BERTHA DUDDE - AUTOBIOGRAPHY

I have been writing messages, received through the inner Word since June 15, 1937. In answer to the

many requests of my friends I will give you a picture of my earthly life, a short explanation of what I

received spiritually, and my own feelings about all this.

I was born April 1, 1891, the second oldest daughter of an artist of Liegnitz in Schlesien, today’s

Poland I had a normally peaceful childhood, with six sisters in our parent home. I learned the cares

of life at an early age. The desire to make money to help my parents made me learn the trade of a

seamstress. As the financial needs of my parents continued, so the burden, and in this way I made

myself useful.

My parents belonged to different denominations. Father was a Protestant -Mother a Catholic. We

children were brought up in the Catholic faith, but never experienced pressure or force to follow the

practices of the church so that each child in later years could pursue their own chosen course.

I myself was religious, but could not accept the doctrine of the Catholic system, although I respected

the church. I could not represent something on the outside that my inner conscience had not

accepted. So I did not continue to attend church, heard little preaching and had no knowledge of the

Bible. I did not read any religious books or scientific literature and did not join any other group or

religious sect.

Anyone knowing the Catholic teaching knows what a conscious struggle one finds himself in when

he wants to loosen himself from it. I also was not spared from this. But the question as to what is the

Truth, and where it is to be found, remained.

Often when I prayed the Lord's prayer I would beseech the Lord to allow me to find HIS kingdom.

This prayer was answered in June 15, 1937, as I prayed quietly and waited on the inner voice. In this

attitude I persisted often, for a wonderful peace came over me and thoughts which came to my heart,

not my head, gave me comfort and strength.

Still I did not know that these thoughts were given to me, until in a strange dream I experienced

something, which later proved to be the Truth and caused me to write down these thoughts.

So on a certain day as I listened inwardly a stream of words came to me, which I wrote down. This

was the first message I wrote which started like this: "In the beginning was the Word, 'a TE-

DEUM' to the Creator of Heaven and Earth."

Then came doubt, ….did you write this by yourself? In short, I have wrestled, prayed and gone

through many struggles, but again and again the words came to me like a stream, a wisdom, which

made me tremble. Then GOD HIMSELF took away my doubts. HE answered me and I

acknowledged HIM as our Father, in HIS Word. My faith grew, doubt diminished, and I received

and wrote daily.

The contents of the writings were beyond my understanding. Phrases, which I had never heard of, or

read about, strange and scientific expressions and references continually came to me. Then came

unheard of expressions of the Heavenly Father's Love giving refuge and providing enlightenment to

all the questions of life.

The "Words" came to me in the following manner: After sincere prayer and a short period of

composure I listened inwardly. Thoughts then followed coming to my mind, clearly, distinctly, and

the words flowed smoothly always three or four, one after another, like writing a radio

announcement or a weather report, slowly so that I could easily keep pace, writing line after line.

Now, I write the words in shorthand as a dictation without having any constructive or intellectual

part in it. I am in no way in a 'trance', nor do I even form the sentences, but it comes to me one word

at a time, neither do I understand the context while I am writing the words down.

Page 5: Jesus is the Christbd 1567 confess jesus christ before the world… divine protection bd 1762 battle against christ’s teaching… persecution of those who confess him bd 2929 redemption

5

After days, sometimes weeks, I transcribe the shorthand writings into longhand without changing or

correcting a syllable. Each dictation takes about half an hour. I must stress that this could not happen

forcibly or in a state of ecstasy. It all takes place simply and consciously, without any excitement or

influence of my own will. I can interrupt myself at any time and finish the sentence after hours or

days without reading the previous writing the dictated words continue again.

My will is under no compulsion, all that I desire is to serve GOD and do what HIS Will wants me to

do.

I can truthfully say that I was led into this Truth, and these concepts were, in all respect foreign to

me. It was only after years that I found confirmation of what I received, when I came to know the

writings of Jacob Lorber. No one can imagine my joy when I discovered the literature of Jacob

Lorber; "The Great Gospel of John" and the "Youth of CHRIST" Then I understood that other people

were given the Word of the Lord, that GOD had spoken to HIS children at all times and that GOD

will continue to do this in HIS endless Love and Mercy.

I found in Lorber' s writings the same as was given to me. I often could not understand the word that

came to me, but in HIS Love the Heavenly Father gave me the explanation. How wonderful are the

innumerable manifestations in which the Father displays HIS exceeding great goodness.

It became clear to me that my short education, due to lack of money and my lack of time to read

good books or visit performances, became my advantage. I could now concentrate on my work from

early morning to late at night, and each day I received that precious spiritual Word without knowing

for whom I received it.

It is because of my ignorance of the Bible and the Catholic doctrine that I accepted the Word from

Above without resistance. In my experience an earnest Catholic or Protestant whose knowledge is

rooted in dogmatic theories is too much bound to their dogma to accept and embrace Divine

revelations without resistance.

Still there are scientists at several faculties who earnestly discuss these Divine teachings with

increasing interest. Their interest does not only concern the irrefutable explanation of the origin of

matter and the possibility of its dissolution, but also the principle of the wrong teachings of different

religions, systems and confessions. In the messages I received these errors are recorded and everyone

is urged to give instructions concerning these doctrinal errors whenever there is an opportunity.

But everyone is free to take the LORD' s Word to heart or not. But whoever understands the spirit in

the Father's Word and does not act accordingly makes the distance between himself and the Father

even greater. When he does not follow the warning words of Love he puts himself inevitably under

the law. He will also in the same measure lack in Grace, disregarding GOD' s commandment of

Love.

In GOD' s Grace people are led anew to the gospel, which emphatically points out the purpose of

man's being. For the merciful Love of GOD seeks to save all who still can be saved be fore the

turning point comes. And it will come. The end-time of which seers and prophets have proclaimed is

now here. According to the revelations given to me, the LORD does not differentiate between HIS

children. "Come ye all to ME" sounds HIS call and blessed is he who hears HIS call and follows

HIM. GOD Loves HIS children. HE wants to make them all happy, even when they do not want to

know HIM.

Recorded Nov. 22, 1953

‘‘‘‘NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER,FATHER,FATHER,FATHER,

BUT BY ME’BUT BY ME’BUT BY ME’BUT BY ME’ John 14:6

‘No man cometh unto the Father but by Me’. The extreme importance of these words explains also the

necessity of leading to the faith in Jesus Christ those people who are not yet believers, or exhorting those to

a living faith to which the knowledge of Jesus Christ is al-ready present. For no one can reach ME who

does not recognize MYSELF in Jesus Christ. (BD 6579)

***

The death of CHRIST on the cross was the purchase prize for everlasting life; all guilt has been atoned by

it. But one thing is unresistingly demanded, namely that man acknowledges this work for Salvation so that

his guilt also belongs to one for which CHRIST paid through HIS DEATH on the cross. Where it not so,

the guilt of man would remain unchanged and, after his death, be taken over into the spiritual domain as a

burden, with which man could never cope in all eternities; for he cannot muster the will to save himself.

Therefore, JESUS CHRIST is the only way to everlasting life! Without HIM, there is only PERDITION,

but with HIM SALVATlON. Without HIM man is powerless and his will is turned away from GOD. But

with HIM he is striving towards God and can receive the POWER from HIM, namely, the fortified will,

which JESUS bought for him on the CROSS. For this reason, JESUS CHRIST is the SAVIOR of the

WORLD, the Savior of all men who put themselves and their guilt before HIS feet, giving themselves over

to HIM in faith and asking for HIS help. For these JESUS CHRIST brought the SACRIFICE on the

CROSS in order that they may be freed from all guilt and sin. (BD 2929)

***

You all, who dwell in dark regions - be it on earth or in the beyond - you are unhappy creatures without

peace, light and power. Those are the effects of sin, which burden you since eternities; during your earth

life you still enlarged them by your loveless actions. Before you have not come free from this guilt of sins,

your condition cannot improve. But you, yourselves, can have the will so that the guilt may be taken away

from you, and then you can attain to light and happiness! Therefore have the will to become freed from the

fetter, which burdens you and is torturous for you. Resolve to trust in the ONE WHO can make you free

and ask HIM to take charge of you. You know about the ONE who has offered HIMSELF on the CROSS

for the guilt of your sins. You all know about JESUS CHRIST, but not all believe in HIS work of salvation.

- And yet HE is the ONLY ONE who can give you help in your distress, who can lift you up out of the

depth, who can, and will give you light and life, but you yourselves must first call HIM and ask HIM for

help. Who does not believe in HIM will not address HIM, and he will remain in darkness for eternities….

for, without HIM there is no way to happiness! (BD 6624)

***

Since My crucifixion therefore, your redemption depends on whether you acknowledge this My

redemption-work of the Man Jesus - on whether you believe that your God and Creator descended to earth

in order to carry out the work of your redemption in the Man Jesus. (BD 6663)

B.D. 0756, January 25, 1939

VENERATION OF THE VIRGIN MARY… THE BIRTH OF JESUS

Jesus' life on earth required a normal birth. The Deity wanted to incarnate Himself in the body of a human being on

earth, consequently this body had to have a natural origin.... it had to come forth from a woman's womb. However, in

Jesus' time everything extraordinary was quickly explained.... as being in cohorts with the devil.... A natural explanation

was certainly searched for yet if it couldn't be found by simple means this very conclusion sufficed and thus gave

countless people the reputation of being God-deserters. Judging by human standards Jesus' birth was likewise an act

which lacked all preconditions and, for this reason, the same explanation was intended to be applied to a virgin which

everyone knew to be exceptionally devout.

The extraordinary occurrences at the birth certainly struck many as strange, yet most attached little importance to them.

And so only a small circle received the news about an extremely unusual kind of birth.... about the awakening of a life

which lacked all natural prerequisites and was therefore an event caused by God's will and omnipotence. This was

subsequently exploited in a way that people used the figure of the mother Mary to create a being which receives their

veneration, devotion and love to such an extent that it detracts the human being from his most important task on earth....

to establish contact with the Lord and Saviour Himself.... This applies to the exceptional demands for intercession as

well as the illogical devotion which lacks all justification, for the mother of Jesus was chosen as a result of her piety....

but by no means aware of the immense grace which was bestowed upon her.... she was God's chosen servant and

therefore only God alone deserves the honour, for all beings are His work. AMEN

Bertha Dudde, 1567, August 14, 1940

Confess Jesus Christ before the world…. Divine protection.…

Whoever declares his faith in Jesus Christ puts his life into God’s hands, even if the world and its power threaten him

with a most bitter battle indeed, since the mere articulation of the divine name emits strength. The Saviour’s love blesses

all who give themselves to Him, i.e. who believe in Him and keep His commandments. Jesus’ life serves only a few

people as a guiding principle of their life. However, anyone who tries to follow the Lord in all things will soon become

enlightened and will not want to renounce the divine Saviour and Redeemer because His love expresses itself so

comprehensively that it perpetually increases the human being’s longing for the Father in Heaven. It is like an

unceasing rain which soaks the parched soil with His indispensable Word that comes from above to the people on earth

and forever urges them to acknowledge Him, Whom the world wants to deny. And the human being who so obviously

feels God’s strength should support this Word, he should speak frankly and freely about everything the Lord has taught

on earth Himself.

First the person should do everything to prepare the human heart to receive the truth, which is mentally conveyed to the

person from above. The Lord Himself says ‘Whoever confesses Me before men, him I will also confess before My

Father.…’ Thus Christ gave people the duty to defend His name so that anyone who does may likewise receive divine

protection when he requests help from the Heavenly Father. Whoever upholds the divine name will be involved in the

fight against Him, and the world will attempt to remove every memory of His activity on earth from people. People will

be threatened with harsh penalties which are intended to undermine the faith in Jesus Christ as Saviour of the world….

And the human being will have to struggle considerably in order to stand firm against all suggestions of evil minded

influences. Only that person will be strong and free enough to speak on behalf of Jesus Christ who, in faithful prayer to

the Lord, conveys his distress and worry and asks for protection and strength. Because the Lord grants this to all of His

defenders when they confess Him as the divine Lord and Redeemer to the people.

Here the divine might will provide visible proof that it is stronger than worldly power, it will guard each earthly child

irrespective how it confesses the Lord and Saviour. Consequently the human being need not worry that he could be

harmed by the earthly power if he is a supporter of the true Christianity. Jesus Christ can never be eradicated from the

world of hatred and heartlessness even when the fight is openly conducted. Anyone who loves his earthly life will find

his heart beating anxiously and will observe the worldly power’s law and hence betray his Lord and Saviour for the sake

of earthly success. However, anyone who does not fear death will openly confess the name of Him, Who has redeemed

the world from its sins. And worldly power wants him to do penance for this.… But the Father in heaven shields the

earthly child with His hands and to the adversary it now appears as if superhuman forces are fighting against him, and

by the unmistakable calm in spite of threats he recognises the strength of the divine Word and the loving care of the

heavenly Father Who protects His Own if they confess Him before the world.… Amen

Bertha Dudde 1762, January 2, 1941

Battle against Christ’s teachings…. Persecution of those who confess Him.…

It is indisputably better to confess before the world to belong to the church of Christ than to be subject to the adversary’s

will and to deny Christ. For whoever is powerful in the world has nevertheless no power to stop what God will send

against him. Whoever denies Christ, denies God, even if he mentions His name as proof of his faith.… For if he is

profoundly faithful he will also recognise the Deity of Christ, because then he has love and love affirms Jesus Christ as

the Son of God and Saviour of the world. This insight is the result of profound faith. However, unbelief prevents the

human being from recognising the Deity of Jesus. Therefore, where Jesus Christ is rejected there is evidence of the

human beings’ unbelief and such people belong to the world which openly opposes Jesus Christ. And the world will

demand to reject Him completely, it wants His name no longer mentioned, it wants to erase all memory of Him and raise

subsequent generations in ignorance; it wants to destroy everything that refers to Him and thereby suppress the

knowledge of Him and His works. And thus the battle erupts.…

Those who follow Him will defend His name, confess Him to the world and readily speak on His behalf and of His

teachings.… They will be pursued and yet patiently endure persecution for His name’s sake, they will receive strength

from above and the more they are attacked the more eagerly they will proclaim His teachings. God’s power will visibly

be with them, his love protects them and the mighty of the world will have to realise that their power is futile. They will

have to acknowledge a greater power Whose work is evident. They become outraged and now strive to impose their will

by any means and for that reason they shall be punished by God’s hand.… For when human beings arrogantly want to

fight against God Himself they are completely controlled by the adversary and then God will put an end to this…. Hence

the time will come when laws upon laws are endorsed and people will be placed into a position to choose for or against

Christ.… The supporters of the world will let go of Him for mere rewards; they will gain earthly advantages and sell

their soul. And many will give up what should be their holiest possession.… the divine Redeemer and Saviour of the

world.…Yet those who suffer persecution for His name’s sake will be blessed a thousand fold because He Himself will

approach them and lead them into battle and victory will be where He Himself is in command. And even if it seems as

if the enemies’ intentions might succeed, the battle only lasts a short time, but those who fight for the name of Jesus will

be victorious.… Amen

B.D. 2929, October 17, 1943

REDEMPTION OF GUILT WITHOUT JESUS CHRIST IS NOT POSSIBLE

The magnitude of a person's guilt remains unchanged as long as he does not acknowledge the work of salvation by

Christ, that is, he must himself amortize his guilt to the last little. Quite alone he has to come to an understanding with it;

he has to make amends through eternities, for the guilt of man is immeasurably great!

The sins that he has committed on earth, which already suffice to push the soul aside from the face of God for endlessly

long periods, are not the only ones, but it is the one-time rebellion against God, the Great Guilt, which cannot be

expiated during an earth-life but must therefore be taken along into eternity in order to find some time…. its atonement

there.

Through eternities and eternities the being must languish in darkness…. miss his liberty and endure a condition of most

torturous imprisonment. For eternities he incurs the loss of the Divine Sun of Grace, enduring most bitter distress,

because - of his own will -he remains in resistance to God and can never be forced to give up his will. He must therefore

expiate his guilt himself since he did not free himself from it by his own will. The DIVINE WILL cannot liberate him,

because this would be in fullest contradiction to the Wisdom and Love of God.

Therefore, one who has fallen away from God is punishing himself as long as he does not accept salvation through

JESUS CHRIST, not acknowledging Sacrifice.

Each of his sins will be forgiven, each restriction taken away from him and each atonement spared, if a person places

himself under the cross of Christ and suffers to be saved by His Blood which JESUS CHRIST shed for all people and

their guilt.

HE brought the great sacrifice out of love for man, since HE knew of the endlessly long road of suffering in the beyond

and because HE had compassion on account of the great distress of the beings on earth and in the beyond, HE wanted to

shorten their distress and wanted to atone their guilt in order to make them everlastingly happy.

The death of CHRIST on the cross was the purchase prize for everlasting life; all guilt has been atoned by it. But one thing is unresistingly demanded, namely that man acknowledges this work for Salvation so that his guilt also belongs to

one for which CHRIST paid through HIS DEATH on the cross. Where it not so, the guilt of man would remain

unchanged and, after his death, be taken over into the spiritual domain as a burden, with which man could never cope in

all eternities; for he cannot muster the will to save himself.

Therefore, JESUS CHRIST is the only way to everlasting life! Without HIM, there is only PERDITION, but with HIM

SALVATlON. Without HIM man is powerless and his will is turned away from GOD. But with HIM he is striving

towards God and can receive the POWER from HIM, namely, the fortified will, which JESUS bought for him on the

CROSS. For this reason, JESUS CHRIST is the SAVIOR of the WORLD, the Savior of all men who put themselves and

their guilt before HIS feet, giving themselves over to HIM in faith and asking for HIS help. For these JESUS CHRIST

brought the SACRIFICE on the CROSS in order that they may be freed from all guilt and sin. AMEN

B.D. 3277, October 2, 1944

DID JESUS CHRIST REDEEM ALL PEOPLE, OR ARE ALL PEOPLE REDEEMED?

People read the Word but they do not understand its meaning, and thus misguided teachings due to false interpretations

are given by those who want to serve Me, if they do not sincerely unite with Me and first ask for an explanation and,

when they receive it, accept it without resistance. People single-mindedly adhere to My Word that I have

delivered mankind from sin by My crucifixion… But they do not comprehend the essence of the Word, they do not

comprehend the significance of the act of Salvation. Consequently they do not understand what the human being has to

do himself in order to join the flock of those who have been delivered from their guilt of sin by My blood.

I have died for all human beings... providing they want to accept My act of Salvation… I have not imposed any

restrictions, but people set limitations when they do not acknowledge My act of Salvation. And these people exclude

themselves from the circle of those for whom I have died on the cross. Consequently, only the sins of those can be

forgiven who allow themselves to be saved through their faith in Me and My death on the cross, whereas the sins of

those who reject Me and My act of Salvation are not forgiven, because they do not allow themselves to be purified by

My blood, and because they do not want to belong to those for whom I have died. Once again human free will is

decisive, and I abide by this free will. If people’s guilt of sin were forgiven without faith in Me and My act of love, then

the human being would be placed into a state of freedom against his own will… But this is in opposition to My order

because it counteracts My justice as well as My love, since the person will not use this state to bond with Me nor will he

ever regret his sin…

My Word is truth, and no untruth can ever be found in the fact that I have died for all human beings, that I have

redeemed all people from their sins… But their free will has to decide whether they want to be redeemed, whether they

want to accept My work of love, because I do not determine the will… Therefore all of humanity could be free of sin if

it believed in My act of Salvation, just as it is and will remain in deepest darkness and subject to their sins if it rejects

Me as Redeemer of humanity. And for this reason most of humanity now lives in sin, it is without forgiveness because

it no longer acknowledges Me, and thus My act of Salvation has become ineffective for humanity.

Hence the ‘forgiveness of sin’ should not be misunderstood, it is not applicable to those who are completely apart from

Me; not that I Am pushing them away, instead they are distancing themselves from Me, they are fleeing from Me, Who

is approaching them and constantly asks for their souls. I provide them with a gift of grace which liberates them from

their sin and their guilt, but if they reject this it has no effect on them because they belong to those who are fighting on

behalf of My adversary and who are therefore still controlled by him until they allow themselves to be saved by Me…

And thus it is wrong to describe My act of Salvation in a way which suggests that all people are beneficiaries of that

which their free will could certainly acquire; but which free will can also throw away by rejecting it and by being totally

without faith. Only the person who accepts My gift of grace will also become free of his sins, because I have carried his

guilt for him, I have suffered for him and accepted the crucifixion.

Although I have died for everyone, not everyone accepts Me... I took everyone’s guilt upon My shoulders, but not

everyone feels guilty and therefore does not place their burden upon Me. And thus they will also be unable to purge

their guilt, since it is too immense to do so themselves, because now they are also adding the guilt of rejecting My

love… But how can they hope for the forgiveness of their sins? How can people believe that they can become free of all

guilt without their own contribution, without their own will?...

My love’s sacrifice for you, the purification of all sin through My blood is an incomprehensibly significant blessing for

you humans. But you must also want to receive My love, you should not reject it, otherwise it cannot take effect on you,

otherwise I cannot redeem the guilt of sin, otherwise your sins will stay with you until you change your mind and

acknowledge Me as your divine Saviour, Who died on the cross to redeem you. AMEN

PERSONIFICATION OF GOD

The belief in a spiritually tangible Deity by no means implies a personified Deity, for this reason the human being

should not have a narrow idea of God, Who is omnipresent and beyond time and space. He permeates everything with

His spirit, the whole universe, the whole spiritual kingdom.... and therefore He is not conceivable as a person who,

according to human comprehension, is spatially limited. Instead, a personification of God must be completely avoided if

the human being wants to come anywhere near visualising God as the highest and most perfect Being of God. God has

indeed made Himself visible to His living creations in a human form by permeating Jesus' body with His Divinity and

showed Himself in His transfigured state to people, so that they were able to visualise the eternal Deity in Jesus Christ.

Yet once the soul has discarded its body and enters the kingdom of light it will realise that the eternal Deity can never be

grasped by human intellect and that the embodiment in Jesus Christ was intended to awaken or strengthen the belief in a

spiritually tangible Deity in people during their earthly life, otherwise they would find it difficult to have faith which,

however, it is necessary to have in order to establish a connection with God through prayer....

Thus the eternal Deity became visible to people in Jesus Christ and in merciful love It tries to make Itself accessible to

people in order to encourage them in establishing their contact with Itself. Jesus Christ was the form which sheltered the

eternal Deity for the people on earth.... In the spiritual kingdom the same form will be spiritually visible by those beings

which have attained the degree of maturity that enables them to behold God.... But this spiritually tangible Deity is

present everywhere and therefore never expended in a limited form. Hence It cannot be addressed as a personal Deity

either, because this concept is only used for earthly life, for the human being himself who, as an isolated individual

being within the universe, claims for himself the acknowledgment of being a personality, thus a person always has to be

understood to be a human creature. That this concept can never be applied to the eternal Deity is due to the fact that God

is a spirit.... but the spirit is never something restricted, something bound in a form, once it is perfect. The supreme

Perfection is therefore limitless beyond all comprehension and permeates the whole of infinity; it is omnipresent

because its fundamental substance is love which likewise is not restricted and therefore also not conceivable as a form.

The human being's intellectual capacity is limited, he is unable to visualise anything but earthly things as long as he is

still spiritually unenlightened. And therefore he tries to imagine the eternal Deity as a person as soon as he believes in a

spiritually tangible God, in a God to Whom he can pray.

And God accommodated this purely human desire by embodying Himself in Jesus Christ, that is, by demonstrating how

a human being living a God-pleasing life can unite with God on earth and thus become as one with Him.... He wanted to

show people the path to achieve the final goal, the total unification with God. The emanation of the Divine Being

completely permeated the man Jesus, consequently only the external frame, the physical form, was human, but His soul

and spirit were divine, they had entirely united with God again from Whom they had come forth. Yet the eternal Deity

did not expend Itself, because it is impossible for the most perfect Being ever to be limited within a form. Nevertheless

the eternal Deity is something spiritually tangible, that is, it is spiritual strength which has to be granted will and faculty

of thought, thus existing as a being with Whom the human being can also make heartfelt contact by using his will and

his thoughts. For the human being's will and thoughts are not tied to the external form either but are part of the spiritual

essence which is embodied in the human form. Once the physical shell falls away, the soul, the spiritually tangible

being, remains capable of thinking and wanting, but according to its state of maturity the ability can merely be weaker

or stronger, whereas the eternal Deity, as the most perfect Being, executes Its will and Its thoughts in profound wisdom

and inconceivable strength.

The human physical form is just the means to an end for the duration of his earthly life. Yet anyone believing in the

immortality of the soul will also understand that the external form, the person, will not be required for the soul's

continued existence. Nevertheless, the soul remains conscious of itself as an individual being, even when it has joined

equally mature souls.... just as the eternal Deity will likewise remain the highest and most perfect Being for the most

elevated beings of light which have entered into union with It.... which are totally united with God and yet are

inexpressibly happy in their own existence because they always and forever receive and feel God's strength of love

Who, as eternal Father, is in intimate contact with them. AMEN

WHOEVER SEES ME SEES THE FATHER (JOHN 14:9)

Whoever sees Me sees the Father, because the Father and I are one.... I brought the Word to people but they did not

recognise it as God’s Word, as the expression of His infinite love for His living creations. They looked at it as human

word, given to them by Me from Myself, because they were dark inside and did not know about God’s working within

the human being.... Hence they could no longer hear God’s voice themselves, which could have provided evidence to

them of God’s presence, of His essence and his close relationship with people. I, however, wanted to return this

knowledge to them, I wanted to introduce them to the strength of love and faith, so that they might become noticeably

aware of God’s presence if they heeded My teaching.... I came to them as a mediator sent by God to proclaim His Word

to people of good will in accordance with His instruction. The eternal Father-Spirit took abode in Me to visibly work

through Me.... Everything I said and did was His work, His will, His strength and His love.... I was merely the form

through which God expressed Himself, or His presence would have been unbearable for the people who were living in

profound spiritual darkness.... And the form which veiled the Father-Spirit also belonged to Him, for everything within

Me aspired towards the Father-Spirit, albeit it was a mortal shell like any other human being.... But because of the spirit

within Itself It became immortal....

I was Jesus, the man, but only in My external appearance, because everything in and about Me was spiritualised by love,

it was united with the eternal love to which I was inseparably connected since eternity. God as a spirit is not visible to

human beings, nevertheless He made Himself visible to them in Me as a person, He adopted My physical garment and

showed Himself in it to people, identifying Himself as wisdom, love and omnipotence. And to those who believed in Me

My work on earth gave evidence of the Deity through miracles, which were only possible to God and which My will

could accomplish because God was in Me, and thus His will, wisdom and strength permeated Me.... Hence there was no

further separation between God and My mortal body, It had become one with Him, He occupied it completely, He

Himself walked on earth in My external form, which in turn was a work of His love in order to make Himself accessible

to people.... And I brought His Word to them.... He Himself spoke through Me, He, the eternal Word Himself, had

become flesh in order to make Himself heard by people. Because they no longer knew the mystery of eternal love, the

eternal Father-Spirit, Whose Word establishes the bond with people....

They no longer knew about the strength of the Word which draws everything towards Itself when it can become

effective in a person.... They did not know that every human being could hear the divine Word Itself in himself if he

shaped himself to love in accordance with God’s will, in order to receive the divine love Itself.... For this reason God

came to earth Himself, and He brought them the knowledge again which should release the people from their

darkness.... And people did not recognise Him, they pursued Me, Who sheltered the Divine inside of Me, as a human

being.... And I had to allow it to happen in order to safeguard their free will. I brought the Word to them but they did not

accept it, and they did not recognise in Me the One Who permeated Me completely.... They saw Me but not God in Me,

Who did not conceal Himself from their view but performed signs and miracles in order to make the blind see again....

But to those who believed He revealed Himself in His love, wisdom and omnipotence.... And they saw Him rise to

heaven in full glory, they saw His shell spiritualising itself before their eyes and in radiating light ascend to the kingdom

which had been its home since eternity. AMEN

LIBERATION FROM THE DEPTH THROUGH JESUS CHRIST

The cross of Christ is the sign of hope for all those who are fallen and who feel unhappy in their condition - be it on

earth or in the beyond.

The cross of CHRIST shows them that there still is a salvation, a way out, along which one has to walk in order to get

out of the depth and the domain of darkness into the morning or light.

The cross of CHRIST is the signpost upwards, which never leads astray.

Reason: the ONE who died on the CROSS out of love for sinful humanity is the ONE WHO opened up this road. HE

has paid the purchase-prize with HIS BLOOD for the souls who find themselves in the depth. Every soul can utilize this

favor.

This road is now open upwards for every soul, provided that it has selected JESUS CHRIST as its goal that it wants out

of the depth to reach HIM!

Then it has a claim to salvation! The Divine SAVIOR HIMSELF lifts it out of the depth. Then its sins are washed away

with HIS BLOOD. The guilt of sin is removed, and the work of salvation has not been in vain for this soul.

JESUS CHRIST has died for all men: for the people of this present time, past and future. HE even descended to hell!

HE has made the graces of the work of salvation valid also for the souls of the depth; likewise in the beyond there is a

salvation for the souls, but never without HIM!

Only HIS BLOOD, shed for the sins, can make good again what the soul has sinned. HIS FORGIVENESS must be

asked for. In the spiritual domain HE must be recognized as the Savior from sin, otherwise liberation out of darkness is

impossible.

The man JESUS has achieved on earth an immeasurably great work of love, which is still effective on the other side.

HIS Compassion follows those souls who have gone from this earth unsaved. Yet there the soul must want salvation on

its own as on earth, that it may find salvation through JESUS CHRIST, that HE may have compassion with it in its

distress, that HIS LOVE may seize it and lift it out of the depth.

Therefore, to know about JESUS CHRIST and HIS WORK OF SALVATION as well as to believe in it is absolutely

necessary. This knowledge must be brought to the souls in case they have not yet heard of it on earth.

But this work is by far more difficult there than on earth, because the souls of darkness have little knowledge and

possess only little strength of recognition, wherefore they cannot be so easily taught. Yet their condition is not hope1ess

when they find themselves in distress and ask for help in order to be freed from their present situation.

If not quite impenitent, the soul can be helped by intercession and loving instruction through thoughts. A knowledge

gained in that way will enable the soul to direct its thoughts independently to JESUS CHRIST, the DIVINE SAVIOR,

and to implore HIM.

Each of such calls in faith and trust in HIS help will be heard. Now the road upwards has begun and each step is taken

with HIS help. There is a salvation out of hell, but never without JESUS- CHRIST!

The souls in the beyond must learn of this, otherwise they will never direct their thoughts to HIM WHO ALONE can

bring them salvation out of their distress, WHO in HIS Love and Compassion is always ready to alleviate the distress

and to change the torturous condition into a condition of happiness.

But always the will of the individual is necessary. To change the will requires much intercession on the part of those

people who are in belief and love; wherefore they can help all those who are still unsaved. AMEN

FIGHTING AGAINST ONESELF ON EARTH

My life on earth was full of struggles and temptations and it is wrong to assume that My divine soul had protected Me

from it, that My way of life could not have been anything but good because I was the Son of God, Who had descended

from earth to redeem humanity…. My earthly life as a human being differed in no way from that of any other human

being, yet I was exceptionally and severely bothered by temptations because Satan used every means to prevent My

mission. Furthermore, My soul was so profoundly sensitive that it was both deeply affected by beauty as well as

exceptionally tormented by evil and impurity. It was receptive to every impression, which is also the reason why the

world with its attractions and enticements tempted Me so frequently before My real mission began. I had to endure a

tough fight to stay victorious over the one who wanted to own My flesh in order to render the soul incapable for the act

of Salvation. And thus My suffering started a long time before already, the body had to be deadened to achieve

spiritualisation with the soul. I was a human being in the midst of people…. And My state as a human being meant as

much as being afflicted by human passions and longings which I had to fight in order to become an abode for the

Divinity, Which could not allow any base passion to exist within Itself. I was a human being.... nothing testified of My

Divinity during the years before My work as a teacher. Being just human I had to struggle to shape Myself into the

receiving vessel for the most delectable a human being may ever possess…. for the eternal Deity Itself, Which wanted to

manifest Itself in Me in order to become a visible God for people. And I was victorious over the one who endeavours to

control you humans, whom I fought against in order to set you free from his aggression …. It was truly an arduous

battle, for the human being in Me was receptive to everything beautiful and not allowed to possess it; the human being

within Me loved life for he loved his fellow human beings and did not want to leave them. I was in full possession of

strength and able to make everything subject to Myself if I wanted to, and I voluntarily gave it all up, I defeated Myself,

My body and even the soul, which occasionally wanted to arise when it felt how I suffered…. I defeated Myself as a

human being and thus demonstrated that it is possible for every person to become master of his weaknesses and

longings, and that it was not divine strength which accomplished My victory, which then could never be expected from

you humans if I had failed in the battle against evil and against lust.

For this reason you humans are also able to achieve the same; indeed, you even have My additional support as soon as

you call upon Me for help, as I have promised.... No temptation is too great and the tempter never insurmountable if you

make use of My mercy…. For the sake of your strength of will I died on the cross, what you are lacking in strength and

will you can receive from Me if you want to fight against the one who is your enemy and overcoming it was the most

difficult battle I ever fought. AMEN

JESUS CAME TO THE WEAK IN BODY AND THE NEEDY

I came to the world for the weak, sick and needy, because the strong did not need ME, they could find their own way, at

least they thought they could. Only when they themselves went astray would they acknowledge their weakness and call

on ME, when their strength was no longer enough for them to be the master of their lives. Everyone who calls upon ME,

who needs ME, who is weak and sick in their souls, to all such I came to help, for through their cry to ME they express

their need and hope for rescue from their ills. But you are all weak and sick, and blessed are those who admit it. And

those who feel strong and healthy in themselves are indeed in a worse condition because they cannot be helped.

And many there be who believe they need no help, many there be who are convinced of their own power and treat

lightly the power of him who would bring them out of their sickness and strengthen them in their arrogant faith and give

them power but who expects service in return. He wants their souls and therefore gives their body what it wants.

