Priority of vineyard work ….
B.D. 8625 from September 24th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
When you feel inwardly driven to be active for Me and My kingdom then you can already register this as My work in you, then I Myself speak to you through the heart and urge you to comply with My request. Then you therefore also know that My will is expressed in you and you can now be active without hesitation and certain of My blessing. And your doing will always correspond to My will. Therefore just be untiringly active; do what you are able to do, and leave everything else to Me. Again and again I tell you that it is exceedingly necessary to supply fellowmen with truth, and therefore I will also bless all efforts and works, which are undertaken for the spreading of truth. Because I know it who is still receptive and willing to receive for it, and truth is also to be supplied to these out of Me. Only your will must be prepared for it, because I force no man to be active for Me, because such compulsion cannot have a beneficial effect, because love must always be the cause for activity for Me, but love tolerates no compulsion. But you will not lack evidence of My silent cooperation, and you will be happy to be allowed to serve Me. I see the great spiritual misery; I see the darkness in which men walk; I see the spiritual low, which has its cause in the lack of love of men, and it is urgently necessary that the gospel of love is again brought to men, although it will often be preached to deaf ears, but it must be supplied to men in all purity; it must again go out from Me directly and take the way to men, if there is still to be a possibility that their hearts are touched. Men must be given knowledge of their earth life assignment; they must be instructed in all truth, if success is still to be achieved at all. And even if there are only few who take the words to heart, who hear (open) their ears, but these few are rescued from a renewed walk through the creations of earth, and what that means, that only I know …. But exactly for that reason My fatherly care is meant for men, and I exhaust every possibility, which still can bring souls back to Me before the end. But I always need willing servants on earth for this, who are active as mediators, who accept the assignment from Me to carry the gospel out into the world, which is supplied to them by Me directly. You therefore, you stand in My service …. do you know what that means? That your God and creator, your father from eternity, has chosen you to work together with Him according to His will …. That is why you are not allowed to let yourselves be held back from this work, you should always regard it as a matter of priority and be certain that I will take care of all your earthly worries and that no earthly disadvantage will arise for you either, for I am a good father of the house Whose servants truly need not suffer any hardship if they only conscientiously carry out the work He assigns to them. Only you humans can help your fellow human beings, for an unusual address, which I could certainly also address to people, would only force them to believe, and this would be futile …. But I nevertheless address people unusually when My word is conveyed to them, when they listen to it. And if they listen to it willingly then it will also touch them unusually and cause them to think about it …. Nevertheless the freedom of will has to be left to them, but what can only be done to snatch men from the darkness of spirit and to stimulate them to love work, that I will still do before the end, and I want to bless those who offer themselves to Me for service, who are willing to do vineyard work and therefore to help in the redemption of those who have not yet completely fallen prey to My opponent …. Because it is not much longer time …._>Amen

People lack love and faith ….
B.D. 8626 from September 25th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
People keep distancing themselves from Me ever further, they want to believe less and less, for since they don’t live a life of love they cannot attain a living faith either and a dead faith is completely worthless, because they will easily relinquish it completely when they have to profess whether they are for or against Me. For people will have to make this decision, irrespective of whether it will be demanded of them by the earthly authorities or as a result of harsh strokes of fate, when only the right decision can provide them with help in earthly adversity. Without faith they are lost, for then they belong to My adversary, who wants to destroy humanity’s every faith in a God and Creator. Only a life of love will result in a living faith, and then there will be no further danger of falling prey to My adversary. For a living faith establishes the connection with Me and any hardship can be resolved because the human being believes in My power to do so, and also because he is convinced that My love will determine Me to help. Yet people who utterly lack faith in a Being Which is full of love, wisdom and power can be called poor and miserable. For even if they are quickly helped by My opponent in earthly calamities their souls will nevertheless be irrevocably lost, for they have abandoned all contact with Me and are therefore hopelessly subject to him. And many people will have to expect this destiny of being completely controlled by My adversary and will also have to share his fate at the end of the earth, so that they …. when he is placed in chains …. will be banished again into the creations of earth and must travel the path through these new creations once more.
Yet this happens in accordance with the will of every individual soul, and nothing can be done for their salvation other than to keep proclaiming the Gospel of love to people, to tell them what will await them if they live without love and therefore also without faith. Time and again people shall be called; time and again they shall be invited to turn their back on the world and to step into spiritual spheres …. Time and again they shall be reminded of the purpose of their earthly life so that they cannot claim to have been entirely without knowledge. Admittedly, they will pay no credence to your words but they shall not be left without warning either, for I will continue to cross their path and by means of misfortunes try to change their thinking …. since the possibility of changing their will still remains until their death and no opportunity shall be missed. And thus there will be a never-ending struggle for every soul My adversary wants to keep. And if you, My servants on earth, only succeed in persuading your fellow human beings to believe in a God and Creator from Whose Power they originated …. if you only succeed in motivating them to carry out deeds of love, then there is also the possibility that they will learn to gain faith, that they will seriously think about it …. especially when they have to recognise the fleeting nature of earthly things and begin to long for everlasting possessions.
Every change of mind can denote salvation for these human beings, and a person can still change his mind until he dies. This is why you, My assistants, should leave no stone unturned in order to awaken in people the belief in a loving Power Which wants to regain all people for Itself …. You shall also inform them of the fact that you are in direct contact with this Power and that It conveys comprehensive spiritual knowledge to you which clarifies the human being’s real purpose of existence. There is always the possibility that a person will respond and listen to you, and in that case he is already saved for sure, for as soon as I Am able to speak to him Myself he will feel affected by it and form an opinion …. This is why you are repeatedly summoned to work diligently; this is why I won’t stop seeking to attract the love of souls which are still distant from Me. This is why people often suffer great earthly hardship in order to motivate them into performing kind-hearted actions for their fellow human beings. And then it is not hopeless, for every deed of love connects the human being with Me and at the same time disconnects him from My adversary. If only people would believe that only love can deliver them from the enemy of their souls …. that love would also grant them realisation and could gain them a living faith, even in the Redeemer Jesus Christ. And a living faith in Him signifies definite deliverance from sin and death …. Love, however, has grown cold and therefore faith has also vanished, and no person can become blessed without love and faith, without love and faith My adversary is still dominating his soul and it cannot enter the life which lasts forever ….
Amen

Total devotion to God ….
B.D. 8627 from September 26th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
Just always entrust yourselves to Me and so make Me your guide, your constant companion, who directs you and determines you to all thinking and doing. And truly, your earth life will be beneficial for yourselves and also for your fellow human beings. Because then My will will always have an effect in you, because you subordinate your will to Mine. That is why the complete devotion to Me is also the surest guarantee that you reach your perfection, because then all resistance in you is broken; voluntarily you acknowledge Me again, and nothing now stands in the way of the union, because a complete devotion to Me is not to be thought without love towards Me and because love in you will now also not remain inactive, because your earth change will now be an effect in love. The complete devotion to Me cannot take place as long as self-love still prevails in you, because then you still allow yourselves to be valid, and your nature will show arrogance, while the devotion to Me is an act of humility and your self-love has already changed to unselfish neighbourly love. You will also only ever hand yourselves over to Me when you have complete trust in Me, when you have already recognized Me as a being Which is love, wisdom and strength in Itself. Then you will enter into the relationship of a child to the father of your own accord …. You re-establish the original relationship, and therefore you will also reach happiness again, because you fulfil the law of eternal order; you have become love again; you can receive My illumination of love and now return as My children into your father house. Again and again I woo your love, your complete trust, your complete devotion to Me. And that is why I reveal Myself to you in My nature …. You are to be truthfully informed about My nature, because only when you can measure My endless love, only when you know that it is always and forever meant for you, because you have emerged out of My love, you will understand that I long for you, and when you believe in this great love of Mine, you will also return it, because love awakens counter love. But since you as man are still of darkened spirit, you often still stand in erroneous thinking …. You fear Me, Who comes towards you with all love; you do not let yourselves be addressed by Me, because you fear My severity, because you do not feel as children of a father, who can always trust in the love of the father and are allowed to flee to Him in all troubles. You have been given a wrong image of Me, in that I was certainly portrayed to you as powerful and righteous but too little mention was made of My endless love …. and therefore you lack the trust of a child in the father which, however, the father will never disappoint. And in your spiritual darkness you often go so far that you would like to free yourselves from the thought of a God and creator in order to be relieved of all responsibility …. And you will always be strengthened by My adversary, for he will want to deprive you of all faith in Me, and if you are therefore without love yourselves then you will also be unable to believe in a being Which is love in Itself …. But you can believe that I touch you again and again to awaken love in you, because I want to prepare happiness for you, which you already had to do without for eternal times. But I cannot act against the law of order; I cannot make you happy as long as you resist Me, as long as you do not return My love. Because so long you are outside of My love current. Every resistance makes My love radiation ineffective, and only when you have again become love, you can feel the happiness of My love radiation. But then you will eternally no longer let go of Me, as also I no longer give you, if I have once won you for Me. And once I also succeed, once you will take the way to Me of your own accord, and I will stretch out the hands towards you, which you will reach for to no longer let go of them, because your true home is the kingdom of light and happiness, your father house is with Me, and you return guaranteed once again to your start …. (9/26/1963) That is why I will also repeatedly recite the gospel of love to you, and anyone who wants to serve Me on earth should also pass on the divine teaching of love again, he should encourage his fellow human being to love and set a good example for him himself, for as soon as love is kindled in a person’s heart he will also join Me, and then complete devotion to Me can also take place, which will secure him a blissful life for all eternity …._>Amen

Man shall come to the light of knowledge on earth ….
B.D. 8628 from September 27th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
When My spirit teaches you, areas are opened to you, which are inaccessible to your intellect alone …. Spiritual knowledge will be presented to you, knowledge which you are not able to explore intellectually, for which no evidence whatsoever can be given to you and which nevertheless corresponds to the fullest truth, because it originates from the eternal truth Itself …. with Him Who alone knows everything, Who can also guide the truth to where the prerequisites are present for the reception and the right evaluation of truth. Then you truly need no evidence at all, and yet the firm conviction is in you that you are instructed in truth, because it is unique spiritual material into whose possession you come, and because this spiritual material gives you brightest knowledge, because it lights a light in you, which touches you charitably …. Because you win something back again, what you once possessed, but had lost through your own fault. For once you knew everything, you could see through all connections, you stood in brightest light, in fullest knowledge of that what is connected with your being and with Me, your God and creator, and you were immeasurably happy in this light of knowledge …. You lost the light through your own fault and still enter earth as man in this lightless state. But you can again come to knowledge through your will when you let yourselves be taught by Me Myself, who alone can again give back to you the lost goods when you only earnestly desire them …. With increasing maturity of soul now also your knowledge grows, for you will then be guided by My spirit …. by Myself …. when love has already flared up in you, because wisdom …. a truthful knowledge …. takes its origin from love, because the fire of love radiates the light of wisdom. Therefore you cannot reach truthful knowledge when you are still without love. And would it still be supplied to you, you would have no understanding for it; you would hear empty words without all meaning. But without love you would also not be able to hear My voice of the spirit, and you therefore remained in spiritual darkness and will also remain in it so long until you awaken the spirit spark in you through love, which then connects with the father spirit from eternity and can now be addressed by Me Myself to your soul …. that the spirit in you imparts deep knowledge to you and you now also recognize what you were, what you are and what you are to become again. This realization alone now lets you live consciously and strive for perfection, for if you possess this realization then love has also already been kindled in you, otherwise it could not have been imparted to you …. And a loving person will now also always be allowed to increase his knowledge, for with every work of love it will become brighter in him, because this is the effect of the working of love, that the person also increases in wisdom …. of truthful knowledge which can only be conveyed to him from Me. Believe it that you cannot draw this wisdom from books …. Because without love it can never become spiritual property; without love also error is accepted far sooner than truth, and without love therefore spiritual darkness remains, and man cannot record any progress for his soul. But you men can speak of a great favour that you have the possibility to still come to a state of light on earth, if you consciously request this light for yourselves, if you establish the connection with Me through love work and now make it possible in free will that I can address you Myself, that I can supply you with truthful knowledge, which helps you to the change back of your being again into its original state, since it also stood in highest perfection in brightest light of knowledge …. And even if you enter earth as a human being in deepest spiritual darkness, you can still leave it in the most radiant light and enter the spiritual kingdom, where a blissful fate awaits you, where you are again what you were in the beginning: divine beings, which can work and create as children with Me and in My will. For all darkness, all imperfection, all imperfectness has been repelled by the soul, which consciously walked the path back to Me again and was able to find it easily because it was supplied with truth, which brightly illuminated the path for it, which leads back to Me, back into its father’s house …._>Amen

The great importance of a love life ….
B.D. 8629 from September 28th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
The ascent upwards has to be covered, and every step to perfection requires strength, which you can only ever receive from Me and the supply of which always earns you the bond with Me. As long as you go level ways, which need no effort at all, your earth life earns you no profit; you remain standing on the same degree of development, as you have started earth life. And this has been in vain for you …. Only when you yourselves are of the will to progress and you then spare no effort to reach the aim, earth life is of use for you, and you can reckon with complete success when you do not slacken to strive and to work on yourselves. But as long as you are powerless, you will not succeed, but you can at any time request power from Me or acquire power yourselves through love work, because love itself is power, and as soon as you are active in love, you also possess the power to ascend and to perfect yourselves. Because you will then always more shape yourselves to love, because every supply of power out of Me again drives you to love work, therefore every love work has an effect as increased degree of love. And you can increase this degree of love unlimitedly, because I also hand out power unlimitedly, if you just request it and make the supply possible through intimate union with Me. And so the one thing will now become understandable to you that love is everything. Without love you stand still, or you sink back to the deep, but love inspires you, and you can reach heights and secure your perfection, because through love you unite with Me as eternal love and now also fulfil your earth life purpose: the change back to that being, which you were in the beginning and which now can also again be unlimited happy. But without love this change back is impossible; without love you remain in the deep; you remain part of him who is without all love. But I have lowered a spark of love into your heart out of favour, as proof of My endless love towards you, so that you well can accomplish the work of reshaping, which however always requires your will, because you are in no way forced to it. And so therefore only one thing is important that you recognize the importance of a love life during your earth change …. Love is strength and will always help you to ascend …. You men lack love at the beginning of earth life, because it has changed once to I-love, but which is a wrongly directed love and therefore can never lead upwards …. However, if the divine spark of love planted in you is ignited, then you will be able to change your selfish love into unselfish neighbourly love in a short time, into selfless love which makes you happy and wants to give, which alone has the right to be called divine. And you men are able to let the love spark glow in you, if you are just also willing to it, because the will alone determines your doing and leaving during earth life. And according to this will also your life will bring ascent or decline. And that is why I try everything to make clear to you the great importance of your earth life as well as the fulfilment of My love commandments, so that you then consciously walk the path across earth …. so that you consciously strive towards your aim and reach perfection when you ask for strength or acquire it yourselves through loving activity …. The great importance of a life of love is not yet properly recognized by all of you humans, otherwise you would only ever make an effort to let yourselves be driven by the love within you to every action and thought …. You would practice love until you would no longer be able to live in any other way than in love, and then your purpose on earth will also have been achieved, for then you will be able to unite with Me again as the eternal love …. The radiated little spark of love has merged again with the fire of love; it has returned to its start. And I have achieved the aim I set Myself when I created the beings: that they have returned to Me as My ‘children’ and can now create and work in immeasurable bliss …._>Amen

