare you the fate of a renewed banishment which, however, is inevitable, if you do not believe ….
Amen

God's revelations give light ….
B.D. 7876 from April 21st 1961, taken from Book No. 82
Again and again I emphasize that My spirit works in every person who fulfils the conditions I have attached to such activity. For I Myself have promised you My spirit that it will remain with you until the end of the world, for although I no longer physically lived amongst people I was nevertheless with My disciples in spirit and filled them with light and strength so that they could testify of Me according to My will. And thus I also repeatedly choose disciples for Myself upon whom I can pour out My spirit so that they, too, will repeatedly proclaim about Me …. Yet many are called but only a few are chosen. It is possible for you humans to awaken the spirit in you to life, so that I Myself can now thus express Myself through the spirit …. Yet only a few prepare themselves to serve as a vessel for My flow of spirit, to make themselves suitable as an instrument through which I can now express Myself, as I have promised. And therefore only a few are chosen to enter My service as proclaimers of the message of salvation, to teach fellow human beings truthfully and thus to preach the gospel of love to them again, to convey ‘My word’ to them, which I now convey to earth as the ‘working of My spirit’. Only a few are enabled to receive My word in all purity and to spread it in the same way …. Yet these few now also receive an unusual amount of knowledge which also makes their mission recognizable …. knowledge which also reveals its origin, knowledge which only I Myself can impart to people because it testifies to Me Myself, to My nature, My working and My wisdom …. This knowledge therefore proves Me Myself as the originator, and it can also never be refuted by people …. unless they are still in open opposition to Me, that they are completely incapable of passing judgment because they are still being worked on by My adversary who will always fight against the pure truth …. Hence, if I can convey such unusual knowledge to a person then it is also possible to speak of an obvious ‘working of My spirit’, and people can unhesitatingly believe if this knowledge is conveyed to them through My messengers. For they only ever need to apply the standard as to whether the knowledge provides information about My nature, which is love, wisdom and power.… for My revelations only ever intend that you humans gain a correct image of your God and creator, of your father of eternity, because I am courting your love, which you will only give to Me if you truly know Me and My nature, if you don’t form a distorted image of Me, but which arises and has arisen through error of every kind …. You shall experience the pure truth, and therefore I address you …. And I, in turn, can only address you through the spirit …. And this process requires the fulfilment of conditions: preconditions must be in place which establish a close bond from the spiritual spark in the human being with the father-spirit of eternity and thus also guarantee a direct supply of My word, which contains supreme wisdom within itself and can therefore be recognized as being of ‘divine‘ origin. This shall be told to you again and again that I certainly reveal Myself to all people through the voice of the heart, that everyone may feel addressed by Me, that I place into everyone’s heart what he should or should not do …. and that I order his thinking, that I enlighten him and thus he can always walk on the right path because he is guided and cared for by Me, as well as he devotes himself to Me intimately, as soon as he consciously requests My guidance …. But you should also know that I unmistakably reveal Myself in the word …. that I convey My word to earth which is intended to enlighten you humans, which gives you truthful knowledge so that you will come to know and love Me. Thus My word will enlighten you about My nature, My word will reveal My eternal plan of salvation to you, My word will make the meaning and purpose of your existence understandable to you …. My word will bring you light …. And this, then, is “My spirit” who introduces you to all truth …. You had lost the light through your apostasy from Me, you gave away your knowledge, your knowledge of everything …. I want to give it to you again if you are willing to accept it …. I want it to become light in you again, and therefore I address you humans through My word which is conveyed to you from above as the ‘working of My spirit’ …. and which you will always recognize as originating from Me by the immense abundance of divine wisdom and love which radiates towards you and which also proves to you a powerful God and creator. This is the yardstick to determine whether you receive divine revelations which inform you about My nature …. that they provide you with knowledge which cannot be conveyed to you in any other way than through the spirit. And then you will also be able to judge correctly when inferior gifts are offered to you which did not originate from Me …. For bright light must shine when I Myself kindle a light in you, and this light will have a luminosity which penetrates all darkness …._>Amen

God's grace and mercy ….
B.D. 7877 from April 23rd 1961, taken from Book No. 82
Trust in My grace and mercy and carry your burden of sin under My cross …. I have assured you of My forgiveness, no matter how much you have sinned …. I will not cast you out, for My love is so great that I Myself redeemed every debt for you because I do not want to lose you …. But you must recognize and confess your sins, you must feel guilty yourselves and strive to become free of them. Then My love can take hold of you and shine upon you again, because then your resistance, which you have offered Me for eternities and which has cancelled every effect of love, will also be broken. And only when you feel small and sinful do you humbly come to Me and ask Me to accept you again. Then you will voluntarily return to Me, you will have reached your aim for the purpose of which you stay on earth. Thus it is My grace and mercy which brings you back again …. (23.4.1961), for My infinite love cannot and will not let go of you because you are living creations of My love. And My love has given you utmost freedom because love does not tolerate coercion. The fact that you abused your freedom did not diminish My love. But since you rejected love and it could no longer become effective, My grace and mercy took its place. Mercy did not let you fall into endlessness and grace helped you …. i.e., I used means which helped you to ascend again as long as you were unable to undertake an ascent to Me of your own accord …. In your will to defend yourselves you did not deserve help, consequently they were graces which I bestowed upon you against your will because I took pity on your fate …. And you will be dependent on these graces until you have found your way back to Me of your own free will, where My love can shine upon you again and you will feel bliss again as you once did. Your wretchedness in the state of far distance from Me is self-inflicted, and it cannot be changed against your will …. But the fact that this will changes can be brought about by the supply of grace. And the fact that I bestow an abundance of grace upon you is caused by My profound mercy for the fallen being which has placed itself in a position where it has lost its spiritual bliss, where it is bound in lightlessness and weakness by My adversary but to whom it had handed itself over. For since My love for you has not diminished I cannot turn away from you indifferently and leave you to the adversary …. but My aim is to place you into the state of bliss again, and I therefore grant you constant help …. My love becomes active elsewhere because you rejected it …. For it does not give up on you, and thus I also truly know how it achieves its aim …. And again and again it will point you to Jesus Christ, in Whom I Myself accomplished the act of salvation for you …. again and again the divine work of mercy will be presented to you, which will grant you abundant grace if only you are willing to accept it …., for I will not let you go, even if you remain in defiance of Me for eternities …. My grace and mercy follows you, and My love courts you until it has won you over completely …._>Amen

The grace of receiving the Word is a commitment ….
B.D. 7878 from April 25th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
The grace of receiving the Word is a commitment …. on the one hand to distribute what comes to you from above, and on the other hand to endorse that which you recognise as truth towards your fellow human beings. It is futile if you, who receive the Word from Me, are satisfied with the information which is sent to you …. you should, with full conviction, pass this knowledge on to your fellow human beings who are in need of it. And you should not let yourselves be deceived by objections, for people will always do so, despite the fact that I Myself impart the pure truth to you which will always stand up to such objections. For this reason I need strong-willed servants who will stand up for what they receive …. And they will also always be able to clearly judge where error exists and therefore counteract it, because they are in My service and as My faithful servants in My vineyard are duty bound to do so. I convey the truth to earth because you humans are in need of light, you live in darkness because many fallacies were and are still offered to you …. Only truth leads to beatitude …. erroneous belief prolongs the path to the goal, for time and again it will obscure this path so that you humans will stray from the straight and narrow and require a long time until you get back on the right path towards ascent, on the path of truth, where the light is shining which I radiate down to earth for the sake of your benefit. Be glad that you may receive bright light and make use of this illumination …. Take the path that is shown to you, abide by My Word which sounds from above, which My servants convey to you on My instructions and which they can also justifiably endorse as pure truth because they have received it from Me …. And where you humans can recognise an obvious working of the spirit, that is where the pure truth from Me exists. And this is what you should adopt, but don’t mix it with spiritual knowledge whose origin is doubtful to you …. And because it is My will that the truth from Me shall remain pure I also expect those who receive it from Me to firmly endorse that which originated from Me, for they know that they are thereby of service to Me, because they recognise the extreme value of the information they receive through My spirit ….
Consequently, if the pure truth is in danger of becoming distorted it should be heedfully guarded, for My adversary avails himself of every opportunity which presents itself in order to render the truth from Me ineffective. And he succeeds in doing so as soon as different spiritual knowledge is added to it …. which was conceived by human intellect and which cannot be spoken of as the working of the spirit …. My Word should certainly be spread, but it shall be offered to people in all purity, just as it came forth from Me Myself …. And it is My servants’ task to ensure that this Word will remain pure, as far as it is within their power. For the seed shall not become contaminated because it is intended to bear good fruit. However, anyone whom I appoint to an office will also receive the strength from Me to administer it …. Hence, I will also guide you such that your attention will be drawn to where your work is needed, where you shall carry out your mission, and I will always guide your thoughts correctly so that you will work according to My will …. For receiving My Word is a grace of utmost significance, and anyone who wants to serve Me will therefore always have My support and at all times take the path which corresponds to My will …. I Myself will guide him, I Myself will turn his thoughts in the right direction, and I Myself will give him the strength to work in accordance with My will ….Amen

Implementation of the plan of salvation ….
B.D. 7879 from April 26th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
And anyone who offers himself to Me for service will also be accepted by Me, because I still need many servants in My vineyard, for the time is coming to an end and much work still has to be done. But what does the work consist of which you should do for Me? …. And why do I keep urgently recruiting labourers who are willing to serve Me faithfully?… It is the time of the end which you can no longer stop, for I carry out My plan of salvation as it has been planned since eternity …. And I truly know when a period of salvation has to come to an end, when it will no longer be successful. I also know about the fate of the spiritual substances which are still bound in form and which have to experience a change as soon as the time has come. And even if it may seem incredible to you humans, you should nevertheless reckon with a quick end and prepare yourselves for it. You, who are of good will, should be prepared to do vineyard work, that is, to point out to your fellow human beings that the end will come soon and proclaim My word to them, the gospel of love, the living out of which will yield ripe human fruit which can be harvested at the end of days …. And I will truly bless everyone who serves Me in such a way that he proclaims Me Myself to those who do not believe in Me, for there is great need …. because people do not believe in an end and because they therefore go through life irresponsibly …. But the end comes irrevocably …. And you humans will no longer stop it because the time is fulfilled …. But how do you want to be active as My servants in the vineyard if you don’t believe the words of your father of the house, if you don’t take His instructions seriously and act according to your own discretion? And you do this when you teach your fellow human beings differently than this is My will …. you do this when you give them hope for a long life when they only have little time left to mature as good fruit before the end. I truly don’t want to condemn you because of your faith in My love, yet bear in mind that precisely because of My infinite love I have to put an end to this earth with all its creations, because I truly also recognize in My wisdom what serves everything created by Me so that it will one day become blissfully happy …. But humanity is drifting towards the abyss and I want to stop this fall into the deepest depth …. And what would people have gained at the end of their life, even if the earth remained as you wish, you who don’t know My plan of salvation from eternity? Death is certain for every human being, no-one can avert it from himself, yet only he need not fear it who has found Me.… And if you, as My servants in My vineyard, thus help your fellow human being to find Me, it is completely irrelevant when this person will depart from earth, for he will enter into eternal life …. Only you should not forget that there is not much time left …. you should believe this and work all the more diligently …. therefore you should proclaim the gospel of love wherever an opportunity presents itself to you, and you should never awaken the hope in your fellow human beings that they still have a long time, you should never consider a ‘near end’ questionable, for this end is imminent, it will take you by surprise even though it has been announced to you again and again. If you want to be true servants to Me, then believe what I say to you through the spirit …. Do not doubt it, for I alone can give you information about what will happen and why it has to happen …. And My plan of salvation has been determined from eternity which will also certainly be carried out because My love, wisdom and might are decisive and because only your eternal bliss shall be achieved through this plan of salvation …._>Amen