But I am the Physician of the sick and weak, I am the Comforter of the sorrowful and the hope of the discouraged. All

may come to ME and will not come in vain. I offer you all MY help even if you do not accept it immediately. In such

case I understand why, and you are still not forsaken for no one calls on ME in vain who calls on ME from the heart.

Come unto ME all you who are weak and heavy laden and I will refresh you (Matt 11:28-30) I have promised you MY

help and I will certainly give it to you. Always remember this when you have needs, when you feel physically or

spiritually distressed, when this earthly life weighs heavy upon you and you need help. Then remember that I came to

the poor, sick and weak and still come, and that I only wait for your call to reveal MYSELF to you.

I want to be called upon so that you freely acknowledge your weakness and long for ME, your Physician and Healer,

that through your cry you show your faith that I can and will help you and such faith will never be disappointed.

AMEN

CHRIST'S BLOOD - GUILT OF SIN

For you, My children on Earth, did I shed My blood; for you I took the most difficult path, because I wanted to help you

to come up from the depths which you could never have left with your own force. Therefore for you I died on the cross.

The Sacrifice that I wanted to offer God-Father was accepted by HIM, and so it became the Redemption for you,

Humanity should therefore receive this benefit, which I had implored from God, and for which I had offered the

Sacrifice. It should be to your advantage because you needed urgent help in the state in which you found yourselves as I

descended to Earth.

But I knew also that humanity needed help not only while I was on Earth; I knew that as long as the Earth existed, men

on it could not fulfill their earthly task because they were too weak, and I took pity on all of mankind, of the past and of

the future. And so I included all people in the Redemption-Work - for all I acquired Mercy without measure, which they

can use now to reach their aim on Earth.

My Sacrifice to die was a work of greatest Mercy; I accept- ed in full consciousness and free will a state of suffering that

I could never have been able to bear without the divine Love-Force. But the appalling misery of humanity touched My

heart and let Me endure all I could, in order to help. I knew indeed that the total "Deification" of My being crowned this,

My Redemption-Work, but I did not do it for this goal, but solely out of Love for the suffering, from-God- apostate

spirituals, that were so far from God and therefore unblessed.

The Love filled ME with such power that I could draw Force from it for the work of Mercy, and so I suffered and died

for humanity in immeasurable bodily pain. I devoted My life on the cross to My unhappy brethren that once, like

MYSELF, started out from GOD but had left the path of their destiny. I knew the Blissfulness of God's nearness, and I

felt Mercy for the fallen damned. But I also knew of God's Love for all HIS Creatures, and I wanted to return to Him

those that voluntarily had withdrawn from Him. My Love for God was overwhelming, and also for all those that came

from HIM. For that Love alone, GOD accepted My Sacrifice. And My Love prayed to God to forgive the guilt that

clung to the fallen ones and that could not be cancelled otherwise, because it consisted in loveless ness. Only Love could

bring this Sacrifice about and therefore it was not the death on the cross as such, but all Love to mankind that could be

proven through this death, that GOD therefore accepted as expiation.

I shed My blood for mankind and by that I atoned for what you have done. I took your sin on ME and paid for it. But

you people must also contribute your part and must be willing to be redeemed through My death on the cross; you must

desire that this work of Grace is also done for you; you must use this Grace by recognizing Me and My Redemption-

Work, and willingly join those for whom I died on the cross.

Without this recognition and your will, you are and will remain burdened with this sin-guilt and in the chains of the one

who caused your fall. Indeed I fulfilled for all of you the Redemption-Work, but it is only your own will that makes it

active for you, for you could never be redeemed, against your will, from a sin that you have committed with your free

will. You must put yourself under the cross of Christ; you must recognize ME and call ME and must confess your guilt

and pray that I carry it for you, and that I may extinguish it with My blood. And all your guilt will be forgiven for the

sake of My Love. AMEN

MIRACLE-WORK OF THE CHILD JESUS

I want to teach you what you want to have clarified, for I want you to have the correct information first before you

instruct your fellow human beings, which is the task of those of you who want to serve Me. I want you to understand

everything yourselves before you pass your knowledge on, for the other person is frequently not very patient, he desires

an explanation, especially when he has doubts, and then you should also be able to provide it informatively. The

problem of God’s human manifestation in Jesus gives rise to most questions, because so far it has been explained such

that it causes increasingly more confusion instead of illumination. My earthly existence as a human being did not differ

in any way from that of other people, I just gave room to the development of love in My heart where others increased

their selfish love and instead of ‘giving’ they ‘desired’.

The spark of love smoulders in every human being’s heart, but it can ignite into a bright flame just as it can be

smothered. This, however, also differentiates people from each other, for love leaves its mark of divinity on everyone,

whereas selfish love is My adversary’s image who exalted himself and thus fell. Love is therefore the Divine in the

human being, which appears only as a very tiny spark at the start of earthly life but has the capacity to expand infinitely.

The spark of love was already recognisable in the infant Jesus because a soul of light had embodied itself in the child,

which indeed had left all of God’s glories behind in the spiritual kingdom yet not its love, and this strength of love

expressed itself at times when the spiritual spark made contact with the eternal Father-Spirit, which happens with every

loving child, but in Jesus it was intended to be obvious to people so that they would believe in the Divinity of the child

Jesus. The working of the spirit is not prevented in an infant like that, it just rarely, if ever, surfaces because the human

being’s intellect and free will first have to strive for the working of My spirit themselves, which only consciously

happens when he is old enough to make use of the intellect and will in freedom of thought.

The explanation for the miracles of the child Jesus, for the unusual events, can only be found in the high degree of love,

for Jesus’ soul came from above, it was a soul of light and love which was then wrapped in a human form and also

prevented from its hitherto unrestricted work and activity in order to do justice to its human external form. The infant

Jesus possessed a high degree of love.... yet the earthly-human nature asserted itself too…. the world, that is, My and

His adversary also exercised his influence on this earthly-human nature since he was allowed to do so for the sake of the

test of will. And then My spirit remained silent, for even the human being Jesus had to take this test of will, and the

work of His soul’s deification had to take place under the same conditions as with every other human being, albeit due

to His love My spirit was and remained in Him.

Yet the highest degree of love had to be attained by the human being Jesus’ own will…. and therefore My spirit

withdrew during these years, it did not insist and impel Him, it allowed the human being Jesus complete freedom until,

as a result of His intensified love, the ever increasing abundance of My spirit manifested itself as wisdom and might….

as outstanding knowledge and miracle-working. The human being Jesus had been chosen for this mission since eternity.

A supreme being of light descended to earth; one of My children, living in magnificence, started His earthly progress,

and thus this soul already had to permeate the earthly form of the infant Jesus, and everything remarkable in His youth

was entirely natural and understandable, yet for people living in darkness equally incomprehensible, and so a cover was

spread across the radiant light in later years and the actual mission began…. the deification of an earthly human being

by means of love. I was indeed at all times able to work through My spirit in the human being Jesus, for all conditions to

do so were given; yet for the sake of Jesus’ mission everything divinely-spiritual withdrew, and this mission was

accomplished by Him as a human being, Who took His strength entirely from His active love, which was just as difficult

for Him to develop as for every other human being, because My adversary truly did not let his influence go to waste

since, after all, Jesus’ victory meant the adversary’s defeat. But My adversary was unable to affect Jesus’ free will, and

this was wholly and completely aimed in My direction. And therefore He succeeded in accomplishing the work, for His

will arose from His love for Me…. Love, however, is the strength which is stronger than death and therefore He also

defeated the one who had brought death into the world…. Love was victorious and will remain so eternally. AMEN

SALVATION THROUGH JESUS CHRIST

Every human being can redeem himself if he so wants, yet he cannot do so without Jesus Christ... Hence Jesus Christ is

the Redeemer, but if the human being does not want it himself, the act of Salvation at the cross was in vain for him.

Only the human will brings it into effect, it is imperative that the human will first strives towards salvation through Jesus

Christ, only then can he be assured that he will be redeemed. No human being has been excluded, no person needs to

continue without freedom, because the man Jesus Christ died on the cross so that the whole of humanity… all human

beings of past, present and future… can be redeemed from their guilt and no-one has been barred… but salvation does

not occur against the human will, and the will is only strengthened through Jesus Christ. Consequently He inevitably has

to be acknowledged as God’s Son and Saviour of the world, otherwise His help will not be requested, otherwise the

blessings of His act of Salvation will not be called upon. Because in the unredeemed state he is held in bondage by a

dark force, his will for good is restrained and he is a slave to him who is his lord… so that he complies with his will and

as a result offends against divine order with heartless thoughts and actions…

It is the will of the still constrained human being, which is wrongly directed. Due to his misguided love he only desires

what pulls him down but not what elevates him. His restraints constantly pull downward, and if he wants to ascend then

he has to be liberated from his chains, he has to be free from the force which controls him… He has to be redeemed and

can redeem himself with the strength of love. But this is extremely weak in a human being and can only be strengthened

when the person calls on Him Who has overcome this power by His death on the cross, when he calls on the Lord to

whom this power is inferior… Jesus Christ, the Divine Saviour and Conqueror of death, the constrained state and

helplessness. By His death on the cross He has acquired unlimited blessings which He shares with everyone who desires

them. And by using these blessings the will becomes strengthened which enables the person to carry out deeds of love,

to acquire God’s strength, which will inevitably help him to ascend and liberate him from the chains which had held him

captive… He has redeemed himself through Jesus Christ, or he was willing to let himself be redeemed by Jesus Christ…

to benefit from His sacrifice on the cross. He has delivered himself through the blood of Jesus from all guilt which had

subjected him to the force of the power, which is God’s adversary and which therefore also had to be overcome by God

Himself…

If Jesus Christ is not acknowledged as Son of God and Saviour of the world, God’s adversary maintains his grip on the

person, be it on earth or in the beyond. And this means that the soul remains in a sphere which will be without light for

eternity, that the soul can never become enlightened, that it is without freedom and strength and can no longer change its

situation by itself, that it is condemned… until it is approached by a saviour… And this Saviour once again is Jesus

Christ, because only He has the strength to liberate the soul from the power of His adversary… Yet again the soul has to

want this itself, it has to call on Him when, due to an exceptionally weak gleam of light, it remembers the man Jesus in a

flash, who was known on earth as the Saviour and Redeemer of humanity…. With its cry it acknowledges Him, it is a

call in greatest need, which the Divine Saviour hears and Whose work of Salvation benefits this soul from now on too in

as much as He liberates it from its torment.

You humans on earth should not bypass Jesus Christ because you will only delay your salvation, which you sooner or

later have to accept, because you cannot be redeemed without Jesus Christ, but you yourselves have to want to be

redeemed by Him… This will can arise in you on earth if you are taught about Him correctly, about the significance of

His crucifixion and your attitude towards the act of Salvation, because He will forever remind people of Himself, and

the references to Him during the last days can be heard with such urgency, that every human being should seriously

consider whether he can accept responsibility for his attitude towards Jesus Christ… He should ask for information in

regards to the problem of God’s human manifestation and salvation, then he will also receive an acceptable explanation,

but he should not be so arrogant as to make a rash judgment and abandon everything in relation to Jesus Christ. Sooner

or later he will have to take the path to Him...

But his remorse will be extremely painful if he does not realise his error until he is in the beyond, if he himself extends

the state of his torment by his rejection of Him, Who alone can release him from his hardship. As soon as the human

being on earth, or even in the beyond, takes the path to Jesus Christ, he will move towards his salvation… But without

Jesus Christ he will remain in darkness forever, he cannot rise from the tomb of death until he acknowledges the One,

Who has overcome death… He can only become blessed when he intentionally allows himself to become redeemed by

Jesus’ blood. AMEN

JESUS CHRIST, LEADER ON THE RIGHT PATH

The right path will truly be pointed out to you if only you are willing to take it. In that case you just have to let

yourselves be guided by Me and you will be urged onto the right path, because I Am only waiting for you to take stock

of yourselves, so that you want to achieve what is your real task on earth and live a right and righteous life on earth.

Then I will take over your guidance Myself, for your present will entitles Me to do so. As the man Jesus I walked this

path as an example for you, as the man Jesus I showed you the goal which you, too, ought to pursue; as the man Jesus I

demonstrated to you what a human being can achieve if he takes this path.

And therefore I keep making His earthly progress clear to you, I draw your attention to Him, Whom I sent to earth to

help you take the same path, because this is the only path which will lead to Me, to your God and Father of eternity. He

had achieved the goal on earth, He ascended to heaven as a perfected being, as the cover of Myself, and I enabled My

disciples on earth to witness this process so that they would have a testimony of what a human being can achieve on

earth, so that they were able to behold Me Myself in Jesus Christ, Who had entered into eternal unity with His heavenly

Father and thus was united with Me for all eternity….

And I want all of you to unite with Me, I want all of you to return to Me as My children, that all of you take the only

path which leads into the Father’s house from whence you once originated …. You, however, wander around and don’t

know this path, you cannot find it because you are not looking for it, you live on earth oblivious of your purpose, you

walk on a broad road which will never lead to the goal because it is not the path which Jesus had taken. And therefore I

have to keep sending you messengers to show you the right way, who want to guide you onto the right path.

I have to make the Word of Jesus Christ accessible to you humans, which He taught on My instruction on earth, the

Word which I spoke through Him to people who listened because they believed in Me, Who spoke through Him. This

Word of His will direct you to the right path again, and you have to listen to this Word because it gives evidence of Me,

Who is the path Himself, the truth and the life. And if you listen to this Word the path to the goal will be shown to

you.... and no-one will be able to say that he had been without guidance on earth if he just entrusts himself to Me, if he

wants to reach Me and has the will, not to stand still, but to attain the goal which was given to him for his earthly life.

References are made to you time and again because I will not abandon any human being to his fate but Am concerned

that they all shall find the right path, however, I cannot to take care of someone who lives without a sense of

responsibility, for in order to be able to lead him he has to entrust himself to Me of his own free will. Where this will is

missing I will keep Myself back....

Yet it will always be made easy for him to enter the right path, no compulsion will ever be exercised…. I always

demand his free will in order to be able to take his hand and lead him to ascent…. for I can certainly advise and help you

yet I will never compel you…. Amen

PRIMORDIAL-SIN .... LOVE-BEAM .... JESUS CHRIST ....

The first sin of rebellion against Me was cause for the far distance between Me and My creatures, because with the

rejection of Myself they also refused My Power of love, they themselves stepped out of My love-beam-circuit while

continuously moving further away from Me. Resistance against Me is also like rejecting My love-power, which is why

no human being who is still opposing Me within, can experience My flow-through love-beams. And a resistance is

already apparent; he has no faith in Me and has therefore no connection with Me. Thus he is standing outside of My

love-beam-circuit …. he feels nothing of My love because he is not voluntarily opening self to It and not willing to

associate with Me. Not acknowledging Me means having totally succumbed to the one who long ago rebelled against

Me and became My opponent as a result …. and who’s plan it is to influence all creatures in such a way that they

likewise feel of Me as non-existent, that they have no faith in a Being Who created them and Who wishes to be in

connection with them.

But the non-acknowledgement of such is the outcome of total weakness and mental darkness …. Light and power is

only available through Me …. and light and power they scorn because they scorn the Provider of light and power ….

for they have no faith in the Original-Source of Light and Power, out of Whom they emerged …. In like measure

though, as they are rejecting the Original-Source, they are making themselves incapable to be fed by this Original-

Source, hence they stay light- and powerless until they are striving towards this Source with their free will …. until they

acknowledge the Power Who created them, und thus are opening themselves to be supplied with the Divine-love-power

…. until they unite with the Provider of light and power.

And now they receive in abundance according their need to become blissful …. to again enter into the Original-

condition, which they once left voluntarily. Every man who turns to Me, shall abundantly receive, for My Love never

overexerts itself …. it wants to give continually and make happy and only demands open vessels into which it can pour

itself. And as soon as the serious will in man is awakened to unite with the Power which created him, he will turn away

from primordial-sin, from the rebellion against Me; then he will safely reach his goal with the help of the divine

Redeemer, Jesus Christ, Who shed His blood as payment for the sake of this great original-guilt ….

Who infinitely had suffered and died on the cross, earning the feeble humanity a mercy-treasure …. will-strength and

recognizing of their guilt …. every human being can now shorten the vast distance from Me, every man can now find

forgiveness for the immense guilt of the former rebellion against Me; every man can now enter again into the love-

beam-circuit and receive light and power in excess …. helping himself to the blessings, which through Jesus Christ’s

work of redemption are at his disposal abundantly …. if he acknowledges Me, I as Jesus, a human, who have paid off

your guilt for you, through the death on the cross. AMEN

SUFFERING AND DYING

My suffering and death on the cross could not be avoided, I had to empty the cup completely, I had to take everything

upon Myself if the act of Salvation for you humans, to redeem you from all guilt, was to be accomplished… Only the

knowledge of your pitiful state persuaded Me to make this self-sacrifice because My heart was filled with love for

you… and this love wanted to prevent the appalling fate which awaited you after the death of your body… Because I

knew of this appalling fate, since My eyes could witness the blissfulness of the kingdom of light as well as the suffering

and torment in the realm of darkness, and since My love was for you as My fallen brothers I searched for a solution to

avert your dreadful fate… I accepted all the guilt Myself and carried it on the path to the cross...

Whatever had been physically done to Me was more than less just a symbol of what the entire burden of sin meant to

Me, an immensely arduous, painful and suppressing burden, which made Me fall time and again and which I

nevertheless carried with utmost love… I took upon Myself all the pain My body could endure, for I carried the burden

of sin on your behalf, I wanted to accomplish the atonement which you irrevocably would have had to make… which

you would have been eternally unable to do … I suffered and fought, I truly sweated blood, I looked into all pits of hell,

and fear and horror tore My soul apart… I endured everything you would have had to endure yourselves… And My love

for you gave Me the strength to endure until the hour of death.

There is no comparison for My torment, no human being could have suffered to this extent… But I had offered Myself

voluntarily because I knew that only in this way could you be released from Satan’s chains… I already knew in advance

what to expect and carried this burden around with Me too, I consciously took the path which would finally lead to the

cross, but I suffered terribly because of My knowledge and therefore could never be joyful amongst My Own… I saw

the tragedy imposed on the souls, I saw the futility of their earthly life if I had failed and not brought them salvation

from sin and death …

And this knowledge strengthened My will so that I accepted My fate without resistance, which has was the purpose and

objective of My life on earth…. But right up to the end I had to make a great effort, right up to the end the burden on Me

had increased so tremendously that I could feel My strength diminishing and thus I called as a human being to God, to

let the cup pass Me by… But the strength of My love was stronger than My human weakness.... And the day of My

indescribable suffering and My death on the cross became the day of Salvation from all guilt for you humans... And the

knowledge of this enabled Me to patiently accept everything so that I could finally call out ‘It is finished…’ And My

soul could return from whence it had come, since through My death the complete unification with My Father, from

Whom I too had once emerged, took place. AMEN

‘WHATEVER YOU ASK THE FATHER IN MY NAME (JOHN 14:13, 14; 16:23, 24, 26)’

And you will truly receive whatever you ask for in My name.... You have to call upon Me in Jesus Christ…. Only

someone who acknowledges Me, the divine Redeemer Jesus Christ, who recognises his God and Father in Him and thus

prays to the ‘Father’, will find his request granted, for he will be guided by My spirit to the One from Whom he once

originated…. Whoever does not acknowledge Jesus, the Son of Man, as the heavenly Father’s representative….

whoever does not believe that I embodied Myself in Jesus the human being, will not send a prayer to Me in complete

trust either…. even if he doesn’t deny a ‘God’, but instead his belief in a God and Creator was purely acquired and did

not come alive in him…. For a living faith is the result of love, but love also acknowledges Jesus Christ as God’s Son

and Redeemer of the world, Who merged with His Father of eternity…. Thus he will no longer separate the Redeemer

Jesus Christ from the Eternal Deity, he will have been enlightened by his spirit that He and I are one…. And his prayer

will always be granted, for he will only ever request something I can give to him without damaging his soul.....

You humans will only be able to understand the true meaning of My Words if My spirit can work in you…. My spirit,

however, can only work in you if you allow it to do so, if you, through a life of love, provide it with the opportunity to

express itself to you…. But then you will accept My Word as if it was directly spoken to you, for then I will address My

children and with My Word will also simultaneously give them the understanding for it …. And then you will be able to

consider yourselves blessed, for your soul will receive light.... it will begin to understand, it will mature, for then you

will also do everything I ask of you. You will comply with My will and shape yourselves increasingly more into love,

and your soul will perfect itself while it is still on earth ….

Call upon Me in Jesus Christ and first of all pray to achieve this perfection on earth.... And truly, you will not make this

prayer to Me in vain…. For hearing a spiritual request is most pleasing to Me, a spiritual request will be fulfilled,

because the Father won’t deny His child anything and because the human being already demonstrates his childship by

appealing to Me for help to become perfect…. And always pray that you become and stay aware of My presence….

Then you will constantly walk your earthly path in company with your eternal Father, then you can never go wrong,

then you will mentally dwell increasingly more in spiritual spheres and your progress will be assured. You could

achieve so much if you remember My Word and conduct yourselves in accordance with My Words…. if you ‘ask the

Father in My name….’

Earthly and spiritually you cannot make an inappropriate request, I will always grant your wishes, for I made this

promise to you and I keep My Word. Call upon the divine Redeemer with Whom the Father united Himself…. Call to

God in Jesus Christ…. Then you, too, will belong to the redeemed, then you will have penetrated the mystery of God’s

human manifestation…. For unredeemed people completely lack the belief that I embodied Myself in the human being

Jesus.... But you demonstrate this belief when you ask ‘the Father in My name’. AMEN

BELIEF IN THE EXISTENCE OF JESUS

Jesus’ life on earth is often questioned if not entirely doubted, and to accept or reject Him is an expression of free will

too. Even believers have no proof and yet they do not doubt it, because the truth is confirmed to them from within…

which could occur to every human being if they didn't deliberately continue to oppose God. Belief in Jesus Christ as

Saviour of the world is being demanded... Consequently no irrefutable proof can be given for this.

However, since there is no other way to happiness but through Jesus Christ, the very problem of Christ is precisely the

test of human will… God’s adversary uses an exceptionally effective weapon by casting doubt into human hearts

concerning the existence of Jesus. And anyone whose will is still in opposition to God will accept such doubt, but

people whose resistance towards God has already weakened or has been completely defeated will equally determinedly

dispel it. But every human being could dispel such doubts because even the most rationally gifted person cannot dismiss

all references, all teachings and the Christian teaching itself, as having been taken ‘out of thin air’… And there is far

more evidence in favour than against…

The believer needs no further evidence because the ‘outpouring of the spirit’, as promised to the people by Jesus, is such

convincing proof that any doubt becomes invalid. But this proof cannot be given to an unbelieving person because the

enlightenment by the spirit first requires faith in Jesus Christ which, through love, has become a living faith… People

who do not believe in Jesus’ way of life on earth are of completely darkened spirit, they find no correlations, they look

at everything with mere worldly eyes, they have no spiritual life, and their way of life will lack unselfish love… which

would result in assured spiritual enlightenment. They are people who rely on their lively intellect which, however, has

been seized by God’s adversary, and he certainly knows how to reinforce such people’s rejection of Jesus Christ and the

act of Salvation. But such ‘deniers of Christ' will never believe in life after death, and their life, their intellectual

activity, will only ever relate to their earthly life, and they will go to great lengths to prove to other people that belief in

Jesus Christ is an illusion… For they will not be satisfied with their own point of view but also try to convey it to other

people. This, too, is the influence of God’s adversary, because it is ‘salvation through Jesus Christ’ which snatches his

followers from him. And he will do anything to undermine faith in Jesus Christ.

These deniers of Christ are under his control... and on earth they only work for Satan … which, however, they would not

understand unless they gained spiritual knowledge… but it is the consequence of faith in Jesus Christ and His Salvation

in the first place which ensures the working of His spirit in the person… The fight between light and darkness is

raging to an extent which you humans would not believe… And since salvation is only possibly through Jesus Christ,

God’s adversary will try to refute this very salvation, he will portray the problem of Christ as unprovable and thus

attempt to avert people from their faith in Him… And time and again he will find people who can follow his mental

notions, whose lively intellect has made them arrogant and who, therefore, want to intellectually analyse something

which can only be understood by way of faith and love. For where God's spirit cannot work the human intellect draws

the wrong conclusions… and the latter finds itself in impenetrable darkness… because it avoids the only path

which would lead it to the light… the path through Jesus Christ, the path of faith and love… of truth and of life. AMEN

SURRENDER TO JESUS CHRIST SAVIOUR - REDEEMER - HEALER

The burden of your sin of having turned away from ME has made you an imperfect being and therefore unhappy, and

you will only be restored to complete happiness when you have been set free from your guilt. Even though you may

have paid part of your guilt before the time of your embodiment as man, you can still only be made completely free of

all offence when you as man allow yourself to be redeemed by JESUS CHRIST. I can only erase your guilt when you

have surrendered to the Divine Redeemer, in Whom I have embodied Myself.

Only through JESUS CHRIST can you come back to ME again, from whom you once separated in free will, and in HIM

you acknowledge ME as your Eternal God and Father. Such surrender to JESUS CHRIST is what I wish of you for

through this dedication you demonstrate your desire to belong to ME again.

But do you sincerely want to flee to the cross and receive the forgiveness of your sin through JESUS CHRIST? Go to

HIM in complete faith who is your Savior, your Redeemer and your Brother. Do you earnestly want to claim this Grace,

which HE has obtained for you on the cross?

Do you speak in Spirit and in Truth when you present yourself to HIM? Or are they merely empty words.

Think about it, for this determines your fate in eternity.

JESUS CHRIST is truly your Savior and Healer. He is your Redeemer from sin and death, He was the vessel which

carried ME so his Might and Power is without limit.

And this JESUS is and remains for all eternity the visible Divinity because I chose HIM to become for you a visible

God, for I am but Spirit from everlasting to everlasting. And if you call upon HIM you call ME and I will hear you,

since I have given the promise through JESUS CHRIST; So if you ask the Father for something in MY Name I will give

it to you. Trust these words in total faith and do not hesitate to trust in JESUS CHRIST your Savior and Redeemer, so

that I can give you proof that I will keep MY Word.

You must always remember that I will give you the occasion for prayer in Spirit and Truth and that it is MY will that

you come to ME with every need of your body and soul. So take this step to ME at last, consider MY Word, let it

penetrate deeply into your heart and believe without any doubt for MY promises are Truth, but you determined their

fulfillment.

I Myself carried all your sin, I took upon ME all your suffering and needs which you had to carry as penance for your

original guilt. So man's life can be free of worry and suffering if he will surrender completely to ME, for I have carried

his guilt. But his prayer must be accompanied by a living faith. He must understand that it is not MY will that men

suffer but I cannot remove his suffering against MY everlasting order if his faith is too weak. Know also that a man's cry

does not reach MY ear if he doubts MY Love and Power. I can keep everyone and I will help everyone who has a living

faith. So take heed to this promise and surrender to ME. A living faith in MY Love is so important, which I have proven

to you in My work of redemption.

And if you are convinced of this that I have carried your sin, died for this on the cross, so that your may be free, then all

your doubts will disappear. Then I can take away your suffering and redeem you from sin and death. Only in this way is

your return to ME accomplished when you acknowledge ME in Spirit and in Truth, then it will be done according to

your faith. AMEN

ATONEMENT OF THE GUILT THROUGH JESUS CHRIST

To burden MYSELF with the harm of humanity was immensely hard. Every bad action must affect man, and you would

have been obliged to suffer immensely in order to pay for all your sins that rested on you. The guilt of the ancient revolt

against GOD alone was so great that you could not atone for it, neither in your bound state nor in the state as man. And

therefore I took up your guilt -the effect of each evil deed I caught up, I loaded everything on My human body, and this

one expiated your guilt through an immeasurable suffering and death on the cross.

My Love moved ME to help you. And all lightful spirituals, all created Ur- beings that remained loyal to ME, were

filled with the same Love for you. Love lets never anything get lost; Love leaves nothing ever in darkness, in misery and

grief. Love offered itself for the rescue for the liquidation of the great guilt. Incorporated in a being, filled with Light

and Love, Love Itself descended to Earth. But what now had to happen on Earth, that had to happen in a human Form. I

MYSELF had to incorporate in the flesh and chose the Man JESUS as My abode, which had to be pure and without sin

so that I MYSELF could manifest in HIM.

And this Man JESUS expiated your guilt. This Man JESUS took the enormous sin load of humanity on His shoulders

and walked with it to the cross. And even if the inhuman suffering were to be described to you again and again, you will

not be able to comprehend it in its whole depth because the defectiveness of your being hinders you. His sufferings were

impossible to compare with anything, and HE already knew about it a long time before, because HE was filled with My

Spirit, Who had taken abode in HIM. And therefore HE knew all about it, about HIS mission and also about HIS death

on the cross.

HIS soul trembled and shook because HE was a Man... and HIS divinity which HE reached through Love gave HIM

indeed Force, but did not reduce the measure of HIS suffering. A Man walked to the cross, Who wanted to suffer for His

fellow-men, to help them because HE knew about the immeasurable harm of those that were bound in the depth by My

adversary. JESUS knew that a Sacrifice had to be made to buy those souls free from My opponent. HE knew that the

great sin-guilt had to be liquidated to satisfy the Justice of the FATHER, Who could not receive any child laden with

guilt in the Father house. HE wanted to bring me back MY children. HE wanted to pay the buying price for the souls.

And as the guilt was gigantic therefore the Sacrifice had also to be unusually great. And therefore with this knowledge,

the Man JESUS took the immense suffering on HIM; HE did let happen what no man, except HIM, could have endured.

Consciously HE went the way to the cross and suffered indescribable grief that finally ended with the painful death on

the cross.

To measure the grandeur of this Mercy- Work for mankind, is not yet possible, but you should always remember that

HE was completely innocent and has suffered for you who, without HIS Redemption Work could never have been able

to return from the abyss to the Father. I MYSELF was in the Man JESUS, Love replenished HIM because without it HE

could have never accomplished this Work. But I had to regain quiet within HIM during the most painful hours of HIS

passion way because as man HE had to suffer and to die, because the divinity within HIM could not suffer. But the

Deity could neither cancel the guilt without atonement according to the divine Justice.

What still is incomprehensible to you, some day you will be able to conceive in its whole depth concerning this greatest

Work of Mercy. The Man JESUS was through HIS being "Man" in your sphere, and therefore HIS soul suffered so

dreadfully. He descended from above, out of the realm of Light and had to view the deepest darkness and was

persecuted by the forces of hell. And therefore the Man JESUS did not only suffer bodily, but endured the deepest soul-

pain that increased HIS affliction a thousand fold. But HE brought to you Redemption from sin and death. AMEN

DESCENT INTO HELL – OPPOSITION OF LUCIFER

It is true that I descended into hell after My death on the cross, and that I brought Redemption too for those that had not

yet passed through the door to eternal Bliss, because this door could only be opened through My death on the cross.

Innumerable souls waited for the hour of their Redemption, and I appeared to them as the man Jesus, and I told them of

My suffering and death…. because they too had to confess ME freely as the Son of God and Redeemer of the world. But

those that had led a good way of life on Earth also recognized Me; I was not rejected by all. Nevertheless, uncounted

souls offered resistance and refused My gift of Mercy, My Redemption.

The influence of My opponent on those souls was so strong that they saw in ME only the man Jesus Who rebelled

against earthy rulers and was condemned to die. All these souls had to be left with their freedom of will and therefore I

could not appear in Might and Magnificence. I had to appear amongst them, as I had walked among men on Earth, as a

man who had only tried to convince them with the Word of His mission and of the accomplished Work of Redemption.

My opponent did not want to give up these souls, but he realized for the first time the effectiveness of My Redemption-

Work. He could not hold those souls who accepted ME and wanted to follow ME voluntarily through the door that I

opened for them. They escaped from his power; they forced their fetters because they obtained the strength from ME -

for I MYSELF untied their chains.

The more My opponent raged among his followers, and now the very fight began between darkness and light, and it has

never ceased. It still rages on Earth, as well as in the spiritual realm. I went down to hell to bring Redemption to all

those that had, even before I came, finished their life on Earth - all those who in spite of a right way of life, still were in

the realm of Satan, who as My opponent fought against Me too, and against whom I have waged the battle on Earth for

all souls kept in his bondage.

And Satan lost a great part of his adherents. I died for all those souls, and all of them could have freed themselves from

him. But his fury was without limit when he saw how many of his former followers had left; when he had to recognize

that I was victorious, and that I had used only My Love to conquer. He, too, could have submitted to this Love, but his

power and his possessions were still great, and he resisted My Love-Force so avidly, that it had no effect on him.

But the moment had come in which he had to admit that his power was broken. He had to realize that he had found his

master in the man Jesus, whose Love accomplished the unification with ME. And therefore his hate grew still stronger,

because in the divine Redeemer, Jesus Christ there now grew a mighty opponent that could wrench his followers from

him, due to the force of His Love.

As the free will of each being is the one to decide, My adversary still saw in that a favorable solution for himself, and he

is untiringly working to influence the will of his victims - be it on Earth or in the spiritual realm. But I descended into

hell after My death on the cross, and I will do so again and again to bring Salvation to all those who desire to be free of

him. And he will not be able to hinder ME; he will never be able to use force to keep back the souls who want to follow

My call.

His power has been broken through My death on the cross, but his resistance could not be broken, not even through My

death on the cross. His hate and his will are unbending; his actions are viciously bad, and his being is entirely without

love. Therefore, he misses also the force to give life to the dead. His remaining force is used only for negative actions,

and therefore positive force must more and more paralyze his endeavor - Love must win and draw to itself all that is

lifeless and awake it again to life.

With My descent into hell there began the return of the once fallen beings to ME: there began the awakening of the dead

to life - because Love had proven that it is stronger than hate - Love paid in full at the cross the guilt that caused the

death of the beings. And so it came about that life was "bought" for them, and the one who brought all those beings to

the state of death was conquered. AMEN

‘NO MAN COMETH UNTO THE FATHER, BUT BY ME’ (JOHN 14:6)

“No man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.” The extreme importance of these words explains also the necessity of

leading to the faith in Jesus Christ those people who are not yet believers, or exhorting those to a living faith to which

the knowledge of Jesus Christ is al-ready present. For no one can reach ME who does not recognize MYSELF in Jesus

Christ. There are indeed people who pretend to believe in a God because HE proves HIMSELF through everything that

surrounds man, but they do not want to admit Jesus Christ as the "Son of God" and "Redeemer of the World", and they

do not consider themselves as unfaithful. But those people are still very far from their God and Creator. They are not yet

in close contact with ME and therefore cannot be enlightened in their thinking.

