Who was Bertha Dudde?

Bertha Dudde wurde am 1. April 1891 als zweitälteste Tochter eines Kunstmalers in Liegnitz, Schlesien, geboren.

Bertha Dudde was born on 1. April 1891, as the second oldest daughter of a painter, in Liegnitz, Silesia. She became a dressmaker and began to receive pronouncements from God through the ‘Inner Word’ on 15. June 1937.

“In a clear dream I was moved to write down my thoughts after devout prayer. Understandably this often gave way to doubt and inner conflicts until I was convinced that I was, myself, by no means the initiator of these exquisitely gracious words; but instead it was the spirit within me, in other words, the love of the Heavenly Father was obviously responsible for them and introduced me to the truth”.

“I was given knowledge of the spiritual world which far exceeded my elementary school education. I received and receive this knowledge as a dictation in a state of complete consciousness; I write down everything I am told in shorthand, in order to then transfer it word for word to clean copy. The procedure does not take place in a state of compulsion, for example in a state of trance or ecstasy, but in an absolutely level-headed frame of mind. However, I have to want it to happen and then I can receive these dictations voluntarily; they are neither bound by time nor place.”

“Now I only have one wish, which is to be able to make these gifts of grace accessible to many more people and in accordance with the will of God Himself to be allowed to do much more work in His vineyard.”

(Quotations from an autobiography from 1959).

Bertha Dudde died on 18. September 1965 in Leverkusen, Germany.

Autobiography of Bertha Dudde

At the request of many friends Bertha Dudde wrote the following biography in 1953:

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 Silesia, today's Poland. I had a normally peaceful childhood, with six sisters in our parent’s 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 did 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 was able to 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 release himself from it. I was not spared from this either. 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 for 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.

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 every 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 also 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 exceedingly great goodness.

It became clear to me that my limited education due to lack of money, and my lack of time to read good books or visit performances, became my advantage. I was now able to 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 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 not only concerns 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 increases the distance between himself and the Father even more. 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 by 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 before the turning point comes. And it will come. The end-time 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.

Taking advantage of the time of grace before the end ....

B.D. 4962 from September 3rd 1950, taken from Book No. 56

There is still a time of grace, for the end is not yet here .... The human being still has the opportunity to take the right path which leads upwards, and My means of grace are still at his disposal so that he can reach his aim. The human being is still free to do whatever he wants for the salvation of his soul. He can still strive upwards, he will be helped in every way if his will is directed upwards .... There is still a time of grace .... But soon it will be over, and then what has been determined since eternity will irrevocably happen, then that beingness will be bound in matter again, which at present still walks on earth as a human being. It cannot be made clear to you humans how immensely significant this is, and I can only influence you through warnings and admonitions, but you don't believe them much. And again and again I would like to call out to you: Use the time of grace, listen to My words which are conveyed to you through seers and prophets, that the time until the end is only short. Recognize My love in the fact that I repeatedly send you admonishers and warnings because I want to save you from the fate of a renewed banishment in My works of creation. Use the time of grace in which you can still change according to My will. As long as this earth still exists you can also appeal to My love and grace, to My patience and mercy, and you will never make a wrong request if you pray for your spiritual well-being and request My support. I grant it to you in abundance, yet I take pity on your state and your dreadful fate if you fail and persist in your resistance against Me until the end. It is still the time of grace when I will use all means which can still help you if you do not resist Me. Isolated little lights still shine which can illuminate the darkness of your path if you do not extinguish them yourselves. Again and again guides still step into your path, messengers from Me, who offer you their guidance on My behalf so that you will not go astray towards the abyss. I am constantly ready with My grace to help those who call out to Me in adversity or stand undecided at a crossroads; yet the time of grace will soon come to an end, and where each individual soul will stand on the last day, there it will have to stay for endless times through .... in light or in darkness .... Then My love and mercy will give way to justice. Then the gates of the spiritual kingdom close for those who did not use My time of grace .... Then the soul that has apostatized from Me must inevitably take the path that I wanted to spare it, the path through creation for the purpose of slowly returning to Me .... it must travel the path of ascent once again in greatest agony of being bound, because it did not heed My admonitions and warnings, because it did not avail itself of My grace, because it spurned My love ....

Amen

Admonitions and warnings to Bertha Dudde and us and for the dissemination of proclamations

Reminder to endure .... Spiritual knowledge ....

B.D. 0182 from November 16th 1937, taken from Book No. 5/6

Behold, my child, everything you start incorporates the blessing that your thoughts are always turned towards the spirit and anyone who strives that way acts in agreement with the Highest Being. If you leave this path, innumerable possibilities will be lost to you .... Your life goes on but in part not as evaluated as is possible this way. And since it is not just for the salvation of your soul but for the soul of many of earth's children you have to endure .... Because you can be immensely effective on earth. We have no other means to impart spiritual knowledge to you in a better way, we can only use the laws given to us by our Lord and Saviour, and during our communication with you we exhaust every avenue for your benefit. And again it depends on your will to receive more and more .... The work on yourself .... the ever deepening union with God .... will also enable you to penetrate ever deeper into divine truths .... and by doing so you in turn give us the opportunity to pass on all the lessons as instructed by our Saviour.

Amen

Translation handled by Heidi Hanna

Protection from error .... Admonition to pray ....