Thought waves from beings of light …. Spirit-guides ….
B.D. 7880 from April 27th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
I would like all of you to gain eternal life, so that you will be free from every physical form and can pass into the spiritual kingdom in light and strength and freedom. For My only goal is your eternal beatitude. And I will truly not rest in pursuing you and your love because only love will let you reach the final goal. Yet I will always allow you free will, and this is still refused Me because you lack love; for I Myself Am Love and if love is not within you I, Who would like to provide you with an abundance of bliss, cannot be present in you either. And as long as I Am still far away from you darkness will still be within you, for I Am also the Light of eternity Which has to shine brightly in you if you joyfully want to recognise yourselves and your origin. But as long as it is still dark in you, you are still being held captive by the lord of darkness who wants to prevent you from realising and striving towards the light …. Thus you are still under the control of My adversary from whom I, however, would like to release you yet will only be able to do so if you have the will to escape from him. Consequently, your will determines your fate, for your will has to decide for itself which lord it acknowledges; thus you have to make this decision yourselves as long as you live as a human being on this earth. But until then you are surrounded by shadowy beings which compete for your will and influence you in every way yet without being able to force you. However, you have a great gift of grace: you are able to think, and you need only to use this gift of grace correctly and for once try to ascertain the purpose and meaning of your earthly life …. In that case beings of light will certainly inspire right thoughts in you, since a desire for understanding will be judged as a desire for Me, Who is the Light and the Truth of eternity …. You are all capable of thinking but you rarely use this gift of grace in order to receive clarification about spiritual questions, which can only be given to you by beings of light who work on My instruction when you ask yourselves such questions ….
The spiritual beings will affect you such that thought waves will flow to you concerning questions of that nature …. If you reject them then illumination cannot be given to you; if you accept and contemplate them then you will also mentally receive the answer from these beings of light, and you will subsequently be able to make your own free decisions …. Therefore you can look for light and will find it …. but you can also shy away from light and remain in darkness …. But time and again light will be brought to you, time and again My love will pursue you and help you become aware of yourselves and then also find the path to Me …. But adverse forces influence you in the same way by encircling you with thought currents of an earthly nature, which the human being prefers to accept and ponder about …. for he is totally at liberty to accept or reject what mentally impinges upon him. The infinite patience of the beings of light, their great love for those who are unredeemed, will not cease, and time and again they will try to influence their protégés into listening to them, for they work on My instructions. The work they carry out in the spiritual kingdom is their redemption work, they are only the executors of My will albeit they are extraordinarily happy by being allowed to work for Me because they gladly subordinated themselves to My will, because in their state of maturity they have no other will but Mine, since they are permeated by My love and therefore their love also applies to the unredeemed …. to people who have been entrusted to their guidance and protection. For all of you have spiritual guides who accompany you from the time of your birth until your death and who fight for your souls against the enemy …. Yet your will alone is decisive which, however, will one day submit itself to Me with certainty, because it cannot resist the strength of My love forever ….
Amen

Taking notice of God's plan of Salvation ….
B.D. 7881 from April 28th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
The fact that I reveal My plan of Salvation to you should make you realise the significance of the time you live in. The knowledge I convey to you in all clarity is intended to give you an insight into My reign and activity, it explains to you the purpose of your earthly life, the meaning and purpose of creation …. this knowledge is so momentous and extensive that it could not humanly be offered to you …. such knowledge can only be imparted to you through the working of My spirit. The light I transmit to earth can shine exceedingly brightly and dispel the darkness if you humans are receptive to it, if you allow yourselves to be impressed by it as soon as I address you …. And the reason why I transmit this extraordinary knowledge is because you are approaching the end …. If you have been informed of My plan of Salvation you will also understand that one period of Salvation comes and must come to an end, for then you will only look at everything from the point of view that the fallen spirits must be given every opportunity to start the path of return to Me …. be it the human being or the spiritual substances which are still bound in the creations which, in their fundamental substance, emerged from Me as a being and shall also return to the Father’s house as a being again ….
Since you know My eternal plan of Salvation you will also know about the infinitely long process of development which the fallen spirits have to travel in order to ascend again …. In that case you will also mercifully consider those who have not yet reached the stage of a human being and which suffer in their constraints because they originally came forth from Me as a free spirit …. And you will also know that it is due to the human being’s free will if he fails during his earthly life, and that this free will therefore creates his own fate …. that his life on earth is unwarranted if he makes no use of his embodiment as a human being …. Hence you can understand that this spiritual being forfeits its own earthly life and that the termination of one period of Salvation is merely an act of love on My part, Who also wants to help the advancement of those spirituals substances who long for their final form so as to be able to release themselves for good by taking the final path across earth as a human being …. And I inform you humans of My plan of Salvation in the last days as a special grace because it will make it easier for you to believe in an end once you have correctly recognised the correlations …. For even if a thousand years are like a day before Me …. the last day which has been determined for eternity will nevertheless arrive sooner or later …. And then I will separate the sheep from the goats …. and those who are and remain faithful to Me will be saved, none of those need be afraid when the earth begins to tremble, for their life will be guaranteed for all eternity ….
Therefore, understand My Words correctly and don’t doubt Me and My Word, which comes to you from above announcing a near end to you and which will fulfil itself because it is the truth …. Those who take notice of My revelations should really find it easy to believe since you are aware of all the correlations …. For I have revealed My ‘plan of Salvation’ to you, you have received extraordinary knowledge to enlighten you, so that you will be able to believe …. You cannot persuade Me not to carry out My plan of Salvation, you cannot delay the day of the end because it has been predetermined for eternity …. But every one of you can belong to those to whom I have promised My protection if they remain faithful to Me …. you can belong to the few righteous people whom My arm will protect, whom I will lift away from earth when the hour has come which signifies the end for all creations on, in and above the earth …. For My might is great, My love is infinite and applies to all as yet unredeemed spiritual beings, and My wisdom truly knows when the time is right for a necessary change if the higher development is to continue in accordance with My eternal order …. And My love, wisdom and might will constantly be at work when it concerns the return of all fallen spirits who shall come home into My Fatherly house ….
Amen

A "teacher" must be filled with the spirit ….
B.D. 7882 from April 30th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
No further explanation is required for the transmission of My word from above other than that I Myself want to bestow the truth upon you because you walk in error, because you have perverted many doctrines of faith and because in the course of time the gospel I taught on earth has been contaminated in such a way that your spirit has become darkened instead of enlightened. You have made assertions which completely deviate from the truth and it is no longer possible for you to recognize Me and My nature correctly …. You interpret the written word, the scriptures, in a wrong way, you go by the letters and don’t know the spiritual meaning of the words which I have put into them …. You are no longer able to distinguish ‘God’s word’ from additional human work …. You argue with each other because everyone represents different doctrines, and you are far away from the pure truth …. And I want to give it to you again and therefore convey My word to earth, I bring you a light in whose glow you can recognize error if you yourselves desire the pure truth …. again and again the human being’s intellect has intervened and suppressed the truth, because the intellect can be influenced by My adversary who fights against the truth because he wants to prevent you from recognizing Me correctly and then also striving towards Me …. Yet if you want to live in the light of truth you must also do your part: You must live in love and desire the truth …. Then it will also be your share. Yet without love you will not grasp the truth either, and you will distort its meaning again and continue to remain in error. The fact that I therefore manifestly appear by giving you evidence of My presence when I address you should not seem strange to you, for I am the eternal truth and will again and again seek access to you because I want to grant you eternal life which, however, can only be found through truth. But only the person who possesses the truth himself will be able to approach his fellow human beings as a teacher, and this person must have received it from Me himself …. But many people ‘teach’ who do not yet know the truth themselves, and error is spread instead of proclaiming the truth. The teacher must be so intimately united with Me that he receives the truth directly from Me when he teaches his fellow human beings …. Thus a ‘teacher’ must be filled by My spirit, then he will only represent the pure truth, because then he will be a true labourer for Me in My vineyard who scatters good seed in people’s hearts which shall sprout and bear fruit. Therefore, everyone should first shape himself such that I Myself can speak through him if he wants to instruct his fellow human beings as a preacher, if he wants to bring them the gospel which guarantees pure truth …. which I Myself taught when I lived on earth. If My spirit cannot work in a ‘teacher’ then someone else will speak from him, for then it will not be his heart which impels him to proclaim the gospel but only his intellect, which My adversary can then also use by trying to obscure the light which, however, the pure truth signifies for the human being. You, who proclaim My gospel, you should be serious about shaping yourselves so that I can pour out My spirit upon you …. You shall not speak out of your intellect, but you shall let Me Myself speak through the heart …. And truly, you will distance yourselves from teachings which are untrue, you will inwardly resist advocating something which does not correspond to the truth, for My spirit will then warn you against it …. And you should check how far your thinking is in accordance with My word, which I Myself convey to you from above …. For I am the eternal truth, and what is from Me must be truth …. And you will also recognize the origin of it at any time if you yourselves are serious about standing in the pure truth …. Only I Myself can convey it to you, and I am truly always willing to shine a light into the darkness on earth, for only in the light will you find the right path, only through the light of truth will you attain eternal life …._>Amen

The near end is certain ….
B.D. 7883 from May 2nd 1961, taken from Book No. 82
And whether an end may seem incredible to you …. it is imminent for you …. To give you an exact time would not be helpful for your soul’s salvation, but you should be content if I indicate to you that it is imminent, and you should live and work on yourselves as if the last day had already come tomorrow. For in view of the length of a redemption period which is now coming to an end, only a very short time can still be spoken of which remains for your redemption, for only a few phases will pass until the end which are necessary for the separation of spirits …. And as it has been predetermined since eternity, everything will also come to pass, because it is not an arbitrary process when this earth is reshaped but everything has its spiritual reason and thus everything also takes effect as a result of people’s failure on this earth in their last test of will. However, you humans can all feel safe in My protection if you believe in Me and are willing to enter into My will …. you can expect all events with inner equanimity, always trusting that I will protect My own …. provided you want to belong to My own …. But you should believe in an end and take the transformation of your nature into love seriously. If you lack this faith you will be lukewarm, then you will not be aware of the seriousness of the time which, however, is recognizable as the last time because I have often mentioned the signs by which you can recognize the approach of the end …. And therefore you should only be attentive and look around you with open eyes …. You should also try to associate My obvious gift of grace with the fact that unusual things are about to happen to you, which is why I also try to have an unusual effect on all people in order to shake them up, so that they become awake and realize the time in which they live. And they should not carelessly give in to the hope that I will be pass off with the end …. For I know when this transformation of earth has to take place, I know when people’s low level has reached such a point that a change has to be created, that a turning point has to occur which, however, will not only take place spiritually but also earthly. For on this earth humanity never changes so that it strives for a higher spiritual level …. On this earth only a decline can be expected, for more and more people fall away from faith, more and more people deny Jesus Christ and His act of salvation …. more and more people fall into matter and strive back again towards the state they had long since overcome. And everyone is responsible for himself, for his will and actions; everyone has to accomplish the transformation of his being on himself …. because every human being is a once fallen original being which has to prove its will to finally return to Me …. And therefore don’t give yourselves over to false hopes …. The end is irrevocably coming and you will no longer be able to stop it. But every individual can avert the fate of a new banishment for himself if only he surrenders himself to Me and then has also provided the proof of having passed the test of will …. then he may stay wherever he likes …. he will be saved from the end, for I know the state of every soul and its will, I also know that and how he can be saved, for My arm reaches far and will surely take hold of My own in order to fetch them to Himself when the adversity will be so great that only I Myself will be able to remedy it …. Believe in Me alive and you will also be able to believe in the end which will come according to the plan of salvation from eternity …. which will take you by surprise because the day I have determined for it will be observed and because the time is fulfilled …._>Amen

