Supply of truth also for the hereafter ….

B.D. 8697 from December 11th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

Only that can be a blessing for you what serves your soul to mature. And again, the soul can only mature if pure truth is offered to it, because this enlightens it about My will, which is only ever determined by the principle of love …. Therefore it must be My will that man works in love, because through this he will reach truth, and the soul will mature and fulfil its purpose on earth. If the love of man is the principle of life, then he also moves in divine order, and nothing more stands in the way of the union of the soul with Me; the state exists again as in the beginning, that I can completely radiate through the being with My love light and it is happy …. When you look at your earth life as man in this way then no too great demands are made on you; nothing more is demanded of you than a love life according to My will and the power is also supplied to you for this when you want it yourselves that you reach your earth life purpose. And still mankind is on completely different ways …. It is in confused thinking, in wrong knowledge, and love is almost switched off because selfish love prevails and suffocates all unselfish neighbourly love. It is a completely wrong state than that in which men should live …. Almost no one walks the right path anymore: the path of love for God and neighbor …. A complete confusion of thought has occurred, although people believe they have mastered everything and possess great intellectual knowledge …. But what they pay little or no attention to is the state of their souls, which they rather switch off from their thoughts and also do not believe in a survival of the soul after death …. why they unscrupulously savour and enjoy earth life and let the soul starve and starve. And again they can only be snatched out of this blind state through the supply of truth, for erroneous knowledge will never dissuade them from their unscrupulousness, on the other hand the truth can make them wonder and let them become thoughtful …. And that is why I make use of every possibility to convey the truth to people, but I also know where this is appropriate, because in the end-times the activity of My adversary is very bad that all access to most people is blocked, and they cannot be released from their error by force, but the unconstrained supply of right spiritual knowledge can always be possible again if My servants are eager in My vineyard, if they make use of all opportunities where they spread My word, where they speak, so that the pure truth can be offered to people who are willing to accept it. I know about the state of every man’s soul, and I know whether and how rescue can still be brought to him before the end. That is why you, My servants on earth, only need to entrust yourselves completely to Me, and I will also guide you so that the spiritual good is supplied to those, which you receive directly from Me. Where only a good will and the desire for right knowledge is recognizable, there the spiritual material is also supplied, because I also know about the problems and questions of men, which only I can solve and answer for them. And although you men cannot measure the extent of your vineyard work, so I still know every man’s thoughts, and where he is only in the least spiritually directed, I also intervene. But that only few can still be seized, that My flock will only be small in the end, has again and again been told to you, but every single soul is of greatest value for Me, and for every single soul I therefore wrestle and do not give it up when it does not voluntarily again turn to My opponent, who now has won the victory for this earth life, but this spiritual is again wrested from him with the act of new banishment in matter. But you can believe it, My servants on earth, that you do not carry out a spiritual work in vain. Because the spiritual good with which you work has such a powerful effect, which always benefits a soul, even if you cannot pursue it …. But in the beyond innumerable souls wait for the proclamation of My word, and every spiritual work, which you do on earth, has an effect in the kingdom on the other side on those souls, which in their hunger and thirst for food for their souls are exceedingly grateful to you, which you offer to them, and which are grateful to you for the light, which now shines for them …. Because they recognize pure truth and will now also again have an enlightening effect there where there is still darkness, because truth incessantly drives to hand it out, and because only those beings are always happy who stand in truth and can work with it in the spiritual kingdom, who help those souls to redemption out of darkness, who can only become happy through the supply of truth …._>Amen

Clarification about UFOs ….

B.D. 8698 from December 13th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

You will receive light on all subjects through My divine revelations, no question will remain unanswered if you ask Me with complete confidence that I will give you an explanation. Therefore nothing needs to stay unexplained; you need only ask yourselves in order to receive a truthful answer.

Time and again doubts arise in you because you believe that you are allegedly able to prove the existence of so-called spaceships (whether or not evidence could be produced of the existence of so-called spaceships) which come to earth from other stars …. But if you seriously investigate these alleged appearances you will not be able to provide one hundred per cent proof. You will find that these statements are always based on mere presumption or self-suggestion, for which no proof can be found. The explanation rests in the fact that people fall victim to the adversary who, in the last days, is able to resort to lies and deception because people themselves want to experience sensationalism, and nothing is too fantastic for them …. and so their thoughts are completely confused. If people had spiritual knowledge they would know that there is no prospect of contact between the individual stars, that the inhabitants on other stars will never be able to leave their sphere and approach other worlds …. The claims made by these people are pure inventions and no person will ever be able to prove his claim to have been in contact with inhabitants from other stars. However, people can fall prey to the adversary’s works of deception and, due to their imagination, can be receptive to delusions which originate from him, but these cannot have physical consistency since My adversary lacks the power to produce material objects.

Nevertheless, where actual physical objects have been sighted by people these objects have their origin on this earth …. They are test objects of researchers who, with intensified effort, intend to dominate earth’s outer space …. Rumours that are spread about extraterrestrial beings, who supposedly come from other stars, are deliberate lies because no human being will be able to prove they have spoken to such alleged ‘star-dwellers’. The circle of those who affirm such appearances will never include spiritually enlightened people because they are My adversary’s absolute servants, whom he can use for his purposes …. always provided that it does not concern earthly test objects which could be seen by anyone …. which then, however, will be portrayed as extraterrestrial objects by unenlightened people, or by people enslaved by My opponent. Time and again I emphasise that there is no contact between individual stars and that there is good reason for it …. If you humans even assume that these alleged messengers from other stars want to come to earth to save you, then they would also have to actively help you humans on My behalf …. Consequently, if I had given them this task ….they would always have to establish and maintain the connection with those who are My Own, with those whom I will lift up to heaven in the end …. In that case My Own would see these objects and their occupants too …. which will never happen …. because I will explain this misconception to them and inform them of the pure truth.

But those who make and believe such assertions cannot be spiritually enlightened, they always pursue purely earthly goals and believe My adversary’s promises, who wants to prevent people from making heartfelt contact with Me, which is the only guarantee for their rescue at the forthcoming end of this earth. You should believe that it is truly possible for Me to protect every individual person and at the end of the earth lift him up to heaven because the destruction of earth, as it exists now, is inevitable …. And believe that I have countless angels in readiness for this, but that they will never appear to people beforehand as inhabitants of other stars …. And since I convey the pure truth to earth because you humans are in need of it, I would truly also inform you of this if it corresponded to the truth. But I will continue to warn you about My adversary’s artful deception in the last days before the end, who uses earthly activities to deceive people, as well as suggestions to cause mental confusion …. because people will blindly believe what is presented to them as long as they are not permeated by the longing for truth, for then they would also always receive the truth ….

Amen

Final decision in the battle of faith ….

B.D. 8699 from December 14th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

You, who belong to My church founded by Me Myself, who stand in living faith and make an effort to lead a life in love, you will also be able to pass the last faith struggle; you will hold out until the end, because you draw power out of your walk of life, which however will be lacking to those who are only christians according to form and who certainly also can belong to a church, but who do not show the landmarks of My church: the work of the spirit in man. Because My right followers are mentally completely differently aligned like the followers of that church, who certainly also received knowledge through their education or through teachings, but who just only heard with the ears, but the heart remained untouched by it and that is why they also have taken no stand on the spiritual material offered to them. But the followers of My church are such men who live in love and through it reach a living faith, who inwardly occupy themselves with spiritual thought material and whose thoughts were just clarified through love in them, so that they move in truth and that is why also their souls will be strong and powerful when the last faith struggle is waged. Only this last faith struggle will bring the separation, only in the last faith struggle it will emerge who is alive, because the form christians will give away their faith without hesitation, because in reality they have possessed none, were only outwardly members of an organisation, but which disintegrates in itself when it will be about the last decision …. This can only ever be presented to you humans that you should seriously take a stand on the thought material which you receive in the traditional way …. you should just once seriously think about whether and what you can really believe or whether you are just followers without your own judgment …. It is important that you think about it because in the coming faith struggle it will prove, and you will quickly fall away and give up all faith in a God and creator, and that will be your ruin. But if you think about it before, then you can still search for truth; you can use other spiritual material for comparison and make some decision. Just do not go through your life completely indifferently, and seek to stimulate yourselves to love work, because the more you ignite love in you, the sooner you come to the recognition, why you walk over earth. You will always have opportunities to carry out works of love, and do you always comply with your inner urge, do you listen to the voice of conscience in you, then you always approach more and more the church, which I founded Myself on earth, even if you belong to an organisation founded by men, which is only then of value for you when you obey the teaching, which every church or school of thought represents: that you fulfil the love commandments first …. Then you can always feel to belong to My church, because then also soon your faith will become a living one, and your thinking will clarify itself, because then the spirit in you is awakened to life through love. Again and again I call upon you to become members of My church by attaining a living faith through love, as Peter had it …. Such faith is like a rock, it will not be able to be shaken, no matter how fierce the onslaught against it may be. It is My strength which keeps the person strong who lets faith come alive in him …. And only those will be able to stand in the faith struggle, only those will endure the tribulations and persevere until the end because they are strengthened by the power of faith and defy all attacks …. And ask yourselves once how far you would be able to withstand if the decision for or against Me were seriously demanded of you …. if you were to give up your faith in Me in Jesus and were threatened with the harshest punishments …. Then only a strong, living faith can give you the certainty that I am stronger than every earthly ruler, than every man who belongs to My adversary. Then you will fear no-one in this world and hand yourselves over to Me in complete trust, and I will protect you. I Myself will come in the clouds and take you away when the hour has come, and you will be victorious and be able to enjoy the fruits of your faith on the new earth …. For through your living faith you are so intimately united with Me that I can truly also dwell among you, because your intimate love for Me allows this …. And through your faith you will become blessed …._>Amen

Truth emanates from God himself ….