Complete submission of the will to God's will ….
B.D. 8630 from September 29th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
If you completely subordinate your will to Mine then you also have to have My will in you, then you can only ever think right and do and speak what is My will …. So leave yourselves fully trusting to this assurance of Mine that you always only carry out My will, especially then when you want to be active for Me and My kingdom. The conscious subordination of your will under Mine is also the proof of your willingness to fully acknowledge Me again. You then give up all resistance and belong to Me again willfully, from Whom you also never could separate yourselves, because you are radiated power out of Me, which irrevocably has to return to Me as your origin. And when you are now no longer of will contrary to Me, then your earth walk will also again be an insertion into My legal order, and you then can also no longer sin, exactly because your will is now also Mine. And that is why you can also go your earth way without worry that it is wrongly directed, because My will is in you, without it being forcibly directed by Me. The devotion to Me, the conscious subordination of your will under Mine, is guarantee for the fulfilment of your earth life assignment, even when again and again temptations through My opponent approach you, which you will resist, because My will directs you in your thoughts and you recognize its goings-on, he therefore no longer has power over you. And so also no difficult situations in life are to frighten you anymore, because I will always know to remedy them, because you devote yourselves completely to Me and this devotion also secures My constant care for you, so that you no longer need to fear anything what also approaches you. And believe it that also your thoughts are always directed right, because the conscious devotion to Me also always lets the thoughts flow towards you so, as they are beneficial and are also recognized by you right. And you will always only take up the right thoughts and want to carry them out; you will inwardly resist every thought, which does not flow towards you out of Me, because that is the effect of your change of will …. the subordination of your will under Mine …. that now I Myself can work in you, that I give you the right thoughts and you are then always only active in My will. And this subordination of the will under Mine is prerequisite for the office of a light bearer, because he is to spread truth, and also this task demands a certain cleverness and caution (? objectivity); it cannot be carried out haphazardly …. My will must always be and remain decisive, but which now also certainly fulfils My servant and he is therefore also qualified for his office. I Myself want to have an effect in him and cannot use any resistance; My vineyard worker must be completely of the same will with Me, but what also guarantees his devotion to Me. But then you also need to fear no responsibility, because I carry this Myself for you, because you completely entrust yourselves to Me and have entered into My will. And so I will also again and again inwardly urge you to be active for Me and My kingdom, because this is so urgently necessary in the last time before the end, where mankind is in greatest danger to go down in darkness of spirit, and it can only be helped through supply of a bright shining light …. which it certainly can also still reject, but still brings rescue from the downfall in isolated cases. And this work for Me can only then be successful when a man puts himself completely into My service and gives up his own will to only be active in My will. But then he also does not need to fear that his wanting and doing could be wrong; he will always only act so as it corresponds to My will, because he has given up all resistance and I therefore can now work Myself in him. And his work will be successful; he will speak on My behalf; he will supply men with what I consider necessary for their salvation, and he will always be able to rely on My guidance, because I accept a will turned towards Me, because it also proves to Me the complete return of the being, which once separated from Me in free will …. His will is now Mine, although it is completely free and remains until all eternity …._>Amen

God knows from eternity the will of creatures ….
B.D. 8631 from September 30th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
I foresaw everything, I knew how both the spiritual beings would decide in free will, but how I also know about the will of men from eternity, how long it resists Me. But this knowledge did not prevent Me from carrying out the plan of deification of the beings created by Me, because I likewise foresaw that I would one day reach the aim which I set Myself when I created spiritual beings out of My love. But I will never touch the free will of My creatures, and whether they still keep away from Me for so long, because for Me there is no concept of time, because in eternity everything is just fleeting moments, what you men regard as periods of time of endless long duration …. But you men, who still keep away from Me, who are still imperfect, for you the concept of time still applies, and that is so long until you have perfected yourselves again, until you have changed to your original being, where all limitations are abolished. And so long your lot is also not to be called happiness, because in this time until your perfection you must suffer …. The aim, which I set for Me when I created you, must be reached by you yourselves; your free will must strive for it, and as this is often very long opposed to Me, I must use means, which lead to the giving up of resistance. And one such means is often suffering, suffering where the human being recognizes his own weakness and feels the need to lean on a being Which will help him …. Then an approach to Me comes about which then also leads to the aim: the complete union (with Me) …. The plan of deification of the beings created by Me also prevented Me from preventing the beings’ apostasy from Me, for this deification had to be accomplished by the being itself in free will, and since it relinquished its perfection, in which I had created the being, it had to accomplish a great work: to work itself up again from the abyss to the height, but to then reach the highest degree of perfection, which its will itself had to strive for …. thus it was not forced to do so by Me …. This freedom of will alone is the decisive thing, if I want to have completely free, most perfect beings next to Me, who now are and will remain true gods, because they have completely become My image …. I can do anything, there are no limits to My power, yet I Myself cannot violate the law of eternal order, which is founded on deepest love and most radiant wisdom …. I therefore could not create beings without free will, because I can only let perfection come into being, but free will belongs to perfection. And again these beings now also had to prove their divinity that they therefore also kept their perfection in free will and completely made My will their own and therefore through this also remained in perfection …. They therefore also had to have the possibility to direct their will wrongly, because they were no beings held under compulsion by Me …. And every being put out by Me had to make this decision, and I knew about the success of this test of will. But since nothing is impossible for Me I use the most different means, which My wisdom recognized as good and effective and which always only have My love as reason to make all My creatures immeasurably happy. So I also overlook the spiritual state of My creatures at any time and therefore also know when drastic changes or upheavals are necessary to again continue the faltering process of return. And time plays no role for Me because as soon as the being has reached the state of perfection where the concept of time no longer exists, it also sees this long time of ascent only as a short moment and is happy to have overcome it. It then also stands again in brightest knowledge, and therefore it also knows that the law of eternal order demands such a change back, if the being wants to reach the highest perfection …. the adoption as a child of God …. wants to reach. Then it will praise and glorify Me and give Me all its love, and then it will also again be unlimited happy, as it was in the beginning …._>Amen

"You must all be taught of God …."
B.D. 8632 from October 1st 1963, taken from Book No. 91
You must all be taught by God …. That is why I must be able to speak to you in order to then introduce you to areas which are foreign to you because you once left them voluntarily and had lost all knowledge. But this knowledge will never be withheld from you when you earnestly desire to possess it. Voluntarily you gave it away; voluntarily you must want to receive it again, and truly, you can then receive extensive knowledge directly from Me that all spiritual darkness disappears, that you recognize brightly and clearly what is the basis of your existence as man. To possess this knowledge is a precious gift of favour, which helps you to perfection, which is purpose and aim of your earth existence. It is certainly given to you as a proof of My exceedingly great love towards you, but you must accept it willingly and evaluate it, only then it will have a beneficial effect for you. But that it is a gift of your God and creator from eternity, your father, Who wants to make His children happy with it, you can also believe convinced and represent as truth. Because only pure truth can go out from Me, and as long as it remains unchanged, you men will walk in its light and therefore also go the right way, because truth must inevitably lead you towards Me, while every error leads into the abyss, towards that, from which you are to free yourselves on earth. You must all be taught by God …. i.e., that you must receive all truth and make yourselves receptive for it beforehand …. For the readiness to stand in truth is part of it that you also recognize it as truth, and I Myself can also only then work in you and address you Myself when you prove this readiness by making yourselves worthy to hear My address, be it directly or also in a transferred way …. But every supply of truth requires My direct work in you, because your spirit spark has to be illuminated, and through the conscious connection with Me you now also have to attain the understanding for the spiritual material, which is supplied to you from outside, but which has always been radiated by Me Myself. But you humans no longer possess the pure truth because it has been permeated by error due to My adversary’s influence, thus you are no longer ‘taught by God’, otherwise error would not be possible. You have no deeper knowledge or you are completely wrongly taught. Spiritual realms are closed to you because you don’t want to penetrate them …. and thus you move in spiritual darkness, and this to the detriment of your soul, which needs light in order to find the right path which leads upwards. Darkness always emanates from My adversary, whereas I always emanate light …. And so you could also judge yourselves in whose power you stand …. As long as you are completely unaware of your purpose and cause of existence, you are still spiritually darkened. But if light is given to you about it, then you will also possess all knowledge about the connections, about meaning and purpose of earth life and your task. As soon as you are therefore knowledgeable you stand in light, and then you have become free from the fetters of the adversary; you belong to Me, Who alone radiates light, and you are then also ‘taught by God’, Who alone can open spiritual areas to you. Light, however, will always make people happy, while darkness lays itself oppressively over the human being …. And every man should seek to light a light in himself, what he will always do when he practices love. For love is the first prerequisite that the light from above can shine into a person …. Love is the first prerequisite that I Myself instruct a man because then eternal love itself addresses the love spark in man, his spirit, and can now also instruct him. And love will want to give itself away; it will constantly hand out gifts of favour, which are always only to be accepted willingly and thankfully to have an effect for the greatest blessing of men. Because what comes from Me must always have a beneficial effect, and this gift is offered to every man. But no-one is forced to accept it; the free will of man is always decisive, why also the light cannot shine where the will resists it. And whether also My love is exceedingly great towards you, My creatures, you who walk over earth as man, so I still leave you fullest freedom in your wanting, thinking and acting. And even if I want to give Myself away again and again, you must willingly accept and evaluate My gift of grace, only then will it be of value to you, but against (without) your will you cannot reach the light …._>Amen

People don't know about their immense spiritual hardship ….
B.D. 8633 from October 2nd 1963, taken from Book No. 91
You humans are not conscious of your hardship, yet this calamity cannot be described to you pessimistically enough, so that you will endeavour to remedy the situation yourselves, for you can do so providing you muster the firm will. But first you have to recognise this adversity yourselves …. You ought to know that you have reached the end of an eternally long process of development through the earthly creation, that you had to suffer indescribable torments during this time and that you now, as a human being, are able to end this state of torment and enter the spiritual kingdom as a free being of light …. You ought to know that it is your last opportunity to free yourselves from every physical shell, but that you now also have to lead an appropriate way of life as a human being otherwise you will fail and the whole preceding path will have been in vain …. You ought to know that you, in that case, will fall back into the deepest abyss again and have to cover the path through the creations in appalling agony once more, constrained in matter ….
You humans live your lives irresponsibly; it does not occur to you that you are on earth for a purpose …. you do not concern yourselves in any way with such thoughts and don’t recognise a spiritual reason for your existence …. you do not look for a God and Creator, from Whom the creation as well as you yourselves originated, you live indifferently and …. most importantly …. you live without love. Only love can take you to the final state of perfection, only love guarantees that blissful fate in eternity, since you only need love to attain the last goal: the final release from matter. For although you will enter the kingdom of the beyond after your physical death you will nevertheless not be able to detach yourselves from earth, and then you can still descend further and get banished into matter again. But you can also be caught unawares by the end while you are still on earth, and then you will return to the abyss without fail, from where you had worked your way up already …. And you will have to bear this awful fate once more, for I cannot digress from the law of eternal order, even though My love belongs to you and will never ever abandon you …. But I cannot bypass My justice which is equally part of My perfection.
Time and again I call to you: Take stock of yourselves …. you are travelling the last short stretch of the path. Don’t take the wrong path which will inevitably lead to the abyss, but join Me and cover your earthly path holding on to My hand …. Consider the possible cause and purpose for your earthly existence, and truly, I will illuminate you in this respect because I want you to follow the path to your Father’s house, because I long for your return to Me and would like to spare you the terrible fate of a new banishment …. Realise the fact that you are in tremendous spiritual danger and try to change it, for it is entirely due to your will to fulfil the task that you were allowed to embody yourselves as human beings …. But you have to liberate yourselves from worldly longings; you should not look at your earthly life as an end in itself but always recognise it as the means to an end ….
And it will be possible for you to live an expedient way of life if only you endeavour to live a life of love …. Then you will have escaped the risk of failure in this end period, then you will recognise ever more clearly why you are living on earth, and you will always make the effort to fulfil the will of your God and Creator, you will enter into a father-child relationship, and then the Father will take hold of you and draw you to Himself and never ever let you descend into the abyss again. Listen to My admonitions and warnings, change your way of life, and try to conclude the infinitely long earthly path in order to enter the kingdom of light and bliss after your physical death. And if you muster this determination then you will also truly receive the strength to do so, for I will help you until the end so that you will attain life and not fall prey to death again ….
Amen

Historic evidence of Jesus and His act of Salvation does not exist ….
B.D. 8634 from October 3rd 1963, taken from Book No. 91
People generally regard Jesus’ death on the cross as a purely worldly event, providing they believe in His existence in the first place. They regard His death as the execution of a judgment against a troublemaker; they present Him as a court case based on an offence against the authorities by the man Jesus. And these people cannot find redemption through His crucifixion either, because they don’t believe that He died in atonement for a grave sin which burdens every person, and from which everyone who believes in Him and His act of Salvation can be released. Therefore, as long as people have no knowledge of the reasons for the act of Salvation, as long as they are unaware of the immense original sin on account of which people live on earth, as long as they don’t know the spiritual correlations which explain this said act of Salvation by Jesus, they will not avail themselves of the blessings of this act of Salvation either. They will only ever regard Him as a person who supposedly had a mission, for they have no time at all for this mission. And yet it is of vital importance for a person’s life on earth that he professes Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation, that he tries to release himself from His immense original sin which cannot be redeemed without Jesus Christ, and thus also requires the acknowledgment of Jesus Christ in order to become free of it. And precisely the importance of it …. the great significance of acknowledging Jesus as Son of God and Redeemer of the world …. should make you understand why I keep enlightening you about it. This alone should explain My remarkable activity of conveying the truth from above to earth, for no historical evidence can be produced for the sequence of the crucifixion as well as for all accompanying circumstances …. for Jesus’ way of life on earth and His countless miracles, which any person will deny who has no knowledge of the power of the spirit, of the power of love.
People believe mere traditions which were passed on from generation to generation, which cannot be reinforced through evidence and which therefore might just as well be consigned to the realm of fantasy. But time and again people must be informed of the fact that Jesus Christ is their only salvation if they want to enter the realm of blissful happiness after their body’s death …. They must be informed of the fact that they do not cease to exist when their body dies and that their state afterwards depends on their attitude towards Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation. Faith in Him is so important that everything needs to be done to make it easy for people to gain this faith. And the quickest possible way is through a truthful portrayal of His life on earth, through clarification about His mission which was not based on earthly but instead on spiritual reasons. This also requires the truthful passing on of knowledge which explains everything that preceded Jesus’ act of Salvation …. Anyone who can be introduced to this knowledge on account of his own willingness to know the truth, will no longer doubt the extremely important mission of Jesus, the human being, and acknowledge Him and His act of Salvation as well as profess Him to his fellowmen. Admittedly, none of this knowledge can be proven to him in an earthly way, but if he accepts the teachings through the spirit he will not doubt them, he will believe them with conviction, even without evidence, and advocate the truth of it himself. Every person’s life on earth is in vain if he does not find Jesus Christ and take the path to the cross. And although it is still possible to accept Him in the kingdom of the beyond, he will nevertheless lose many blessings which he could have used on earth in order to attain the childship to God, which is only possible for him on earth. In the afterlife it is often difficult to receive a little light if the soul is as stubborn as it was on earth and refuses to accept the instructions it is offered by the beings of light. For this reason everything will still be done before the end to bestow upon people the correct understanding of Jesus Christ, wherein you can also recognise the reason for My revelations, for people cannot provide you with the true explanation. However, I will always make sure that the knowledge about Jesus and His act of Salvation is preserved, and I will always correct errors, for only truth is the right light and you will also be able to accept the truth without qualms if you desire it and appeal to Me to give it to you ….
Amen