The letter kills …. Lifeless proclaimers of the Word ….
B.D. 7884 from May 3rd 1961, taken from Book No. 82
It is the spirit which gives life …. and every letter read with an unawakened spirit kills; it will remain incomprehensible to the human being regardless of how much effort he intellectually exerts in order to fathom its meaning …. And this has led to many errors, insofar as that My Word was translated or preached to fellow human beings by people who were spiritually unawakened themselves and who let their intellect dictate where the heart alone should have been able to judge or clarify matters had My spirit been allowed to express itself through it. I Myself was no longer able to speak to people through a preacher; instead he provided them with his own teachings and explanations which no longer corresponded to the truth. And thus the meaning of the Gospel, which I Myself taught on earth, became increasingly more distorted in due course, and only a few read ‘My Word’ with an awakened spirit and derive the right benefit from it for their souls. For all others, however, the strength of My Word remains ineffective, they listen to it, but because they don’t understand it correctly they don’t live accordingly and therefore cannot attain spiritual awakening either …. For rarely will preachers mention the ‘working of the spirit in the human being’ because they don’t understand it themselves …. because they don’t know that it is the direct result of a life of love and that they would be able to convince themselves that they become brightly illuminated if they lived a life of love themselves …. They read the sentence: The letter kills, but the spirit gives life …. and don’t know what it means …. for they are still spiritually unawakened themselves. And this is why one can almost speak of a dead Christendom, this is why My Word, which is contained in the Book of Books, does not do a lot for people anymore, this is why the faith has become faint and weak, it lacks the strength of life, for it can only come alive through love, and love awakens the spirit ….
And if only a tender seedling grows from the warmth of love, then it will soon become strong and vigorous …. A living faith will develop and everything will awaken to life which so far had lain dormant in the person …. The soul will arise and allow itself to be influenced by the spark of spirit, it will come alive and never ever lose this life again. But then the person will also understand every Word which originated from Me …. he will be able to distinguish error from truth and by no means fall prey to error, for then he will be instructed by the spirit and empty letters will mean nothing to him, he will know the spiritual meaning of the Word …. And every Word that once came forth from Me and reaches his ears and heart will grant him life. Then he will truly no longer be a dead Christian and also be able to vividly testify to Me, he will not just use the Words of the Scriptures but also be capable of clarifying their spiritual meaning …. he will in truth be a teacher of his fellow human beings in accordance with My will, for he then will let Me Myself be in him so that I can express Myself through the spirit when he instructs his fellow human beings …. And only those who work on My instructions are My true servants …. For I do not call a proclaimer of My Word who only knows the letters without understanding their spiritual meaning My servant …. because he has appointed himself and not made himself worthy of My calling first, which requires that a person wanting to work for Me is spiritually awake. Yet as soon as he not only teaches love, which is the epitome of My Gospel …. as soon as he also lives a life of love, he will also awaken the spirit in him to life, and then he will be a welcome servant for Me through whom I will be able to work, through whom I will be able to address people Myself who then can also perceptibly feel the strength of My Word …. And those who allow themselves to be awakened will come to life again, who look for Me with a sincere will and appeal to Me for the strength of My spirit …. For they will make an effort to live My Word …. by living a life of love they will awaken the spirit within them, they will no longer be lifeless proclaimers of My Word but full of life and bearing witness to Me ….
Amen

The work of redemption through Jesus Christ ….
B.D. 7885 from May 4th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
You cannot occupy your thoughts often enough with Jesus Christ’s act of salvation, for it was the most powerful thing that has ever happened and will ever happen on earth …. I Myself, your God and creator, your father from eternity, embodied Myself in this human being Jesus and walked the path across earth as a human being …. You will not be able to grasp this until you stand in the highest abundance of light; yet as a human being it shall be held up to you again and again that this great event took place because of you …. And you truly cannot think often enough about the infinite love which prompted Me to put on flesh in order to be able to come close to you, who otherwise would have passed away in view of My light if I had not veiled Myself to you in order to be able to dwell with you …. I Myself …. the greatest spirit of infinity …. entered this earth and took on the form of a human being because it was necessary to accomplish a work of atonement for you and your immense guilt of sin in order to pave the way for you humans back to Me again, from Whom you had once voluntarily distanced yourselves. And this work of atonement was truly unique, for the most bitter suffering and pain ever endured by a human being, Who was pure and sinless and full of love, was inflicted on him …. He was tormented physically and mentally and patiently took all these torments upon Himself in order to atone for the great guilt of sin of His fallen brothers …. And in this man was I Myself …. I could not suffer as a spirit, therefore I took on the shell of a human being in order to take upon Myself the suffering which meant the redemption of the guilt of sin and which could not be avoided for the sake of justice, which demands atonement for every offence against My love …. This is why your God and creator, your father of eternity, embodied Himself in this human being Jesus, this is why I Myself lived on this earth as a human being, because I wanted to bring salvation to you, who otherwise would have remained eternally separated from Me due to your guilt of sin and would never have been able to take the path back to the father, because the path to the kingdom of light was closed to you as long as your guilt had not been redeemed …. Yet as long as you humans stay on earth you cannot grasp the full depth of this great work of mercy …. because your thinking is limited and you are still in darkness, i.e. in a state without knowledge …. until you yourselves have found forgiveness through Jesus Christ, until you yourselves have been redeemed by Him through His blood which He shed on the cross for humanity’s guilt of sin …. only then will it become bright in you, and only then will you be able to muster understanding for the great work of love of your God and creator of eternity …. only then will you also be able to understand Who walked the earth in the man Jesus, Who redeemed you from sin and death …. And ever brighter light will shine in you the further you progress in your maturity of soul …. if you live in love as the man Jesus exemplified to you …. Then you will also often dwell with Him in your thoughts, you will recognize Me Myself in Him, you will sing praise and thanks to Me in your heart that I Myself descended to earth in order to bring you salvation, which only I Myself could bring to you by sacrificing Myself in Jesus for you and your sins. My death on the cross was a unique act of love which was accomplished for all times, for the past, the present and the future …. And it will never be repeated …. But in the spiritual kingdom it can be experienced at any time by the world of light, by all beings who have entered the kingdom of light and who can also measure the immense love and grace of their father, who caused that great act of love …. And they will praise and glorify Me and My name, for in their abundance of light they recognize the significance of the work of salvation, and full of love and gratitude they participate in it by seeking to lead the unredeemed spiritual beings to Jesus Christ and thus to Me Myself, Who was and remained in Him in order to be and remain a visible God to all created beings for all eternity …._>Amen

Space exploration is not God's will ….
B.D. 7886 from May 6th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
The strength which emanates from Me and My Word will touch your soul and you will find peace in Me …. When you are ready to serve Me then the strength to accomplish My will, which I place into your heart Myself, will also flow to you. And you will think, want and act in accordance with My will …. And thus you can always safely proceed on your way, My blessing will always accompany you, I will take you by your hand and guide you such as it is right for you and your fellow human beings’ salvation of soul. Just put your trust in Me and truly, I will never allow your confidence in me to falter …. For although your body does not feel the evidence of this strength but your soul receives it in abundance instead and is grateful for all support, the soul matures and unites itself with its spirit, and this strives towards the Father-Spirit, and the unity with Me will become ever closer. And if I Am then able to speak to My child My presence will be confirmed too and peace has to enter its heart, every worry has to vanish and the child only has to listen to what his Father has to say to him:
And I still want to reveal much more to you, for the end is swiftly approaching …. You will still experience things which will make you doubt Me and My Word …. You will ask yourselves why I do not intervene with My might when humanity arrogantly dares to penetrate the universe …. But a limit has been imposed on their projects, they will not be able to implement their experiments for long, for even these actions merely hasten the end, the forthcoming Judgment. I will let them have their way, so that time and again they will have to realise that their capability will never suffice in order to complete their projects. They have handed themselves over to My adversary who will constantly influence their mind and also give them a certain amount of strength which, however, will always have disastrous effects on people as well as the works of creation My adversary wants to destroy. It is the time of the end, which is merely emphasised by such actions, for people’s spiritual state itself will give rise to the end. My adversary wants to destroy the belief in My existence and My might, and such people are already subject to him due to the fact that they have lost all faith, deem themselves masters of creation and try to prove it. Yet they will not have much time left for that, because they hasten the end themselves since they revoke the laws of nature themselves and thereby pave the way for a work of destruction which will encompass the whole world and every living creation in, on and above the earth ….
People’s actions oppose God and that will also result in appropriate consequences …. But I allow My adversary’s rage, yet people themselves could resist it and would then not become subject to his rule …. Time and again people are reminded of Me and My might and could quite easily take the path to Me …. Their will, however, is free and thus I do not prevent their actions, but My might and My will shall also reveal itself to those responsible for the anti-God activity that can be witnessed by all people …. They, too, will repeatedly be shown that a divine Power keeps expressing Itself Which proves their wrong thinking, for until the body dies I invite every soul to return to Me …. but I will not force it. And since My adversary cannot force it either, he influences all bad characteristics in a person even more and gains the soul for his disgraceful plan, since the craving for power and recognition is particularly strongly developed in people who do not believe in Me. For these are My adversary’s characteristics …. It is his nature, which he passes on to them. But his time will soon be over, and My might, too, will soon visibly express itself …. Yet I will never give you such obvious proof of Myself that you have to believe in Me …. Time and again you have to bear in mind that I expect your voluntary faith which you should awaken through love …. And then you will also recognise the signs of the time; you will understand that you live in the last days when My adversary works in unusual ways, until the hour comes when he and his followers will be constrained, as it is has been proclaimed in Word and Scripture ….
Amen