B.D. 8700 from December 15th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

Desire the truth …. and truly, this spiritual request will be granted to you. But don’t search for this truth in books which are based on human intellect again, which are purely intellectual thoughts …. assumptions, for which no evidence can be provided. For as soon as you assume that people are capable of ascertaining the truth by themselves, you are mistaken, because pure truth originates from Me alone, as I Myself Am the Eternal Truth. Therefore I say, request the truth from Me, sincerely appeal to Me for it and you shall receive it. The truth, as I want it to be understood and which you should request of Me, is a wealth of knowledge of a spiritual nature …. It is knowledge which extends into spiritual spheres and which can never be substantiated by evidence …. it is the knowledge of your existence, its reason and purpose …. it is the knowledge of the Power Which brought everything into existence and of the relationship between you humans and this Power …. It is the knowledge about the nature, reign and activity of this Power, Which has created everything that exists …. It is impossible for any human being’s intellect to provide a truthful explanation of this, such an explanation can only be given by the Eternal Truth Itself …. Hence you have to ask It yourselves. It is I Who can and wants to give you an answer because I Am the highest Authority and also the Love, Which wants to please you, My living creations, with this knowledge. But I can only reveal Myself to those who sincerely desire truth …. yet they will not ask Me in vain to impart the truth to them ….

However, only a few people have this sincere desire …. Mostly they are indifferent or they unreservedly accept what is given to them by their fellow human beings who also merely use their intellect but cannot guarantee that their reasoning was guided correctly. Not many are interested in the basic questions relating to their existence as human beings, and the belief in a God of love, wisdom and might is not always strong enough to ask Him for enlightenment. The pure truth, however, can only emanate from Me, and their wrong attitude towards Me, their God and Creator, is the reason why people live in error and devoid of all truthful knowledge and thus don’t make use of their earthly life which could lead them to perfection …. Their indifference towards truth is a side effect of the human souls’ immense immaturity, for they are still dominated by My adversary who tries to prevent everything which could provide people with clarification, because he doesn’t want to lose them and can only control them as long as their spirit is dark, far removed from the truth; but only truth leads people to perfection, truth alone is beatitude, it is a light which illuminates the darkness of night that is spread across the earth ….

I Myself Am the Truth, and thus anyone who knows the truth is closely united with Me …. As long as you humans are not truthfully instructed you lack the light for your earthly path of life …. Admittedly, you keep walking, but where is the path leading to without truth? …. It can only lead into the abyss, whereas you will irrevocably ascend if you take the path of truth, for this is brightly illuminated and leads you to the goal, to Me Who is Eternal Truth Itself. And I Am truly always willing to guide you into truth, as I promised when I lived on earth …. I will reveal Myself in My love, wisdom and might to every person who simply desires in his heart to hear Me, to be guided into truth by Me …. This is the most important prayer you can send to Me, for this plea demonstrates your serious will to return, it also proves to Me that you acknowledge Me as your God and Father, and it is a spiritual request which will surely be granted …. For as soon as I can convey the pure truth to you, you will also learn to get to know and love Me in My nature …. And I want your love, I yearn for your love which is only deep and pure if you, through the conveyance of pure truth, know about everything, your origin and past relationship with Me and the goal which shall unite you with Me again …. Then love will ignite in you and you will push ever closer to Me and thus can also be guided into ever more profound knowledge which will make you extremely happy …. You will learn about My eternal plan of Salvation, about the Father’s love for His children and the great work of return, for which every single person can also offer Me his services …. You will learn to love Me …. And this love will make you blissfully happy, for it will lead to the final union with Me, to eternal life …. Yet only the truth leads to the goal and thus you humans should strive for the truth, you should lovingly hand yourselves over to Me and let yourselves be taught by Me, and then you will indeed be instructed by Me, your God and Father, Who knows everything and Who thus can and wants to teach you everything because He loves you ….

Amen

Powerful effect of the divine word ….

B.D. 8701 from December 16th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

A powerful flow of favour flows down to earth when the word of God is supplied to men from His infinite love because they receive a measure of power with the word, which removes every spiritual weakness, which strengthens the will and guarantees man the safe ascent up. But this current of favour can only then become effective on men when man opens his heart and lets it flow in, for which his will must be prepared. The word holds the power in it to overcome all resistances, but the will of man remains free; he cannot be forced to accept favour, but the slightest turning towards God is already will directed towards Him, which causes the power of favour to have an effect, and then God no longer lets him fall, then the word will so fill him and impart power to him that he no longer lets go of him, and the rescue of his soul is certain. The word of God, His flow of favour, goes out directly from Him, and so something divine comes to earth, something divine touches the heart of a man; it fills him and must now inevitably also have an effect, because a divine gift of favour can never be without effect, and its effect can always only be positive …. It must strengthen the weak, heal the sick, make the blind see, comfort the unhappy, give new hope to the hopeless …. It must inevitably lead back to Him that which once fell away from God. And so therefore man, who is an imperfect being through his own fault, must again become perfect, because the power out of God …. His word …. is able to do everything, because it can never remain ineffective. And this exceedingly great gift of favour is at the disposal of you men; it flows down to earth uninterruptedly; it touches all hearts, which open themselves voluntarily, and it brings certain salvation to him who receives it, who lets God’s word have an effect in him. For the word is a ray of favour, which brings light, which means light, which penetrates all darkness and gives brightest knowledge …. But men are unhappy as long as they dwell in darkness of spirit …. Although intellectually they are not aware of their dark spiritual state because they are mostly content with worldly knowledge …. But that the soul lies in torment as long as no real light shines for it, men do not consider. And for the soul a spiritual knowledge is the right light, and this is given to it through the word, which is led directly from above to earth …. The soul receives out of the hand of God what it urgently needs, because it is still in darkness as long as it walks along without right spiritual knowledge. And it is the soul alone which also feels the power of the word; it is the soul on which the word of God has an effect, which heals and perfects itself, as well as a power current flows to it directly from above …. as soon as God Himself addresses it and also supplies it with the strength with His word which it needs in order to perfect itself still on earth. The intellect of man will feel little touched when the word of God sounds to him, and the soul also only then when it is willing to love, because love establishes the contact between the soul and God, which is necessary for the overflowing of His word and His power. But then the soul draws an immeasurable benefit from it, because the power out of God has an effect on the soul with all power; it also gives itself willingly to this power; it opens itself more and more; it matures and wins a knowledge, which can never be given to it otherwise than through His word, which truly also includes all power of proof in itself. Who once has received the word of God in him, which is sent to him unimagined from above, he will no longer want to exchange with other men, and no matter how richly blessed these still seem to be with earthly goods. Nothing can outweigh the spiritual goods, which are taken possession of by the soul, because these lead to ever more intimate union with God, which again includes all happiness. And before the end that flow of favour will flow stronger and stronger; everyone will be able to refresh himself in it; no-one will be denied to drink at the spring and to absorb the power of the word in himself. Only the free will of man will always be demanded, because God will never force the proofs of His love upon him who opposes Him. But unlimited He will give to him who desires His gift. And from God truly only the most delicious goes out, because God alone can impart right food and right drink to the soul and because He knows what His creatures need to again reach happiness, which they once voluntarily gave away. Again they are allowed to hear His word as in the beginning when they just want to open themselves and listen to Him. And then they are saved for time and eternity …. then they will live and no longer lose this life for ever …._>Amen

The beings' gradual higher development in Creation ….

B.D. 8702 from December 17th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

And thus listen to the following: When I transformed the beings, which I had once emanated as strength, into many different kinds of works of creation, it started the gradual higher development of these beings in their dissolved state …. At first it was an incredible mass of spiritual substance which slowly took on form when My will solidified the spiritual strength into matter, and this matter was so differently natured again that it cannot be made understandable to you humans. According to My wisdom and My love I had devised a plan of Salvation for the fallen spirits which was to be implemented in the creation. The purpose of My creation was to induce the bound spiritual substances within to be of service, thus one work of creation was needed for another in order to make it possible for a gradual higher development to take place. The serving functions at the beginning of creation cannot be made conceivable to you humans …. only when the works of creation became somewhat more solidified some activity, albeit very slight, commenced. And every activity testifies to life, every activity achieves a change, therefore the forms also changed constantly, developing into ever larger works of creation, each one of which had to fulfil a task determined by My will and which was also carried out according to My will, because the spiritual substance was unable to resist My will. Therefore the creation did not arise in an instant through My will, instead, the spiritual substances, or ‘transformed strength’, bound therein covered a slow path of development so that its resistance gradually subsided which manifested itself in being of service which, admittedly, still happened under My law of compulsion but nevertheless proved a reduction of opposition …. And so the process of higher development through the mineral, plant and animal world until the stage of a human being, has been explained to you such that the external forms constantly released the bound spiritual substances within, which linked up in order to take abode in a larger form again and continue their service, until all tiny particles belonging to a fallen original spirit had come together again and were able to embody themselves as ‘soul’ in a human being …. But just as it happens in the animal world, that, after dying, the smallest living organisms join other spiritual substances of the same degree of development and enter a larger external shape, so the process of development continued, and My love and My wisdom constantly created new forms which were able to accept the destined spiritual substance …. In nature you look upon this as ‘evolution’ of a small living being into an ever larger one …. Yet first I had to create a new form which previously had not yet existed. And although these forms constantly became larger and resembled the previous forms, it always involved an act of creation on My part which, however, could not be observed by people because no-one endowed with intellect and free will populated the earth as yet.

However, My eternal plan was definite, therefore I also knew about the living creation which was intended to live on earth as a ‘human being’ for the purpose of taking its final test of will …. And thus the spiritual substances which were still bound in the various works of creation were continuously placed into new creations the closer the individual being’s spiritual substance approached maturity …. The works of creation became increasingly larger …. which is not to be understood in terms of physical size but the individual living being’s constitution, their functions and their abilities are referred to in this instance …. Yet each new living creature was the work of My infinite love and wisdom and omnipotence …. which subsequently reproduced itself but always remained the same creation as I had externalised it …. Do understand that no living being will change its constitution, and where you believe you notice a change or further development, its emergence has been an act of creation on My part. Thus every human-like creature inhabiting the earth before the creation of the first human being always were new creations which, however, remained the species they were created as a product of My omnipotence. And since the bound spiritual substance within them constantly developed further, My will also created an increasingly more human-like external form, yet this creation was always based on My will, which manifested itself as natural law again …. what you humans now describe as the natural evolution of the beings …. But the human being can never be regarded as a product of natural evolution, for he is a separate creation, having emerged from My omnipotence, love and wisdom and being designed such that he shall and is able to fulfil an eminent task on earth. Even if you try to train the most intelligent animals to think and decide independently you will never succeed, for the abilities possessed by a human being are not hidden in any animal, for the human being is the only life form on earth in possession of thinking ability, intellect and free will …. which can never be slowly developed nor are they attributes of a creature’s gradual higher development, instead it merely proves that the human being is a work of creation in its own right, called into being through My will and My power in order to accomplish a task. And it was only possible to place the creation work ‘man’ into the world after the once fallen original spirits had already covered the gradual higher development through the creations because the human being was intended to shelter one such fallen original spirit within himself as soul. The word ‘development’ only ever applies to the sheltering or bound spiritual substance in every work of creation which has to go through this upward development, whereas the material works of creation must always be regarded as acts of creation, because My will brought these external forms into existence in order to serve the spiritual substance as external shapes, which themselves should advance through being of service.

