Wrestling of the beings of light in the realm of darkness ….

B.D. 7948 from July 24th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

In the spiritual kingdom, too, there is an incessant battle for the souls, for My adversary rages there as well, and he seeks to prevent the souls from taking the path to ascent …. In the spiritual kingdom too the adversary seeks to push the souls away from the light and envelop them in ever denser darkness …. Yet forces of light are also active in the spiritual kingdom which help every soul if it only has the slightest will to come out of darkness into the light. Thus even these souls in darkness are not without protection, only the will has to awaken in themselves towards the light, towards ascent, towards freedom …. And this is the battle between light and darkness, that the beings of light constantly endeavour to push the bad forces out of the darkness and to influence the souls in such a way that they themselves want to escape the darkness …. This happens in every way, only the beings of light cannot approach the souls in radiant brightness but they have to appear in the same state as those, so that the souls gain confidence and express themselves …. And then intercession on the part of people is of immense help because the souls’ will to resist is thereby weakened if it is not completely broken, which then considerably facilitates the light beings’ work …. But the love of these beings does not abandon the souls which are handed over to their care …. They themselves stand in the light and are thereby also blissfully abundant …. and thus their love drives them again and again to release the unhappy souls from their state and to bring them the light. And they usually succeed, only in the case of completely hardened souls does the adversary have the upper hand, and then it can also lead to renewed banishment at the end of a redemption period when the soul, instead of ascending, sinks ever deeper and then a renewed dissolution of the spiritual substances is inevitable. The redeemer’s work in the spiritual kingdom is carried out ever more intensively, for the beings of light are aware of the coming earth upheaval, they know about the danger of a new banishment of incorrigible souls, and they truly do everything to spare them this fate, because they know about the agonies and the infinitely long time until they can walk the earth again as I-conscious beings. And the activity which makes them happy consists of helping the souls to salvation, of bringing them the light, of leading them to Jesus Christ, Whom they must first have found in the kingdom of the beyond if the kingdom of light is to be opened to them. For this reason your work of redemption on earth is blessed, for every soul which has already found Him on earth need not fear the darkness even if it cannot yet demonstrate a high degree of light when entering the spiritual kingdom; but it need not fear a decline, it has escaped the adversary’s power and will be granted help in every way so that it can ascend to the ascent. My adversary truly makes extensive use of the power he possesses in the end, and he oppresses everything spiritual which strives towards Me …. And he will try by all means to prevent that what still belongs to him also takes the path to Me …. But the beings of light let their love radiate and achieve much with it, even if they have to respect the souls’ free will. Love fights against hatred, and love is truly a great strength …. And thus you humans on earth can also push everything unspiritual away from you through love, you can also successfully wage the battle against darkness if you let love break through, if you only ever oppose evil with love …. For the adversary succumbs to love, he flees it, and then he leaves you when love becomes overpowering in you, which is why you can also bring help to the beings in darkness by virtue of your love, because they surrender when such a ray of love touches them …. And then they are also saved, and My adversary has lost power over these souls, for anyone who has once felt the strength of love has his resistance broken, and now it is not difficult for the beings of light in the spiritual kingdom to help them upwards, and they are saved for all eternity ….

Amen

The father takes over all the worries ….

B.D. 7949 from July 25th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Trust in My help in every earthly and spiritual adversity and only turn to Me, your father of eternity, with all your concerns, Who is always willing to help His children and Whom you will never call upon in vain …. if only you fully trust Me. All earthly events approach you in such a way as to be helpful for your ascent development …. And even if it seems to you as if you get into adversity and distress …. you yourselves can avert these from you if only you faithfully adhere to Me, if you ask Me to take all worries upon Myself …. and I will do so, for the father wants to win His child’s love and will therefore only ever give it love …. Every spiritually-directed thought also guarantees you My help, for I have given you the promise: “Seek first the kingdom of God …. everything else will be added to you ….” And if you now give priority to the maturing of your soul, if you turn your thoughts towards Me and the spiritual kingdom, earthly hardship will not affect you so much because I Myself will take it away from you. My promise will come true, of that you can be certain …. I demand of you that you pay more attention to your soul than to your body …. I require you to seek contact with Me and My kingdom, and then I will take over the worries which burden you earthly, I will always regulate everything in such a way that it will benefit you. But you must trust Me, you must not allow yourselves to be depressed by earthly hardship, you must only surrender everything to Me, and truly, you will be able to praise yourselves happily, for no-one can take care of you better than I can, because I know everything you need and because I also want to bestow gifts upon you who serve Me, who are willing to be called My own …. you who think of Me and carry Me in your heart. To whom else should My promise apply if not to you who have the will to live for My pleasure? And so, if you have a concern, be it earthly or spiritual, trustingly come to Me and present it to Me …. And truly, I will consider you according to your requests, for nothing is impossible for Me and My love for you is exceedingly great …. Yet also reckon that great changes will soon take place which are indispensable for the sake of all humanity. Yet even then I will guide My own through it and you will experience My power as well as My love, which will be clearly recognizable in My own …. For they will have what they need and My strength will flow to them so that they will not feel anything too heavy, even if they are affected by strokes of fate …. They will always feel My nearness and in firm faith hand themselves over to Me, and they will always be guided out of every adversity. Just make sure that your faith strengthens, join Me ever more intimately and have a silent dialogue with Me, and you will draw much strength from it and then also do nothing without Me, you will always let Me be with you, you will secure My presence for yourselves through heartfelt prayer and activity of love. And in this heartfelt bond you will also trustingly present everything to Me which is troubling you and be certain that I will take all worries from you, that I will take care of you and can truly do this better than an earthly father takes care of his children. And in order to test you and your faith you will also be confronted by worries and hardship again and again; yet since you know the path you need only walk it …. you need only call upon Me in spirit and in truth …. and truly, I will answer your prayer ….

Amen

Redemption only through Jesus Christ …. Self-Redemption is not possible ….

B.D. 7950 from July 26th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

You were redeemed through the death of Jesus Christ, and not a single being in the entire universe was excluded from this redemption, for He accomplished His act for all once fallen spirits, He accomplished it for all people past, present and future …. But the being itself has to acknowledge it, it has to consciously lay claim on the blessings of the act of Salvation …. God’s opponent is entitled to the spiritual being which had voluntarily followed him into the abyss …. It turned to him and away from God of its own free will …. of its own free will it has to turn away from him again and desire to return to God. However, it would never have found the strength to separate itself from him, because its will had been totally weakened by the adversary …. It would have stayed separated from God forever if the human being Jesus, in Whom God had manifested Himself, had not achieved the act of Salvation by means of his crucifixion, through which he acquired the blessings of a stronger will, which could then increase the fallen spirit’s will and then also enable it to rise up against the adversary and strive towards God ….

The act of Salvation will not force any being to return, but its return is made possible by it, which otherwise could never have taken place. Yet it always requires free will, otherwise all fallen spirits would have been instantly redeemed and every work of creation would already be spiritualised …. But redemption depends on the human being’s free will who, as a once fallen being, is travelling the path across earth for the purpose of becoming free, if he takes advantage of Jesus’ act of Salvation and His acquired blessings …. Then his redemption will be certain, then he will return to his origin as a child of God …. then Jesus Christ will not have died for him in vain …. he can still perfect himself in earthly life or ascend to the spiritual kingdom and be active in light and strength and freedom for his own happiness. It only requires your will to be redeemed, for Jesus atoned the guilt on his behalf, Jesus cleared the way for him to the Father, Jesus opened the gate to the kingdom of light …. But the human being himself has to want the act of Salvation to have been achieved for him, he has to consciously place himself underneath the cross of Christ, he has to acknowledge Him as Son of God and Redeemer of the world, in Whom God had manifested Himself in order to be able to become a ‘visible’ God for all His living beings …. Yet in that case one cannot ever speak about ‘Self-Redemption‘, even if one’s own free will is the first condition to attain the blessing of the act of Salvation …. The human being can never free himself from his great guilt of sin without the help of Jesus Christ, in his weakness of will he will never be able to lift himself up and detach himself from God’s adversary ….

The redemption of all souls is only possible through Jesus Christ, and this is why Jesus Christ the man suffered the crucifixion for all fallen spiritual beings and acquired the blessing of a strengthened will, which every being can lay claim to as soon as it has reached the stage of free will as a human being again. And this exceedingly joyful knowledge is conveyed to you humans. For now you are informed that you are not hopelessly lost, that there is a path of ascent for you, back to your Father’s house …. the path to the cross of Christ, which has to be taken without fail but which also assures you complete deliverance. If, however, you don’t take this path then you will not find redemption either, you will not be released from your adversary and that will mean that you will never be able to enter into the kingdom of light because your guilt of sin will prevent your entry. You yourselves will be unable to free yourselves from this sin, but you will be able to carry it under the cross, to Jesus Christ, Who shed His blood for your guilt and thereby also bought you back from God’s adversary. Only your will has to make conscious use of this blessing, and then your guilt will also be redeemed …. you will be free beings again as you were in the beginning, and need only perfect yourselves in earthly life, that is, through loving activity, shape your nature into love again …. you need only seek closest unity with God, your Father of eternity, and your soul will mature and then, as His children, be able to enter the kingdom of light and bliss ….

Amen

Faith ….

B.D. 7951 from July 27th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

You all have to acquire a much firmer faith and that means that you have to love even more, because love brings forth a living faith …. Performing labours of love creates a direct bond with Me, Who is eternal love …. It should be self-evident that you can no longer doubt or have a weak faith when you are connected to Me because then I Am the guarantee Myself that your faith won’t be destroyed …. And although your will to believe can be strong …. but you must have an equally strong will to do works of love …. Love has to be the inner driving force of all your intentions and actions, then your faith will be firm and steadfast …. you simply will not be able to doubt anymore but will be sure of what you should believe. And this convinced faith will fill you with joy and give you inner peace because then I Am with you Myself, because your deeds of love draw Me closer to you without fail, because ‘those who love are in Me and I Am in them ….’ Love unites us permanently and love gives birth to an unwavering, living faith. And when you pray for a firm faith then you have to pray for a strong will to love at the same time and you will achieve a firm faith indeed.

I repeatedly give you this information because you are approaching the time when you need a firm, unwavering faith to remain resolved until the end …. If you have this faith nothing can upset you, no matter what happens, because then you know that I will help you and thus you are giving yourselves into My hands with blind faith …. And then I Am indeed always willing to help, I will not leave you at times of physical or spiritual distress because your willingness to love, your way of life, has made you My Own already, you have joined Me again and I Am now able to work in and through you.

A firm faith is the best guarantee you can have because it gives you inner peace and calmness during all earthly events which I can avert from you or reduce their effects because you have faith …. And thus you should always pray: ‘Father, help me to do works of love and let my will to love become ever stronger ….’ And the will to love will grow at the same rate because love guarantees My presence and My presence guarantees help at all times of distress …. Love also guarantees the recognition of all correlations and hence the understanding for everything which, in turn, contributes to the strengthening of faith. Love is everything …. and if you have love you are also filled with strength from Me and this strength enables you to do unusual things when necessary, when love is the driving force that makes you want to help …. Then you have the faith that moves mountains …. and then you won’t fear whatever happens to you. Because then you are connected to Him, Who is Lord above all, Who can command the elements to spare you and Who wants to prove Himself as your Father …. Who loves His children and will not leave them to become victims of destruction …. Ask Me every day for the strengthening of your faith and the will to love, as this is a spiritual request which I certainly will fulfil because love and faith are necessary for your perfection ….

Amen

Carrying the divine word into the world ….