They still carry the burden of the sin of the ancient turning away from ME. And this sin binds them to My opponent;

they will not get free from him without Jesus Christ - but very few people know about this sin of the ancient turning

away from ME, and therefore they are not conscious of the signification of JESUS and of his Redemption-Work.

Since men now know the teaching of the Gospel and the words that Jesus spoke on Earth, they could also meditate about

those words: "No one can come to the FATHFR except through ME." And would people be eager to learn more about it,

they would surely get clarity, and the thoughts about those words would never leave them. There is only one road:

through Jesus to ME - for the sin- guilt must first be cancelled before you, can be accepted by ME. Without Redemption

through Jesus Christ, no being that acted sinfully in free will can approach ME. This is a law, which even My endless

Love cannot revoke.

Also, no man will feel in his heart a quiet security in the face of God, WHOM he indeed recognizes, but only with

words or superficial thoughts. A serious meditation would reveal to him through his feelings that he has missed the right

relationship with his God and Creator since Eternity.

He will never embosom himself to ME like a child to its father; he will only believe that there exists a God, without

establishing a close connection with ME that presupposes Love. For Love would illuminate his spirit - Love would

sharpen his spiritual outlook - Love would make him ask, but never let him make statements that are erroneous. A slight

uneasiness will trouble every man who devotes himself to spiritual thoughts and has not yet found contact with JESUS

CHRIST. He will know about the passion-way, and the death on the cross will be nothing new to him. Again and again

he will start to converse with his fellow-men, or be reminded by them of Jesus Christ, because I direct his thoughts

constantly towards the "man Jesus" WHO walked upon the Earth and ended in agony.

Even if he himself has not yet acknowledged Jesus, he knows, however, about HIS time on Earth, and I bring MYSELF

in Jesus Christ to his remembrance. And depending upon the level of love in which man finds himself, there will be

acceptance, or defense.

But where Love is, I MYSELF take hold of that man, and his resistance will gradually diminish, and finally he will also

see the man Jesus in quite a different light from the way he felt in the beginning when he still stood, in full defense,

opposed to HIM.

But if he cannot be taught - if his will is still hostile in the hour of his death - then he cannot expect any Bliss in the

spiritual world, for, despite a correct conduct in life, he will enter only into that realm where dwell all those who deny

Christ. Because he did not permit himself to be redeemed on Earth, he therefore enters bound in the world beyond.

But even so, he can still find there his divine Savior and Redeemer. And this is again a great Mercy on MY part: that I

face all those also in the spiritual world that had theretofore rejected ME - that I hear each call that will be sent to ME, as

the Redeemer - and I then take the caller by the hand and lead him from that sphere in My divine planes.

Because I still fetch souls from the depths if I am only acknowledged - if only one soul has found its way to Jesus

Christ, WHOM it rejected on Earth, but without WHOM it cannot reach ME.

The realm of Light is closed to every soul as long as Jesus Christ does not open the door for it - but it is understood that

He must be acknowledged as the Son of God and as the Savior of the world, in WHOM THE ETERNAL DEITY

ITSELF is incorporated, to free humanity from the violence of the enemy.

Man is too weak to free himself alone; he needs the help of Jesus Christ - and he can get it only if he himself asks HIM

for it. However, this requires the acceptance of MY- SELF in HIM.

Therefore, the man Jesus spoke the words- "No one can come to the FATHER except through ME" - because I

MYSELF spoke to them through the man Jesus. I MYSELF wanted to be acknowledged within HIM, HE Who served

only as cover for Me, during the time of His walk on Earth; that I also kept in the spiritual realm in order to be a visible

God to all My creatures, though I was indeed a Spirit and am a Spirit from Eternity to Eternity - Who, as such, was not

visible to the created beings.

In order to be a visible God for you, I MYSELF chose a form, and in this form I accomplished the Redemption-Work.

Therefore, you must also acknowledge the form in which I hid MYSELF. Then you will take the right path to ME, to

your FATHER in Eternity. Without Jesus Christ, My opponent will not set you free, because you are still his, through

your will! AMEN

IMPLORATION TO JESUS CHRIST OUT OF DARKNESS

Not MY Will determines your fate in eternity; but you yourselves shape your lot by your own will: either glorious or

terrible! You can, however, at any time, change a terrible condition, and when you want to do this, you will experience

MY support at any time. However, as darkened as you are, light will be brought to you! Asking for light, you can

always remain therein, for your will is responded to also in the domain of the beyond.

Do not hinder those who want to make you happy with a light. You will then feel better than you felt in the dark regions,

from where everybody is expected to arise to the Light. This, however, must be done voluntarily.

You all, who dwell in dark regions - be it on earth or in the beyond - you are unhappy creatures without peace, light and

power.

Those are the effects of sin, which burden you since eternities; during your earth life you still enlarged them by your

loveless actions. Before you have not come free from this guilt of sins, your condition cannot improve. But you,

yourselves, can have the will so that the guilt may be taken away from you, and then you can attain to light and

happiness!

Therefore have the will to become freed from the fetter, which burdens you and is torturous for you. Resolve to trust in

the ONE WHO can make you free and ask HIM to take charge of you.

You know about the ONE who has offered HIMSELF on the CROSS for the guilt of your sins. You all know about

JESUS CHRIST, but not all believe in HIS work of salvation. - And yet HE is the ONLY ONE who can give you help

in your distress, who can lift you up out of the depth, who can, and will give you light and life, but you yourselves must

first call HIM and ask HIM for help. Who does not believe in HIM will not address HIM, and he will remain in darkness

for eternities…. for, without HIM there is no way to happiness!

Again and again you will be pointed to the ONE, again and again a light will be offered you – a gleam of hope, which

you should heed. Turning your eyes to the gleam of light there will always shine a cross for you, in case you are not

completely obdurate, this IS HIS great compassion that HE comes to meet you in order to save you.

You may be sure that HE saves you whenever you want it. Wherefore I repeat, I do not condemn you, MY Will has not

determined the lot for you, in which you feel unhappy, but you have created it for yourselves. Yet, you yourselves can

also change it when you take refuge to the ONE who can free you: to JESUS CHRIST, with Whom I MYSELF have

become one, Who therefore is your GOD and FATHER from eternities.

Whether you are still living on earth or whether you already had to shed your earthly envelope - remember - only after

finding JESUS CHRIST, there is light within and around you. Without HIM, you dwell in darkness. Without HIM you

are distant from ME who had embodied HIMSELF in the man JESUS in order to die for you on the cross, expiating

your guilt of sin.

Only the one who in full belief renders his guilt to ME will be freed of it, an act, which alone depends on your will. MY

LOVE cannot do more than repeatedly send you light-bearers, who announce MY Will and engender a light within you.

Suffer to become enlightened, change your attitude and come to ME in JESUS CHRIST! Then darkness will recede,

brilliant light will appear, and all the terrors of darkness will fall off from you.

You will arise into spheres of light and become and remain everlastingly blessed. AMEN

THE POWER IN THE NAME JESUS

When you utter My name with deep reverence, spiritual power accrues to you in overabundance, because you manifest

your faith therewith in Me, and the reverence and love you accord the divine Saviour Jesus Christ; and this faith I can

reward with provision of strength, which you all urgently need. And when you meet in My name, you are streamed with

power and your soul perceives My presence, because I then dwell in your midst, since through your faith-filled thinking

you permit My presence.

And you find yourselves within a development period which guarantees salvation, as soon as you confess Me in Jesus

Christ. Since My crucifixion therefore, your redemption depends on whether you acknowledge this My redemption-

work of the Man Jesus - on whether you believe that your God and Creator descended to earth in order to carry out the

work of your redemption in the Man Jesus. Hence you are called upon to prove this your belief, and you do this when

you utter My name in faith, when you recognise and express this in Jesus Christ by the calling upon My name.

The call you make to Me in Jesus Christ I shall always hear and acknowledge and it shall permit My presence. And I

shall bless every meeting in My name. I want to guide your thoughts and enlighten your spirit; I want Myself to speak to

you, and I can also do it then because I can be in your midst, since you believe in Me. And you should therefore

assemble more often, and where tow or more meet in My name, there I shall be among them.

At any time therefore I can join in on your talks, your thoughts; I can provide everything you are in need of. I can clear

you up where doubts remain, and I can advise and help you, because you all are in need of My advice and help: you still

resemble feeble children who must be led by the hand to their right destination.

But you then make such guidance possible, as soon as you utter My name with a faithful heart. And for this reason men

shall not be able to say; "Christ is here, Christ is there", because I am not to be searched for by locality - I am only

where a believing human heart allows My presence, through works of love; and where, in small circles, My name is

uttered with living faith and reverence.

And hence I can indeed by proclaimed anywhere, yet take abode only in a few hearts, when My Name is uttered with the

fullest conviction by just a few: that I brought them salvation through My death on the cross. And only for these few has

My name the power to penetrate their soul and truly make it live, and these obviously shall experience My blessing: they

shall feel intimately united with Me and thus relate to Me as a child to its father; they shall be conscious of My presence,

and their lot shall be harmony and inner peace, because where I am there is peace and bliss. AMEN

ANSWER TO QUESTIONS ABOUT IMMACULATE CONCEPTION AND ADVANTAGES OF THE SOULS

OF LIGHT

A human being, however, is a weak, imperfect being and sensitive to suffering and torment, which needs to muster a

vast amount of willpower when it voluntarily accepts sufferings and torments in order to achieve something, not for

itself but for its fellow human beings, and which wants to bestow its love on the wretched human race…. It had to make

the sacrifice as ‘a mere human’ for its fellow human beings …. It had to be capable of suffering and dying....

And thus you will understand that the human being Jesus was not allowed to demonstrate any advantages which would

characterise Him as an extraordinary person, even though His soul was a spirit of light…. Although it had not passed

through the creation like the human beings’ souls, the fallen brothers; nevertheless, this soul, when it entered the body of

flesh…. which, like other people’s bodies, was a cluster of immature spiritual substances, thus also subject to the same

feelings, longings and passions…. had to learn to overcome these as the human being Jesus during His earthly life. For

His mission, apart from the salvation…. the redemption of the gravest guilt of sin…. was to exemplify to people the

only way of life which would guarantee them a return to Me. Thus, if people who were completely inadequate, weak

and captivated by passions were asked to do something it should be possible for them to accomplish this request…. And

if the human being Jesus wanted to serve as an example He had to be just like His fellow human beings.

His extraordinary origin, like that of the embodied beings of light on earth which want to be of help to people, by no

means infers unusual abilities or advantages which would have required a less stringent fight with himself in order to

thus find the unification with Me on earth, which is the goal and task of every human being on earth and for which the

human being Jesus set the example that it can be achieved. All the advantages Jesus had as a spirit of light He

surrendered before His incarnation as a human being, or His work could not have been what it is: a sacrifice made by

love, the blessing of which should benefit all people…. But neither can it ever be denied that ‘God Himself’ made this

sacrifice because love was the determining factor which so infused the human being Jesus that I thus was able to be in

Him after He, as a human being, had voluntarily shaped himself such that I could take abode in Him, that He became a

vessel for Me and thus He then possessed strength and light in abundance…. which again is a process that could not

just take place in the human being Jesus but which all people should and are able to achieve because they now have

help through the divine Redeemer Jesus Christ…. since due to his act of Salvation as a human being he gained an

amount of grace which is now available to every person…. And anyone who avails himself of it will also reach the goal.

He will likewise find unification with Me on earth, he will be able to receive light and strength without limitation….

However, you shall continue to receive clarification, because as long as questions arise in you it is also necessary to

provide you with the correct answer. And the more sincerely you desire this answer the sooner you will receive it.

The souls evolving from the abyss can expect as the last stage of their development on earth to be embodied as a human

being, then the process of development will be completed and the soul will enter the spiritual realm, irrespective of how

it is shaped when it discards its physical shell. Hence these souls proceed in accordance with divine order, they release

themselves from hard matter by way of service and yet rise gradually…. Souls of light embodied on earth, however,

only descend to earth for the purpose of a mission, they take abode in the human body straight away but then they

indeed travel their earthly path like every other person and are thus also subject to natural law and equally have to

struggle on earth…. Their external shell will make the same demands on them, because it is composed from still

completely immature spiritual substances, from tiny particles of the soul of a once fallen original spirit which is still in

utter opposition to God and which first has to be pacified and changed by the soul, which is always a struggle. The soul

is not conscious of its earlier state of light, the earthly body has caused its own darkening, only love will arise sooner

and more intense in such a person and disperse the darkness more rapidly too….

A soul from above will also always turn its eyes upwards towards God, Whom it very quickly learns to recognise. Such

a soul usually will not need a long time to unite itself with the divine spark within, which can easily influence it and then

spirit and soul try and succeed to influence their external shell too. Still, the fact that the soul is travelling the path across

earth is always associated with the self-evidence that the soul has to fight, because it constantly has to overcome

obstacles in this earthly-material world in order to attain the spiritual goal.

Thus no soul is able to ascend without pain, not even a soul of light, since at the beginning of its incarnation it has

descended into the abyss, into a state of ignorance, of constraint and weakness…. This should therefore always be taken

into consideration when the earthly life of an embodied being of light is assumed to be an easy one. The earthly body is

and remains a shackle for the soul until it leaves it.

And yet even the body can still vary. The flesh can still be steeped in sin, thus still incorporating much of Lucifer within

itself if it is born out of sin, if the people creating a new life are only controlled by satanic attributes. And then again, a

being, newly awakened into life, may owe its life to two people’s urge to love, predominantly good instincts could

Page 33: Jesus is the Christbd 1567 confess jesus christ before the world… divine protection bd 1762 battle against christ’s teaching… persecution of those who confess him bd 2929 redemption

33

therefore also have entered this being, and thus the external shell will be appropriately natured…. It will carry much of

the ‘genetic makeup’ within itself and more or less has to fight hard in earthly life and therefore also arrive at its goal

with more or less difficulty…. Yet no human being’s earthly existence remains without struggle…. A light being’s

earthly life is in fact frequently even exceptionally difficult, because the soul unconsciously experiences its stay in the

earthly world as torment and for the sake of its mission often also accepts a very arduous earthly fate.

The process of procreation is now, due to Adam’s failure, unblessed, for it did not correspond to God’s will, Who

wanted to give the first human couple His blessings at the right time…. Lucifer participated in the procreation of the

people, and he will never relinquish this right (granted to him through Adam’s will) either…. He will always participate

in the emergence of new life, even if people’s degree of love can keep him at bay to a point and God’s protection against

him is requested…. And now you will understand that God Himself, however, opposes His adversary, when He creates

a bodily shell for Himself which He wants to take possession of Himself one day and which should already serve Him as

an abode at the time of birth. For God Himself will never ever unite with His adversary in His activity.... And likewise

He will not allow the natural carrier of His shell to be taken over by His adversary…. For He, the God and Creator of

eternity, Who brought everything into being, Who assigned purpose and destiny to everything, truly has the power to

externalise from Himself everything He wants …. thus it will surely also be possible for Him to bring forth a human

being without the lawful act of procreation; and it will also truly be possible for Him to keep His adversary at bay until

His will is done….

For God only takes shelter inside a pure cover, He will not unite with something impure.... which, however, does not

exclude that the human being in this kingdom of imperfection, in the kingdom belonging to His adversary, is

nevertheless subject to all harassments and that his earthly progress is therefore no less anguished and full of conflict

like that of his fellow human beings. For without fight there could be no victory.... God’s adversary, however, had to be

defeated, and Jesus has truly won the most arduous battle which ever was fought on earth…. and He has won it as a

human being, not as God. AMEN

RESURRECTION ON THE THIRD DAY

To what extent you humans acknowledge My act of Salvation determines whether you believe in life after death, in a

resurrection from the grave into the kingdom of the beyond. Because the act of Salvation, My suffering and crucifixion,

found its culmination in the resurrection on the third day, which was meant to verify all My earlier teachings. It was

meant to provide people with the evidence that life is not over when the body dies but that spiritual life begins once a

person lives in accordance with My teaching. Admittedly, My resurrection is doubted and only taken notice of as a

myth…. And neither can it be proven, such teachings can only be believed or rejected. This belief is also a result of My

act of Salvation or an indication that the person is redeemed by Jesus Christ.... because he believes in Him as the divine

Redeemer and therefore also utilises the blessings of the act of Salvation. However, the fact that My body visibly

vanished from the grave does not mean that ‘the flesh’ had risen from the dead, instead My physical shell had

completely spiritualised itself due to My suffering and crucifixion. It was the spiritual garment the soul had put on,

which I only made visible to people in order to show them that death had finally lost its fear because I had conquered it.

My life on earth intended to show people the path that leads from the abyss to the pinnacle....

To every one of My teachings I attached the promise that eternal life would await them…. But I required faith in Me in

Jesus Christ.... Yet I found little of it, and even My disciples had little faith, and they were frightened to death when I

handed Myself over to My enemies.... Their faith was not yet strong enough to believe that I was also Lord over death,

consequently they did not remember My Words that ‘I will rebuild this temple in three days….’ Every one of My closest

followers was seized by great sadness, something had fallen apart for them when they had to witness My death on the

cross…. I wanted to help them, I wanted to strengthen their faith again and at the same time provide them with the

evidence that I Am Lord over life and death....

For this reason I made something visibly take place which, however, is granted to all souls.... that they cannot die but

wake up in another kingdom, which is in accordance to their life on earth. The soul leaves the body but this, still being

immature, stays behind. Therefore a person has no proof of a resurrection after death and neither can it be given to him,

on account of his freedom of will. But I was able to resurrect My body simultaneously because its substances had

spiritualised themselves, and thus My resurrection on the third day need not be doubted. However, not all people were

able to see Me, I only appeared to My Own because I had announced My resurrection on the third day to them, and

because their degree of maturity allowed for it…. But those who found My tomb empty looked for many other reasons

to explain the disappearance of My body, and therefore they were not compelled to believe. I had risen from the dead….

People had only been able to kill My body, and even this was no longer subject to natural law after My crucifixion, for it

was liberated from all constraints....

But a human being on earth only rarely achieves the degree of maturity which enables the body’s substances to align

themselves with the soul after the earthly death of the body, and therefore the belief in a resurrection is extremely fragile

or associated with wrong concepts. Therefore it has to be preceded by the redemption through Jesus Christ, because

someone who is still burdened by the guilt of sin is still completely under control of My adversary…. And he will

suppress every thought of a possible resurrection, he will only ever influence the human being in a negative sense and

thus also portray My act of Salvation and My resurrection as implausible to them. The fact that the resurrection on the

third day took place all the same will hardly be doubted by anyone who whole-heartedly professes Jesus Christ and His

act of Salvation, since My spirit will tell him so. And thus his thoughts will be guided correctly by Me, since I can work

through My spirit in every person who has found his way back to Me in Jesus Christ. He will not taste death anymore

either, because he will enter into the life which Jesus Christ promised him.... He escaped death because he escaped the

one who brought death into the world. And he escaped from him because he fled to Me in Jesus Christ. From the

moment of his surrender to Jesus Christ he has risen from the dead, only now has he come alive, and he will eternally

not lose his life again.

But even the disbeliever will not cease to exist, he, too, will only lose his earthly body and not his soul’s existence, it

will merely enter the kingdom of the beyond in a state which is similar to death…. The grave will keep it locked in, and

if Jesus Christ Himself does not roll away the heavy tombstone, it will stay there. But the divine Redeemer died for

everyone on the cross, and one day the hour of resurrection will come for every soul, because one day it will call for Me

in Jesus Christ, and I will not let its call go unheeded.… Then it will rise from the grave and awaken to life, then the

darkness of the grave will recede and it may behold the light…. Because I died for all human beings, and even those

who rest in their graves will take notice of the fact that I arose from the dead and that I will give life to anyone who

desires to live…. AMEN

RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD INTO LIFE…

Humanity was held in bondage.... and it would never have been released had I not sacrificed Myself to redeem the souls

from the one who held them captive. My overwhelming love motivated Me to make this sacrifice, to pay the purchase

price which gave me the right to seize the souls from My adversary, providing they themselves wanted to leave him and

follow Me. But the sacrifice I made by My crucifixion was intended for all once fallen spirits, it applied to all people

past, present and future. It was made for the spiritual essence which has taken, and has yet to take, the path across earth

as a human being.

I bought freedom and paid with My blood for every entity that once was pulled into the abyss by My adversary and is

kept there in bondage, and no being needs to stay in the abyss any longer against its own will. But it has to yearn to

leave the abyss, it has to want to ascend, it has to want to return to Me from Whom it once turned away voluntarily.

Hence its former rejection of Me was the cause of its death, because the abyss amounted to complete lack of light and

strength for the beings, the state of death…. So that it should rise from death into life, so that the being could rise from

its grave and step into new life again, I purchased a life for the dead with My death, and no being need be subject to

death forever, every being is able to rise from the dead just as I Myself came back to life on the third day….

But My adversary will want to prevent the beings from escaping his domain and therefore they have to be helped, since

they are unable to rise by themselves and My adversary keeps the grave, which engulfs the beings of darkness, tightly

locked. But one cry to Me will penetrate even the most impenetrable tombs, one cry to Me in Jesus Christ and I Myself

will hasten to help the weak and tormented soul, and My adversary truly cannot stand firm against Me Myself, he has to

leave because I paid the ransom and thus he has no further claim on the soul who wants to leave the grave of darkness,

the grave of sin and destruction ….

Do you now understand the significance of My act of Salvation, of My sacrifice on the cross, which was achieved for

the release of the once fallen beings? Do you understand why only your own will can lead to this salvation, why you

yourselves have to want to leave the grave before I can roll away the gravestone?

My adversary lays claim to you as long as you grant him this right, as long as you don’t resist the restraint he had put on

you, as long as you don’t call for the only One Who can remove this restraint. You only need your will and you will be

free.... because you will receive the strength to free yourselves as soon as you acknowledge Me in Jesus Christ, as soon

as you desire to be redeemed by Him and request His help. But then My adversary cannot hold on to you any longer, he

has to release you, then he has to accept that I roll away the gravestone and help you to rise, for I acquired the right to do

so through My death on the cross…. I paid the ransom on your behalf, and therefore it is not irrelevant whether or not

you humans on earth acknowledge the divine Redeemer Jesus Christ…. because you are wretched as long as you stay in

the grave…. And thus the day of resurrection will sooner or later come for every soul, just as I was resurrected on the

third day, and you will live and eternally not lose your life again…. AMEN

WITHOUT JESUS CHRIST NO LIBERATION

You need Me if you wish to be freed from your opponent. You cannot do it alone; you have to have help, and there is

only ONE who can bring it: Jesus Christ.... HE, Who has conquered the opponent through HIS death on the cross. I was

in HIM Myself ... HE and I are one! Therefore, you have to call for help to ME in Jesus Christ, and surely will be heard.

If you recognize only one God without being able to reconcile Jesus Christ, the divine redeemer, with this God, then you

are not yet convinced of your acknowledgment of a God. Then you only speak with your mouth, without having

conviction in your inner depth. And then you walk your earthly path without Me, and you will not be able to be freed

from that one who opposes Me and dominates you, and whose might you alone cannot break.

You need ME! This I can tell you because otherwise you do not fulfill your earthly purpose: the separation from him

whom you followed voluntarily, and the return to Me, to your God and Father in eternity! I am always ready to help you

to break away from him. But you have to ask for this help because your will must be in accordance with the knowledge

that it is I Who can free you .... for he has the same right as you as long as you agree with him who turned away from

Me.

But there is a remedy for your weakness as a fallen being. A man died for you on the cross for Love and mercy, He who

knew about your weakness and that it was impossible also for you to break the shackles that were put upon you by My

opponent ....even out of your own guilt.

In this man JESUS I have embodied Myself, because I felt mercy for your weak, helpless and suffering state, and

because I wanted to give you the opportunity to return to Me and to enter once more into your Ur-state, which for you is

liberty and bliss. As a human being, I was an expiatory sacrifice for you. I carried off the guilt of that one-time apostasy

from Me. I offered My opponent ransom for you as Myself in the man Jesus, so that he would set you free when you

longed for it.

But you must manifest this longing you have of your desire to return to Me, and you must join those whose souls I

purchased from their master.

You have to claim the help of Jesus Christ; you have to call Me in Jesus Christ. And you will be able to do it when you

believe in Him, in His work of redemption and in My "becoming man" in Him. When you also believe that you are

convinced in Me, I then become alive in you, and then you do not walk through your earthly existence without Me; then

surely, you will also reach your goal.

And so you should sincerely only once ask yourselves about the purpose and aim of your earthly life, and about your

true task. And you should keep always serious your will not to have been a failure when your life on earth draws to a

close. And if you have this will, then pray to the only ONE for help; HE alone can help you .... Jesus Christ. Because HE

and I are ONE.

And if you call HIM you call Me also, and your call will be heard. He who sincerely yearns to reach the goal of his

earthly life can be certain that his thoughts will be guided in the right direction, and he will recognize that without Jesus

Christ there is no redemption.

It is not for Me to decide the innermost will, the innermost longing to be free! I can only warn and admonish you again

and again; I can stimulate your thinking, but it is you who must act according to your innermost longing. And in

accordance with this will, once you have to leave this world, your state of maturity will be conditioned. AMEN

DON'T LET THE SACRIFICE ON THE CROSS BE IN VAIN!

My suffering and dying on the cross can also have been unsuccessful for you humans, the sacrifice on the cross can have

been in vain for you who do not allow yourselves to be impressed by it, who do not acknowledge the divine Redeemer

Jesus Christ, who merely take notice of the ‘human being Jesus’ but do not acknowledge His divinely spiritual mission,

and hence you exclude yourselves from those for whom the act of Salvation has been accomplished. You consciously

have to turn to Him if you want to participate in the blessings of the act of Salvation. The ‘salvation’ depends on you,

even though I died for all people on the cross.

But you humans do not know that you are constrained, that you can never enjoy freedom in light and strength without

deliverance through Jesus Christ but remain in captivity even if an infinitely long time will pass by.…You do not know

that the state of bondage, the lack of strength and light, can never be changed other than by way of the Calvary cross.…

And even if you reject the divine Saviour Jesus Christ, even if you ignore His accomplishment, it depends entirely on

Him how long you will be in an unhappy state…

You do not regard your human existence as very unhappy and therefore do not look for the One, Who can provide you

with a blissful fate. But your earthly existence as a human being does not last long, and only then will you become

aware of the torments of your inhibited state, then the energy of life, which was yours as a human being, is taken from

you.… providing you are not bound in hard matter and have to experience the agonies of confinement therein.

However, as long as you keep your self-awareness you still have the opportunity to call upon Jesus Christ, your

Saviour... be it on this earth or even in the kingdom of the beyond, if you are not absorbed by utter darkness. And for

this reason My love constantly endeavours to direct your thoughts to Him, in Whom I embodied Myself in order to

redeem you. Time and again I will try to bring Jesus’ achievement home to you. Time and again I will take care that His

act of Salvation will be mentioned and that you, who are still completely distant from the cross, who attach little or no

significance to anything in relation to Jesus Christ, will be given the information.

Every one of you will be approached and referred to Him sooner or later, every one of you can deliberate on the

information about Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation, and everyone can now respond to Him in accordance with his

will. But his attitude is decisive for an endlessly long time or even for eternity.… Because he may indeed have to stay

in torment and constraint for an infinitely long time, but he can also be eternally free, and in light, strength and

blissfulness thank his divine Saviour for the act of merciful love which had bought him his freedom and resulted in his

blissful previous state again. No human being is exempt from this decision, and every human being prepares his own

future fate.… but My love constantly helps him to make the right choice, My love constantly advises him, so that no

human being will be able to say that he was left uninformed of the means for his redemption.

But even My love does not determine your will.... For you have chosen this wretched state of your own free will, and of

your own free will you shall also make an effort to be saved from it again. And for this reason the salvation through

Jesus Christ requires your free will, otherwise the whole world would have been redeemed already, otherwise no-one

would be in bondage and weakness any longer, because the act of Salvation has been accomplished for all humankind.

But only your will utilizes the blessings of the act of Salvation, when you freely profess your faith in Him, Who died on

your behalf on the cross.… when you acknowledge Me Myself in Jesus Christ and thus want that I would have died for

you. Then you will be truly liberated from the state of constraint, you will pass from this earth redeemed and enter the

kingdom where you can be infinitely active and happy in light and strength. AMEN

JESUS CAME AS SAVIOUR

I descended to Earth for there was a great spiritual need, and I took Mercy on men whom My opponent kept in fetters,

and who could not resist, and cried to their God for a rescuer. But only a few still believed solidly and firmly that the

Messiah would come as it was written - and those few waited for HIM. In intense longing they waited for HIM as a

rescuer, out of the deepest need and affliction.

And it was for them that I descended, because their calls for help reached My ears and because I did not want to

disappoint them in their faith. And besides, the time had come for the mission of the man Jesus Christ. I wanted to

redeem the whole humanity from the bonds of the opponent, and wanted to redeem those who had passed away as well

but could not enter My realm before the great sin-guilt was paid, which was the cause of the existence of men on Earth.

I MYSELF descended to Earth in this man, to bring release to all people, and to free them from the fetters in which they

had been bound since Eternity, and to open to them the path to My realm - the realm of eternal Peace and Bliss.

When I descended to Earth, only a few people were ready to receive ME, i.e., only a few recognized ME - those that had

led a life in love. Therefore, the flock of My adherents was small in spite of the fact that I incessantly strove to inspire

people to activities of love, through which they could have recognized ME as their GOD and FATHER since eternity.

What made the misery so great was that there was little love amongst men; they were entirely in bondage to the one who

himself was totally without love – who faced ME as an enemy, and whom I wanted to fight in order to wrench by

victory the souls that he held captive. Therefore I lived in selfless Love amongst mankind, for Love was the weapon that

I wanted to use against My opponent, and that also gave strength to men to resist him.

Without Love they were wholly dedicated to him. But he could not hold out against Love; Love is the only weapon that

can vanquish him. However, at the time of My appearance on Earth, there was very little Love amongst men. Love was

the only tie between them and ME, their GOD and FATHER of Eternity, and this relation had to be restored if men

wanted to hear My Word.

My Word could no longer be heard by them because through their missing Love they had lost their faith in a GOD

WHO wanted to speak to them. Therefore, I MYSELF came to Earth to speak to them; to give them again a message of

My will and to offer them again My Love-commandments; to preach to them again the Gospel - the divine teaching that

would lead them to Bliss.

But I still had to bring mankind abundant help: I wanted to set them free from the power that bound them, the power that

weakened their will and prevented humanity from fulfilling My will. I wanted to redeem them from Satan's power. And

for this purpose I chose the form of the man Jesus, so that in HIM I could accomplish a work of Love and Mercy that

would free mankind from all misery.

But all people who wanted to be free from their torturer had to stand by My side. Those who remained with him

voluntarily, I could not rescue, but those who turned to ME received the Force from ME to loose their chains.

But this Redemption-Work also had to happen within the frame-work of the humans, because men should not be forced

in using their will. They should be completely free to recognize or to refuse the Work of Redemption through the man

Jesus - in whom I MYSELF was incorporated. Therefore I walked on Earth as the human being Jesus, and I prepared

humanity for the great Redeeming-Sacrifice that should expiate the immense sin-guilt, on account of which they lived

on Earth.

But only few recognized ME, and saw in ME the rescuer - the Messiah that Seers and Prophets had announced again

and again. The misery was overwhelming as I descended to Earth; but the Work of Redemption had been accomplished

because My love was also over-helming, and Love expiated the sin-guilt by sacrificing itself on the cross.

And this Love searches endlessly to bring help to humanity, to those who up to now had not found Redemption, to those

who have not made use of the Graces of the Redemption-Work and therefore still languish in the net of the enemy -

those who never can liberate themselves without help - those whom I never give up, however, but steadily influence by

pointing to the Redemption-Work of the man Jesus Christ, WHO, as "man", because of His Love recognized the

spiritual need of His fellow-men, and offered the Sacrifice of dying under the greatest pain on the cross.

And I will come always in the “Word” to men, and inform them about the supreme Love and Mercy-work of JESUS,

Page 39: Jesus is the Christbd 1567 confess jesus christ before the world… divine protection bd 1762 battle against christ’s teaching… persecution of those who confess him bd 2929 redemption

WHO received MYSELF, WHO through Love united completely with ME, and WHO became the Redeemer and

Rescuer from sin and death for all of you. AMEN

THE SPIRITUAL MISSION OF THE MAN JESUS

When you have understood the high spiritual mission of the human being Jesus, then it will be clear to you why the

divine Redeemer must be continuously mentioned - for only when man is free of his ur-guilt is an ascension into the

bright lights assured to him.

People do not know about their ur-guilt, and therefore they do not know what the Redemption-Work means. They

cannot find any connection between the death on the cross of the man Jesus - in WHOM they may still believe - and the

Salvation of humanity. And therefore so many people refuse HIM, because this Redemption-Work has only been

announced to them without any reason given.

On the other hand, such a reason can only be given to those who seriously wish enlightenment, and of those there will

always be only a few - for also the clearest explanation will be difficult to understand for those who cannot envision the

spiritual world, those who accept only the earthly one, and only that which can be seen and proven.

But the mission of the man Jesus was not solely an earthy matter, although it was visible to men. It had a deep spiritual

motivation. And as long as people do not know about it, they do not face the divine Redeemer, JESUS CHRIST, as

guilt-burdened brothers who burden HIM with their own guilt and beg HIM to cancel it. But this request must take

precedence if they want to find Redemption.

And therefore they must know about their sin-guilt, about the great offence against God that made them become sinners

and that could not be redeemed in any other way except through the great Sacrifice of Expiation by the man Jesus. As

long as people do not feel sinful, they, laden with their guilt, do not take the way that leads to HIM and to the cross, and

therefore they do not acknowledge the divine Redeemer.