The fact that My will simultaneously also signifies ‘natural law‘, which no work of creation can resist as long as it does not yet shelter a spiritually mature being like people do, will also explain the word ‘development’ …. but it will never justify the allegation that the human being evolved by himself …. for he was a separate work of creation which My will and My strength of love brought into life ….

Amen

God's promise to His co-workers ….

B.D. 8703 from December 19th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

No matter how your life turns out, you are always under My protection and can completely entrust yourselves to Me that I will arrange everything for your good. And even if it seems as if no more help is to be expected earthly, you still do not need to fear, and you can be sure of it that again and again a way out is found, that everything lies in My power what I want, and My exceedingly great love always determines My will. And so I again and again give you the assurance that I need you, that your cooperation in the last time before the end is so exceedingly urgent and necessary, that you can also be sure of every help on My part, because you serve Me, and I do everything to you what is only useful to you. And My love always determines Me to make life as bearable as possible for you, and I pour out My gifts of favour over you abundantly; spiritually and earthly I give to you in a measure that you recognize a loving father and return His love to Him. You will need to suffer no earthly hardship, and I will keep all adversity away from you, as far as this is favourable for your maturing of the soul. But still far more will I give you spiritual good, because also there I pour out My gifts of favour unlimitedly. Consider that every word, which you receive from Me, means supply of power, and you will always be able to use this, therefore I will also always be prepared to let it flow towards you in form of My word. You yourselves can certainly reduce this supply when you close yourselves to My word. But I will never let it lack the right food for your soul, which it needs at any time …. And I will never limit the supply of strength, but I make it dependent on your free will that you connect yourselves with Me and so therefore stand in constant contact with Me, Who then will also give you spiritual good as most loving father. For I have also set this as a condition that you are to seek My kingdom first …. but then everything else will be granted to you, and this promise is truly visibly fulfilled in you …. And so you may always know yourselves to be loved by Me; you may believe that I want to make you happy and also want to turn away all suffering from you, as far as this is helpful for your soul. Because also you, who are Mine and want to serve Me, you still have to mature on earth, and you are therefore to radiate an increased measure of love, so that I can spare you from suffering, because love increases the degree of maturity of your soul and dissolves all dross, of which the soul is still covered …. But also in suffering I stand by you, for you are also to recognize Me as your father Who makes all adversity bearable for His children, Who Himself is with them with His help so that they are not endangered in body and soul …. Therefore constantly unite with Me, for in unity with Me you are also under My protection, in unity with Me My adversary cannot harass you, and in unity with Me you are also constantly flooded with strength, and you can ward off every adversity from you …. In unity with Me you also receive My word, which proves My presence to you. And what can then still happen to you when I am present to you? And as soon as you know that My presence also proves itself through the supply of My word …. as soon as you know that I speak to you when I am present to you, you will also not resist the influx of strength …. i.e., you will not refrain from listening to My word, because this word is the most delicious nourishment which your soul can receive in order to mature still on earth. You will therefore never experience a restriction from Me, but you yourselves determine it whether My love towards you can express itself through the word. Speak I Myself to you, then you can already be happy on earth, because then you are also in truth My children, to whom My father love applies and will apply until all eternity …._>Amen

Peace to those of good will ….

B.D. 8704 from December 20th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

I wanted to bring peace to people on earth when I Myself descended and walked the earth …. And also today I want to bring peace to those who are of good will …. For truly, when they let Me Myself into their heart then a peace will also fill this heart which only I can give them, for they will feel My presence and feel blissfully safe and secure, they will not fear any enemy who approaches them from outside, for they know about My love and might which can and will ward off all harm which threatens them. Only in Me will you find true peace, because if you are intimately connected to Me, then you also feel father love, and you know that a father protects and looks after his children and does not let them get into trouble. I want to bring you peace of soul that you are certain to have taken the right way, which leads away from My opponent, whom you want to flee and to Me, your God and creator, to Whom you flee as children, that My father arms embrace you and safely guide you on the way up. But as long as you have not yet found Me, you also wander restlessly along; you know no real peace, because you are still inwardly too much pressed by My opponent, who does not let you come to peace, who is always only anxious to cause restlessness, impatience and agitation in you, who hurries and chases you, who puts you into the world gear, so that you can find no inner peace, because all contact with Me is prevented and without Me you cannot come to a true inner peace. But I came down to earth to bring peace to those who were of good will, for I gathered them around Me and revealed Myself to them as the saviour from deepest spiritual adversity. Only few believed in Me and My mission but these also found peace through Me, they found the path to Me, their God and creator, and walked it consciously by confessing Me in Jesus and being the first to also accept the blessings of My act of salvation, by being the first and most redeemed to be able to enter their eternal home again after the death of their body. To them I brought peace for their souls in truth …. the endless long fight since their apostasy had been endured, and it ended with a victory over the opponent, because they consciously turned towards Me and let themselves be redeemed by Me through My blood, which I shed on the cross for all men. I therefore had defeated My opponent, and everyone who now joins Me also no longer needs to fear My opponent; he will go through earth life in inner peace and also be able to enter the kingdom on the other side after his death, because I have bought this peace for him with My death on the cross. But he must be of good will …. otherwise he will still remain attached to My adversary, because he does not acknowledge My work of salvation and therefore also Me Myself, and for so long he will live a peaceless life in My adversary’s chains …. be it on earth or also in the beyond, until he liberates himself from him, until he takes the path to Me and asks for redemption from Me, thus also for inner peace, which makes him blissfully happy. The earthly world has always been an area of dispute where men have to fight against him who holds them captive, and they will not reach true peace until they have defeated him and found to Me, Who alone can give them peace. But you men will also only then be happy when this peace fills your heart, because then you have found home, even if you still live on earth, but you have gone the right way to Me; you have intimately united with Me, received My love power and also found peace of the soul with Me. Then you have become Mine and eternally escaped from him who once plunged you into the deep. Then you have successfully covered the way from the deep to the height, and the gate to the eternal home is no longer closed to you …. I Myself receive you and guide you into My kingdom, where there is light and bliss and peace for all eternity …._>Amen

B.D. 8705 from December 21st 1963, taken from Book No. 91

A light shone for you humans when I descended to earth, for you were in deepest darkness which My adversary had imposed upon you, but I came from the kingdom of light and approached people with the will to bring them a light …. For I Myself was the light of eternity, I came into the world as a human being in the infant Jesus, I filled this infant with My light, and as long as Jesus lived on earth as a human being He also let His light shine, albeit only to a very limited extent …. But He lived out love, and this alone had to spread light, for anyone who took Him as an example and wanted to emulate His life and work would also be filled with light. I Myself took abode in the infant Jesus, for I Myself am also love, and because Jesus was filled with love He was also able to speak with justification before He accomplished the last mission …. the work of salvation …. fulfilled: ‘I and the father are one ….” Love had risen to earth and taken possession of the man Jesus, and so also brightest light had to shine out of Him; He spoke and taught and so gave men a knowledge, which truly gave most lightful information about everything and which could cause men to completely follow in Jesus’ footsteps and to likewise lead a life of love, which then secured him the redemption from all guilt when Jesus had suffered the death on the cross. People had lost all light through their apostasy from Me, and this also meant that they were completely without love, that they had rejected My love and therefore now walked the earth in darkness …. If they were now to be redeemed from their guilt the light of love also had to shine for them again, and again it had to be up to them to accept or reject it …. For this reason Jesus certainly bore the original sin for all people and redeemed it, He bought the supply of light and strength for all people again, but every individual person must also voluntarily desire the light as well as open himself to the flow of love again, only then can he be redeemed from his guilt …. But never would a man have been able to accomplish the work of redemption by himself, never would a man therefore have been able to redeem this great guilt, if I would not have manifested Myself in this man, what again was only possible, if this man completely shaped himself to love, that he therefore received Me Myself in himself voluntarily and prepared a dwelling for Me through love, which filled Him. And again I was this love myself, and love radiates light, brightest realization and clearest knowledge …. And this light radiated down to earth, for Jesus’ soul came from the kingdom of light and only took up residence in a human shell …. And so the connection was made from the kingdom of light to the kingdom of darkness …. In the latter there was no more love to be found and therefore also no ray of light, which could have illuminated the darkness, and therefore some few men called to their God and creator for a rescuer out of their misery …. And their call was heard: I Myself descended to earth, and a period of deepest darkness was brought to an end, the light was emitted through the man Jesus, in Whom was the light of eternity Itself, and anyone who voluntarily allowed himself to be illuminated by this light of love was able to detach himself from the darkness of night, he awoke to life, for he consciously accepted Jesus’ act of salvation, he professed Him in Whom I Myself died on the cross for the whole of humanity in order to redeem it …. And you can believe it that it was no work of man alone, you can believe it that I Myself, your God and creator, with this redemptive work of Jesus …. with His death on the cross …. for the man Jesus was a being Which descended from the kingdom of light to earth and Which caused Me Myself to take abode in Him, because purest love filled the man Jesus which inevitably attracted Me, so that I Myself united with the man Jesus and thus the eternal deity Itself accomplished the act of salvation for all people of the past, present and future …._>Amen

Redemption of the original debt was only possible through love ….