B.D. 7952 from July 30th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Whatever is offered to you earthly …. Nothing can replace My gifts of grace, and nothing can give your soul the riches it receives spiritually through My address. And therefore you must never forget this gift of grace above earthly pleasures, earthly joys or earthly riches …. you should take nothing so important as the daily intercourse with Me, which gives you My direct address …. I can give you everything, but I can also take everything away from you. But as long as you possess Me Myself, as long as you are able to hear Me Myself, you truly possess the best, the greatest wealth and the most desirable thing a human being can possess on earth …. I Myself am close to you and My presence is your greatest benefit. And you should not want to give this away for anything, you should rather do without everything if you thereby run the risk of forfeiting Me Myself and My presence for you …. You should be willing to give up everything just so as not to lose My gift of grace of being directly addressed by Me …. And if you prove this willingness to Me then you belong to Me completely, and then you are faithful servants to Me whom I can now also use for every work, for every task, and who will also serve Me with all devotion. And then I can also give you without having to fear losing you to the world again. You should gladly give up the world with its pleasures, then there is no danger that it will demand you back again, that you will become enslaved by the world again, for as soon as you were once allowed to receive spiritual possessions from My hand they are more important to you than what belongs to the world. Yet again and again My adversary will try to chain you to the world again, and he will use all arts in order to achieve his aim …. Yet you can also be certain of My protection, for inner strength will also flow to you to resist him because you don’t want to give up the bond with Me and this will secures My protection and My strength for you. (7/29/1961) You should indeed always be mindful and know that the adversary will leave no stone unturned in order to push you onto another path again, but the strength of My word is stronger, and therefore you will always desire My word, because it will always make you more happy than all the goods of the world and because everything seems stale to you in view of these gifts of grace which you may accept as often as this is your will. And therefore you are also constantly under My guidance, you who serve Me as an instrument in the last time before the end. And I Myself always guide you on the right path …. And if this path leads through the midst of the world I will try to influence souls there as well and address them through you, for I truly still know how to gather My sheep and lure them away from the dangers which threaten them because they are still too exposed to My adversary’s attacks …. and they shall also hear the shepherd’s call …. The world offers great danger but I am also to be found in the midst of the world if only a silent call reaches My ear, if only questioning thoughts are sent into the spiritual kingdom, from where an answer will then certainly come. For this reason I require strong supports which do not fall themselves when they are placed in the world, when they are blown around by strong storms of all kinds …. when temptations assail them or attacks by hostile-minded people who will always be represented in the world, in the world’s gears, and proceed against everything spiritual because they are much closer to the world and thus to My adversary’s territory, to whom the earthly world belongs. But I can also be close to such strong supporters in the midst of the world, for they will always keep their ear open to the words which sound from above, they will always open their hearts for My flow of strength of grace, they will not take a step in the ‘world’ without Me. And thus they will also carry My word into this world where only one heart willingly opens and receives it. I know where a receptive heart can still be found, I know where My word is recognized and accepted, and I also want to guide My word there, I want to scatter the seed so that it will still sprout and bear good fruit. For there is not much time left until the end …. My ways are strange, yet you walk them under My guidance …. and if you now willingly let yourselves be guided without offering Me even the slightest resistance, you will only ever be amazed at how easily even difficult problems can be solved if I bring about this solution Myself. I still seek to create clarity everywhere where there is ambiguity …. I am still knocking on many doors in order to be able to enter Myself in order to offer spiritual gifts to human hearts …. I still know many souls who hunger and thirst and long for strong soul food …. I still know many sick people who need good, healing medicine …. And I want to draw their attention to the spring which I have opened up, from which truly springs the best water of life, which refreshingly touches people who bow down at it and expect healing and strengthening for their pilgrimage to the eternal home. And I send My messengers to invite all the weak and sick to My table so that I can give them food and drink and good medicine, which I keep ready for everyone because I know all people’s suffering and weaknesses and want to help them. And thus My gospel shall also be carried into the ‘world’, because people can be found everywhere who are willing to accept it if only it is offered to them in the right form …. i.e. as pure truth ….. And I will accompany My messengers, I will guide them and protect them from all attacks by My adversary …. because My love is always with those who want to serve Me …. My wisdom recognizes their will and My might truly protects them in every adversity and danger ….

Amen

Only beings of light are permitted to teach ….

B.D. 7953 from July 31th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

The spiritual world constantly endeavours to bring help to those people who desire help from the beings of light …. For all beings of light act in accordance with My will, and if I want to help people then it will often take place through My angels, through all spirits of light, whose happiness consists of implementing My will. But all these beings do not act in opposition to My will, because due to their spiritual maturity they completely entered into My will already, because they want nothing other than to comply with My will, in other words: My will is their will too, since they possess an abundance of love and wisdom and recognise that My will only intends that which is right for My living creations and therefore they unconditionally submit themselves to My will. And thus it is understandable that they will indeed impart the full truth if they are permitted by Me to bring spiritual enlightenment to people …. if they have the task to instruct people mentally, to proclaim the Gospel to them in the form of My Word, which I also convey to you through these beings of light …. but the Word which originates from Me will always be the same, because they receive My illumination of love and then pass it on again. For their bliss consists of their uninterrupted connection with Me, of the flow of My Word which is heard by them directly and which they pass on again according to My will. Thus beings of light can never disseminate untrue spiritual knowledge, and only beings of light are permitted to teach you humans if you have asked Me Myself for the truth, if you demonstrate your desire for truth to Me through your appeal for it. In that case you can only be taught the truth, for I will protect you from the intrusion of immature spirits who want to impart wrong teachings to you because they act on behalf of My adversary …. but which will never gain entry to people who desire truth …. And therefore you can safely accept the Words offered to you by beings of light as My Word, for they are merely the mediators of the pure truth from Me, which they themselves receive in form of a direct address ….

For My Word sounds in the kingdom of the blessed spirits in order to make them incredibly happy …. But then they will also work with it because the love of these beings constantly endeavours to bring light into the darkness, and My Word is the light which penetrates the darkness …. And if you humans want to receive the pure truth from Me you need only make heartfelt contact with Me and appeal for it …. You can rest assured that I will grant this wish to you, and then you can also accept that everything given to you is given by Me Myself, even if it is conveyed to you through beings of light, for My strength of love, My Word, shines into them and through them down to you humans again, since these beings care for you with greater than great love and will also prevent misguided thinking from influencing your thoughts. They push all immature spirits away from you on My instructions, so that the pure ´Word of God´ is not distorted, so that you humans may receive it in all purity and as accurate as it originated from Me. Nevertheless, the fact that My adversary is also at work and makes an effort to sow evil seeds everywhere cannot by denied …. Yet this will always be determined by people themselves, i.e. by their will, who allow themselves to be accessed by these forces, who thus do not entirely hand themselves over to Me and only strive for the pure truth …. who use their own will and allow themselves to be taken possession of by still unenlightened beings …. This is why a person should practise rigorous self-criticism as to what extent he has entered into the right relationship with Me …. And he should only ever hand himself over to the good forces, to the beings of light and the implementers of My will, he should appeal to Me for protection from being besieged by everything unspiritual …. he should only ever want to be addressed by Me Myself, Who is the primary source of truth and Who therefore will only ever bestow truth upon those who desire it …. However, I know and see through his heart and all his thoughts …. And thus I also know the substance of his innermost nature …. and accordingly he will receive, accordingly he will be surrounded by forces of light or of darkness. Yet the eternal light of love will always shine into a receptive heart which utterly opens itself to Me so that I can fill it with light and strength ….

Amen

God's protection in the battle of faith ….

B.D. 7954 from August 1st 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Thus stand firm and don’t let your faith waver, for I, your God and Father of eternity, Am and remain with you when the great battle of faith begins by which My adversary also wants to cause the downfall of you who are My Own. Everything undertaken against Me will always aim to render Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation implausible to you …. And the fact that Jesus Christ will be denied, that people shall be deprived of all faith in Him and that they therefore shall have no opportunity to depart from this earth in a redeemed state shall be taken by you as an obvious sign of the approaching end …. For My adversary will openly challenge Me by attacking Jesus Christ in Whom I became a visible God for humanity.

And the more intense this battle erupts the more you can be assured of My presence, for I will not abandon My Own, I will not let My adversary be victorious over those who want to be and remain My Own. And when you are thus cornered by the requirement to deny Me as the divine Redeemer Jesus Christ …. when you have to choose between Me and My adversary, then just put all your trust in Me as then I will be closer to you than ever; I Myself will fight with you and you need not fear My adversary, for My power is supreme and will protect you, no matter how threatening the undertakings against you may look. But then you can expect your deliverance within hours, you can count on My coming within hours and the end of the world, whence I will remove you at the height of affliction and danger ….

Do not become doubtful then, but remember that I have foretold you that you will still have to endure great tribulations for the sake of your faith ….Yet the stronger your faith and the more confidently you abide by Me, the easier will be the battle of faith for you, for I truly have the power at My disposal to avert even the worst from you, and My Own shall experience My love and power and therefore can confidently and fearlessly look ahead to this time. But it will come, for the believers will come under attack by earthly authorities and those who are enslaved by My adversary …. My Own will have to give public testimony and should not be frightened, for the God Whom they acknowledge will also reveal His power and help them in earthly adversity and distress ….

Just be prepared that brutal measures will be used against you, who want to remain loyal to Me …. But don’t forget that I Am Lord over life and death, over heaven and earth …. and that I truly have means and ways to lead My Own out of earthly hardship, even if it seems as if there is no way out. And whatever earthly things will be denied to you …. I will miraculously feed you and quench your thirst, for that, too, is within My power, after all, I created heaven and earth, I made all laws according to My will …. and thus I can also abolish laws and nourish you supernaturally …. I can also surround you with a protective barrier, I can instruct My angels to form such a barrier around you ….

You only have to faithfully entrust yourselves to Me, your Father, Who will not leave His children in peril and Who will protect you from the enemy of your soul, from earthly and spiritual opponents …. For My might and My love is great …. And this will happen in the near future …. Yet prior to this you will still be subjected to tests of faith but these, too, will strengthen and enable you to stand firm in the last battle on this earth. And as soon as this conflict flares up you will also know that the end is not far away, for My adversary will only wage war for a short time, because for the sake of My chosen people I will shorten the time, I will bind him as well as his supporters. For the time he was granted for his activities on earth is fulfilled and the end of the earth is near, as it is proclaimed in Word and Scripture ….

Amen

Moon ….

B.D. 7955 from August 2nd 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Only I Myself can make truthful knowledge accessible to you, because only I know everything and all beings of light are also permeated by the knowledge which corresponds to the truth, because they receive this truth from Me …. since the illumination of My light of love into eternity imparts realisation upon all the beings I can address. This is why a being of light must have attained a specific degree of maturity, or it must accomplish a mission in order to reduce the spiritual adversity on earth …. But ‘illumination of love’ always signifies My transmission of truth, of knowledge relating to the spiritual sphere that cannot be gained by any other means than through direct illumination and that therefore requires receptive vessels to accept the eternal light of love. All perfect spirits are at all times ready and willing to be receptive and, as stations of strength and light, can therefore time and again serve to forward the light of love. People on earth, however, do not usually possess this degree of perfection. However, for the purpose of helping I can also choose a person as a receptacle for My love of light …. if certain preconditions exist which allow for it. I can also convey truthful knowledge to people on earth if My wisdom realises that it is necessary for people’s salvation of soul to transmit light to them …. Then I will use a vessel which has prepared itself through love for the reception of My flow of love, this will guarantee the pure truth, because it is My will that people should gain possession of the truth. Then I will also instruct them in everything they need to know for the benefit of their soul. In that case the person would be able to ask any question, it will be truthfully answered for him. I always want to answer you if it benefits your soul. Consequently, you should ask Me spiritual questions, for knowledge about earthly things is worthless for the maturing of the soul. But I will also guide your thoughts correctly in every other aspect, because every error is detrimental for you, every error results in negative consequences, regardless of whether these consequences have a spiritual or earthly effect ….

The simplest answer to your previous debates about the Moon is this: …. The moon constantly accompanies the earth on its orbit, but it is not constantly within the range of the Sun’s light because spiritually it is further away from the Sun than the Earth …. The Earth circles the Sun and, due to its own revolution, the rays of the Sun will always affect a different part of Earth, thus resulting in light and darkness. Although the moon’s orbit is the same, it nevertheless takes longer to circle, with other words, it cannot be exposed to the Sun’s rays at the same time, instead, they will only ever affect that part of the moon which, during its course as the Earth’s satellite, can catch the Sun’s light. This is because its distance from Earth results in the fact that it requires more time to complete its orbit and so it cannot be affected by the sun’s rays at the same time but in intervals instead, depending on the Earth’s position in relation to the Sun. Thus the Earth does not stand as a shadow between Sun and Moon, instead, the Earth reflects the light it receives from the Sun during its rotation and which can be received by the Moon depending on its position to the Earth, and this always changes because, although the Moon accompanies the Earth as a satellite, its velocity is not the same as the Earth revolves around itself …. It accompanies the Earth in the universe but it does not rotate at the same speed, therefore it cannot always be visible to the inhabitants on Earth either. However, it will always be able to receive the sun’s rays of light, which cannot be restricted by any other planets. The Moon certainly always accompanies the Earth, but on account of Earth’s constant rotation it is, from time to time, not visible to the inhabitants on earth …. it cannot be seen …. not because the Sun does not shine on it or because it happens to be within the shadow of Earth, but because the inhabitants on earth themselves happen to be on the other side of Earth in relation to the Moon due to the Earth’s rotation and because, on the other hand, they can also see the Sun and the Moon at the same time if this side of the Earth faces the Moon, the latter of which is possible during the day as well as at the night …. but this does not depend on the Sun’s illumination, instead, it depends on the position of the Moon in relation to the Earth.

Amen

Light beam of the sun ….