Right to use the life force …. eternal life ….
B.D. 7887 from May 7th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
My love sustains everything and My love fulfils everything, for it is the strength which constantly flows through all My creations, without which no work of creation could exist. And therefore the human being also constantly receives My strength of love, it secures his life, i.e., all strength of life flows to him from Me, which he indeed takes for granted but which enables the human being to acquire spiritual strength which then secures him eternal life, even though he has to surrender his life, thus seemingly loses the strength of life. But true life only begins in the spiritual kingdom …. If therefore My strength of love flows through everything it follows that nothing negative can touch My creation from My side and that thus every work of creation must promote progressive development …. that it therefore fulfils a purpose which My love and wisdom has assigned to it …. For divine strength of love must always result in positive success …. But excluded from this rule is the human being in whose will it lies to use the life force positively or negatively, which fills him as long as he walks the earth. For it is up to his will how he evaluates his life force. His task is to acquire spiritual strength, which he does when he carries out works of love, when he only ever uses his vitality in order to serve out of inner drive …. out of love …. Then he opens himself to the spiritual radiation of love which he had once rejected …. And then My flow of love-power can flow through him and his life in eternity is assured …. But he can also completely fail as a human being if he only uses his vitality negatively, i.e. if he only strives for earthly things which are transient, if he does not recognize his actual task, if he therefore does not strive for an increase of spiritual strength and leaves his ego, which also remains after the death of the body, in a completely dead state, which is now incapable of any activity because it no longer possesses bodily vitality and had not acquired spiritual strength on earth …. Nevertheless, it remains in existence because nothing can pass away which has emerged from Me and My love …. And because My love gives up nothing it will also constantly endeavour to give life to the dead. But this process takes an infinitely long time again until it has to acquire ‘life’ for itself again of its own free will …. Nothing can pass away that I once created, but a state always comes for everything created where it creates life or death for itself …. For life, which lasts forever, is a state of perfection which the being in a state of free will must always attain if it wants to live for eternity and no longer lose this life. But since everything emerged from My love and My love never ceases, I will not rest until I can radiate My love through all created beings again and thus make them happy, for there is nothing insurmountable for love, there are no limits for love, it will work eternally and not reject anything from itself …. But it does not impose itself, it wants to find reciprocation, and this process has to take place in free will when the being walks across earth as a human being …. Then it must open itself of its own accord to My illumination of love, and then it will have eternally overcome death, then it will have awakened to spiritual life, and then I will have achieved My aim, which I set for Myself when the act of creation of the spiritual beings took place …. My love will always and forever be effective, it will always and forever bestow happiness, and you will never need to do without My love which once came forth from Me …. You only have to shape yourselves in such a way that you will be able to feel My love …. You must make the most of earthly life by acquiring spiritual life, and you will be eternally unspeakably happy …._>Amen

True bearers of light …. Deceptive lights ….
B.D. 7888 from May 8th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
You will only ever be given light so as not to be drawn into darkness again, for My adversary tries to prevent you from finding the light. I, however, have promised you an abundance of blessings during the last days to prevent you from weakening and falling prey to his deceitful games. For he works in the disguise of an angel …. He ignites deceptive lights which do not shine but blind the eyes of those who do not recognise him. However, in your struggle of resistance against him you often use the wrong means by closing your eyes instead of striving for the true light which flows to you as an obvious gift of grace …. you do not hold fast to My Word, the visible emanation of My love, which you can truly successfully use to oppose My enemy, for he cannot abide My light and takes flight …. My love proclaims love, and love in turn awakens the spirit to life. And thus you can always be certain that the spiritual information will concur wherever true love prevails …. where My spirit can express itself …. But then you will discover contradictions …. False prophets will cross your path. They all want to proclaim My Word and you will not be able to find complete harmony …. taking you aback and making you question the working of the spirit in some of them ….
And then My adversary will have already won his game, for the thoughts become confused, people lose their spiritual certainty, they no longer live in unison but in opposition …. Thus the light grows darker, that is, My Word from above will no longer be recognised, it will be neglected for the sake of untruth which, under cover of piety, is far more acceptable and agreeable to people who do not seriously scrutinise it. And then, again, it depends on the person’s degree of love whether he will set himself free from error, whether he will recognise it and voluntarily turn to the truth. The light shines in the darkness but it should not be concealed, it must be able to shine forth brightly which always depends on the will of the individual. And truly brightly shining light emanates from Me, from the Eternal Light. But I have only few bearers of light, people who are so permeated by their desire for truth that they are able to serve Me as vessels into which the truth can flow …. people who then will also pass on the light, who will not tire of proclaiming the truth but who will also notice where error has crept in and try to expose it, so that their fellow human beings, too, will be able to enjoy the brightly shining light which alone can give them truth ….
I want the light to be spread, I want My Word to be brought to people and I will bless those who voluntarily render this service to Me by letting Me speak to them and then spread My Word throughout the world …. and all those who thus want to serve Me will also receive the same Word from Me and stand up for it …. They will also recognise where My adversary is at work who tries to cause confusion amongst My Own in the same way …. who wants to extinguish the light from Me and diminish its radiance for darkness to set in again. And evidence of the truth will be provided too. All I ask is that you humans believe in My Words from above, which time and again can be recognised as My Word by people of good will …. And keep My Word …. If it brings you light, if it clarifies what made you question until now, if it shows your God’s love, wisdom and might and you feel addressed by Me as your Father then you will also know that I speak to you Myself, and then you should believe unreservedly, for then I convey pure truth to you and this such that everyone can understand, that no one needs to speculate on the meaning of My Words ….
I speak clearly and simply to you humans so that you will truly receive light, so that the darkness of spirit will disappear, for I Myself Am the light of eternity. And since I love My living creations I also want to bring them the light which they had once voluntarily renounced but which irrevocably has to shine for you again if you want to find (and travel) the right path to Me into your Father’s house. Light can only come forth from Me, the Eternal Light. You should believe that your Father conveys the light to you Himself because you are in urgent need of it and because there is not much time left …. But you also have to willingly accept the light, you have to willingly listen to the bearers of light, you should know that they are enlightened themselves and thus also able to give you complete clarification …. And all of you will truly find the path to Me when bearers of light lead the way and you readily follow them ….
Amen

Keeping the truth pure ….
B.D. 7889 from May 10th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
I need fighters who stand up for the pure truth …. And this prompts Me to call out to you again and again: Let My word from above suffice as pure truth and don’t look for it elsewhere …. unless it is also from Me, but then there is no contradiction whatsoever. And anyone who receives the truth directly from Me should stand up for it and not let himself be distracted by any objections, only then can it be possible for it to spread and shine like a light into the darkness of night which is spread across the earth. And again and again I instruct you, My bearers of light, to keep watch over the spiritual knowledge you receive directly from Me …. Only then will you serve Me in the right way, for you don’t know how My adversary works in order to take action against the light which shines down from above to earth, because people will no longer find their way out of the night unless a light is kindled for them which illuminates the paths they should take. Do not believe every spirit …. again and again I have to tell you this, but I also have to leave the assessment to you Myself, yet your spirit will instruct you correctly, it will cause you to reject or accept it if only you give it the opportunity to be able to express itself …. The truth shall be kept pure …. it shall not be mixed with foreign spiritual knowledge, it shall be recognized and valued as My divine gift of grace. And anyone who receives it and recognizes it as the ‘voice of the father’ will not allow anything else to arise besides it, because it is able to give him everything, because the soul feels satiated and no longer desires any other food …. But you humans will not be satisfied with this food if you let yourselves be fed elsewhere as well. Yet your souls will not be able to feel the strength which flows to them through the bread of heaven …. through the word which is conveyed to you as the working of My spirit …. Accept this word and give no room to any other spiritual good in your heart if you want to walk in truth, in light …. if you want to enjoy My presence, for I Myself am in the word with everyone who accepts Me …. I Myself speak to every person’s soul who longs for the pure truth. And anyone who lets Me Myself speak to him also recognizes My adversary’s activity and keeps away from him, he repels him and cannot be drawn into darkness again …. desire for light protects him from it, and he recognizes every shadow which wants to darken the light and steps out of it. And truly, it will always be My blessing with My light bearers …. I will reward their zeal with which they seek to keep the ‘divine truth’ pure. For I have given them the task to protect it, and thus they will also act in My will if they separate themselves from those whose spiritual knowledge they are unable to recognize as pure truth. For they feel responsible for the purification of what I Myself have imparted to them through the spirit, they want to be of service to Me, and they convincingly spread their opinion because they are in My service …._>Amen

The final completion is the "fulfilment of the law" ….
B.D. 7890 from May 11th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
And this is the fulfilment of My law, that you return to Me forever …. For My law fulfils all beings which remain in divine order, which have completed their self-formation into love and now create and work out of this love because they are now powerful and wise, because they have become My image in free will …. On the other hand, it is a state of imperfection if the being once perfectly created by Me moves outside My eternal order, for then it lacks love, which is the fundamental principle of the eternal order, and without love it also lacks light and strength …. it cannot and will not be active according to My will …. thus it does not fulfil the law. But then it is also distant from Me and wretched. When the being left Me in all freedom of will, when it turned away from Me, it violated My law of eternal order but nevertheless remained My living creation which My love had brought into being …. And this love of Mine also draws the being back to Me one day, because this is also a law in itself, that the strength of love always radiates back to its place of origin …. only the duration of this process differs depending on the being’s will. But it is certain that one day it will return to Me, and then ‘the law will have been fulfilled’ ….. Everything that happens in the meantime in the spiritual and earthly kingdom can be counted as part of the process of return, which takes place continuously and produces the most varied results …. For My radiation of love constantly touches all beings which are part of this process, yet they are received and evaluated differently again depending on the will or resistance of what once voluntarily distanced itself from Me. But it will be touched by My illumination of love, nothing will be left to itself because it would pass away without My illumination of love and this is completely impossible, for nothing can pass away that started in Me and My love. Hence the being can indeed come to a standstill if it persists in its resistance against Me …. but the process of return will never be delayed on My part, for My emanated strength of love will not remain without effect, because again and again it touches the imperfect spiritual essence which is bound in works of creation of the most diverse kind and also always guarantees spiritual ascent, because this bound spiritual essence cannot offer resistance, because it develops upwards through service in a state of compulsion. Hence it also fulfils the law, albeit in a bound state, and thereby matures so that it can reach the stage of its development where it must now voluntarily allow itself to be illuminated by Me and My love …. where the fulfilment of the law solely depends on its will. Hence it then has to re-enter My eternal order, it has to develop love within itself, it has to accomplish the complete transformation into love and then voluntarily rejoin Me by accepting its original nature again and proving that it has completed the process of return by creating and working next to Me in light and strength as My child. It can achieve this last perfection on earth, but then I will also have reached the last aim which I set for Myself when I created all beings. Then the law will be fulfilled, for since I Myself am a supremely perfect being, perfection is the highest law to which the being must subordinate itself which, as My child, shall now work in supreme bliss …. And this law will remain in existence for all eternity, for it is only ever the expression of My perfection, it is founded in My nature …. It is the law of love in which all beingness must move in order to be perfect and truly blissful …. And every being which has love within itself is in My eternal order, it is in most intimate union with Me, it has assimilated itself to My fundamental being, it has become perfect as its father in heaven is perfect and therefore eternally returned to Me, from Whom it originated as a created being and which has now reached the highest degree of perfection in free will …._>Amen