B.D. 8706 from December 23rd 1963, taken from Book No. 91

Once your original sin had to be redeemed, once atonement had to be made for it for the sake of God’s justice …. otherwise never could the guilty beings get close to God again, which they had voluntarily left and strived towards the abyss …. No guilt could remain unatoned for eternity, but endless long time could pass until this act of redemption took place …. And this was also the case, for eternities passed during which the fallen beings had to endure endless torments and thus also bore the consequences of their guilt of sin, but which nevertheless were not enough for the complete redemption of their guilt. For the beings were no longer able to do so, since the original sin consisted of their opposition to divine love, which resulted in their self-emptying of all love …. but a redemption of the guilt was only possible again through the opposite, that love pushed towards eternal love again but this was no longer present. Once it was sinned against love, and again only love could have accomplished a work of atonement, which outweighed that great guilt of turning away from God. And all once fallen spiritual was devoid of all love and therefore endlessly far away from God as eternal love. From below …. thus from the side of this fallen spiritual, which was in the deep …. therefore an atonement of guilt could not take place, although in the stage as man …. after an endless long walk through creation for the purpose of returning to God …. a tiny spark of love is given to the being. But its will is still bound by the opponent of God and too weak to break free from its fetters. Therefore help had to be brought to it, which again only “love” could bring …. Love, which was in abundance in a being remaining with God and which caused this being to do the work of atonement for the unhappy, fallen spiritual …. which caused It to descend to earth into the dark kingdom of God’s adversary and to help weak people to strengthen their will through a work of greatest mercy, so that they could then nourish the spark of love within themselves and let it flare up into a bright flame which again pushes towards the fire of eternal love and can unite with It again. Hence the guilt of sin had to be redeemed by a being Whose love was so powerful that It sacrificed Its life for Its fallen brothers, that It once descended from the kingdom of light to earth into darkness and that, on another occasion, It waged battle against God’s adversary in the midst of this kingdom …. that It bought the souls from Him with His blood, with His life …. that It suffered the sacrificial death on the cross as the human being Jesus and paid the ransom for all those souls which wanted to return to God again and were alone too weak to shake off the adversary. Jesus therefore took the entire sin guilt of all men of the past, present and future on His shoulders, and He has satisfied the justice of God through His death on the cross; His love was so great that the eternal love let Itself be satisfied with it and cancelled the great original sin for the sake of the love of one man. And He again accepts everyone who approaches Jesus for forgiveness of his guilt, who asks Him to give him power to carry out the return to God, who makes use of the favours of the work of redemption, which the man Jesus has acquired through His death on the cross. You men would never have been able to accomplish this return to God because the immense burden of debt did not enable you to ascend and because you were devoid of all love. But only love could restore the connection with God, and that is why a being of light, Which was full of love, had to offer Itself to descend to earth. And in this being, Which took abode in a human external shell, the eternal love Itself could manifest Itself …. thus God, as eternal love, was able to completely unite with the soul, which was completely permeated and finally body and soul in a completely spiritualized state also found complete union with God …. God Himself was able to accomplish the work of salvation in this man Jesus, and the gate was opened again for all those fallen beings who profess Jesus as a human being in earthly life and thereby also acknowledge God Himself, Who became man in Jesus …._>Amen

Christmas 1963

B.D. 8707 from December 25th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

Remember My coming into the world with gratitude and joy, for it signified for you an act of immeasurable love and compassion, a light came to you which was intended to illuminate for you the path out of the spiritual darkness of night …. an era of utter hopelessness came to an end for you humans and a new period of development began …. The path was prepared for you which lead back to Me again …. And this path was exemplified for you by the man Jesus, Who accepted this mission for love of Me, and you, His fallen brothers …. For He wanted to return My children to Me, who had been distant from Me for an infinitely long time already and who languished in deepest wretchedness. Jesus’ human shell was occupied by a soul of light, a being which I had once externalised, which was lovingly devoted to Me and had remained with Me when the host of originally created spirits fell away from Me …. This soul sheltered within the infant Jesus, and miracles over miracles already testified at Its birth to the divine spirit Which inhabited this infant …. Yet Jesus, the human being, had to start His life like any other human being, He was born of Mary, the virgin, who was so exceedingly immaculate that she was able to give birth to the divine infant without ever having sinned …. This Jesus-soul had to enter a pure body because I Myself wanted to take abode in His human external shell and therefore His body remained pure and without sin, for although the beings of darkness constantly exerted pressure on Him with the intention to make Him fall He nevertheless resisted them and redeemed all impure spirits clinging to His soul through His greater than great love. He resisted all temptations and spiritualised everything unspiritual which pestered His body, because He lived in this material world, He made it compliant with His soul’s wishes, for He was full of love and love conquers everything, even the greatest enemy. Jesus, the man, first had to bring all still immature substances clinging to the body to maturity, only then was I, the Eternal Love, able to take abode in Him, and only then was it possible to conclude the great act of compassion, which He wanted to accomplish for the guilt of sin on behalf of the whole human race …. When I descended to earth, when the infant Jesus was born, My spirit was in Him, because the earthly body sheltered a perfect soul within, thus it was intimately united with Me, enabling Me to express Myself through Him …. And events took place during His birth which you would like to assign to the realm of myth, but which truly happened, for everything is possible for a perfect spirit …. However, only a few experienced these miracles pertaining to the child Jesus, whose hearts where full of love and who recognised in Jesus the promised Messiah and worshipped Him …. People with unclean hearts approaching Him only saw a child which was like any other child …. Yet generally, only those people came close to Him who were prompted towards Him by their spirit, who sensed the miracle that had happened in this night and who thus paid tribute to Him with their adoration, because they saw in Him the promised Messiah. Nevertheless, the fact that God Himself came into the world and took abode in an infant was the greatest miracle of all times which will never repeat itself. For Love came into the world, the infant Jesus was full of love, since the great love for the once fallen, wretched beings had motivated it to take on flesh and to redeem the original sin, which could only be redeemed by love because it consisted of the fact that love had been sinned against. And the man Jesus accomplished this act by giving up His life for the sake of love, by offering the greatest sacrifice any human being on this earth has ever offered and will ever offer …. by relinquishing of His own accord all light and all power He possessed as a result of the love which dwelled in Him …. by suffering in the midst of the dark world as a mere human being and by dying the most agonising death on the cross ….

Jesus …. a being from the kingdom of light …. voluntarily offered Himself for this mission to walk across earth as a human being and to accomplish a work of atonement of inconceivable suffering and pain in order to help his fallen brothers. Love permeated all beings which had emerged from Me and remained with Me when Lucifer turned away from Me and drew an immense number of spiritual beings into the abyss with him …. And Jesus’ love was so strong that it wanted to make

Amends to Me for the inconceivable offence against Me, their God and Creator, against the Eternal Love Itself. And I accepted this love which Jesus offered Me and thus also His sacrifice, because it was made by Love and because the original sin could only be redeemed through love …. And thus the being of light took on flesh and walked across earth like all other people, burdened by a heavy earthly body which was a restraint for the being of freedom and light and experienced as agony by the soul. However, He had to travel the earthly path as a human being, because He was meant to serve as a shining example to His fellow human beings so that they would follow Him. He had to fight against the same weaknesses and oppositions which burden every person by nature, because all failings and flaws had to be disposed of by way of the work of improving the soul …. The man Jesus lived in the midst of the earthly world, in the region which belonged to My adversary, and it was twice as difficult for the soul from the kingdom of light to assert itself in this dark area, to resist all satanic attempts to cause its downfall and to treat everything unspiritual in the flesh and in its surroundings with love. For even His body was badly besieged by immature spirits which Jesus did not fend off because, in His wisdom, He realised that these spiritual substances also wanted to be redeemed and His love was constantly willing to bring help to all wretched beings. His soul suffered incredibly through its environment, it was used to freedom and light and love and thus to supreme bliss and now found itself in darkness, bound by the body and in the most heartless environment. And thus from childhood on His earthly path of life had been a state of suffering through which He atoned for many of His fellow human beings’ sins …. until He finally accomplished the great sacrifice of atonement by sacrificing Himself for the original sin of all human beings, past, present and future …. You humans will never be able to comprehend this act of compassion, for no human being would have been able to take such an extent of suffering upon himself in awareness of its conclusion, for He was constantly mindful of His end which did not allow any joy to arise in Him; He had human feelings and lived through it all in a state of fear which was caused by every thought of the forthcoming event. And He endured until the end, the love in Him for Me and for all which is unredeemed grew constantly and gave Him the strength to carry out His act of compassion …. I Myself was able to permeate Him completely, I Myself was in Him in My fundamental nature, and thus it was I Who atoned for the guilt of sin on behalf of all people, for it was Love which gave Jesus the strength to suffer and to die on the cross in order to redeem humanity, in order to make

Amends for the immense original sin, which could only be justly atoned for through an act of love as was accomplished by the man Jesus on the cross ….

Amen

What is grace? …. God's word unusual gift of grace ….