B.D. 0189 from November 19th 1937, taken from Book No. 5/6

You shall hear our teachings continually. Behold, God will give to you according to your will as it is good for you. You will always be able to hear His Word .... His loving instructions will be offered to you as long as your will is good and you want to serve the Lord, but always make sure that you will continue to fight for your faith, for it will become increasingly easier for you to receive the more steadfastly you believe. Ponder everything we give to you in your heart and you will notice that much strength will flow to you if you allow the teachings to take proper effect in you .... Sometimes it might well seem to you as if you write down your own thoughts, yet always reject such ideas .... the protection around you does not permit that mistakes will enter your writing .... These teachings are intended for many people, and only pure truth shall arise through you .... therefore beware of such thoughts which only interfere with your composure and also actively impede our transmissions. Only one thing is essential, that you accept everything with profound faith .... that you utterly trust in your Saviour, Who will not let you live in error, and that you gratefully receive from His hand whatever He gives to you. Now be ready and listen: Once again a worker has arisen for the Lord in whom all of us pin great hopes. Once your heart has participated in this great act of mercy by our heavenly Father it will never want to let go of it again .... The pleasures of the world will no longer be able to beguile such a child, for it will live in God’s grace, to live each day in His love is incomparably more valuable. The desire will soon arise to penetrate the spiritual world more deeply, and the earthly world with its enticements can no longer offer the child of God anything that is comparable to these blessings. And yet time after time the Father cautions not to slow down in prayer, for only through constant prayer will the grace and strength be repeatedly gained again, and only in this way can the human being carry on and attain the goal. Watch and pray! So that you will not succumb to the tempter who relentlessly seeks to alienate the human being from divine striving. And through prayer you will always repel all evil surrounding you and only partake in the grace of the Lord. Therefore remain in prayer and call upon the Father for help with every thought, that He may bless your endeavour and give you strength to believe.

Amen

Emissaries .... Prayer .... Admonition ....

B.D. 0206 from November 28th 1937, taken from Book No. 5/6

Great things are planned by the Lord and your thoughts shall be guided in the right direction, for only by constantly informing those who are willing to hear God's lessons, are we expressing God's will .... The Lord lets His messengers travel through the earthly valley working diligently .... wherever an earthly child can be found, whose love for the Lord makes it receptive for His teachings, it may take pleasure in God's grace and be already allowed to serve Him on earth in a labour of love for uninformed and erring fellow siblings. During this time of adversity, in which many a soul lives on earth, the Lord brings so much help through His servants, so that everyone in serious need of help can take hold of the Saviour's redeeming hand. His pleading prayer penetrates through to the Father and .... with a just little confidence that your prayer will be answered .... many helpful beings will guide you so that you will escape your soul's adversity .... so that you will become free from evil influences and without reservation accept what the Father prepares for you and sends to you through His messengers. Any person's serious prayers will be granted because the Father loves His children. Dear child, listen to what we want to say to you: Consider that everyone is intended to pursue his goal on earth in divine unity .... to become as one again with the Father, Who gave him life on earth in order to advance his spiritual development .... The Lord in His love informs you to look upon this goal, this striving, as the most important thing in life; not one of you should carelessly ignore that he must justify himself one day if he has not used his life correctly for eternity. How bitterly he will have to regret it one day, and how far more difficult will his striving for perfection be in the beyond when he, entirely dependent on the loving activity of higher spiritual beings, must lift himself up through tireless work of improving himself .... When, in fact, you may draw grace upon grace on earth which is granted to you by the Saviour in abundance if only you appeal for it .... why don't you want to make an effort to partake of this grace? .... Therefore, accept all the teachings the Lord sends to you .... become strong in faith, live in love and pray .... pray all the time, then you will, richly blessed, fulfil your purpose in earthly life and make use of this life for eternity ....

Amen

Translation handled by Heidi Hanna

Warning .... The Saviour's love ....

B.D. 0211 from December 2nd 1937, taken from Book No. 5/6

During an hour of silence you will experience the Lord's grace, Who will inform you of His will and assign your future activity to you. Dear child, always seek to keep your heart pure, for only then will you receive the strength to diligently comply with your duty on earth .... If you are cautioned by the Father, you will find yourself facing a cliff, and then you should conscientiously try to know yourself and make an effort to improve so that you can flawlessly face your Creator .... in order to then receive clear and pure Words of truth. In this life everyone makes the great mistake of confiding insufficiently in the Saviour Who would like to grant him all His love .... Who would like to look after him and guide him through his whole life on earth. After all, anyone who appeals for the Saviour's love travels the long path through the earthly valley with Him; would this awareness not make anyone blissfully happy? What could be more pleasant than to avoid all obstacles of life guided by Him? ....(Break)

Translation handled by Heidi Hanna

Warning against evil forces ....

B.D. 0212 from December 2nd 1937, taken from Book No. 5/6

Dear soul, why do you afflict me .... let it be sufficient for you .... Angels are messengers from God, sent to serve those who shall inherit beatitude .... Pointless ....

In writing I can give you more. Protect your heart from unbelief and look after your soul ....E vil spiritual beings battle for it and would like to plunge you into ruin .... remain faithful to the Lord time and again and long for Him. For even if your spirit is willing .... embittered opponents fight in the ranks of the enemy .... The Saviour Himself will help you, but do not leave the right path and always remain His child.

Amen

Translation handled by Heidi Hanna

Spiritual protection .... Warning ....

B.D. 0213 from December 3rd 1937, taken from Book No. 5/6

Oh my dear child .... in the world the Lord has arranged that His servants are surrounded by spiritual protection .... without it you would have to perish, for you are constantly pursued by evil powers intent on pushing you off the path you are taking. It is a constant battle for your soul; nevertheless, the Father leads you out of all danger .... Lay your heart down at His feet and He will protect it now and forever. And when you experience the salvation of God .... when you are blessed to hear the Word of God, all demons shall disappear, for the blessing of the Lord is upon His Own and those who want to harm them will perish. So listen to what we want to tell you: It is not the Father's will that you should waste your strength .... It is worthless for you to seek a connection which can give you far less than you are offered through your daily receptions. None of you can hear the host of angels rejoicing about a willing child .... However, if you let the grace pass you by, you will have deprived yourselves and will not be accepted so easily again, for the Lord's will has chosen all of you but you disregard His Words. However, much would be taken away from you, my child, were you to start all over again with that which showed you the right path in the beginning. Time and again the Lord admonishes all of you to remain faithful; time and again He lovingly draws you to Himself, therefore, hand your hearts over to Him and remain gladly and loyally devoted to Him .... But your dear friends shall be advised that only constant striving towards higher spheres will bring them close to the path again which they left for fear that it might harm them .... We make a sacrifice if it is for your highest good .... In hours of laborious communication we will gladly inform you of our endeavours and seek to introduce you to the kingdom of God; however, you must be willing and comply with our advice and admonitions. We cannot instruct anyone with a reluctant heart who fails to make innermost heartfelt contact with us and wants to accept our teachings. Yet we will give increasingly more and in greater depth to the child of God which trusts us .... whose prayer is granted by the Father and which ever more willingly opens its heart and ears to our teachings .... If the Father bestows such grace upon you, then you should gratefully accept it, but don't ever allow yourselves to be set back when you struggled step by step on the path. Continue your path with God and look upwards, not backwards.