Keeping the life source pure ….
B.D. 7891 from May 12th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
You will always be allowed to draw from My spring, you will never need to fear that this spring will run dry as long as you yourselves are willing for the living water to flow towards you from it. For I Myself have opened it so that you can refresh and strengthen yourselves from it, I Myself have opened the spring for you which supplies your soul with nourishment it urgently needs in order to mature on this earth. I Myself chose the vessel into which My spirit can pour, which therefore also had to be prepared as it is a prerequisite for the influx of spiritual good. For I want to convey My word to earth, which is the right nourishment for your soul …. Yet just as the body requires daily nourishment in order to survive and fulfil its earthly task, the soul must also be provided with spiritual nourishment, otherwise its path across earth will be fruitless and it will not be able to mature in order to enter the kingdom of light. Spiritual knowledge is indeed brought to you humans on earth but it is no longer received at the source, and thus the water of life, the word of God, has not remained pure; therefore it has also lost its healing power, it has no effect on the soul, for the human being no longer correctly recognizes God’s will, he does not know his earthly task and his aim …. He receives nourishment which gives little strength to the soul, and the human being himself acquires little strength because he is lukewarm in his activity of love, because selfish love is too strong and he is not properly instructed about his actual purpose of earthly life. And that is why I repeatedly convey My pure word to earth which informs you. I open a spring from which the living water flows out again, which is full of healing power as long as it is received at the spring itself …. Thus I address people Myself, and you truly must heal from My word as soon as you listen to it and live it out, as soon as you fulfil My will, which I Myself inform you of through My word. And I will never close such a source …. But you yourselves must also keep it pure, you must prevent it from becoming polluted and that impure substances can mix with the water of life which reduce or even cancel its healing power …. I make it My task for you humans yourselves to ensure that purity is maintained, that you don’t accept foreign spiritual knowledge and add it to the spiritual knowledge which sounds to you from above, which I convey to you through the voice of the spirit …. I truly only have the will to provide you with good nourishment for your souls, and I also know what serves them to mature …. I know what you need and I also give it to you. You don’t need what I don’t send to you, but neither should you take it from your fellow human beings who represent it to you as truth …. For I Myself distribute the truth according to My love and My wisdom. But I leave you free to decide whether to accept it as ‘truth’ or not, for even truth should not force you; the recognition of it requires your free will. But anyone who accepts it also recognizes when he is fed error by human beings and rejects it. And therefore the necessary power of judgement will always be present where I Myself have tapped a spring so that the water of life will remain pure and be protected from harmful additions …. My adversary’s activity will always be aimed at weakening the pure truth, and he resorts to the most shameful means in order to achieve this …. But the strength of My word is enough that he will be recognized and repelled. And the vessels which I Myself have chosen to receive My flow of spirit will also be protected by Me, for they will always be faithful servants to Me or I would not be able to convey My pure word to them. For I recognize their will, I know about their love for truth and their willingness to carry My word into the world …. Therefore I can pour out an extraordinary flow of grace because I know how it will be utilized by those who receive it. And this also ensures My protection for them, for the end time requires the truth to be conveyed to people, and I will bless everyone who thus serves Me in this end time by accepting light from My hands and carrying this light out into the darkness of night in which people find themselves as long as they lack the truth …._>Amen

Submitting one's will to God's will ….
B.D. 7892 from May 13th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
I require your complete submission to My will. For as soon as you become completely absorbed in My will, you will not be able to think and feel any differently than My will intends, and then you will live in such as way that pleases Me. Thus you must give yourselves to Me, you must accept everything from Me as inflicted upon you or bestowed upon you, you must recognise My hand in everything you experience and know that everything has its meaning and purpose, that everything belongs to your path of destiny which aims to achieve your maturity and is based on My love and wisdom. Then you will no longer grumble and complain, you will humbly give in and allow yourselves to be guided like a child by the Father Who cannot handle you in any other way than good and loving and to Whom you can therefore also entrust yourselves in every adversity of body and soul. In the past your will turned away from Me …. if you now voluntarily submit your will to Mine again, your return will have been accomplished and you will only need to shape yourselves in earthly life such that your union with Me can take place, and this necessitates a heart full of love uniting itself with the Eternal Love in order to complete the final return as a child to the Father. However, submitting your will to Mine also guarantees every conceivable help on My part to achieve this unification with Me, because I Myself very much want you, My living creations, to return to Me as children to your Father. And since I let everything …. the whole of Creation …. arise for the sake of this return, I will always be willing to further this …. thus I will respond to your every expression of will, and this truly in a richly blessed way, if it applies to Me. Then you will also always recognise My will in yourselves, you will do what is helpful for your soul; you will work at improving yourselves and avoid all sinful longings, you will fight all temptations by the enemy of your soul and prevail, because your heartfelt devotion to Me will provide you with strength from Me. Then your life on earth will truly not be a waste of time, because you will recognise its meaning and purpose and thus fulfil your task on earth of attaining spiritual maturity. Nevertheless, you will have to struggle until the end of your life on earth, because My adversary will not give up on you so easily, since he will still believe that he can win you back, and thus he will not stop harassing you …. However, a will which is inclined towards Me also guarantees you influx of strength, for I will not let My child fall into My adversary’s hands again once it has turned away from him and taken refuge in Me because it had recognised Me as its God and Father of eternity. Therefore you need not be afraid that I might ever abandon you, don’t be scared of the moments of weakness you will experience time and again …. I Myself watch over you and protect you from regressing into the abyss, I will not allow the adversary to gain power over you, I will always walk by your side, even if you don’t see Me …. in order to protect you and to safeguard you from all harm which threatens you from My adversary’s side. He cannot hurt you anymore as soon as you have found your way back to Me, which is demonstrated by your will being inclined towards Me …. For then your earthly life will only be spiritually oriented, you will deliberately detach yourselves from that which belongs to My adversary, even if you are still living within the field of your earthly duties and have to prove yourselves in them …. From then on you will receive all your strength from Me which will tie you to Me ever more firmly …. And because you will have returned to Me voluntarily and he will not have been able to force your will, My adversary will have lost his claim on you. This is why no-one can go astray if he believes in Me and strives towards Me in thought or through kind-hearted activity, which always presupposes the will for Me and testifies to the passed test of will on earth …. Complete dedication to Me also includes submission to My will, and then you will belong to Me and I will never ever let go of you ….
Amen

Perfection means conformity to divine will ….
B.D. 7893 from May 14th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
A living faith can truly move mountains …. You would be able to be in command over all the elements of nature if you had this living faith …. You would be able to transmit your will unto people and animals if in living faith you wanted to relieve their earthly distress …. Then you would always work with My strength, for in living faith you are most sincerely united with Me and able to use My strength without limitation. But what does it mean to possess a living faith? …. To possess such a high degree of love it means that you are fully enlightened, that you know of all correlations and thus also know of your past nature, when you came forth from Me in an exceedingly powerful and perceptive state …. The knowledge you possess now …. having become love yourselves …. will not let you doubt anything because you also correctly recognise Me and My nature, which is love, wisdom and might in itself …. And since you once were created in My image you also realise that the same power is inherent in you when you are united with Me, or, because you are united with Me …. But then you will also use your power according to your inner realisation. You will never attempt to accomplish something that would not be in line with My will, for then your will is the same as Mine because you will have reached the light, the correct knowledge …. It is not possible to have a living faith without love …. Love, however, also ensures insight into My eternal plan of Salvation …. Love guarantees that you think and act correctly, that your will is in line with Mine, that you will not work against My eternal plan of Salvation if you have the right kind of realisation, if you live in the light of truth. For although you will possess a living faith which enables you to accomplish everything you will nevertheless not use your inherent strength of faith to work contrary to My love and wisdom …. for your will, which has conformed to Mine, prevents you from doing this, so that every deed of love for your neighbour accomplished by your living faith will also correspond to My love if it serves his salvation of soul.
For My goal is and will remain that My living creations shall attain beatitude, the maturing of souls, the return of the once fallen spiritual beings to Me. And My love and wisdom will only ever manifest itself according to this goal. And since I have always known people’s will My eternal plan of Salvation is based on it, and it cannot be revoked by people who still lack profound realisation …. If you want to be powerful on Earth and accomplish great things you must ignite the love within yourselves into a bright fire …. But this fire of love radiates brightest light, and in this light you will recognise Me and My nature, which is love, wisdom and might …. In that case, however, you will know about My goal and My extraordinarily wise plan of love …. And then it will truly not occur to you to work in opposition to this plan …. You would only ever try to influence your fellow human beings with love, so that they, too, will shape themselves to love, because you recognise that love is the only path to the pinnacle, to Me and to eternal life …. A living faith is the sign of a soul’s highly advanced maturity, of a high degree of love, which gives life to this faith …. And with such faith you truly can also move mountains …. But you will always act as one with Me because your love has closely united you with Me. And then you also know My will, you feel it in your heart and act accordingly. But this will can never be directed in opposition to My love and wisdom …. For no wrong will can take effect in you either, then you, too, shall only think and want as I do, then for you, too, only the spiritual being’s salvation will be important and you will want to help the souls which still linger in darkness. Earthly longings, however, will be alien to you and never prompt you into using the strength of faith ….
Amen

Justification of the supply of the divine word ….
B.D. 7894 from May 18th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
When I send My word down to earth then My greater than great love expresses itself in an obvious way because I know that you are in profound spiritual adversity and want to help you to get out of this adversity. I want to give you strength in such a way that everyone can make use of it who listens to Me when I speak to him directly or through My messengers. I know that you are weak and that you walk your earthly path in vain without the supply of strength, and therefore it is My constant concern to supply you with strength, and this happens through My word which sounds to you from above. For as soon as you hear My word, as soon as you open yourselves to My word from above, the connection with Me is established and My flow of strength can overflow into you and enable you to ascend. For I have blessed My word with My strength …. and thus it must have a beneficial effect on your soul, it must serve it to mature, it must be spiritual nourishment for it which helps it to attain eternal life. I was able to speak to all of you in the beginning, you all heard My word within yourselves, you were in most intimate contact with Me and My love constantly radiated into you, and we had a lively spiritual exchange through the word which emanated from Me and resounded in you and which you were also able to return and were therefore immeasurably happy. You gave up the ability to hear My word in you when you voluntarily turned away from Me …. And yet, I seek to establish the bond with you again and again but need your free will to do so …. And blessed is he who musters this free will, who allows himself to be addressed by Me, who makes use of My great grace that I dignify him with an address, even though he has not yet finally returned to Me …. But he has the will and I also comply with it by revealing Myself to him …. Yet you all cannot grasp the value of this gift of grace, for your God and creator, your father of eternity, inclines Himself towards you humans who once became sinful and voluntarily distanced yourselves from Him …. My love is so great that it applies to you and will apply to you for all eternity. And it is this love which speaks to you again and again because it knows you are in need. For you are still far away from Me, even though you are in the last stage on this earth, even though you live on earth as a human being and thus have taken your last external form before you enter the spiritual kingdom again …. But you don’t take your task on this earth seriously enough, you do nothing or too little to achieve your perfection on earth, you don’t live in love which would give you strength. And therefore I come to you in the word to teach and stimulate you; and I convey the strength to you to accomplish your transformation into love …. I bestow upon you grace upon grace because I Myself long for your return, because I want your earthly progress to be successful and you to detach yourselves from the world and its attractions …. And that is why I speak to you again and again …. (18.5.1961) and what I now tell you is pure truth, for it comes from the source of truth …. again and again you humans will distort My pure word and then the word offered to you will also have lost its strength. But without strength you cannot mature, without strength you cannot cover the path of ascent, without the supply of strength you cannot become blissfully happy. And since you are weakened beings as long as you live on earth My love is always willing to help you if you want to accept it. And My direct address is the surest help because it requires the bond with Me and every bond with Me also ensures the overflow of strength, which therefore now happens through My word. You are not even aware of what it means to be directly fed by your father with strength …. You cannot measure My infinite love, which leans towards you with every direct address …. and which also guides My messengers the right way to carry the strength to people which they need to ascend to Me. But a loving father knows about all His children’s needs and does not leave them without help. And thus I also know where you are lacking, I know about your weaknesses and faults, I know about your will …. And as soon as it turns towards Me, My love will never let you go …. It will surely wrest you from the enemy, for you are Mine and will remain so forever, only your free will has to strive towards Me. And therefore I prove Myself and My presence to you humans when I address you, so that it will be easy for you to take the path back to Me, so that your will will be stimulated and you turn your eyes upwards to where your true home is …. For you are in a foreign land and you shall return home to Me, your father, Who desires your return, so that you will now be united with Me and eternally blissful …._>Amen