B.D. 8708 from December 26th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

Let yourselves be satisfied with My grace …. Because as soon as you evaluate these, you reach your aim on earth, to perfect yourselves to My children, who are to enter the inheritance of the father. You are of yourselves nothing but only weak men, who lack all strength and all light …. But you are so constituted out of your own fault. And everything what I now do for you to turn power and light towards you again is favour; it is a gift, which you did not deserve, because you once voluntarily had rejected My love. Yet I did not and do not let you fall, for I love you …. And so I continue to bestow favours upon you, and if you accept these, you will lack nothing; you will increase in light and power; you will again become what you were in the beginning: highly perfect beings, which stood in radiant light and were powerful. That is why I say: “Let yourselves be satisfied with My grace, then you are truly to be called rich, then you can no longer sink back into darkness, then you will come to the knowledge through graces, what you were, what you are and what you are to become again ….” You will know your God and creator as your father, Whose love is unlimited, which He wants to bestow on you …. Graces are gifts that love offers you …. Only he who is full of love hands out gifts of favour, because love considers those men or beings who have forfeited the right through their own fault to be given gifts by the father, but He gives them nevertheless, because love does not stop to want to make happy, and although the gifts are not requested or asked for, love is always willing to give itself away, and these are favours, which never remain without effect, if they are just willingly accepted and evaluated. Let yourselves be satisfied with My favour because then you truly need nothing else; My gifts of favour include everything in themselves what makes you happy and helps to the last perfection. And I truly do not hand out meagrely; I shower you with favours, and the more you open yourselves to receive them, the more abundantly they flow to you. And no man can get lost who moves in the area of My sun of favour, who uninterruptedly receives the flow of love from Me, which contributes to his perfection still on earth …. The human being can still be so weak …. if only he opens himself to My gifts of grace, then he will be filled with strength and need not fear any state of weakness. And such a flow of grace …. an undeserved gift which helps people to gain strength and light …. is My divine word which is constantly conveyed to earth, which pours into people’s hearts like an inexhaustible flow of grace, which safely strengthens all souls on earth or in the beyond in their still weakened state, which also lets a bright light shine into all hearts …. which penetrates with its strength and enables every soul to perfect itself …. With My word I penetrate the darkness and kindle a light wherever hearts long for light, for My word is truly a gift of grace, a gift which I bring to unfortunate people who are still too weak to consciously request it but who are to reach the point where they consciously make contact with Me and now ask for an influx of grace which they will truly receive without limit …. My word is an unusual gift of favour, and who strives for it, he will truly also soon have reached his aim, because My word will show every man the way, which leads to perfection; My word will impart power and light at the same time to men, and all darkness and weakness will fall away, the human being will enter the circuit of divine light of love, and full of strength he will be able to accomplish everything that is required of him, he will gladly and joyfully fulfil My will and thus also recognize the meaning and purpose of earthly life and now lead the earthly life in accordance with My will …. Then he will have made use of the blessings, then My word will have helped him to take the path of return to Me, that his earthly life will not have been in vain, that he will have changed his nature back into his original nature again, where it stood in the light and was able to dispose of immense strength …. Only My favour can help men to this aim, because My love must give you that what you lack, so that you find out of your state of weakness and become again what you had been in the beginning …. exceedingly perfect beings who were blissfully happy in immeasurable abundance of light and strength and in freedom because their love united them inseparably with Me, Who is love Itself from eternity …._>Amen

God is lord over life and death ….

B.D. 8709 from December 27th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

You know that My opponent has great power in the end and that he also makes use of it in every way. And his power is so great because you men yourselves grant it to him, because you comply with his will and do not resist his temptations in the least or offer resistance to them. It is you yourselves who allow him such activity that he can cause hopeless confusion among you men, because he has you completely under his control, because you are without love …. Love would keep him away from you, because since he himself is without all love, he himself cannot resist love, he is subject to love unconditionally, but you men do not apply it, but are of the same nature as he …. without love and therefore also without power to resist. And therefore it is possible for him to completely intervene in your thinking, to mislead you and to influence you that you always only carry out what is his will …. But his will is to prevent you humans from finding the way to Me …. His will is to keep you under his control, to incite you to actions of the most evil kind, to constantly incite you to sin and to act contrary to all My commandments of love. Furthermore, his will is to extinguish the light wherever it shines in order to penetrate the darkness. And where he cannot extinguish it, there he seeks to cloud it, to put up blinding lights next to it, which shine so brightly that the right light cannot be recognized by men, whose spiritual eye is blinded. He does everything to not lose his following and to win back him who has already withdrawn from him and turned towards Me. And he will continue these efforts until the end, and men will be more and more willing to comply with his desire and to move in sin as it is his intention. And so he will also seek to destroy human life to completely cut off their development. He will again seek to determine men to works of destruction of every kind because the power is taken from him himself over every work of creation although it holds the spiritual in it, which still belongs to him. But he cannot destroy the works of creation, and he also cannot end the life of a man, but instigate men of the same will to it …. And I do not resist him because every man has free will and does not need to carry out what My opponent whispers into his ear. If he does it, then he will also have to answer for it exactly because of his free will. But what do I Myself think of such actions which are directed against a person’s life? Again I allow the free will of man to be valid, whatever he intends. But I still decide about life or death …. For I can very well also thwart an evil plan, I can protect every person from falling prey to attacks by evil people, and I know if and when I grant a person this protection …. I also know when a man’s last hour has struck, which I have determined for his earth life. For then I call a man’s soul away to its salvation to protect it from the relapse into the deep when it has already reached a certain maturity, or also to further use a soul in the spiritual kingdom that it takes part in the work of redemption from this kingdom, but as I also end the life of those who no longer show progress on earth or whose task on earth I regard as finished. All this I determine, because I am the lord over life and death …. And no matter how brutally My adversary proceeds, no matter how much he incites the people in bondage to acts of hatred and unkindness, he does not have the power to put an end to a person’s life …. He can only determine man as mediator, but how the effect of every still so evil act is, that will always be left to My will. But for the will to act every soul has to answer, and also My opponent himself is not spared the fettering after his work in the last time before the end. So I will certainly leave free will to man who has surrendered to the will of My opponent; I will not prevent him to carry out his plan, and no matter how bad it is, but I Myself determine the effect or allow it. And a man loses his life through diabolical attack, then My will has predetermined the end of it, because I Myself call a man away, because I see when the hour has come for it. And whether also now My opponent triumphs …. he is also only an instrument in My plan of salvation from eternity, it is he who first needs the human being’s free will in order to be able to carry out his shameful plans. But everything that happens is included in My plan of salvation from eternity, and also My adversary contributes through his will to support this plan of salvation and to push men to a decision, because every man has to prove his free will, whether he decides for Me or for him, and accordingly also all world events take place, whereby he is certainly strongly involved, but in the end still My will remains determining, how far I tolerate his work always in the foresight of the outcome, which alone is known to Me …._>Amen

John 14, 15-26

B.D. 8710 from December 29th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

‘He that hath My commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth Me …. and I will love him, and will manifest Myself to him ….’ This promise of Mine clearly points to the fact that I reveal Myself to those who comply with My requirements because they love Me …. And with My promise I pointed to the working of My spirit within you during My lifetime on earth already, for precisely this spirit wanted to express itself to you and grant you clarity about Myself, My nature and My activity …. I wanted to reveal Myself to you …. to convey to you the pure truth about everything that originates in Me. Yet only few people have understood the meaning of these Words, for only few people ascribe any value to such divine revelations; as a rule everything, which essentially merely proves the heartfelt contact with Me, is rejected. I demanded of you nothing else but the fulfilment of My commandments of love, for as soon as you lead a life of true love you also unite with Me, Who is Love Itself, and ‘whoever remains in love remains in Me and I in him ….’ It should become constantly easier for you to understand that I …. if I Am with or within you …. will also express Myself, and every manifestation on My part is a revelation.

And this has to guarantee you the purest truth, because nothing but truth can come forth from Me. Consequently you can, without reservation, also accept everything that is presented to you in the form of such revelations which, since they originate from Me, can only be the purest truth. All you humans should engross yourselves more in the spiritual meaning of the Words spoken by Me when I lived on earth. And if you do not understand them correctly or can only recognise an earthly meaning, then you should establish a heartfelt contact with Me by praying to Me in spirit and in truth and asking Me for the correct understanding and, truly, it will be given to you because it is My will that you shall think correctly. But especially you, who believe yourselves to be entitled and called to preach My Word, are not promoting the understanding of My Word, for you do not contemplate the meaning and simply ignore what you are unable to rationally explain yourselves.

Nevertheless, My Word has been spoken and remains valid. I have promised to reveal Myself to you and thus you cannot accuse Me of being a liar, you will have to believe in divine revelations yet merely seriously examine what should be accepted as a divine revelation, but you must not reject all spiritual information received on earth in an unusual way as the activity of adverse forces …. since I have, after all, given you the above promise Myself. And you will certainly be able to make a serious assessment since you were also informed of the criterion ‘Test the spirits whether they are of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God ….’

Hence, divine revelations also have to bear witness of Jesus’ act of Salvation and My human manifestation in Him …. But then you may unhesitatingly believe, especially if Jesus’ act of Salvation is the subject of a revelation which someone claims to have received directly from Me …. You truly need not accept anything unreservedly, it is your duty to examine all spiritual information or you would not be requested to ‘Test the spirits whether they are of God ….’ Every human being should form his own opinion about what is imparted to him, he should always conduct every examination by calling upon Myself so that he will achieve a living faith …. which, however, is not possible if he accepts everything that is presented to him as spiritual knowledge without objection.

For My adversary is active as well and always tries to contaminate the pure truth, and the human being himself is duty bound to form an opinion as to be able to distinguish truth from error. And in that case he should keep as much as possible to divine revelations, for as soon as he desires the truth I will also convey it to him in some form or other and he will accept it without inner objection, because it will affect him as light and strength, since everything originating from Me will not remain ineffective. Anyone who truly desires the truth from Me will definitely be correctly guided by Me in his thinking, for then I will place the right thoughts into his heart, because he will have sincerely requested the truth from Myself and he will then also be able to speak of divine revelations …. Then he, too, will be able to lay claim to My promise …. ‘I will manifest Myself to him ….’ He will feel the truth in his heart and his intellect will equally recognise it as right, his thinking will be guided into the right direction and he will reject all wrong thoughts …. Only these conditions will have to be fulfilled by him:

He has to comply with My commandments of love on which I have made My divine revelation dependent, for I Am Love Myself, and if I Am to reveal Myself, a human being also has to be united with Me through love so that I Am present in him and he finds himself in the sphere of the Eternal Truth and thus can no longer think wrongly either …. Living a life of love and seriously desiring the pure truth …. is the guarantee that a human being is also moving within the truth …. But the desire for truth is usually missing …. even if a person’s heart is full of love …. and this is so because the person believes himself to possess the truth, and he cannot be instructed because he doesn’t ask but deems himself knowledgeable …. For this reason it is good if the human being begins to doubt because then he will ask himself questions which I will gladly answer him in his thoughts, because I will reveal Myself to someone who loves Me and keeps My commandments. And even these doubts are often placed into the person’s heart by Me, for I only want the person to live in truth and I will help everyone of good will to achieve it ….

Amen

The bond of love shall connect everyone without distinction ….