B.D. 7956 from August 3rd 1961, taken from Book No. 83

The grace of the word reception ensures you also My protection, and you don’t need to be afraid, to labour under a mistake, because I know your desire for truth and don’t give you wrong teachings, though you are surrounded constantly by forces of darkness, that would like to dim or extinguish the light from above …. But they are powerless against the light, that is beaming them and they flee, because they recognize its source. But again and again they will try to embarrass your thoughts, which I however straighten right again and again, because it is your task, to serve Me in My vineyard and thus to spread the truth, which I Myself transmit you from above, because you people need it to your maturing. I alone can only teach you right and likewise the beings of light too, through them flows the same light of love, that emanates from Me, and therefore they always can only emit the same light, that they take in reception by Myself, to let it radiate in the darkness. And so you are allowed indubitably to take on everything approaching you from above. You only have to know, that it is hard, to reveal secrets of creation to you, as long as you’re still quite ignorant in it …. For you don’t know the laws of nature, even to know their effects, and even you know less about the divine spiritual laws …. You don’t know about the sources of light in the universe, which have a purely spiritual origin and yet their effect can be seen by the earthly eye …. And therefore you can not be given a clear explanation, whether and when the rays of the sun experience a reduction in their radiation force, whether and when the radiation force is entirely abolished. Human calculations are not applicable, although alleged evidences believe to justify them ….The radiation area of the sun is also limited, because it is a spiritual light stream, that is interrupted, when the lawful order is not complied, where the fundamental principle of eternal order turns off an efficacy, what you people can not recognize and understand in your limited state. Spiritual processes in the cosmos will always correspond with earthly or apparent processes, because everything is in closest relationships with one another …. And so there would be no obstacles or limitations for the irradiation of sunlight, if not by a certain resistance of the still immature spiritual …. from that the world bodies exist in the universe more or less …. the light force or radiation force would be reduced or prevented …. But the nature of the world bodies is just caused in the composition of immature spiritual substances, and the degree of their completion determines also the degree of illumination …. and so even more perfect creations are self-radiant heavenly bodies, because they can get light from the original source, without finding resistance, and therefore also those light sources can emit light again …. So also any dark star can be illuminated, and it is also illuminated in the proportion, as “life“ must be ensured on those stars. But a permanent illumination would rather endanger “life“, therefore these floodlightings must also be kept within limits, which explains the alternation of day and night in the spiritual sense. However all processes in the universe can be explained earthly, but a certain requirement for understanding must be there …. People must know, that all the stars in the region of the sun also receive the light of this, but always in the explained manner before, that they only get light, that is necessary for “life“ and existance, according to the mental state of its inhabitants …. and that this illumination of light can be seen sometimes by inhabitants of other heavenly bodies …. But in no way a world body , a star, prevents or limits the illumination of one another, as you humans imagine, for every star is the sun accessible in the same proportion, but its illumination is determined by the star itself, which so characterizes the spiritual state of its substance …. Because the sunlight is spiritual radiation, the sun is a self-luminous heavenly body, that is constantly fed by the source of the original strength and the light and forwards the strength and lightning stream constantly …. It is well visible in the firmament, but already a creation of spiritual nature …. where perfect spiritual engages in the preservation of the works of creation, which are in the range of this sun …. Now spiritual radiation penetrates everything, also each matter, but it stops in its efficiency, where a resistance offers in form of unspiritual substance, as any matter is meant. But this substance would never hinder or stop floodlighting, to meet other stars again, that is a false idea, that a star could prove to be a shadow for another …. But laws exist according to divine order, and these laws will also endure eternally, as long as there a material creation exists …. And where it is only possible, I will inform you people also of that, when the maturity of your souls allows this and when I consider it salutary for you and your soul ….

Amen

Cosmos …. Moon ….

B.D. 7957 from August 4th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Even the slightest lack of clarity has a negative effect, for it causes doubt in a person and darkens the light which should illuminate his heart. Nevertheless, an influx of light will always occur when the heart opens itself to accept its rays. Where lack of clarity exists, an explanation needs to be given, for I do not want a person who wants to think correctly to get confused. But neither do I want error to be spread where only serving the truth is wanted …. Yet need any of you worry about this when I instruct your Myself and you only pass on what I Myself Am telling you? …. The fact that you yourselves cannot intellectually grasp everything need not alarm you, for as long as you are not perfect as yet, your thinking will still be limited and unable to reconcile your previous convictions with the explanations I give to you, if they concern areas which science believes to have disclosed. However, even science cannot deny the fact that many still unexplored things exist in the cosmos …. And what it believes to have explored lacks proof, for the evidence it produced is wrong …. This also includes the calculations they made about the distance and the relationship of the Moon’s position to Earth …. and it is difficult to give a right explanation to those of you humans who have acquired the knowledge you believe you can prove …. By merely considering the constant rotation of Earth around its own axis, you will have to realise that the Moon is indeed a satellite of Earth but nevertheless an entirely independent star from Earth, which circles within the region of the same Sun as the Earth, thus it also receives continually light from it …. The Earth is neither able to stop this flow of light nor to restrict it …. Yet the inhabitants of earth can more or less see the Moon, according to the position of Earth, which it occupies during its rotation around itself …. The illumination of light takes place in lawful order, and the stars also take their orbit in lawful order …. Therefore the same events occur in intervals, the same natural cycle of day and night …. But you humans should not forget that everything is in motion, that nothing stands still in the whole universe and that these movements also happen according to law and yet the stars which appear to be constant in the sky can be observed by you humans …. which might, purely physically, make a constant rotation of Earth debatable. And yet the Earth rotates around itself, but it will remain an eternal mystery which you human will never be able to solve …. You can certainly always assume and believe to produce proof, but this proof will never be right …. on account of which you will never succeed in taking possession of other stars whose laws are entirely different to those on Earth and which therefore also exclude the possibility that you humans can ‘live’ there, after all, the living conditions differ on each heavenly body and are only suitable for the beings living there and correspond to their spiritual state …. Every law is known to Me alone as well as to all spirits of light who receive this knowledge from Me …. But you humans will only know everything when you have entered the kingdom of light and your thinking is no longer limited ….

Amen

The grace of life on earth as a human being ….

B.D. 7958 from August 5th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Every human soul is a fallen original spirit which is close to its perfection, i.e., whose path is only a short one left until unification with Me, provided that it is in the last stage of development …. as a human being …. turns his free will towards Me, that he thus professes Me again, Whom he once refused to acknowledge. And every human soul has an infinitely long path of development behind it, because this was necessary in order to emerge from the bottomless abyss, to ascend to the height where it originally dwelled …. In this stage as a human being the soul is also again receptive to a light, i.e., it can again gain a degree of knowledge which it had lost when it fell away from Me …. For the soul is self-aware, it can think and want again as in the beginning, only to a weak degree, but it can increase it during its earthly life …. The degree of realization is also decisive for the soul when it has left its existence as a human being and now enters the spiritual kingdom, for this degree of realization signifies light, without which the soul can never be blissfully happy. The human being himself can acquire a high degree of light during his earthly existence, he can be far advanced in realization if he uses his earthly existence to shape his nature into love, which was his original state and which absolutely has to be attained again in order to be able to dwell in the spiritual kingdom in blissful union with Me. This transformation into love is the work which the human being has to accomplish himself but which he can also do because he is granted help in every way. But at the beginning of his embodiment the human being’s nature is still in perverse love as a result of his fall into sin in the spiritual kingdom and also of the renewed fall into sin of the first human beings …. Ego love dominates him, and this is to be changed into unselfish neighbourly love. For this purpose the human being is on earth, or also: The fallen original spirit must accomplish this transformation to love in free will itself, so that it achieves its divinisation and can now create and work in union with Me in freedom, light and strength …. And this transformation into love is the purpose of earthly life and no being can be spared, for it is at the same time the being’s passed test of will …. It is the evidence of the being’s divinity, which emerged from Me and was created perfect but now has to strive for this perfection in free will itself in order to be able to exist next to Me as a divine being, in order to be able to dwell with Me as ‘My child’, from Whom it once originated as a ‘creature’ …. The divinisation of the beings created by Me was and is My aim which I will certainly achieve but the duration of which is determined by the being itself. And once it has reached the stage as a human being it is close to its aim, and the human being should now make every effort to make good use of the last short period of time for its final perfection. He should acquire the knowledge of his purpose of earthly life, of all correlations and of My will, for the fulfilment of My will is working in love, and working in love also brings him light …. knowledge which corresponds to truth, knowledge which gives him full realization and which impels him to only pursue the aim of perfecting himself on earth, to shape his nature into love and thereby always establish the bond with Me, which is then indissoluble and the attainment of the aim is now also assured. The human being should also evaluate his self-awareness, i.e. think about himself, and then I will always be at his side, I will guide his thoughts correctly and I Myself will support him in every way so that he will reach his aim. Yet one day his remorse will be bitter if he lets the time on earth pass by unused and knows about the endless course of development before …. Yet as a human being he must not be given the recollection because then a life of free will would be impossible, because he would then live in fear and thus under a certain compulsion and his will and actions could not be judged as a free decision of will …. You should never forget that earthly life as a human being is a grace which you only need to use correctly in order to become blessed ….

Amen

Conclusion of earthly progress only with Jesus Christ ….

B.D. 7959 from August 6th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

You have come a long way already but the fact that you are still walking on earth is proof that you have not yet concluded your path of development …. with the exception of those who incarnated on earth for the purpose of a spiritual mission and whose souls had thus previously covered this progress of development and had found admission in the realm of light …. But I speak to you humans who are not yet perfect, who had once deserted Me and had to walk this long path of development so that you can now, at the human stage, voluntarily take the last test of will, the passing of which will ensure your entry into the realm of light. Hence you are not yet perfect but you have ascended from the deepest depths to the heights, if only by law of compulsion …. The depths had to release you because My will had intended this long path for you which pulled you away from My adversary’s domination, or your ascent would have been impossible …. But now he has been given his right once again because you are still his property since you had previously followed him into the abyss voluntarily and this free will has not yet made the new decision: for him or for Me, Who longs for your return but will not force you if you willingly want to stay with him.

Thus, at the human stage, My adversary once again applies his power by influencing your will but he is unable to force it as you have to decide of your own accord which lord you will choose. However, I cannot stop him using all his persuasions to chain you to him …. I cannot stop him from using ploys to tempt you, only to keep your soul or to regain it if he has already lost it …. You now have to face him yourselves voluntarily and fight against him if you want to free yourselves from him. And you really need not fear his strength because you have a strong Helper by your side Whom you only need to ask to win the battle with Him: Jesus Christ, your Redeemer from sin and death …. Even though you, as a human being, have already overcome the deepest abyss, even though you, thanks to My help, have also come considerably closer to Me during the infinitely long period of development …. yet the burden of your original sin as a result of your desertion from Me, constantly pushes you down again and you would never be able to resist the will of My adversary if Jesus Christ would not help you, if He would not give you an intensified will which He Himself acquired for you by His death on the cross.

My adversary’s power over you is too great that you could resist it with your own strength …. But you are guaranteed a supply of strength by just giving yourselves to Jesus Christ and requesting Him to take upon Himself the guilt of which you are not yet released and which therefore inescapably chains you to My adversary …. Jesus Christ, in Whom I manifested Myself, will now take on the guilt because, with His death on the cross, He paid the purchase price for all souls to the adversary who now has to release the souls, if they want it themselves …. And with His help you can conclude the path of your earthly life, with His help you can become free of all guilt and enter through the gate into the realm of light, which otherwise is closed to you, but which will be opened by Jesus Christ for all souls who have voluntarily decided to take the path to the cross to liberate themselves from the burden of sin. As a human being on earth you only have a short time at your disposal but it is sufficient to completely release yourselves from every form, however, this always depends on the human being’s attitude towards the Divine Redeemer Jesus Christ …. because your former sin consisted of your rejection of Me and in the resistance of My strength of love …. In Jesus Christ, however, you shall know and acknowledge Me Myself, then you will also consciously accept My strength of love again and then nothing will stand in the way of your unity with Me …. Then the infinite long walk through the creations of earth and as earthly human being will have led to the right goal …. it will have resulted in your liberation and you will once again be candidates for My kingdom which will admit you and offer you blessings as it was in the beginning ….

Amen

Cosmos …. Illumination of stars ….

B.D. 7960 from August 7th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Cast all your worries upon the Lord …. I Am truly your Father to Whom you should talk to as My children when you are downhearted, in a spiritual or earthly way. I said to you Myself ‘Come unto Me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest ….’ And I will truly take every worry from you because I love you …. My love for you wants to prove itself time and again, so that you will reciprocate it and thus return to Me. For once you rejected My love, and therefore I constantly pursue your love which will bring you back to Me. In order to gain your love I will also let you experience difficulties at times, which should make you call upon Me, then you will gratefully accept My help and recognise the all-merciful Father in Me, Who is manifestly present to you and your hearts will lovingly turn to Him …. And that is all I strive for …. Accept the spiritual proclamations as they are offered to you, for they come from the kingdom of light and will truly not cause darkness. However, that which does not enlighten you, which leaves you in the dark, need not come from the kingdom of darkness, because I repel these forces when they want to express themselves. Yet it will always be possible for Me to enlighten your spirit providing you unreservedly believe that only truth can come forth from Me and that you will therefore also write down everything that was conveyed to you …. (relates to proclamation 7955) …. The will for truth guarantees the same, and even if a person’s maturity has not yet reached the highest degree, I will nevertheless be satisfied with his will for truth in order to protect him from error. And although you humans think that you can conduct scientific research …. the laws in the universe are not yet completely known to you, for this reason you will also have to accept something that appears to be absurd if it is explained to you by Me Myself, for your alleged ‘facts’ are only ‘assumptions’ which can be disputed. The Sun’s range of illumination is limited by law, because the heavenly bodies are more or less hardened spiritual substance, that is, material creations. And the harder the spiritual substance is, the more immature the spirits these creations shelter are and the more they also prevent the illumination. Thus rays of light will not reach them, because it is the law of eternity that resistance reduces the radiance of My light of love or even neutralises it entirely …. The law is not known to you humans, yet it takes effect in the universe, with other words: Everything in the universe is subject to this law, therefore it determines the spiritual state of maturity of the various stars and, for their inhabitants, also the degree of illumination and the degree of resistance of light. Thus the Sun can shine with brightest intensity and yet stars can repel its radiance or reject it on account of the unspiritual state both the works of creation as well as their inhabitants find themselves in …. This is particularly the case with the Moon, which can be considered a star of lowest-developed spiritual beings even in its consistency …. It is not excluded from the illumination by the Sun, yet it does not always allow for its effect …. Yet even the beings inhabiting the Moon are capable of changing, on account of which their state is not always the same and thus the Sun’s influence on the star also varies …. These are always ever spiritual explanations, but they can nevertheless also result in understanding earthly processes, but which the scientists on earth will not include in their investigations and therefore also look for earthly-understandable explanations which are, however, not entirely free from error. Yet you should grant credence to My Word that you humans will never get to the bottom of it, for the Earth is one of the tiniest creations in the universe, and its inhabitants still have far too little knowledge about the correlations as to be able to fathom the universe with all My works of creation which I control and direct in My love, wisdom and power and which I let arise as a means of returning the spirits to Me which, having once fallen away from Me, also lost all light, all knowledge, and will only regain these when they have concluded the process through Creation and then be brightly enlightened as well ….