Only the knowledge about their Ur-beginning, about their early state, and about their resistance to God - about their Ur-

guilt - can make it possible for them to receive as a gift the understanding of the Redemption-Work of Jesus, WHO lived

as man so that HE in HIMSELF could receive GOD. Thus was accomplished the Work of Redemption by the eternal

Love that desired to set free Its Creatures from the fetters of the opponent.

Such a presentation of Jesus' mission will be more believable to men than speaking solely of the sins that are committed

during their life on Earth, because those sins seem to humanity too small for such a Redemption-act to have been

necessary to cancel them. Truly, each sin is a trespassing against Love and so against God, but the Ur-sin of the ancient

apostasy from God was so tremendous that the being could not expiate it by itself, not even through all Eternity.

To understand this is difficult for you. But such an enormous sin asks also for enormous expiation, that was in- deed

done by a man, but HE could do it only because HE in HIMSELF harboured GOD. And so the Force of God enabled

HIM to do this, and the Force was "Love" - the Ur-substance of God.

Men, as Ur-created beings, have rejected the Love-Force of God and therefore they were left without any force. But the

man Jesus consciously accepted God's Love-Force and used it for a Work of Mercy for His fallen brothers, to alone for

their quilt.

Humanity, however, does not know that their existence as men on this Earth is the consequence of that Ur-guilt, and that

they will once again reach their Ur-state, but never without recognizing THE ONE WHO cancelled it, out of

overpowering Love. Because their apostasy from God was a conscious "turning-away-from-HIM", therefore it is

required that there be a conscious "returning-to-HIM" to make it possible once again to establish the Ur-relation with

God.

When you receive this knowledge, it will be a gift of un- heard Mercy, of which everyone should take advantage by

occupying his thoughts with it, and accepting it as the Truth that is given to him. And then he only has to turn to the

"man Jesus" and speak with HIM, and JESUS will answer him as GOD. HE will help him to reach the correct

understanding of his guilt - and HE will remove it when he repents and asks HIM for help.

Every single man can reach the realization that he must have once committed a sin - as soon as he thinks about the fact

that he is an imperfect, weak and ignorant being, and searches for the reason. No question that is so deeply felt can

remain without an answer - but the question has to be asked, which most people fail to do.

Without scruple, they reject every hint concerning the divine Redeemer when their attention is directed to HIM and to

Page 41: Jesus is the Christbd 1567 confess jesus christ before the world… divine protection bd 1762 battle against christ’s teaching… persecution of those who confess him bd 2929 redemption

41

His great spiritual mission. But God will announce again and again to humanity the divine Redeemer JESUS CHRIST',

and all His servants who work on Earth for HIM, will always preach with ever growing zeal HIS name and HIS Gospel,

in order to free all those from their great guilt who listen and draw closer to Jesus Christ in WHOM GOD HIMSELF

became man - to redeem those who are bound by His opponent. AMEN

THE SACRIFICE ON THE CROSS WAS OFFERED FOR TIME AND ETERNITY

I accomplished the act of Salvation for all times… As long as the return of the fallen spirit is not yet complete, the time

will come one day when this spirit will live as a human being on earth, and during this time it will need My help, which

will be guaranteed by Jesus Christ’s act of Salvation. The blessings gained on the cross have to be claimed during this

time if the human being finally wants to be liberated from his shackle which had caused his fall into the abyss, and

which My adversary had put on him and was able to put on him because the beings had followed him voluntarily. Hence

time and again a brief period of time will come for the once fallen spirit when it merely has to turn to the divine Saviour

Jesus Christ, and thereby also acknowledge Me Myself again in Jesus Christ….

And this brief period of time is the life of a human being on earth, when the being receives its free will back and has to

make a decision yet again.… Without help he could never make this decision because My adversary still keeps him in

captivity. But due to My act of Salvation it is possible for the human being to make this decision, he only needs to make

use of the blessings acquired for him to enable him to resist and to liberate himself from the opposing control. And for

as long as the earth serves as a place for the spirit to mature, for as long as people live on this earth, Jesus Christ’s

sacrifice on the cross will be humanity’s only guarantee of releasing itself from all bondage. Because it was offered for

time and eternity, it will never solely belong to the past, and it will never solely be effective at the present time.… All

future periods of redemption on this earth will only be successful in the sign of the cross for the souls who are embodied

as human beings on earth.

And even in the kingdom of the beyond Jesus’ redeeming strength can still be used, the Divine Redeemer has to be

called upon in the beyond too, because then My sacrifice on the cross, and thus I Myself, will still be acknowledged and

only this will lead to the separation from My adversary, which has to happen sooner or later if the being wants to attain

blissfulness.…

I accomplished the act of Salvation as a human being on this earth... and this was a particularly blessed earthly period

during which many of the once fallen spirits could have started on the path of return to Me. But their will was not and

can never be compelled; consequently, countless more creations will still have to emerge, or infinitely many periods of

creation will still have to follow. But they will all be governed by the act of Salvation, because there cannot be

redemption without Jesus Christ, although My merciful love will consistently convey the knowledge of the sacrifice on

the cross and the acquired treasure of blessings to humanity.

Time and again My spirit will be able to teach enlightened people, and time and again they will be able to understand all

correlations and thus will also be able to truthfully explain the meaning of Jesus’ act of Salvation to others, the act of

My human manifestation on earth, and the deification of the man Jesus. And this knowledge will be taken along from

one earthly period into the next and will never ever be lost.… since the act of mercy was accomplished for all human

beings, for all people past, present and future.… And no once fallen being can return to Me if it does not voluntarily

allow itself to be redeemed by Jesus Christ. AMEN

THE RIGHT ATTITUDE TO JESUS' REDEMPTION-WORK

The manner in which you regard the Redemption-Work and Jesus Christ will be decisive for the success of your life on

Earth. You received as a gift the grace of the embodiment as man, but you would not and will not accomplish anything

if you finish your life without Jesus Christ and His forgiveness of sin - for the entrance into the realm of Light is

forbidden to you if you have not previously been redeemed from your ur-guilt.

Only Jesus Christ, THE divine Redeemer, can open the doors to you, but that presupposes the forgiveness of your sins -

therefore also the acknowledgment of His Redemption-Work. And if you ponder the possibility that your life on Earth

might be lived in vain - that at the end you could be in the same condition, concerning your soul, as at the beginning of

your embodiment; when you realize then that your Earth-life was totally senseless - whether it might have brought you

pleasures or sufferings - you must, however, try to give the Earth-life the right meaning.

You must then strive more and more to form a beautiful life beyond - insofar as you believe, if at all, in a life after

death. But those who live indifferently, who do not believe in Jesus Christ and in His Redemption-Work, will also be in

need of faith in a further life after death.

Nevertheless, the knowledge of Jesus Christ should always be brought closer to them, so that their thinking will be

stimulated and they will repeatedly be moved to search and to find the right attitude towards HIM. And the slightest

willingness will also be prompted by HIM. HE will come toward the person and make it easy for him to gain faith in

HIM. But the freedom of will, will not be taken away, for man himself must decide for Jesus Christ - if the Redemption

is to take place.

People do not know how important it is to have found HIM. - For life on Earth is very short, and it can set the soul free

from every fetter, so that in the hour of death it can rise up as a Spirit of Light.

And the soul consented consciously to this embodiment as man, for it was informed beforehand about its life on Earth,

and also it was shown the goal. It had not been embodied by force as man, but every soul - once it has reached that

Grade of development which allows the state of being embodied as man - has the longing to get rid of the physical

cover, and then it knows also that the walk over the Earth as a human being offers the last chance. But it will be

deprived of this consciousness again as soon as it is engendered into a human form.

Therefore, it is of the utmost importance for evil soul to stay close to Jesus Christ, WHO made it possible for it to be

freed from its fetters through His Redemption-Work because, without the cancelling of the Ur-guilt, there is no

possibility of breaking away from the power of God's opponent.

And that should be announced to all people, and humanity should know the Truth about the meaning of Jesus Christ and

His Redemption-Work. - All people should think more about the purpose of their lives on Earth, and whether they live

according to the purpose. And he who seriously contemplates these questions will also receive answers in his thoughts

from the spiritual world, from God, WHO accomplished in the man Jesus the Redemption-Work to cancel that great Ur-

guilt; to enable mankind to walk through the door into the realm of Light. But without Jesus Christ the door remains

closed; without Jesus Christ no man reaches Bliss - for without Jesus Christ he remains in the power of the opponent

who will never set him free. AMEN

B.D. 7031, February 2, 1958

‘ALL POWER IN HEAVEN AND EARTH IS GIVEN TO ME (Matthew 28:18)’

I could speak these words with authority when I walked on Earth, for it was My FATHER, WHO was within ME, WHO

has given this power to ME - with WHOM I became ONE, and WHO therefore permeated ME totally, so that HE

HIMSELF acted within ME and through ME.

And this power remained with ME even after My Life on Earth. For only My earthly garment, before My ascension, was

of the human world; everything concealed in it was GOD, WHO made HIMSELF visible in JESUS CHRIST to all His

beings.

And so the "man" Jesus spoke the words: “All power is given to ME!", but it was the Deity in this man that decided

about the power.

I could therefore declare MYSELF as the ONE WHO had all power in Heaven and on Earth, for there was no separation

between the ETERNAL CREATOR-SPIRIT and THE ONE WHO had received ME into HIM. - And this power I will

not cede to any being aside from ME for it belongs to My ur- being, that is in Itself Love, Wisdom and Omnipotence!

Whoever understands this also realizes that My will alone reigns, and that therefore only delegates of My will can exist -

or beings that oppose My will - so that the first ones somehow reign with Me, while the others will have to be led.

However, though My Will and My Might will not diminish in all Eternity, I use them not incessantly, but I sometimes

permit those still opposing ME to act as well - but always only up to a certain limit - to make it quite clear whose Might

is infinite.

My Might alone assures the existence, as well as the progress and the possibility of accomplishment, while any adverse

activity - if not ended at the right time - would mean total destruction.

To ME, therefore, is given the power! That should be a hint for you to know to WHOM you have to go - WHO alone

can give you everything - in WHOM you should confide if you need a powerful protector and helper!

It is not the God in the distance Who will make you the gift of this help, but only THAT ONE, WHO stands in full

Might as divine Redeemer, Jesus Christ, because in HIM has been incorporated the "ETERNAL DEITY" (Colossians

2:9) - the Spirit of the infinite. For only with JESUS CHRIST can you enter into relationship with God; for only when

you call on Me in Jesus Christ can you recognize MYSELF; for there is no other God beside JESUS CHRIST, none

more powerful than HE! And thus, there is only ONE THAT reigns in the whole universe, to Whom all Creations are

subjugated and on WHOSE order innumerable beings take care of these Creations, and WHO arranges everything

according to His eternal Salvation Plan. From MYSELF they receive My orders; from MYSELF they are equipped with

the necessary force for their activity; and from MYSELF everything will be guided as it corresponds to My Love and

Wisdom.

And no being will ever be active against My Will while they look after the maintenance and supervision of the many

Creations. My Will flows through them, because they are perfect beings, glowing by My Will and by My Wisdom and

nourished through My Force - and therefore they are always only executors of My Will.

But where My Will retreats for a while, immature, still apostate beings press forward and act with hostility towards Me -

but always under My control, so that they will be tamed by My Will whenever I consider that it is necessary.

Only ONE reigns in Heaven and on Earth – only ONE has all the Might - before HIM all creatures of Light and dark-

ness must bow - for My Might is without end, and will re- main so in all Eternity. AMEN

REDEMPTION ONLY THROUGH JESUS CHRIST

You will never gain freedom without the Redemption-Work of Jesus Christ. These words have to be said to you again

and again, and you must know, that you are in a state of unredeemed are still held by My adversary.

As human beings you are not fully aware of his fetters be- cause you do not know of any other existence. Existence in

Freedom, Light and Force is completely unknown to you - but such an existence was yours from the beginning. You

were once free and could operate in the Light, and with Force, and you enjoyed boundless Bliss. As man you cannot

recall this state, and you may or may not believe it when you are informed about it. But if you do not believe it you

cannot try to shed your fetters, because to shed them you would have to believe in your Divine Redeemer Jesus Christ,

and call on HIM for help. But all humanity should desire to live in Freedom, Light and Force, because everybody can

indeed recognize that he is not happy in his existence as man on Earth; that he is in need of force to do everything he

desires - and that he has not the necessary enlightenment, the highest wisdom and boundless knowledge.

Man is not perfect as long as he walks the Earth separated from the Divine SPIRIT of his FATHER. This disconnection

was once caused by the being itself, through its alliance with My opponent, who was the first to apostatise from ME, in

unlawful attitude. And he now keeps the being imprisoned, and it can no longer liberate itself from him. And this being

must be helped, because it is too weak to do it alone.

But this help is only and solely Jesus Christ. If you humans want freedom - which is indeed possible on Earth - then you

have to call on Jesus Christ for assistance. You have to recognize Him as conqueror over my opponent and as the earthly

vessel in which I MYSELF dwelled to fight My adversary. That fight was possible only in earthly clothing - in the form

of a man that, like you, was weak and needed Divine Force to be able to vanquish the enemy.

And this Force was Love - My Ur-Substance - so that the Redemption-Work was thus accomplished by Love, i.e. by

MYSELF. And just as the man Jesus received from ME the Force that replenished HIM, so you, too, must ask ME for it,

because Jesus acquired that Force for you through His death on the cross. Only through Jesus Christ can you receive this

Force, or, in other words: You have to beg ME through JESUS that I again give you the Force that you once rejected.

And this you cannot obtain without the recognition of the Redemption-Work, because only through this will you be

forgiven for the immense ancient sin of apostasy from ME; for the Sacrifice of the cross cancelled this immeasurable

guilt.

For one who is of good will it is not difficult to under-stand, but the unwilling cannot grasp the connections and believe

them. However, he should not totally refuse this problem, but humbly confess his ignorance and, incompetence to reach

a correct understanding.

He should desire to receive the true enlightenment so that he may receive the necessary comprehension; he should take

to his heart the constantly given exhortations that no one can become blissful without Jesus Christ. And he should desire

wholeheartedly to be set free from his bondage state while still on Earth, for every human being realizes that it is not

free. Nobody feels perfectly happy on Earth, and every, human being suffers from periods of weakness. For every man

is burdened with the ur-guilt, which can be cancelled only through the Divine Redeemer, Jesus Christ. AMEN

REDEEMING FORCE OF THE NAME JESUS

In MY name you should seek Salvation - you should know that you cannot find Salvation anywhere else but with ME;

that by all means you must recognize MYSELF in JESUS CHRIST; that you must believe in THE Divine Redeemer and

in HIS work of Mercy.

In the man Jesus I MYSELF came to Earth; through His mouth I MYSELF taught humanity; through Him My Force

became revealed. Through HIM I worked miracles, wakened the dead to life and healed the sick and helped man in his

earthly misery. Within HIM I MYSELF died on the cross, for the man Jesus had received ME in fullness inside HIM,

because HE became Love and also became a useful cover for MYSELF, in which I could accomplish the Redemption-

Work to blot out the sin-guilt of the whole of humanity.

Therefore, the name of JESUS is the name of your GOD and FATHER of Eternity, and therefore you must gather

yourselves in this name and let ME dwell amongst you if you wish to reach Blissfulness that once made you

unspeakably happy. But you are still in want of that as long as you live on Earth.

It is therefore not enough to believe in "God", because such a faith means that you indeed acknowledge a Creator WHO

brought into existence everything around you, and therefore also yourself. But this faith does not lead you back to Him

unless you also recognize the Redeemer, WHO at first made the way practicable that leads to your GOD and FATHER.

And only in this way can you come to your "FATHER".

Therefore, you must believe in Jesus Christ and in His Redemption-Work, because only then is your faith right - only

then does your faith lead you to Salvation, i.e., your soul will only then be able to reach its former state, because Jesus

Christ must thereby help, and without His help it can never reach the goal.

You must therefore seek Salvation in My name. And you will now understand that it is not enough to desire to explore

the existence of God or to want to prove it, because this faith can be won by any man who only looks around with open

eyes and meditates about creation and about its origin. But what really matters is the Redeeming-Force of the name

Jesus.

You must first be versed in the significance of the Redemption-Work, to put yourself too under the cross of Christ and

to call the name of Jesus as the name of your GOD - and FATHER for the Salvation of your souls. For a new time

dawned with His coming to Earth, a time when through the death on the cross, the door was opened to the kingdom of

Light and the first wholly redeemed souls could return to the FATHER. For many souls stood before the door to

Blissfulness that had first to shed their Ur-sin-guilt in order to dwell again as blissful spirits in that place where their ur-

beginning started from. And only the Redeemer Jesus Christ, WHO therefore must be recognized by every man who

desires to reach his Ur-state, made this final homecoming into the HOUSE of the FATHER possible. Jesus Christ

Himself is the door into Heaven - and His name sounds everywhere in the spheres of Light, because in HIM, I am

MYSELF - HE and I are ONE.

And he who pronounces the name of Jesus, in deepest devotion, speaks therefore to ME, and I truly bring him the

Salvation. And therefore you will not pray without being heard when you call the name of Jesus in full belief, and bring

your request directly to MYSELF. Because when you believe in HIM and in His Redemption-Work, you are also free

from the burden of your Ur-sin, and then you will again have proof of My Love, and your childlike calling of My name

assures you also of My acceptance and the fulfillment of your prayer. I am always and ever your God and Creator - but

your FATHER, I could only become through the Redemption-Work; for only now you have received the force to change

yourselves in free-will to perfect beings, and only now, when you use your free-will to return to ME, can you become,

instead of "creatures" - My children! - And this free-will has been strengthened only through My death on the cross.

Therefore, in My name alone lies Salvation for you. Therefore are, you only then on the way of the return to ME, by

taking the path to Jesus Christ, because only this way leads back to ME in the House of the Father. AMEN

THE MERCY-WORK OF THE MAN JESUS

Remember always My endless Love for you that moved ME to fulfill for you the Redemption-Work. What the man

Jesus experienced and suffered on Earth, HE did out of Love for His fellow-men, whom HE knew to be in the greatest

spiritual need. HE, as man, already knew of the immense sin-guilt of men and their hopelessness to free themselves

from it without help. This knowledge was the result of His Life of Love, and therefore HE took pity on humanity and

HE wanted to help it.

But, at the same time, HE was aware that as a result of His Love, HE had to fulfil a mission - that I MYSELF had sent

HIM to Earth so that HE could serve ME as cover, and in this manner I MYSELF could accomplish the Redemption-

Work and with it cancel the great sin-guilt. And according to this mission His life on Earth was accomplished: a way of

immeasurable miseries and suffering that obliged Him to mature early, because in the midst of the sinful humanity His

soul was afflicted with thorns. For His soul came from the realm of Light, down to darkness.

But the earthly cover which contained the soul had to go through that suffering and distress, through constant fights

against acquired desires and passions; it first had to be purged to become finally a worthy receptacle for MYSELF; and I

then filled HIM entirely and became One with HIM.

And now began His proper mission: To bring Light to humanity, to announce to them the Truth; to preach the Gospel of

Love; to live as an example and to show them the way that they too must walk if they wish to enter after their death into

the realm of Light and Bliss. And lastly, to close His earthly passage with an incomparable work of Mercy: with His

most bitter way of passion and the most painful death on the cross, as Sacrifice for the sin-guilt of humanity.

And this mission was performed indeed by a man, but I MYSELF was in this man. I MYSELF as the eternal Love

accomplished the Redemption-Work, because only Love could endure the grief of the passion-way and only Love could

produce the Force to bear patiently all this in full consciousness until His death.

And when the man Jesus cried on the cross the words: "My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?", it was only a

confession that God in HIM did not urge HIM to this act, but that the man Jesus, in full freedom of will, offered the

Sacrifice for His follow-creatures; that the Love in HIMSELF led to the execution, but did not constrain HIM in His

thinking and action.

The man Jesus took the whole burden of the sin of all mankind on His shoulders and walked with it to the cross. None of

you people can understand these words in their full meaning. I MYSELF accomplished the work of Mercy, because

even the man Jesus would not have been able to do so without Love - to take on such a measure of suffering and torture.

But inasmuch as the Deity could not suffer, therefore a soul, able to suffer, was obliged to endure the degree of pain and

grief - a man, whose body was sensitive to pain and who in a way atoned for what humanity's guilt unloads on God. HIS

soul suffered beyond description, because it came from the realm of Light and the darkness on Earth was tremendous

torture for it.

The man Jesus was "My Son" whom I treasured very much. He was devoted to ME with all His senses and leaned on

ME with all His Love. HE humbled Himself in the midst of sinning humanity, and His soul searched incessantly for

ME, His GOD and FATHER of Eternity. His Love forced ME into an uninterrupted flowing-in within HIM, and thus

there could take place the unification between MAN and GOD - which, in accordance with the lawful order, could result

in "God's becoming man".

I could never have chosen a human form to dwell in that had not been pure Love, for I MYSELF could not unite with

something impure. And each immature substance was spiritualised through the passion-path of the man Jesus, and at the

same time the sin-guilt was cancelled for the whole of mankind, because ONE out of Love sacrificed HIMSELF for His

fellow-men.

The man Jesus glorified MYSELF through His death, whilst I glorified HIM by choosing HIM as the visual cover of

MYSELF for Eternity - by becoming a visible Deity in HIM for all My created beings who are worthy of "seeing God".

As long as you live on Earth you should always put before your eyes My endless Love that helped you to your liberation

through the Redemption-Work. Only then will you fully understand this work of Mercy in its total depth, when you

yourself have entered the realm of Light, and when the Light of cognisance will shine through you, as before. Then you,

too, will be able to take part. You will live it yourself as in the present, and understand then My infinite Love that did

everything to win back My children, those who had been lost through that great guilt of the apostasy from ME. AMEN

CALL DAILY UPON THE NAME OF JESUS

With Me and in My name you shall start every day, deal with every undertaking and thus fulfil your daily tasks, and you

can also be certain that your work will be blessed, be it earthly or spiritual activity. But as soon as you walk alone, that

is, without having asked for My assistance, you will do a lot of pointless work, you will have to struggle with difficulties

or it will not always be successful. Just a heartfelt thought of Me will already assure My assistance, and if you

consciously call upon Me for My blessing and support then everything will turn out just right by itself, and you will be

able to calmly carry out your day’s work. You should always know that you are besieged by dark forces which are able

to access you if you fail to surround yourselves with a protective wall by calling upon My name, by appealing to Me for

blessing your work. And once they have gained access to you it will be far more difficult to repel them again than it

would be if you had refused access to them from the start. For they weaken you will, which can only catch up with what

it had neglected to do by summoning all its strength: by calling to Me for help.

The battle for your souls is constantly fought, and your victory is often made difficult by these dark forces, but this is

frequently up to yourselves, because you can request unlimited strength and should always do this through heartfelt

prayer for My guidance, My protection and My blessing…. This is why you should never start your daily work without

Me, you should call My name in your heart, appeal for reinforcement of your will and completely hand yourselves over

to Me …. Then I can protect you from your souls’ enemy, then you will be surrounded by countless beings of light who

will refuse to admit him, then you will cheerfully and free of worry carry out your daily work in the awareness of

strength and inner peace. And then nothing will be able to upset you anymore because you know that I Am always

present and arrange everything.

The inner bond with Me is the best guarantee for bringing all your plans to fruition, be they earthly or spiritual affairs,

for then I Myself can always influence you and your thoughts and direct your actions such as is right and beneficial for

you. Yet as soon as you isolate yourselves from Me, as soon as you loosen the connection, different thoughts transmitted

by My adversary will begin to dominate you and deprive you of your inner calm, they will worry you and leave you

open to bad forces which will continue the work of inner disintegration and discord, so that even your daily work will

not be blessed and your soul will be at risk of being captured by him.

And again, you can only release yourselves from this danger if you take refuge in Me, for I Am ready to help you in

your spiritual difficulty at all times. But without Me you cannot free yourselves from him and his influence, without Me

you are too weak and therefore at his mercy. However, you can avoid all such pressures if you hand yourselves over to

Me and My protection time and again, if you always appeal for My blessing, if you commend your physical and

spiritual wellbeing to Me and never neglect to call upon My name…. and thereby openly acknowledge Me in Jesus

Christ…. Then you will be erecting a wall which My adversary will not be able to pull down, for he will take flight from

Me and My name, and thus he will also let go of you if you just faithfully speak My name in every adversity and danger.

AMEN

UR-SIN AND SIGNIFICANCE OF THE REDEMPTION WORK

And so I will always remind you that I died for you on the cross. I will remind all you people on Earth and all

unredeemed souls in the beyond. I will bring it again and again to their remembrance. I must inform you about it if you

are yet unaware of it, because you must not remain ignorant if you should ever want to reach Blissfulness.

Of what use is it to humanity to know about the "Man Jesus" who ended his earthly existence with the death on the

cross, if you ignore the spiritual meaning of his death on the cross and the mission that Jesus accomplished for the sake

of the sinners? And even if it will be told to you: He redeemed humanity from sin - you will not find any connection;

only words whose meaning you don't understand remain with you.

And as long as you do not know the purpose of man's existence on this Earth, you will not be able to understand why

mankind is called sinful - even though none of you is free of sin. But the real importance of the Redemption- Work

through Jesus Christ will become obvious when you know about the ur-sin, which is the cause of your pilgrimage on

Earth.

This sin cannot be compared in its enormity with the sinfulness of man, even if the latter is only the consequence of the

first. For whatever sins a person commits on Earth, he would be able to repent for them on Earth, or in the beyond;

however, even for this repentance, very much time would be necessary".

But to repent the UR-SIN is impossible for you people, either during your Earth-life or in the beyond. For this ur- sin

was not committed by a being that was already imperfect, but by beings of "highest perfection", who were not in need of

light of knowledge, but who let themselves be controlled by the thought: "to be able to overwhelm ME"; therefore they

became arrogant in their fullness of Light and Force.

Men cannot atone for this sin, because it is immeasurably great, and eternity would not suffice to free them from that

guilt.

Through this sin, these beings fell into the abyss, which means that they lost Light and Force; they turned, so to speak,

into the opposite - they lost all divine traits and accepted instead all bad qualities and drives. They became My

opponents - until their spiritual substance hardened to such a degree that they were no longer able to be conscious of

their own being.

And this hardened spiritual I banished in the Form; in other words, I dissolved it into countless spiritual particles and

created those into an unending number of Creation-Works, which My Love, Wisdom and Might produced only for the

purpose of guiding those fallen spirituals back again to ME. They were ordained to Blissfulness, which they can only

find with ME.

This passing through the Creation indeed is also an act of repentance for that immeasurable guilt, but it happens in a

state of compulsion - in bound will - and therefore cannot be valued as payment for that guilt. The being must once more

revert to the condition where it voluntarily desires to get rid of its guilt; when the knowledge can be imparted that it has

trespassed - but that there exists nevertheless a way to be set free from this great guilt. It must know that this way is the

way to the cross: that to be free of the ur-guilt is possible only through the acceptance of the divine Redeemer and His

Work of Redemption - and that this way to the cross must be walked during one's life on Earth, so that after the bodily

death, one can be accepted again into the realm of Light which is the true home of man.

Also in the beyond, the souls are informed about My Work of Redemption, and there, too, they can still take the way to

ME in Jesus Christ. But they can no longer reach this high grade of perfection, which they may have reached on Earth

through the acceptance of JESUS as Son of God and Redeemer of the world, in WHOM I MYSELF incorporated to find

their recognition, which they once denied to ME.

You humans must know about the great significance of this Redemption-Work: You must not mention the name of

JESUS only as the name of a man that once walked over the Earth with high ethical aims. It was a significant mission

for which HE dwelt on Earth, and this, you should try to learn about, as long as there is any obscurity in you. For it

depends upon your comprehension and good will whether your walk on Earth is terminated successfully and whether the

Kingdom that is truly your homeland will accept you again. AMEN

*Abraham came from the Chaldean place called "Ur". The Judeo-Christian belief regards this place as the source of

all further religious life. When therefore "ur" is used as a prefix to a word, it will indicate that it dates from the most

Page 50: Jesus is the Christbd 1567 confess jesus christ before the world… divine protection bd 1762 battle against christ’s teaching… persecution of those who confess him bd 2929 redemption

50

ancient time even before the Creation of the material world. Since "Ur" is familiar to all Bible readers, it will be used

in the text as a synonym for "origin" - primal, primitive, ancient and primordial. (The translators)

GOD BECOME VISIBLE IN JESUS CHRIST

Anyone who professes Me will also be admitted into My kingdom, for he will already be an aspirant to My kingdom as

soon as he has found the path back to Me from Whom he once separated of his own free will. He no longer

acknowledged Me, and this was the sin against Me, his God and Creator of eternity, which could not be redeemed in any

other way than through the conscious acknowledgement of Me Myself…. And in order to enable the human being to do

so I personified Myself in the human being Jesus…. For the reason for apostasy from Me rested in the fact that My

living creations were unable to behold Me…. Hence they turned to the one who was visible to them who, in a manner of

speaking, participated in their emergence and who, despite greatest awareness, volitionally dissociated himself from the

Deity Whom he, too, was unable to behold. And thus I became a visible God for you humans in Jesus Christ, and as a

result of My human manifestation the reason to deny Me acknowledgment actually no longer applied …. But now the

acknowledgment of Me at the same time also requires the acknowledgment of Jesus Christ’s act of Salvation ….

Due to the immense guilt of the original sin a redemption from it became necessary for you humans, the guilt had to be

redeemed first because I could not accept sinful living creations anymore, or, My justice demanded an atonement for

this guilt which only then would restore the former relationship between the living creations and Myself again…. which

had been disrupted by the said sin. This act of atonement for humankind was thus offered by the human being Jesus;

nevertheless, I manifested Myself in this human being Jesus for I wanted to redeem you humans from the great guilt

Myself, it is just that I had to avail Myself of a human cover which then, however, should eternally shelter Me within

itself, so that My beings would be able to behold their God and Creator, so that they would be able to recognise and love

their Father in Him, Whom they then could wholeheartedly approach without having to vanish as a result of His fire of

love….

And thus everyone who acknowledges the divine Redeemer Jesus Christ has started the path of return into the Father’s

house, because he simultaneously acknowledges Me Myself in Him and, as a result of the act of Salvation, his original

sin is redeemed. He will therefore also be admitted into My kingdom, I will come to meet My child as Father, for I

Myself never separated from him, I merely accepted his will which had turned away from Me because it was free. And

thus free will has to become active again and strive to return to Me. This is demonstrated by the person through his

conscious acknowledgment of Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation and the conscious relationship with Him through his

call and appeal for deliverance. For he knows that he is restricted as long as he has not yet found Me in Jesus Christ.

The acknowledgment of Myself is a free act of will which, however, changes a state that had lasted an eternity, which

leads from death into life, out of the night and into the light…. For the acknowledgment of Me will also, and without

fail, entail a change of character, the human being will re-enter the divine order.... he will leave the region which has

been his abode for endless times and enter the spheres of light, albeit his body still remains on earth…. But the soul....

the once fallen spirit.... strives towards its home again, for the acknowledgment of Me Myself in Jesus Christ will

always be associated with a transmission of strength and light so that the person will recognise what is right and good

and thus his intentions and actions have to be good and right too. For now I will not leave the side of My child again

which has found Me, and with My guidance it will also reach its goal with certainty, it will be accepted as My child in

the Father’s house where it will live in freedom and light and blissful happiness, where it will create with Me and in My

will as is and has been its destiny since the beginning. AMEN

PROOFS OF THE EXISTENCE OF JESUS ON EARTH

The opportunity is given to every human being to discover the secret of the "becoming Man" of God, and every man can

then have proof of the existence of Jesus, WHO, as "Son of God and Redeemer of the world" will be revealed to him, so

that every other proof is unnecessary.

But he who has once understood the "becoming man of God", also knows that, and why, faith is required - why proofs

do not promote but rather harm the maturing process of the soul - for which purpose man walks on Earth.

That GOD HIMSELF was embodied in Jesus Christ, in the man Jesus, is and remains unbelievable for those people who

have no spiritual connection whatever, and to whom the spiritual strive seems strange.

Under "spiritual strive", therefore, one can understand the process of the development of a soul that did not receive the

Earth-life as self-purpose, but only as means to the purpose. He who is not spiritually motivated is also not awake, i.e.,

his thinking is more easily influenced by mistake rather than by Truth; he will sooner accept a mistake and let it act as

truth. Therefore, the pure Truth, in return, will seem to be unacceptable precisely because his spirit is still darkened,

which does not mean his reason, but the spark within man that is a divine share.

This person will not give any credit to a purely spiritual cause - and therefore, the becoming man of God, as a

“consequence" of such a "spiritual cause", will be incomprehensible for him.

But it took place! GOD begot HIMSELF in a man. And this human being was Jesus, the son of Mary, Whose Father was

the Spirit of God. Nothing as permitted to force mankind to faith. And therefore the birth of Jesus was subjugated to

human laws, but not the "procreation"!

Humanity should have no doubts about this when they consider that all Created, as well as the complete complex of the

Creation-Work, came about through God's Force, and that therefore it is also possible to, that Force to create a human

being out of His Will.

But this birth without procreation has also its spiritual causes that are very easily understood by an awakened spirit. And

therefore man has to know that the whole Creation-Work had spiritual causes, founded on the free- will of the Ur-

created spiritual beings; and that this free- will plays an important part also in the existence of man - the once created

Ur-spirit; a part that is significant and is also the explanation for there being no proofs - or only a few - to be found of

the "existence of Jesus".

No sort of coercion should include man to take a positive or a negative attitude towards Jesus Christ, THE divine

Redeemer - a complete freedom of will must decide the attitude towards HIM, because only on that depends the spiritual

regeneration of man to the Ur-created being, for which Regeneration man lives on Earth.

That which can be proven forces a decision to be made by man. But no man should be coerced to that decision if the

formerly spiritual perfection of the Ur-being should once be achieved, which is the purpose and the goal of the whole

Creation-Work.

Therefore, man must know beforehand about the Ur-beginning and the goal of all that exists - about the sense and

purpose of the Creation and of all the existing created beings therein. But he will never gain this knowledge from books

- he must be made aware of it by the "Spirit of God" - WHICH is ITSELF the Eternal Truth.