Vineyard work according to God's will ….
B.D. 8635 from October 4th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
Every one of My co-workers is blessed by Me and given the silent assurance of My support as soon as he works for Me. For I need his cooperation, even though it is truly within My power to shape everything according to My will, and thus also to perfect you humans through My will. However, My plan for bringing you to perfection requires the human being’s free will, for this reason the redemptive work must also be carried out by people, so that everything takes place within the framework of natural progression and no unusual activity compels a person to believe …. Time and again I give you the assurance that I will guide your every thought and that you then will also undertake the vineyard work according to My will. Yet I keep reminding you to work diligently and take pleasure in your willingness to help. However, in the final analysis, a blessed vineyard work will always consist of industrious detailed work …. the distribution of My Gospel will always take place on a small scale, for even if masses congregated in order to hear the proclamation of My Word, My Word would nevertheless only take root in a few hearts where the seed would grow. The success will decrease ever more during the last days, for the majority of people will turn away, they will close their ears because they no longer believe. But I know the individual human hearts and it is to these that I will convey the gifts of grace; I will bring them together with My vineyard labourers in order to speak through them directly ….
You can believe that I will not leave out one soul where there is still hope that it will gladly listen to Me. And you, My servants on earth, will truly achieve more with diligent detailed work than with major campaigns which will not yield the success you hope for. But if I Myself foresee a success, then I will also guide your thoughts correctly and put the means at your disposal so that you can work again according to My will. Yet you should not rush into things nor worry, just grant Me your will and let yourselves be guided, and leave everything else to Me. How few people are open to spiritual knowledge because only a few have an awakened spirit …. You must bear in mind that most people don’t understand it even if it is conveyed to them because they live without love and are spiritually entirely unenlightened. This is why the spiritual knowledge that originates from Me directly cannot be distributed to the same extent as any other writing which is and can be offered to the broad mass of population, because the world only appreciates worldly goods. But I know what will be successful, and from My side everything will be done in order to increase the number of those who will be saved, and you should only ever do what is within your power, and always lovingly help your fellow human beings in their adversity. And I will bless every effort regarding this rescue work. I Myself will support them in every way but I also foresee the achievement and therefore also know which work is fruitless, thus I will prevent it so that you won’t use your strength and effort ineffectively. Yet the achievements of silently rendered vineyard work cannot be estimated by you, where the souls pick up and observe every thought that moves you, and therefore your redemptive work will never be in vain, for I want to address all souls, which you will always enable Me to do if you unselfishly work for Me ….
Amen

Human beings have free will …. abuse ….
B.D. 8636 from October 5th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
The will of man is the decisive thing. He is free and remains free until the end of his life, and also in the kingdom on the other side it is the free will of the soul, which causes it to ascent or fall, and that is why this will also alone determines the fate of the soul in eternity. If you humans now doubt free will because you are often unable to carry out your free will in earthly matters, then you must first of all realize that ‘free will’ must be understood to mean your innermost will, which cannot be determined by anyone, neither by Me nor by My adversary, nor by earthly power or by a fellow human being …. You will always determine this inner will yourselves, even if it is impossible for you to carry out what you want. For you must not confuse ‘will’ with ‘possibility of execution’. That is why you so often argue that the human being possesses free will. And because you have free will you also have to answer for the direction of this will. What you now undertake earthly is perhaps important for your earthly situation in life, but not for the fate of your soul, and therefore it is about the direction of your will in spiritual relationship, i.e., your inner life is to correspond to My will, then your will is right directed, and you fulfil your earth life purpose. But only few men walk on the spiritual level, but the others therefore deny free will because they cannot always carry out their earthly plans, and they even stoop to the assertion that man is a plaything of fate and cannot do anything of his own to change his situation in life. But that mostly fate is always only to serve as means to give man’s free will the right direction, so that it turns towards God and therefore brings man on the spiritual level, that they do not acknowledge, and already this inner refusal proves free will. People’s free will is misused far more than it is used, otherwise the spiritual low would not have occurred, but which visibly characterizes the end time. People do not make it clear to themselves that they are free-willing creatures, that they can turn their innermost thoughts in any direction and that they themselves determine through their will which thoughts find access. Because every man leads his own inner life, which can be determined from no side, but is free matter of will of every individual. But as long as men dispute a free will, they also shake off all responsibility from themselves and always make Him responsible for their doing and thinking, Who has created them, when they believe in a God and creator. But as long as they do not know about the meaning and purpose of their earth life, they also do not think about how they lead their life, because they consider earth life to be an end in itself, but not a means to an end, and their wanting and thinking is only earthly directed. Free will alone is decisive whether they reach their aim on earth, because free will must confess God as God and creator (confess his God and creator), and in free will man must fulfil the love commandments of God …. Then free will will take the right direction and also experience strengthening at any time, because the man, who lives in love, will also find to Jesus Christ and receive from Him the favours of a strengthened will and then his lot in eternity is also secured. Free will is abused because all bad actions result from man directing his will wrongly, that he still is at the will of him who has brought all disaster into the world. Also the apostasy of the beings from God had free will as cause, and the return to God must therefore again take place in free will, what can only happen when it takes the right direction, when the will again turns towards God, and now man is also seized by Him and he then also guaranteed to again return to Him, from Whom he once started as free, light-full being …._>Amen

Strength and self-awareness …. Thinking ability – Will ….
B.D. 8637 from October 6th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
You humans would not be able to exist were you not pervaded by My strength …. in other words, you would not be alive anymore had your souls escaped from you, which is My once emanated strength and the real life in you. Thus, you are animated by divine strength, which flowed forth from Me, the Primary Source of strength. Those of you who do not believe in a God and Creator consider your physical life a mere natural occurrence which, even though you cannot explain it yourselves, does not particularly occupy your mind; in fact, it leaves you indifferent and might only cause you to think insofar as that you will have to relinquish your earthly life one day, that you are transient, if you don’t believe in the continuation of life. However, the fact that the strength from Me, which is the soul within you, is the foundation of the human being’s real self-awareness and that you are basically the same in your fundamental substance as your God and Creator, is not something you think about, and therefore you won’t make use of your earthly life if you are not conscious of its actual purpose. Every human being was originally a divine living creation, for the human state is not the beginning of his existence but only the result of the beings’ infinite aberration, which I once created in all perfection ….
But it is always the same strength which flows through the once-created beings as well as through people and which enables them to live …. this strength merely affects the first-created beings as well as people to different degrees …. that therefore the same strength was once able to be unrestrictedly creatively active, whereas in the human being, because of his resistance to Me …. which was the result of his past apostasy from Me …. it only achieves very minimal activity. Yet people’s will is able to increase this strength at any time, until they can be fully active again according to My will, if the human being perfects himself on earth. People have no knowledge of this and consider themselves not much different than any other work of creation around them, which are indeed strength from Me as well or they would not exist. For there is nothing that is not permeated by My strength, the works of creation are merely without self-awareness until all individual sparks of strength have gathered again as a human soul and then possess self-awareness again as in the beginning. But with self-awareness, the human being also receives his thinking ability again and this enables him, with good will, to weigh up arising thoughts against each other …. But a tiny spark of love is in him too, which can also kindle a small light in him, and thus divine powers, which he once possessed and lost through his apostasy from Me, can be awakened again. For the strength which permeates every human being …. as a divine living creation …. has to take effect in some form or other.
Nevertheless, the human being’s will decides whether divine strength is used according to divine will and thus results in a constant increase of divine strength or whether it merely serves the maintenance of the body and is misused again, as before, when the beings’ apostasy happened, because these beings were not active according to My will but opposed it with their own wrong will …. Only when the human being is fully aware of the fact that he is God’s created being and that his continued existence is therefore only ensured by the permeation of divine strength will he make an effort to use this strength correctly and aim to constantly increase the influx of divine strength. For then he will also learn to love Me Myself, he will be lovingly active, and the more lovingly active he is the more strength he will have. Everything you see around yourselves is strength from Me, and thus in your fundamental substance you humans, too, can only be My emanated strength, and you should seriously consider that your Creator, being profoundly wise, has given you life for a purpose …. But your intelligence alone should tell you already that this purpose does not purely consist of earthly accomplishments or achievements and therefore you should not stop asking questions and try to ascertain the reason for your existence on earth …. Such thoughts are too important to reject if they arise in you, and a person who seriously reflects on them will truly not be left without an acceptable answer, even if it is only mentally imparted to him again. However, anyone who regards himself as so insignificant that he looks upon himself as a coincidental product of natural forces will, at the end of his life, not be able to show any spiritual advancement, he will be in the same state as at the beginning of his embodiment as a human being or have even descended lower still, for he will still harbour the same opposition against Me which once motivated his apostasy from Me …. And I will not forcibly break this opposition, yet he will have to suffer for an infinitely long time until, one day, he relinquishes this opposition by himself and returns to Me again ….
Amen

Meaning and protection of divine revelations ….
B.D. 8638 from October 7th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
Even the deepest problems can be solved for you if you only submit them to Me Myself. I Myself am light, and again and again the light will shine through the darkness. But since you are creatures with free will, you must declare yourselves willing to receive the light, because against your will I do not send it to you. But then there is nothing about which you cannot receive enlightenment …. And so I also want to tell you that nothing happens haphazardly from Me, that I always pursue a certain purpose, whatever may happen. You yourselves often cannot fathom what causes Me to My work, because you lack the overview, and that is why questioning thoughts move you, which only I alone can answer for you: Once men on earth are completely wrongly guided in their thinking, when the whole complex of thoughts has become one single error, when no more understanding is to be found for the rule and work of a God and creator, then the whole earth is an area, which is completely shrouded in darkness. And then also no man finds his way anymore in this darkness, and the whole earth walk of a man has as it were become purposeless. I alone now know what it means when a complete standstill has occurred in the healing or return process of all spiritual, which is bound on earth and in the earth creations. Therefore a change must now be created; everything created by Me must again be supplied to its right purpose, and that means that the legal order must be restored, which alone secures a continuation of the ascent development. To this belongs first that mankind is enlightened about the error in which it moves. Because I Myself must take care of mankind walking in darkness by Me letting a light shine into it, which is to make men happy. The light of truth has to shine down to earth; every error has to be corrected; the goings-on of My opponent have to be pointed out as well as his mention has to be made, who can lead men out of every spiritual trouble: Jesus Christ, the divine redeemer …. Everything must be done to fight against error and to displace it through pure truth …. in short, everything negative must be overruled through positive activity and thereby the possibility created for the human being to become free from the adversary’s control and thus to successfully end his course of development …. This intention underlies My unusual work of supplying you humans with a light from above …. And I can also give you the assurance that this light will assert itself, that its ray is so bright that it penetrates the darkness, especially then when the time until the end is only still short …. What once has reached earth as direct emanation of My divine light of love will also enjoy My unusual protection, it is a ‘spiritual’ asset which is indestructible insofar as that even the material form of it will be protected by spiritual forces when earthly destruction has become unavoidable …. which, however, only ever applies to spiritual assets received directly from Me. For just as the supply from above is a purely spiritual process, just as My divine power is expressed in this supply, so too will divine power express itself when it is necessary to protect the spiritual results, the evidence of My divine working …. Therefore do not worry about it; I know it that and when spiritual material is needed, which took its start directly from Me. I also know what is still to come for all of you men. But I can protect every single one of you when I see a blessing for fellowmen out of it. In the chaos, which you men face, unusual individual fates will not touch you particularly, therefore also mean no compulsion of faith, and therefore I can also accomplish miracles, which you do not think possible. But your whole earthly life is only the result of spiritual processes; your world is an illusory world, but the spiritual kingdom is the only real world, and what is inconceivable to you men on earth is simply a matter of course in the spiritual world, and the light beings are full of power and therefore can accomplish everything, because then they always just carry out My will. And thus they also protectively place themselves behind the spiritual knowledge which originated from Me, and they will know how to guide it to where it is needed again, so that people will be taught by ‘God Himself’ and therefore also be in possession of the truth when the darkness has been taken from earth, when people walk in bright light of realization and can also hear or read My direct address at any time, which will always and forever remain the same …._>Amen

Free will …. recognizing good and evil …. love spark ….
B.D. 8639 from October 8th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
The whole earth existence as man has only one purpose, to bring the still imperfect spiritual, which is in a bodily cover as soul, to the last perfection. And that is why the whole walk of life is to be so directed that it corresponds to the principle of divine order: Man is to always only think and want well; he is to always only carry out good actions, i.e., all thinking, wanting and acting is to be carried by love. For man, since he has free will, can use it in any direction. He can lead a good as well as a bad way of life, and he will not be able to be forced in any way. Every man also has within himself the sense of good and evil, because he has a silent admonisher within him …. the voice of conscience …. and because he feels the effect of good and evil actions on himself, beneficent or sorrowful …. And therefore it is also said: Love you neighbour as yourselves, do to him the same thing that makes you happy, and do him no harm, because you also will not be harmed yourselves. Every man knows how to distinguish between good and evil, if only he is honest with himself. But if he has an evil will, then he also seeks to pervert the law of order, then he denies even the sense of good and evil. But then he only lies to himself, and he will never be able to maintain this assertion before himself. As soon as man lacks all sense of responsibility, his whole way of life is only a lie against himself …. he does not want to be good because he is still firmly chained to God’s adversary, but he also knows himself that he is bad, even if he does not want to admit this to his fellow human beings and falls into ever deeper sins …. A person who lacks the conscious feeling for good and evil could not one day be called to account for his conduct on earth …. But it is always only his free will how he leads his way of life, and for this he has to answer. If he himself is wronged, then he will also rebel against it. So he knows about right and wrong …. But the adversary is able to dull his feeling so that he is finally only a blind tool for him, that he lets himself be used completely without will for all bad actions and then he already becomes a devil, although he still walks the earth as man …. But his soul is completely dominated by the enemy, by him who seeks to snatch all souls into ruin. That no other fate can be granted to such souls than renewed banishment in solid matter will then also be understandable to you men who make an effort to live in divine order. Every man can reach perfection on earth, but his will alone is decisive, whether he seeks support in weakness of will and asks for strengthening, whether he has the desire in him to live right and justly …. Then every possible help will be given to him. And this desire could be in every man, because God leaves out no-one, to whom He {not} offers His favours, which however must also be voluntarily accepted and evaluated …. And man himself determines this. But it is wrong to think that a man would be completely incapable of reaching his aim on earth because he is “unusually” burdened with weaknesses and dispositions …. According to these is also the supply of grace, and also particularly burdened men will come into situations in life where they can think and devote themselves to their God and creator …. That they do not do it is again due to free will, but that they can do it cannot be denied, otherwise God would have to be denied justice, wisdom and love, but He wrestles for every soul to win it for Himself, and therefore truly leaves no means untried to help it. But when the soul of a man gives ear to the opponent and closes its ears to Him Who truly loves it, then it is also pulled down by the opponent, and it does not resist, but is in bondage to him in everything, and that also means that it again completely falls prey to him and again remains his belonging for endless long time. Because you men must not forget one thing that the divine love spark is associated with every man at the beginning of the embodiment on earth, that this therefore only needs to be ignited and the danger of a fall into the deep is thereby eliminated. Every man can be active in love, but whether he is willing to love, that is up to him, however decides the success of earth life and his further fate, which can be happiness and bliss in the kingdom of light or also again banishment in hard matter, because otherwise the final aim cannot be reached, which God has set for Himself at the beginning …._>Amen