Amen

Fight against ego love ….

B.D. 7961 from August 8th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Anyone who has overcome himself to such an extent that he is willing to make sacrifices for the sake of his neighbour has victoriously passed the battle against selfish love, and the neighbourly love strengthened in him will certainly lead him to perfection. Yet the battle against selfish love is difficult, it requires a strong will to overcome oneself if the human being is not driven to love from within by the dormant spiritual spark within him, which is part of divine love which is always willing to give. Then it will also be easy for the human being to carry out works of love, for then his being is already filled with love …. he follows the urging of the spirit within him, his being itself will become love, and he will also fulfil his purpose of earthly life …. Ego love will become ever smaller and the giving, gratifying love will fill him more and more; he will enter his earthly life (his original state) again, which was pure love. But where self-love is still strong and the human being is made aware of the divine commandments of love, the human being’s will can strive to do what is right before God in His eyes …. He can therefore consciously fight against self-love, he can carry out planned works of love …. less driven from within than in the will to fulfil God’s commandments …. Then it will certainly be a struggle at first, but that good will will let him emerge victorious from this struggle, for he will receive much support from God …. he will experience strengthening of his will, and again and again he will be offered opportunities to be lovingly active …. And he will acquire reciprocal love, and this will touch him inwardly and strengthen his will to love. And now the urge to be lovingly active will also become noticeable in him, he will not resist, and he will have passed the battle and his soul will mature. And thus the will’s turning towards God is decisive …. This will will always express itself or prove itself through the fulfilment of His will …. Where the spirit in the human being can express itself early on, the human being will also be recognizable through loving activity, through a helpful, friendly nature which is always willing to serve. Then the divine little spark of love in the human being’s heart can develop into a bright-igniting flame, and that means increased helpfulness and joyful service in love …. But the human being can also feel addressed by the word of God which is conveyed to him and which contains the divine commandments of love. He can believe that God requires love for Him and his neighbour, and then he can intellectually agree and make an effort to live as prescribed by God’s commandments …. Yet his will must always already be turned towards God, otherwise even those teachings will not touch him and he will not feel addressed in any way when love for God and his neighbour is preached. It is certainly possible that he changes his mind through great need of his fellow human being and is ready to help. And then the fight against self-love begins, which costs a lot of effort and does not always end in victory. Yet such people with hardened hearts can be greatly helped if they themselves are shown much unselfish love which is capable of awakening love in return …. if they are helped out of hardship in a selfless way, if they are repeatedly offered love which they will feel charitably and which can also change their nature …. For the divine spark glows in every human heart, and as soon as it succeeds in appealing to it, it works itself from within with great strength …. Yet again and again the divine teaching of love should be proclaimed to people, they should know about God’s will, and they should also experience the effect of a life of love as well as know about the failure of earthly life, that they can only become blissfully happy through love and that they therefore have to fight against self-love, because this is a wrongly directed love which hinders the human being’s perfection, because it is the inheritance of the one who is devoid of all love and who is therefore also wretched until he, too, will change, until his nature has become love again, as it was in the beginning ….

The immeasurable love of Jesus ….

B.D. 7962 from August 9th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

When I walked across the earth I, as a human being, recognized humanity’s great adversity because love was powerful in Me and thereby there was also brightest light in Me about the cause of the adversity, about the state people were in and also that they were bound by a power which was evil and wanted to plunge people into ruin …. The love within Me gave Me this realization, and the love within Me decided to make a sacrifice for humanity which was languishing in deepest adversity …. By virtue of My love I decided to engage in an open battle with the adversary, as a human being I wanted to prove to him that My love was a strength by means of which I could defeat him. I wanted to use My love against his hatred …. And this greater than great love of Mine was to redeem people from his power …. I knew about the cause of human existence, about the beings’ past apostasy from God, because the love within Me gave Me this realization. And thus I also knew that only ‘love’ could bring them salvation from their state of adversity …. And thus My efforts as the ‘human being Jesus’ were first of all to present the divine teaching of love to My fellow human beings and to encourage them to live a life of love so that they could acquire strength to resist My adversary …. And I exemplified a life of love to them and then crowned this life of love with My death on the cross …. I offered a sacrifice of love to the father for My fellow human beings and through this sacrifice bought people’s souls free from their dungeon master …. I paid the debt with My life …. Only love was able to make such a sacrifice, and love was in Me …. The father Himself, the eternal love, filled Me, the eternal love Himself thus redeemed the guilt which the spiritual had loaded upon itself when it fell, when it followed the adversary into the depth …. The former fall into the abyss, the separation from God, had only been possible because the beings had renounced love, because they did not accept the father’s illumination of love …. People had to become love again, and because they no longer had the strength to do so I acquired this willpower for them through My death on the cross and redeemed them from their weakened state …. And now they were able to free themselves from the adversary’s power, for they now received strength from Me as the divine redeemer, because they were now also able to live a life of love, because after My act of salvation they were now able to receive the illumination of love again, which constantly flows from Me as the eternal love to all beings which open themselves to receive it …. As a human being I recognized the great need of My fellow human beings …. I also knew this as an angelic spirit emanating from the father and offered Myself to descend to earth and bring the children back to the father again …. I offered Myself to serve eternal love as a human shell so that “love” could accomplish the work of redemption …. But I first also took the path as a human being across this earth, for a human being‘s free will should declare itself ready for this work of mercy, because a human being had to take unspeakable suffering upon Himself as atonement, since ‘God’ cannot suffer but a great sacrifice of atonement was necessary for the sake of justice in order to redeem the great original sin. But I came to earth with a heart full of love, and My life on earth was an unceasing activity of love, for love was the strength which people, however, lacked, which is why I preached the divine teaching of love and repeatedly admonished people to follow Me …. Yet until I had accomplished the act of salvation the adversary’s power was still too great and the human being was weakened to the utmost …. For this reason a saviour had to come Who liberated them from his power, for this reason ‘love’ had to accomplish a work through which the adversary was defeated …. A person’s love had to resist him and thus win the battle against him, for the adversary was no match for love, and thus he had to let go of the souls which gave themselves to divine love, which acknowledged Me and My act of salvation, which thus voluntarily wanted to return to Me and entered My flow of love again …. And this work of salvation has been accomplished, and thus every person can free himself from the adversary’s power who claims the blessings of the act of salvation, who acknowledges Me and My act of salvation, who asks Me for forgiveness of guilt and for strengthening of his will of love …. For he will be able to follow Me, he will be able to lead a way of life like Mine, and the love he now practices will impart strength to him so that he successfully covers his earthly path …. that he only strives towards Me Myself as the eternal love and that he finds unity with Me and returns to his father’s house, from which he once distanced himself of his own free will and therefore also has to accomplish the return of his own free will. Yet this return can only take place through love, and therefore I also preached love when I lived on earth and sent My disciples out to proclaim the divine teaching of love to all peoples of the earth …. For only love sets you free from the power of the one who is devoid of all love and therefore My adversary, which he will also remain until My act of salvation is finally completed …. until all spiritual beings have returned to Me and there can then eternally be no more death ….

Amen

‘Eye has not seen …. ’

B.D. 7963 from August 10th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

I have no other goal but to make you happy, to bestow the glories of My kingdom upon you, to let you see what no eye has ever seen, to give you infinite pleasure …. and to draw you to My heart as My children, because My love for you is beyond measure …. And one day I will certainly achieve this goal. Nevertheless, infinitely long periods of time can still pass by, because it is necessary …. that you, too, grant Me your love, that you voluntarily desire to return to Me from Whom you once originated …. And therefore I constantly seek to attract your love as well, I try to inform you of My nature, which is profoundly perfect, so that I will also gain your love when you recognise My nature correctly …. This is why I reveal Myself to you …. I provide you with the evidence that I exist, and I give you an explanation about My nature, My reign and activity, My eternal plan of Salvation …. I unveil a picture before your eyes which you can, and indeed will, love if only you open your eyes and accept this image in your heart …. And so that you can recognise Me correctly, I speak to you …. You humans are still spiritually blind and therefore unable to form an accurate concept of Me, your God and Creator, Who wants to be your Father …. As a result of your past fall from Me into the abyss you lost all realisation and at the start of your human existence you are still in this dark spiritual state …. So if I want to gain your love I must enlighten your spirit, I must grant you a small light which illuminates the image of your God and Creator for you, so that you will learn to recognise Me …. I must give you an explanation about your creation, your origin from a supremely perfect Being Which, although you were unable to behold It, nevertheless made you immensely happy …. I must inform you of what you had been, what you are and what you shall become again …. This knowledge shall therefore contribute that you will learn to recognise and love Me, that you will strive towards Me and would like to be united with Me again …. The goal during your life on earth is to exchange your state of darkness with a state of brightest light, in which the spirit in you, being a part of Me, can speak to you and enlighten you ever more brightly …. Then you will come ever closer to your God and Creator and will be able to attain the goal during your lifetime on earth: total unification with Me and thus also the bliss, which I want to bestow upon you in the abundance of My love …. In that case your final return has taken place; My courtship for your love was successful and My love can now make you happy, and you will be able to behold Me face to face …. For now I have become a visible God in Jesus Christ for you and your desire, which once persuaded you to turn away from Me to the one whom you acknowledged as a visible God but who became My adversary because he revolted against Me, has been granted. Due to your apostasy from Me you were separated from Me for an infinitely long time in a state of wretchedness …. But now you can behold Me Myself in all power and glory, for in Jesus Christ I became a visible God for you …. And your bliss will be without end, you will constantly yearn for Me and My presence and your desire will always be granted …. And what no eye has seen and no ear has heard, that is what I have prepared for those who love Me …. because My infinite love is for you, My children, for all eternity.

Amen

Bond with God guarantees ascent ….

B.D. 7964 from August 11th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

The human being on earth who walks his earthly path in constant contact with Me and whom I can therefore guide Myself, as it serves his soul best, will be able to record a tremendous ascent. It cannot be soon enough to establish the bond with Me, for his will will then have turned to Me of its own accord and given Me the right to look after him as My share, to send him strength and grace without My adversary being able to prevent this, who has now lost his right to this soul. Nevertheless, he does not cease again and again to influence the human being’s will in order to win him back. But every thought which now applies to Me gives Me the right to push it away from the human being. Once a being has freely decided in favour of Me I will no longer let it fall into My adversary’s hands, it just cannot be spared battles since these contribute towards the soul’s maturing and constantly push it towards Me anew so that My strength can take effect in it, for every bond with Me also signifies an overflow of My strength of love, it signifies constant ascent upwards. However, establishing the right bond with Me will always be a matter of the heart; this bond is not established by acknowledging and affirming with the mouth, which is easily possible if people are certainly taught about a God and creator in their earliest youth and they only accept these teachings intellectually, they don’t contradict them and thus believe in Him. Then the heart has not yet spoken, and only the heart’s speech is valid before Me. Then the prayers will only be spoken with the lips but they will not be prayers in spirit and in truth, they will not be addressed to Me from within and therefore I will not hear them either …. The right bond only takes place when the heart speaks, when the human being’s thoughts seek Me and want to communicate with Me, when the human being speaks to Me like a child to its father, when it knows no inhibitions yet surrenders to Me in profound humility that I may look after and guide it, that I may take care of it forever and ever …. The right bond with Me is truly already an entry into the spiritual kingdom, for the human being’s thoughts wander into a completely different realm than the one where he physically lives …. And he acknowledges Me or he would not unite with Me in thought or prayer. And thus he has also passed the test of will, for once the being fell away from Me because it did not want to acknowledge Me as its God and creator …. The only thing that matters in earthly life is that the being returns to Me again of its own free will …. And the sooner it acknowledges Me the sooner I can also have a direct effect on the human being, give him strength of resistance against My adversary and support him in every way so that he covers the path of ascent …. that the soul works on itself with success, that it spiritualizes all immature substances still clinging to it so that it departs from earth clear and loud and can then be permeated by light and strength in the kingdom of the beyond. It needs strength for this purification process, for My adversary will constantly try to prevent it from living in My will, but this strength also constantly flows to it, or it can flow to it, because it repeatedly unites with Me and thereby can receive strength …. because this strength is divine strength of love which will also stimulate it into constant activity of love, and because then its transformation into love will also take place, which signifies spiritual perfection, spiritual progress, for the purpose of which the human being lives on earth. However, this spiritual progress is impossible without the influx of strength from Me, and the influx of strength necessitates a close bond with Me …. therefore you can consider yourselves blessed if you acknowledge Me in your heart and send your thoughts to Me …. For I seize you and then will never let you fall again, for then your return to Me is guaranteed, your free will has decided in favour of Me and you will never leave Me again, you are Mine and will remain so forever ….