B.D. 8711 from December 30th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

Only love will always and ever lead you to perfection …. And this love has to flare up deep within your heart, it has to fill your whole being and motivate your every intention and action, then you will come ever closer to perfection, then you can say that you have been reborn, for you will have changed yourselves into your fundamental nature again. But only few people achieve this high degree of love while still on earth, yet I already accept their will as evidence of love …. the will to reach Me, the desire for My presence, always proves their love for Me already ….

You humans are unable to muster this burning love for Me and all created beings, which deifies you on earth already, you live in a world devoid of love, and that also has an effect on those who themselves are willing to love but who, due to recurring unkindness, are inwardly inhibited from loving actions which, however, would awaken reciprocated love. And yet you should carry out this work on the soul, you should even love when you are hated, and you will rise above yourselves and become capable of ever greater love. And you may well believe it, as it is possible for you to do …. if only you would always appeal to Me for strength when you are too weak yourselves.

There is no special merit in loving something that is good and beautiful …. Yet to show love to a person who treats you badly or has many shortcomings and faults is far more difficult but also far more commendable, and then your degree of love will rise indeed and you will draw ever closer to Me, the Eternal Love. In order to be able to do this you have to open yourselves to My ray of light …. you have to appeal to Me to soften your hearts, to work in you Myself as soon as you cross the path of people who don’t mean well or who do not appear amiable to you. Consider the fact that all human beings are My living creations, that I want to regain all people as My children, that you all have the same Father, but that not all people have achieved the same degree of maturity which they should and would be able to achieve on earth. But the bond of love should connect all of you, for only by way of love can you also help these less mature people to achieve a higher degree of perfection, for no ray of love sent forth by you will be without effect, it will always have a beneficial effect on the soul which is still surrounded by dense layers.

You are able to show love to such persons if only you consider the poor quality of their souls, which still have to struggle and fight for a long time until they are spiritually fully mature. And if you …. as soon as you are confronted by such a person …. immediately remember Me and My emanation of love, which is available at all times and only wants to be seized by your hearts …. thus just a brief call to Me in Jesus is enough for Me to illuminate you and enable you to love your fellow human being, whom I do not send without reason to cross your path, for he as well as yourselves should mature through such meetings, which you inwardly dislike ….

You should never put your own interests first, you should never ask whether such meetings are beneficial for yourselves but always take notice of the other person’s situation and try to help him, for would I let something happen to you that would be harmful for your soul? Love should glow ever more brightly within you, and My ray of love will always flow to you …. But if you consider and evaluate any human encounter and take earthly measures to avoid it then your action, at that moment, is not in contact with Me and you cannot expect any help from Me either.

Everything you encounter in earthly life only happens to you for the sake of maturing your soul, and you should not avoid it but rise to the challenge by using My strength, and you will be able to derive rich blessings for yourselves as well as for your fellow human beings. You are truly able to develop a high degree of love in you if only you call upon me mentally and appeal for My flow of strength, thus for My illumination of love, and open yourselves to receive it. And therefore it also requires that you do not exclude Me from your thoughts …. And this is the key, it is the only explanation you need to reach your state of perfection while still on earth …. For as soon as your thoughts constantly embrace Me the flow of My strength of love also has to affect you constantly, and then I can always be present with you too …. My presence, however, gives you the evidence of your union with Me, which is only ever achieved by love. Hence love could totally deify you on earth already, yet as you are rarely able to raise it to a high degree you will also have to suffer and through suffering dissolve the soul’s cover …. Still, no matter what happens to you, everything is well considered and will only ever be in your best interests as long as you are willing to return to Me and enter into final union with Me, which will guarantee you eternal life in blissful happiness.

Amen

Spiritual low level …. Lovelessness …. Selfish love ….

B.D. 8712 from December 31th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

The greatest evidence of humanity’s spiritual low level is lovelessness, which is evident amongst people everywhere. Selfish love has steadily increased and hardly anyone is practicing neighbourly love anymore, hence there also has to be a profane state on earth, a state of activity by evil forces, where God’s adversary always has the upper hand and people are his willing subjects. The spiritual darkness is getting increasingly worse, rays of light are only seldom recognisable and even frequently feigned by deceptive lights without strength of radiance …. Judging by people’s degree of love the time of the end has clearly arrived ….

An obvious decline can be detected, people are firmly attached to matter, they only value their body and its comfort, earthly success and an increase of earthly commodities. They do not believe the fact that their souls are suffering extreme hardship since they do not believe in the soul’s life after death, indeed, they frequently even deny having a soul. They cannot be forced into a different mode of thinking, their free will has to be respected, but accordingly they also prepare their own fate after their death.

And anyone who observes what is happening in the world, in his immediate neighbourhood, also knows that this state cannot continue forever because it is getting worse from day to day, because people’s greed for matter continues to grow, because no spiritual aspiration can be noticed and because every situation will eventually come to an end if it does not correspond to divine order.

People no longer serve each other, everyone wants to rule instead and be served at the same time, everyone wants from the other what he enjoys but no-one is willing to do the same in return …. There is no love, people’s hearts are hardened, and there are only ever a few people willing to help in times of need …. And this is the small flock, for once the will to love becomes active it will establish the bond with Eternal Love. And This will not leave a person again, who voluntarily performs labours of love.

You humans do not know the blessings of loving deeds …. you do not know how much easier you could travel your earthly path if only you would practice love and thereby receive consistently more for your soul, but also receive what you need for earthly life. But heartless humanity lacks this knowledge, everyone just looks after himself, and everyone tries to get whatever he can out of life and forgets that his hour of death is unknown to him, that he can pass away at any time and take nothing he owns into the beyond, but that he will arrive bare and miserable on the other side. For he has nothing to show for his soul which he had starved in earthly life but which is all he has left now and which enters the spiritual kingdom in desperate poverty. And this heartless state of people cannot result in the slightest spiritual progress. However, since the soul only lives on earth as a human being for the purpose of maturing, but this purpose is not fulfilled, a powerful intervention by God has to take place, a sharp reprimand and reminder, so that a few people will reconsider the purpose of their earthly life and change themselves before the earth’s last stage begins which will not last long until the end.

People take no notice of God’s gentle voice through strokes of fate, disasters and all kinds of accidents, through the Word of God from above, and thus they have to be spoken to with a louder voice, and blessed, who wants to hear God’s voice and takes it to heart, for even then there will be many people who don’t want to recognise Him when he speaks to them through the elements of nature with tremendous strength …. They, too, will not be forced but able to make a decision of free will, nevertheless they will be spared the worst, the recurrent banishment into hard matter, if they still find and take the path to God, if they still acknowledge Him and call upon Him for mercy ….

But then the end will have come, for the earth will no longer fulfil its purpose, it will no longer be used by the souls as a place to mature, it will merely be utilized for the body, and everyone will elevate himself to a ruler of the world and cause the greatest destructions himself in the belief to control all laws of nature and thus also to experiment with impunity, which then will lead to the final destruction of earth.

But this is what people themselves want, and thus it will come to pass as it is proclaimed in Word and Scripture: a new heaven and a new earth will arise and divine order will be re-established, so that the return of the souls to God can continue, as it is intended in His eternal plan of Salvation ….

Amen

John 7:38-39 ….

B.D. 8713 from January 1st 1964, taken from Book No. 91

Out of your body shall flow rivers of living water …. The stream is to spring out of you yourselves, therefore it must first have flowed from Me, as the original source; it must have filled the vessel, which you yourselves prepared and I now can also let the living water flow towards you, as I have promised you. For in you rests a spark of the eternal spirit of God, Which slumbers in you as long, thus is out of activity, as long as you have not yet become a vessel to receive the flow of spirit out of Me, Which is established through this divine spark …. as soon as the intimate contact with Me is established and the spark unites with the father-spirit from eternity …. thus flows into your heart. You are originally divine creatures, which went out from Me in all perfection, and that is why also all knowledge, brightest knowledge about the most hidden things, had to be in you …. Yet this most profound knowledge is not accessible to the human intellect, but the human being can attain it himself if he shapes himself, i.e. his nature, in such a way that it is once again akin to the divine original being …. if he changes back to love, which he once voluntarily relinquished …. Because love is brightest light and must also put man into the state of brightest knowledge, but which can never be supplied to him from outside, through fellowmen. I Myself have given you the promise: “Out of your body shall flow rivers of living water ….” That these words are also only to be understood spiritually need not be mentioned, and when it is now explained to you that the living water is My word, the water of life, which brings salvation to all souls when it is received at the source and the soul feasts on it …. then you will also be able to understand that this word of Mine resounds in the heart of him who believes in Me and enters into intimate contact with Me …. Then also that scriptural sentence will be understandable to you that the word sounds to you yourselves and you yourselves are led into brightest knowledge as soon as you just let My spirit flow into you in free will. That, what now flows towards you out of the inside, is nothing dead; it is life itself and brings true life to man, who awakens his spirit in him through a love life and through it comes into contact with Me, whose effect is exactly the influx of light and power, of a living water, which irrevocably gives you eternal life. Because who has My word, to him I Myself am present, and My presence is also guarantee for eternal life. You therefore need no instructions from outside, because these again only penetrate to the ear and leave the heart of man untouched. But out of yourselves flows the water of life, and that means as much as that My word sounds in you yourselves, if you allow it yourselves, if you fulfil all (the) condition(s), which I have attached to the hearing of the divine word. And this is called: “If you believe in Me, as the scripture says ….” Thus you must believe in Me as the divine redeemer Jesus Christ, for again and again the coming of the messiah has been announced in scripture, and you must recognize and acknowledge My descent in Jesus, then you will believe in Me, and the living faith within you will also urge you to establish an inner bond with Me, and then the divine spiritual spark within you will already make contact with the father-spirit of eternity, and the result will be the influx of brightest light and unlimited strength, which will then again take the form of My word …. of the living water …. in you obviously proves My presence …. Then you can draw from the source of life which has its origin in Me, that which helps you to eternal life flows to you from the original source Itself, for I have given you this promise and thereby already pointed to the process of the ‘outpouring of the spirit’, which My disciples experienced for the time being but which every person can experience, because through My crucifixion I acquired unusual blessings for him which make it possible that My spirit can pour itself out over those who believe in Me …. But that only a living faith was meant by it, which only became alive through love, and therefore love is the first condition that My spirit expresses itself in a person …. has let people think little of this promise, for precisely love was lacking in them, and thus it also remained dark in them, they could not be transferred back into the state of realization which requires My direct influx of love, which again can only be acquired by the human being through love …. And as long as people lack love this promise will also remain incomprehensible to them, and they will only ever relate it to the first disciples who experienced an obvious ‘pentecost’, the ‘outpouring of the spirit’, yet they will never relate this promise to themselves because they lack all faith in it. Yet My promises always apply to all people, but never to individual people only …. only conditions are always attached to them, and the fulfilment of the promises also depends on the fulfilment of the conditions …. But My word is truth, and everyone can also hold to My word, and it will sound in him himself, as soon as he just gives the divine spark in him the possibility to express itself, whatever will be, where its love establishes the union with Me Myself, so that I can pour Myself into a human heart, which is devoted to Me with its whole will …._>Amen

Hard struggle and suffering in the end time ….

