Awakening the divine spiritual spark will guarantee a change in character ….

B.D. 7984 from September 4th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

You once deprived yourselves of your divinity by changing your fundamental nature into the opposite, you were no longer beings of light but had become beings of darkness, for you were devoid of all love because you had rejected My love which wanted to permeate you and make you happy for all eternity …. And in this ungodliness, in this totally opposite nature to Mine, you were distant from Me, you utterly reversed your nature and could therefore no longer be close to Me because you would have ceased to exist in My light of love, it would have consumed you completely …. However, it was not My will that the being which had once emerged from My strength of love should vanish, I only wanted its return to Me, but this necessitated a change in nature which reduced its distance from Me until, finally, this distance was completely overcome by the fact that the being had adopted its original state again …. until it had totally become love again and My love was able to permeate it again as before …. This transformation into love required of Me an act of mercy and love: I had to place a tiny spark of My eternal love into you because you were utterly devoid of love and therefore also incapable of changing yourselves and your nature …. An exceedingly long and painful process of return had almost broken your past opposition to Me, yet then you entered into a state in which you received free will again, which prior to that had been bound …. And in this state of free will …. as a human being …. the re-transformation into love should take place again, which would have been utterly impossible had a tiny spark of love not laid dormant in you, which is a gift of grace I place into every person’s heart and which characterises him as a divine living creation as soon as he voluntarily kindles the spark of love to flare up into a bright flame …. This work has to be accomplished by the human being himself. And he can certainly do it precisely because the divine spark of love lies dormant in him. This spark of love is a divine part, it is a minute spark of My eternal spirit of love which is inseparably connected to Me, which also incessantly strives back to the eternal Father-Spirit but which allows the human being complete freedom as to whether he yields to it or whether he smothers the small spark with his anti-divine nature on account of his connection with My adversary which he is not prepared to give up.

You are all able to love but whether you are willing is left up to you …. And although the spiritual spark in you, seeing it is part of Me, has tremendous strength, it will not force you to change your nature but it will make it easier, it is not an impossibility that this change of nature into love can occur during your short lifetime on earth. The connection with Me is in place, it just has to be striven for by yourselves for you to feel its effect when My love can shine into you again …. A bond between the spiritual spark in you and the Father-Spirit must be established, then the change of nature will irrevocably take place and you will become the happiest beings again, as you were in the beginning. But without this spiritual spark in you, which is My share, you would be hopelessly lost …. You are able to love, you have the ability to feel and to emanate love …. you are not entirely devoid of love if you don’t resist this spirit of love in you, if you don’t push towards My adversary who will always prevent you from carrying out loving acts but who cannot stop you if you kindle the light in you, if you pay attention to the gentle voice within and comply with it, which will always stimulate you to be lovingly active. For My spiritual spark is truly mighty and full of strength because it is part of Me …. It will strengthen even the slightest will towards it and there is nothing My adversary can do to stop it, for he cannot fight against Me since I Am, after all, inside of you …. I just don’t force you if you oppose Me of your own free will. And this divine spark of spirit, which is part of Me, is also the guarantee that you can change, for it is strength from Me which enables you to do anything you seriously strive for. And in order for you to muster this serious will the divine Redeemer will always help you, He merely wants to be acknowledged and asked to strengthen your will …. For He and I are one; you once rejected Me, you refused to acknowledge Me as your God and Creator and followed the one who drew you into the abyss …. And he will be in control of you until you appeal to Me for help and thus recognise and acknowledge Me in Jesus Christ …. And truly, the adversary’s power will be broken if you confront him with My name; your will shall be strengthened and your desire for union with Me will constantly grow stronger …. The spiritual spark in you will seriously strive towards the bond with the eternal Father-Spirit, you will give in to the inner urge and will be impelled into kind-hearted activity because I Myself can once again permeate you with My love …. And your nature will again take on a quality which resembles My fundamental nature …. It transforms itself into love and will inseparably unite with Me, then you will never leave Me again; the child will have returned to the Father from Whom it once originated ….

Amen

Dissolution of the earth is God's act of love ….

B.D. 7985 from September 6th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