Amen

About the "working of the spirit" ….

B.D. 7965 from August 12th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

I want to be recognized as the origin of the word which comes to you from above through the working of My spirit …. And therefore you should mention the unusual process through which you came into possession of extensive spiritual knowledge without external earthly aids …. I want you humans to know that I speak to you directly in intimate contact if certain prerequisites are present: a living faith in Me, which was gained through a life of love, and a conscious inward listening, that you open your spiritual ear to the address which now happens through My spirit, through My share, which expresses itself in you, which instructs you and initiates you into the deepest secrets …. that My word thus resounds in you, that you hear Me Myself in you …. This process is only believable to a few people, otherwise all would accept My word …. And thus “My spirit works”, i.e., it expresses itself to you …. he “introduces you to the truth ….” You who now hear My word, who receive it directly from Me, you can now pass it on again, and anyone who listens to it or reads it in intimate union with Me will also feel the strength of My word, he will be able to register increasing maturity of soul as an ‘effect of My word’, for I was also able to address him, albeit indirectly through My messengers. But anyone who pays no attention to this word, who denies Me Myself as its origin, does not recognize the ‘working of the spirit’, he knows nothing of the fact that “I Myself work in him who believes ….” I have “promised” you humans My spirit, I have told you that I will remain with you until the end of the world …. For I Myself am the word, and thus I am always with those in the word who want to hear Me and believe. The belief that I express Myself, that I speak to you directly, is what I require in order to be able to speak to you …. And I ask you: Where is this faith still to be found? Are not the doubts far greater that you have about ‘My word’? …. and yet I have told you: “out of your body will flow rivers of living water ….” My word will resound in you yourselves, the influx of My divine light of love will fill your heart when you yourselves prepare it to be the receptacle of the divine spirit …. For the spiritual spark in you is My share, and thus it also knows everything and can therefore also instruct you from within …. And this influx of the divine spirit into an open vessel, into a person’s heart, is the ‘working of God in the human being’, Who can then divest Himself of that which serves you for perfection, and thus you cannot go astray either if you have entered into this intimate bond with Me, so that I can address you as evidence of My presence. Then you will not hear human words but God’s word …. Who works in you who believe …. And then you must also stand in truth, because only pure truth can come forth from Me …. And if I then give you the task to spread My word because people need the pure truth, then I therefore want fellow human beings to also experience the effect of My word on their souls, because My word is blessed with My strength and because all of you humans receive something delicious which cannot be replaced by anything, for it is a direct gift of My love, I Myself lean down to you and address you, directly or indirectly …. but it is always My word, My address, which you hear when you accept the gift of grace offered to you …. And truly, your soul will experience great blessings, it will mature, for the strength of My word will make the ascent to the height easy for it and it will reach its aim …. it will unite with Me still on earth and be able to enter the kingdom of light and bliss ….

Amen

Paradise state on new earth ….

B.D. 7966 from August 13th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

I want to establish a new kingdom, a kingdom where I alone rule, where My adversary is eliminated for a long time, where there is peace and order again, where only love rules and thus I Myself can be with people because their state of love allows it and because they have passed their test of faith and will and now belong to Me for time and eternity. And in this kingdom there will be order again for a long time, for love is the fundamental principle of divine order, and where love reigns everything will also take place in accordance with My will …. And thus the spiritual substances, which are still bound in form, will also develop more quickly, because they feel love around them and therefore also give up their resistance more quickly in order to reach the final transformation as a human being. And this kingdom will therefore be on the new earth when My work of transformation has taken place, when all creations of the old earth have been dissolved and changed into new creations through My will, when the paradise of the new earth has been created and will receive My own who have endured until the end. The process of the destruction of the old earth will still be apparent to them because I want them to proclaim My might and glory to their descendants, and because they themselves shall then be blessed by being transferred to the new earth as the reward for all suffering they previously had to endure for the sake of their faith. And they will forget all suffering and hardship in view of the splendour and glory which will shine towards them on the new earth in all works of creation …. And I Myself will be in the midst of My own because their great love allows this …. A new period of redemption begins, for much of the spiritual is still unredeemed and still bound in those creations …. And even if people are no longer under the spell of evil, the following human generations will nevertheless also have to pass their test of will on earth, only My adversary cannot have an effect on them as long as love is highly developed in people, thus as long as their hearts beat towards Me in the divine redeemer Jesus Christ and therefore they do not sin either but are redeemed from their original sin through Jesus Christ …. And love is exceedingly strong in people who will animate the new earth in the beginning, and it will burn ever more fiercely towards Me because I Myself can delight them with My presence and will instruct them at all times through My messengers of light with whom people will have direct contact and therefore also be exceedingly blissful. Earth’s paradise is ushering in a new time, for the spiritual and earthly turning point has been accomplished …. And it will be a time of peace where there will be no enmity, neither with human beings nor with the animal world. Everything will live in harmony with each other and hardship and misery will be eliminated, there will be no illness, and even death will only be a painless transition into the spiritual kingdom; the soul will only change its abode, yet without suffering and fear, for it has lived a life in and with God and will now enter My kingdom, it will discard its earthly body in order to be able to dwell freely and exhilarated wherever it wants …. But always in the kingdom of light and bliss …. And this blissful time lies ahead of you, and all of you can be candidates and belong to My own who are allowed to inhabit paradise on earth, only you have to stand firm in the last battle of faith, you have to persevere until the end …. And truly, your lot in the paradise of the new earth will be a glorious one, for I Myself am with those who remain faithful to Me, and My nearness is your bliss ….

Amen

Radiance of the divine light of love into mature vessels ….

B.D. 7967 from August 14th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

My flow of love-light flows to all beings which open themselves and have also attained the maturity that they can accept the flow of light and strength within themselves without being consumed by it. Hence it is always beings of light which accept light and strength from Me in order to pass on light and strength, for immature spiritual beings deny access to the light and strength from Me. But every being can spiritualize itself and make itself capable of being permeated by My flow of love, and this is the task of people on earth who, at the beginning of their embodiment, do not yet possess the degree of maturity to be able to receive My light and My strength in abundance. However, to receive light and strength from Me means bliss, and I want to prepare this bliss for all people who walk the earth …. I want to constantly feed them with My flow of love light, just as all spiritual beings full of light are constantly flooded and are therefore blissfully happy …. Yet I usually encounter resistance …. the being which walks across the earth embodied as a human being still defends itself against Me, and forcibly it cannot be flooded by My light of love …. Yet rays are sent to it which sometimes also have the strength to touch the human being’s heart, and then the resistance diminishes …. Receivers of light and strength are sent to him …. that is, beings of light from the spiritual kingdom or also on earth …. will send them these rays in the form of My word, which will be brought close to people in some way and can also have an effect on them if the resistance is not too great. And these rays can cause the human being to open himself voluntarily …. that he desires to enter My flow of love, that he feels My word as light and strength and desires to be addressed by Me more often …. And then My flow of love light can flow through him, then he opens himself and works on himself and also makes himself receptive …. it accepts light and strength from Me directly, and it has now become, as it were, a reservoir of light and strength which can let its contents flow out again. And every human heart can receive light and strength from Me which merely desires it and gives up its previous defensive position …. which therefore now voluntarily enters My flow of love and opens its heart to receive Me …. And this is your earthly life task, for you are weak, lightless beings when you enter the earth as a human being, but the light and strength is at your unlimited disposal …. Therefore you will be instructed again and again by the will of the one Who called you into life …. You are inspired to believe in a supremely perfect being to Whom you owe your existence, and you are requested to establish contact with this being so that It can make you happy, because you emerged from the love of that perfect being …. And once this has been presented to you it is up to you, up to your will, whether you want to let yourselves be bestowed by Me, whether you want to accept light and strength from Me, for you must now voluntarily open your heart and let yourselves be illuminated; you must accept the love which wants to flow through you again, as it was in the beginning. My flow of love constantly seeks vessels into which it can flow, but these vessels must also be so prepared, i.e., the human being himself must have ignited the love within himself which displaces everything impure and which allows the human being to mature so that he can now receive My illumination of love and his soul will now spiritualize itself …. that I can now fill it with light and strength and that it now serves Me again as a station of strength and light which receives and sends out as it is My will, so that everything is flooded with light which is still in the dark area but gives up its inner defence as soon as the rays of light beneficially touch it. Light and strength is bliss, which you once forfeited and which you must voluntarily accept again in order to attain bliss …. And you will always be allowed to receive the light and strength you desire …. For My flow of love-light will constantly flow out into infinity, and all beingness can shape itself as a receiving vessel if it spiritualizes itself, if it offers no resistance as soon as it is touched by rays of love …. And My infinite love radiates everything because it wants to win you back and this is only possible if you also accept My love, if you open yourselves in free will and My love can then become effective on you ….

Amen

Purpose of need: Bonding with God ….

B.D. 7968 from August 15th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

You will be guided through all hardship and visibly experience My love and care. Yet hardship is indispensable and you are approaching a time which will be difficult for everyone who does not devote himself to Me with complete faith, who does not entrust himself to Me and appeal for My help. Yet My own will not feel this time of adversity so much because I take care of them …. And again and again I announce the adversity to you, for it is therefore inevitable because I want to offer you another opportunity where you can turn to Me and call upon Me, for this bond with Me is your salvation; both earthly as well as spiritually it will only be a blessing for you if you remember your God and creator and try to approach Him. As long as you walk alone, without Me, on this earth, every day is useless for your salvation of soul, for your spiritual development …. You will not take a single step forward, and your earthly life may have been an idle run for you if you don’t enter into a bond with Me before your death and then your soul will be saved from darkness when you lose your physical life and enter the kingdom of the beyond. And there are only a few who find their way to Me even in a time of good living conditions …. Only a great adversity can bring it about that people remember Me and call to Me …. And this adversity comes for the sake of it, after all, it is far more bearable than the great spiritual adversity which awaits those who do not find their way to Me. But My own can confidently look forward to the coming time, for the bond with Me will lift them above all difficulties, and every thought they turn to Me will give them strength, and they will also work for Me by trying to point their fellow human beings to the saviour and helper from every adversity …. Who lets suffering come upon you humans, Who can truly also turn it away from you …. But you must confess Him …. you must always know that every turn towards Me is a turning away from My adversary …. And this is the only thing I want to achieve, and thus if adversity drives you towards Me then it was truly a blessing for you, for then you will also be released from the enemy of your souls who will bring far greater adversity upon you if you don’t detach yourselves from him. And detachment from him can only be possible by turning to Me, because your will alone is decisive as to who may now take possession of you. But I can help you out of every adversity and visibly grant you My help …. Therefore nevertheless believe in a God of love, even if this God allows suffering and adversity …. For I am only ever concerned about your salvation, about the life of the soul which lasts forever and does not end with the death of the body. And so that the soul does not need to suffer in eternity it must sometimes bear increased suffering on earth but it will always be a blessing for it if it contributes towards entering into a bond with Me, its God and creator of eternity. I want to win you as long as you still live on earth, and I also have to use means which seem cruel and unkind to you but which only ever aim for your salvation, your bliss in the spiritual kingdom …. Just always trustingly pray to Me and truly, you will be guided through all adversities of body and soul, you will feel that your father cares for you, that He will give you what you need earthly and spiritually and that you will also recognize His presence in every event …. For I will always be with My own, with those who turn their thoughts towards Me, who remain united with Me in love and prayer ….

Amen

The redeeming power of love ….

B.D. 7969 from August 16th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Every human being contributes to the redemption of the spiritual who lives in love, for he will also constantly radiate love to his surroundings, be it fellow human beings or also the spiritual which is still bound in form, which feels every irradiation of love beneficially and also matures because it gives up resistance, which love always achieves. For love is a power that does not remain without effect. Love awakens reciprocal love, and people and animals will gladly join those who radiate love ….. It can therefore also be deliberate missionary work …. that is, conscious vineyard work …. can only be carried out successfully if love is the impetus for it, otherwise the ‘redeeming’ of souls is called into question, because love alone has redeeming strength. People must recognize the spiritual hardship and want to remedy it; they must know that help must be brought to the souls which are still unredeemed, be it on earth or in the beyond, and love must impel them to carry out conscious redemptive work …. Then their work in the vineyard of the lord will also be blessed. But if a person lives in love, if his way of life is a continuous activity of love, then he unconsciously does redeeming work; he spiritualizes himself, thus all his spiritual substances, and places his soul into the state of maturity which is the purpose and aim of his earthly life …. But he also contributes towards the spiritual maturing of those who dwell in his surroundings, for they, too, cannot resist the irradiation of love in the long run if an open counteraction is not recognizable through people who are in bondage to God’s adversary. But even these will withdraw because they are no match for the weapon of love …. Yet where love determines a person’s way of life there can never be a relapse into the abyss, for love urges towards eternal love, love is the divine in the human being which can never remain without effect and this effect always signifies redemption of the immature spiritual, irrespective of whether it is on and in the human being himself or also in his surroundings, which also includes souls in the beyond which, attracted by the strength of love, stay close to him and likewise feel the flow of love as strength. A person who lives in love is recognizable to those souls through his light radiation, and he is therefore constantly surrounded by such souls who want to escape from darkness …. This will also makes the light of love effective, they receive strength which again helps them to also be active on other souls by also seeking to snatch them from darkness …. What they feel charitably they also want to impart to other souls who are in the same need …. And thus a redeemer’s work is unconsciously done only through a life of love …. However, it is good if people know about this and also consciously want to participate in this redeemer’s work by giving themselves to their God and father and appeal to Him for His blessing …. that they also offer themselves to Him to be active in His vineyard according to His will. And a life of love will also result in increased spiritual knowledge for the human being, his thinking will be guided correctly, the human being will take care of those who are still in the bonds of sin, who have little or no faith and whose hardship he can recognize. If he now consciously places himself at God’s service that he is active as a proclaimer of the gospel, of the divine teaching of love, then God’s blessing will also be assured to him, he will fulfil his earthly task, he will do successful work as a labourer in God’s vineyard, and this success will always be in accordance with the degree of love which fills him, because love is the redeeming strength, because love also banishes the adversary who flees it, because it is divine emanation ….