Amen

Childship to God .... Father – Children .... Admonition – Task ....

B.D. 0246 from January 3rd 1938, taken from Book No. 5/6

My dear child .... you must always be aware of the fact that you have been chosen by God’s love to receive the divine teachings for the benefit of humanity .... and so you must never doubt yourself, for only firm faith gives you the ability and strength to comply with the Lord’s will. The Lord expects your absolute dedication every time you contact the spiritual world .... nothing should seem of greater value to you than to undertake this work .... you should strive for nothing more eagerly than receiving God’s wisdom. Then each proclamation will come easily to you, you will hear with spiritual ears and see with spiritual eyes, and the Lord’s love will dictate Words for you to write down which sound lovely to you and penetrate your heart with such strength that you will never want to miss this gift .... Trust in the Lord to guide you right, turn to Him in prayer time and time again, and constantly appeal to Him to bless your work on earth. Everything that has been conveyed to you shall one day also be a blessing for your fellow human beings .... So work diligently and place yourself at the Lord’s disposal whenever you can. We, who are instructed by Him, will follow your effort and help you as far it is within our power .... All the gifts flowing to you through divine grace also present us with a state full of bliss, for each one of us is happy when you have accepted and recorded our thoughts. We have so much more in store for you, for the wisdom which tells of God’s working in the universe is inexhaustible .... His love is immeasurable and by virtue of this love the Lord wants to give to you humans, who desire to ascertain God’s Creation and out of love for Him appeal for His support .... For the Lord informs His children of His wisdom .... And you are God’s children when your heart genuinely longs for the One Who gave you life .... for the heavenly Father. Indeed, could there possibly be anything better than the Father lovingly granting your request? .... The eternal home .... The Father’s kingdom .... shall be revealed to all of you if you regard yourselves as part of the Father .... yet you must pray for the grace of the childship to God, so that you will not bypass all the blessings which the Father has prepared for His earthly children. You must profess the Father so that His divine Fatherly love will illuminate you and His Fatherly grace will remain with you, then your earthly existence will be the gate to paradise .... you won’t aspire towards anything else but to finally arrive at the Father. Thank heavens that you had gained realisation .... And the Father with all His love has introduced you to His holy kingdom .... He has made accessible to you what will remain hidden to countless people who do not longingly turn towards eternity .... However, take good care of this gift .... always make an effort to refine your nature .... keep away from all earthly pleasure offered to you, but always fervently and sincerely desire the Saviour’s love and His teachings .... If He provides these for you, you are loved by Him and will receive divine grace without end. For the seed the Lord places into a person’s heart will take root a thousand fold .... and thus His teachings shall be spread which the Saviour still wants to convey through you to the earthly children. This is the task given to you .... Pray with all your heart for the strength to fulfil it to the glory of God.

Amen

Reminder to follow the inner voice .... The cornerstone of truth ....

B.D. 0333 from March 15th 1938, taken from Book No. 8

Know the will of God and always submit to it .... And when the inner voice admonishes you to consider your bodily welfare as second priority, you must follow this voice and devote yourself all the more assiduously to the care of your salvation, because only he who endeavors to fulfill the will of God, always remains in his grace. Thus you are commanded to work continuously for the salvation of the souls of countless children on earth .... And in this activity you will raise yourself up to perfection and this your calling will promote you spiritually and bring you immense advantages, but you should also accept every admonition the Lord sends you and then follow it fully and conscientiously, then the guarantee for beneficial activity is a given ....

But now pay attention to our words and let yourself be guided to see spiritually .... because there where you seek the truth, you will only then be taught when it has become completely clear to you that your spirit has to reach a certain maturity to be appreciated by the Lord, to penetrate into the areas in which the Lord himself wants to be teacher of His servants on earth. Great devotion .... great humility and modesty and faithful trust must be the cornerstones on which divine wisdom and bright cognitive light can then be built .... In order to achieve this, you only have to struggle and pray all the time, because any slackening in prayer weakens your spirit and makes you lukewarm and careless in your spiritual striving.

Therefore listen over and over again to the voice in your heart, which will always admonish you when you are in danger of going astray, and which will also whisper to you when you must pray for strength. Always pay attention to what the Lord speaks to you through the inner voice, then you will remain in His blessing and will not be forced to be afraid .... because with every prayer you strengthen yourself with new strength ....

Reminder ....

B.D. 0348 from March 27th 1938, taken from Book No. 8

In such hours as now only one thing is needed .... leave yourself completely to the Lord and Savior .... then everything will come together for the good. Give only a little attention to how lovingly the Father guides you all, and your trust in Him will grow. For His eye watches over all of you who are His children. Let nothing distract you from fulfilling your most sacred duty, for everything else in life is only for the world .... but this is for eternity. And so the Savior instructs you in always the same love .... He continues to promote the soul-life by increasing your spiritual knowledge and helping you to recognize and follow His teachings.

In what condition the people often are to whom He bestows His grace .... how often does the heart tremble in earthly need, but if it finds the way to the Father, then he grants the earthly child all refreshment, which it needs, because no-one is to suffer, if the purpose of the suffering is fulfilled .... that the earth child has truly recognized the Father and desires Him only .... only a little trust .... and you can put many a care into the hand of Him who leads and guides you all.