But this requires conditions that every man is certainly able to fulfill, though only few want to fulfill them! God's Spirit

can only manifest Itself where these conditions exist, such as: A living faith in God, that can come to life only through

"Love" - and a conscious claim for the "Truth out of God" - to receive the Truth precisely in faith from HIM.

And it will be given to mankind, for the Spirit out of God now unites with the spirit-spark in man - which is HIS share -

and man will be taught through the Spirit.

Whoever cannot, or does not want to believe such a thing will never enjoy wisdom - the light of knowledge. But to him

who believes it, there will be unveiled the most glorious revelations, and he will recognize clearly what is for other

people beyond understanding. He will be able to comprehend the links, and for him the becoming man of God in Jesus

is now a wonderfully resolved problem, for which he no longer needs any proof - for now he can see through alt this

Page 53: Jesus is the Christbd 1567 confess jesus christ before the world… divine protection bd 1762 battle against christ’s teaching… persecution of those who confess him bd 2929 redemption

53

more clearly, remaining more convinced than possibly by the most brilliant intellectual approach.

For an awakened spirit, then, it is unimportant how much time elapses between the life of Jesus on Earth and the

present, because this walk of Jesus was not an act which concerned a certain circle of people, but was. undertaken for all

men of the past, present, and future. - All men will know about this walk on Earth by Jesus, but will not need proof of it,

as their spirit is awakened.

But without the awakening of the spirit, the keenest proof would not be any good for obtaining the maturity of the soul,

for faith built on proofs is not faith that respects the free will, which alone is to be valued. The "intelligence" of man has

nothing, or only very little, to do with the "awakening of the Spirit" in mankind. The latter is the consequence of a life of

Love - a life in unselfish love for one's neighbour. And, therefore, the exploration of the deepest secrets is never a

privilege of intellectual activity, but the privilege of only those who live according to the commandments of God, that

the man Jesus taught while HE was on Earth: "Love God above all and thy neighbour as thyself."

The effect of the fulfilment of this commandment is the surest and most clear proof of the existence of Jesus, for then

the spirit out of God leads man to all Truth and gives him all the explanations of the spiritual connections that will never

be obtained through reason. AMEN

RESSURECTION ON THE THIRD DAY

And you all can rejoice, for the Lord has risen from the dead.... Thus it rang out in the kingdom of the spirits as well as

with My Own to whom I appeared on the third day when I had left the tomb and showed Myself to My disciples….

Deep sadness had entered their hearts for they had lost what had been their sole purpose in life throughout the time they

had spent with Me on earth.

They believed that they had lost Me to death forever, since they did not and could not believe that I would rise from the

dead, even though I had informed them of it before. The disciples were still earthly bound in that way and the reality of

the earthly world was sobering to them, they were seized by so much fear and lamentation that I wanted to comfort and

strengthen them and thus appeared to them after My resurrection…. I had given them the task of going out into the

world and proclaiming Me, that is, spreading My divine teaching of love and informing people of the act of Salvation

which I had accomplished for all humankind…. But in order to carry out this mission they had to be completely

convinced of the truthfulness of their proclamations….

And the act of Salvation also included My resurrection which ultimately was the crowning glory of the work of

Salvation, for the people should be informed that I had defeated death, that death need never ever be experienced again

by anyone who follows Me, who wants to receive the blessing of My act of Salvation and who thus leads the kind of life

that I had lived on earth. Hence he will not need to fear death anymore because I had defeated death and thus also the

one who had brought it into the world. And that is why My resurrection was visibly witnessed by people, that is, only by

those whose degree of maturity permitted spiritual vision since My body was spiritual, it was no longer a body of flesh

and therefore only visible to those who already possessed the ability to see spiritually and to whom I therefore also had

announced My resurrection.

The fact that My tomb was empty certainly also surprised the other people, yet they all looked for other explanations

than that I had risen from the dead…. And this teaching will simply always require a ‘belief’ which, however, can be

acquired by all people who voluntarily step under My cross, if they want to belong to those for whom I died the most

bitter death on the cross. The belief in Me and My act of Salvation simultaneously includes the belief in My

resurrection, because a soul having been redeemed by My blood already has the inner certainty of an indestructible

life….

The disciples were not yet permeated by My spirit, they were still in the dark after My crucifixion, for their fear did not

allow any light. And thus I helped them by means of My visible appearance but which then convinced them so

overwhelmingly and made them so joyful and happy that they now thought they could easily carry out their mission and

with increased strength wanted to apply themselves to the proclamation of My teaching and My crucifixion as well as

My resurrection. In the days after My resurrection I was able to convey instant strength to My disciples, for the salvation

of their souls had progressed and they were already able to free themselves from their previous lord, and then they

unhesitatingly proceeded with their preaching ministry because they knew that they could no longer die, or that only

their body could die but that they would continue to live in My kingdom, and thus death had now lost its sting for them

too….

Hence the act of resurrection was more or less first an aid for My Own, whom I had left behind in utmost psychological

distress because their faith had still not reached the necessary steadfastness for their task of spreading My Word

throughout the world…. But they were meant to speak on My behalf, and therefore they had to also have this convinced

faith which only required their complete redemption, but then all My disciples irrefutably possessed this faith so that

they were able to be truly devoted proclaimers of My teaching once their mission began. AMEN

JESUS, THE GOOD SHEPHERD

I will send people your way to whom you shall proclaim the Gospel, yet there will only ever be few who will listen to

you and take your words to heart. It is just a small flock which will follow Me, their shepherd, and I will keep this small

flock together and won’t allow My sheep’s pen to be broken into and My sheep stolen, for I Am a good shepherd, Who

will sacrifice His life for His sheep. All of you who listen to My call as soon as it is voiced belong to My flock….

And My call is always My Word by which I Myself speak to you from above…. My call is the coaxing call of a good

shepherd Who does not want to lose even one small sheep from His flock, and Who speaks Words of love to you in

order to hold on to you, in order to warn and admonish you that you will not get entangled in the snares of the one who

wants to steal you from Me. I will indeed let you have free will, and if you roam over wide pastures you will be able to

go wherever you want but a good shepherd will follow his flock and look for those who have gone astray, who have left

the right path and got stuck in ravines or on heights. A good shepherd will coax and call to let them find their way back

to him, so that they will take refuge by pushing close to him and return home with him, where peace and tranquillity will

await them at the end of the day and after the long walks through the pastures.

The characteristic of a good shepherd rests in the fact that he will not leave his sheep to their fate when the night sets

in…. For so many a small sheep will go astray, it will digress from the right path and get stuck on the heights, it will

venture into unfamiliar fields where it can be caught and killed, it will leave the path and lose its flock and the

shepherd…. And then a good shepherd will follow and call until he has found it.... And joyfully he will bend down

lifting the small sheep onto his arms in order to carry it back to the flock and drive them towards the home enclosure.

And thus I, too, will follow all people who had left Me as their good shepherd, who are taking their own paths, who

have gone astray in the world and intend to go up in the world….. They are all small sheep who have gone astray, who

are particularly close to My heart and whom I dearly want to win back for Myself again, whom I would like to count as

My Own and whom I therefore continue to coax and call with My Word, that they will comply with it and lovingly

approach Me again, from Whom they had distanced themselves. And therefore My Word will sound from above time

and again, and whoever receives it shall pass it on in the world, for people urgently require My Word, My loving appeal

which is intended to call them back home….

And I truly know who will need My Word, and these are the ones I will send to you so that you will be able to carry out

your vineyard work on them, so that you will be able to do labours of love for Me as the good shepherd and also be able

to return the little sheep to Me again, which had left the flock and yet shall come back to Me once more because they

will not be able to become blessed without Me.

There will not be many more who will be impressed by My Word, rather, most people will refuse listening to you, for

My flock has scattered and has been driven away by the enemy who unlawfully takes what refuses to surrender of its

own free will …. And yet the good shepherd’s coaxing call shall sound time and again, for as soon as they voluntarily

turn to Me once more I will also be able to fetch them back and lead them to their home enclosure.

Therefore you, too, shall coax and call when you spread My Gospel throughout the world. Tell people about the good

shepherd Who is continually searching for His sheep and wants to place them under His faithful protection…. Tell

people that a God of love exists Who is only waiting for them to come to Him in every adversity, Who, like a good

shepherd, wants to lift every small sheep onto His arms, Who is offering refuge and protection to it in His presence, so

that all human beings will be safe and secure with Him. AMEN

JESUS AS LEADER

Whither goes your way, if you have not chosen Me as your leader? This you should repeatedly ask yourselves, and

desire nothing other than My becoming your leader, to Whom you can entrust yourselves and walk by His hand through

earth life.

And verily, you shall be led aright at all times; you shall not be walking wrong tracks or be diverted from your goal; you

shall always be walking the correct ways by which you will reach the heavenly kingdom, because you are then on the

Way to the Father's house - your eternal Fatherland. But you need to ask for My leadership. I do not force Myself upon

you, I will not try to determine this or that Way for you, against your free will.

I want to be asked in order to make My appearance as your leader, always and everywhere. I want you to ask me to

guide and lead you over all uneven paths, and I want you to hand yourselves over to My guidance unreservedly and

follow Me wherever I go before you, in order for Me to guide you to the eternal home. Because only one path leads

there, one that is steep and costing much effort, demanding strength, a strong rod and support for your safe passage.

Always allow Me to be your leader, and you shall soon be incapable of going wrong, - you shall have no misgivings

about the path diverging or being impassable for you in your feebleness. Where I precede you, you can follow without

reservation, as I know how it is best for you to reach your goal; and I shall verily shorten your way, clear it of all

obstacles, carry you over all obstructions and always take you by the hand, so that you may reach your goal with

certainty. But you need to entrust yourselves to Me unreservedly, you must not hesitate or fear erroneous guidance,

because you shall never find a better leader in earth-life than I, regardless of any true friends you may find among your

fellow-men, as these nonetheless do not know the upward path to Me. And hence you should always keep to Me, but

then drop all apprehensions because once you trust Me, I reward your trust and take you into My protective care, along

your path of life. You shall hardly perceive your ascent, for to walk with Me means to also receive My strength to hold

unto My hand and then effortlessly put the ascent behind you, for which you dwell on earth; because your path has to

ascend.

So long as you tread even ground, your path is not the right one, because your goal is above and hence requires strength,

which you can always receive from Me, once you have chosen Me as your leader for your earth life. But difficult this

life is if you walk alone, or give My adversary the right of companionship, who shall know only too well how to

decorate your path and fill it with temptations, so that you do not perceive that it does not lead upward but into the

abyss.

Then you are in great peril, because you prolong or make impossible your repatriation to Me, as I am not to be found in

the depths, and the path through lovely meadows and effortless passes, trodden by the children of this world; this path

does not lead to Me but inevitably into the depth, whence an ascent is then terribly difficult, taking endless times again.

Yet the leader has to be chosen by yourselves; you only need to approach Me for taking over your guidance through

earth life, and I shall be with you and displace that other one, if he tries to accompany you. Because if you call to Me as

your leader, then you are relieved of all responsibility, then I act for you and steer and lead you upon proper paths, so

that you reach your goal with certainty: that you return to Me, your true Fatherland, - that you stop off at your Father

house, where I await you, to link up with you into all eternity. AMEN

JESUS’ LAST WORDS ON THE CROSS

I always want to give to you what you desire. You only need to take notice of your inner voice and it will instruct you

truthfully, because I want you to live in truth and gain a clear understanding: My crucifixion has brought salvation to

you humans, it has redeemed your past guilt of sin…. As the human being Jesus I took extreme pain upon Myself, and a

most bitter death was My fate…. However, since I was unable to suffer as ‘God’ I took abode in a human shell which

was capable of suffering and which also mustered the will to suffer on behalf of His fellow human beings in order to

satisfy My justice, in order to open up the path to Me for His fallen brothers. Yet His will was free.... He was not

impelled by the Deity within Him to accomplish the sacrifice He wanted to make for Me…. although love…. Which

was Myself…. was the cause for which He mustered this will… Yet I Myself never coerce the will of a human being

and neither does My love. However, anyone who has love can’t help himself but emanate it. And thus, the human being

Jesus, too, radiated love and thereby only wanted to please humanity. Hence He only ever wanted what would help

people to become blissfully happy. The will of the human being Jesus was free…. yet He had completely subordinated

Himself to Me and My will. Consequently, His will could not be different to Mine. For the love in Him was so powerful

that it had merged with the Eternal Love, with Myself.... Thus I Myself was in Him, and I Myself achieved in Him the

act of Salvation ….

And yet, the human being Jesus had to take the final decision Himself when He undertook the most difficult journey….

the path to the cross. And even though I, the Eternal Love, was in Him, My divine Spirit withdrew, that is, Love… the

spirit…. no longer urged Him into action; it kept quiet and apparently left the human being Jesus to struggle on His

own…. And this was the most difficult of all, the fact that the man Jesus felt alone in His suffering and nevertheless

walked the path until the end…. He was not alone, for I would never have been able to separate Myself from Him again,

Who had become one with Me…. But I no longer expressed Myself, because the atonement of the original sin

necessitated an extreme amount of human suffering and torment which the human being Jesus had readily taken upon

Himself, and therefore the sacrifice of atonement has been the work of the most merciful love that was ever

accomplished on earth. And these pains lasted until His death on the cross and made Him proclaim ‘My God, my God,

why have You forsaken me….’ I was in Him but I did not speak, yet it was only the body which suffered until His soul

recognised Me again, when He called ‘It is finished….’ and ‘Father, into Your hands I commit My Spirit….’

The body suffered until the end and I had to withdraw Myself during these hours or His already spiritualised soul would

have rendered the body insensitive to pain, because My spirit is unable to suffer. And the human being Jesus had already

attained the spiritualisation of soul and body as a result of His way of life on earth…. But the purpose and objective of

His earthly progress was the redemption of the guilt of sin, which was only possible by way of an excessive extent of

suffering and pain…. Hence the ‘Deity’ withdrew and left the ‘human being’ Jesus to His tormentors, who truly carried

out the most shameful work on behalf of My adversary, because Jesus Himself wanted it this way…. For His soul had

offered of its own accord to descend to earth in order to make the sacrifice of atonement for His fallen brothers; it had

offered to take on flesh in order to accept these said immeasurable pains and torments because only a human being was

capable of suffering. And I accepted the sacrifice since it was, after all, made by ‘love’…. which may never be rejected.

And ‘love’ stayed in Him until His death, even if It no longer allowed It’s strength to take effect…. Thus I Myself must

have been in Him too, even if I remained silent at the end so that the act of Salvation could find its culmination: that a

human being allowed Himself to be crucified for His fellow human beings…. that He truly made a sacrifice which I

accepted as an act of atonement for the whole human race…. No ‘divine strength’ alleviated the sacrifice for Him, for

‘Love’ Itself remained quiet, although it had taken complete possession of the human being Jesus....

And this, too, is a mystery you humans are as yet unable to grasp…. The man Jesus had to taste the greatest suffering:

to feel alone and abandoned. And precisely this suffering redeemed the sin which every being had burdened itself with

when it left Me, Who had given them all My love, which they rejected. The human being Jesus had to experience this

suffering, and therefore He spoke the words ‘My God, my God, why have You forsaken me….’ Yet you humans will

never be able to understand the magnitude of the act of Salvation as long as you live on earth. Nevertheless, one day it

will strike you with a sudden, blinding realisation and you will praise and worship Me without end…. For this act of

Salvation applied to all of you, you all may participate in the blessings of the act of Salvation, and as a result of the act

of Salvation the path was opened for all of you to return to Me. AMEN

JESUS CHRIST’S ACT OF SALVATION

The return to Me was guaranteed as a result of My act of Salvation.... One day all souls will be able to stay with Me

again, one day all beings which once had originated from Me will be permeated by My love again, as it was in the

beginning, for with My sacrificial death on the cross I established a bridge from the abyss to the pinnacle, from the

kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of light and beatitude…. My death on the cross paid for the extreme guilt which

separated all beings from Me when they followed My adversary into the abyss….

Until My arrival on earth an unbridgeable gulf existed between people and Myself which they had caused themselves

but which they were no longer able to bridge by themselves since they were too weak, since the burden of sin pushed

them to the ground and My adversary, too, prevented their every attempt to bridge this gulf. And thus I built a bridge by

descending to earth Myself and only then made amends for the immense guilt…. by taking the burden of sin from

people and shouldering it Myself I walked the path to the cross with it….

What was impossible before has now become feasible: that people who are of good will shall follow Me and take the

path of the cross, that they only abide by Me and never exclude Me again, that they want to belong to those for whom I

died on the cross, and that they then find complete forgiveness of their guilt which enables their return to Me again into

the kingdom of light…. I did not forsake people in their adversity, I came to help them, I took abode in a human being’s

shell and accomplished in this human being Jesus the act of Salvation, for I wanted to start a path leading from the abyss

to the pinnacle again….

And My life on earth was a life of love until My death, for people lacked love and therefore I set an example to them,

for only love is redeeming, because love is the law of eternal order and because…. anyone who returns to Me…. has to

change his nature into love in order to unite with Me again, since I Am love Myself…. And thus the kingdom of light

and earth were bridged when I descended to earth Myself. And you all have to cross this bridge in order to reach Me

again, Who was unattainable to you because of your guilt.

But My love is greater than your guilt, and My love sought a way out, it tried to re-establish the connection between you

and Me which was broken by you…. And thus I found a way: My love Itself made amends for the guilt and opened the

path of return to Me. By then a connection had been established from the kingdom of light to earth, because a soul of

light had descended to earth in which I was able to embody Myself; for this soul took on flesh…. the human being Jesus

was born, Who then travelled the path on which all human beings can follow Him, which enables you to enter the

kingdom of light and concludes your return to Me…. My love built this bridge for you, for My love took abode in this

shell and walked the path of the cross for you, that is, it compensated for the immense guilt of your apostasy from Me

which had created the unbridgeable gulf between the kingdom of light and darkness…. My love for you is infinite and

wants to win you back again, My living creations. Yet My justice did not permit Me to accept you again without the

redemption of your guilt. And thus My love has also made amends for the guilt on your behalf …. a human being made

the sacrifice of atonement on your behalf, and I Myself was within this human being….

What was impossible before My crucifixion became achievable through the crucifixion: that you were allowed to

approach Me again, that you would be able to return to your true home again, into the kingdom of light, where you can

be active again in light and strength and freedom as in the beginning. The path to Me was open, you could leave your

guilt behind under the cross, you could hand yourselves over to the love and mercy of Jesus, your Redeemer, and He

would then open the gate to beatitude for you, to the kingdom of light. But even this, your ‘deliverance’, is a matter of

your free will, otherwise every soul would instantly return to the kingdom of light, but in that case My goal to prepare

you as My children would not be achieved…. You have to take the path to the cross of your own free will, in free will

you have to ask for forgiveness of sins, and in free will you have to desire your salvation and approach Me in Jesus

Christ. And it will be given to you…. you will return to Me and be joyfully received by your Father, Who descended to

earth Himself in order to set you free. AMEN

THE RIGHT CONCEPT OF GOD

And this My Spirit will reveal to you, that there is only one God and that this God manifested Himself in Jesus Christ.

Because God is a Spirit, I could not become visible as a limited entity to the beings created by Me, but in Jesus Christ I

became a visible God for all My creatures. Therefore, you must not speak of Jesus Christ and the Father, for I am one with

Him, so that when you speak of Jesus Christ, you speak of Me, your God and Maker, your Father from eternity...

Already the infant Jesus was filled with My Spirit, and already after His birth I manifested Myself in Him in an unusual way,

to make the people around Him realise that My Spirit dwelt in the infant. The man Jesus died on the cross, but His body was

already spiritualised and rose from the dead - for all its substances had united with Me. My Spirit had permeated body and

soul and nothing human was left in Him. That which had arisen from the dead on the third day was I Myself, the Father-Spirit

from eternity. The God, whom the beings desired to see and who had manifested Himself in Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is God,

for I am a Spirit and have become visible to all My beings in the Person of Jesus Christ. And you cannot imagine Me in any

other way than as the Divine Saviour Jesus Christ.

If you want to pray to Me, if you want to make contact with Me, you must pray to Jesus Christ - you must speak with Him,

you must acknowledge Him as your Father from eternity, and then you will also have the right concept of God, which,

however, can never be right if you pray separately to Me as "God" and to Jesus Christ as "God's Son".

In the man Jesus there dwelt a soul, which was My "son", a supremely perfect being created by Me that remained faithful to

Me when the great apostasy of spirits took place. And this "son of God" made it possible for Me to incarnate Myself in a

human body - so that the complete unification of the eternal Father Spirit with Jesus Christ could take place. But subsequently

there were not two separate entities, but only one God, for the Divine Spirit, the First Cause, completely permeated the human

body, thus also spiritualising it.

It was all "Divine Spirit", it was the Spirit that pervades infinity, but manifested itself in a form visible to men, so that they

could form a concept of Me and rejoin Me. For their original guilt of apostasy consisted in the voluntary separation from Me,

because they were unable to see Me.

And thus I provided for them a possibility to rejoin Me of their own free will, by rendering Myself visible to them in Jesus

Christ. You must never separate "Jesus Christ" from Me, for He and I are One and the same; whoever prays to Him, prays to

Me, whoever sees Him, sees Me personally, Who Am, have been from eternity, and shall be forever and ever. AMEN

GOD IS A SPIRIT WHO HAS MANIFESTED HIMSELF IN JESUS

You should not imagine your God and Creator as a strictly limited Being, you should not try to associate Him with a

form, for then your idea would always be wrong, because something defined can never correspond to My nature, which

is utterly perfect, thus infinite. For I Am a spirit Who fills and permeates everything. In My nature I will be eternally

unfathomable for My living creations, for although My living creations were externalised by Me in supreme perfection

they are nevertheless only sparks of love, emanated by the fire of My Eternal Love and externalised as individual beings

who, however, would be unable to behold the eternal source of light and strength if I showed Myself to them in My

full abundance of brilliance, since they would perish if they faced the radiating light….

Yet you need not visualise Me in any other way than as the divine Redeemer Jesus Christ…. In Him I became the

‘visible’ God for you, in Him the eternal, infinite spirit has manifested Itself, in Him you see Me and are able to behold

Him face to face…. Thus I gave Myself a form for you, whom I had externalised from My love and My strength as My

living creations…. The Eternal Spirit Who fills all of infinity permeated this form with light and became a visible God

for you…. And yet I reign and work throughout all of infinity and thus My Being cannot be limited either, I can only

have become a conceivable idea in the form of Jesus Christ for you, who are still finite yourselves, who have not yet

attained the highest perfection, for I have to give to you what corresponds to your state, which is still far from

perfection.

However, I Am and remain also inscrutable in My nature for the spirits of highest perfection, which, however, is a cause

of increased beatitude, because My children constantly strive towards Me, are constantly delighted by Me through My

fulfilling of their desire yet never able to reach Me…. and on the other hand may behold Me from face to face in Jesus

Christ…. This, too, will remain an enigma to you, and only in the state of enlightenment will you begin to comprehend

and yet eternally unable to fathom My nature. To you I appear infinitely far away and yet I Am as close to you as only a

father can get to his child. But this awareness makes you immensely happy, and your love for Me increases constantly

and is also the cause of bliss, because it always meets with fulfilment.

And thus your love for Jesus Christ will blaze ever more ardently, in Whom you have recognised your Father of eternity

and in Whom I bestow unlimited bliss upon you…. For in Him I Am now able to be close to My children, even though I

Am not bound to the form, even though I fill all of infinity with My light and My strength, with My Being, which is and

remains inscrutable. But you, My living creations, shall look for and find Me in Jesus, for I have chosen Him as the

form which received Me; and this once human external form completely spiritualised itself and yet remained visible to

every being which attained the state of maturity of spiritual vision….

Thus you see My eternal spirit when you see Jesus, for He and I are one, you see the Father when you see Jesus,

because I wanted to be visible to you, My created beings, in order to gain all your love. Yet you will never be able to

behold Me in My infinite abundance of strength and light without ceasing to exist…. But I want to be able to create and

work with My children and thus also reveal Myself to them in order to heighten their beatitude…. And I want to

experience their love Myself and therefore will always be close to My children. AMEN

REDEMPTION ONLY THROUGH JESUS CHRIST… SELF-REDEMPTION IS NOT POSSIBLE

You have been redeemed through the death of Jesus Christ, and not a single being in the entire universe is excluded

from this redemption, for He has accomplished His act for all once fallen spirits, He has accomplished it for all people

past, present and future…. But the being itself has to acknowledge it, it consciously has to lay claim on the blessings of

the act of Salvation…. God’s opponent is entitled to the spiritual being which had voluntarily followed him into the

abyss …. It turned to him and away from God of its own free will …. of its own free will it has to turn away from him

again and desire to return to God. However, it would never find the strength to separate itself from him, because its will

had been totally weakened by the adversary …. It would stay separated from God forever if the human being Jesus, in

Whom God had manifested Himself, had not achieved the act of Salvation by means of his crucifixion, through which

he acquired the blessings of a stronger will, which can now increase the fallen spirit’s will and then also enable it to rise

up against the adversary and strive towards God….

The act of Salvation will not force any being to return, but its return is made possible for it, which otherwise could never

have taken place. Yet it always requires free will, otherwise all fallen spirits would have been instantly redeemed and

every work of creation would already be spiritualised …. But the redemption depends on the human being’s free will

who, as a once fallen being, is travelling the path across earth for the purpose of becoming free, if he takes advantage of

Jesus’ act of Salvation and His acquired blessings…. Then his redemption will be certain, then he will return to his

origin as a child of God…. then Jesus Christ will not have died for him in vain…. he can still perfect himself in earthly

life or ascend in the spiritual kingdom and be active in light and strength and freedom for his own happiness. It only

requires your will to be redeemed, for Jesus atoned the guilt on his behalf, Jesus cleared the way for him to the Father,

Jesus opened the gate to the kingdom of light…. But the human being himself has to want that the act of Salvation has

been achieved for him, he has to consciously place himself underneath the cross of Christ, he has to acknowledge Him

as Son of God and Redeemer of the world, in Whom God had manifested Himself in order to be able to become a

‘visible’ God for all His living beings …. Yet in that case one cannot ever speak about ‘Self-Redemption’, even if one’s

own free will is the first condition to attain the blessing of the act of Salvation…. The human being can never free

himself from his great guilt of sin without the help of Jesus Christ, in his weakness of will he will never be able to lift

himself up and detach himself from God’s adversary….

The redemption of all souls is only possible through Jesus Christ, and this is why the man Jesus Christ has suffered the

crucifixion for all fallen spiritual beings and acquired the blessing of a strengthened will, which every being can lay

claim to as soon as it has reached the stage of free will as a human being again. And this exceedingly joyful knowledge

is conveyed to you humans. For now you are informed that you are not hopelessly lost, that there is a path of ascent for

you, back to your Father’s house…. the path to the cross of Christ, which has to be taken without fail but which also

assures you complete deliverance. If, however, you don’t take this path then you will not find redemption either, you

will not be released from your adversary and that means, that you will never be able to enter into the kingdom of light

because your guilt of sin will prevent your entry. You yourselves are unable to free yourselves from this sin, but you can

carry it under the cross, to Jesus Christ, Who shed His blood for your guilt and thereby also bought you back from

God’s adversary. Only, your will has to make conscious use of this blessing, and then your guilt will also be

redeemed…. you will be free beings again as you were in the beginning, and need only perfect yourselves in earthly life,

that is, through loving activity shape your nature into love again…. you need only seek closest unity with God, your

Father of eternity, and your soul will mature and then, as His children, be able to enter the kingdom of light and bliss.

AMEN

CONCLUSION OF EARTHLY PROGRESS ONLY WITH JESUS CHRIST

You have come a long way already but the fact that you are still walking on earth is proof that you have not yet

concluded your path of development… with exception of those who incarnated on earth for the purpose of a spiritual

mission and whose souls thus had previously covered this progress of development and had found admission in the

realm of light… But I speak to you humans who are not yet perfect, who once had deserted Me and had to walk this

long path of development so that you can now, at the human stage, voluntarily take the last test of will, the passing of

which ensures your entry into the realm of light. Hence you are not yet perfect but you have ascended from the deepest

depth to the height, if only by law of compulsion… The depth had to release you because My will had intended this long

path for you which pulled you away from the force of My adversary, or your ascent would have been impossible… But

now he is given his rights once again because you are still his property since you formerly had followed him into the

depths voluntarily and this free will has not yet made the new decision: for him or against Me, Who longs for your

return but will not force you if you willingly want to stay with him.

Thus, at the human stage My adversary once again applies his power by influencing your will but he is unable to force it

as you have to decide of your own accord which Lord you choose. However, I cannot stop him using all his persuasions

to chain you to himself… I cannot stop him from using ploys and to tempt you, only to keep your soul or to regain it if

he has already lost it … You now have to face him voluntarily yourselves and fight against him if you want to free

yourselves from him. And you really need not fear his strength because you have a strong Helper by your side Whom

you only need to ask to win the battle with Him: Jesus Christ, your Redeemer from sin and death… Even though you, as

human being, have already overcome the deepest abyss, even though you, due to My help, have also come considerably

closer to Me during the infinitely long period of development… yet the burden of your original sin due to your desertion

from Me constantly pushes you down again and you would never be able to resist the will of My adversary if Jesus

Christ would not help you, if He would not give you an intensified will which He Himself had acquired for you by His

death on the cross.

My adversary’s power over you is too great that you could resist it with your own strength… But you are guaranteed a

supply of strength by just giving yourselves to Jesus Christ and requesting Him to take upon Himself the guilt of which

you are not yet released and which therefore inescapably chains you to My adversary… Jesus Christ, in Whom I

manifested Myself, will now take on the guilt because with His death on the cross He has paid the purchase price for all

souls to the adversary who now has to release the souls, if they themselves want it… And with His help you can

conclude the path of your earthly life, with His help you can become free of all guilt and enter through the gate into the

realm of light, which otherwise is closed to you, but which will be opened by Jesus Christ for all souls who voluntarily

have decided to take the way to the cross to liberate themselves from the burden of sin. As human being on earth you

only have a short time at your disposal but it is sufficient to completely release yourselves from every form, however,

this always depends on the human being’s attitude towards the Divine Redeemer Jesus Christ… because your former sin

consisted of your rejection of Me and in the resistance of My strength of love… In Jesus Christ, however, you shall

know and acknowledge Me Myself, then you will also consciously accept My strength of love again and then nothing

stands in the way of your unity with Me… Then the infinite long walk through the creations of earth and as earthly

human being has led to the right goal… it resulted in your liberation and you are once again candidates for My kingdom

which will admit you and offer you blessings as it was in the beginning. AMEN

‘AND THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH (John 1:14)’

‘And the Word was made flesh and lived among us…’ I Myself, the eternal Word, came to earth and became flesh… It

was an act of overwhelming love and mercy that had moved Me to make contact with the human beings who had

distanced themselves from Me to a point that they were no longer able to hear My voice, that they could no longer hear

My Word within themselves, and who did not have a relationship with the Word of eternity any more.… They had

caused this vast distance from Me themselves, and they would never have been able to bridge this distance on their own,

they would never have been able to hear My Word again such as it was in the beginning when I could communicate

with all My living creations through the Word… For this reason My love has bridged the vast distance Itself.... I Myself

came to earth and became flesh and then tried to get in touch with My living creations in order to speak to them again

and to build a bridge for them which would lead them back to Me into the kingdom of light and bliss…

I Am the eternal Word Myself but I could not have spoken directly to any human being from above without placing

those who once had originated from Me as free living creations into a state of compulsion. They had to cross the bridge

to Me voluntarily and I could only achieve that by means of My Word which, however, should not sound extraordinary

but like the spoken word between human beings. And for this reason I became flesh... I took abode in the human cover

of Jesus and spoke to people through Him… But it was My Word which now was spoken to them, and through this

Word I was able to show people the way. I was able to instruct them and tell them My will, I was able to reveal the

Gospel to them, the divine teaching of love, which should once again change their souls to a state which would enable

every person to hear My Word within himself if this was his sincere will… But first humanity had to be released from

sin and death. The former guilt of sin, caused by the apostasy from Me, first had to be redeemed, so that the subsequent

bond with Me could be crowned by the ‘pouring out of My spirit’… so that the human being himself could hear My

voice within himself again as it was in the beginning…

‘And the Word was made flesh and lived amongst us….’ Only few people understand the meaning of these words; the

eternal Word came to earth Itself because humanity was in greatest difficulty, it was not aware of its wretched condition,

of its lack of light, of the spiritual darkness in which it lived … It was completely separate from Me and did nothing to

reduce its vast distance from Me. The only way to help people was by means of instructions which corresponded to the

truth… They had to be informed of their God and Creator’s will, and this will had to be conveyed to them by Myself… I

had to speak to them Myself and could only do so through a human being.... Thus I embodied Myself in this human

being, and only in this manner was it possible to instruct people truthfully, to draw their attention to their wrong way of

life, to inform them of My will and exemplify the kind of life they should lead themselves in order to escape their

spiritual darkness, in order to walk the path I showed them first so that they could attain eternal life again. For they

were influenced by My adversary who continuously provoked them into leading a life without love which subsequently

made and kept them weak and they were not able to contribute anything towards their ascent.

I Myself provided them with the evidence that love results in strength. I healed the sick and carried out other miracles

which only the strength of love could accomplish…. I also informed them about the consequences of a heartless way of

life… for I first had to explain to people why they were experiencing physical and spiritual hardship… I had to inform

them that their state as human beings could not be considered a happy one and what they therefore should do to attain

beatitude... And they had to hear all of this from the mouth of God... They had to be able to hear My Word, and thus

the Word Itself came down to earth and became flesh… In the original state the Word sounded within every being and

was the cause of inconceivable bliss… And the beings abandoned this blissfulness themselves by voluntarily distancing

themselves from Me and thus could not hear My Word any longer, because this Word was a direct emanation of love on

My part which they then rejected.