Amen

Catastrophe …. Antichrist …. Battle of faith …. End ….

B.D. 7970 from August 18th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

What will still take place before the end of the earth can only ever be announced as something extremely difficult and sorrowful for humanity, for God’s voice will sound everywhere, albeit in entirely different ways …. For where His Words of love are ignored He will manifest Himself more clearly; there will be suffering and adversity in all places, accidents and catastrophes will alternate with natural occurrences, where the elements threaten and destroy life …. And all this is God’s working or His permission to disturb people and make them aware of the real purpose of their earthly lives. And where people are united with Him the hardship will be easier to bear, since He will not abandon His Own even though they are in the midst of these happenings and unable to avoid the immense adversity during the last days before the end.

And you all only need to take notice of what happens around you and in the world, for they are visible warning signs and always recognisable to the believer as God’s intervention or permission, because you were foretold that you will have to endure severe hardship and affliction before the end. All the signs which were predicted for the end are recognisable; yet you humans always want to see it in the distant future, you don’t want to believe that the time of the end has come. But you have also been told that the time will be shortened for the sake of those who want to believe and stand firm. And thus everything will happen in very quick succession …. The affliction and hardship, the battle of faith and the Antichrist’s fury …. which will emerge only too clearly, and this alone should make the end time credible to you. For the people who are enslaved by him will surpass each other in evilness, hatred, lies and vindictiveness, craving for power and tyrannies will clearly identify his actions, and people will support him because they agree with his will and ruthlessly proceed against their fellow human beings who still believe and want to remain faithful to God.

And these will receive exceptional protection and strength, for God will stay with His Own and lead them through all adversity and difficulties. And blessed is he who recognises the time and entrusts himself to the only One, Who can protect him in every hardship …. blessed is he who believes …. blessed is he who lets Him speak to him and constantly receives strength from Him …. For even this difficult time will come to an end and the fate of those who endure to the end will be a blissful one. Sooner or later the power of God’s adversary will be defeated, then he and his followers will be bound and there will be peace again on earth …. But not on this earth anymore because its end has come according to the law of eternity …. But it will emerge anew through God’s might, and people who endure to the end will be relocated to the paradise of the new earth, because they believe in their God and Father Who will save them from utmost hardship and affliction …. For the time is fulfilled and the end comes as it is announced in Word and Scripture ….

Amen

The opponent seeks to extinguish the light ….

B.D. 7971 from August 19th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

No matter what My adversary may devise against you, as long as you are active on My behalf neither cunning nor trickery on his part will have any effect, for My strength is at your disposal, My love is with you and helps you in every affliction of body and soul. And this is your weapon, that your will is meant for Me, that you want to serve Me and that you take refuge in Me in prayer, that you maintain the bond with Me which ensures the constant influx of My strength and which gives Me the right to push My adversary away from you …. For he flees the light which shines from Me. Therefore he seeks to extinguish it, he seeks to hinder My bearers of light in their mission, he seeks to take action against the light and to dim it wherever he can. Yet the light itself reveals his nature, and therefore he is also always to be recognized …. even though he appears under a mask, even though he tries to cloak himself in the garment of an angel of light. But the light itself will strip him of his mask and he will have to flee, because the light from Me has great strength …. I look for vessels for Myself into which I can pour Myself out, into which I can pour My spirit for the salvation of humanity. And I protect these vessels from being used by My adversary, so that he too can empty himself and thus, as it were, the spiritual knowledge which emanates from Me is mixed with an adversary’s influx …. I protect My spiritual knowledge and keep it pure and unadulterated as long as a human being serves Me as an instrument and thus as a receptacle for My flow of spirit …. And I know that humanity is in great spiritual distress because the pure truth is withheld from it, because My adversary is at work everywhere where people do not seriously strive towards Me, and because people therefore no longer take the right path which is shown to them by the truth …. My adversary prevents the knowledge of Jesus Christ and His act of salvation …. He prevents the knowledge of Him Who said: “I am the way, the truth and the life ….” And I want to bring this truth back to people, I want to show them the way so that they may attain life.… And thus I must also first give them the knowledge of Jesus Christ, in Whom I Myself accomplished the act of Salvation …. And this knowledge comes to you from above, I Myself convey it to earth, I speak to you always out of My love which wants to lead you to eternal life. My adversary, however, will lose you if I have won you for Me …. thus he will strive to keep you away from the divine redeemer Jesus Christ, he will try to undermine the truth, he will try to extinguish all light, because the light emanates from Me and leads to Me again. But My adversary is the prince of darkness, and he will always spread darkness wherever it is only possible due to the will of such people who themselves are indifferent towards the truth. Insofar as they desire the truth he cannot penetrate, for the light will shine brightly and chase him away. But if people themselves are lukewarm in their striving for the truth, then he has an easy game and will plunge them into ever greater darkness …. And therefore you should be vigilant and know that you will constantly be harassed by My adversary; but you should also know that you will be protected from all error if only you accept Me Myself …. as the eternal truth …. and if you want to serve Me as bearers of light, which I need on earth in order to be able to break through the darkness which the adversary has spread across the earth …. For those who serve Me are also cared for and protected by their father of the house …. And truly, My power is greater than the power of him who also once came forth from Me but gave up the light himself and sought darkness …. He may well tempt you humans, but he cannot force you …. He can go against the light but he cannot extinguish it because it emanates from Me and because he himself flees the light …. And the servants who want to serve Me recognize him and his activity, and they will deny him access because they themselves stand in the light and have bond with Me, as the eternal light. And he cannot break through this because he will be recognized before he can seriously work ….

Amen

Decision by predestined guidance or experience ….

B.D. 7972 from August 20th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Know that every earthly or spiritual experience affecting your life is intended or permitted by Me. For every person’s course of life is always determined by Me in accordance with his spiritual development. And thus everything can be in your best interest, you don’t have to suffer if you accept everything from My hand and even humbly accept your burdens, for your correct attitude towards Me will also allow you to assess every event correctly and your soul will mature. The only purpose of earthly life is for your soul to mature …. And all earthly events, be they suffering or joy, will approach you in line with this purpose …. Any event is able to lead you closer to Me if it is your free will to find union with Me.

But My adversary also tries to win you for himself, and thus you will be faced by temptations on his part which I allow because he still has a claim on you, and he will equally influence you but never be able to force you, instead it remains up to your free will to what extent you allow yourselves to be influenced by him. Hence you make your own decision by consciously turning either to Me or to him. And you can make this decision in every situation; every experience, every stroke of fate, every pleasure and every affliction can impel you to make this decision. And if you know that nothing happens without My will or permission, then soon nothing will be able to worry you either …. for as soon as you turn your sights and thoughts towards Me, call Me to your side or commend yourselves to Me in prayer, you will mature spiritually and have achieved an advantage for your soul again.

All these are also tests of faith which you have to pass …. for My adversary will do anything to separate you from Me, to lessen or destroy your faith in a God and Father Who is always willing to lovingly help His children. He will always want to darken your spirit, he will try to spread darkness across you so that you no longer recognise Me as your loving Father of eternity …. And this is why he particularly tries to take precedence during misfortunes with the intention of causing reluctance and ill feeling in you …. And then you have to adamantly resist and know that everything I allow to come over you is beneficial for you, and that you only have to turn to Me in firm faith in order to banish even the most arduous adversity by handing everything over to Me, Who will truly help you to get out of every adversity. For My constant concern is only ever your return to Me ….

I want to tie you to Myself and not lose you, and therefore I will also always prove My love, and this love shall never be doubted by you. You have already travelled a long path which brought you ever closer to Me …. The last short stretch of the way requires great willpower by you, because you consciously have to turn to Me, to the pinnacle, whereas before you were drawn by My love …. But this love gives you even more, it does everything in order to guarantee your return to Me ….

Just grant Me your free will, strive towards Me in free will, don’t let yourselves be enticed by the world which is My adversary’s tool to win you over …. Believe in Me and My love, and in your heart long for the Father, and call upon Me in every adversity of body and soul …. And truly, every experience will only ever serve your ascent, for everything is based on My love and wisdom whatever you might encounter …. And rely on My love and My might, for I Am always willing to help if only you would call upon Me in your heart ….

Amen

Address to doubting "servants of God" ….

B.D. 7973 from August 21st 1961, taken from Book No. 83

“Out of your body will flow rivers of living water ….” This promise of Mine will be fulfilled when you receive My word, when the water of life flows to you from above, when I can speak to you directly and My spirit can pour into you …. For then you will truly become a source of life from which your fellow human beings can draw in order to refresh and strengthen their souls for their pilgrimage on earth. You humans usually have no understanding for this purely spiritual process which, however, is earthly-provable through the spiritual knowledge I was able to convey to earth through a suitable instrument …. For it was gained without external aids, it is the result of inner instruction through the spirit …. It is the evidence of the bond of the spiritual spark resting in the human being as My share with the father-spirit from eternity …. It is My word which sounds out in direct address to you humans who open your hearts and desire to be addressed by Me …. Yet how little do you humans know about this outpouring of the spirit; how little do you believe that ‘My word’ is conveyed to you when My messengers bring it to you, when they ask you to listen to a delicious spiritual gift which can only come forth from Me Myself and be offered to you …. How little do you yourselves do to let the flow of grace of My love flow into you, for you don’t believe in such a visible expression on My part, and you don’t understand the words of scripture either, otherwise it should be easy for you to believe …. But you entrench yourselves behind the words of scripture and deny that I express Myself again and again, you believe that My activity is concluded with the words of scripture …. you believe that you do not need any further word from Me …. yes, you presume to dictate to Me whether I may express Myself to people on earth …. you deny any revelations, although I Myself have said: “He who loves Me and keeps My commandments is the one I love …. to him I will reveal Myself ….” How do you read the scriptures which testify of Me? You certainly read the letter but you lack the spirit which introduces you to the truth …. and yet you feel called to instruct your fellow human beings. You also feel called to warn your fellow human beings to listen to Me Myself and My word when they are commanded to do so …. And you call yourselves ‘servants of God’ …. For these I address who want to portray My working as the working of My adversary and are themselves strongly under his influence …. For he who does not recognize Me is not Mine …. For My sheep recognize My voice and they follow it …. But again and again I will speak to people, again and again I will reveal Myself to people who believe in Me and desire to hear Me …. For it is the end time and My adversary works with cunning and force, and thus I will also work unusually for the blessing of humanity and alleviate or also remedy the great spiritual adversity where only the will is good, where only a heart opens and receives My gift of grace, and it will truly not be lost when the end has come ….

Amen

You will live forever ….

B.D. 7974 from August 24th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

You will live forever …. you will not lose this life anymore …. Is there a more enjoyable promise than that I want to give you eternal life and that you will thus be eternally happy? For life is blissfulness, because life is a state in freedom, light and strength, because ‘life’ is the state for which I have created you, which guarantees your perfection …. And this perfection will have been endeavoured towards by your own free will, otherwise no life would be possible, for prior to that you were in a state of death and only your free will was able to and can change this state of death into ‘life’ …. Furthermore, life means permanent union with Me, Who nourishes you with the necessary strength to live, which flows to you without restriction and will never again be limited …. Life is working and creating with Me and in My will …. and yet also in keeping with your will, for you have completely entered into My will because you are perfect, because you have become My images and will no longer think and want anything other than Myself and therefore you will also be incomparably happy.

And that is the final goal of the beings which once emerged from Me and My strength as living creations, which were indeed supremely perfect, since nothing imperfect can come forth from Me, but which voluntarily relinquished their perfection, fell away from Me and then had to travel an infinitely long path of development in order to achieve the highest level of perfection again, in order to thus return to Me, yet no longer as a ‘living creation’ but as ‘My child’, into which it will have voluntarily shaped itself through love …. which is indeed its fundamental substance because it came forth from My love, but which its free will had to arouse into the brightest of blazes …. but then eternal life in supreme happiness will also be guaranteed …. And this is the life I have promised you …. I Myself want to grant you this blissful life, and thus I will never cease in supporting you to achieve this said high degree of love, whenever it may be …. One day you will attain life and then never lose this life again …. This is truly the most glorious promise, for you can hope. You need not fear to be lost; you need not remain in the state of death forever, for I have told you ‘You will live forever ….’And My Word is truth …. only you yourselves determine the time when you will enter into life; you determine the time when you escape death, when you return to Me, unite with Me again and then also arrive at the life which lasts forever ….