B.D. 8714 from January 2nd 1964, taken from Book No. 91

All of you are in need of great spiritual help, for the time left to you until the end is only short …. Many will still be called away before, and they will have even less time at their disposal to work on their souls …. But they will not have to pass the difficult faith struggle, which requires exceedingly much strength and you therefore always need help, but which you are also allowed to experience at any time. Because only this faith struggle is the last phase, whose end will then also bring the destruction of the surface of the earth, where all life of man and animal will be ended and also the plant and rock world experiences its dissolving, because a new order is to be created and therefore a development period comes to an end and a new one starts again. Who still experiences this time, he will have to struggle extremely to pass it, because only very believing men will have the power to win over their enemies, because these men request it from Me, and I certainly do not leave them without help. For then only deeply believing people who belong to the adversary will enliven the earth, which is why the separation will then also be accomplished …. The adversary will strongly press Mine, he will try everything to take away their faith. But the latter are strong in faith and in love, and so they are also in possession of power to offer resistance, and they will also emerge as victors out of this last fight. But much help is still to be given to all men before, so that they can free themselves from the enemy of their souls, so that also still out of the camp of the enemy men change over to the ones who are Mine and are still won for My kingdom. People who are without faith because their intellect resists educated teachings are to be shown the way to the right faith, the possibility is also to be opened to them to think and to reach convinced faith in a God and creator, so that their thinking changes and they also change their way of life, which before is only earthly-worldly orientated …. I will try everything to still win quite many that they open themselves to truth, that they feel impressed and do not reject everything what they have been taught so far. But only pure truth can bring this success that man still turns to Me shortly before the end …. Only truth also carries the power in itself to accomplish a change of will. But truth is only accepted by people who are willing to love, whereas the unloving person will reject everything, no matter how logically and comprehensibly it is explained to him, for the unloving person is already a member of the adversary who does not release him either but keeps him captive because he is unloving …. And what still can increase the willingness to love of a man, that will also happen. And that is why still much disaster will pass over earth where fellowmen can show their love to those affected by the disaster, where they carry out works of love through their willingness to help, which are of inestimable benefit to their souls …. I only want to achieve one thing that love is awakened in men, because everyone is able to love, because a divine love spark slumbers in him. And that is why there is so much misfortune on earth; men are afflicted by disasters and accidents of every kind, and they are to prove themselves; they are to help where it is possible, and truly, it will not be their own harm …. For they do not find the way to Me in the well-being of the body, not in earthly joys and pleasures, but certainly in view of the misery and unhappiness of their fellow human beings, where their thoughts are nevertheless directed towards Him, Who is lord over life and death and Whose influence and help is visibly recognizable, if man himself has not caused the disaster and is to blame for it. Then men, who do not want to believe, are also not to be brought to believe. But as soon as all human influence is eliminated, they must acknowledge a higher power, and there is the possibility that they bow to this higher power. And with it already much would be achieved, because if a man acknowledges a God, then he also gives himself to Him in hours of danger and deep trouble, which become more and more frequent the closer the end is, because I want to win the souls, but not lose them to him, who is to blame for their apostasy …._>Amen

Frequent question: Why did the God of love let a human being suffer so? ….

B.D. 8715 from January 4th 1964, taken from Book No. 91

You humans could not imagine the result of your original sin had you not been redeemed …. I keep telling you that you are only able to grasp limited concepts, whereas the consequence of the original sin would have been limitless because My laws cannot ever be revoked …. And a sin committed against Me which was as immense and as grave as the apostasy from Me against better knowledge had, in accordance with divine justice, to result in equally appalling consequences, which for these beings entailed eternal wretchedness …. a state of eternal torments and darkness ….

Thus innumerable beings would have had to expect this state because My righteousness could not simply cancel an unredeemed guilt. But these beings were unable to make

Amends themselves, for it was not just a question of the beings enduring a certain amount of punishment and thereby the guilt of sin being redeemed …. the point was that the beings had sinned against Love Itself and that the atonement of guilt could therefore only be a deed of love again ….

The point was that the beings had to kindle their love within themselves, then recognise the enormity of their guilt and with heartfelt love call upon Me for forgiveness …. But the fallen beings were no longer able to do so for they were totally without love …. And they were just as incapable of settling this immeasurable guilt since they, being completely hardened, had lost their self-awareness and thus no conscious contact existed with Me anymore. Something that was created to be alive had died and was incapable of returning to Me by its own effort.

Due to My love, wisdom and strength I could indeed awaken these dead beings into a fragile life again …. but the immense original sin remained and kept the being infinitely far apart from Me, and until this guilt had been redeemed a complete return to Me was impossible. And then again, no fallen being was capable of this since they were completely without love …. I foresaw all this since eternity and still would have been unable to avoid the apostasy of the beings without removing their freedom of will …. But I also foresaw since eternity a path of return to Me for these fallen beings, and I designed a plan of return and implemented it ….

And all beings who have remained with Me are taking part in the implementation of this eternal plan of Salvation, finding supreme happiness in doing so …. They are constantly permeated by My love and in full possession of light and strength …. And their love constantly impels them to assist the fallen spiritual substance which is taking the path through the works of creation that had emerged for the purpose of their return. Their love impels them to actively create and design the forms for the fallen spiritual substance which is taking the path through creation. And thus it attains the degree of maturity when it can make its own free decision again. And yet, its immense original sin is not and would eternally not be redeemed since the beings, having once voluntarily abandoned it, are without love. And for this reason a being of light offered Itself voluntarily to redeem this sin because it was full of love, and love will shoulder everything in order to please and help where it sees misery and suffering.

If you humans could evaluate the magnitude of the original sin you would also understand why the extent of suffering, which far surpassed human strength, had to be endured for the redemption of this sin …. which a ‘human being’ would never have been able to bear had love not given Him the strength, for love is strength, and only love endured the pain and suffering which the human being Jesus had voluntarily taken upon Himself.

He knew everything and thus He also knew that there was no hope for the fallen spirits ever to return to God and become happy if the sin was not redeemed …. He offered Himself as a being of light to achieve the act of Salvation, for as a being of light He was able to realise what awaited Him, but love was greater than the fate He was approaching as a human being …. For the being of light knew that It would be in constant contact with Me, and It also knew that I would constantly provide It with strength, because My fundamental nature is love and therefore I was present in the human being Jesus with My fundamental nature …. The ‘human being’ Jesus certainly accepted an unimaginable measure of suffering and pain, yet in view of the magnitude of untold beings’ original sin such an excessive measure of suffering was necessary in order to satisfy My justice which could not be avoided …. or I would mercifully have erased the guilt for the sake of greater than great love.

The wretched state of the fallen beings was an eternal one without the act of the sacrifice of atonement …. Jesus’ suffering, however, lasted a limited period of time and Jesus gladly offered the sacrifice to Me, because He thereby delivered the whole world from the original sin, even though every being determines the moment of its salvation itself through its will. Jesus has died on the cross on behalf of all people past, present and future, and His immeasurable suffering provided all fallen beings with forgiveness of their original sin. The path of return to Me has become passable by every single being, and due to His greater than great love people have been given the opportunity again to kindle love within themselves, so that they will change their nature and the unity can take place again, which would have been impossible without the redemption of the original sin ….

Amen

God's true representatives are appointed by God Himself ….

B.D. 8716 from January 5th 1964, taken from Book No. 91

Anyone who voluntarily offers to serve Me has achieved a certain degree of love which also provides the prerequisite of being suitable for service in My vineyard. And thus, all of you who genuinely want to work for Me and My kingdom can also rest assured that I accept your service. However, many people claim to be God’s servants without being so because they lack these very prerequisites which guarantee cooperation with Me …. Yet it is not always easy for you humans to know the difference; it isn’t always easy to recognise My true servants since the others also use fine words although they have no direct instruction from Me; they present themselves as My servants yet were not called by Me to this service. And only the rightful servant, having been appointed to his office by Myself, will recognise who speaks in My name, who truly works for Me and My kingdom. For My servants have to establish a living connection between themselves and Me, the God of love has to be recognised as a Father with Whom the child can enter into direct contact …. Yet generally people, and even those who deem themselves to be leaders of people, still look for Me in the distance, they are still far away from Me, they don’t establish intimate contact, consequently, the one thing that characterises a true servant appointed by Me cannot take place, namely, that he is taught by Me directly, that he receives every instruction from Me directly, that he desires to hear My Word in heartfelt unity with Me and thus also receives the purest truth from Me ….

What nowadays still exists in the world as a spiritual movement, ecclesiastical functions and organisations, can just be considered a shell which lacks its kernel: the pure truth …. There will be people everywhere who do establish this intimate relationship with Me and who can be taught by My Word directly but they will have no success with their fellow human beings, either because they are bound to their spiritual movement and lack the resistance to oppose it when they have recognised the truth …. or they will be persecuted and prevented from working for Me and My kingdom …. For he who is My adversary and enemy has great power, yet it was granted to the adversary by people themselves, because they are all blind supporters who thoughtlessly and without reservation accepted everything they were given and no longer want to let go of it …. And thus the number of My true representatives on earth is not very large, yet they alone live in truth and therefore can also pass it on, if only people asked themselves just for once as to whether they really know the truth and, in desire of it, sincerely appealed to Me for clarification, for spiritual enlightenment …. However, as a rule they are indifferent as to what they believe, they don’t express their own opinion about the spiritual knowledge that is imparted to them …. And they don’t realise the effect of this indifference on their souls which will have to bear the consequences when they enter the kingdom of the beyond.