Humanity’s excessive hardship on earth prompted My love and mercy to draw nearer to them and to confront them in

Word despite their resistance … And anyone who had ignited just a tiny spark of love within himself recognised Me

and accepted My Word… He also recognised the Deity in Me and followed Me... But by and large people just saw the

human being in Me and therefore valued My Word simply as that of a human being…. I was amongst them and they did

not recognise Me… Nevertheless, I was able to proclaim the Gospel of love, to repeatedly impart the divine teaching of

love to people and to educate My apostles Myself and then send them into the world with the task of proclaiming My

Gospel and bearing witness to Me…

The ‘Word Itself’ had come to earth, and It was made flesh for the benefit of humanity... And every time My Word is

spoken, My infinite love and mercy bows down towards humanity and emits Its love into those human hearts who

willingly accept My Word, who listen to it and recognise it as their Father’s voice and who are grateful for this great gift

of grace… For I Myself Am the eternal Word, and anyone who listens to Me enters into closest contact with Me, and he

will indeed achieve his last goal on this earth, he will find complete unification with Me, his God and Father, to Whom

RESURRECTION OF JESUS

My body was resurrected on the third day. And even if it seems unbelievable to humanity, because there is no proof of

it, so it should be told again and again to mankind through My Spirit that I, in truth, resurrected from the dead - for,

through My Redemption-Work, I overcame death, which My opponent brought to the world through his fall into the

abyss.

With My Resurrection, I proved to you at the same time that death does not exist for the spiritualised being: that

therefore the "back-development" to the ur-being - that will be reached through a life of Love, as I have shown it to

humanity - excludes also every state of death, every weakness and feebleness, and the soul, as soon as this change has

been achieved during the life on Earth, can now enter into eternal life.

Death has been conquered through My Sacrifice on the cross because the ur-guilt was paid for and the being had again

the possibility of changing back to its ur-being that secures for it an eternal life. I wanted to prove to you that the body's

flesh too can be spiritualised. Therefore, the body does not need to fear death it mankind could succeed in the

spiritualization of its body while still on Earth.

I MYSELF, as the human being Jesus, have spiritualised through My Love all immature substances of My body I

brought them to ripeness; Love has gentled all the non- spiritual in ME and caused it to be united with My soul, so that

body and soul could join with the eternal God-Spirit in Me, and therefore the complete amalgamation with it could take

place.

A complete spiritualised being cannot be vanquished by death, for death is a condition of impotence; but a spiritualised

being is Light and Force in abundance and is free of every bondage. The occurrence of My Resurrection was also visible

to men because they found My tomb empty. That the unbelievers tried to convince people I had been taken away was

understandable, but also that they could not prove- And My Resurrection will always be accepted as Truth only by

believers - those people that are already intimately united with ME through Love, or through their good will, to walk

virtuously in the sight of My eyes. That My Resurrection has indeed taken place is true, because only with this were the

promises fulfilled which had been given to humanity through Seers and Prophets.

My Resurrection was a great defeat for My opponent, to whom I proved that Love is stronger than hate - that he would

not hold his followers eternally in the condition of death because I MYSELF overcame death and therefore could also

give life to each one who acknowledges My Redemption-Work and lays claim to the Mercy gained on the cross.

My Resurrection was a defeat for My opponent, and there- fore he tries to irritate humanity and endeavours to cast doubt

on it. But he cannot hinder the Resurrection of all those that follow ME, who believe in ME, and to whom I can give

eternal life as I promised them. And the number of his adherents will reduce steadily, because again and again human

beings will resurrect to eternal life, because I have overcome death - and he can not eternally burden a being whose will

is to return to ME and who flees under My cross to escape the power of My adversary. For this being, death is

overcome, and the Resurrection to life is assured to it.

My disciples also did not want to believe in My Resurrection from the dead, in spite of the fact that I had promised it

beforehand. But I strengthened their faith, and they recognized ME when I came to them. Therefore, they had proof that

I had overcome death; they should proclaim ME in complete conviction; they should mention My death on the cross and

also My Resurrection.

This knowledge was to be heard by those men who should believe in ME and who should take the way to the cross,

because then could they be redeemed by carrying their guilt to ME, under the cross. But this, My greatest Redemption-

Work, would have been also very soon forgotten if My Spirit could not have acted again and again in those people who

had devoted themselves entirely to ME, and who - as already redeemed - I could replenish with My Spirit, that

instructed them from inside, that gave them the knowledge about the Redemption-Work of Jesus Christ.

For everything that people received as Tradition did not remain long in the Truth. Where human reason alone was active

many misconceptions grew - under the guise of "Tradition" - and therefore there was no further guarantee for pure

Truth.

But where My Spirit could work in man, the Truth was al- ways apparent, and with it as well, the knowledge about My

suffering and death on the cross and My Resurrection; because this knowledge is absolutely necessary if faith in it shall

replenish people. And My Spirit will always be active in that man who will devote himself to ME in order to receive the

66

pure Truth.

People will again and again hear the message and receive the right enlightenment, to convince mankind of My

Resurrection and that I overcame death, and that for you death is no longer necessary as long as you are by My side - if

you want it that I died for you, if you believe from the bottom of your heart in ME and in My Redemption-Work, that I

MYSELF accomplished in the man Jesus.

I am resurrected from the dead, and so also will you be after the death of your body, to eternal life. You will not be

afraid of death anymore, as soon as you are free from your soul's enemy, of My opponent - as you let yourselves be

redeemed by MYSELF. For then there is no more death for you; then you will live in and with ME, and this life you will

never lose in Eternity. AMEN

CHRIST'S ASCENSION

My mission on Earth was accomplished when I ascended to Heaven. I had redeemed the world from sin and death. I was

resurrected and appeared to My disciples to strengthen them for their way to announce the Gospel. I MYSELF was

replenished by Light and Force and could then leave the Earth to return to My realm from where I came. - in the realm

of Light and Bliss.

Because My body was transfigured, it was My spiritual garment that was not bound any longer by the laws of nature,

but the body could then remain where My Will wanted it, because My body now was Spirit as the SPIRIT of the

FATHER since Eternity and was therefore also not bound to a form, but filled the universe and also MYSELF - the man

Jesus, who had received in HIMSELF the ETERNAL DIVINITY, to give the latter a human cover that Divinity needed

as it wanted to live amongst mankind. The cover was still dependent on the laws of nature, and therefore had to reach a

high grade of maturity before being able to receive in itself the eternal GODHEAD.

My mission was now ended, and testimony should be given also for this act of ascension to Heaven, because this was

the crowning achievement; this was the proof for humanity that I had accomplished a Work of Trans-formation on

MYSELF - that was to be proven visibly - for I disregarded all laws of nature when I ascended to Heaven, enveloping

MYSELF with all Glory and yet clearly visible to My disciples.

I gave them the force to behold ME; otherwise they would indeed have disintegrated. Only those disciples could see ME

who were intimately connected with ME through their love and who therefore already possessed the degree of maturity

that allowed such a sight. Several souls return from Earth in the same state into the realm of Light, and it is also possible

for those to see ME in all My Splendour and Magnificence, because their degree of maturity admits a spiritual vision

since for them no limitation exists any longer. They will be clothed in Glory as they will also be allowed to see God face

to face and find themselves in their ur-element - in Love - which at the same time is Light and Force. That is their

spiritual garment, that each soul can wear as soon as it leaves the Earth-life and enters, matured, into the realm of the

beyond.

And this you must believe, and you must not doubt the Love and Might of you, God and FATHER, WHO will indeed

prepare all Blissfulness for you, which for you is unimaginable as long as you still live on this Earth. But I have given

you an example of what man can accomplish through a life of disinterested love, and what his lot will be if he always

lived on Earth according to My Will. If his conduct as a consequence of this example has produced a change in his being

towards Love that is then equal to My Ur-being, then he will also radiate in all Brightness and in all Magnificence - and

will be visible to all those who are at the Same level of maturity - those who are now united with MYSELF, WHO is a

being that radiates Light and Force and will be so until Eternity.

The occurrence of My ascension really took place and in Truth - the man Jesus with it gave the last proof of His Divinity

on Earth as HE left it in a radiant flood of Light and returned to the realm from which His soul had once come - the

realm of Light. HE was with God and returned to Him, WHOSE child HE was and continued to be, WITH WHOM HE

was wholly united. And therefore the ascension was the last proof that I was not from this Earth, but descended from the

kingdom of Light and Splendour, which again be- came My goal. And this should also be and should remain eternally

your goal, for you too should return to the Light; you should, through unification with Me, accept My Light and My

Force in all fullness, and therefore also be able to rise to Heaven, to your true home. AMEN

‘MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAVE YOU FORSAKEN ME?’ (Matthew 27:46)

My suffering and death on the cross was inexpressibly painful, and any description of it would be only a weak

comparison with what I have endured, because I foresaw every phase of My Redemption-Work. I knew in what My last

task consisted and I had no solace to lighten My torments, for in these last hours I had to endure as "Man only".

Indeed I possessed all force because the Love-Force of God, of My FATHER since Eternity, flowed through ME until

the end. But I Myself no longer admitted by My Will the Force of Love - I did no longer with its help let the tortures be

diminished or abolished, because otherwise the Redemption-Work - that asks for the fullest amount of suffering to pay

for the immense guilt of man's ur-sin - would not have been fully valued.

And the Divinity in ME knew about My Will and consented to let ME act in this way. The Godhead Itself drew back

because I so wished it, in order to obtain the highest grade in My Love for humanity. This Love was indeed only

dedicated to My FATHER, for WHOM I longed in the greatest distress, in the greatest suffering, and especially so in the

last minutes of My earthly life. And this longing grew because I no longer laid claim to His interference, to his Love-

Force.

And in this longing for HIM, for My FATHER of Eternity, I called out the words: "My God, My God, why have You

forsaken Me?" I Myself wanted to bring, the work of Mercy for sinful humanity, to an end, as a human being, because it

was the greatest Love that I could show to My FATHER: that I let Myself be nailed to the cross instead of HIM, for HE

Himself had come to Earth and taken abode in ME. HE Himself wanted to bring the Redemption-Work for His children,

but as "'God" HE could not suffer. And so instead of HIM I took on all the suffering and tortures and endured them until

the end.

As often and as easily understandable as I try to explain this to you, you never will quite grasp it until you are received

by the spiritual realm, the realm of Light and Bliss. And always there is only the simplest explanation, the words: "THE

FATHER and I are ONE." We were already completely united, and therefore I could say: "It is accomplished!" The

human being Jesus gave his life; HE suffered as man an unspeakable, painful death. But HE Himself has united with the

eternal DEITY, for until the end Love was in the man Jesus; otherwise, HE would not have said: "FATHER, forgive

them; for they know not what they do."

"Love" remained without interference. It was necessary to bring the Redemption-Work to a conclusion, so that the death

could then be acknowledged by all those who surrounded Him; so that His body could be laid to rest in the grave from

which HE rose from the dead on the third day. Every evidence of the Spirit of God would have always made people

doubt the death of Jesus on the cross, be- cause they would have recognized His union with ME, and the faith in the

Redemption-Work would have been the forced consequence - but faith, however, should be always a free decision of

will.

This also you may not yet be able to understand rightly, but as soon as you unite your spirit with the SPIRIT of the

FATHER of Eternity, it will become clearer within you, and you will understand My Word too that always seeks to

enlighten you; thus, according to your grade of maturity - or love of your soul - you are then able to understand. You

should be informed especially about the Redemption-Work in pure Truth, and should receive as a gift the fullest

understanding of it so that you can comprehend the greatness of My Love that came down to Earth for you, for all

mankind's sin-guilt, and has fulfilled the Redemption-Work - to open up again the path to the FATHER; to expiate your

great guilt of sin, because it was that which blocked the path into the HOUSE of the FATHER in Eternity. AMEN

GOD AND JESUS ARE ONE…. GOD BECOMES MAN…. DEIFICATION OF JESUS

The fact that the spiritual condition of humanity grows darker and darker results from the inability of men to understand

the state of "becoming One" of God with Jesus; therefore neither does humanity have the right understanding of the

"becoming man" of God. Men came to the wrong thinking through the teaching of the "three persons" of the Godhead. It

has to be repeated over and over again that the eternal Divinity cannot be thought of as a person; that therefore there is

no other conception of it as of a force, which fills the whole infinity. This force cannot be limited, neither can it be

thought of as a "form" - though it can radiate entirely through a form.

The occurrence of total radiation through divine Force took place with the man Jesus, - He was replenished with Love,

and Love is the primal-substance of the eternal Deity that is continuously emitted into infinity, that creates and maintains

everything. This divine Love-Force radiated through the human form Of Jesus and manifested Itself in Him. The primal-

Being of God took residence in the man Jesus, and thus became God "Man". And because Jesus was totally replenished

by the primal-Substance of God, He became "God" - for also the human exterior cover could, as completely spiritualised

after His death on the cross, unify with God, so that Jesus then became the visible Deity, and man cannot imagine God

in any other form but in Jesus. However, it can never be a question of "two persons".

The man Jesus reached His aim on Earth, the total Deification that all created beings should reach. - For God wanted to

create "images" whose ultimate perfection must nevertheless be gained through the free will of the being. The man Jesus

did not only reach this deification through a life of Love, but also blotted out the sin-guilt of mankind through His Work

of Redemption. - He used God's Love- Force, because without it He would not have been able to endure the awful pain

and the death on the cross. This Love-Force was the primal-element of God, and so it was God Himself in all abundance

in the man Jesus that accomplished the Redemption-Work.

If you, however, speak of a "God manifested in three persons", then you have an erroneous concept, for the eternal Deity

cannot be personified. It is only Love, and this Love manifested Itself in Jesus; the eternal God-Spirit acted in Jesus - He

can be imagined for all beings only in Jesus. As the beings once created by God apostate from Him because they could

not see Him, He became in Jesus a visible God.

But Jesus is not a second being that can be thought of as separate from God. He is GOD! Since God is Love- Force

which radiated through a totally spiritualised form, -and this form was nothing but divine primal-substance which can

only be pictured by those beings who have already spiritualised themselves in order to be able to see spiritually.

When one speaks of FATHER, SON, and the HOLY SPIRIT, that indeed is valid as a description of the Being of God -

if FATHER is acknowledged as Love, SON as Wisdom, and the HOLY SPIRIT as Force - as Will or Might of God. For

God's Seeing is Love, Wisdom, and Might. But the goal that was set by God Himself with the Creation of the beings -

the deification of these beings in free-will - explains, too, the "becoming man" of God in Jesus - the visible Deity in

Jesus. But the "three persons" deity does not at all admit a right explanation, i.e., an explanation in accordance with the

Truth. Mankind created concepts for itself that hinder therefore their spiritual maturing process, because only One God

can be called on; three different Gods shall not be prayed to, because God Himself wants to be recognized in Jesus, and

therefore He can only be worshipped in Jesus.

And He demands this acknowledgment by all men, because the acknowledgment was once denied Him. At the same

time the Redemption-Work must also be recognized, for without Jesus Christ no man can find forgiveness of his

primordial-guilt; therefore man has to confess himself to Him; he has to believe that God Himself had compassion for

humanity and has accomplished in Jesus the Work of Redemption. AMEN

CONCERNING THE QUESTION: INCARNATION OF JESUS

My earthly mission was concluded by My death on the cross, by My ascension to heaven…. The complete deification of

My soul, which had once come forth from the Father’s love as a created being, had occurred. This should be achieved

by every original spirit some day in order to be able to work and create with the Father, completely perfected in His

image… Additionally, however, My original soul had the particular task to enable the Father … the eternal love Itself…

to manifest Himself on earth as a human being, i.e. the ‘Eternal Love’ manifested Itself in My external cover of the man

Jesus, and thus the Father became a visible God to all His formerly created beings who have achieved that particular

degree of perfection which results in spiritual vision.

The human manifestation of God in Jesus is such a momentous problem that you will not be able to comprehend it while

you are still on earth… It was and is an act which is closely connected with the beings’ apostasy from their God and

Creator... But one thing is certain: My Jesus-soul is so closely united with the Father that He and I are one and that I

cannot be considered to be separate from the Father any longer, and that I always Am and will be the visible God in all

eternity… I can indeed descend to earth again in My Divinity, thus I can appear as Jesus to any person who is most

intimately connected with Me so that he can recognise Me as his Saviour and Redeemer, but only for a brief time in a

visible state when certain events justify such appearances… Because I have promised you My presence and can also

prove this presence visibly... And similarly will I appear at the end in the clouds, i.e. undeniably in My strength and

glory but veiled, because even My Own cannot bear to see Me in the brightest light…

But for My Jesus-soul to incarnate again or to have incarnated on this earth as a human being after My crucifixion is

impossible, because it is completely merged with the Father’s eternal spirit and because an incarnation of the Jesus-soul

would be synonymous with an incarnation of God in a human being… Every person should indeed form a union with

God by means of love, and this is every human being’s last goal, but this is not an incarnation of My Jesus-soul, as you

would understand it, in the sense that Jesus will live on earth again as human being. My Jesus-soul is and remains

eternally unified with God and reigns and works in the spiritual kingdom, in the kingdom of light, visible to all beings of

light from face to face. A conception in the flesh would therefore be a repeated human manifestation of God, for which

there is no justification…

Eminent and exalted beings of light will time and again descend to earth for the purpose of a mission, who want to

achieve the last degree of their perfection by taking the test of volition on this earth…. And these persons can also be

usually recognised by their remarkable deeds and a remarkably difficult earthly life. Hence you need to exercise great

caution when you hear about an incarnation of Jesus, because although eminent and exalted beings of light incarnate on

this earth they themselves will be without all knowledge of their origin, apart from the one who will announce My

coming... He will know who he is when the time has come to start his mission on earth. But you will often be deceived

by My adversary’s actions if you assume this or that embodiment in a person… even when he lives his life in total

accordance with My will. Because the knowledge of his incarnated spirit does not help your perfection and can only

ever lead to wrong conclusions. It cannot ever result in your spiritual advantage because you would still be subject to a

certain amount of compulsory faith, whereas you should make your choice during your earthly life in complete freedom.

AMEN

THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S HUMAN MANIFESTATION

Time and again you receive information about Jesus Christ, the Son of God and Saviour of the world… about God’s

human manifestation in Jesus… Precisely this manifestation of the greatest and most perfect spirit God... of the Father,

out of Whom everything emerged… in the human being Jesus cannot be explained to you often enough, in order that

you will not become subject to erroneous belief and understand where the spirit of God is expressing Itself and where

the adversary intervenes to infiltrate the pure truth with error. Jesus’ soul of light... one of the original spirits brought

forth by Eternal Love … had embodied Itself on earth for the purpose of an exalted mission: to offer the Father His

temporal cover as an abode and to redeem the immense original sin of the former apostasy from God, which countless

beings had burdened themselves with. Jesus’ soul had voluntarily offered to bring about the act of atonement on earth,

and because It was moved by greater than great love for its fallen brothers and because God will never refute love, He

allowed it to happen… Because only love was able to make such a sacrifice... The man Jesus then developed this love

on earth to its fullest… which means that Eternal Love Itself took complete possession of Jesus’ physical shell… that

therefore God Himself took abode in the man Jesus and was able to do so, because the human being Jesus was pure and

without sin and due to love was in constant contact with His eternal Father…

You humans will never be able to properly understand this mystery as long as you live on earth... But God’s human

manifestation in Jesus can only be explained such that God is love in His fundamental substance and that He completely

permeated the man Jesus, thus everything in Him became love. And therefore love has accomplished the act of

Salvation, because only love gave the external human form the necessary strength for its suffering, to endure until the

end, until the most painful death on the cross… And when the act of Salvation was accomplished the being, which

had once been ‘created’ by God, also achieved Its highest perfection, it had deified Itself, It had completely become one

with the Father, from Whom It had originated… Jesus had become ‘God’ ... just as God had been ‘human’ in Jesus

before, until the greatest act of mercy on earth had been accomplished…

But now Jesus is and remains God, Who has become and Who will eternally remain a visible God for all created

beings… Anyone who does not acknowledge or declare this complete deification of Jesus’ becoming one with God,

does not yet know the truth which originated from God, the eternal truth. Because time and again the Eternal Truth

teaches people through His spirit of this greatest mystery, since it is necessary for people to recognise and acknowledge

God Himself in Jesus, because the salvation of a human being will not take place until he… as a formerly fallen original

spirit who did not want to acknowledge God… has acknowledged Him of his own accord and wants to return to Him…

And therefore any kind of teaching which portrays Jesus as a separate entity will be untrue, in spite of having the highest

aspirations …Because He is no longer outside of God, He is God Himself...

The eternal Deity may not be personified, It is the greatest spirit of eternity Who permeates everything, but Who has

chosen a form for Himself in order to be visible to His created beings... And this form is Jesus, consequently Jesus is

God, but not a second being which leads the people to God... God’s adversary constantly tries to stop people receiving a

bright light, and thus he especially tries to invalidate the act of Salvation and God’s human manifestation, he attempts to

confuse the concepts because he wants to prevent God’s recognition and acknowledgment, which takes his followers

from him… And he will constantly strive to appear in the guise of an angel of light spreading deceitful teachings

amongst people which, however, shall be corrected again and again by the Eternal Truth.

Jesus Christ’s act of Salvation and God’s human manifestation in Jesus cannot be explained to people often enough; but

the person himself also has to be willing to receive the pure truth, then he need not fear of falling prey to error. He will

recognise it as such, he will internally refuse to accept erroneous teachings and not believe those whom the adversary

has gained as an instrument for himself but who can be recognised by everyone who wants to live in truth and therefore

asks God Himself, as the eternal truth. There will be a lot of deception during the last period before the end, but God

will know how to direct the outcome of it because He knows the hearts of those who are willing, who do not want to fall

prey to the adversary’s doings… and He will indeed guide them into truth. AMEN

MESSIAH, SAVIOUR OF MANKIND

From luminous heights I had descended to earth, to carry My Light into the darkness, because the sun of the spirit had

set, no light-ray illumined the dark night, and mankind found itself in greatest need. And those who had recognised their

plight were calling to Me for help, they were calling for a Saviour who should deliver them, for these few were not

entirely captive to My adversary yet, they lived a life of love and had not yet lost their link with Me, and therefore

turned to me in their need, that I might send them a Saviour.

And thus I sent My Son to earth. A spirit of Light, who had gone forth out of My love, and who had remained faithful to

Me when the host of primordial spirits had apostatised from Me. He had offered Himself for a deed that was singular,

but nevertheless brought redemption to all mankind. He descended to earth and took abode in mankind's midst. He

began His earth walk like any other man, but had taken a great Mission upon Himself: To prepare Himself, i.e. His

earthly mantle, so that it could serve Me as an abode, because I desired to attend to My beings Myself, I wanted Myself

to expiate their great sin, which they had loaded upon themselves voluntarily by their falling away from Me.

This Light-being, a child of My love, offered to carry out this work of salvation, and as a soul, He took abode in the

infant Jesus, and began His earth-walk which was so uncommonly sorrowful because His earthly body was also to be

spiritualised, to serve Myself, love eternal, for a dwelling.

At His birth, the world around Him could already recognise that this Child was the promised Messiah, because His

intense Light would break through from time to time and manifest itself in the excessively wise utterances of the infant.

But His soul was signally harassed by My adversary, who incited every spirit particle still pertaining to him to take

possession of His body, so that by this influence the body became subject to powerful temptations, which the Man Jesus

then had to combat in order not to succumb. The Love in Him gave Him the power for it, but He had to contend

uncommonly, and His entire earth-walk was truly a way of the cross, which He had, nevertheless, taken upon Himself

voluntarily, out of love for His fallen brethren, with whose great plight He was acquainted.

His life was, indeed, one of constant service out of love, and as I am Myself Love, I could always be in Him, and

provide Him with the power to fulfil His mission: To perform the work of atonement for the sum of mankind's great

debt of sin. He was My Son, He was a soul of Light Which found the complete union with Me, who accomplished the

work of deification, the aim of every being created by Me: from a being to become My child, to enter wholly upon My

will out of free will, and thereby to attain tot he highest degree of perfection.

Jesus was an unfallen primordial spirit, but this deification had nevertheless to take place in free will, which the walk

through earth-life - a walk through the depths, brought about. And, therefore, as His soul had to be exposed to every

harassment by My adversary, because the latter also wanted to possess this soul, whose fall he had not been able to bring

about. And since the earth was his kingdom, the kingdom of the fallen spirit, Jesus' soul had been exposed also to all

luciferic instincts and afflictions, and the Man Jesus had to resist them, He had, in the face of all temptations, to hold to

Me as His Father from eternity. He had to make Me His comrade-in-arms, and He did it by constantly claiming My

Love and also, with His working from love, receiving it, because Love does not deny itself, and the great love of the

Man Jesus drew Me mightily. And by force of this love - since love in itself is power - He was able to put up a

resistance, and carry through the work of Salvation to the end.

A Saviour had of a truth been sent mankind; the Messiah had come, as had been promised long before. The Light had

descended to earth, to illumine the hearts of those men who accepted Him, who recognised Me in Him - the One who

had wanted to bring them salvation from sin and death. And the light broke through the darkness. here arose in Jesus a

fighter for My adversary Who conquered him, because His weapon was love, against which My adversary fights in vain;

he shall always succumb to Love, for I Myself am Love, and truly, I am more powerful than he who once had

precipitated you to the depths. AMEN

KNOWLEDGE OF THE REDEMPTION-WORK OF JESUS CHRIST

The greatest mystery - My "becoming man" in Jesus Christ for the purpose of redeeming all the once fallen spirituals

and cancelling the immeasurable ur-guilt of apostasy of the beings from ME - will remain a secret to mankind as long as

they are not taught in all Truth about it, and until they desire to receive this Truth.

You humans do not want to accept the fact that you live in deepest darkness - the precise consequence of the ur- guilt

which must be cancelled before the Light dawns on you. But then, irrevocably, you will understand everything and you

will no longer doubt. The pure Truth can only reach you from the eternal Truth itself which will also teach you; for this

is the Light from eternity which desires also that its creatures walk in the Light.

But it is your free will that decides whether you accept the Truth. And you are capable of deciding if you are instructed

according to the Truth. Only one thing is necessary: that you live in Love. Because Love is the fire that radiates the

Light of Wisdom. A Love-spark has been placed in you as a divine share that stays in connection with ME as the eternal

Love; and as soon as you can kindle this spark in yourself in free will, it will strive to join the Ur-Light, from which is

reflected the Light in the form of profoundest Wisdom. You will become enlightened; the Light of knowledge will

illuminate you, your thinking is right, and it moves into the Truth.

And this Truth I will give you so that you can recognize your task on Earth and fulfil it. And you should also know

about your ur-guilt, and about My plan of Salvation since eternity. You should realize that the most important thing is

the Redemption-Work through Jesus Christ, My "becoming man" in HIM. And, above all, you should be instructed in

the knowledge that you cannot by-pass Jesus Christ if you wish to ever gain eternal life. HE came to Earth to preach the

Gospel of Love to mankind; to give in His living an example for the right way of life that leads to eternal life.

But people, burdened with the ur-sin, could never have reached their goal as long as this ur-sin was not taken away from

them. And this was done by Jesus Christ through His Redemption-Work and His Death on the cross, for HE did the

atonement for this immense guilt; and He as man could only do it, because I MYSELF was in HIM - because My Ur-

Substance is Love. Love is not only a quality of My being, but I am Love itself. You will not be able to grasp this as

long as you live on Earth, but only this explanation can make you understand My "becoming man" in Jesus so that also

the integration into one being is no longer doubtful to you.

My being cannot be personified, but in Jesus My all- encompassing Spirit was formed into something imaginable to

you. The restless amalgamation of Jesus with MYSELF took place only when the Redemption-Work was accomplished,

which explains why Jesus, while He walked the Earth, sometimes spoke of the FATHER as outside of himself - though

also again and again pointing towards the unification. Mankind, during the time of His walk on Earth, was in a state of

darkness. And a Light - i.e., a clear cognisance of the Redemption-Work - could shine only for those few who

consciously stood under the cross; who desired to be redeemed, and who also offered themselves in free-will to Jesus

and begged for forgiveness of their sin-guilt.

Mankind remained therefore in spiritual darkness; and this Work of Redemption - the greatest Mercy-act of God's Love

- is still unnoted. That notion of Jesus as 'only a man will continue, but every mission of HIM will be denied. Therefore,

mankind, burdened with the ur-guilt, is left with its darkened spirit and does not perceive the light when it radiates

occasionally, because people close their eyes in order not to see it. But the Light from above cannot be extinguished,

because always there will be people to kindle within themselves the spiritual spark, and they will be able to accept direct

instructions from their FATHER-SPIRIT in Eternity.

And this Light will grow stronger; it will drive away the darkness entirely when My Will considers the time has come.

For you face the end of a Redemption-period, and when a new one will begin in which there will be a brighter light.

Because the One that brought the darkness into the world will be banished for a long time, and mankind will accept in

the future being redeemed by Jesus Christ, and having the ur-guilt removed from them. The knowledge about Jesus

Christ and His Redemption- Work, about My "becoming man" within HIM, is of such immeasurable significance that I

will do all I can to let men share in it; but it must be left to their free will whether they accept it and go then the path to

the cross - if they will hand over to THE ONE their ur-guilt, to, THE ONLY ONE Who can free them of it, and Who

will do it when He is asked for it. For HE died on the cross for the ur-guilt of humanity. He expiated the great guilt, and

in this way the Justice of God was satisfied. Because the Love of God had Mercy for those who had once fallen away

from HIM. Love Itself offered the Sacrifice - GOD in JESUS redeemed humanity from sin and opened again the path

into the realm of Light and Bliss. AMEN

JESUS SUFFERED IMMEASURABLY

Again and again you should think about how the man Jesus suffered for you, for His Love wanted to help you to be free

from the fetters of Satan. HE took on all your guilt, and suffered superhuman afflictions as atonement for this guilt, and

finally paid for your guilt with the most dreadful death on the cross.

And though you are reminded again and again of the magnitude of His Sacrifice and the extent of His suffering, it is not

possible for you to even feel this pain. However, you should remember it often, so as to be able to comprehend His

immense Love for you that moved HIM to His Redemption-Work.

His soul was clean and without blemish. It came from the highest spheres of Light into the dark sinful world; it came to

mankind that had erred through the ancient apostasy from God and that had also continued sinfully through its earthly

life under the influence of My opponent who drove it relentlessly to loveless ness; for they could not resist him in their

weakness due to the burden of the ur-guilt. People were in dense darkness and so could not recognize the enemy of their

souls; they were in a state of the greatest spiritual distress and could never have liberated themselves with their own

force.

And Jesus had Mercy with this humanity - they were His fallen brethren, who would have been eternally separated from

the FATHER, and therefore HE wanted to bring them help and show them the way that would bring them back to the

HOUSE of their FATHER. Jesus offered Himself voluntarily to an Expiation-Work that cannot be measured by you. HE

suffered physically, and in His soul. What torture could be done to HIM - in order to inflict pain and suffering - was

done, by people who were followers of the opponent, who wanted to hinder the Redemption-Work with all his force.

But what the soul had to bear in the grasp of the prince of darkness, exposed to his servants and helpmates - that is

inconceivable to you humans, because it came from a divine, lightful sphere and descended into hell, into the sphere of

God's opponent, where it was dark. The soul had to endure immeasurable tortures, because all sinfulness and darkness

offended it painfully; because all the un-spiritual clung to the soul and tried to pull it further down into the bottomless

abyss.

But the soul resisted, and used the Force out of God - for Jesus' soul was filled with Love, and this Love was the Force

that enabled it to accomplish the Redemption-Work. - Jesus saw the unhappy situation of humanity on Earth. HE saw

their weakness and their blindness and with His Love HE challenged His opponent, who had humanity under his sway,

who had pushed them into unhappiness and hindered them from finding a way out of it. Jesus countered his hate and

wickedness with His Love. And this Love was stronger than the hate, and overcame the opponent. Love suffered Itself

for the fellow-men, and Love bought men freedom from their bondage by His death on the cross.

The price has been very high. Jesus gave His last for the sin-guilt of mankind. HE sacrificed HIMSELF. He proved to

the opponent that Love is stronger than hate; that Love can accomplish all, and that it even does not fear death when

through it, the prisoners can be set free - when it wants to guide the dead back to life again, and wrench the fettered-ones

from their prison-guard. No pain or torture was too great for the man Jesus to abandon His Redemption-Work. His

compassion for sinful mankind was so deep that HE recoiled from nothing, that HE faced His death willingly and

obediently, and before His death suffered superhuman pains for the sins of man. And when you think of it, you must

strive with intense Love toward HIM; you must hasten under the cross in order to belong to those for whom the man

Jesus has shed His blood.

You must be so penetrated by the force of His Love that you return it from your deepest heart and devote yourself to

HIM fully and sincerely, to be and to remain His in all eternity. You cannot hold His suffering and death before your

eyes too often, for in this way you will always draw nearer to HIM - when you are filled with the thought that all the

suffering that HE met actually was yours to bear in order to expiate the great guilt from which HE redeemed you. This

was only be done through the LOVE within HIM. And this LOVE was GOD HIMSELF that was flowing completely

through the man Jesus and gave him the Force to accomplish the Redemption-Work and to over-come the opponent,

because Love is the Force that even God's opponent had to submit to; so that he had to desist from his hold on those

souls that walk the path to the cross, those that recognize JESUS CHRIST as the divine Redeemer and that pray to HIM

that HE may forgive the guilt. AMEN

FALSE CHRISTS AND PROPHETS

Beware of false Christs and false prophets.... I warned you about those when I lived on earth because I knew of My

adversary’s activities, of his snares and unscrupulous machinations whereby he tries to pull you humans into ruin. He is

using all means, and this especially during the last days in order to increase the darkness in which humanity languishes.

There will be people everywhere who claim to be knowing and initiated into the secrets of creation, who demand

people’s recognition and faith in their spiritual experiences and who are but My adversary’s tools, because they support

and spread spiritual knowledge which completely contradicts the truth. False Christs and false prophets will appear in

large numbers.... They all will wear the cloak of divine messengers, they all will claim to possess knowledge and to be

in contact with the highest representatives…. They will pretend to be messengers of light and yet walk in profound

darkness themselves, and therefore they will only ever spread darkness amongst their fellow human beings. They cannot

emanate light because they don’t possess light themselves, yet their mannerism is so self-assured that people do not dare

doubt the divine mission of those who, nevertheless, in reality work for My adversary. But only people who live in truth

themselves will be able to recognise this and they, in turn, will be described by them to be false prophets…. And it will

be difficult to convince oneself of the true prophets’ divine mission, yet it is not impossible…. The fact that true

prophets exist is proven by My warning against false prophets....