What is meant by "faith" ….
B.D. 8640 from October 9th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
You humans are required to believe in something for which you lack evidence …. It is demanded of you that you should accept as truth what is communicated to you …. It is demanded of you that you also confess it yourselves. This is faith …. You therefore have to rely on the knowledge of the one who tries to impart his knowledge to you, and depending on his credibility you accept the knowledge. Earthly knowledge can now indeed be substantiated by evidence, and yet it is possible that such evidence is not accessible to you humans …. but you will nevertheless be convinced of the truth if you have complete faith in the one who imparts the knowledge to you. Such faith is nothing strange; it is simply a trust that the fellow human being is correctly informed and that what he imparts can be accepted without hesitation. But it is different with spiritual knowledge, for which proofs are not to be brought. Then it is up to you yourselves whether you trust the mediator of spiritual knowledge so much that you accept without hesitation that you therefore believe what he tells you. And you know that every person can err, that only on the part of God all error is excluded. How then should you procure for yourselves the inner conviction of the truth of what you are to believe? Because only a convinced faith is of value. Proofs cannot be produced, and the man who imparts knowledge to you can just as well impart an erroneous spiritual material to you, which you certainly do not contradict and therefore pretend a ‘faith’ outwardly, but which cannot be called faith as long as man lacks the inner conviction. And man can again only get this inner conviction from God Himself, from Him, Who knows about everything and Who also wants to give His creatures a light, so that they find their way out of darkness of spirit. Therefore man must turn to God in thoughts or in prayer, who wants to win a convinced faith. But man again only goes to God who inwardly confesses Him, who feels connected to him and who is therefore inwardly connected to Him because he lives in love. No man will have a living faith, which is without love …. Because the intellect will not be able to give him conviction, because spiritual areas, spiritual knowledge, cannot be fathomed with the intellect. Man will never reach spiritual knowledge intellectually. The intellect can well think through the knowledge received through the heart and take a stand on it, and as soon as love fills a man, the intellect will also not resist it. Then it will accept spiritual knowledge undoubtedly, also when it is offered to it on the part of a fellowman, because love in man gives it the light of recognition. One thing let it be said to you that there is no living faith without love, that intellect cannot replace love when it is about pure spiritual knowledge …. that on the other hand earthly knowledge, for which the proofs are only inaccessible to man, can be accepted believingly by intellect, as soon as the teacher seems to be credible to him. But there is no evidence for spiritual knowledge, and yet faith in it can become conviction in the human being, yet only ever when the human being, through a life of love, attains knowledge which is conveyed to him by God Himself through the spirit …. Then this ‘working of the spirit in man’ is proof enough, and then it can certainly also be spoken of a ‘faith’, and still it is no dead faith, but it has become alive through love, and convinced the man now represents that, what cannot be substantiated through proof. But when (now a) man has fullest trust and confidence in him who teaches him, also about spiritual knowledge, then he will also be able to believe; he will accept unchecked when he himself leads a love life, and he will build up on the spiritual knowledge imparted to him, i.e. always base his walk of life on the knowledge and make the will of God his own, which he gets to know through spiritual knowledge. And if he lives according to God’s will then it will also become light in him, and he will learn to differentiate truth from error, he will also become knowledgeable and win a living, i.e. convinced faith …._>Amen

Indication of the adversary's activity …. (Speaking in tongues)
B.D. 8641 from October 10th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
You should believe that My adversary will try anything in order to overrule Me, to undermine My activity, to prevent you humans from hearing My Word which signifies light for you in the darkness. And he will always find people complying with his will; he will try to beguile them into believing that they are being of service to Me Myself, and yet they are his servants. He has already largely succeeded in confusing people by igniting deceptive lights for them, so that they believe themselves to be standing in the radiance of light, yet they are far removed from the light of truth. I cannot forcibly eliminate his activity because the human being must make his own decision as to whether he listens to him or to Me …. However, as soon as he has the serious will to know the truth he will also be able to recognise it. No person would ever reject My Word from above were he in heartfelt contact with Me and desired the pure truth from Me …. Yet as soon as he is indifferent or fanatically holds on to spiritual information of unknown origin, he will not be able to recognise the truth and spread his own spiritual knowledge. If he then wants absolute clarity, he must first of all be serious about it, he must appeal to Me Myself for protection from all deception by the adversary …. And I will protect him and grant him light …. he can be assured of that. I know what methods My adversary is using and that people are therefore in great danger of falling prey to his temptations. And yet I can only provide them with obvious help when I recognise their will to be of service to Me and the truth …. Then the adversary’s power will be broken. He will no longer succeed in applying his artful deceptions, for then he will always be recognised as the one he is …. My adversary has many opportunities to work against Me, for he presents himself in the garment of an angel of light, he does not shy away from using My name and causing immense confusion among people. The pure truth exposes his activity and everyone who knows this truth will recognise him, providing he is of good will. Therefore, you humans bear a great responsibility, because it is you who allow his working, you could just as well prevent his activity if you seriously wanted to escape his power and his influence …. For I will always support this serious will by giving you strength to put it into action. It is always just a certain indifference which allows him to influence you. And if you want to liberate yourselves, then he will often use stronger methods to keep you enthralled: by trying to confound you through unusual phenomena. But then take notice: His activity will not grant you clear light; instead, it will always produce incomprehensible results whose mystic character will baffle you, thus they will seem supernatural, yet they are basically merely unpleasant deceptions from which you derive no gain whatsoever. Can you receive greater clarification than through My Word? For it is comprehensible to everyone and only requires good will in order to be felt by you as ‘light’? As soon as something is incomprehensible to you, reject it, for I, your Father of eternity, will always speak to My children such that they can understand Me, but not in a way that you become even more confused than before ….
Where My spirit expresses itself, there shines brightest light …. where My adversary’s spirit is active, you will always be drawn into profound darkness, by this alone you already know what you should make of experiences which all belong to the manifestations of the end, when My adversary will try anything in order to win people over for him. Therefore beware and don’t lose yourselves to him, for as soon as you sincerely appeal for My protection you belong to Me and against Me he cannot win ….
Amen

(Received after debate on intercession) "speaking in tongues" ….
B.D. 8642 from October 12th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
You always only need to request a light from Me, and I will also enlighten you, because it is My will that you walk in fullest truth, who are to serve Me as bearers of light and truth. Believe Me that only from Me the right truth can flow towards you, and therefore always only firmly hold on to Me, Who am eternal truth. Again and again I emphasize that the whole of mankind walks along in darkness, that error has crept in and taken root everywhere and that men can only free themselves with difficulty because they are too deeply entangled in error. Everywhere I want to light the light of truth where only men are willing to serve Me and to live in My will. But who does not completely free himself from adopted spiritual good, who is not able to break away from error and therefore cannot because the desire for the sole truth out of Me does not fill him to such an extent that he would recognize what contradicts this My truth …. He will also inwardly resist when pure truth out of Me is offered to him. For in the course of time you humans have erected an edifice of faith for yourselves which has many flaws, and you do not recognize them because there is a certain spiritual arrogance in you which prevents you from deeply and humbly asking for pure truth. And even if I let a bearer of truth step into your path who can give you enlightenment you try to impose your misguided spiritual knowledge on him again and don’t recognize his mission. And again you believe to be of service to Me …. But I instruct My bearers of light to spread the spiritual knowledge which they received from Me Myself and not to accept anything which deviates from it, because a teaching which contradicts it can never have originated from Me …. And you represent a false doctrine, which you try to prevent people from interceding for the souls of the deceased …. Let it be said to you that you mislead people and prevent them from carrying out a work of love if you only impose the slightest restriction on them in their intercession for poor souls …. I truly do not contradict Myself, and I will not impart this teaching to one and that to another …. And if you believe that you have to take the book of the books (fathers) as your guide, then I will tell you that you misunderstand many things, that your interpretation does not always correspond to the truth, that you have adopted concepts which completely deviate from the truth …. I want to tell you that you cannot gain much spiritually as long as you do not fully stand in truth, even if you believe to be called to unusual work. Fullest truth is basic condition for beneficial work among men. And you do not yet possess this as long as you spread such opinions, which contradict My love and wisdom …. as long as you find yourselves in situations which you pretend to be, which are likewise no signs of divine activity, which never give light but only confuse, for your God and father will not express Himself to you humans in such a way that you cannot understand Him, instead you first have to unravel it and this is again only your own intellectual knowledge but never My word. Do not impute such work to Me for you, which neither testifies to My love nor My wisdom, but know that I will always express Myself so that everyone can understand Me and feels addressed by Me. People are not to be plunged into even greater confusion, for the darkness is already deep enough than that it should still be intensified. And when I bring you together with bearers of light, then accept the light and seriously consider what you are well able to give, you who still make use of such outer forms, because you do not know what is to be understood by ‘spiritual gifts’, because you adopted customs, which are senseless and have no value at all for the maturing of the souls of those who listen to you (speaking in tongues). All abilities shall certainly be revived in you, which you had given away through your sin-fall …. But then you must first recognize the one truth, and then you will not spread false doctrines; you will not demand of men the opposite of that what I Myself demand of them: that they take care of the deceased in love, that they give power through their intercession to the souls, which are completely powerless and depend on help on the part of men and the light beings in the kingdom on the other side. As long as you spread such false doctrine, you yourselves have not yet penetrated into truth and therefore can also not teach your fellowmen. But I still seek to guide the light of truth everywhere, and I will also provide My light bearers at any time with the power to pass on this light; I will do everything to take action against error, because error can never have a beneficial effect, because it is a means of My opponent, who will fight against truth until the end. But truth will be victorious, for I am truth Myself, and the light of truth will shine brightly into the darkness, it will make My adversary’s activity visible, it will expose and refute every misguided teaching, and the truth will enlighten every person of good will …._>Amen

Explanation about baptism with water ….
B.D. 8643 from October 13th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
You still do not understand the spiritual meaning of My Word …. you interpret the letters intellectually and therefore cannot get the correct results. You cannot understand what I wanted to say when I told My disciples ‘Baptise them in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.’ By ‘baptism’ you only ever understand the immersion in water …. an external formality performed by people to demonstrate their obedience to the commandment of baptism …. which, however, is and always was merely an accompanying formality but it does not affect the real core of My commandment. Baptism with water as such does not actually effect a transformation of the person, as you humans will have to admit …. Only the contribution of what emanates from the Father, the Son and the spirit …. which proves the Father’s love, the Son’s wisdom and the spirit’s strength …. can cause a change in the human being and is the true baptism, which every person must have received in order to reach his goal on earth: to perfect himself in order to be eternally united with Me.
The Father …. love …. is an eternal fire which emanates the light of wisdom …. the Son, and the strength of the spirit has to express itself as a result. The human being …. as a weak creature, has to be so permeated by love and wisdom that he in turn attains strength and freedom himself once again. He has to be permeated by My spirit, hence love, wisdom and spiritual strength have to characterise him as a divine living being which has returned to perfection. The human being has to immerse himself in the sea of My love, he has to be guided into truth, which will always come about by way of My will, My strength and My greater than great love.
Baptise them in the name of the Father …. be kind when you give them My Word which is wisdom, and thereby enable the working of the spirit in the human being, which presumes an activity of love, because the manifestation of My spirit is the gift of My love which expresses itself in the conveyance of wisdom …. of truthful knowledge …. Love, wisdom and strength …. they have to be truthfully clarified to you humans, and this clarification is a true baptism of spirit which cannot be replaced by an immersion in water.
Try to understand that you humans should not adhere to external formalities …. try to understand that I truly do not demand outward appearances from you but only ever evaluate what is done in spirit and in truth. And if you now, as evidence of your correct thinking, refer to My baptism by John in the river Jordan, then remember that people knew very little about Me in those days, that outward actions meant a lot to them then, and that every person needed a certain degree of maturity first in order to explain to him the spiritual meaning of baptism. Besides, by their willingness to be baptised by John people proved their desire to come closer to their God and Creator, and in those days this was indeed a substantial spiritual gain. And thus I, too, submitted Myself to this formality in order to legitimise the actions of My forerunner John. It would have been futile to explain the unimportance of this external action to people because they would have been unable to comprehend the pure spiritual truth. The baptism with water caused them no harm, but would only be beneficial to them when they also accepted the Word of God, which John passed on to them ….
And therefore the human being today will also receive ‘baptism’ when he accepts My Word, which is conveyed to him by My infinite Fatherly love, and lives accordingly and thereby finds wisdom …. as a result of love …. which awakens and activates My spirit of light and strength inside of him …. However, all this cannot be replaced by baptism with water, the latter will always remain a symbol, an external formality from which people do not want to part because they try to demonstrate everything outwardly and are not content with the value of purely spiritual experiences.
I can only ever repeat that all external actions and customs are of no benefit, that I will never judge a person by his outward action but solely by his inner attitude towards Me and My Word. As soon as a human being accepts My Word, acknowledges it and lives accordingly he will perfect himself while still on earth, because My Word is the water of life which comes forth from the source of all being. And in this water you should immerse yourselves, this water will flow from your body and you will experience the spiritual baptism when the spirit within you awakens to life, when you are permeated by love, wisdom and strength and you once again become the original being you once were, when by the water of life you achieve eternal life which you will never lose again ….
Amen