And thus you can also endlessly prolong the state of death if you misuse your free will again, if you oppose My loving support which stimulates your love. And then you will prolong your state of misery too, for only life is happiness. Yet you have free will, and this prevents Me from giving you life against your will. For you have to attain perfection yourselves, which guarantees you life in eternity, otherwise you would eternally just remain My ‘living creations’, but the goal of becoming My ‘children’ requires striving for perfection in free will. As long as you humans are still in the state of death, as long as you lack light and strength because you lack realisation and the influx of My strength of love, you are also in a state of unkindness, for voluntarily practised love would also result in light and strength, and that also means an ‘awakening to life’. And then you will no longer be able to fall back into the state of death, because you will be enlightened and also recognise the purpose of your earthly life and consciously strive for it. And this is why love has to flare up in you if you want to attain the life which lasts forever. And I, the Eternal Love, will leave no stone unturned in order to lead you to this life, for I can only unite Myself with life but never with death …. and therefore I will first awaken the dead to life, which My infinite love will indeed achieve sooner or later ….

Amen

Desire of truth …. Light is knowledge ….

B.D. 7975 from August 25th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

The will for truth must be present in you and then you will also recognize truth as such, you will also be able to distinguish error from truth and you will not run the risk of moving into erroneous thinking. Yet you humans are indifferent to the truth, you thoughtlessly accept everything that is offered to you and you don’t check whether spiritual knowledge has been brought to you which deviates from the truth …. because you are simply indifferent to it and because you don’t believe yourselves capable of checking it either. But you will have this ability when you desire the truth, for then I Myself will protect you …. as the eternal truth …. truly protect you from wrong thinking and I guide your thoughts correctly. Hence My adversary has a great advantage because you indifferently allow him to work and he will assert his error, he will confuse people’s thinking and thus spread ever greater darkness over them because they don’t defend themselves against it. And almost every person values his own intellect too highly, he believes that he can judge spiritual knowledge intellectually and thus determine its value. And the intellect is dominated by My adversary if the person does not consciously hand himself over to Me and My support, if he does not request My assistance in the examination of spiritual possessions. And only rarely does a person take the path to Me in order to attain the truth, and therefore only pure truth is rarely to be found or it is not recognized as such …. Again and again I give you the reason, again and again I say that it is up to you alone whether you think correctly, and again and again I show you the path to truth …. the path to Me, Who is the eternal truth Myself …. You all have free will, and you all have the opportunity to receive the most diverse spiritual knowledge. But you must tell yourselves that there can only be one truth, and you must strive to attain this truth. And truly, you will be allowed to take possession of it if you approach Me Myself for it. If you desire to penetrate knowledge which you cannot gain intellectually …. if you desire clarification about your relationship with Me, your God and creator, about your purpose of earthly existence …. if you desire the right knowledge, then it will also come to you. A bright light will shine for you and chase away the darkness in which you have walked until now …. Yet you must desire it, otherwise I will withhold Myself, since I will not force your free will to strive towards Me through light …. But if you push yourselves inwardly towards Me I will give you the light because I don’t want you to live in darkness, because I want to radiate My light into your hearts which, however, you must open yourselves in order to become enlightened. Yet only truth is light, only truth can reveal to you everything that is still hidden from you, because you once gave the light to Me yourselves …. And only truth is the path that leads back to Me, to the light of eternity …. To desire truth therefore means to open oneself in free will so that the light can shine into the heart and now the human being will be enlightened from within …. And then he will no longer be able to think wrongly, he will recognize all error as originating from the adversary, he will now also know about everything, about all correlations, about Me Myself as the most perfect being …. he will attain the realization which the being once voluntarily relinquished when it rejected My radiation of light …. It only has to desire light again of its own free will, i.e. the truth from Me, and I Myself will convey it to it, it will emerge from the darkness of night, for the light will shine for it and it will be blissfully happy again, as it was in the beginning ….

Light beings create forms for the spiritual ….

B.D. 7976 from August 26th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

You, too, will be granted the bliss of creation when you use the strength and light …. the power and wisdom …. in My will again, when you will be perfect and able to work like Me in free will, which is always also Mine …. Then love will drive you to creations of all kinds, for then you will also create forms in your love for the still immature spiritual in which it can mature, and you will find your beatitude in it yourselves …. For you yourselves emerged from My creative power as My images …. Your nature corresponded to My fundamental nature, all divine characteristics and abilities were within you and you were also able to use them in the same way as Me; you were able to create and shape yourselves until you fell away from Me, until the moment when you freely rejected My strength of love and thereby deprived yourselves of all abilities and were therefore no longer able to create because My strength of love no longer shone through you or because you yourselves no longer wanted to accept it and thus became powerless. But this state of imperfection will not last forever, for My aim is and remains to restore you to your original state, which, however, has to be achieved by your free will alone. My overwhelming love for you, which only ever wants your bliss, guarantees that you will receive My support in every way. And as soon as you have entered the original state again My strength of love will flow through you as in the beginning, and you will use it again in wisdom, because you have now become love again and therefore also want to help the still unredeemed to attain the same beatitude which will now be granted to you …. And you will constantly be creatively active …. Whatever you set your mind to you will also be able to accomplish, and creating and shaping will make you immeasurably happy. For as a human being you don’t know what abilities are within you which only lie idle because you lack the love which gives you strength and wisdom …. But one day you will know everything, and you will create the suitable cover for every particle of soul, you will lovingly accept everything that still has to travel the path through the creations of earth …. You will also recognize its degree of maturity and your creations will correspond to it, which will therefore also make you immeasurably happy because you recognize their purpose and support the spiritual in its upward development through your will of love, which is active in creating and shaping. As long as you live on earth as a human being you lack this degree of maturity, that you recognize everything, that you know about every work of creation, about its nature, composition and purposefulness …. Yet once you have this realization you will already have reached a high degree of maturity yourselves, where you may behold miracles upon miracles and even move in the midst of these miracles …. And all these miraculous works are My thoughts and ideas which I let become form …. always for the happiness of the spiritual in every degree of maturity …. only that once these forms envelop the spiritual, which is to mature in them, and that then the spiritual itself can create such forms and its strength and wisdom can now express itself in creations of the most versatile kind. And only then will you pay far more attention to all creations, only then will you recognize My great love and wisdom, and your love for Me will become ever more powerful, which means a constant increase in your strength and therefore also an increase in your bliss. And you will behold things which you would never dream of, for My glories will have no end, which are intended for all those who love Me …. and I will make My creatures eternally happy …. they shall create and shape with Me in My kingdom, they shall enter the father’s inheritance as My children …. they shall be immeasurably happy in and with Me ….

Amen

Serious warning against psychic receptions ….

B.D. 7977 from August 27th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

You should not trouble yourselves with doubts, but you should also know that you only receive pure truth from Me by merely wanting your thoughts to be correct and true. And you will always receive assurance that I do not contradict Myself, that therefore the spiritual information which originates from Me, which was conveyed to those of you through the ‘working of My spirit’ who allow My activity in you, must always tally. However, since My adversary’s influence confused people’s thinking, since falsehood and error are far more likely to be accepted by people, it has also become necessary to convey the pure truth from above time and again, for truth does not remain pure for long among people, for unkindness reigns and this darkens the spirit, so that it is easy for My adversary to proceed against the truth and to intersperse it with error, without this being recognised by people. Light is all you humans need in order to find and travel the path to Me and to ascend …. In the darkness you take wrong paths which lead off course, and since it is My adversary’s goal and intention to alienate you from Me and to gain you for himself, he will eagerly strive to confuse your thinking, and he will do so under the mask of an angel of light. And the danger that he will be heeded is particularly great during the time of the end, because people are lacking love and therefore possess no power of judgment either …. They fall prey to error and then he will have won them over. For this reason I keep making you aware of the cover under which he appears. For he is full of cunning and trickery, he tries to slip in where he can show himself as an angel of light, where people look for contact with the spiritual kingdom …. but where the preconditions are missing which guarantee a genuinely pure spiritual bond with the world of light …. However, wherever the preconditions exist he is unable to intervene, and only then will the truth be guaranteed, because all beings of light work on My instructions and can only distribute pure truth which they receive from Me …. Yet can you humans know with absolute certainty that you demonstrate the preconditions which guarantee you this bond with the world of light? And can you therefore be certain that the spiritual realm conveys the full truth to you? Can you do this where it concerns psychic transmissions from the spiritual kingdom? Do you know whether it is impossible for the adversary to intervene if a person as a ‘shell’ forfeits his own will? Only a high degree of maturity will result in your protection by the world of light …. but in view of the great risk the beings of light will always try to influence people such that they allow the ‘working of the spirit’ in them in a conscious state, that they shape themselves into a receiving vessel for the divine spirit …. that they improve themselves in order to grant the beings of light the undisputable right to repel everything unspiritual from them and to only let the pure truth flow to them, which they receive from Me, so that they can instruct you humans if it is your will and you fulfil all preconditions ….

You humans must remember that the time of the end has come, that you don’t have much time left, and that you should therefore accomplish the work of improving your soul with increased vigour …. And you must know that My adversary will use all his power to try to prevent this endeavour …. Thus he will try this where he is not recognised, where a human being’s conscious will does not offer him opposition …. He has great power and makes use of it when psychic receptions are desired whose truthfulness cannot be verified by you humans …. Be warned, for the point is not that it would be impossible for a being of light to express itself through a medium, but the point is that you humans are incapable of judging whether a being of light expresses itself or whether the adversary’s clever disguise enables him to spread darkness …. And this darkness can have a disastrous effect on you; misguided teachings can be conveyed to you from which you can only detach yourselves with difficulty …. But a misguided teaching will always obstruct the path to Me, it will obscure the light in you or extinguish it entirely, and the path to Me will be prolonged by you …. I want to caution you of this, for there is not much time left, you are near the end, and once a misguided teaching has taken hold in you it will take quite a while before you recognise it as such, and this time might no longer be at your disposal …. The possibility that you are offered truth certainly exists, but you are unable to judge whether it is offered to you and consequently there is always the risk that your spirit will become darkened if I don’t seriously warn and admonish you only to believe those Words which are conveyed to you through My spirit …. for it will guide you into all truth, as I have promised you ….

Amen

Urgency of spreading the divine word ….

B.D. 7978 from August 28th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

And this is the lord’s will that His word be spread …. for just as He once sent His disciples out into the world, so shall you …. His last disciples in the last days …. shall see to it that His word is spread throughout the world, that it also resounds to human hearts which hunger and thirst for it, which have a desire to be addressed by God Himself. And even if people who are not able to hear His voice directly host you …. whether they doubt the word or deny its divine origin …. for they do not know about the spiritual hardship …. about the dense darkness which lies spread over the earth and which can only be chased away by a ray of light from above if only this light is not resisted. World events alone should make humanity pay attention, and they should seriously strive for another aim than just worldly power, earthly goods, honour and fame. They should realize that everything is transient, that no-one can secure earthly goods for himself if it is in God’s will to take them away from him. The human being is powerless in the face of God’s will or permission, and this should make him think, he should incline towards God as the creator of heaven and earth, from Whom he himself also originated, and appeal to Him for His guidance that he may reach his aim on earth. For every thinking human being would have to regard his existence on earth as purposeful and seek clarification about this purpose …. And since only partial knowledge can ever be offered to him on his part, he should turn to God Himself in thought, to the creator Who gave him life …. And he should ask Him for right thinking and realization, for right guidance on all his paths through life …. always with the will to reach his aim for the purpose of which he dwells on earth. And so that people’s thoughts will be guided to turn to God Himself, God addresses people Himself …. And you, who receive His word directly, who receive it again indirectly through His messengers, you should pass this word on to your fellow human beings, for the word which comes to you directly from above is well-suited to stimulate people’s thinking who are only of good will …. For there are many people who are not satisfied with the spiritual knowledge they have been offered up to now, of whose truth they are not fully convinced and cannot be either, because the adversary’s influence from God has caused many lies and errors to obscure the pure truth and a willing soul therefore rejects it because it cannot inwardly acknowledge this spiritual knowledge. But these people should also be addressed and spiritual knowledge should be offered to them in an unadulterated form ….. And how would this be possible other than that the truth is directly conveyed to earth by God and spread by those who want to serve God? And to this work He calls the disciples in the last days, for there is not much time left …. Everything shall still be done that is within the power of those who have voluntarily offered themselves to Him for service …. Only His word should ever be mentioned, which provides information about all questions that move a thinking person of good will …. And they will truly experience much blessing, a light will be brought into the darkness …. People will be able to believe who want to believe. And the pure gospel, which will reach them through God’s greater than great love and grace, will become a lifeline for them when the great tribulation comes upon the earth, which precedes the last end. Then people shall take the path to the one Who alone can save them from all adversity …. And then they will also pray to Him in spirit and in truth because they will have recognized Him in His word ….

Amen

Notice of the time of tribulation …. Power of the word ….