However, you need only ever seriously desire not to fall prey to the latter and truly, you will also know whom to turn to.

For My messengers will bring you a message which will touch your soul in a comforting and helpful way, which will

affect you like a nourishing meal and refreshing drink, which you will continue to desire and thereby become noticeably

strengthened for your earthly life’s path. Whereas the alleged knowledge conveyed to you by wrong teachings cannot

convince you of the truth and does not result in any illumination or stimulation of your soul…. It is and remains barren

knowledge which you will find barely credible and of little use to you. It is more likely to cause you dread and fear

because you are unable to detect a loving God therein, Who behaves like a Father with His child.

False prophets will never be able to offer people pure truth, and the adversary’s only intentions are to undermine the

truth, to entangle people in error. His most eager endeavour consists in withholding from people the truth about Jesus

Christ and His act of Salvation, about God’s human manifestation in Jesus, or to confuse their thoughts such that they

don’t take the path to the cross and thereby their earthly path remains unsuccessful for their souls…. And no means is

too evil for him to use, because Jesus defeated him through His crucifixion, and he is trying to regain the fruits of His

victory again…. Souls, who turn to Jesus, are lost to him, consequently he will try to give an entirely wrong description

of Jesus so that they do not see any reason why they should take the path to the cross. The truthful portrayal of the act of

Salvation also has a redeeming effect, and this means that My adversary will lose his followers, what he tries to prevent

by cunning and trickery. And you humans can truly and easily recognise every false prophet yourselves by the fact that

he withholds the knowledge of the Salvation through Jesus Christ from you, and thus you are entitled to dismiss him as

a ‘false prophet’…. And especially during the last days you can notice increasingly more often that most diverse

descriptions of spiritual subjects are given by those who present themselves as prophets of truth. Yet in one instance

they all agree, that the salvation through Jesus Christ…. the sacrifice on the cross by the man Jesus to redeem the

immense guilt of sin…. is doubtful, because the belief in this signifies a loss of followers for My adversary and he does

not want to lose them….

Jesus Christ has been argued about for centuries already, because time and again false prophets arose who were

influenced by My adversary to act against Jesus, what already proved their affiliation to him.... Although they were

unable to completely dispute the earthly life of the man Jesus and thereby remove the knowledge of him entirely, the

real purpose of His earthly existence…. His redeeming mission…. was repeatedly portrayed as a misguided teaching

which removed people’s hope to ever be released from their guilt of sin unless they made amends themselves…. unless

they thus believed these false prophets. Yet no human being will ever be able to release himself from his immense guilt

of sin without the help of Jesus Christ; no human being will ever succeed to perfect himself by his own strength without

Jesus Christ, because the original sin absolutely prevents this …. Hence ‘self-redemption’ is impossible, irrespective

how sincerely it is aspired to, because the human being’s will is too weak and would fail time and again….

Regardless how you are instructed.... if Jesus Christ is not portrayed as the Son of God and Saviour of the world, in

Whom I embodied Myself, you are not taught the complete truth, and you will not become free eternally, since only

truth will set you free. And I Myself transmit this truth to you, I Myself, your God and Creator of eternity, the greatest

and most perfect spirit in infinity.... I transmit the revelations to you directly and guide you into truth, because I want to

give you the light of awareness again, which you once gave away voluntarily and which will be returned to you

providing you willingly accept it, providing you let yourselves be taught by Me and surrender to Me with love, thus also

fulfil My will…. providing you change yourselves to love and accept your original nature again in which you were

happy beyond description. Only One can promise all this to you, and only One can help you to achieve it, and this One

is Jesus, Who is completely merged with Me, thus He and I are one.... God from eternity to eternity. AMEN

EXPLANATION ABOUT RE-INCARNATION… JESUS AND SALVATION

It is completely misguided to assume a return to earth in order to atone for the guilt of sin, although God’s law of divine

justice demands compensation for all guilt…. Yet there are truly many possibilities open to Me, so that one day all guilt

will surely be redeemed and the being can be admitted into the kingdom of light and bliss again, which is closed to it in

the state of guilt. The kingdom of the beyond, into which the soul enters after the death of its body, corresponds to its

degree of maturity, hence it can either stay in utter darkness or in brightest light and as a result its fate will either be an

agonising or a glorious one.

And both the torments as well as the splendours are indescribable and impossible to explain to you humans, and

therefore the torments.... thus the fate of the unredeemed, sinful souls, can be dreadful and the soul consequently often

suffers beyond imagination for its guilt or for the sake of its guilt, thus with its suffering it also makes amends for much

of its guilt. And its state of suffering can last an infinitely long time if it is incorrigible, if it refuses to accept advice

from the spiritual guides who want to help it out of its misery. For it cannot enter the kingdom of light until it has

redeemed its guilt…. as far as it concerns the sins it has committed on earth….

But since the original sin of its apostasy from God is far greater and this guilt can never be redeemed by the being itself,

the human being on earth or his soul in the beyond irrevocably has to find Jesus Christ, for He alone is able to deliver it

from this guilt for which He died on the cross…. Without Jesus Christ the soul will never be free from its guilt, even if it

languishes for ages in the darkness of the beyond…. Thus it has to call upon Jesus for mercy, for forgiveness of its guilt,

and time and again its spiritual helpers will try to persuade it to seek salvation in Him, Who sacrificed His life for this

guilt.

And if the soul hands itself over to Him, then its original sin as well its guilt of sin committed on earth will be

redeemed…. Then it will be free from all guilt and for the sake of Jesus’ blood will be accepted in the kingdom of light

and bliss…. If, however, the soul is so obstinate that it will not turn to Him despite all efforts by the beings of light

trying to help, it will descend ever lower, its torments will be immeasurable, and if it still doesn’t succeed in lifting itself

up from hell…. which even then is still possible with the light beings’ help…. it will have to take the path through the

works of creation again in order to sooner or later reach its goal after all…. Yet this return to earth is not the soul’s re-

incarnation as you humans assume, and it is also all but desirable, because once again it is an infinitely long state of

agony for the soul, having been dissolved into the tiniest of particles, until it reaches the stage of a human being

again….

You humans have to be told time and again that you will never be released from your guilt without Jesus Christ. This is

why Jesus’ act of Salvation is so significant, because He alone is the gate to the kingdom of light…. For even if your

immense torment in the beyond makes amends for the guilt of sin which you committed on earth…. you will

nevertheless be unable to enter the kingdom of light without redemption from your original sin by Jesus Christ…. And

similarly, even a repeated life on earth would be of no use to you, because you would add new guilt and first have to

find Jesus, Whom you can also find in the beyond…. hence you don’t need to return to earth again….

Time and again I draw your attention to this misguided teaching, because you thereby also devalue the act of Salvation,

because by way of this misguided teaching you try to convince your fellow human beings that you are able to remove

the guilt by yourselves, and thus you bypass Jesus, but without Whom you can never be delivered from your original

sin, which cannot be redeemed even through the greatest agony on earth or in the beyond. Let yourselves become

convinced of the importance of taking the path to the cross, and don’t deceive yourselves with false hopes by which you

will only prolong your unredeemed state and languish for an infinitely long time in darkness, for He alone is the light

Which descended to earth, Which brought you salvation from sin and death, if only you would voluntarily appeal to

Him for forgiveness of your guilt, if only you didn’t rely on being able to cope with your guilt in further earthly lives

and through such belief only ever prolong the state of darkness and suffering, for without Jesus Christ and His act of

Salvation you will never attain light, freedom and beatitude…. without Jesus Christ you will never be delivered from

your guilt. AMEN

ASCENSION OF CHRIST

The time of My visual existence for people on earth came to an end when I ascended to heaven…. For I had fulfilled the

mission as a human being and finally gave My disciples and those who believed in Me as the Son of God a last sign

which should strengthen their faith…. I showed Myself to them once more and demonstrated to them My Divinity by

way of visibly ascending to heaven.... which they were only allowed to observe due to their strength of faith and which,

in turn, should provide them with great strength for their further mission: to proclaim Me and My Gospel throughout the

world….

No evidence can be provided for My ascension either, and yet it took place before the eyes of those who were

completely devoted to Me. For My ascension no longer compelled them into believing, they had recognised Me and no

longer doubted anything, but they had also been initiated into the most profound knowledge by Me and therefore I was

able to ascend before their eyes as a last sign of My might and glory, which occurred and could occur visibly because I

gave My Own exceptional strength for this experience. However, it was only a process which will be experienced by

every soul that perfects itself on earth once it leaves its body and then enters spiritual realms in radiant light which,

however, will remain concealed from the human eye. But it glides up into the kingdom which is its true home. Evidence

of this should also be given to people even though it will not be acknowledged by still immature people who have not

achieved any kind of spiritualization.

The ascension of Jesus will remain a myth to people as long as they have not penetrated spiritual knowledge, because

something unusual had taken place which in fact only My followers were allowed to experience. However, it will no

longer be doubted as soon as the human being’s soul has acquired a certain degree of maturity where nothing will be

disbelieved anymore due to the realisation that nothing is impossible to God…. With Jesus’ ascension the act of

Salvation was concluded. I had descended to earth and returned to My kingdom again which I nevertheless had never

left, for I was and Am everywhere, but I had taken abode in a human form so as to be visible to you humans, and

therefore I also ascended visibly again in order to then always and forever remain visible to everything I created for the

sake of its beatitude….

My Own stayed behind and felt lonely and abandoned as I disappeared from their sight, yet they were imbued by My

spirit and clearly recognised their mission now, and they felt impelled by the spirit to carry out the task with which I sent

them to all nations on earth. For this reason I let them experience the extraordinary event which was the final miracle on

earth that completed My earthly progress.... For they needed much strengthening of faith since their contact with Me

had, after all, resulted in a certain amount of dependence which they still had to overcome, and thus every one of My

disciples time and again was able to recollect the final events in order to then do My will with wholehearted

enthusiasm…. Yet I remained with them in spirit, and throughout their activity for Me they were frequently allowed to

hear My Words which revealed My presence to them, so that their love for Me grew ever deeper and thus their

knowledge increased to the same extent, and with it their ability to work for Me….

I had redeemed people’s immense guilt of sin through My act of Salvation, and humanity had to be informed of this

which could only happen again through human beings who themselves had experienced Me and My crucifixion ….

Now they could proclaim the purest truth about this great act of compassion, and thus especially My first disciples were

unusually strengthened and equipped for their mission, I had personally been able to teach and prepare them for their

task in advance and I had extraordinarily strengthened their faith, although they kept their freedom of will. However,

their love for Me and their way of life permitted My additional gift for their office, for the whole of humankind should

be informed of this occurrence which had originated from the divine sphere for the sake of people and thus I required

appropriate servants and messengers to spread this information. And these had to be able to support with full conviction

what they were teaching …. Their love had enabled them to cope with unusual experiences and to eagerly bear witness

of everything to their fellow human beings as well. But this knowledge of My act of Salvation will always necessitate a

certain degree of love in order to be accepted and believed…. Yet a loving person will be infused by My spirit and

guided into every truth, as I Myself have proclaimed. AMEN

THE OUTPOURING OF THE SPIRIT

Only after My crucifixion was it possible for Me to pour out My spirit, for prior to this no human being would have

been capable of sheltering anything divine within himself, since humanity was still burdened by the original sin of the

antagonism against God. My spirit, however, is the emanation of Myself, and no human being burdened by guilt could

ever have been a recipient of this emanation, for the gulf which existed between what had become guilty and Myself

was too deep.

But I, in the human being Jesus, have made amends for this guilt, and everyone who accepts My act of Salvation is now

also able to prepare himself such that he can receive My illumination of love again, and that means that I Myself can

take abode in the person and as evidence of My presence can also permeate him with My spirit…. Then his thoughts and

intentions will be determined by the strength of the spirit, he cannot think and want something wrong as long as My

spirit works in him.... For he completely consciously allows Me to work in him, he opens himself by intimately uniting

with Me and thus enables Me to lower the light ray of My love into his heart which illuminates everything…. giving

him the most bright and clear knowledge, so that the human being will emerge from his present darkness and be guided

into every truth by My spirit, as I have promised.

This act of the outpouring of spirit, which took place in My disciples in full view of all people, had to be preceded by

My crucifixion, My adversary had to be defeated first so that he would no longer be able to forcibly keep people in

darkness but had to release those who turned to Me, who allowed themselves to be redeemed by Me, that is, who

consciously acknowledged My great act of mercy and wanted to partake of it…. Thus death.... the immense spiritual

darkness.... had been conquered for them, they were able to prepare themselves as vessels for the outpouring of My

spirit…. Now they no longer experienced wrong thoughts, they recognised the truth and also fully consciously aspired to

it, they emerged from the state of complete ignorance, they became enlightened…. My spirit permeated them, and now

they also came closer to Me again, that tiny spark of spirit, which as part of Myself had rested dormant within

themselves, aspired towards the eternal Father-Spirit to which it was inseparably connected. Very simply put.... the

connection with Me…. having once been voluntarily discontinued by the beings, was restored again, and a being that

was once more in contact with Me, the Eternal Light, had to be permeated by My light too, and its every thought can

then only be right. He has to recognise the truth, and then the human being also has to uphold this truth, because he is

urged by My spirit to proclaim the truth to all of his fellow human beings…. And this, too, was My first disciples’

mission, whom the outpouring of My spirit enabled to go out into the world and proclaim the Gospel to all nations. They

had to possess the truth themselves in order to pass it on, and even though during My years of teaching they had been

instructed in the truth by Me, the outpouring of My spirit nevertheless had to take place first so that they then would

brightly and clearly recognise their task and no longer be burdened by ignorance, for they were instructed through the

spirit by Myself, Who stayed with them as I had promised.

And thus, time and again I will pour out My spirit upon people who want to serve Me, who prepare themselves as

vessels into which My spirit can flow and who, like My first disciples, want to bring the truth to people in the

knowledge that only the pure truth can help people in their immense spiritual adversity…. And My spirit will be

effective in them so that the darkness will be dispersed and the people desiring to serve Me by assisting in the

redemption of errant souls will think correctly again. No person can give what he does not have….

However, to you, My servants, I want to give abundantly, so that you can impart it again to your fellow human beings

who urgently require your support, since they will not establish the relationship with Me on their own …. Yet you, who

know all correlations, can enlighten them and even now persuade them to their change their will. And you will always

be able to receive spiritual knowledge in abundance, and at all times…. when you ask questions, they will be answered

such that you will also be able to recognise the Provider, which you then should pass on…. for many people and

countless souls in the kingdom of the beyond will ask questions and desire truthful answers…. they will be able to

receive them from you, for I know all thoughts arising from the heart and will give to every person according to his task

(comprehension).

And this is My working in you…. the working of My spirit, which the first disciples were allowed to experience for

themselves after My ascension. They, too, had to be assisted by My love time and again, for in order to implement the

task given to them by Me they required extensive knowledge, and without My obvious support they would never have

been able to accomplish this task, for I constantly instructed them through the spirit. Thus they did not have to be afraid

to be incapable of working as teachers or of spreading incorrect spiritual knowledge and were able to administer their

office well…. they were able to proclaim the Gospel in accordance with My will….

And today, too, I give My last disciples on this earth the same task of taking the truth to people, which can only come

forth from Me directly. For the earth is engulfed by profound darkness, errors and lies are so widespread that people

have to muster an utterly sincere will in order to find the truth and then also to recognise it as such. But only through

Page 79: Jesus is the Christbd 1567 confess jesus christ before the world… divine protection bd 1762 battle against christ’s teaching… persecution of those who confess him bd 2929 redemption

79

truth can they become blessed, because they can only learn to recognise and love Me when the pure truth about Me and

My nature is imparted to them. And this knowledge, the pure truth, can only be imparted to them through My spirit, but

it will also be clarified for you, because I love you and you only need to establish a heartfelt bond with Me through

equal love in order to induce the spiritual spark in you, which is inseparably connected to the eternal Father-Spirit, to

express itself…. Then I can speak to you Myself and place you into a state of cognition, and then you will also know

what you have to do in order to achieve your goal…. the unification with Me…. while you are still on earth. For when I

instruct you Myself you truly will be taught correctly, and then you will accomplish your task on earth for sure and

change yourselves into love, you will adopt your fundamental nature again and be blissfully happy, as you were in the

beginning. AMEN

BELIEF IN GOD IN JESUS

It is only necessary for you to believe in Me and take the path to Me when you suffer hardship.... for you, like children,

to take refuge with the Father, Who will protect you in every spiritual and earthly adversity because you entrust

yourselves to Him.... Time and again I emphasise that you only ought to contact Me in thought, through kind-hearted

activity or in prayer and, truly, you will not be able to go astray anymore, because your bond with Me also guarantees

you My help to be delivered from My adversary and to return to the One from Whom you once originated. Admittedly,

evidence for the existence of a God and Creator cannot be given to you, you have to believe in Him.... Yet if you are

willing to do so then you will see the evidence that bears witness to Me in everything that surrounds you.... And by just

thinking about it you will already be able to come to believe in Me.... I just do not want you to spend your life

thoughtlessly, to only take notice of the world and believe that your earthly life is an end in itself....

You should always ask yourselves why and for what reason you live on earth.... in order to then also get hold of the

thoughts about a God and Creator, which will time and again encircle you like waves, for the purpose and goal of your

earthly life is to recognise a God and Creator, to acknowledge Him and to desire making contact with Him. Then this

God and Creator will also take hold of you and never ever let you fall again.... And He will also convey the knowledge

of Jesus Christ, your Redeemer, to you.... For you will have to find Him so that you lose your weaknesses, so that your

ascent to the pinnacle is assured.... For even if you recognise Me, you will have little willpower to seriously strive for

Me, since you are too weak due to the sin of your past apostasy from Me.... And for the sake of strengthening your will

the man Jesus died on the cross in order to acquire the blessings of a stronger will for you.... I Myself came to help you

in your great spiritual adversity which was the result of your original sin, and I Myself accomplished the act of Salvation

for the redemption of your guilt in Jesus the human being . So the path of return will now be possible for you if you

appeal to Jesus Christ for strength, if you place your guilt of sin at his feet and express the sincere will to return to the

Father, Who took abode in Jesus, Who united Himself with Him for all eternity.... Even if you thus believe in God as the

Creator and Redeemer, this God can never ever be regarded as being separate from Jesus Christ, for God and Jesus are

one, God merely made use of a external human shell which people called 'Jesus', but Who sheltered the fullness of Me

in Himself.

I created everything, even the human shell of Jesus came forth from Me, Which I chose for Myself in order to be able to

stay amongst people. You humans, too, came forth from My will yet you once separated yourselves from Me

voluntarily, for only love establishes a bond with Me but you forfeited it of your own free will, whereas the human

being Jesus was permeated by love, thus My fundamental substance was in Him, for this is Love.... Hence, in keeping

with His nature He must be God Himself, and only his external shell was human until He spiritualised it as well, so that

it was able to unite with His divine Soul and nothing human remained once Jesus had accomplished the act of

Salvation.... Anyone who therefore has recognised Me in Jesus has also escaped the darkness, for then the Light Itself

will draw him into higher spheres, for I Myself Am the Light, and the light shone to earth through the human being

Jesus because it permeated the human being completely. And I would like to send this ray of light to all of you, yet your

heart has to open itself to Me, you must direct your thoughts towards the One Who created you.... You have to muster

this will freely but then you will also be seized by My merciful love and everything will be done to impart the correct

knowledge about Jesus Christ to you.... and if you acknowledge Him as God's Son and Redeemer of the world Who

became as one with Me you will never ever be able to go astray again. AMEN

JESUS’ ACT OF SALVATION WAS THE BEGINNING OF A NEW PHASE IN THE WORK OF RETURN

When the human being Jesus died on the cross a new phase in the work of My living creations’ return began, for until

then all people were still living in the spiritual darkness that My adversary had spread across all fallen spirits …. All

human beings were still afflicted by the original sin and no one was able to approach Me since My justice did not allow

it until the original sin had been redeemed. However, countless people had already walked across earth and amongst

them were also a few of good will but without enough strength of their own to release themselves from My adversary,

since they all had been unable to establish the right kind of contact with Me due to their lack of love….

They were controlled by selfish love as a sign of their affiliation with My adversary…. And neither did they know the

cause for their earthly existence, their apostasy from Me…. they were spiritually utterly ignorant yet in a worldly sense

extremely busy, and therefore they forever endeavoured to gain advantages at other people’s expense…. They lacked

selfless love through which they could have attained a higher state of maturity. Although the few exceptions in fact

sensed their spiritual hardship and also acknowledged a God and Creator above themselves they did not recognise Me as

a God of love, but only as a God of vengeance and wrath. People would never have been able to progress in their

spiritual development; they would always and forever have stayed the same selfish generation which was unable to

attain higher awareness as long as the burden of the original sin pushed it down.... My adversary would always have

kept people on the ground if a Saviour had not arrived for the sake of the few who felt wretched and in their distress had

called for a Saviour.

And a possibility to establish a connection with Me was indeed meant to be created again one day which, however,

should now apply to the Father…. People should be able to call like children to the Father, whereas before they had only

recognised in their God and Creator a Power they refused to bow down to, because they still harboured this opposition

against Me as result of their past original sin…. A relationship of love should become possible again between the living

creations and Myself which, however, had to be established by people themselves through their willingness to love. But

prior to Jesus’ crucifixion a human being was only very rarely willing to love and then he was excessively tortured by

My adversary…. so that he almost despaired of My existence. But knowing his will I helped him and took him from

earth….

Jesus Christ’s act of Salvation brought an era of people’s greatest distance from Me to an end…. His crucifixion atoned

the original sin of all fallen beings, and now, in the stage of human beings, they are able to establish the right kind of

relationship with Me again if, with the help of Jesus Christ, they live a life of love, if they release themselves from the

adversary’s shackles through the blood He had shed on the cross and thus see in Me the Father and are urged towards

Me by love…. towards the relationship they once voluntarily severed and thereby became wretched. Jesus’ death on the

cross brought humanity’s hopeless state to an end…. A new era began where the human being only needed to take the

path to Jesus in order to be guided out of My adversary’s dark domain…. where the gate into the kingdom of light was

opened again too …. It was now for the human being possible again that he could change himself, that he could shape

his nature into love, that he could become again what he had been before his apostasy from Me….

The first redeemed souls returned to Me, I was able to admit them into My kingdom of light and bliss, which would

never have been possible if Jesus had not redeemed the original sin through His death on the cross…. For I Am.... as

supremely perfect.... also righteous and therefore could not cancel an unredeemed guilt. Much time had passed when

people almost broke down under the burden of sin yet did not recognise their guilt and therefore repeatedly revolted

against Me, Whom they could not deny as a ‘Power’ but to Whom they did not surrender with love. For they once had

rejected love, and all they had left was mere selfish love.... the wrongly directed love transferred to them by My

opponent. Hence, in their nature they still belonged to him entirely …. And this nature first had to change, which was

only possible after Jesus’ crucifixion, Who acquired for them the will and the strength to rise and relinquish their selfish

love…. All these were purely spiritual processes, for in an earthly-human sense they certainly had an enjoyable and

good life, yet no one had any consideration for his fellow human being, instead everyone just thought of himself, and the

strong person oppressed the weak who was unable to defend himself, because My adversary delighted in seeing the

wretched state of the souls he had plunged into the abyss, for he himself was completely without love but full of hatred

and animosity…. And his nature also reflected itself in people’s nature.... Anyone who was strong likewise oppressed

other people and knew no mercy for he had no love, just like his lord…. the lord of darkness…. was without love.

Jesus, however, tried to guide people onto the right path through love. Jesus lived and taught love and demonstrated to

them that love was a strength which even defeated the adversary, and that people can only release themselves from him

through love…

Thus the human being Jesus had exemplified a life of love for the first time for people, until He then accomplished the

greatest work of love and mercy by sacrificing Himself on the cross on behalf of humanity’s sins, so that they would be

set free and through a right kind of life attain strength and light again in order to then travel the last path into their

true home, which Jesus had preceded through His death on the cross…. Whom they now only need to follow in order to

enter My kingdom in a liberated state, returning to Me into the Father’s house, to the Father from Whose love they had

emerged and in Whose love they will now stay forever. AMEN

THE MAGNITUDE OF THE ORIGINAL SIN NECESSITATES SALVATION THROUGH JESUS CHRIST

If the knowledge of the infinitely long path of development, which you had to travel before your last embodiment as a

human being, is given to you and you think about it, then you will also become aware of the tremendous guilt you had

burdened yourselves with by your former apostasy from Me… Because My sense of justice would certainly not let you

endure an excess of suffering if you had not brought it on yourselves. Yet it is not an act of punishment on My part but

once again only an act of My eternal love, because I want you to be joyful; however, I cannot give you a blissful life

which conflicts with My law of eternal order while your frame of mind opposes Me… which is the case due to your past

antagonism towards Me. However, as human beings you cannot assess the magnitude of your guilt because your

thoughts are only limited. Yet the beings which previously had fallen away had no such limitation of knowledge as you

have as human beings… instead they were perfect living creations who were fully enlightened. For that reason their

guilt is so tremendous that it requires an act of atonement which could not even be achieved with the infinitely long path

through creation. Rather, the greatest act of love and compassion had to be accomplished first by the man Jesus in order

to make a final redemption of guilt possible which, however, also necessitates the acknowledgement of Jesus as Son of

God and Saviour of the world…

When you return to the realm of light from where you came you can judge the magnitude of guilt that an opposition to

Me had meant. You will also understand that only by following the path through creation can you once again obtain the

degree of maturity with which you can also comprehend and accept Jesus’ act of Salvation…

As human beings, however, you cannot grasp the extent of the immense significance this act of Salvation has for you…

for each individual soul… and you therefore have to ‘believe’ what you are told and accept the divine Saviour Jesus

Christ without proof. Then you become free of your former guilt and once again place your trust in Me… Who was

incarnated in Jesus… and at the same time voluntarily return to Him, Whom you once refused to acknowledge and

Whom you resisted… You humans certainly can be given complete clarification; however, you are not able to

understand everything in your as yet imperfect state. Therefore it will always be an act of faith when you follow the

path to the cross but it is also your only and certain salvation because Jesus Christ will then accept the guilt on your

behalf, because He died on the cross for the sake of people’s sins, He took them upon Himself and redeemed them with

His blood so that you would become free of sin… And yet, this greatest and most important doctrine concerning the act

of Salvation cannot be proven to you… You have to believe it of your own free will and without any coercion… And

you are able to do so because I will never ask of you the impossible and because I will always help you to come to the

right understanding.

However, one thing you should not omit or exclude: that you live a life of love… because love is the strength which

enables you to do everything, because through love you attain enlightenment, and because through love you unite with

Me again and establish the condition prior to your fall into sin, when My light could continuously enlighten you. That

way I can illuminate you as human beings, as soon as you practise love and voluntarily turn towards Me, no longer

oppose Me and open up to Me so that the flow of My love can pour into you without restriction. But this is only

possible after you have taken the way to the cross, so that you become free from the guilt of your sins, otherwise you

will still suffer in the bonds of the adversary who will prevent you from doing actions of love and keep you in spiritual

darkness because he does not want to lose you. Your guilt has been immense but it is redeemed by Jesus Christ Who

now has become the visible God for you humans, providing you allow yourselves to be redeemed by Him, because you

cannot ever remove your guilt yourselves. I, however, cannot admit you into My kingdom with your guilt because,

although I Am in fact a God of love, I Am also a God of justice… And this justice necessitates complete forgiveness of

sins which you can only find in Jesus Christ, in Whom I Myself accomplished the act of Salvation… Amen

JESUS AS A HUMAN BEING KNEW OF HIS MISSION

The earthly path of the human being Jesus was exceedingly sorrowful.... His pure soul found itself in an impure and

dark environment and experienced this environment as torment, on account of which the child Jesus was never able to

be cheerful, although He was not yet conscious of the mission the soul itself had offered Me to carry out…. From time

to time the light of His soul’s true nature burst through indeed, then My spirit expressed itself through Him, so that he

already performed miracles as a child, which only could be accomplished by a purest being of light in possession of

abundant strength and light ….. Yet this only happened now and then in order that the people in His neighbourhood

should believe in His mission….

And even these remarkable expressions of strength troubled the boy Jesus as soon as He had regained His natural human

frame of mind but impelled Him into ever more heartfelt contact with Me, His eternal God and Father, Whom He loved

with all His heart, which therefore joined Him ever more to Me so that My love, too, permeated Him ever more until the

moment came when He, in brightest light of love, recognised His task …. until He realised that He was meant to deliver

His fallen brothers, until He became aware of the complete act of Salvation and He saw before Him the arduous path to

the cross He should take if He so wanted …. His path of suffering was shown to Him in every detail, the knowledge of

which darkened His soul and filled it with fear from which only His burning love for the wretched living creations

helped Him escape again…. Yet He had to struggle with the decision to voluntarily take the path to the cross, He had to

be willing to shoulder humanity’s every gilt of sin and render such an agonising act of atonement for it that it surpassed

all human imagination. For Jesus had not been destined by My will to make this sacrifice on the cross, rather, His soul

had voluntarily offered itself to bring the lost children back to Me. For this purpose it lived life on earth as a human

being and then had to struggle to make this decision again as a human being, because free will was decisive again too,

for I would never have destined a human being to make such a sacrifice of atonement against his will, because only a

sacrifice made by love was able to redeem the original sin of the fallen beings. And the sacrifice not only involved the

act of crucifixion, the days of most bitter physical suffering and humiliation inflicted on the human being Jesus by My

adversary’s vassals, but His whole earthly life was a path to the cross, because His soul suffered indescribably, having

descended from the kingdom of light into the kingdom of darkness.

And Jesus very soon knew the cause and purpose of his descent to earth and this knowledge burdened the ‘human being

Jesus’ beyond all measure, so that He undeniably travelled the path across earth as a human being yet the pleasures of

earthly life were denied to Him, which every human being enjoying his earthly life was usually allowed to take pleasure

in with impunity…. For His life was constantly overshadowed by the events ahead of Him which…. since He was

merely human…. constantly frightened Him and never let Him be cheerful…. Only in his refuge with Me did He find

peace and strength and then, due to his ever-increasing love, His will to make the sacrifice grew constantly stronger too,

and He carried the heavy burden of earthly life consciously and only ever endeavoured to do My will and help His

fellow human beings…. And this also steadily increased His strength enabling Him to work miracles and thereby

helping his fellow human beings who needed His help. Yet His mission before the actual act of Salvation consisted of

preaching the Gospel to people, to proclaim My will to them and to admonish and encourage them into leading a loving

and righteous way of life…. He brought people the truth which had no longer been recognised for a long time already

and which had to be imparted to people in all purity again in order to induce them into a right way of living, so that His

act of Salvation would then also be correctly understood and accepted by people who made the effort to live a life of

love.

He led the way which all should follow who wanted to return to the kingdom of light, to Me, and who would be able to

do so after Jesus had redeemed the original sin through His death on the cross. This act of mercy by Jesus had such

enormous consequences that you cannot receive enough clarification about it. Time and again the knowledge of it will

be truthfully conveyed to you again, for you should not just see in Jesus the human being Whose life was prematurely

terminated by other people, but you should recognise His great mission, for Jesus’ act of Salvation is of such immense

significance for you humans that it is imperative for you to accept it if you ever want to escape the kingdom of darkness

and be admitted into the kingdom of light. And you will only accept it if you are instructed of it absolutely truthfully,

which always happens through My spirit which alone guides you into every truth. AMEN

ATTRIBUTE OF DIVINE TEACHING: HUMAN MANIFESTATION PROBLEM

I repeatedly emphasize that it is necessary for you to be informed about My human manifestation in Jesus Christ…. For

your maturing, too, solely depends on the fact that you are truthfully instructed about the significance of Jesus and His

act of Salvation for you humans. For although he lived on earth as a human being and as a human being concluded His

life with His crucifixion, He was nevertheless only the outer shell of the Eternal Divine Spirit, He only served Me

Myself as a shell, because I wanted to make Myself visible in Him, since no being was able to behold Me in My full

abundance of strength and light without ceasing to exist.

And this great secret of My human manifestation can only be revealed to you by Me Myself, albeit you humans will

never be able to comprehend it completely as long as you are not yet perfect. If, however, you are truthfully instructed

about this very problem of My human manifestation in Jesus you will no longer be in danger of taking a wrong path, for

once you have this knowledge you have already attained a certain degree of maturity, and then you will only ever turn to

Me Myself, Whom you have recognised in Jesus. Yet this is what My adversary wants to stop or prevent, and therefore

he will lead people into misconceptions and above all try to prevent a truthful explanation about ‘God’s manifestation in

Jesus’…. By means of constant new formulation and wrong portrayal he will not generate clarity in people, and then he

will have succeeded that neither I nor the human being Jesus will be clearly recognised, for he will always want to create

two concepts of God and Jesus, although only one God exists, Who is at all times approachable in Jesus.

Anyone who knows the truth will not allow himself to be worried by this, and he will also identify every different

teaching as error. And yet, the adversary will have many followers with his portrayal of Jesus, Who has achieved a high

degree of maturity as a human being but Who will always be explained to people as ‘existing outside of God’…. when

he disguises himself as a spirit of light before those who do not completely reject Jesus…. And you can at all times

particularly apply this criterion for truth when God’s human manifestation in Jesus is emphasized to be true. This will

always be an assured attribute of a divine instruction. For only I Myself can reveal this secret of My human

manifestation to you, and you may justifiably discard everything which contradicts My instructions. Every single school

of thought endorses its spiritual knowledge as truth, yet as long as they still differ from each other great care has to be

taken and, above all, a serious desire for truth is required in order to be able to recognise it as such. Nevertheless, it is up

to each person whether he sincerely desires the truth, he alone has to make the decision, and thus he also determines the

teacher who will instruct him. He cannot be offered any misguided spiritual knowledge if he sincerely entrusts himself

to Me and appeals to Me for truth…. This sincere appeal is required by Me but it will surely be granted.