Why do people so easily fall prey to error? …. Truth ….
B.D. 8644 from October 14th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
It is indeed difficult for you, My servants on earth, to assert yourselves against misconceptions, for everything that comes from the adversary will also be endorsed by him, and he will support those who are of service to him in every way by spreading error and plunging people into ever greater darkness. His worst action, however, rests in the fact that he makes them believe that they are working for Me. And thus you will also understand when it is said that he will appear in the garment of an angel of light, and you will equally understand that truth and error are often close together …. that the same seemingly takes place and yet it is entirely the opposite, concerning its content as well as its effect. And you will raise the question as to why I allow this to happen, since I, after all, love My living creations and would like to lead them into beatitude …. You will raise the objection that all human beings strive for happiness and yet can be misled by the adversary and the enemy of their souls. And again, there is only one answer to this, namely, that every person need only establish heartfelt contact with Me and sincerely appeal to Me to protect him from error …. Then he would also brightly and clearly recognise the error …. But what causes the adversary to have such a large following …. why do people allow themselves to be caught up in a misconception without opposing it? They are indifferent to the truth, they don’t deliberate enough on what their fellow human beings tell them, they don’t have the desire for the bright light of realisation to be kindled in them …. And this is because their nature is not yet controlled by love, because they are still too attached to the world and fail to live up to My commandments of love for God and their neighbour, otherwise they would be brightly enlightened and permeated by the desire for truth. They certainly acknowledge the fact that people are required to lead a spiritual life and therefore join this or that school of thought, they allow leaders to push them into this or that direction of thought and do not sufficiently reflect on it themselves because they have not yet found a heartfelt bond with Me which is the result of a life of love ….
The whole explanation only rests in the individual person’s degree of love as to whether and why the human being falls prey to error. Equally, however, the person whose way of life is a life of love will just as surely know the truth …. And I can only convey the pure truth to earth by way of actively loving people, so that it is always possible to gain possession of the truth, because this is guaranteed by the love within a person’s heart. And this, too, is known by My adversary, consequently he tries to distort the concept of love …. He stops people from correctly realising what they should do in order to gain My love …. He stops people from carrying out unselfish deeds of love and thereby also from attaining inner enlightenment. He will always know how to nourish a person’s selfish love, and for that time the latter will remain in spiritual darkness and think wrongly, for he will be receptive to many currents of thought which originate from the adversary. The human being, however, has free will …. If he seriously wants to know the truth it will also imparted to him with certainty …. However, if a person only relies on that which is supplied to him by another fellow human being without actually experiencing the burning desire to learn the pure truth from his God and Creator himself, then he will neither recognise error nor defend himself against it and My adversary will have succeeded in his work of increasing the darkness; this will become particularly evident at the end of an earthly period so as not to lose his followers who, however, would recognise his true nature and renounce him if they knew the truth. Everyone who reaches out with pleading hands in order to accept the truth from Me will also be able to receive it in abundance, and the truth will indeed make him very happy. Even so, I cannot prevent My adversary’s activity since he is entitled to fight for his followers. And no matter how apprehensible his methods are …. the human being need not succumb to him because he always has strength at his disposal and because he need only turn to Me Myself in order to be protected from his influence. And truly, My Word is being conveyed to earth as a brightly shining light which can also be recognised by all people as truth …. However, anyone who is still so entrenched in selfish love will also be instilled by My adversary with the belief that he lives on earth as an elevated spirit, and this misguided point of view entails that the human being also keeps himself closed to every emanation of light which originates from Me directly. And yet the person believes to be of service to Me and is nevertheless not aware of My will which requires him to hand himself over to Me completely in order to then be permeated by Me with the light of truth, in order to enable Me Myself to address him, Who undeniably needs servants on earth but only those who have completely entered into My will and are therefore able to work on earth on My behalf ….
Amen

The vineyard labourers trust in divine guidance ….
B.D. 8645 from October 15th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
You can always rely on My guidance by merely placing yourselves under My protection and choosing Me as your guide. In that case you can rest assured that I will protect you from My adversary’s every onslaught, that you will always receive the strength to resist him if he wants to tempt you, for once your will belongs to Me I Am also entitled to protect you from him, otherwise, however, I will not stop him because he, too, is fighting for the souls so as not to lose them. It is always the human being’s own decision to whose power he entrusts himself …. Yet I will at all times assist the person who has found the path to Me. Then he will also be active in accordance with My will, for My influence consists of encouraging the human being to live a way of life which is pleasing to Me …. Then he will always feel inwardly impelled to do or not to do this or that and he can be certain of the fact that I Myself place this urge in him, that it is My expression which is felt by the heart of the human being who entrusts himself to Me. Similarly, I will place the right thoughts into your hearts, My servants on earth, when you work for Me in My vineyard, because this should also be done according to My instructions, even if it occasionally seems doubtful to you. As soon as you have offered your services to Me I will also assign your work to you and you can safely follow your inner inclination. Nothing happens thoughtlessly, I always pursue a specific plan or purpose, and you only ever accomplish what I would do Myself if I lived on this earth in the flesh …. Thus you represent Me, and you can believe that I place My will in you so that you seemingly act according to your own will, but that this resolve is always caused by Me because you voluntarily offer to work for Me. But not all people pay attention to the inner voice and therefore I cannot speak to them directly, nor can I speak so frankly to them that they will be convinced of being addressed by the Father Himself …. I must speak to people through mediators whose words they can either accept or reject, yet this is up to them on account of their freedom of will. Nevertheless, no human being shall go without My merciful care, I look after everyone and show them the right path when they go astray …. For this reason I inform them through My messengers of the right path which they, in their spiritual darkness, often can’t find or take a path which leads them astray because it is illuminated by the deceptive lights My adversary has ignited in order to mislead people who want to reach higher spheres …. But as soon as these call upon Me Myself and appeal for My protection and guidance they are already on the right path and I will send My messengers to meet them in order to assist with their ascent to Me. Nevertheless, My protection and guidance are only rarely called upon, people believe they have enough strength and light at their disposal and that they will then also be receptive to My adversary’s influence who knows how to present them with flowery paths and to conjure up the most attractive regions which, however, will infallibly end up in darkness …. and thus the human being has not ascended at all but walked down into the abyss. Only the person who voluntarily entrusts himself to My guidance can travel his earthly path without worrying, for he will reach the goal …. He has handed himself over to Me of his own free will, and I will indeed be his final goal, he will join Me, the One he always intended to reach …. I only want you to voluntarily give Me the right to guide you through your life on earth, then you will never need to fear going astray or failing, for then you will also always do what is right before My eyes, because this will is in you once you have accepted My will and given up your own will …. in that case the adversary will have no more power over you because you will resist his temptations, you will remain faithful to Me and I will always grant you My protection ….
Amen

The gospel of love must be proclaimed ….
B.D. 8646 from October 16th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
When the gospel of love is preached to you then you know that it is Me Myself on whose behalf My messengers offer to you what is exceedingly important if you want to reach soul maturity still on earth. Then I will address you Myself through the mouth of a human being, for I want to impress upon you the importance of fulfilling My commandments of love; I want to induce you to change your selfish love into unselfish neighbourly love …. I want to encourage you to unite with Me Myself, for I am love, and every work of love unites you with Me, with every work of love you tie Me Myself to you, and therefore you can only take on your original nature again through loving activity, since you were emanated by Me as pure love and were perfect …. Only love brings about this change back. And this is your only earth life task, to form your nature again to love. And that is why I have to preach to you again and again My divine love teaching; I have to make use of the mouth of My servants on earth to preach to you the gospel, which demands from you fulfilment of My love commandments. Your nature is still too much filled with self-love; every person thinks too much of himself and does not respect his fellow human being who needs his help in spiritual or earthly adversity …. and he is not aware of the fact that every day is lived in vain where a work of love could not help his soul to mature …. And that is why he has to be pointed to it again and again; I have to send My messengers to him again and again, which remind him to take care of the neighbour unselfishly, to put his own ego aside and to always only practice love, which alone helps him to perfection …. But he is also to receive a right, truthful enlightenment about the meaning of My love commandments; he is to know about the effect of a right love life and about the severe consequences of a way of life without love …. The reason for his being human is always to be explained in all truth, which was the rejection of My love and the transformation of the original being into unkindness; he is to know what love itself is …. that it is My fundamental nature, that it is also the original substance of every single created being and that without love every being must be called highly imperfect, that perfection cannot be thought of without love …. that all beatitude, all light and all strength is dependent on love and that therefore the human being only walks across earth to shape his nature into love again if he wants to be eternally happy …. Where therefore the gospel of love is preached to you men, there you hear Me Myself, because I stand behind everyone who teaches love, and he then only expresses what I Myself would say, if I would stay in the midst of you and teach you. But I always have to make use of a man to force no man to believe, because also love must remain completely free despite the commandment, because a forced love is no love and therefore also draws no blessing after it. Deep in the heart the divine spark must be ignited, which I have placed into you, so that you are able to love at all, because you gave away this ability in free will when you rejected every illumination of love from Me …. You were completely devoid of all love, and you would never ever be able to reach perfection on earth if My merciful love had not provided you with a tiny spark which you only need to ignite, which can flare up brightly in you and burn into a mighty fire …. And this is the aim which you are to reach: that you are again filled with love power and afterwards become again divine beings, which you were in the beginning. But at the beginning of your embodiment you lack all knowledge about your original state, your apostasy from Me and your earth assignment. And that is why again and again the gospel of love is preached to you; that is why you are also again and again fatefully stimulated to love work. Your life will take place so that you can always practice unselfish love, and your will is always only to be prepared to use every opportunity where you can be active in love. Because your life in eternity depends on it. Only the soul, which shapes itself to love, can stay in nearness to God …. Only love brings about the union with Me, the eternal love, and only love gives you back again all qualities and abilities, which belong to perfection and which you once voluntarily gave away when you gave up your love to Me and therefore hardened in your substance …. You must again become love; you must again accept your original nature, otherwise you cannot become happy in eternity. And because you did not know this at the beginning of your embodiment as a result of your lack of love, which is also lack of light, My commandments of love are repeatedly brought to you, on the fulfilment of which your beatitude depends …. For only through love will you unite with Me again, and you will be perfect again as you were in the beginning …._>Amen

Forgiveness through Jesus Christ …. increase of the degree of love ….
B.D. 8647 from October 17th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
If you openly confess Me in Jesus, then you also belong to Mine, over whom I watch and whom I protect on all their ways. If you have accepted Jesus as divine redeemer then you will also have turned to Me Myself again, Who became man in Jesus. And since Jesus has atoned for your original sin through His crucifixion and you acknowledge Me again as your God and creator, you now also return to Me again, your free will has become active, which completely hands itself over to Me and which has subordinated itself to Mine …. And you belong to Me …. the release from My opponent is accomplished because Jesus Christ has ransomed you from him with His life, because He has redeemed your sin guilt with His blood. And anyone who has become Mine can now also fearlessly end his earthly life, he will no longer fall prey to My adversary, for his power has been broken through Jesus death on the cross. I Myself have won over him in a man, Who was so filled with love that He won the superiority over the opponent, who is powerless against love. What man now has to endure on earth are only purification means of his soul, which is to purify itself, so that it can be radiated through with light to a high degree, when it enters the kingdom on the other side. The original sin is therefore redeemed through the acknowledgement of Jesus and the request for forgiveness. But the soul still has to work on itself to reach the highest perfection, because through the endless long separation from Me, its God and creator, it had stepped out of its state of perfection, it had become a completely love-less being, which has indeed reached a certain degree of maturity again through service in the state of compulsion, which however has to consciously acquire the illumination of love from Me again in earth life, which has to consciously increase its degree of love through its own love activity in free will …. And this degree of love can still be low, and that is man’s work on his soul to increase it, through which the soul becomes crystal clear and can now receive stronger and stronger light radiation. You therefore have to make a distinction between ‘forgiveness of your guilt of sin’ and ‘perfection of your soul’, which every person can achieve himself on earth precisely through conscious activity of love …. The forgiveness of sins is given to you through Jesus’ work of mercy, but love must be kindled by the human being himself and flare up into the brightest flame, and that is why a soul which has found Jesus can certainly enter the kingdom of light because He has redeemed its guilt of sin …. but the degree of light can be completely different. And that is why the human being must make good use of his earthly life for works of love in order to increase his degree of love (light), and the more blissful he will be after the death of his body …. Love and suffering bring about the purification of a soul; love and suffering earn it an ever higher degree of light, and that is why you are also to bless suffering, because it is an effective aid, which brings you to maturity. People who have not yet found Jesus also often have to suffer, and then their gaze is to be turned towards Him Who took upon Himself the greatest suffering voluntarily and out of love for people whom He knew to be in greatest spiritual hardship and wanted to help them. For the thought of Him will once arise in every person who knows about Him, especially in great suffering …. but whether the thoughts are accepted is again determined by the free will of man, and that is why such thought waves can also be rejected. And the soul remains further in greatest trouble. And again, people who reject the divine redeemer Jesus Christ will also perform few works of love because love would already earn them a brighter degree of knowledge and they would then not be open opponents of the divine redeemer …. Because those men are influenced by the opponent and also prevent them from love work. And still opportunity enough is offered to all where they could practise love. But the acknowledgment of Jesus and therefore the acknowledgment of Myself …. earns every person increased strength, for I take care of all those who want to return to Me, which proves their acknowledgement of Me Myself in Jesus. I truly leave no man without help, without protection and without power, because I am infinitely much concerned about the return of every single soul, and what can be done for its rescue out of the fetters of dark power, that will truly not be omitted …. For My love pursues all My creatures who once voluntarily departed from Me, and My love was the cause that I Myself accomplished the work of salvation in the man Jesus, for this love was embodied in the man Jesus …. The eternal deity Itself had ascended to earth, It completely filled the man Jesus and accomplished the greatest work of mercy in Him for the sake of people who languished in the adversary’s fetters and were unable to release themselves from him …. He loosed those bonds, He laid down His life to restore life to those who had fallen …. to those who had perished …. He has redeemed the great guilt that was the cause of your being on this earth. And He has cleared the way for you again to your God and creator, to your father from eternity …._>Amen