If the Lord is to teach you His teachings, your ear and heart must listen attentively to receive this spiritual gift. But if your thoughts dwell too much on this earth, then it is far more difficult for you to succeed, and so the connection is now more difficult to establish because you lack the inner peace, for which you must fight and ask if you want to reach the goal .... Pray and you will be able to quickly re-establish the connection ....

Amen

Ermahnung zum Wirken .... Wille Gottes .... 7 Jahre Leid .... Vaterworte ....

B.D. 0356 from March 31th 1938, taken from Book No. 8

You shall find yourselves in My name and keep My commandments, so I will be with you in all needs of body and soul. Let the light shine and help those who are weak in spirit .... advise them that they will only get well in My love .... seek to ennoble them .... seek to point out to them the power of My will .... give them news of My work on earth .... as I always walk among you who want to be close to Me, as I am close to everyone who out of his love for Me also gives love to the neighbour.

You all do not yet understand which power is inherent in you .... as you can work in My will, if you only desire Me .... Because My will rules over everything, over this your life on earth and also over the hereafter. Nothing remains hidden to Me, and the quiet will in you who are My children, is enough to make use of My will for you .... You willingly give yourselves into My care, and I fulfill your will ...., so you are only allowed to want, and you can also carry out what you want. Overcoming the earth will become easy for you in My name; My spirit will enlighten you, and you will see what has been unreachable to you so far.

You will have to experience the seven years full of suffering, but they will pass you by like shadows, attacking and taking away the many who remained strangers to Me, who veered from their ways and did not want to settle into their true destiny .... To these the Lord will then be revealed in His strength .... but then such bitter suffering will darken their days that they come to realization in the last hour. If you now pray this news of My word in My name, you will make the way of suffering easier for them .... The trouble will make them docile, and then still many will accept the teaching of Christ, to their blessing.

My child, always immerse yourself in what My will spiritually created .... It is your life's work and will bring some things to maturity in you, if you just remain loyal to Me. Your senses and aspirations will only turn more and more to this silent work, and what will then be decided for you, accept everything as My mission, as My will and the expression of My love for you .... everything flows to you according to My command ....

You have nothing to fear as long as your heart turns to Me in love, and I will enlighten your spirit so that you will always recognize My will and make all My desires your own .... Because what I demand of you, I put into your heart and instruct you until you are completely in My will, and then you will be able to work in My stead everything I want .... Because nothing happens without My will, and in love I draw you to Me and make you into what you are to become ....

Amen.

Building and foundation pillars .... Printing of the writings .... Warning ....

B.D. 0376 from April 13th 1938, taken from Book No. 8

You must never despair; the Lord will always be with you who desire to live in His will. What the Lord imposes on you is only to strengthen your faith and to increase the longing for the Lord, because he wants you to be completely absorbed in Him .... He wants to build a house which firmly and unshakably defies all onrushes from the outside, and you must fit in with the will of God and take everything upon you in patience and submission and always let the Lord rule, then the building will be rightly done, for the pillars of which the Lord has chosen you ....

And now, My child, we want to satisfy your desire and strengthen you in an extraordinary reception, because the Lord wants to announce to you how your farther life should be .... In a short time you will be approached by someone whose will it is to contact you for the purpose of printing the writings .... This will be in a circle which you do not know yet .... the foundation of this circle is also to serve God.

And therefore everything that is undertaken there will be blessed by the Lord. In this situation you must then not doubt .... you must always know that the Lord guides you and leads you to these brothers and sisters on earth, that you are therefore completely in His will .... let the Lord continue to rule there, unite with them, and let your heart only always turn to the Lord, then the right thinking will always enliven you ....

But now you will have difficulties, which arise from the respective commandment that meetings for the purpose of spiritual training are not permitted .... Do not allow this to frighten you all .... where the Lord dwells among you, this commandment will be ineffective for you .... During this time some of you are filled with anxiety, fearing that the building will collapse .... But always trust in the Lord .... what He has given, shall be a blessing for thousands more ....

Do you believe that these signs of His great love for you human children can be destroyed by the hands of people when it goes against the will of the Lord? .... So just always make sure that no foreign being gains insight before the time .... So that the course of events is not made more difficult .... so that no premature intervention is made before the work is completed.

For you are always surrounded by enemies, and therefore extreme caution is necessary .... so that you do not trust indiscriminately everyone who approaches you .... But the Lord will give you signs in due time. And now trustingly put all your care, your thoughts and your spiritual work into the hand of God .... The greatest protection is prayer, which you trustingly offer to the dear Lord and Savior .... "What you ask for will be given to you ....", the Savior calls out you, who are concerned about the needs of the body and soul. Become like children and you will receive everything you desire ....

Amen

(Reference by Bertha Dudde to: "The great gospel of John", volume IV, chapter 79 (5)

5) Whoever of you will be a friend of the poor with all his heart, I will also be a friend and true brother to him, temporally and eternally, and he will not need to learn the inner wisdom from another wise man, but I will give it to him in all fullness in his heart. Who will love his nearest poor brother as himself and will not cast out a poor sister, whatever tribe and whatever age she may be, to him I Myself will come all the time and reveal Myself to him most faithfully. To his spirit, which is love, I will tell it, and it will fill his whole soul and mouth. What he will then speak or write, that will be spoken and written by Me for all times of the ages.)

Reminder to help the spiritually ill ....

B.D. 0395 from May 3rd 1938, taken from Book No. 9

Have mercy on every being that you meet walking in darkness, because it is enough to bless you, if you help them to find the way to the light .... Your lunatics are already suffering here and far more still in the hereafter. You will have no easy work on them, but the Father in heaven rejoices over every soul that you bring to Him. In these surroundings there are earthly children .... who are likewise in need of light. Walking on earth has been easy for them, they therefore did not grasp so firm a faith to find and enter the true way out of this faith.

