Political priests intrigue
13th December 1847
[1] So then write a little word to My dear Andreas H.-W., according to which he is to act quite confidently and in the best of courage! And the right effect will not remain outstanding.
[2] I have it for you, dear Andr. H.-W., yes already said in the previous little word addressed to you, that this wrong species will now blow up all mines and leave no means untried by which it seems to achieve it’s dark and domineering purpose. But don't worry about that! Because see, everything, what it now seizes, leads it only one step closer to it’s downfall, thus, as it is precisely My will. Because see, this snake will tear itself apart with it’s own teeth!
[3] But so that you know how to judge and behave in all future events, which can and will also occur, take note of what I will now tell you!
[4] It will come about that these servants of Baal, longing for revenge, since they cannot find any just reason to suspect the state office and the magistrate like the police at court, they will take action themselves, instigate riots and demonstrative mutinies against themselves in secret, have this and that done to them, and then say "See, these are the fruits which are being perpetrated on us disciples of God by all the worldly high state authorities! This is done by a godless state office, a magistrate whose officials from A to Z are all blasphemous, damnable heretics who all belong to hell and the devil! And such more cries to the stupid, blind people through sermons, in secret, in the confessionals, as well as possibly to the harmless school youth during the catechism lessons.
[5] So they will not fail to hire hirelings who will offer a "goodbye" to this city and it’s secular authorities as well as it’s executives in other cities, and in places where such demonstrative behavior must usually be noticed by any courtier.
[6] That is why I recently ordered you to strictly monitor these servants of Baal, because I see and know very well what this wickedness is able to do to cool it’s vengeance and thereby achieve it’s domineering purpose.
[7] So they will also send in anonymous papers with all sorts of distortions about the funeral (*1) that was not done according to their wishes, in order to make suspect the secular authorities of this city and thus to subject them to some kind of responsibility, and possibly even to take them out of office, or at least enable the head of state to grant them the power to take a second so-called living confession from such "heretical" state- and city officials, in that such officials do not visit churches and even less confess and thus church and state can no longer know in what wicked hands the worldly authority is.
[8] But I say and advise you: Draw up a just complaint, have it verified by a large number of witnesses, and seek to enable the governor to do the same; and if he wouldn't dare, do it yourself! Such a well-founded complaint is submitted to the highest place and asks at your expense for a completely impartial court commission, so you will cut off the paths for the Baal servants on which they are diligently trying to suspect you at court – which they will not succeed, of course, since this is My concern.
[9] For those high-ups now see quite well that there is a big louse in their furs in this political clergy. But they cannot get rid of it because it has eaten it’s way into the fibers of their own life. If it is killed (that is, in it’s dark work), they fear being killed with it. And if you let this louse proliferate in your life organism, then you will also see that such a louse has to eat you in the end.
[10] But that is why they are also silent and say nothing about the whole matter and just wait and see whether in the end, after a while, the balance will give the greater decisive factor.
[11] The priests feel how much less their weight is compared to the righteous that is in your scales. But that is why they are now carrying all sorts of filth into their empty shell with all their might in order to destroy your just weight. But their bowl is glowing with anger and soon consumes what they put in it. So they haven't done anything yet!
[12] Do, My dear friend, but only what I have advised you to do! And be very vigilant here for any mutinous smelling movement! Punish strictly and fairly everyone who openly thinks about demonstrations, that are always designed, and discusses the implementation of them! And spare no- one there, neither clergy nor secular – so that they won't find anything against you and then say you are lukewarm or even secretly agree with the demonstrators. For behold, all of this comes from them!
[13] If a people fights for their rights themselves, My will awakens them to a large extent – and not in contemptuous nightclubs that always come from the "blacks". Such people must be vigorously resisted.
[14] It would also be good if the clergy in the country were monitored more closely by the county authorities than they have been up to now. Otherwise these clergymen incite the rural people in their parishes to demonstrations and will then put the blame on the capital and say: “Look, those are the fruits when a country has heretics among the highest officials! Exempla trahunt! (*2) Because in the capital, the clergy state office and magistrate did not obey us, the common country folk do the same!"
[15] In short, this perverse species must now be put under strict eye and ear, otherwise it will dig under the cover of it’s sheepskin like a water vole in the dark and can cause great damage to the land. Because I cannot and must not break their will with My omnipotence. And My light would kill them like the glow of lightning would kill crabs, if they do not hide in their swamp holes before the weather came.
[16] Therefore I advise you here true wisdom, which often is able to do more than an army of many hundred thousand warriors.
[17] But I will only watch this species for a very short time to see whether it improves. But then I will also let an "army" advance against them, as the world has not yet seen!
[18] But over all things be full of good cheer. I will always be at your side and will not let a hair of your head be bent. As wise as these are, I will certainly be as well! In all of this, My dear Andr. H.-W., you will be fully secure! I say that, the all-seeing Jesus, to you! Amen.