B.D. 7979 from August 30th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

A time will come when you will understand why I take such unusual care of you that I speak to you directly, even though your spiritual state has not yet reached the maturity which could justify a direct address. You will experience unusual adversity, My adversary will press you unusually and you will have to accept unusual strength in order to be able to withstand …. And you will be able to draw this strength from My word …. And then the visible influx of My strength will be a strengthening for you, because your faith will also become ever more alive when you experience the evidence of My presence through My word. Time is pressing, and therefore you will also be able to notice an increasing adversity caused by strokes of fate and disasters of all kinds, and people will desperately ask themselves where all this is supposed to lead …. And then you, who hear Me Myself, will be able to convey My word to them, and it will also be accepted by those who have not yet completely fallen prey to My adversary …. And then you will know why I address you in such an unusual way, for then you will recognize the truth of all this, and you will also recognize My love for you humans who will only stay on earth for a short time and shall pass their test …. The world still stands between you and Me, your eyes are still turned towards the world and it is difficult for you to change and turn towards Me …. But you will very soon be able to recognize the worthlessness and impermanence of this world, you will very soon be startled out of your rest and suddenly stand before an approaching disaster …. And you will look for a way out, and blessed is he who finds the way out in Me Myself, blessed is he who turns to Me, entrusts himself to Me and now no longer walks alone …. For he will be guided through, often in the most wonderful way, because there is only one Who can help in every situation in life, and because this one only needs to be called upon in order to also be able to prove Himself in a helping way. And this will be his greatest gain, that he has found Me Myself, for then nothing will need to frighten him anymore, he will know that he is safe in My fatherly arms, and these will also spread to all who turn their thoughts to Me in every adversity. Once you have recognized that a father addresses you, you will also press towards the father, and only My word can grant you this realization. My word alone will strengthen your faith in a God and creator Who wants to be your father and to Whom you only need to give your love in order to be eternally saved …. For your earthly life will pass, but for the sake of earthly existence alone you did not enter embodiment as a human being …. Your soul shall only pass through and prove itself before it enters the kingdom which is its true home …. And if you know this, you will also strive to enter this home in the highest degree of maturity …. And therefore I address you again and again because the time is coming to an end which is set for the earth and all its creations …. Time is hastening and you must make increased efforts in order to still complete yourselves; but you can also do this, for My gift of grace …. My word from above …. is such an unusual aid, it has such an unusual effect of strength, that you can perfect yourselves in a short time if only you let its strength flow into your heart …. if you read My word attentively and now also live accordingly …. if only you make an effort to fulfil My will, if you believe in Me and give Me your love …. Then you truly need not fear an end, no matter when it may come …. For then you will give yourselves to Me, and truly, My love and might will protect you, and you need not fear death, for you will live forever, as I have promised you ….

Amen

God's strength can also grant physical recovery ….

B.D. 7980 from August 31th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

You are truly offered something precious when I talk to you directly, and you will always be able to draw strength by just consciously opening yourselves to My emanation of love if you want to receive the ray of strength from Me, if you desire to be filled with strength from Me …. if you want your hunger and thirst to be stilled by the nourishment you receive from Me Myself. However, you are as yet unable to recognise the real value of My gifts of grace …. even though you willingly listen to Me, even though you belong to those who want to be nourished and have their thirst quenched by Me. Were you able to assess My greater than great love for you which constantly wants to make you happy and grant you gifts, you would also know that I only offer you gifts which have an extremely helpful effect on you …. you would know that I only offer you what will help you to attain perfection, to fully mature your souls, and you would only ever want that My gifts of love for you will not be limited. You would consciously open yourselves at any time in order to receive My gifts of grace, and you would become aware of an abundance of strength constantly flowing to you if only you have the will to receive it. You merely require profound faith in order to also become physically healthy through the strength of My Word ….

But you do not possess this strong faith as yet and thus you must only ever strive to raise your degree of love …. When you are entirely permeated by love then you will only have space in your heart for My strength of love, then everything else will be pushed away and you will be so close to Me that you will feel My presence which will also let you become aware of the flow of strength …. And then your body and soul will recover …. Open yourselves again and again to the strength of love from Me …. keep turning your thoughts to Me and establish the connection with Me which facilitates an influx of My strength of love in you …. and know that you receive the evidence of My presence when I can speak to you. And don’t undo this bond again but let it become increasingly more tender and, truly, you will feel it yourselves and no longer need to fear that you will lack strength …. Just believe, and I will not let your faith be destroyed …. open your heart and accept Me in it, and My presence will make you aware of the strength that pours into you, you will hear My Word and recognise it as an incredible gift of grace …. You will distinctly feel the strength of My Word, you will psychologically mature, and this raised state of maturity will also express itself in an increasingly stronger faith, and a strong faith can achieve anything, it can also help the body to get healthy because nothing is impossible for someone who believes in Me, in My love and in My might ….

Amen

Mentally directing the will towards God ….

B.D. 7981 from September 1st 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Every thought which turns to Me is an acknowledgment that you belong to Me, a flickering spark of love striving towards the fiery ocean of Eternal Love. It demonstrates that the test of will of acknowledging Me again as God and Creator, as it was in the beginning, has been passed …. I will not leave you in eternity, even if you yourselves voluntarily keep away from Me …. For you belong to Me, you are a tiny spark of My strength of love which I emanated when I gave you life. And one day this strength of love will flow back to its original source again, because this is the law of eternity …. But I care that your free will …. the mark of divinity …. is your reason for returning to Me. And it makes Me indescribably happy when this change of will, after your past apostasy from Me, has been accomplished, when you as a human being …. during the stage of free will …. turn your thoughts to Me …. Then I will take hold of you and draw you continuously closer to Me, and I have the right to do so because you will be trying to unite with Me again of your own free will ….

You don’t realise how much strength flows to you when your thoughts apply to Me, for every thought is a bond with Me which enables the influx of strength; a contact which enables Me to permeate you with My strength of love, which spiritualises you and makes you the blissful beings again that you once had been. You have the option to receive My guaranteed influx of strength at any time …. you have a very reliable way to receive My strength by merely directing your thoughts to Me …. For you only turn to a Being Which you acknowledge, and I only want this acknowledgment from you in order to provide for you again as before, in order to permeate you again with My strength of love. When you think of Me you consciously open your heart …. you surrender every resistance that had kept you apart from Me, and then My love can take effect on you again, which ignites in you like a spark of fire and also lets your love flare up for Me. Hence it incorporates an immense blessing if you lift your thoughts up to Me time and again ….

Admittedly, the world will often prevent you from doing so, and anyone who is subject to the world will only rarely and with difficulty turn to Me, if at all …. But once you have voluntarily granted Me the right to take possession of you again because you have voluntarily accomplished to break away from My adversary then you can also be sure that I will enter your thoughts time and again, and it will be increasingly possible for you to mentally stay in contact with Me …. until you can always sense My presence close to you, until you no longer start anything without Me. And then you will consciously fulfil the purpose of your earthly existence, then you will already be in close contact with Me even though you still live on earth, and I will not leave you again, I will always walk by your side, I will take abode in your heart and you will feel My presence and be very happy ….

Therefore, always stay in contact with Me even if the world will not yet release you completely …. As long as you still have to live in the material world you will also have to fight against its temptations and attractions; but once you have established the connection from you to Me, the material world can no longer harm you, then you will look for Me even more, because you will not be able to find true happiness in the material world after all but only ever in your heartfelt contact with Me …. And then My love will draw you to Me, then I will gladden you with My presence …. For then your will belongs to Me, as it has turned to Me entirely willingly, and you will have become and will stay My Own for all eternity ….

Amen

Thoughts of an end are beneficial ….

B.D. 7982 from September 2nd 1961, taken from Book No. 83

Every thought of an imminent end can only be beneficial for your soul if you believe in its survival after death. For then you will live consciously after all, you will also think about many things and no longer take earthly plans and interests seriously, even if you are not yet fully convinced that an end will come. But the thought of it will be encouraged in you on the part of the world of light, for the mental influence emanates from their side, because you are entrusted to them for protection and they constantly strive for you and your soul’s salvation. Hence the thought current emanates from them and again and again it will be conveyed to you …. And now your free will decides how you adjust yourselves to it …. Thus it can be to your spiritual advantage, but you can also reject every such thought if you are still too addicted to the world and all thoughts about an end are only a hindrance to your striving for the world. Then you will rather listen to the whispers of the dark beings, you will pay homage to the world and do everything to create or increase physical comfort for yourselves …. For then you will not believe in the soul’s continuation of life after death either, you will only live for the sake of earthly life, and the beings of light will have little success because you will reject the flow of thoughts flowing to you, because you will close your heart to all good forces and their admonitions and warnings. And then you will have to experience everything you gladly reject. You will be disappointed by the world, you will have to recognize its fickleness, or else you will receive so abundantly from God’s adversary that you will truly already have lost all reward which you have acquired on earth or which is demanded by God’s adversary as a price for your soul and which he will willingly pay to you …. by giving you abundant earthly goods, prestige and power …. Don’t demand such earthly possessions so that you won’t fall prey to Him but recognize the time and gratefully accept all hardship and worries, for they prove to you that the father’s love is still struggling for your souls, that He will not give you up and that He wants to win you and your thoughts before the end comes. For this reason He announces the end to you, and if you now think about it your soul will only benefit from it, for you will kill the worldly desire, you will nevertheless work on your soul while thinking about the end, and you will pray to God that He may give you strength to fulfil the purpose of earthly life, and then you will also be saved from eternal ruin. As soon as thoughts of the end come to you …. do not chase them away but deal with them, and only remember that there is no end for your soul …. and try to create the state for it that you don’t need to shy away from an end either. And if you also find the path to God through such thoughts, for they are truly a blessing for you, and you can also trustingly hand yourselves over to the beings of light who look after you and worry about your soul’s salvation …. And they will now always have an effect on your thoughts and also remind you again and again during this time of the near end …. They will never present the world to you in an appealing way, for the world is the realm of the prince of darkness, from which the beings of light want to keep you back and whose work they try to invalidate precisely with the reference to the near end, which can only ever be given to you mentally. And as difficult as these thoughts may be for you …. They are only favourable for your souls, and therefore don’t reject them but let them have an effect on you, for one day you will be grateful for every warning cry that wrested you from the adversary’s hands …. one day you will know that you were lovingly cared for so as not to be lost again for an infinitely long time ….

Amen

The spirit of God must be able to work …. Servants ….

B.D. 7983 from September 3rd 1961, taken from Book No. 83

I accept all those who offer themselves to Me for service, because I still need many labourers in My vineyard, because there is great spiritual need and because I can only ever address those through you humans who are not yet in the right relationship with Me …. because they only ever have to be addressed through human mouths through which I can then express Myself. But you must know one thing, that the labourers in My vineyard have to fulfil completely different tasks, that I assign each individual his activity and that this activity will always concern his fellow human being’s salvation of soul, thus it should stimulate or awaken faith and love and determine his fellow human beings to work on their souls themselves …. Thus every person who strives spiritually himself and wants to induce his fellow human being to lead the same way of life will also be allowed to feel like a vineyard labourer, for he will always be active in My will and be concerned about his fellow human being’s salvation of soul, and he will always be allowed to be certain of My blessing that I will support him in his endeavour, that I will place the right thoughts into his heart and that he will therefore now also speak according to My will, even if this happens in the form of conversations or debates in the spiritual sphere …. For I will always acknowledge and bless a person’s good will to work for Me and My kingdom, to serve Me and to bring souls to Me. Thus the person’s innermost will is always decisive as to whether I accept him as a servant in My vineyard …. And I recognize this, even if it is hidden from his fellow human being …. And in accordance with it I will now also distribute My instructions which every one of My servants feels in his heart, which move him mentally and which he will then also carry out because he feels inwardly urged to do so. And you humans can believe that I have many such silent vineyard labourers who often achieve greater success than those you regard as ‘servants of God’ and who are more outwardly prominent and pose as My representatives on earth and whose vineyard work is obvious but does not result in great spiritual success. As soon as they are in heartfelt contact with Me they will also be guided by My spirit and do the right vineyard work for Me, but this heartfelt bond with Me will always be the decisive factor, never the external position of a person who is considered a vineyard labourer. For this intimate bond allows My working of the spirit and My spirit must be able to work if the right vineyard work is to be done. And now you will also understand that a certain degree of maturity is a prerequisite in order to be able to accept a person as a servant in My vineyard, for he must be able to hear My instructions within himself in order to also be able to carry them out. Yet anyone who voluntarily offers himself to Me for service has also already reached this degree of maturity or he would not be inwardly impelled to serve Me …. And so now I can place him in the place where he can work successfully …. I need all of you, for the spiritual need is great. But you should pay attention to My instructions and not approach work which has not been assigned to you. You should let yourselves be guided by Me, for as soon as there is still a degree of ambition or wanting to stand out in you, you are not yet doing Me a proper service …. Then you can even endanger a work, because you can also be rejected in the right realization of an unspirit which then seeks to express itself …. Those people who want to be true servants to Me must be extremely humble and completely subordinate to My will, for only then will they follow My guidance and only then will they also successfully work in the vineyard. For then I Myself can work in them, and then My working can also take on such forms that they achieve extraordinary things, that they are quite obviously recognizable as My labourers in the vineyard …. And then they can also fulfil spiritual missions which will result in greatest blessings …. Then they will be active as My rightful representatives on earth through whom I can then also obviously work ….

Amen