It gave them the world at all times, and this was of little benefit to their spirit. The Lord instructs all who want to serve Him, to be active toward such people. Your creative power is strong and will be under God's blessing both spiritually and physically .... Never be content to accomplish only what is necessary, but strive unceasingly to reach the height, for only constant striving brings you upwards, and a slackening or a tiredness is always a step backwards.

Whatever is demanded of you, you will always be able to master .... But in the spiritual you yourself have to struggle to receive an always brighter light and also to be able to let this radiate onto your fellow men. Always pray for the other where you can .... This itself blesses, and soon you will be able to rule where you have served. You will understand it well when you consider the iron willpower that is your own and that you can use to achieve what you have set out to do. You had to endure a short period of servitude, but the duration of this is in your hands ....

The more you wrestle yourself, the easier the annoying shackles fall, and you are free. But therefore have mercy on those who do not recognize in which freedom-chains their soul still languishes. See, these souls will once thank you fervently, but the struggle for these souls is not easy .... it takes patience and love to point out their condition .... but God provides every willing child with strength, which use will be put on your heart. Therefore be creative and active. That you walk the right path, is the heavenly Father's concern, if you intimately entrust yourself to Him ....

Amen

Father's comforting words .... Admonition to firm faith ....

B.D. 0413 from May 12th 1938, taken from Book No. 9

The breath of God blows around you, My child, when you turn to Me in intimate prayer. Try to always abandon yourself to heavenly grace, and soon the trembling in your heart will be banished, because you must know that whoever trusts Me, acquires an inexhaustible measure of love .... In no distress of body and soul I leave you alone .... because a heart that trusts Me is strong in it's faith. But the eternally highest, is faith .... If you can call a deep, unshakeable faith your own, then you yourself are standing much higher than the highest born man on earth. For those who believe in Me are My children, and those who are children of God are no longer of this world ....

Receive and understand .... I want you to acquire this deep faith, I also want you to present all your worries to Me with confidence .... and I want to take these your worries from you as a father keeps all evil away from his children. The more you trust, the further away all misfortune will be from you .... Your soul is still timid and yet stands in an excess of grace ....

Therefore, your effort to refrain from any timidity should always be to trust only your Saviour and put yourself in a state where you, deeply believing and with a joyful heart, surrender yourself to the Heavenly Father, for His care is your welfare .... and if the soul is well taken care of, then the needs of the body, which still press you, will not be felt and also of so little importance .... which you will only recognize when you have emerged from the body shell yourselves.

The Lord warns everybody against a too shallow faith .... you will feel the power of a deep faith even soon in yourselves .... you will be relieved of every pressure and every earthly heaviness when you only believe because the confidence that the Father in heaven does not leave you without help, will also make all heaviness much easier for you to bear, and so you come closer and closer to the eternal home. Because a true faith is the basis for correct action, and through this you will surely find the way to the heavenly Father ....

Amen

Warning against arrogance and conceit ....

B.D. 0463 from June 13th 1938, taken from Book No. 10

Be careful of everything that can arouse the pride-devil in you. The demons persecute all those to whom the commandment of charity gives cause for activity in love .... they always try to counteract there by slightly trying to disfigure the motive .... that man in his action deviates from the actual task of helping, which is to be regarded as the principle for charity. A small part of self-conceit has the danger that from such an action is no longer pleasing to God, but that the influence of evil forces is visibly felt .... Wherever self-conceit is only a driving force in the least degree, the good work has little or no value. Therefore beware of pride above all, lest you suffer harm to your soul ....

Mystery of love ....

B.D. 0464 from June 13th 1938, taken from Book No. 10

See My child .... no matter how much the mystery of love worries you, you must nevertheless remain faithful to Me, even if you have not yet penetrated it. Behold, I want My children to know that they must acquire it all by themselves .... I put everything into their hearts that is necessary for this, but they will only be able to love Me completely when their nature has become completely love, and so the highest bliss of loving Me is always something they can create for themselves all by themselves. I will stir up the desire for it in My children's hearts and then it will be up to them to penetrate the great secret .... Whenever you do a labour of love you will feel that you are coming closer to Me and then your heart will also feel bliss every time, and this is an outflow of My love for you. Now, My child, practice love at all times and you will prepare for yourselves an unspeakable feeling of happiness which is not like any earthly love and yet gives you all delights. In the connection with Me through deeds of love the only necessary thing is established, for love inevitably brings together those who want to love each other .... What you cannot grasp in this way will suddenly become understandable to you if you remain inseparably connected to Me through deeds of love .... An incomparable blessing falls upon the earthly children who are faithful and devoted to Me .... I never leave these children from Me .... save them from all adversity and always hold My hands protectively over them .... but they must prepare all love for themselves, because I can only give love where the heart is capable of love .... where it only ever performs deeds of love. So know, My daughter, that your body on earth had to renounce earthly pleasures of love in order to belong to Me in ardent love .... know that you will be much happier one day when earthly deeds will have an effect .... And that time is not far off, My child .... Therefore do all your works with diligence, that you may serve the lord of heaven and earth to the best of your ability, for as you serve, so shall you one day reign .... but for this earth a constant deep longing for Me will be your lot, which I will fulfil in abundance if you give Me your heart for eternity ....

Amen

Caution regarding doubts .... Loving admonition ....