Presence of God …. preparing for the temple of God ….
B.D. 7895 from May 19th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
I want to take abode in your hearts …. I want to be present to you at all times, I want you to desire My presence and therefore also prepare yourselves as a temple in which I can dwell …. And this means that you free yourselves from all impure desires, from all faults and weaknesses, that you shape yourselves into love, because love adorns your heart and thus this now becomes a vessel which can now receive My love and My spirit …. which is and remains a dwelling place for Me Myself, and you will now also experience My presence …. by addressing you Myself and being in constant intimate contact with you. If I can be present to you then you have truly passed your test of earthly life, then you have returned to Me again, from Whom you once voluntarily distanced yourselves …. If I can be present to you, then all your thoughts and aspirations will only be spiritually directed, then you will often dwell with Me in thought, you will hold a dialogue with Me, you will never feel alone again but always be aware of your father’s presence and thereby feel inner peace and bliss already on earth, For then earthly burdens and worries will no longer weigh you down, because you hand everything over to Me and are certain that I will take care of everything for you, Who is present to you, Who dwells in you and will truly also faithfully take care of you. Let Me take abode with you and prepare yourselves in such a way that you will show your love to your father from eternity …. Make your heart a temple of God …. shape yourselves into love, because eternal love can only take abode where love is …. because I can only be in My primal element and because I long for your love. But then nothing will be able to separate us anymore, then the child will be united with its father and then it will be allowed to hear Him at all times, it will be able to communicate with the father as it once did when I revealed Myself to My living creations in the word, when they constantly received My emanations and were indescribably happy. And your degree of love during earthly life will also determine the degree of bliss My presence can trigger in you. And when My word resounds in you and you receive the evidence of My presence then this shall stimulate you into ever deeper love, for you receive a delectable gift from the father within you which, again, is only love and shall awaken or deepen love …. And then you shall also prove your love to Me …. You should carry My teaching of love into the world, you should try to encourage your fellow human beings to live a life of love, you should also want to help them to become a temple of God …. You should also awaken in them the desire for My presence and stimulate them to be lovingly active on earth. And you will truly perform works of love which are pleasing to Me …. For I want to take abode in all people, I want to be able to speak to everyone Myself, because then I would have achieved My aim that you humans have changed yourselves into love, that you can now also unite with Me and become blissfully happy …._>Amen

There is no eternal death ….
B.D. 7896 from May 20th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
When I speak to you through the voice of the spirit then you can also be certain that you receive the pure truth, and you need not worry about spreading error into the world. But the working of My spirit is not always permitted, and then misguided teachings will also be represented as divine truth, and these will cause you to worry about the truth of the word you received. Yet you need not fear misguidance on My part, and you will always enjoy My protection as long as you want to be of service to Me and sincerely endeavour to only fulfil My will. It is a purely spiritual process which always takes place in you when the spiritual spark in you seeks contact with the eternal father-spirit, and the instruction you now receive from within through Me can only be of spiritual content again, for I want to enlighten you about things which are only significant for your soul. And therefore you will already recognize by the content of the good you receive whether the spirit in you or the intellect was active …. That the intellect can err is possible …. But My spirit does not err. Therefore you can pass on without hesitation what My love offers you through the transmission of My word, and you need not doubt or fear to represent an untruth yourselves …. It is coming to an end …. And this is the reason why I repeatedly convey the pure truth to earth, for much error has entered the teaching material and again and again I try to correct this error. I enlighten you in the most understandable and simple way about My plan of salvation from eternity …. What this means will only become clear to you when you dwell in the kingdom of light where you can see everything and are in fullest realization. But as far as it can be made comprehensible to you, the knowledge of it comes to you in order to give you only a small light why you stay on earth. I reveal Myself so that you receive information about My being… For I want to win your love, and therefore you should also know the being to Whom you should give your love …. And you shall know that I am Love …. You shall gain faith in it and never lose this faith again …. For I court your love, because you came forth from My love …. And thus I want to tell you one thing: What somehow gives cause to doubt My love is error …. Love is My fundamental being, and love never ends …. And the beings which emerged from My love never lose My love, even if they once voluntarily distanced themselves from Me …. My love follows them and does not rest until these beings have returned to Me again …. Thus they cannot be lost forever …. For if I were to relinquish just one being it would also mean that I had abandoned it to My adversary. And this cannot and will not happen eternally. The fact that the time of your distance from Me cannot be called a state of ‘life’ goes without saying, because the flow of strength of love, to which the being closes itself in resistance, is an essential part of life …. Thus it is then in a state of death …. But even this will not last forever because I will not rest until everything has come to life and I will certainly reach this aim one day. There is no eternal separation from Me, for My love is so strong that it will one day break the hardest resistance …. but not by coercion, because love does not use coercion …. But its strength is effective, and in the long run no being can resist the divine strength of love. You humans must believe in My love, which is infinitely profound, which can never diminish and which is the fundamental basis of all being …. But where would My love be if only one being were abandoned to ruin and eternally doomed to death? If this teaching is brought to you then reject it, for it does not correspond to the truth, it was brought to you by My adversary who tries to slip in wherever he can in order to invalidate the truth, in order to portray Me as an unmerciful God, in order to make people believe in eternal damnation. Even My adversary will return to Me one day because he will not be able to resist the strength of love forever …. And if this is certain, then no being can ever fall prey to eternal death which was torn into the abyss by My adversary and which would therefore be hopelessly lost if My love could not also redeem it from hell …. There is no eternal death …. let it be said to you, otherwise you doubt My love which truly achieves everything because it is a ‘divine strength’ which nothing can resist forever. And you can believe that My spirit teaches you correctly, for this is why I impart this knowledge to you, because you allow yourselves to be impressed by misguided teachings …. because it is the time of the end and because you should know the pure truth, so that you give all your love to the one Who called you into life and Who longs for your return because He loves you …._>Amen

Whitsun experience ….
B.D. 7897 from May 21st 1961, taken from Book No. 82
The event My disciples experienced at Whitsun can repeat itself with everyone of you, for I have promised My spirit to all people with the Words ‘I will send you the Comforter, the Spirit of truth ….’. It was not merely a unique experience only intended for My disciples, instead, My spirit flows time and again to those people who make heartfelt contact with Me and appeal to My spiritual strength. And, in fact, everyone can feel the strength of the spirit within himself, as his thinking will become enlightened, everything that was previously incomprehensible will be understandable to him …. For My spirit grants clarity and light because it is a direct illumination from Me, Who is the Light of eternity.
Hence, the outpouring of the spirit upon My disciples was not a unique experience, instead, this process was taking place for the first time, since prior to My crucifixion it was not possible for a person who had not yet found redemption through the blood of Jesus Christ to be imbued by My spirit …. As long as people were still afflicted by the original sin they were unable to establish this heartfelt bond with Me; the guilt of the beings’ apostasy from Me stood between Myself and each and every person, and it was impossible for My spirit to permeate a soul encumbered by sin.
Once the act of Salvation had been accomplished the path of return to Me was also open for every person …. From then on it was possible for every soul to so shape itself through love that the awakening of the spirit into life took place, so that the spiritual spark in the person strove towards the eternal Father-Spirit and the person’s heartfelt bond with Me enabled Me to pour My strength into him …. so that My spirit filled His soul and brightly enlightened him, teaching him from within in all truth …. so that the divine abilities, which laid dormant or buried within as a result of his past original sin, emerged again …. so that all these abilities became extraordinarily dominant and testified to his unity with Me …. so that they thus proved the divine nature of the one who had entered into unity with Me ….
Then the disciples were able to speak, for they were filled by My spirit; they were able to perform miracles, heal the sick and also have an insight into the spiritual kingdom …. Then they were true apostles of My Gospel for they recognised the truth within themselves, they were guided and impelled by My spirit to speak according to My will. They were permeated by the strength of the spirit, just as I previously promised that I will remain with My Own until the end of the world …. And this promise did not just apply to My disciples but to all people …. which this promise self-evidently shows …. I always wanted to please people, I always wanted to pour out My spirit, always convey the truth to them, which was only possible through My spirit …. Yet how rarely has My Word been understood, how rarely is this promise taken notice of, and therefore the outpouring of My spirit not aspired to either, even though everyone would be able to experience it ….
But I also linked it to the condition that you should believe in Me and keep My commandments …. for the ‘outpouring of the spirit’ is like a direct ‘revelation’. And I can only reveal Myself to someone who lives in love, who thus awakens the indwelling spirit to life …. Do understand that My spirit will guide you into all truth …. that I, the Eternal Love, reveal Myself …. that I convey knowledge to you and thus educate you from within …. And in this way I also instructed My disciples. I gave them the ability to understand everything I had previously told them, and then, according to this understanding, to proclaim Me Myself and My act Salvation to their fellow human beings, for they should be informed of My will and the cause of their wretchedness, as well as the goal I had set for their life on earth. Thus, they needed to know everything themselves in order to truthfully instruct their fellow human beings ….
And at present I likewise fill My disciples with My spirit again and send them into the world, because people shall know My will once more and everything that lays ahead of them …. The Gospel of love shall be proclaimed to them anew by My servants who are imbued by My spirit so that they can carry out the task I have allocated to them …. For it is the time of the end and people ought to know the truth, which only I Myself can give to them through My spirit, which permeates those who are willing to serve Me, and who I send into the world again before the end has come ….
Amen