There are only a few who work for Me in My name, but through them I convey the pure truth to earth and also make it available for everyone who earnestly desires truth. However, I do not force anyone to accept it, just as I do not forcibly determine a human being to receive the pure truth from Me …. Everything is determined by free will which I do not infringe upon. And you who ask why I have allowed such distortion of truth to happen can find the explanation for it in this free will …. Every human being can kindle love in his heart and let it flare up ever more brightly …. And love emanates light …. So if he has the will to live in truth he can also recognise My adversary’s fabrications, who always tries to undermine the truth, and he will approach Me directly and desire clarification from Me, which I will surely send to him …. And thus people who are willing to live a life of active love will feel repelled by misguided teachings and gladly and eagerly accept the truth …. The loving person will always consider Me first before all ecclesiastical organisations, irrespective of which school of thought they represent …. He will always take the path to Me and thus join the church which I established on earth Myself, which is built on living faith …. as a result of love.

You humans should all belong to this church, this church is the only beatifying church, for this church is a spiritual community of believers and its members can come from all schools of thought …. They only need to fulfil the commandments which I gave on earth Myself: The commandments of love for God and one’s neighbour …. Then they will gain a living faith, they will enable My spirit to work within them, which is the characteristic of the church I founded on earth. Believe that I only judge you in accordance with your degree of love and believe that love also guarantees you wisdom, the realisation, the knowledge which corresponds to the truth. And where this working of the spirit cannot be found, My true representatives are not there, there are no servants whom I have called Myself and appointed to their teaching ministry …. For they have no teaching material themselves since they cannot receive it from Me directly and use what My adversary has time and again interspersed with errors …. which can no longer be considered the pure truth. Bear in mind that I Myself promised to ‘guide you into truth ….’ through My spirit. And ask yourselves why I gave you this promise since I had, after all, brought you the truth Myself when I lived on earth as Jesus the man …. From these words alone you can deduct that I knew that the truth would not remain pure for long amongst people and that I would be unable to prevent this if I didn’t want to render people’s will unfree ….

But time and again I made sure that the pure truth was conveyed to you knowing that only truth can make you blissfully happy and because I also know the state of those who enter the kingdom of the beyond with misguided spiritual knowledge. In order that you can be blissfully happy you must be able to bestow the truth upon those who find themselves in spiritual darkness …. Hence you must first possess the truth yourselves and completely free yourselves from wrong spiritual knowledge …. For you will surely understand that conditions in the material world would not be so confused if people’s heart were filled by the light of truth. And from the earthly state around you, you can draw your conclusion as to people’s low spiritual level, the sole reason for which rests in heartlessness and its resulting total spiritual blindness. Anyone who wants to become enlightened will be illuminated …. and the will of anyone who wants to remain in darkness shall be respected, yet his fate one day will be a very painful one ….

Further indication of disasters and war ….

B.D. 8717 from January 6th 1964, taken from Book No. 91

The forthcoming time will burden you extraordinarily, for world events will enter into a new phase, the restlessness amongst nations will increase, each one will consider the other as the enemy and nothing will be seriously done to establish peace even though all people will be longing for it. But materialism is the driving force of all plans and undertakings, and everyone aims to gain the greatest advantage, yet no one is fair in his thoughts and intentions and motivated by good attitudes while misfortunes increase fear and unrest, for God Himself still tries to make Himself known to people, since only the belief in Him and His might is the right counterbalance for all adversities and afflictions which you humans are approaching.

Consequently, there will also be more natural disasters, so that a higher Power will be acknowledged, for whatever people do will only ever deepen their hatred for each other but not lead to spiritual reflection. Heartlessness will take on shapes which will soon be unsurpassed, and the state of people warring against each other will therefore become ever more determined, there will be anything but peace amongst people although the great conflagration will not have yet erupted but will not fail to materialise. People themselves live their lives indifferently and only few spend thought on the fact that this state of affairs cannot continue for long. Yet the people in charge are generally spiritually blind …. there will be much talk but these will be just empty phrases which will not be followed by actions. For the earthly hardship will not be remedied where it is clearly recognisable and since the commandment of neighbourly love obviously remains unfulfilled the spiritual state cannot be good either, although they will be living in earthly prosperity and will apparently not have to go without anything …. The souls, however, will go hungry, and yet people will be unapproachable for spiritual instructions which would provide the souls with the right nourishment.

People should look around themselves open-eyed and be seriously critical of their own lives, then they will learn to understand and be able to observe the forthcoming events with the right realisation which, although they have always been announced, only now become more significant in view of the serious difficulties of those who are directly affected by it …. Yet these are the last days, and since people no longer have any faith it requires especially severe strokes of fate in order to disturb them, so that a few will find their faith in a God and Creator again to Whom they owe their existence …. in order to make them think why and for what reason this God and Creator has created them …. It is a matter of life or death for you humans, of infinite beatitude or torment and anguish, of brightest light or absolute darkness …. And thus, anyone who wants to be happy and live eternally in light has to fulfil his God and Creator’s will, he has to try to discover this will and then live a life of love for God and his fellow human being …. If, however, he does not believe in a God then his whole earthly life will have been pointless, he will constantly contravene the law of divine order, and revoking the laws of divine order will always result in chaos, and you humans are now irrevocably approaching this chaos ….

And it will not just affect you spiritually but the earthly world will also be completely turned upside down, time and again you will receive news about natural disasters, accidents and other calamities, for there will no longer be any harmony and peace in a world which is devoid of all love and faith …. But whoever has found the path to God, who endeavours to fulfil His commandments of love, who hands himself over to Him in spirit and in truth, who prays to Him and appeals for His protection, will also surely receive it, for these people belong to His small flock who will persevere until the end, who will not let their faith waver, who will stay together and carry God deep within their hearts and who will therefore be lifted up in the end if God does not recall them to His kingdom sooner, if it is His will ….

Again and again your attention will be drawn to what lies ahead and comes ever closer to you, even if you are of little faith …. you will be unable to prevent it, and you can, with absolute certainty, stand up for what is announced to you, for the point is that people should be told that everything has been taken into consideration in the Plan of eternity, that everything is dependent on God’s will Who, however, proceeds in His wisdom and love in order to accomplish the work of return to Him, and will also achieve the goal one day ….

Amen

Review of the light beings on the agony state before ….

B.D. 8718 from January 7th 1964, taken from Book No. 91

The path you covered before your embodiment as a human being you walked without ego-consciousness, and yet in the utmost agony of bondage. As a human being you are deprived of the recollection for this endlessly long time in wretchedness. But one day you will be able to look back and see everything, and only your degree of maturity will protect you from dying of horror, for you will only then be allowed to experience this retrospection when you stand in the light and then recognize everything right and good what I let come over you for the sake of your perfection. Only I Myself and all spiritual full of light know about the agonizing state of the fallen spiritual on the way of return to Me. It goes its earthly way in extreme misery and agony in a bound state, but since it is without I-consciousness, since the former “being” is dissolved into innumerable little particles, it certainly suffers unspeakably, but without being able to think about it. You will now object that only the ego-consciousness can feel agonies …. and this is probably also the case in the stage as a human being, that he is insensitive to pain as soon as he is put into an unconscious state …. But this does not apply to the spiritual without ego-consciousness bound in the works of creation …. But also the kind of agonies cannot be made comprehensible to you …. It is predominantly the state of compulsion in which the (once) created is in fullest freedom, which now causes it greatest agonies, which again are not to be understood physically, but spiritual agonies are to be assessed far worse. You can only be informed that the state of agony is unimaginable, but how these agonies are, that is not to be explained to you men, because spiritual things are not comprehensible for you, as long as you have not yet reached a certain maturity. But once your whole earth course lies behind you, and you can clearly survey it from the beginning of the apostasy until the final return to Me. But then you yourselves stand in a degree of light that you always just rejoice and thank the creator of heaven and earth, Who wanted to prepare the greatest happiness for you and therefore also did not prevent the former apostasy, but Who also makes an effort in love for every single fallen being that it again returns home to its father house. As soon as you have therefore reached this degree of light your own will is also exceedingly great to take part in this work of return, because you know about the exceedingly great misery of the still wretched and you want to make the course through the works of creation easier for him and therefore seek to promote his serving functions. Therefore you will then always only be intent on creating such outer forms for the bound, where it can serve …. Because the fallen being matures according to this. Therefore the degree of light of a redeemed being is exceedingly significant, for according to its knowledge and overview it can now always work and create only in the redeeming sense …. But between that world of light and the still bound spiritual there is now still the state of the I-conscious beings …. of men on earth and of the souls in the hereafter …. to be considered, for these I-conscious beings are always in the state of the spiritual beings on earth …. for these self-aware beings must be guided and cared for in accordance with their free will by those beings of light which are only active on those self-aware beings as executors of My will into which they have completely entered. But also this state of the still immature souls is known to them, and also now they try everything to just change the unhappy state into the state of happiness, of intimate union with Me …. But the free will of man (I-conscious beings) very often limits their willingness to help, when they openly resist spiritual help, when the inclination downwards, towards matter, is still too powerful and they do not resist it …. The being of light can only have an effect according to will, but will also not leave any opportunity unused where it can give help to men (beings). If you men would have the recollection of the time of development lying behind you …. you would not hesitate for a second and fulfil My will …. But you do this in a certain compulsion of will, out of fear and horror of a repeated walk through earth creation, and such a success I do not seek to achieve because it meant a restriction for unlimited happiness, because the being could no longer become perfect because its will would not be free …. But again and again you are admonished, again and again it is held up to you, which dreadful time of development lies behind you, and you have to believe in it, because no proofs can be given to you for it. And one day you will also be able to understand the great significance of your earthly life as a human being, and you will recognize that your God’s and father’s love was constantly concerned about you in order to release you from the bound state, because you can only be happy in unrestricted freedom …._>Amen