B.D. 0491 from June 30th 1938, taken from Book No. 10

You, who are My children, should always remain devoted to Me, and thus I will bless you and bestow My grace upon you so that you will live for eternity .... Yet you, My child, will always be protected by Me in every adversity .... since the will to turn to Me sprang forth from a pure heart, and in this union with your Creator the strength will constantly grow for ever new activity, for realising the whole truth and for being of service to Me. Always enter into contact with Me with a joyful heart and all difficulties will fall away from you, after all, I Myself Am guiding you and will not let you tire in your striving. Nevertheless, be cautious of all doubt, this is a danger you must always recognise .... for nothing will last for long which doesn't have My blessing .... Doubt, however, is apt to reduce My blessing if you don't fight against it. I have so many teachings in store for you and only wait for you to become strong in faith .... Always remember that every doubt is an obstacle to reach Me and you will overcome it because you want to be with Me .... I constantly convey the knowledge of things to you which are far removed from others, and every proclamation shall strengthen you .... yet if you allow doubt to enter your heart you will diminish the strength flowing to you from such proclamations. Therefore, meet all doubts with the firm conviction that you will be helped by your Saviour. Don't let them arise in you but suppress them with all your strength of will for they deprive you of the greatest blessing .... your profound contact with your Saviour, and this is what you must wholeheartedly strive for .... Nothing must be too difficult for you to become worthy of this bliss, for it will release you from all burdens and will make you abundantly happy. The love of heaven takes uninterrupted care of the earthly children who work for the Lord .... no enemy will have power over you unless you concede it to him yourself. Draw comfort, strength and faith from the teachings of the Lord .... and being thus strengthened you will overcome whatever stands in your way .... You will emerge victoriously from such inner battles because your Saviour stands by your side and protects you in every walk of life ....

Warning against worldly pleasures ....

B.D. 0560 from August 28th 1938, taken from Book No. 12

Behold, My child, far from the world only you can find Me .... I will never dwell where people pursue their earthly pleasures and these will always stand like a wall between Me and the children of earth. All the offerings of the world cannot replace what I can give you, and if you don't want to completely distance yourselves from them you will remain distant from Me in your heart. And thus you deprive yourselves of what is most precious to you, for you allow yourselves to be tempted and fall too easily into the snares of the world which, after all, is not and cannot be My true life .... And behold, you are in such danger .... you must pass every test, for I send them to you to test you .... The world does not offer you much, it is only apparent pleasures that do not last, but what you give is far more .... And so I earnestly admonish you not to allow yourself to be beguiled by such temptations of the world if you want to remain in My love .... and devote yourself all the more diligently to your work .... Thus you will also be given the strength to overcome yourself, if only the full will strives for such. You should not give up heavenly blessings and My love for the sake of earthly pleasures, for these can never be a substitute for the gifts from above. And so remember, My child, that even today only My love admonishes you and seek to become and remain worthy of it ....

Amen

Serious admonition .... (Discord and unkindness ....)

B.D. 0720 from December 24th 1938, taken from Book No. 15

Where discord dwells inside a heart I Am unable to enter, for the master of the house is not prepared for My arrival. And thus I advise you to purify your heart first and banish all feelings of unkindness from it, for this contains the seed of evil. You must make a serious effort to comply with My admonitions if you want to be granted the grace to receive Me and My Word. You will receive so many countless hints which you should heed and live up to and your heart will ever more easily surmount that which, at the moment, still seems insurmountable to you. The feeling of longing for Me is always a sign of My loving activity in you .... If it is to be satisfied too then you must banish everything from your heart which has nothing to do with love .... You must only nourish the sacred and pure feeling of love within you and abhor every impure feeling, for it will merely increase your distance from Me ....

Everyone lives his own life and is absorbed in his own point of view, and thus everyone's nature has to be considered and taken into account, consequently everyone has to endure his fellow man with tireless patience and try to adapt to his nature; and if he cannot succeed in doing so he must appeal to Me for My grace and help and he will receive the strength to rise above himself, he will emerge victoriously from all minor tribulations of life providing the love within him always keeps the upper hand. For I especially put you into this sphere of activity so that you would mature and control the weaknesses and faults residing in you. How much must you practice becoming patient if you want to become worthy of My patience .... And how much love you must give to your fellow men if you always want My love to be present with you .... And therefore you should always be lovingly united amongst yourselves, one should take loving care of the other, and don't erect barriers between each other, for all these little temptations are merely the means to an end .... How can you become perfect if you don't learn to overcome yourselves .... Remain in love if you want to remain in Me; know yourselves, then you will also know Me and make yourselves worthy of My blessing ....

Amen

Bliss in the hereafter (house) .... exhortation for this work's progress ....

B.D. 0837 from March 30th 1939, taken from Book No. 17

In the far distance stands a house in the midst of a beautiful garden. It lies like a cloud a shimmering breath over the whole surroundings, and this home, which is flooded with light and truly glorious to look at, is ready to receive and awaits its inhabitant .... And a deep silence surrounds him, if he is led into the house, a silence which charitably touches the one moving in, who has left the earth with all its burden and torment .... See, this is the place where the heart finds its way back to the heart, where love is felt in all its sweetness, where years of separation are forgotten and a new life begins in the harmonious union of loving beings. And if the soul's earthly change has brought it maturity, it will already be received by beings of light upon entering eternity and conveyed to its present abode. And the soul is free and untroubled, and where it stays there is light and love .... and what it thought long forgotten awakens to new life, what slumbered deeply in the heart on earth rises to the height in unimagined abundance, and the soul now only lives true life .... it stands in love. And when the hour of liberation from body shackles has come, then the soul is awaited and led over into the eternal kingdom, into the new home, which is the fulfilment of its deepest longing.

There are still many steps to take until you stand at the door of the little house .... but you shall always see the home before you that you are heading for .... For behold, he who awaits you looks full of love towards his bride .... He sees you standing in the sunlight, his eyes turned towards heaven .... it is his plea and his beseeching that the father’s hand will always guide you ....

So many friends have arrived who want to help you, for the reception is disturbed today by ignoble spiritual beings who find your perseverance unbearable. They try to make you unenthusiastic and make every effort to keep you away from your spiritual work. But equally the good beings are at your side and strengthen your will for ever new devotion. And thus your attention should be drawn to the fact that you may only be informed today of the bliss awaiting you in the beyond for a very special reason, that it should spur you on to be ever more diligent in this work, for there must be no stagnation, which is why you will also be given renewed strength to work for the lord. Don't let yourself be affected in any way, and reject all distractions from you, for spiritual knowledge has to be gathered without fatigue; the reception shall not be interrupted, and many a gap in your knowledge shall be filled with wisdom from above, which the heavenly father sends to you in all love. And where your body threatens to become weak, replace this weakness spiritually, unite with the divine saviour in heartfelt prayer, and He will give you the healing potion in every physical affliction. If the saviour takes care of your suffering there is no danger, neither physical nor mental, to fear, yet you have to come to Him in prayer, you have to request the strength from Him, Who is always willing to help the one who trustingly turns to Him. And if this faith is firmly rooted in your heart, you will be relieved of all physical suffering and can then work doubly beneficially in the service of the lord ....