The Father speaks to His children ….
B.D. 7898 from May 22nd 1961, taken from Book No. 82
O, if only you would comply with My message, if only you would accept My Word and seriously consider it in your heart and live accordingly …. Then you would surely experience the strength of My Words, you would become clearly aware that your Father, Who loves His children and only wants the best for their future happiness, has spoken to you …. Time and again I tell you that only My deep love for you prompts Me to speak to you, and that My infinite love is the reason for everything you see around you, for everything you experience …. And thus I repeatedly give you evidence of My love for you but you fail to become aware of it …. You demand other evidence in order to accept that My revelations are true …. Everyone of you wants to be spoken to himself and yet I Am speaking to all of you when My Word sounds from above.
But consider this: you originated from Me as My ‘living creations’ …. and as My ‘children’ you shall return to Me again …. You will have to accomplish this transformation into ‘children’ yourselves. And it is up to you yourselves if and when you achieve it. If you seriously intend to reach the goal during your earthly existence then you will accomplish this change of your innermost being, you will establish a connection with Me in your heart, and thus you will also be able to hear Me speak to you in your heart and be happy. Then you are restoring the right kind of relationship as between a child and its Father by yourselves, and then the Father will also speak to His child, the child will be able to hear its Father’s voice within itself and no longer doubt that the Father Himself is speaking to His child …. thus, this maturity is required by a person to whom I would speak directly ….
But mere words cannot prove this close relationship, and you should not only believe that you have shaped yourselves into ‘children’ but should endeavour to become your Father’s true children. The purpose of My message from above is to encourage My living creations to conduct themselves in a manner which turns them into true children, who fulfil their Father’s every will and to whom I can also speak like a Father to His children. My Word from above informs you time and again of My boundless love for you. My love is so immense that I bestow you with the undeserved grace of hearing Me Myself although you have not yet achieved the degree of maturity to be worthy of it. But since My love towards you has not diminished it overlooks your faulty condition and grants you grace in abundance. And you humans should deem the receipt of My Word as one such grace, by which I inform you that My Being consists of love, wisdom and power …. And whoever accepts My Word also knows that he is forever pursued by My love, that it cares for and protects him, that it will not let him go astray, and that it wants to prepare eternal happiness for him ….
Therefore he needs no further evidence of My love because his heart can feel it as soon as it has voluntarily opened itself …. And then the person also knows that he is and will remain My child, because then he will constantly be aspiring to reach Me, because he reciprocates the love I give to him ….And subsequently he is closely united with Me …. But every formality is unfamiliar to him, his inner life is entirely spiritually orientated, the external life hardly ever affects him …. He will only emit love, and this is the sign of his soul’s maturity and not words and gestures which anyone can use even when the maturity of soul has not yet been achieved. For this reason you should never judge an external appearance either because it can conceal an inner life which you cannot see but which is known to Me at all times. Nor should you accept My Word with your intellect alone but accept it deep within your heart and it will work on and within you when you live in accordance with it and thus fulfil My will. Because the Word itself shall and will indeed convince you as soon as your will is turned towards Me, as soon as you sincerely aspire towards the Father, from Whom you once came forth ….
Amen

Order to the vineyard workers ….
B.D. 7899 from May 23rd 1961, taken from Book No. 82
It is truly not an easy office which My servants have to administer, for it imposes obligations on them which they cannot avoid if they want to be faithful servants to Me in My vineyard. They must always carry out My instructions, and I always demand readiness from them because it is often urgent work they are to perform. For according to their willingness and ability I have entrusted them with the ministry, and thus they must not be lukewarm and ignore My instructions …. And thus they shall scatter the seed which they receive abundantly from Me …. They shall prepare the ground for it: They shall supply the human hearts with the spiritual knowledge they have received from Me, so that it will sprout and bear fruit. Not everyone is able to receive My word directly from Me, which is truly the most delicious seed a human heart can receive …. Hence there are also only a few servants in My vineyard to whom I can entrust this good. But those who receive it from Me shall also spread it, they shall be diligently active and convey My word everywhere, for the time is only short and much fruit shall still ripen before the harvest comes …. For you humans are in the time of the end …. that is why My words are so urgent, and that is why I admonish you to be restlessly active, that is why I repeatedly instruct you to scatter the seed which I constantly supply to you …. I send you out into the world to proclaim the gospel to people again …. I know that I have assigned a responsible ministry to you, who want to serve Me, but I also know who is capable of it and who musters the will to be undauntedly active for Me. And My strength will also become apparent in these, for they will keep My word, they will be faithful servants to Me and do what I ask of them. And anyone who has to administer such an office can also always be certain that I Myself will stand by his side, that he will do nothing without My support and that I will always put the right thoughts into his heart so that he will act according to My will. And therefore it only requires full willingness to serve on his part that he is also able to carry out what is My will …. Then he will be an efficient labourer for Me in My vineyard, then he will constantly experience My blessing, My strength will flow through him and the work will be successful. Whoever wants to serve Me will also be accepted, for much work shall still be done before the end …. Many fields still lie fallow, that is, there are still many human hearts to which the word of God has to be conveyed, which therefore shall receive knowledge of Me and My love, to whom My word has to be revealed so that they will carry out the work on their souls, so that they will become suitable to enter the kingdom of light after their death …. There are many people who shall be led to believe in Me as their God and creator, Who wants to be their father …. there are many people who lack all knowledge about their purpose of life on earth …. These are all fields which lie fallow and which have been handed over to you, My servants, for cultivation. You shall supply them all with the seed which you receive directly from Me, and you shall ensure that it sprouts so that I can still reap a great harvest before the time is fulfilled. And so serve Me in all loyalty, listen to My instruction: Carry My word out into the world …. Pass it on to all those I lead you into the way …. do not tire of working for Me and My kingdom, give Me your will and all your love …. And I will truly fill you with strength to be active in My Will, I Myself will stand by your side and bless your work, for truly, you do not have much time left …._>Amen

Light …. Radiance …. Wisdom ….
B.D. 7900 from May 25th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
All those of you who want to work for Me, who want to participate in the redemption of the as yet enslaved souls, all those of you who want to serve Me during the last days before the end, listen to Me: The mission for which you voluntarily placed yourselves at My disposal is very important …. It requires much love and patience for your fellow human beings, it requires effort and perseverance and a helpful heart which recognises people’s hardship and would like to improve it …. And it requires great love for Me, because a person wanting to be of service to Me will only enter into My will if he totally hands himself over to Me and thereby also receives the strength to accomplish his mission. The goal is to convey to people the truth which can only come forth from Me and which is absolutely essential if the redemptive work is to be successful …. because the human being can only become aware of his own state when he receives the truth, because only then will he recognise the purpose of his life on earth and only the pure truth will enable him to gain a correct image of Me as his God and Creator, his Father of eternity. Humanity suffers great spiritual adversity, being kept in spiritual blindness by the prince of darkness they spend their earthly life in a lightless state, i.e. they don’t know the truth, they come to wrong conclusions and only regard life on earth as an end in itself …. There is such a pressing need for supplying the truth that I will bless every person who offers his service to Me, because I can only convey the truth through you to people who do not shape themselves in a way that they can receive it directly …. I need you to accept the truth from Me Myself and to carry it into the world …. However, only a few are capable of receiving the direct transfer of My Word which can claim to be truthful knowledge …. which provides people with clear understanding, with the knowledge they need in order to live an appropriate way of life that helps them to attain perfection on earth …. However, first they must be encouraged to live a life of love, because without love they will be unable to recognise the truth of subsequent knowledge …. Love comes first, and then love will also guarantee the understanding for all correlations, for My nature and My reign and activity …. This is why only a loving human being can accept this truth from Me …. I can only convey ‘truthful knowledge’ if the prerequisites have been met for receiving it directly …. But where this can take place, those of you who want to serve Me should congregate and accept the light which you shall then carry into the world …. Understand that it is truly light which is emanated by Me …. that it also contains radiance, that is, it will also be clear and understandable to those to whom you want to pass it on if only they are of good will …. Then I will also speak to these human hearts Myself through the Word you impart upon them and they will recognise it as My Word because it gives evidence of itself ….
Safeguard this Word from all impurities, do not mix it with human thoughts, emphasise it as My direct emanation of love and only ensure that it will be distributed …. For people’s spiritual state is such that only My direct address can still have an effect, that only the strength of My Word is still able to affect people’s hearts and lead to a change in their nature. After all, people also want to be allowed to use their intellect …. they also want to recognise wisdom when knowledge is presented to them as the divine Word …. They don’t want empty phrases but they also want to deal with the subject matter rationally, which is only possible if the pure truth from Me is presented to them …. For this reason I convey this knowledge to you humans, for this reason I inform you of My eternal plan of Salvation, this is why I try to clarify the meaning and purpose of earthly existence and to explain all correlations, so that you will be able to believe if you are of good will …. Hence I kindle a light in you Myself and only instruct you to serve Me as bearers of light by distributing this light and to keep fetching the knowledge from where I Myself send it to earth, where it is received by a tool which I recognised as being suitable for receiving the truth from Me so that it can subsequently emanate the light …. so that it will disperse the darkness the prince of darkness has spread across people. And by its bright and radiant shine you will also be able to infer the source of the light, for that which is emanated by the ‘Eternal Light’ Itself must also disseminate illumination and be recognisable as divine emanation. It must be profound divine wisdom, a knowledge which testifies to My love, wisdom and power and which comprehensibly informs you about My reign and activity so that you humans can convincingly speak of ‘divine truth’. And if you, My servants, want to do redemptive work then you should spread this divine truth, you should pass it on to your fellow human beings, you should impart the light upon others and thereby dispel the night which is no-one’s friend …. You should help to improve people’s spiritual state, to ensure that they can all be affected by the strength of My Word, which will truly not remain ineffective.
Amen

The Head of the house takes care of all worries ….
B.D. 7901 from May 26th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
Just entrust yourselves unto Me and My guidance, and whatever you do or don’t do will be right before Me …. you will take the paths on which you can successfully work for Me and My kingdom …. You will serve Me according to My will, for then I will always be able to take effect in and through you. It only requires your dedication to Me and your earthly path will not be a standstill, it will lead to the goal. And I still have much work for you before the end arrives …. I still want to bring salvation to many people in their spiritual adversity and need you for this, because it is easier for you to approach those who have not found the path to Me yet. And because I need you, I will also take care that you can work for Me in peace …. I will shape your earthly fate such that it will be endurable for you, that you can use all your strength for Me and thus be of service to Me according to My will. For your total dedication to Me will also allow Me to look after you and to guide you, so that you can accomplish the work for Me, so that you will be impelled from within to work according to My will. So be content with My assurance that I will take care of your every worry …. The Head of the house will have the wellbeing of His loyal servants at heart …. But the Father will also faithfully watch over His children and take loving care of them …. And you should know that everything is arranged according to the mission you freely accepted, for this mission is extremely important and significant, since much redemptive work will still have to be done before the end …. by offering your fellow human beings My Word on My behalf, because I cannot speak to them Myself as yet and thus it has to happen though you, so that they will not go astray …. For many people want to believe but cannot find the right spiritual knowledge which will lead them into a living faith …. Bringing them My Word and drawing their attention to a God and Creator, Who also wants to be their Father, is a truly grateful task which can have an impact for all eternity …. Even if it only saves one soul from repeating their progression through the works of creation …. the work in My vineyard will not have been in vain and will result in your spiritual as well as earthly blessings …. But because I can speak to you Myself, you are in possession of invaluable spiritual knowledge, spiritual knowledge which affects each willing soul, which can guide it into faith so that it will be saved forever …. And you may pass on this spiritual knowledge; you may repeatedly receive My gifts of grace anew and work with them …. You are in possession of delectable seed which you can disseminate, and you will truly serve Me as faithful servants if you fulfil My will and carry the Gospel throughout the world …. Therefore you can believe that I will prepare the paths you are meant to take …. You can believe that I will always grant you support, that you can come to Me as your Head of the house with even the smallest request and I will truly remove your every worry …. You can believe that I will take the worries upon Myself as long as you are of service to Me, as long as you take an interest in working for Me and My kingdom. Consequently, you should let go of all worries which still get you down in an earthly way, for I want you to recognise that you have a Father Who loves you …. that you are of service to a good Lord …. that I watch over you because you are of service to Me, and that I bless your work for Me and My kingdom ….
Amen