My love alone is also the reason for the last work of destruction on this earth. You may well object that a God Who wants to be recognized as ‘creator’ will not destroy His own works of creation …. Yet I know and have known since eternity why I let material creations come into being, and I also know when they have fulfilled their purpose, when they have to be dissolved again for the sake of the spiritual substances bound in them …. I know the final purpose of everything I created …. and the final purpose has again only been determined by My greater than great love …. And it will always be My love’s reason, whatever happens on earth and in the whole universe …. Admittedly, you humans cannot overlook this because you don’t know the correlations of all this, because you lack the understanding for it as long as your soul has not reached a certain degree of maturity. But I could never do otherwise than work with love and bring My wise plans to fruition …. For I have set Myself the aim of the beatification of all beingness which has emerged from My love. Thus My love is the reason even if you humans are unable to recognize it. Yet you are still limited in your thinking and understanding, you are mostly still in a state of wretchedness, and this also signifies a lack of light …. You cannot recognize anything and you don’t know about My eternal plan of salvation. You only see with the eyes of a still immature human being, and you also compare Me with yourselves in your limitation. Thus you judge Me and My reign and activity according to human judgement …. And thus a work of destruction, such as will take place at the end of the earth, is also an act of unkindness for you, because then you yourselves will lose your life as well as everything of substance which testifies to life in creation …. For you don’t know that every work of creation contains fallen spiritual substances which shall develop upwards …. You don’t know that every destruction of such works of creation, which originate from My will, signifies an act of redemption for that bound spiritual substance, a new stage in the ascent development which has to take place according to eternal law …. which again is only based on My great love. But as soon as this knowledge can be conveyed to you, as soon as you receive My direct instructions from above or are indirectly instructed by My messengers, you will already have reached a certain degree of maturity of your souls, and then you will have understanding for My eternal plan of salvation, and you will also look forward to the end without fear, you will no longer regard a ‘destruction’ of earth as an act of unkindness …. You will know My plan and My aim and be in such close contact with Me that you will be able to recognize My love in everything that happens. You will reciprocate My love and therefore also endure it and confess Me before the world when this confession is demanded of you. And therefore I instruct you again and again and inform you about My nature …. For this nature of Mine is misrepresented to you if you portray Me as a God of wrath and vengeance, as a God of heartlessness, as a punishing judge or overly strict lord Whom you should or must fear because you do not recognize Him as a being Who is love in Himself …. And this is why I repeatedly bring the truth to you humans, for you live in darkness, you cannot distinguish truth from error, and you are far more likely to accept error than the truth which originates from Me. And therefore a purification must also take place on earth, which started with the purification of the word which you have represented as ‘My word’ until now and which can no longer be acknowledged as ‘My’ word, for it has lost its claim to be regarded as My word due to constant contamination. As long as you humans are unable to recognize your God and creator as an exceedingly loving father you are not in the right knowledge about Him, about His nature, His rule and activity and about the connection of all events which are only intended to achieve the highest aim of shaping you, His living creations, into His ‘children’ …. For love is My fundamental nature, you also emerged from love, thus you were originally of the same substance, and one day love will also bring about the union with Me again, which will make you the most blissful beings again, as you were in the beginning ….

Amen

Love accomplished the work of redemption ….

B.D. 7986 from September 7th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

The love of Jesus, the man, for His fellow human beings was so great that it moved Him to take the most severe suffering upon Himself in order to help them because He recognized their great spiritual hardship, their wretchedness and their helplessness to free themselves from My adversary through their own strength …. The love of the man Jesus gave Him brightest light about people’s state, about its cause and only possibility of salvation …. Love therefore sacrificed Itself for their salvation, for He also recognized by virtue of His love the mission He Himself had taken on …. He knew that He Himself had offered Me to descend to earth, to take abode in a human shell and to shape it such that it could serve Me as a shell …. the great spirit of infinity, Which was unlimited yet could fully radiate through a human shell. And thus I Myself became a human being, i.e. My strength of love, My fundamental substance, completely filled a human form which contained a pure soul from above …. a soul from the kingdom of light which had offered itself to accomplish a work of atonement for the great original sin of the fallen spirits, as My justice demanded, in order to be able to receive the fallen beings into My kingdom again. The man Jesus was this soul of light, He was the human form which I chose for My abode and in which I Myself accomplished the work of redemption for you …. The man Jesus had to endure immense suffering during His life on earth because His soul felt the darkness in which it had to dwell and because He crowned His path of suffering with His death on the cross, which was immeasurably painful and brought freedom to the people of the past, the present and the future from the hands of the power which was hostile towards Me and had once dragged the spiritual realm down to the abyss …. But He must be acknowledged as the redeemer Jesus Christ, in Whom the eternal deity Himself accomplished the work of redemption for the great guilt of sin. For only this recognition brings him the solution from My adversary …. The recognition of Jesus as the cover of Myself also means for the human being to become free from the former guilt. And this recognition has to be alive, not just dead words uttered by the mouth but convinced faith that He and I became one …. that Jesus is God, that I Myself was in the man Jesus and thus I Myself redeemed people from sin and death. In order to attain this living, i.e. convinced faith, you must live in love …. You must follow the man Jesus, Whose life was an unceasing activity of love …. And if only you are of will, He will also strengthen this will so that you will profess Him with conviction and thereby also be allowed to make use of the blessings of the act of salvation, which will ensure your complete redemption. You should know about the great significance of His descent, about His mission and about the mystery of My human manifestation in Him …. You should know that He was only the visible cover for Me Myself, Who, as an infinite spirit, could not be visible to you and therefore chose a cover for Myself which I could fully radiate through, so that you can now behold Me if you acknowledge My act of salvation and want to accept the sacrifice of the man Jesus …. if you yourselves desire the redemption of your original sin and therefore take refuge under the cross with your guilt. And it will truly be taken from you, you will be free and able to enter My kingdom of light and bliss again, and then you will be able to behold Me Myself in Him …. in Jesus Christ, in Whom I Myself died for you on the cross …. For it was love which descended to earth in Jesus, it was love which filled Him and which made the most difficult sacrifice for you humans, and this love was I Myself ….

Amen