Amen

Purpose and future of this work .... exhortation to the struggle of the soul ....

B.D. 0871 from April 18th 1939, taken from Book No. 17

This is your duty on earth to serve the lord by dedicating your strength to this work and to accomplish your daily work without delay, for where you lack strength for earthly activity a remedy will soon be found, only this work must not be interrupted or neglected, for it is important to create a comprehensive work in all perfection which shall be preserved for posterity and serve to strengthen faith and to make the task of life comprehensible in all and every way. This work does not only have a temporary purpose but the word of God shall continue to exist as the lord Himself sends it from heaven to earth; it shall proclaim in all truth the great love of the father in heaven .... but it shall also point out the dangers of daily life which may well be able to rob humanity of all faith in the eternal deity and therefore must be fought against most diligently. Times will certainly pass until this work is brought to its true purpose, but during this time many will still draw strength and reinforcement from the word of the lord, which, through His grace and everlasting willing cooperation on your part, shall continue and still bring unspeakable blessings to people. But the sufferings of the coming time will not depress you too much if you have grasped the deep meaning of your earthly work. And where an apparent decline occurs, this is only for the purpose of inner spiritual maturity, which you still have to struggle for, for without this struggle your cooperation is certainly beneficial in itself but not the complete guarantee for spiritual maturity; in order to attain this the human being also has to live through his soul's struggle, and it will cost him double effort, for the slightest deviation from the right path is an obstacle in the work for the eternal deity, and the soul's struggle continues to be a difficult and responsible one. In full possession of his spiritual strength the human being has an extremely courageous heart which is ready to fight, yet the danger of spiritual weakness is far greater than the human being believes .... as soon as he ceases to fight for spiritual supremacy his will becomes weak and the urge for earthly goods gains strength, and this has such an effect that everything spiritual only dimly touches the human being's mind, whereas previously it held the human being's entire thoughts and aspirations captive. This should be prevented with all diligence, the impulse for spiritual work should continue to work in you and every hour should be used in the same way as before. For where the will to serve God outweighs everything else, you are assured of every kind of support and earthly life with its demands need not frighten you either, for this will fulfil itself if you willingly serve the lord ....

Amen

Exhortation to spread God’s word ....

B.D. 0896a from May 2nd 1939, taken from Book No. 18

Without hesitation you shall carry out what you have resolved to do. It is the work of a moment which can destroy everything that has existed up to now .... but a short period of time can also suffice to awaken spiritual substances in a person, and thus every day should be used for the spreading of the divine word .... Everything depends on the will of the human being, whether the days on earth pass usefully or unused. Therefore, the concern for the salvation of your fellow human beings' souls should also constantly spur you on to diligent work, and nothing should stop you or make you fearfully hesitate, for where the spirit from God was at work divine strength is also at work and protects those who faithfully entrust themselves to the lord and saviour from every danger. What was given for the salvation of humanity's soul shall now also find its way into many a human heart .... Therefore rely on the help from above, and provide the ignorant or those hungry for knowledge with spiritual refreshment so that their thoughts will wander into the beyond and demand an answer from there, which will then also be joyfully given to them, and if this task is now no longer doubtful to you, also dispense with it in the shortest possible time, and consider without fear those who are inclined towards your work and still desire clarity on earth. For all is the work of the lord, and nothing happens without His permission .... (interruption).

Exhortation to spread God’s word ....

B.D. 0896b from May 3rd 1939, taken from Book No. 18

You shall partake of all spiritual strength and your striving shall be crowned with success. And I will show you the way again and again, as often as you take refuge in Me .... Consider every event as a pointer from above and don't let your spirit tire of rising into spheres of light, for only from there can enlightenment come to you. An indescribable darkness still surrounds the souls of your fellow human beings, and help shall be offered to them so that they strive for the right realization. And so I now want that the erring souls are thought of without interruption and that all means are used to bring them redemption. The further course of life will prove to you what a benefit right knowledge can already be on earth and how an inconceivable desire for truth is awakened in the human being if only he receives the impetus and has taken a direction of thought which is beneficial for his soul. And for this reason the earthly burden shall also become easier to bear for people who have their salvation at heart. To fulfil the commandment of neighbourly love correctly also requires concern for the soul's salvation, for alleviating earthly hardship is certainly a task in earthly life but only of deepest significance when spiritual hardship is controlled at the same time. People are helpless and abandoned, even if they live an apparently comfortable life on earth, as long as spiritual spheres remain closed to them and their souls are still shrouded in darkness. And so, no matter how lightless their spiritual state may be, they will be offered the right light and also spread a bright glow, and blessed are those to whom this glow spreads comfort and who desire to continue to stand in the light, they will become enlightened and the spiritual adversity will be remedied ....

Amen

Admonition to resist ....