Vows not in the will of God ….
B.D. 7902 from May 27th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
What you want to achieve on earth you should achieve of your own free will but not feel induced to do so by coercion of any kind, for you should make a free decision of will and this alone determines your fate in eternity, your spiritual development, your spiritual maturity. And therefore you should not bind yourselves through a vow either, for then you will make your will unfree yourselves, and that does not correspond to My will. You will raise the objection that this vow was made by you of your own free will, but you should know that you are anticipating Me, that you are doing something for which you do not have My approval, which I would never give you either, precisely because of your freedom of will. You can do exactly the same thing you want to do even without having taken a vow, and then you will also be able to be certain of My blessing as soon as they are works of love …. But what good is a work which lacks love if you feel prompted to do such works by a spiritual compulsion? …. It will not take you one step further in your maturity of soul, and you will waste time which you could use better if you were free from any such obligation. You should not bind yourselves with a vow which I will never ever approve of, for every constraint kills, you render yourselves incapable of working with love …. because a constraint weighs down your soul and everything you do under this constraint cannot result in spiritual success. And that person who takes such a vow from you is also to be condemned, for he is controlled by My adversary, otherwise he would have to recognize the nonsensical, God-opposing nature which is expressed in a vow. You promise something and don’t know whether you will be able to keep it, whether you will not break yourselves with such a vow, because you have completely wrong ideas if you believe that such a promise is pleasing to Me. For this reason no person should be of faith to make himself My servant through a vow if this is taken from him by a fellow human being …. As soon as he offers himself to Me Myself for service in My vineyard, as soon as he hands himself over to Me that I may accept him, his free will has become active and I then use him according to My will, where and how I need him. But a person should never take a vow from his fellow human being, and a person should never promise something if he himself does not know whether he will be able to keep it ….. For then he will have relinquished his freedom of will, and his actions or omissions will be of no value, they will not be regarded as voluntary deeds in My eyes, as the individual’s free decision of will. A vow can be the occasion for an activity which is then only carried out mechanically and whose value is thereby reduced. And a vow can also stifle any love that cannot be forced, that must come from the heart and also develop freely …. And only that which is based on love is pleasing to Me. It lets the soul mature and promotes development. And anyone who has love within himself does not need a vow …. he is driven from within to do everything, and he will truly always act as it is My will, as it pleases Me and as it is beneficial for his soul’s salvation …._>Amen

Priesthood …. the right disciples ….
B.D. 7903 from May 28th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
I once sent My disciples out into the world; thus they were to proclaim My will, My gospel of love. And I instructed them during My life on earth, I Myself exemplified a life of love to them and thus enabled My disciples to be true proclaimers of My divine teaching of love. They were to present the urgency of a life of love to people and also make the effects of such understandable to them, and therefore the disciples also had to be able to prove in themselves what they proclaimed to their fellow human beings about it: They had to possess unusual strength and knowledge themselves so that people would recognize the truth of My teaching and then strive to attain perfection themselves. And the first disciples also had unusual strength and knowledge because My spirit was able to fill them, for they had been redeemed through My sacrificial death on the cross, and through their love they were in intimate contact with Me …. It will now also be understandable to you that only those can be called My true disciples and followers of those disciples who also provide the evidence of being filled by My spirit, who also draw unusual strength from Me through a life of love and most intimate contact with Me and have truthful knowledge at their disposal which they received from Me Myself …. It will be understandable to you that not everyone can call himself a follower of My disciples who was given an office by people which only I can bestow, because I know every person’s state of maturity and will and therefore also who I choose for such an office …. The ‘priesthood’ cannot be conferred by people, it is an office which I alone have to decide upon, because people are unable to judge the inner maturity and will of the person they appoint to such an office …. And thus you will often find true ‘priests’, i.e. servants of God, where you don’t suspect them, and you will be allowed to refuse your recognition to those who have made themselves into such, for My calling is part of it which is also to be recognized as such. The individual’s inner life is decisive for the relationship a person has with Me. And the contract is concluded solely between Me and the person, and this truly does not require a third party who would have to determine where I alone make the choice as to whom I send out into the world as My true disciple in order to proclaim the gospel to fellow human beings. If the abilities which allow My spirit to work are not present, then the human being will not be able to carry out proper missionary work either, then he will not be a suitable tool for Me, he will not be able to pretend to be My disciple, and then his work will also be unsuccessful, even though he believes that he is doing vineyard work. At the time of My life on earth I chose My disciples Myself, and I still do so now, but a servant called by Me, who has reached a high degree of maturity, will also be able to judge what task he now has to accomplish, and he will then willingly comply with it because I Myself work through and with him and he now also has unusual strength and knowledge at his disposal which impels him to tirelessly work in My vineyard. And these disciples of Mine will preach love and live out love …. They will stand in right knowledge, they will stand up for Me and My name before all the world …. Their position in the world will be different from what you humans expect …. for they will be active for Me in secret but not fear any power they are subject to, for they acknowledge Me as their lord Whose instructions they comply with …. they serve Me of their own free will and are faithful servants to Me in the last days before the end …. They do not seek external honours and recognition, they do not seek rank and dignity, but they also do not shy away from those who stand in rank and dignity and want to be recognized as successors of the apostles, as successors of those disciples whom I once sent out into the world with the command: “Go and teach all nations ….” For My right disciples know their mission, and they faithfully seek to administer the office into which I have appointed them …. And My right disciples will also not shy away in the last days before the end, when the battle of faith will break out; then they will confess Me and My name before all the world, they will bear witness to Me and stand up for Me and My kingdom with strength of faith …._>Amen

Self-salvation? …. Jesus‘ work of redemption ….
B.D. 7904 from May 29th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
No man can redeem himself, no man can become blessed by his own strength …. Consider that you are powerless when you enter the earth as a human being …. You are indeed given the vitality for your existence as a human being with which you can create and work according to your will. But in order to become blissfully happy you must be in possession of spiritual strength, and this is lacking in you who are still part of My adversary, who dragged you down into the abyss and, due to your past apostasy, rejected My strength of love, thus you became completely powerless. You were bound by My adversary and he did not let you go. Although I had already released you from his bondage when you were …. bound by Me.… through the creations of earth in order to slowly ascend again. But during your human existence he has control over you again insofar as he can influence your will, for you are still his share until you voluntarily approach Me. But for this you need spiritual strength which you do not yet possess. But the purpose of your earthly life is your release from him, the redemption from his control, from the fetters he had placed around you …. And because you therefore don’t possess the strength to do so, you cannot redeem yourselves …. You need help, which only one can provide: Jesus Christ, the redeemer of the world …. In Him I Myself came to earth in order to accomplish the act of salvation for you, in order to redeem you from My adversary through My blood …. in order to acquire the strength for you which you need and which will be supplied to you if you acknowledge Me as the divine redeemer, if you want to avail yourselves of the blessings of the act of salvation. again and again I try to make the significance of the act of salvation clear to you; I try to make it understandable to you humans why you have to acknowledge Jesus Christ and His act of salvation and that it is not possible for you to become free from My adversary’s power without Him, the divine redeemer …. that it is not possible for you to redeem yourselves.… that you need Me in order to become blissfully happy. You are unable to do so by your own strength, for you first have to acquire it, and therefore you have to muster the serious will to release yourselves from My adversary’s power, and this will is weakened by your past apostasy from Me because you lack love …. You rejected the divine strength of love, you are without love yourselves, and love is the strength which would enable you …. Yet as long as you still belong to My adversary he will do everything to prevent you from working with love, and you do not have the strength to resist him …. You have to request strength from Jesus Christ and therefore also acknowledge Him as the one Who alone can redeem you from the enemy’s power …. But then your redemption is also certain …. Then you will only ever use your available life force to work in love, you will receive strength and constantly increase it, and you will be able to resist My adversary, you will turn to Me, Whom you recognize and acknowledge in Jesus Christ, and his power is broken from the moment you entrust yourselves to the divine redeemer Jesus Christ, confess your guilt to Him and ask for His forgiveness …. For then you willingly turn to Me again, from Whom you once separated yourselves. And My strength of love can now radiate through you again, you will receive strength and now be active according to My will …. And your spiritual strength will grow, you will mature in your souls, you will strive for perfection on earth, and you will also be able to do so because you have become free from the power which kept you bound until Jesus Christ Himself loosened the chains and you can now live in spiritual freedom again. And then you will have attained true life, which you will not be able to lose again, for through Jesus Christ you have truly been redeemed from sin and death …._>Amen

Divine love commandments …. right church of Christ ….
B.D. 7905 from May 30th 1961, taken from Book No. 82
Wherever the gospel of love is preached the spirit from Me is also active, providing that the mouth does not merely speak dead words which are without spirit and life …. that the preacher only uses dead letters of which his heart knows nothing. Yet as soon as the gospel is proclaimed alive it is I Myself Who speaks through the preacher’s mouth, and then the word will not remain without impression either, it will touch the hearts of the listeners again who are also alive and desire to be addressed by Me Myself. Where love is taught I can also intervene Myself, Who am love …. And where love is taught My vineyard labourers are also active to cultivate people’s hearts and to supply them with divine seed, for the commandments of love are given by Me Myself, they are the most important commandments, the fulfilment of which results in an inconceivable blessing. Where love is taught the first thing is done in order to achieve a living faith which presupposes the fulfilment of those commandments …. and where there is living faith is My church which I Myself founded on earth …. And thus all people who live in love and faith belong to this church. Hence you need never ask which denomination or school of thought is the right one …. for every one can register members of My right church, because people can be found everywhere who live in love and thereby also attained a living faith …. And these again will have awakened their spirit in themselves to life and also stand in knowledge …. And this is the sign of belonging to My church, that My spirit works in them …. that a bright light shines in them, that they are able to recognize the pure truth and therefore also reject error, that they are also certain of their judgment because My spirit itself instructs them and kindles that bright light for them. And thus true representatives of truth will also emerge from every denomination or school of thought. And those who are of the same spirit will come together …. And these will be happy when they find each other, when they gather and feel Me Myself in their midst, as I have promised. For they will feel My presence because I Myself express Myself through the spirit of those who bear witness to Me, who come together to exchange spiritual information. These are therefore alive in faith and also alive in their actions, for once they have recognized Me, which My spirit achieves in them, they will also eagerly stand up for Me; their predominantly spiritually directed life will become recognizable and inspire their fellow human beings to also look for the right life which, however, can only arise through a life of love. Love is everything …. Without love every spiritual organisation is just a dead building, because the members determine the life of this organisation. They must practice love, they must fulfil the divine commandments of love, only then will they come to life and never lose this life again. Therefore, every person should only ever try to increase his degree of love, he should not be satisfied with external actions and the fulfilment of humanly decreed commandments …. he should only pay attention to My divine commandments of love, he should remember that I only gave these two commandments of love for God and his neighbour when I lived on earth, and he should know that everything else results from the fulfilment of these commandments: a living faith, profound spiritual knowledge, enlightened thinking and the supply of divine strength in order to be able to successfully cover the path of earthly life …. For the aim is the union with Me, the complete unification, which, however, can only be achieved by love. For I Myself am love, and whatever wants to unite with Me must have completely shaped itself into love. This is so simple and understandable that love has to be lived first, that the commandments of love truly have to be called the most important and that therefore My church is only built on love and the faith which has come alive through love …. Thus only ever endeavour to live in love and know that I am present wherever My gospel of love is proclaimed …._>Amen