Answer to question about re-embodiment ….
B.D. 8648 from October 18th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
As long as you humans live on earth you are still imperfect, and this also means that your knowledge is still subject to limitations, that you cannot grasp everything …. Nevertheless, I instruct you according to your degree of maturity, and it is therefore up to you yourselves to increase your knowledge by increasing your degree of love, which will always be the measure of your maturity of soul. If you are full of love then you will also be able to see through everything clearly …. If you lack love then you will also lack understanding, even if you receive fullest enlightenment. For knowledge only then becomes realization when the spirit in you is awakened through love. But My direct address from above is to contribute to it that your will to love is strengthened, that you are to learn to recognize Me intellectually and then also love is ignited in you to Him, Who has created you …. And that is why I will also always fulfil your request to send you enlightenment so that you are able to recognize Me as loving father and return My love towards you with counter love. My plan of return is not unknown to you, and so you also know about it that every soul once has to start the course over earth, which then is the last stretch of way before the return into the kingdom on the other side. You also know that this walk on earth results in different success with different men and that this is the result of the free will of My creatures, which I will never touch because it is the characteristic of a divine creature. You further know that for this life as man a little spark of love is given to you, which only makes the change back to your original being possible for you, when you ignite this little spark of love in you and let it flare up to a bright flame. When a soul has covered the course through earth creation in bound will, that it has now reached the degree of maturity, which is the prerequisite for embodiment as man, then also the divine spark of love is associated with it, no matter where and in which stage of culture it comes into the world. And man himself has it in his hand to nourish this love spark or to completely stifle it in himself. The greater his inner resistance to the good, the divine, the more he will lag behind in his spiritual maturity. But the feeling for good and evil is present in every man, because he …. as I have often explained …. the execution of good and evil in himself and because he also has the silent admonisher, the voice of conscience, within himself. That he also can lack the concept in which measure he is to listen to the inner voice towards fellowmen is possible because his inner resistance against Me is still so strong and he therefore stands under the power of My opponent. And then his earth walk can hardly earn him the last maturity, and he will have to repeat it. But now the assumption of you men is wrong that he can return again to earth at will out of the kingdom on the other side and that it repeats itself so often until he once has reached the necessary maturity. For even in the kingdom of the beyond the soul will have the opportunity to develop upwards if it gives up its inner resistance …. But it can sink just as deeply into darkness, and endless times can pass if it does not accept the help offered to it to redeem it from hell …. Then it will be hardened more and more, and it will again have to pass through the passage of earth-creation …. And this can repeat itself more than once, and depending on how its inner resistance subsides, the embodiment as man will now also take place in such life situations where there is the most prospect to mature in an earth life. You all forget the many schooling stations which are ready in My creation for the reception of souls of all degrees of maturity …. When you are told that the soul of man enters the kingdom of the beyond, you do not yet quite understand what is to be understood by the latter: Everything outside of earthly life is “beyond.” …. And all celestial bodies harbour spiritual substances in the most diverse degrees of development, where every soul can truly continue its course of development if it does not persist in its resistance so stubbornly that it does its mischief in uncreated spaces to its own torment. Also then it can once again come to its senses because My love and mercy gives up no soul and always gives every soul the possibility to come to a gleam of light and to carry out the change in itself by it giving up its resistance for the first time and being accessible to the instructions, which are also granted to it in the kingdom on the other side. And I truly also know the spiritual constitution of every soul; I also know about the maturing possibilities which are beneficial to every individual soul and which promise success …. But I never see these in a renewed earth course as man, in a transferring back of the soul to earth, if there are not very special reasons, which again only aim at the rescue of weak souls. I am not an unjust God, Who considers His creatures differently out of a whim and therefore not every man is offered the same possibilities. But time does not play a role with Me either …. I reach My aim …. However, I would never reach this aim through ever-repeated testimony as a human being on this earth, because there is one thing I cannot do out of My will: to force the human being’s will so that he makes the right decision …. to induce the human being to have a rightly directed will through My power. His free will can fail again and again and the earth walk be in vain. Every soul lives its own life, and I know exactly about the successes, which it still can achieve, because I know its will. And accordingly I can and will shorten or lengthen the earth life of man …. I will call off prematurely where a relapse is to be feared, so as not to endanger the degree of maturity already reached, and I will give a high age to those where an increase of the degree of maturity or still a turning back to Me is evident, to make the course of development in the hereafter possible for the latter souls. But do not believe that the respective human state of culture has an influence on the development of the soul …. because a life of love is not dependent on outer things or on increased earthly knowledge, because it is at all times and everywhere about the ignition of the love spark in the heart, which however is independent of culture and custom, because it is a pure spiritual process in man when he ignites this love spark in him, and for this always the living together with other men and the divine creation surrounding him can stimulate him. Thus even the most primitive person will be able to increase his soul’s maturity, especially if he is also given the knowledge of the divine redeemer Jesus Christ, which can still be imparted to him in the beyond if the soul is only of good will …._>Amen

The source of all power is God ….
B.D. 8649 from October 19th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
As source of strength from eternity only strength flows out from Me into infinity …. There is no other being which disposes of power on its own authority unless the power has flowed to it from Me. And no being will eternally be able to put Me out of power because all beings are the products of My power, which My will put out of Me. And no matter how perfectly they were created, no matter how they shape themselves in free will to the highest perfection and become My children …. they will never be able to outdo Me Myself as the source of strength, they will never be able to prevent Me Myself from carrying out My will, because the strength to do so is always at My disposal …. And thus I will always and forever remain the lord of heaven and earth, the lord of the universe, to Whom everything that is is subject …. And whether it be hell …. the darkest power …. it will have to submit to My will and My strength, it will never be able to overrule Me, for even the prince of darkness first emerged from My strength, and he would have long since passed away had I completely withdrawn My strength from him, for he, too, is imperishable, thus he is held in place by My strength, otherwise he would have to perish. And so My power also secures the existence of everything what came out of Me, be it spiritual or earthly creations, because also the earthly creations are bearers of My power, and whether they also seem to be transient to you men and are also transient according to their outer form, so the spiritual power still remains, out of which they are formed, because also all matter is power, which has condensed itself to form. And so I am everything in everything …. And I will be until all eternity …. The power will never use itself up; it will not decrease, and whether also power constantly flows out of Me Myself as the eternal source of power and enlivens the entire spiritual and material creation and sustains it, it will never decrease; it will constantly let new creations arise. The number of first-created beings, which fell away from Me, is now endless, and eternities belong to it to again lead these fallen into the deep back to Me …. Therefore also innumerable redemption periods, innumerable creations of spiritual and material kind belong to it, which again requires constant power radiation out of Me …. But all creating belongs to My happiness, and it is also to increase the happiness of all created beings, which have again reached the degree of perfection that they can create and form themselves in free will. All these beings now draw power from Me, and this influx of power is their happiness, which is constantly increased through the use of power in the right will. And this flowing through of the beings with My power will have no end, therefore also the creating and being able to form will have no end, but always My endless love and wisdom will also determine the creative activity in the law of eternal order, and the perfect beings will also always be active according to this order. And whether also My opponent, who stepped out of this eternal order, seeks to wrongly direct the power also flowing through him and through this to create chaotic conditions, he will always only succeed to a certain degree …. But he will never be able to prevent Me from constantly letting new creations come into being which only have the one purpose of invalidating his negative work insofar as that these creations harbour that fallen spiritual which the adversary once tried to cause to misuse the strength flowing out from Me …. This wrongly used power is now bound in those creations and can no longer work against Me; it is also wrested from the influence of My opponent and is now compulsorily caused to serving functions, so that it again works according to divine order …. All power, which goes out from Me, irrevocably flows back again to the source of power, and this law also guarantees the safe return of all fallen spiritual (to Me) and even My opponent will once again take the way to Me …. The power, which once voluntarily departed from Me, which no longer wanted to operate according to the eternal order, will also return again to its source …. For although My adversary is to be addressed as the antipole and thus embodies the opposing force, this force is not stronger than I, for it, too, first originated with Me Myself as the eternal source of power, it is just that I allow every force emanated as a creature …. created being the freedom to use its strength according to its will. And even if this will is now directed wrongly, it will still no longer be able to counteract, as far as I do not allow it, because I alone am the lord, and everything created is subject to Me, and no matter how perfect it was put out of Me …. A fight against Me is unsuccessful and only contributes to the own weakening of the one fighting against Me …. But it causes Me to constantly work and create anew, because My power cannot rest, and it always wants to work in a happy way and therefore also form all created so that also these creatures find their happiness in the right use of the power continuously flowing towards them …._>Amen

Address to vineyard workers ….
B.D. 8650 from October 20th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
Again and again I approach you with the assignment to spread My word, to bring light into darkness, to announce My gospel to all, whom I lead into the way. And when I give you this assignment then you can also be sure that I Myself bless your effort and support you in every activity, which you carry out for Me. And I also know in which way everything has to happen to be successful, both for fellowmen as well as for you …. I will direct your thoughts, and I will also remove all obstacles from your way, because I Myself want it that My word is supplied to men, which I Myself direct from above to earth …. And you can believe that everything is known to Me, that I know about the will of every single soul and therefore also about who will accept My word without resistance …. I also want to protect you from unsuccessful work, and that is why I will also put the right thoughts into your heart, which you always only need to pay attention to, which you then will also put into action according to My will. But often I also test the firmness of your will, whether you also do not let yourselves be frightened back by failures and still serve Me …. But you can also be assured that I am always with you with My help and that visible blessings flow to you, only you are not allowed to slacken in your striving, in your vineyard work, and you must constantly make an effort to prove your love to Me out of full heart, which drives you to work for Me. And you are to know that I need loyal servants in My vineyard because darkness is almost impenetrable and My light has to be carried into the night. Pure truth is hardly to be found anymore, on the other hand error is everywhere where My light does not shine from above to earth. Human thinking has supported error, and the intellect of man also no longer finds out of error alone. What once went out from Me in all perfection, when I Myself walked on earth and brought purest truth to men, that has been completely deformed and is still represented by men as truth, because they themselves are of darkened spirit and no longer able to distinguish truth from error. But only truth can lead men to perfection; error on the other hand will always hand them over more to My opponent, who himself does everything to darken the spirit of men, because he does not want to lose them and because truth brightly and clearly shows the way to Me, but which the opponent seeks to darken with all means to drive men towards the abyss. And people themselves, in all indifference, allow themselves to be pushed onto the wrong path by him if they are not constantly admonished and warned by messengers from above, if they do not allow themselves to be guided by those who know the right path …. And I Myself call My messengers and give them the assignment to guide their fellowmen, to give them a right light, to give them truthful instructions, which they have received from Me Myself. Believe it that I only therefore speak to you from above so that you yourselves are so convinced inwardly of truth that you represent it just as convinced to your fellowmen. Believe it that it is My will to bring truth to fellowmen, and that I will therefore also bless every effort, which applies to this vineyard work. And believe it that I know whether and when a man is receptive and when therefore spiritual material is to be supplied to him, and I truly carry out My will, by Me directing you so mentally and in work for Me that success will not fail to come. Because is there anything what would be impossible for Me? But everything also needs its time because I can also judge it best when man is ripe for My gifts of favour, which are to promote his soul maturity and are truly also suitable for it. However, present all your wishes and requests to Me and have a confidential conversation with Me, constantly ask for My blessing, ask for My protection from My adversary’s activity, who will also do everything to undermine the work for Me and My kingdom …. But as soon as you entrust yourselves to Me and My protection, as soon as you hand over all your worries to Me, I will also bring all your endeavours to a good end, I will bless you and your work and you will carry out your assignment with success …. I Myself will guide all your steps, I will take you by the hand and you will walk the right path …. you will only want to be active for Me because you feel My presence. For you will receive strength from Me, and you will feel so intimately united with Me that you will be happy to be allowed to serve Me, because only then will you recognize your mission and faithfully want to fulfil it according to My will …._>Amen

The true church of Christ ….
B.D. 8651 from October 21st 1963, taken from Book No. 91
Anyone who belongs to My church also has to have a living faith, a faith which came alive through love and thus enables the working of the spirit in the human being, which again is only the result of love. The members of My church will only ever consist of people who are so sincerely united with Me that they feel My presence, whose faith is consequently unwavering and cannot be shaken …. which stands firm like a rock against every onslaught from outside, on account of which I said to Peter ‘Upon you I will build My church ….’ For Peter’s faith was strong and unwavering, even though during one hour he did not pass the test of faith, since events precipitated and shook his confidence …. It was, however, more due to his intellect, which saw no way out from greatest danger, whereas his soul was pushed back and felt abandoned …. Yet after this test of faith his love for Me grew ever deeper and his faith strengthened, and such faith I also expect of those who want to belong to My church. Then they will no longer fall victim to My adversary and their enemy ….
A member of My church will always recognise the truth and renounce all error, because My spirit works in him as an indication that he is part of the church founded by Me …. And where My spirit works there can be no lack of clarity, no doubt and no confused concepts …. A member of My church will be enlightened and his thoughts will be correct ….
This church needs no external characteristics, it needs no organisations, because there are people in all ecclesiastical organisations with a living faith who thereby arouse the spirit within them, and they all affiliate themselves to the ‘Church of Christ’ which, in truth, is a purely spiritual connection of those who unite with Me through love, who do everything consciously and not as a meaningless external activity which is purely mechanically implemented.
You are meant to be living Christians, always conscious of the fact that you should fulfil the purpose of your earthly life, always eagerly striving to reach your goal, and always submitting yourselves to Me so that I Myself can assume your guidance, and then you will truly reach your goal. For I Am not satisfied that you only fulfil humanly decreed commandments which you were taught during your upbringing, which are pointless and do not result in psychological maturity …. As members of the church founded by Me Myself you will also always be My true successors, you will always humbly accept all suffering and hardship affecting you, because you recognise them as a test of faith which you should pass, and as a means of help to increase the maturity of your soul …. For this is what the spirit within tells you, and you will also understand the reasons of what I allow to happen to you.
You will live a second life next to your earthly one, a life in unity with Me, your God and Father of eternity, and this life will guarantee your perfection. Hence every person is able to attain this perfection, irrespective of the school of thought he belongs to, providing he always stays in a living relationship with Me and can thereby also be guided into truth …. which, however, always necessitates a life of love and a firm, living faith …. As long as you humans are lacking both you are just dead forms on this earth which eternally cannot come alive, for your external actions will not result in inner changes which, however, are the meaning and purpose of a human being’s earthly life.
Join the church which I Myself founded on earth, wake up from your sleep of death, bring the spirit in you to life by doing selfless deeds of love, and you will thereby also achieve a faith so unwavering that hell will fail to shake it …. And when you possess such faith you will be truly close to Me already, then you will feel My presence, then you will also regain the abilities that were yours before your apostasy from Me. You will become perfect again as you were in the beginning, and your life will be a happy one for all eternity ….
Amen

The magnitude of the original sin necessitates Salvation through Jesus Christ ….
B.D. 8652 from October 22nd 1963, taken from Book No. 91
If the knowledge of the infinitely long path of development, which you had to travel before your last embodiment as a human being, is given to you and you think about it, then you will also become aware of the tremendous guilt you had burdened yourselves with by your former apostasy from Me …. Because My sense of justice would certainly not let you endure an excess of suffering if you had not brought it on yourselves. Yet it is not an act of punishment on My part but once again only an act of My eternal love, because I want you to be joyful; however, I cannot give you a blissful life which conflicts with My law of eternal order while your frame of mind opposes Me …. which is the case due to your past antagonism towards Me. However, as human beings you cannot assess the magnitude of your guilt because your thoughts are only limited. Yet the beings which previously had fallen away had no such limitation of knowledge as you have as human beings …. instead they were perfect living creations who were fully enlightened. For that reason their guilt is so tremendous that it requires an act of atonement which could not even be achieved with the infinitely long path through creation. Rather, the greatest act of love and compassion had to be accomplished first by the man Jesus in order to make a final redemption of guilt possible which, however, also necessitates the acknowledgement of Jesus as Son of God and Saviour of the world ….
When you return to the realm of light from where you came you can judge the magnitude of guilt that an opposition to Me had meant. You will also understand that only by following the path through creation can you once again obtain the degree of maturity with which you can also comprehend and accept Jesus’ act of Salvation ….
As human beings, however, you cannot grasp the extent of the immense significance this act of Salvation has for you …. for each individual soul …. and you therefore have to ‘believe’ what you are told and accept the divine Saviour Jesus Christ without proof. Then you become free of your former guilt and once again place your trust in Me …. Who was incarnated in Jesus …. and at the same time voluntarily return to Him, Whom you once refused to acknowledge and Whom you resisted …. You humans certainly can be given complete clarification; however, you are not able to understand everything in your as yet imperfect state. Therefore it will always be an act of faith when you follow the path to the cross but it is also your only and certain salvation because Jesus Christ will then accept the guilt on your behalf, because He died on the cross for the sake of people’s sins, He took them upon Himself and redeemed them with His blood so that you would become free of sin …. And yet, this greatest and most important doctrine concerning the act of Salvation cannot be proven to you …. You have to believe it of your own free will and without any coercion …. And you are able to do so because I will never ask of you the impossible and because I will always help you to come to the right understanding.
However, one thing you should not omit or exclude: that you live a life of love …. because love is the strength which enables you to do everything, because through love you attain enlightenment, and because through love you unite with Me again and establish the condition prior to your fall into sin, when My light could continuously enlighten you. That way I can illuminate you as human beings, as soon as you practise love and voluntarily turn towards Me, no longer oppose Me and open up to Me so that the flow of My love can pour into you without restriction. But this is only possible after you have taken the way to the cross, so that you become free from the guilt of your sins, otherwise you will still suffer in the bonds of the adversary who will prevent you from doing actions of love and keep you in spiritual darkness because he does not want to lose you. Your guilt has been immense but it is redeemed by Jesus Christ Who now has become the visible God for you humans, providing you allow yourselves to be redeemed by Him, because you cannot ever remove your guilt yourselves. I, however, cannot admit you into My kingdom with your guilt because, although I Am in fact a God of love, I Am also a God of justice …. And this justice necessitates complete forgiveness of sins which you can only find in Jesus Christ, in Whom I Myself accomplished the act of Salvation ….
Amen