But anyone who knows My directly transmitted Word to earth and does not use it as a criterion has not yet opened his

heart to the truth either, otherwise he would feel that no other spiritual knowledge can be likened to it if it contains other

concepts and notions which contradict the truth from Me. Consequently, if a person does not recognise the pure truth his

degree of maturity is still so low that My adversary is able to use him as a vessel in order to deceive countless people

through him again and lure them into error…. Truth always and forever remains the same, it does not change and

cannot be offered to one person like this and to another like that…. as far as its fundamental essence is concerned ….

You humans will always have to be vigilant if you want to possess the pure truth, that you will not get ensnared by the

adversary who is always keen to work in the same manner, and he will be successful too if the person is indifferent or

purely expects sensations, which he anticipates from the contact with the supernatural world. What I offer people will

always take place within the framework of natural law and only the contents will provide a genuine seeker with the

certainty that I Am the source Myself, and he will gladly accept the spiritual information, he will increase his

knowledge, his inner light, and then no error will be able to confuse him any longer for he will identify and resist it….

Yet My adversary’s activity will not lessen, and people themselves give him the right to it. If they only ever would

desire the pure truth he would be unable to interfere, in that case only My messengers of light would be at work fending

off everything impure, unspiritual, and protecting the human being from its influence. And your criterion for truth can

always be applied by how Jesus and His act of Salvation and My human manifestation in Him is portrayed to you. Only

virtuous, illuminated spiritual beings exist in utmost truth and also pass it on to people on My instructions.

As soon as the Deity and Jesus are portrayed to you as two beings you are not truthfully taught, for I and He are one…. I

Myself, the highest and most perfect spirit in eternity, have manifested Myself in the human being Jesus, in His human

shell, in order to become a visible God for you, My created beings, Whom you are able to love with all your heart and

Who also wants to be loved by you…. And thus you should only believe the spirit which teaches this to you. AMEN

B.D. 8696, December 10, 1963

KNOWLEDGE ABOUT JESUS CHRIST IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE

The fact that you repeatedly receive explanations about Jesus Christ’s act of Salvation is because people only slightly or

rarely believe in it anymore, for their thoughts are too focussed on worldly affairs and the act of Salvation is a spiritual

event which cannot be grasped by a worldly directed mind. Yet people are only on earth for a spiritual purpose, and if

this spiritual purpose is not accomplished then the human being’s life was in vain, and the soul falls back into the abyss

again from where it had worked its way up over an infinitely long period of time with God’s help. If it is possible to

make people understand the spiritual reason for the act of Salvation and Jesus’ mission, much will be gained, for then

they will no longer reject Him but they will try to mentally empathise and to comprehend His way of life on earth….

However, humanity is not very willing and inclined to receive spiritual instructions…. unless it is rudely awakened from

its normal life by overwhelming events and painful occurrences and starts to think. And for this reason such fateful

happenings cannot stop either. But by and large they will then indeed remember their God and Creator and appeal to

Him when they need help…. And the fact that it at all acknowledges Him as a Power Which had created it and also

determines the human being’s destiny is already beneficial for the soul….

And yet it is of utmost importance to attain the correct knowledge about Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation, because

the human being will always remain too weak to live a way of life in accordance with God’s will if he does not make

use of the flow of strength which Jesus acquired through His death on the cross and which is now accessible to every

human being as grace…. Only when a human being very strongly revives the faith in a God will he be able to receive

the flow of strength from God Himself, but this person will then also turn to Jesus without doubt, he will be open to

every instruction he receives about Him and His act of Salvation, and he will let himself be redeemed by appealing to

Him for forgiveness of his guilt.

Nevertheless, during the last days before the end this knowledge about Jesus is very faded, people only know of the

purely human events, and they do not judge them any different than those of other people with the same fate, for in their

darkened spiritual state they lack the knowledge about all correlations, they cannot explain it to themselves properly,

and thus they discard everything they have heard about Jesus and His act of Salvation into the realm of myth.

They don’t know that it concerns a highly significant spiritual mystery, an act of profound spiritual reason which is of

immense significance for the salvation of the human being’s soul, for his beatitude in the spiritual kingdom which will

last eternally, and therefore they don’t take the trouble to discover the truth about it either, but rather reject everything

and don’t believe in Jesus’ existence, or they exclude all knowledge they possess of Him from their thoughts as not to be

bothered by it…. But thereby they miss their purpose of life, they only live for earthly goals and do not endeavour their

return to God which is only possible through Jesus Christ, and their earthly life is lived in vain and can lead to a

repeated banishment in the creations of earth….

And God’s adversary will always promote this attitude of people, he will do everything in order to completely prevent

the knowledge about Jesus and His act of Salvation, or he will spread such misguided teachings in this respect that

people will fall away by themselves and thereby obstruct their path to Him. But they are living as human beings on earth

as consequence of their immense original sin due to their past apostasy from God, and until this original sin is not

redeemed they will be unable to return to God, because God’s justice demands an atonement which was paid by the

human being Jesus, and therefore He has to be acknowledged as the Son of God and Redeemer of the world…. Who

made it possible for the Eternal Deity Himself to suffer within the human shell of Jesus and to die for the sins of all

humankind…. Amen

B.D. 8715, January 4, 1964

FREQUENT QUESTION: WHY DID THE GOD OF LOVE LET A HUMAN BEING SUFFER SO?

You humans cannot 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 would have been redeemed…. but 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 their 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 not 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 having 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

beatitude if the sin was not be 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 deleted 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 expiation sacrifice.... Jesus’ suffering,

however, lasted a limited period of time and Jesus gladly offered the sacrifice to Me, because He thereby has delivered

the whole world from the original sin, albeit 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 has 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 were 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

THE TRUE DESCRIPTION OF THE ACT OF SALVATION

I only ever just want you to know that you can only return to Me on the path of truth, and therefore you also have to

accept it from Me, because I Am eternal truth.... But then you will steadily follow the path which will be shown to you

because you will clearly understand why you are living on earth and where your true home is. When you are taught the

truth you will also learn about your origin and all previous events in the spiritual kingdom which will then make your

earthly life explicable, you will recognise its meaning and goal and then try to achieve it. But if you are given erroneous

information everything will be incomprehensible to you and give rise to all kinds of questions which will then be

answered wrongly again …. And then your earthly life will be mostly lived in vain since My adversary will keep you in

the dark and will always prevent you from searching for truth or from sincerely requesting it.

The essence of what you should know is and remains Jesus Christ’s act of Salvation. If you are truthfully informed, your

perfection, your return to Me, is guaranteed because then you will make use of the blessings which the human being

Jesus acquired through His crucifixion. All weakness of will shall vanish, you will seriously strive for perfection and be

relieved of the original sin’s burden which had pushed you to the ground so much that you could not get up by

yourselves. And I will always endeavour to convey to you the truth about the act of Salvation because you need to know

of it if it is to be of benefit to you, if Christ is to have shed His blood for you too, which compensated for your great sin

of guilt…. Because you consciously have to claim the blessings, you consciously have to accept Him as the divine

Redeemer, surrender your guilt to Him and ask Him for forgiveness, because He and I are One. Once you rebelled

against Me.... once you refused to acknowledge Me and now you have to acknowledge Me Myself in Jesus as your God

and Father and long for unification with Me again.

There is no other way to return to Me than the path to the cross, and only this pure truth will lead you there, only truth

can give you the knowledge of how significant Jesus Christ’s act of Salvation is for you and why you have to pay heed

to it. And if, due to My adversary’s influence, this truth is mixed with inaccurate spiritual knowledge, Jesus Christ’s act

of Salvation will also be described wrongly, it will be devalued precisely because it is understood wrongly, which is My

adversary’s objective. He will always strive to keep people in spiritual darkness, and thus he makes sure that the truth

will be infiltrated by error in order to prevent people from becoming enlightened, from recognising and walking the

right path in this light.

It is his intention to render the act of Salvation entirely ineffective, to take all relevant knowledge from people, to

portray Jesus as a rebellious human being in a secular sense who therefore had to suffer death on the cross…. It is his

intention to argue every spiritual motive and thus destroy people’s faith in a mission by Jesus so that they will not take

the path to Him under His cross and instead deny Him as a Saviour of humanity sent by God. And thus humanity suffers

an unimaginable disadvantage, for only He can help their great spiritual need….

By excluding Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation people will live their earthly life in vain, they will stay in spiritual

darkness and therefore also part of him who is My adversary and My enemy. But where he works I Am always active

too, and where he corrupts truth I will constantly send it down to earth. And pure truth will always find its way to where

it is desired. The adversary will not be able to prevent this since the desire for truth applies to Me and thus the human

being has already passed his final test of will, he has chosen Me and will therefore also receive from Me…. And what I

give will always be of utmost value and therefore also help the human being reach his goal.

But you humans should not forget that only the truth can have beneficial consequences because wrong spiritual

knowledge can never result in salvation for the human being’s soul. Hence you only ever have to desire the truth, you

should not be satisfied with spiritual knowledge the end result of which is unknown to you, and therefore you always

have to ask Me Myself for enabling you to recognise the lawful and true and to protect you from misguided spiritual

knowledge. And truly.... I will always fulfil this request, after all, I want you to return to Me and therefore I will also

show you the right path to walk.... And then you will also reach your goal safely. AMEN

WAS JESUS’ SOUL AREADY INCARNATED BEFORE GOD’S HUMAN MANIFESTATION?

Time after time I want to reveal My love for you by introducing you to knowledge which will make you very happy,

because like a bright light it will unveil things to you which previously were obscured by darkness…. and because your

degree of awareness will be raised again which also signifies a maturing of the soul. For love always will and has to be

the foundation for the conveyance of My Word, I could not address you if a certain degree of love were not present, and

thus this love will let the light of realisation shine ever more brightly within you. You are still occupied by questions

which only I Am able to answer, because only I know the regions you wish to understand better:

All elevated, previously not-fallen spirits also incarnate on earth in order to take the path through the abyss for the

purpose of attaining the highest goal…. the childship to God. And for this purpose they have to live on earth in the flesh,

they embody themselves as a human being and live their earthly life just as every once fallen original spirit. They, too,

have to struggle and resist all temptations with which they are confronted by My adversary’s side…. Thus, they must

have passed in truth ‘through the abyss’ in order to then…. when they are recalled…. return as a child of God to Me,

their eternal Father…. And beings of light have descended at all times in order to help people who, as once fallen

beings, should achieve their return to Me …. The light beings’ love is very strong and profound so that they are always

helpful and only ever intend to return My lost children to Me. And I do not stop them if they want to descend to earth in

order to bring help, which is always needed. But the beings always had come from Me, permeated by My light of love

they were living creations of utmost perfection who, with the same will as Mine, work with Me in the spiritual kingdom

as well as on earth when they descend for the purpose of a mission. No being of light will ever exclude itself from a

mission of bringing light to the earthly inhabitants….

And thus the soul…. which as the human being Jesus accomplished the act of Salvation on earth…. was also such a

spirit of light who had initially emerged from Me as a light ray of love to which I gave independent life…. This spirit

had accepted a unique mission because he had realised from the start that the fallen beings needed Him, because he

realised from the start that the first human being would fail and that he therefore as the ‘human being Jesus’ wanted to

help humanity …. He was from the start indeed also actively involved in the creation of the material world, for My will

and strength flowed into all beings which had remained loyal to Me and which therefore were active as independent

beings in infinity. This soul, too, had descended to earth (this soul, too, had previously already served Me as a spirit of

light), and it established the connection between the people and God, that is, it came to people as a spirit of light and

thus enabled Me Myself to audibly speak to people through this soul ….

Hence this spirit of light served Me as a cover, nevertheless not physically albeit certainly temporarily visible to people

but not permanently, in as much that He did not live on earth as a ‘human being’ but only worked amongst people

apparently having the same physical substance, and yet he was and remained a spiritual being Which disappeared again

from sight of those whom It helped through instructions and discourses.

Elevated beings of light indeed embodied themselves physically on earth too, and as representatives of Myself always

also proclaimed My will to people, for it was necessary to provide them with the information why and for what purpose

they lived on earth in spiritual hardship. Nevertheless, a distinction has to be made between the earthly life of a being of

light as a human being and the appearance of a spirit of light through whom I communicated Myself. In that case the

spirit of light was not My visible external cover…. as was the case with the human being Jesus…. but he only served

Me to proclaim My Word to people in a natural manner, for I could also have addressed people from above but then

they would have lost their freedom of will…. Thus I always availed Myself of an external form which could either be a

physical or a spiritual human being. However, the former lived his life on earth as a human being, whereas the latter

was only temporarily visible to people because they urgently required My Word.

Consequently, if it is said that Jesus’ soul had repeatedly incarnated before My human manifestation you should only

ever assume a spiritual appearance when I Myself.... love…. wanted to express Myself to you humans and thus I chose

a spiritual cover for Myself in order to manifest Myself to people. Whereas an embodiment of Jesus’ soul in the flesh

before My human manifestation has not taken place, although I was also able to express Myself in the Word through a

human being if he thus had descended to earth from the kingdom of light. Jesus’ soul had been chosen to enable My

human manifestation on earth, and this soul was truly the most elevated spirit of light Who, as first-born Son, had

emerged from Me…. that is, from My strength and the will of the one whom My greater than great love had externalised

as first-created being.

I Myself, as the Eternal spirit God, manifested Myself only in Jesus, in this highest soul of light.... But it had already

served Me as a spirit of light previously in order to enable Me to speak to people, who nevertheless had a high degree of

maturity which enabled Me to send them such beings of light through which I Myself could address them directly.

But the fact that untold beings of light had also been embodied as human beings prior to this who likewise upheld

people’s contact to Me, who brought My Word to them, who, in a manner of speaking, lived on earth as a mouthpiece

Page 90: Jesus is the Christbd 1567 confess jesus christ before the world… divine protection bd 1762 battle against christ’s teaching… persecution of those who confess him bd 2929 redemption

90

for Me, should be accepted as truth but should not lead to misguided notions, because Jesus’ soul was chosen for My

human manifestation, since it had offered itself from the start for this act of compassion in the awareness of the first

human beings' failure….

It is wrong to say that I as ‘God’ have already incarnated several times…. For My human manifestation in Jesus is and

remains a unique action, which humanity is unable and even the world of light only barely able to grasp, the likes of

which has never before and will never be evidenced again afterwards. For Jesus was not one of many but He was the

One Who was to become for you humans and for all beings in the kingdom of light the visible God, Whom I have

chosen for Myself as cover which shall remain eternally visible....

And this being had an exceptional status, for His love…. as the first spirit emanated by My and Lucifer’s love…. was so

immeasurably profound that only He could be considered for My human manifestation and thus a previous process as a

human being on this earth was out of the question which, however, does not exclude that He, too, took part in creating

the material world, for He knew about My plan of return and He always unreservedly accepted My will and as a being

with an abundance of light and strength was also able to accomplish it. This being was so devoted to Me that it enabled

the complete fusion with Me, that He and I had to be one, because I in Him and He in Me absorbed each other

completely, and this will therefore unveil the secret of My human manifestation in Jesus the moment the being has

attained the degree of light again that gives him brightest realisation. AMEN

COUNTERACTING MISGUIDED VIEWS ABOUT JESUS’ INCARNATION

I only ever want to put an end to doubts which slip into your hearts but which are good, because only then can you

receive clarification, because a person who thinks he knows the truth and never asks for it cannot be taught either. As a

result of My will something will always happen again which will make you doubt, and thus you will inwardly feel urged

to question it. And many misguided views are prevalent which are partly due to wrong instructions and partly due to

lack of understanding, and these are the ones I want to correct… One of them is the popular opinion that Jesus’ soul had

been incarnated several times before My human manifestation in Him… because human beings do not know the

working of the world of light on earth and in the spiritual kingdom. Until they understand the correlations they will

remain indifferent to such misguided teachings and reject them in the belief that they have the right knowledge.

Consequently, these correlations have to be explained to people time and again, which is exactly what I always do…

Because I, the eternal truth, will always convey the truth to people and disprove every misguided teaching and

substantiate it.

The beings of light, which had remained faithful to Me when Lucifer and his followers had deserted Me, are

permanently working with Me and within My will… Their activity in the spiritual kingdom cannot be explained to you,

but they participate in the formation of new creations of the most diverse kinds, because they incessantly endeavour to

provide the fallen substances with every opportunity to ascend, since their deep love constantly urges them to take

redeeming actions. They will also descend to earth themselves if people’s spiritual hardship calls for it... All of this has

been explained to you several times already... But you live in an age which has already been preceded by many phases

of development. And the world of light has always been instrumental in furthering the development of human beings…

And there were also times when I Myself, the eternal love, took care of people who had ignited love in their hearts

themselves, whose nature was thus on the way of returning to Me, however, due to their encumbering original sin there

was still a long distance which could only be bridged by Jesus’ act of Salvation… Nevertheless, My love was

concerned that they should not succumb to My adversary’s temptations, which he had constantly used to tie them to

himself. And thus I revealed Myself to them through My Word... I came to the people on earth in My Word, and the

Word was spoken by a spirit of light who descended to earth for the very purpose so that the people could hear the Word

of the Father…because I Myself was not visible to human beings, but even this spirit of light only remained visible to

people for as long as I wanted to speak through it… Thus the being of light was not embodied in a human being, in fact

it was an original spirit who had not fallen, but this original spirit did not come to earth for the purpose of becoming a

child of God… which is associated with a mission… but for people it was purely a visible external shape for ‘My

Word’, which was supposed to be heard as if it was spoken between one person and another, but without having a

compelling effect on them.

Since I Am ‘the Word’ Myself, I Myself came to earth to those whose hearts were filled with love. And now I adopted

the shape of a spirit of light for Myself, however, he was not physically incarnated as a human being on earth but again

was only active as a pure spirit who had the power to visibly show himself to people or to dissolve the shape of his own

will again… And in this manner I stayed with human beings several times...

And Jesus’ soul, the most loving spirit who came forth from Me, was of service to Me too so that My Word could be

spoken through him, that He thus remained a man amongst men, on the face of it … But the act of My human

manifestation in Jesus was a most unusually significant process which has to be explained as well. I chose the most

elevated and perfect spirit of light for Myself, Whose greater than great love justified this foremost position and

therefore it was the first time that He took on a human embodiment when He was to serve Me, the highest and most

perfect spirit of eternity, as a cover, because My human manifestation in Him has been and remains a unique event. A

previous incarnation as a human being could not have been possible because such an existence as a human being would

have required Him to stay in the region of My adversary, who was still extremely powerful since the original sin had not

yet been redeemed… and the forces of darkness would then have clung to His soul, which He could certainly have

shaken off but He could not have redeemed them, because the act of Salvation was necessary for this… But where I

wanted to manifest Myself no dark being was permitted to have tempted before, and no act of unkindness should

previously have taken place, not even the defence against the non-spiritual which, however, could not have been

prevented because an embodied being of light cannot hand itself over to the darkness.

All these happenings are comprehensible when Jesus Christ’ act of Salvation is taken into account, which first had to

redeem the fallen beings’ original sin... But an incarnation as human being will always imply either the salvation of a

fallen original spirit or to enable a non-fallen original spirit to take the path through the abyss in order to become a child

of God…

However, Jesus’ soul was given the most arduous mission for its earthly progress, it voluntarily took the utmost

suffering upon itself, but the love which filled His soul in abundance gave Him the strength to do so… Even before

92

its descent to earth it had already consisted of the utmost profusion of light and thus was in truth ‘My Son, in Whom I

Am well pleased.....’ I could only embody Myself in a soul like that, this ‘human manifestation of God’ was only

possible in Him... only He could completely integrate with Me, thus becoming one with Me. AMEN

JESUS’ BODY WAS ALSO SOLIDIFIED SUBSTANCE IN ACCORDANCE WITH GOD’S WILL

Accept My instructions and ask Me whatever you would like to know, because I want to explain the truth to you so that

you can pass it on to those who ask you. Although you can only receive appropriate clarification in accordance with

your comprehension I will also give your intellect the ability to recognise spiritual knowledge, and thus you will be able

to stand up to the rational person where necessary. Reconciling the physical consistency of the man Jesus with the

supreme spirit of light, Who descended to earth in order to serve Me as a cover for My human manifestation, is difficult

for you to understand… Fallen as well as non-fallen original spirits live on earth in a physical external frame which

consists of impure substances of another original spirit, thus they are still at the beginning of their development…

Hence the soul is meant to perfect itself during its life on earth, it should remove everything unspiritual within itself, it

should resist all temptation, discard all impure waste, fight against impure instincts and desires, change all vices into

virtues… thus it should change its whole being into love… And it is constantly harassed by the immature substance

which wants to pull the soul down again and which is constantly driven to do so by My adversary. Consequently, human

life on earth is the last process of purification within the physical external form, and it can result in complete success, in

the soul’s total spiritualization… At the same time the soul can redeem and spiritualise the body, too, if it tries to

influence this immature substance with much love…. if it stifles all worldly lust and increasingly tries to persuade the

body to completely detach itself from the world …. if, therefore, soul and body jointly follow the spirit within and enter

into an innermost connection with Me…

Every human being will have to fight these conflicts with himself, because every physical external frame is an immature

spiritual substance which still belongs to the adversary, it merely cannot be controlled by him directly during the period

of constraint, whereas the soul is exposed to the temptations of the adversary during its earthly life and needs to resist

them firmly … and the body, due to its immaturity, will always aggravate the soul’s aspirations, because the

undeveloped spiritual substance is still more aligned with darker realms. However, it can receive light if it carries out

deeds of love, and then the body will always participate in everything the soul wants to do.

Although Jesus’ soul certainly had a physical body there was, nevertheless, a difference, because His body, His physical

cover, did not belong to a once-fallen original spirit, in spite of being physical, i.e. in accordance with My will solidified

spiritual substance, which could not actually be influenced by My adversary because it did not belong to him since he

had no authority over any spirit which had not fallen. But Jesus had to fulfil a mission... to achieve His own

spiritualization on earth through love and the agonizing death at the cross... through the act of Salvation. When His soul

had descended to earth and entered into a physical cover it was besieged and held by numerous immature substances

which had been attracted by the light, but which experienced the light as torment and tried to extinguish it. The soul of

light had entered the kingdom of darkness and had to pass through this area and disperse and redeem everything entering

its sphere with its light … It had to suffer with love and try to help all unspiritual substances which had joined it,

because His immense love caused Jesus to descend to earth and the soul did not surrender this love but used it as

strength for the weak wretched substance which clung to it and which it could not remove forcefully, since His love did

not allow it.

And thus the body was harassed by the said immature spiritual substance which wanted to transfer all instincts that are

inherent in every human to the body. And externally, from other people, the soul was equally troubled by many

different temptations which stimulated the natural instincts in Jesus’ body, because His body was created no different

than that of other people albeit it did not contain any satanically attached substances, since due to My will it was

begotten without sin and thus a pure vessel for My human manifestation within it. But for the purpose of its act of

Salvation the body responded to all assaults by My adversary, to all temptation from outside, to all human seduction just

like any other body and Jesus had to overcome all these instincts within Himself, because He had to exemplify to people

the right kind of life. And thus He had to overcome every human instinct, all desire for the world, all lust, He had to

offer resistance, fend off all temptation without violating love… thus He had to spiritualise His body just as every other

human being, and He succeeded in doing so, having been given the strength by love which also finally accomplished the

act of Salvation… And yet again the man Jesus had to know and overcome all human weaknesses, because He was

intended to become a shining example to all of humanity, because all human beings shall and can achieve this goal...

This work of spiritualization was by no means easy for Him, since the temptations had been particularly powerful to

Him, because the adversary himself had fought against Him as not to lose his followers... On the other hand, however,

the human external frame which was to shelter Me had to be pure and without sin, I could not have manifested Myself in

a body whose substances belonged to an original spirit who had once deserted Me… You have to clearly understand

that. Because precisely this external shape should be and remain visible for eternity. AMEN

The unification of Myself, a most supreme Being of light… My ‘only begotten Son’… and part of a fallen spirit would

never ever have been possible. (The unification of Me, My ‘only begotten Son’... the most supreme Being of light…)

Page 94: Jesus is the Christbd 1567 confess jesus christ before the world… divine protection bd 1762 battle against christ’s teaching… persecution of those who confess him bd 2929 redemption

94

But since the salvation through Jesus every fallen being can accomplish this unification with Me... However, before

Jesus’ crucifixion the salvation had not yet taken place, thus the physical external shape could not have been saved

either if it had been necessary, and hence I Myself could not have worked on earth through the man Jesus which,

however, was the case, because My spirit was in Him and expressed itself with deeds of miracles and through My

Word… So don’t be mislead if you are given knowledge which does not correspond to this… but believe that you

receive the pure truth from Me Myself because I know how misguided the thoughts of many people still are, and I will

correct every error as soon as you ask Me for it. AMEN

KNOWLEDGE OF THE ORIGINAL SIN IS NECESSARY IN ORDER TO UNDERSTAND THE ACT OF

SALVATION… IN ORDER TO ACKNOWLEDGE JESUS CHRIST AS THE ‘REDEEMER’

You humans lack the knowledge about the first original sin, consequently you also consider Jesus Christ’s act of

Salvation just an atonement for your human guilt, indeed, you even deny His ‘act of Salvation’ because… you

believe…. that everyone has to pay for their guilt down to the last coin. This opinion would be understandable if it only

concerned the sin you burdened yourselves with as human beings…. but it concerns the immense first original sin, the

spirits’ apostasy from Me…. a sin…. which you would never be able to atone, which thus cannot ever be denied, which

is the cause of the whole of creation and the reason for My human manifestation in Jesus.

For the apostasy from Me was caused by the fact that the created beings were unable to see Me, and therefore I made

Myself visible in Jesus. Anyone who merely acknowledges the past original sin by the first human beings will find it

incredulous that these sins necessitated a ‘Redeemer’, he will always maintain that humanity could not be punished for a

sin it had not committed. And therefore even the sins committed by a person as such are indeed an offence against My

love.... but they do not recognise them in their state of darkness, which is the consequence of the immense first original

sin. But this sin explains everything, and as long as people do not know about this event of the spirits’ apostasy they will

find it difficult to believe in the ‘divine Redeemer’, Who died on the cross in utmost pain and torment for the sake of

this immense sin, which He had taken upon Himself in order to offer this sacrifice of atonement to Me. Consequently,

every teaching which denies the divine Redeemer.... which thus renounces the principle of salvation…. will have to be

rejected as a misguided teaching, even if His work as advocate of the divine teaching of love is emphasised. It concerns

the redemption of the first original sin, which only I Myself could accomplish in the man Jesus, and therefore My

human manifestation in Him will be comprehensively explained to you, for I Myself Am a Being which could not be

seen by any of My living creations without ceasing to exist.

If I thus wanted you to be able to conceive Me visibly it had to take place in the form of a being like yourselves Which,

for you, was the human being Jesus. Consequently, it is first of all necessary to know about the event of the beings’

apostasy from Me in order to then understand the process of creation of the visible world. Then you will also be able to

understand the everlasting battle between light and darkness and the appearance of a Saviour for humanity in Jesus

Christ…. of a non-fallen original spirit…. in Whom I embodied Myself, because you had no concept at all of the ‘all-

creative strength’. And for this reason you are able and have to acknowledge a Redeemer, Who died on the cross on

behalf of everyone and Who also prayed on behalf of you humans for the remission of your sins. But it cannot be

granted to you instantly, rather, you have to apply to Him yourselves because the fall happened voluntarily and thus the

return to Him will also have to take place in free will. The fact that a person who seriously strives for perfection will,

apart from the original sin, also be forgiven for his sins as a human being need not be doubted, hence all guilt will be

forgiven and thus forgiveness is ensured. But since Jesus is only rarely recognised as Redeemer by those who accept the

misguided teaching which portrays Him as a human being and ascended master and who do not want to acknowledge

My human manifestation in Him, they do not ask Him for forgiveness of all their sins either. For there is only One Who

can release them from their guilt, only One has the power to cancel all sins…. and that is Jesus, in Whom I Myself

became a human being. AMEN

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF JESUS… FINAL DECISION OF FAITH

It depends on your free decision of will as to whether the gate into the eternity of light after the death of your body will

be open for you, it depends on whether you establish such a close bond with Me that you acknowledge your God and

Redeemer, that you recognise Me as the Saviour from sin and death and completely hand yourselves over to Me…. and

thus can no longer separate Me from Jesus, that you bring all your guilt to Me under the cross and appeal to Me for

forgiveness of this guilt…. I really don’t ask much of you in order to then receive you into the kingdom that is

permeated by light…. I only want your acknowledgment of Jesus, who descended to earth as the Son of God and

became My external shell so as to enable Me to become visible to you…. I don’t ask for much and yet you find it so

difficult to acquire the heavenly kingdom because you have to fight against pride, selfishness and all bad habits which

are the signs that you still belong to My adversary, who transferred all these vices and bad habits onto you so that you

became like-minded and distanced yourselves from Me abysmally. And for the most part these bad habits still exist in

you when you live as a human being on earth, but with the help of Jesus you can easily discard them, for he has acquired

a stronger will on your behalf, thus it is not impossible for you to free yourselves from these bad habits.

But then again it depends on to whom you grant your will, and this alone shall determine your fate in eternity. The

knowledge about the Salvation through Jesus Christ is only very weak these days, only a few believe in the act of

Salvation and completely hand themselves over to Me in Him, who make use of the blessings acquired on the cross and

want to liberate themselves from all guilt…. But they are certain to find redemption and will be able to enter in brightly

radiating light through the gates into My kingdom. Time and again I speak to people and explain to them what is most

important, what they have to know…. about Jesus Christ’s act of Salvation…. However, the fact that most people keep

their ears closed, that hardly a single spiritual Word can be spoken to them, is My adversary’s doing, who in the last

days will make every effort in order to still seduce those of weak faith, presenting everything to them as a myth which

no-one believes anymore.

And again, I can only admonish you to establish a heartfelt bond with Me, your God and Creator, and to look for the

light inside yourselves which I will kindle in every one of you if only you have the sincere desire to get to the bottom of

the truth. Then you will also receive enlightenment about Jesus Christ and His act of Salvation and no longer be

unbelievers. But try to obtain this enlightenment before the battles of faith begins, for then you will be required to make

the decision for or against Me. Then you will have to stand firm and must have acquired so much knowledge about it

already that you will not need to fear any contradictions, that you can stand up for Him and His act of Salvation with full

conviction…. Yet this time ought to be feared by all those whose faith is still so weak that it will only take a small push

to surrender it completely…. And that will be the last decision of faith which nevertheless has to be taken before the

end…. And then it will become evident how many will forsake their faith and how many people will be lost and have to

approach a new banishment because there is no way out anymore. Therefore I can only ever speak to, let you know in

advance what fate awaits you and admonish all people to establish a more heartfelt bond with Me, who have not yet

entirely abandoned Me and also know about the divine Redeemer even though they lack faith…. But it is My serious

endeavour to guide them into faith, to describe the blessings of the act of Salvation to them and to admonish them to

obtain a true light in regards to it, which I will gladly kindle in them so that they, too, will find redemption from sin and

death. AMEN

JESUS DESCENDED INTO THE ABYSS AFTER HIS CRUCIFIXION (1 Peter 3:19; 4:6)

When I lived on earth My constant thought was to save people from descending into utmost darkness so that they would

be unable to enter the vestibule of hell, (which even denied their entrance to the vestibule of hell), on account of which I

continuously proclaimed the teaching of love to make it easier for them to believe in My act of Salvation, and thereby

the work of redemption was already achieved in these human beings. Yet people were still too occupied with the earthly

world, only a few believed in life after death and they were receptive for My teaching of love, and they recognised Me

Myself with ease since I was also able to instruct them and they accepted everything as truth. Thus a large proportion of

those who experienced Me Myself were able to enter My kingdom in a ‘redeemed’ state, yet far more rejected My

teaching, they remained heartless and had to endure their fate in the beyond….

After My crucifixion I also descended into this kingdom and was able to release all those who stayed in the vestibule of

hell …. all the people who had lead a God-pleasing life but for whom the kingdom of light was still locked because they

were still burdened by the original sin, since My act of Salvation had yet to be accomplished…. I approached them as

the ‘human being Jesus’ for they, too, should not be compelled to believe, I joined them in My figure of suffering which

made many ask the question: If You are the Messiah Who was promised to us, why did Your power not prevent this….

why did You have to suffer this appalling death on the cross? For they had been waiting for Me, for the One Who was

promised to them as Saviour. They, too, had to follow Me entirely of their own free will, and it was not difficult to

convince them that I was this promised Messiah….

Then, however, followed My descent into hell…. into the region where I also wanted to bring salvation from the

original sin …. There I was less successful in convincing the souls, precisely because I appeared in the same figure and

was visible to them as the ‘beaten Jesus’ to Whom they denied all power and thus they did not want to acknowledge

Him either. Nevertheless, anyone who wanted to was allowed to follow Me and I released him from his bondage. And

time and again I descend into the abyss to ignite a small light for everyone, so that they momentarily will remember the

One Who once came to them and gradually lessen their resistance, so that they, who previously had been stubborn and

only had words of hatred and scorn for Him, will also let themselves be redeemed by His love. Yet My love will not

hold anything against them, My love is constantly concerned that everyone should be rescued, that no-one will return

again into the bondage of the one who had owned them for so long, and that My act of Salvation for these, too, has not

been made in vain. But I cannot prevent it if their resistance to Me is so strong that all endeavours on My part are in

vain, for I will never force anyone to acknowledge Me, I will only offer everyone the best possible opportunities to find

their way out into the light.

And thus you humans render Me a great service by praying for these souls, for there will always be a few who will let

go, who will be touched by the power of prayer and then can be guided into the light. And in sincere gratitude these

souls will do the same and entice other souls out of the abyss…. since they know each other and they understand and try

to disperse the objections which still dominate them.

Once it is possible that they at least take notice of My greatest act of mercy then they will also reflect on it and try to

make contact with Me…. And then the forgiveness of their immense sin is ensured, then the gate into the kingdom of

light will be opened for them and a long state of torment will have finished. Yet those who are unwilling will be subject

to a new banishment at the end, for one day they will have to regain their self-awareness as a human being and decide

once more…. And thus the process across earth can indeed happen more than once, and sooner or later even these

beings’ will shall surely turn to Me as well, one day the hour of salvation will also come for them. AMEN