Diseases and cure ….
B.D. 8653 from October 23rd 1963, taken from Book No. 91
If you know the blessing of disease, if you know that disease contributes towards the soul’s purification …. that disease aids your patience and humility to accept My will and you consequently no longer oppose My will …. if you accept that everything happening to you is recognised by Me as beneficial for you, then you will know that I also recognise the moment in time of your recovery ….
However, the fact that I will not cure you instantly is due to your freedom of will, for then you would be forced to believe in Me and My might, but you shall attain this faith without coercion …. Furthermore, you know that the purpose of earthly life consists of providing loving service …. Thus one will always have to work for the other if he wants to fulfil his helpful earthly task. And thus I will also bless the people who are always willing to help even where it concerns physical ailments and pains, and who are able to do so insofar as that they recognise the cause of an illness and the correct remedies to heal it. For depending on their helpfulness and their love for their weak and suffering fellow human beings they will indeed be successful. But in the final analysis every cure is based on My will which therefore imposes a limit on a human being’s work when I recognise that the effect of a long illness is of value for the soul. My will determines a human being’s destiny, thus it also includes diseases which the human will is unable to cure despite all applied treatments.
I will never condemn people’s attempt to discover methods which are intended to help those who suffer …. For as long as loving helpfulness is the reason for all kinds of research My blessing will rest on it too …. If, however, the motive for producing such remedies is based on the acquisition of earthly possessions, they will generally be ineffective or damaging for the human body despite apparent improvement …. The most harmless remedies can equally suffice to result in a cure, because it is My will and I deem the moment of a cure to have arrived.
An illness shall primarily further the bond with Me, the human being shall take refuge in Me and appeal to Me Myself to be healed, then I will send people to cross your path who only want what is in your best interests, whose thoughts will be guided by Me if they are in contact with Me in thought or through a life of love in accordance with My will. But such healers are only rarely to be found, and therefore people more than ever use remedies which likewise originate from unblessed work …. And then neither the body nor the soul will be able to derive a cure from them because I Myself don’t allow that the soul shall be helped against the human being’s will …. so that he learns to turn away from the world because the body is no longer able to meet the demands of the world.
Thus you humans can always call upon the help of a physician, but the cure is determined by Me, however, I will often bless the efforts of the latter so that you will recover; yet you shall also derive from every illness a blessing for your soul, that you submit yourselves to Me and My will, that you patiently and gratefully bear the suffering, because it is greatly beneficial for your soul when you prove yourselves during an illness.
But with a rock-hard faith you will also be able to free yourselves from every ailment …. just as I Myself during My life on earth was able to heal people ‘whose faith had made them whole ….’ For nothing is impossible to Me and if your love is so profound that it brings forth a living, strong faith then you will not doubt My love and might for a second.
Then you can be instantly healed, because then this recovery will not be compulsory faith for you since you will possess an unshakable faith …. But which one of you can muster this strong faith? Who can use My might without doubt, who will give himself to Me so completely with the plea to heal him and is also convinced that his plea will be granted? Then any miracle can truly happen, be it on yourselves or on a fellow human being on whose behalf you voice this request in strong faith …. But anyone who is very sincerely united with Me has already completely accepted My will and lets Me rule and does not use his will in advance …. He will bear even the most difficult suffering with humility in My will and thus renders a far greater service to his soul than through the healing of the body …. But I will always work in you such that your fate will be endurable …. and when a human being has to suffer immense pain it also just expresses My love for his soul, which one day will be grateful to Me in the spiritual kingdom that it was able to dispose of many impurities on earth, that it was also permitted to remove guilt on earth enabling it to enter the spiritual kingdom far less burdened, which it could never have achieved with a healthy body ….
Amen

Everyone would be able to hear God speaking ….
B.D. 8654 from October 24th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
Just as I originally spoke to the beings having emerged from Me in order to reveal Myself to them as Creator and Father, so I speak today to you humans, who are these very beings …. The light of realisation you possessed in the beginning, because you were perfectly created, is no longer yours in your human state, for you once separated yourselves voluntarily from Me and therefore stepped out of the state of light into that of darkness …. But you are wretched in your darkened state and I want to help you become blissfully happy again and must therefore enlighten you again …. First I must speak to you and inform you of My will so that you as human beings can live according to this will of Mine. For the point is, that you will adapt yourselves to the law of eternal order again, that you will live according to My will, which requires you to fulfil the commandments of love …. Since, at the start of your earthly life, you are entirely without knowledge you need to be instructed about the meaning and purpose of your earthly life …. But you also need to be informed of the full truth, this is why I speak to you Myself as the eternal Father-Spirit by addressing the spiritual spark within yourselves, which conveys My Word to your intellect for you to think about it and thus, according to your will, either comply with it or oppose it once again. In the beginning, My Word made you very happy since you thereby recognised My love which time and again expressed itself in the Word. When you were no longer able to hear My Word, because you closed yourselves to My illumination of love, you also lost all knowledge and your state became dark and weak and therefore wretched.
However, if you, as a human being, become receptive to My illumination of love again, then you will be informed of My will which you only need to live up to so as to be spoken to by Me through the spiritual spark and thus, through My Word, receive the knowledge again which will make you happy because you enter the state of light again. My Word can always be heard within you if your will allows for it, for the connection between Me and you will forever remain on My part, only you yourselves can deliberately disconnect it by consciously turning away from Me …. Thus it will always be up to you as to whether you allow yourselves to be addressed by Me, but the possibility to hear Me Myself exists for every one of you humans, and every one should use it, for with My Word he also receives the strength to live his life on earth according to My will. Due to your vast distance from Me, which you aspired to of your own free will, you have lost the knowledge and understanding that you are able to communicate with your God and Father directly, that you can enter into a dialogue with Him, that He will answer your questions and that you can present all your thoughts to Him and communicate with Him at all times. And yet, if people inform you of it, you won’t believe and ridicule them as fantasists and thereby you forfeit every gift of strength which is guaranteed to you by My Word. And only if you try it for yourselves, if you, after heartfelt prayer, quietly listen within, will the voice gently speak in you and you will be happy, for then you will be touched by My Fatherly love which wants to reveal itself in order to gain your love as well.
Yet only a few put this to the test, only a few desire My communication, and only a few believe that I Myself draw close to people in order to demonstrate the direct bond with them again, because they should recognise Me as their God and Father, Who is supremely perfect and also intends to guide people towards perfection. But this knowledge of My direct communication has to be accepted with faith, for it can only be effective if a person, through living a life of love, has gained the faith that the Father speaks to His child. Only then will he also be able to recognise the results of My Words as truth, and only then will his soul make use of them and advance in its development. However, you humans should always consider that My Words will always be more credible than a complete silence by your eternal Father …. For My fundamental nature is love, and you emerged from this love …. Love, however, always seeks to make contact with that which originated from it. This is why the sound of My Word will always be more credible than shrouding Myself in silence and never revealing Myself as a loving Father …. For My perfection would have to be doubted were I not to have mercy upon all My living creations who dwell in darkness, and this mercy therefore shows itself by the fact that I let a light shine into the darkness …. And this light is My Word which is conveyed to you from above, it is the emanation of My love which only requires an open heart in order to be able to take effect in you ….
Amen

Voluntary transformation of the creature into a child ….
B.D. 8655 from October 25th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
I will not give you up for ever, and that means that you will certainly return to Me once, because My love belongs to you, which never ever lets go of that what has come out of it. Once therefore you reach the aim, the last unification with Me and once I also reach My aim, which I have set for Myself with the creation of beings: that you have voluntarily changed yourselves out of My creatures to My children …. that you have become gods, which I could not create Myself, which the free will of the being itself had to form to it, i.e.., the beings had to remain in perfection although they could also assume an inverted nature …. or they had to voluntarily change themselves out of the inverted nature back to their original nature …. So the being could still turn away from Me so far, I however did not let it fall, I did not leave it to its self-chosen fate, but I pursued it with My love and created all possibilities to bring the being on its way back, which means as much as that I took over its guidance from the deep to the height and for the time being eliminated My opponent, who was to blame for the turning away of the spiritual from Me, that he could no longer exert influence on the beings, which once had followed him voluntarily. And I have often explained to you that this happened through the binding of all dissolved particles in matter, in the most diverse creations in the universe …. And as soon as this banishment of the spiritual has taken place, the way of return is entered and now leads upwards. All that is bound in creation is now still belonging to the adversary, and that is why it can also be said: The material creation is the kingdom of My opponent. Nevertheless the power over this bound spiritual is withdrawn from him, and he cannot hinder it in its ascent development, until it once is so far matured that it must cover the last stage as man, but is then again at the mercy of the power of My opponent. I must leave this freedom to it because you voluntarily chose him as your lord when you were to decide for Me or for him …. But again My love also pursues you during the whole earth life, because now we both fight for the soul of man, which is the once fallen original being, which is to return again completely to Me. He spends all his influence to determine man to acts of unkindness, while I again and again seek to stimulate him to a love life and also present its effect to him …. But man decides himself, and he cannot be forced from any side to it. But he has a father, Who loves His child, and therefore I will again and again reveal Myself to man, so that he learns to recognize Me and My nature and returns My love. Because then he certainly also turns away from My opponent, and then the return to the father has taken place, because love binds us together indissolubly. But then also the return into the spiritual kingdom must take place, because this kingdom is the only existing one, while earth as well as all visible creation is only an illusory world, which only exists for the still immature spiritual, which because of its immaturity cannot enter into the kingdom of light. into the only-existing world, and as long as the soul (also) still imagines itself in earthly material surroundings, {even} when it {the soul} has left the earthly body, until it has changed to love. Because this can also still happen in the hereafter as long as the gates to the spiritual kingdom are not closed. But the time is coming, and it is very close, when also this possibility will no longer be, to make up for in the kingdom on the other side what was neglected on earth …. The time is coming when the gates to eternity are closed for all souls, which still had the favour to be allowed to live until the end of this earth and to free themselves from the power of your (their) enemy. For by then a cleansing will have already taken place, a separation will have taken place from the goats and the sheep …. I will fetch the ones who are Mine to Me into a kingdom of peace, and they will be allowed to leave the earth in a living body because I have determined them to be the tribe of the new human race on the new earth …. But what does not belong to Mine, that will irrevocably go towards the new banishment, because for this spiritual there is no longer possibility in the kingdom on the other side to mature there further. It has reached such a low that also in the hereafter only a sinking could take place, which in the end would have to again lead to a new banishment. I also know about the state of the soul of all men before the end, and also hell is emptied, which holds so completely hardened souls that also these are banished anew in hard matter, because with them no ascent possibility is to be seen, but they once also have to again start the way back to Me, if the aim is to be reached. Every person, every once fallen soul, can know that it is loved by Me and is never left to itself. I also know what is useful for every single soul, but I leave it free will, and according to this also (its) fate will be decided when the end of this earth has come, because I do not tolerate a standstill in development, and that is why I also put an end to the work of My opponent, as soon as he seeks to stop the upward development. Then the end of a redemption period has come, and a new one has to start again, the order has to be restored in which all creatures have to move if they once want to reach the aim …. to the complete unification with Me …._>Amen

God carries out his plan of Salvation ….
B.D. 8656 from October 26th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
You will never be able to prevent Me from implementing My eternal plan of Salvation. I have indeed said that you will be able to avert much from yourselves through heartfelt prayer, but My plan of Salvation is based on humanity’s will which I recognised from the start and thus was also able to appoint the appropriate times when the great transformations will take place, and I will indeed adhere to these times. Due to his heartfelt prayer I can certainly avert occurrences from every individual person, I can guide every individual in a way that he will not be affected by the events which I allow to befall people if I want to achieve My purpose: to continue the process of return, which has come to a standstill …. Yet I have always predicted exceptional events to you, and these predictions will indeed fulfil themselves since they must fulfil themselves if the divine order is to be restored again. And I have truly known throughout eternity at what point the divine order will no longer be observed and have therefore always been able to refer to this time and mention the substantial upheavals which will irrevocably occur according to My announcements. But people will never believe these announcements undisputedly, for what is prophesied to them as shortly forthcoming surpasses human notions ….
They will certainly be able to recognise the course of world events, that a change will have to happen because people have reached the lowest point, as is clearly evidenced in their self-indulgence and an excessive craving for a good living standard, earthly commodities, honour and power …. Thus they would be able to recognise by the signs of the time that these announcements have a certain justification, which they ought to take seriously and then live their own life accordingly. But their unbelief is already too great for people to listen to such indications. They unreservedly live a purely earthly life and reject all thoughts of drastic change. And this is why humanity will be taken by surprise by a catastrophic natural event on a scale which has never been experienced on earth before, which will end many people’s lives and lead to unprecedented chaos of huge proportions and mean immense misery for people. This is a last warning sign and shall therefore be constantly proclaimed to people …. My messengers shall draw people’s attention to it so that they will recognise the truth when this event takes place, so that they will make good use of the last days before the soon-following end for the maturity of their souls. Admittedly, they will find little or no belief, and yet I keep instructing My messengers time and again to speak up wherever possible. People don’t want to be disturbed in their lives of pleasure but they will get a sudden shock, and the forthcoming event can mean the end for any individual person, and he will be not be able to take his material possessions across with him. And this is what he shall always bear in mind, for even if he is usually not willing to believe he nevertheless knows that he cannot prolong his physical life by even one day because the hour of his death is predetermined, and he knows that one day his end will come and that this can happen at any day, that he will have to leave everything behind which amounts to the purpose of his life. And therefore he should not value earthly goods so highly but procure himself possessions for eternity …. And he would only be acting intelligently, whereas a purely earthly life is no sign of prudence but only attests to confused thinking ….
My plan of eternity, however, will be carried out and the day I have set for Myself will be adhered to, because the human generation no longer fulfils its earthly task and will therefore be devoured by the earth with the exception of those who have recognised Me, who believe in Me and remain loyal to Me until the end …. For the earth must continue to serve its purpose as a place of education for the spiritual substances which are on the path of return to Me …. And this is why the great work of transformation cannot be omitted and everything has come to pass as I always predicted, because I don’t leave people without warning and offer everyone still enough opportunities to find Me and seek union with Me in faith and love. And truly, these shall still be saved before the end …. I will call them back earlier so that they will not run the risk of descending completely but they can still mature in the beyond …. Or I will remove them from the earth at the end and take them to a place of peace because they are intended to populate the new earth again as the root of the new human generation …. You humans should believe what I announce to you time and again, for there is not much time left, and everyone of good will can still be saved, so that he will not meet the dreadful fate of a new banishment ….
Amen

Paternal address ….
B.D. 8657 from October 28th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
You are to experience My love and favour again and again and feel justified as My children, whom the father surrounds with His love and guides them safely through earth life. You are to go all ways in the awareness that I walk next to you, that you always just need to reach for My hand when the way seems to be difficult for you and you have to fight with obstacles. In Me you will always find the right support, no matter how steeply the path ascends. And you will also not need to walk in darkness, for I Myself radiate the light which brightly illuminates your path …. How gladly I lead My children by the hand and smooth all paths for them, how gladly I speak to them to make them happy, how gladly I let them feel My fatherly love and again and again prove My presence to them …. I only want that they return My love, but then I also hand out My gifts of favour without limitation. For truly, all My love belongs to you, who again and again unite with Me in thought. Because I know it whose longing is meant for Me, and fulfilment will also come to him. But as long as you still stay on earth your earthly body still keeps you imprisoned, and your soul cannot free itself completely; it is still held by matter which encloses it, which itself is not yet completely spiritualized, and therefore also your thoughts will still be subject to earthly restrictions; you will simply not be able to grasp intellectually the pure spiritual processes in which the soul has moved and also still moves. Much will seem incredible to you because the intellect is unable to penetrate spiritual processes which you will nevertheless one day brightly survey when you have discarded the material body. You can perhaps suspect them, but not grasp them in their entire depth. But if you could do this, then you would be unspeakably happy already on earth, because you then recognize My endless father love and this would make you happy in excess. But this you may believe that you, who serve Me as loyal co-workers on earth, will soon be able to move again in blissful realms …. you may believe it that you will soon forget again all toils of life and dwell in light heights where My nearness makes you unspeakably happy. I have sent My messengers of light to earth for the sake of a great mission, and you voluntarily take this walk on earth upon yourselves to help Me in the work of redemption for men, who go through earth life in great spiritual trouble. And you can be certain that I will support you in every way so that you will successfully complete your missionary work. But also you yourselves can increase your degree of light through this earth walk, and you can come so close to Me that you feel My constant presence and your soul now moves more into spiritual spheres than on earth. And then also your spiritual activity, the work in My vineyard, will be a blessed one because I can flood you with My power, which now directly flows over to you through your complete devotion to Me. And so it will then also happen that you do a work of redemption, which is so extensive as you do not think it possible, because it does not only extend to this earth, but far into the kingdom on the other side, and you will once experience deep thanks from all those souls, which through your activity for Me and My kingdom have come to light and become free from the fetters of the opponent. But as long as you yourselves still stay on earth, this great blessing remains hidden to you; you work as man in the midst of men; you can well believe it, what unusual mission was given to you, but all spiritual connections with it you do not know, but you can suspect them, for I let your soul take a small glimpse into My eternal plan of salvation, and flashes of light will also shine within yourselves which momentarily illuminate the darkness, and then no restrictions will be imposed on your thoughts which will one day also find their confirmation, because I also guide your thoughts correctly since you belong to Me. For a short time only you still dwell on earth, to then return again to your true home, to again move into the kingdom of light, from which you went out to serve Me, and you will only love Me, your father from eternity, more and more intimately; you will devote yourselves to Me, and My love will seize you; you will again be united with Me, as you were in the beginning …._>Amen

There shall be light among people ….
B.D. 8658 from October 29th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
A vast spiritual region is opened up to those of you humans who allow yourselves to be instructed by Me Myself, because through My messengers and mediators I can convey the knowledge to all who merely desire it and whose life of love enabled them to understand it. This region is closed to your intellectual studies; it is and will also remain unverifiable to you humans until you are granted such bright inner light by the spirit that it is conclusive for you to have the true knowledge. And this spiritual region is inexhaustible, your God and Creator will instruct you constantly and grant you ever more profound realisation if only you would always comply with the prerequisite which is expected of you: that you make heartfelt contact with Me in prayer or through deeds of love, for the bond with Me must be present otherwise you will forever remain spiritually blind …. For I Myself Am the light, I Am the truth, I Am the spring from which love, light and strength …. profound wisdom …. come forth. And this flow can only pour out if the contact has been established, which you have to establish yourselves because you once discontinued it voluntarily …. But then a region will be opened up to you which you, as mere humans, cannot enter if this contact with Me does not exist. But then everything becomes clear to you, you recognise the spiritual correlations, you understand My reign and activity, My eternal plan of Salvation will be revealed to you and you will be able to comprehend it. You learn about spiritual happenings which form the basis of your existence as humans, you also understand the natural processes and can explain to yourselves the happenings around you, My nature will be revealed to you and many a veil will be lifted before your eyes …. You will also be able to examine spiritual worlds, even if you are only mentally informed of them at first …. until your spiritual eye opens when you have attained a specific degree of maturity which allows for spiritual vision …. Knowledge you are entirely lacking as humans will be bestowed upon you by My Fatherly love, which would like you to be in the same state again as you were before your apostasy from Me, when you were brightly illuminated by the light of realisation and blissfully happy …. You are meant to attain this state again and can indeed achieve it during your life on earth as human beings …. However, you must strive for it, it cannot be given to you …. You must make conscious contact with Me, acknowledge Me as your God and Creator, as your Father and long for My presence which will subsequently grant you the highly valuable gifts of grace, because My infinite love wants to give itself and thus also wants to once again send you the bright light of realisation, which you yourselves clouded out and finally lost entirely ….
Now consider the spiritual darkness humanity lives in, consider that only a few people create a sphere of light around themselves, that, in a manner of speaking, merely sparks of light flare up on earth, which certainly could be caught by every person and which would suffice to ignite a light again in a person’s heart who would like to escape the darkness. Consider how much happier people would be if only they had a small degree of realisation, which they could raise at any time. Then you, who have already kindled a light in yourselves, will understand that I favour everything which helps to bring a light among the people …. You will understand that I educate My own bearers of light whom I endow with an abundance of knowledge, whom I guide increasingly deeper into the truth, which can only originate from Me …. and that I instruct these bearers of light to let their light shine forth again, so that it shall penetrate the darkness which burdens the human race …. It is not My will that you humans leave earthly life in the same darkness as you entered it …. It is My will that you, in this life as a human being, desire light again and, truly, your desire will be granted, and it will make you happy on earth already when you learn to understand why you live on earth and what your actual task on earth is …. Only I know what darkness means for a free and blessed spirit which was created in brightest light …. Only I know that this spirit can only be happy again when it moves within the circuit of My emanation of love …. I want to draw it into this circuit of My flow of love on earth and therefore repeatedly send rays to him which should kindle a light in him that urges towards the eternal Essence of light of its own accord …. It means, that I first grant every person a small amount of knowledge pertaining to spiritual spheres, which the person can increase of his own will. He can constantly avail himself of the flow of My strength of love, he can gain spiritual possessions if he uses this flow of strength for acts of love whereby the love ignites an increasingly brighter light in him …. And light signifies knowledge, realisation, most profound wisdom …. but only ever pertaining to spiritual regions which are inaccessible to the intellect, because I Myself make a point of instructing those people who hand themselves over to Me and appeal to Me for spiritual enlightenment …. They may receive extensive knowledge and thus gradually enter the very state of realisation they enjoyed in the beginning. The darkness My adversary had imposed on them will recede, they will attain the light again by having established conscious contact with Me, the eternal Essence of light, and allowing themselves to be illuminated by Me once more as in the beginning, when they originated from Me in all perfection ….
Amen

Conscious voluntary commitment with God is bliss ….
B.D. 8659 from October 30th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
I constantly seek to increase My living creations’ beatitude, irrespective of their degree of maturity …. But the state of maturity is decisive whether they accept what I send to them in gifts of favour or reject them. My love light radiates incessantly into the whole infinity; it both touches the already perfect spiritual and constantly increases its happiness, but as it also radiates towards everything still wretched, only meets with resistance and therefore remains without effect. But where the resistance only decreases a little, the beingness feels a relief of its agony or fettering, which it has to endure until the resistance has completely subsided. And then it just needs to open itself willingly to My love illumination to be made happy by it and to ascend higher and higher, which also always results in increased influx of My love power. As soon as now My creature is again conscious of itself when it goes over earth as man or has also already entered the kingdom on the other side, then it has also established the union with Me and voluntarily opened itself to My love light ray, and then it will also feel the happiness, which My divine irradiation also has to prepare for it, because I always just want to make happy. And I will never now withdraw My love from My creatures and reduce their state of happiness when they once have entered this state. And therefore there can always only be an ascent; the state of happiness can always only increase as soon as the creature has consciously entered into union with Me. That is why this conscious union is what I try to achieve through means of most different kind, because until then the being can always fall back again, even if My love does everything to prevent it, but it cannot be forced, and the establishing of the union with Me is a completely free act of will …. It leads the being to beatitude, which constantly increases, but if it is not carried out then the being remains in an unhappy state and can remain in it for eternal times. But it is again and again illuminated by Me so that it gives up its resistance, only that the illumination remains ineffective with constant rejection. That is why you men do not know in what great responsibility you stand, because in earth life as man you have reached this degree that you consciously have to make the free decision of will, which can redeem you from all unhappiness, which can form you to a divine being, which now constantly stands in connection with Me and therefore can also constantly be illuminated by My love power. But exactly this test of will …. if it is passed …. is the great turning point in your being, on your path of return to Me. Your earth fate is so determined for every single man that he can pass this test of will …. But My opponent will do everything to prevent man to seek the union with Me, and that is why man has to pass a fight on earth, because he alone decides whether I or My opponent triumph over him; neither I nor My opponent force his will, but each only seeks to influence him, but man himself has to decide. And when you now know that you therefore also decide about your state, whether it remains unhappy or shapes itself into a happy one, you will also recognize the great responsibility in earth life, and you would then have to do everything to free yourselves from your opponent, what you now again can only when you ask for power from Me, and this request is already a connection with Me, which you only need to strengthen to win the victory over the opponent …. For I truly will not leave you without strength if only you request it from Me …. For then you open yourselves to My illumination of love power, and you have passed the most difficult test of will; you now stride upwards and will also never ever fall back once your union with Me has taken place in spirit and in truth …. For I only respect and value that which is deeply felt in the heart, while words alone are of no value before Me. Nevertheless, I will not rest in touching you again and again, for I will wrestle with My adversary for your souls until the death of your body, so that an endlessly long, wretched earthly walk through creation will not have been in vain for you; again and again I will let sparks of love light flash upon you on earth and also then still in the kingdom on the other side in order to make you, My living creations, give up your resistance and voluntarily turn your heart towards Me …. And every single being, every single soul, is a great gain for Me as soon as I can illuminate it again with My love …. And what I do not achieve in one earthly walk I will nevertheless surely achieve one day, because I give up no soul, which once came forth from Me, I pursue it with My love, and whether eternities pass by …. one day it will surely return to Me voluntarily …._>Amen

Misuse of divine gifts (Talents) ….
B.D. 8660 from October 31th 1963, taken from Book No. 91
Don’t believe that you can revoke My eternal order with impunity, don’t believe that you will benefit from an action which contradicts My lawful order. And this will always be the case if you wrongly use the gifts you receive as a human being, which therefore trigger functions in you …. which prompt your will into becoming active …. The human being is intricately structured, he is a work of creation which testifies to My love, wisdom and might, all his functions are meaningful and can only have been devised by a Creator Who is unsurpassable in His wisdom …. merely the physical complexion differs, so that not all people have the same abilities at their disposal and their will to make use of them is either weaker or stronger. Thus people are differently talented in their skills and intentions …. they are also permeated by My strength differently, because it depends on the person’s will whether he requests My strength, which is always at his disposal, or whether he only uses his vitality, which also flows to him at a weaker or stronger rate in a natural manner. A physically completely healthy person can therefore have more vitality at his disposal than someone with an ailing body; however, the latter can noticeably increase his own strength by directly requesting My strength and as a result accomplish achievements which surpass those of his fellow human being. And thus talents are also given to people which likewise express themselves in different ways. All these talents are gifts from Me, gifts of grace which the person should use correctly in his earthly life by being of service to his fellow human being again to the best of his ability, for he will want to develop his talents to either do good or to instil pleasure, providing the person always lives within divine order. Yet everything of a divine nature can also become distorted through My adversary’s influence …. For he will leave no stone unturned in order to revoke the divine order ….
Consequently, the more enslaved a person is by him, the more the adversary can succeed in destroying his belief in a God, the more he can also influence him into wrongly cultivating the abilities …. these talents …. which rest dormant within him. He will remove his sense for everything pertaining to divine order, he will want to destroy the ‘natural harmony’ …. He will always think, want and create such that it will contradict this order, the harmony …. Then the person’s thinking and feeling will become confused through the adversary’s influence. And then distorted images will appear regardless in which field a person works. People will think wrongly and put their thoughts on paper, so that writings will arise which do not benefit other people, which present entirely wrong conclusions and which are unable to satisfy a reader who still moves within the divine order …. And only the adversary’s followers will affirm and accept them. Yet their souls will gain nothing, instead they will even lose that which they possess …. And thus, through the adversary’s incentive the most varied talents will be misused …. What they will then call into life will only ever be distorted images of what I give to people for their happiness …. The functions of hands, eyes and ears are being misused with inharmonious and distorted consequences, for they are being led by the one who is against divine order, against that which is perfect, and who also induces people to be actively against Me by producing works which testify to anything else but to the divine gifts the human being received …. on the contrary, they originate from a sphere where everything has left the order. And the fact that these products of satanic activity find recognition again demonstrates people’s spiritual state, for their nature was not created such that they lack the ability of making the right judgment, rather, their disbelief is confusing their mind …. they are unable to think clearly even if, from an earthly point of view, they possess a sharp intellect, yet their spiritual blindness demonstrates itself in their wrong judgment, they are no longer capable of differentiating between harmony and disharmony, and time and again people with the same spiritual attitude will join them and their judgment. And this distortion of creative products is merely a sign of immense spiritual confusion, an obvious sign of My adversary’s activity and therefore also a sign of the near end, for the soul’s full maturing is no longer assured where almost nothing is within divine order anymore. All My creations testify to wisdom, love and omnipotence and these must also be recognisable in human work and activity, everything must radiate harmony and soothingly touch the human being’s soul which is devoted to Me …. But anyone who is still distant from Me due to his wrong attitude towards Me, due to disbelief or his belief in error will also lose the right sensitivity for any harmony because his soul still belongs to the one who is My adversary ….
Amen