B.D. 0904 from May 8th 1939, taken from Book No. 18

The more willingly you comply with My instructions the more you will be blessed .... Those who seek Me I will bring together, for I choose My fighters who shall lead the way in battle for Me. And thus bear in mind that everything is subject to My guidance, that no step is taken in vain and everything has to take its course according to a wise plan in order to serve a specific purpose again. The one who ends human life well knows why he does this .... And whoever serves Me with all his heart will recognize the purpose of all events .... I only desire love and complete trust from you, and if you give this to Me you prove that you want to serve Me .... And so take note that all further ways are likewise under My protectorate that you may well refuse since your will is free, yet in your desire for love and profound faith you will always recognize My will and act accordingly. Likewise, you will receive information if you are to hold a special office, for I have an assignment ready for you which is well suited to spread My word amongst humanity. I bless those who serve Me and give them all My strength, I guide you and smooth your paths so that you will not waver and never tire of proclaiming My work to the world .... I approach you so extraordinarily, and always and constantly seek Me in spirit, then I will be close to you and provide you with My grace .... The more willingly you surrender to Me the more noticeable My nearness will be to you, and I will keep all suffering away from you if you desire Me and My word and pass it on to those who hunger and thirst for divine refreshment. Peace shall enter your heart, you who receive My word within you, and it shall remain with you, just as I remain with you in the word for all eternity ....

Warning against worldly lures .... admonition for this work ....

B.D. 0982 from June 26th 1939, taken from Book No. 18

The time has come which leads you to your destiny, and therefore the gifts from above will be offered to you such that they can easily reach you or be received without disturbance. However, your own unwillingness is an insurmountable obstacle to receiving, but if this is overcome by you it is also possible that the beings on the other side will close you off from all hostility from outside and your train of thought will only adjust to the messages from above, which will enable a quick understanding and thus the receptions will come about effortlessly. The slightest distraction from outside disturbs the reception, but if the spirit is willing and consciously asks for the assistance of spiritual power, this is stronger than the disturbance. It is now extremely important that you become well prepared for your task which will approach you very soon. And the transmissions from above will therefore provide you with information in a certain order so that you can henceforth ask any question and receive an easily comprehensible answer. At all costs, however, you must pause during the hours of reception. You must not prefix any worldly occupation. The inner voice will always admonish you to act correctly, heed it and take every opportunity, for eager work is necessary and the blessing of those cannot be overlooked by you humans, yet they have been submitted to the spiritual beings by the lord, and therefore they constantly endeavour to stimulate you and promote your spirit. Anyone who puts himself in danger will very easily perish in it .... and thus you are urgently advised to resist all enticements of the world, for nothing is more detrimental to the soul than the glamour and splendour of the world. Then it will find it difficult to return to spiritual work, and this means an omission which is inappropriate in the adversity of the time. Therefore, wherever you can, try to keep away from all worldly pleasure. This is so extraordinarily successful in every respect, a resistance has been overcome and increased freedom has been provided for the soul .... in particular, however, the access upwards has been considerably facilitated, for all fetters which still hold the soul back on earth are obstacles to the flight .... But brave resistance sets the soul free. Consider this when temptations approach you, for every hour that can serve the continuation of this work is precious. Only a strong will overcomes, never let this falter, and ask for all the strength to do so in prayer ....

Amen

Exhortation to spread the proclamations .... near end ....

B.D. 3998 from March 13th 1947, taken from Book No. 49

Pay attention to the announcements which point to the near end, for they are a special gift of grace, even though their content touches you terribly. The last words of admonition are a proof of God's love Who still wants to help you shortly before the end so that you will be protected from spiritual ruin. And they will become ever louder, the admonitions will sound ever more urgent, for humanity is in greatest danger. Yet faith in the truth of the announcements is lacking and therefore they will not be taken seriously, the divine voice will not be recognized and the admonitions will fade away in people's ears and leave no deeper impression. The seer and prophet are not respected, people's attention is directed towards earthly goods, the care for the soul is omitted and divine love remains unrecognized; people are content with the world of appearances and do not strive for the spiritual world which alone is valuable and enduring. And God cannot express Himself more obviously than through the elements of nature .... for these are inaccessible to people's will, consequently only a power Which is exceedingly powerful can subdue them. And this being will reveal itself when the hour has come, which has been set since eternity .... And God always and constantly points this out so that they will also get to know the giver by the truth of the manifestations and now submit themselves to Him. For many who have taken notice of these gifts will have great grace to remain alive, and these will have the evidence of truth and now eagerly stand up for it. And therefore these announcements shall be spread, they shall be made accessible to all who cross the path of the one Who received them from above, they shall be spoken of unabashedly, for this is why God reveals Himself through the voice of the spirit, so that His will is made known to people, and this is why He announces His plan of eternity to people, so that they will benefit from the knowledge .... so that they will work on themselves while there is still time. And time is short .... Believe this and live as if tomorrow is the last day for you. And don't let God speak to you in vain, listen to His voice and believe that He Himself wants to admonish and warn you in love and concern for your souls. He does not want to let you experience the day unprepared when an inconceivably great natural disaster will take you by surprise and bring a change of life for you humans which you cannot imagine. He will express Himself, and everyone who is of good will will be able to recognize Him. Again and again He will make Himself heard and point you to that day which will be followed in a not too long time by the last end, the day of judgement and the complete downfall of everything on earth. And those who survive the day of natural disaster can speak of an extraordinary grace, for it will now be easy for them to believe because everything will come to pass as it is predicted. Therefore this event should be eagerly mentioned, the announcements should always be spread with the indication that there is not much time left, that the care for the souls is extremely important and that earthly things should remain unnoticed as far as possible because they are void, for all possessions will be taken away from people who cling to earthly things, so that they will recognize the worthlessness of matter and the will of God Who can give and take and does so as it is beneficial for the human being's soul, which He wants to save from eternal ruin ....

Warning to intersperse spiritual receptions with ideas ....

B.D. 5711 from June 29th 1953, taken from Book No. 62

To draw from the fullness of the spirit also means complete independence from all knowledge that is brought to the human being from outside. Whoever is allowed to draw from the fullness of the spirit should, as far as possible, keep himself free from other knowledge so that the received spiritual knowledge is not interspersed with knowledge which has been intellectually gained and therefore does not need to correspond to the truth. Where divine strength is obviously active this supply of strength should only ever be increased, but this can only happen through increased loving activity and constant demand for divine strength. But knowledge should never be added as a supplement which has a different origin than the source of divine love, the working of the spirit of God. Then the pure truth will also remain, then no falsification will occur, it can be spoken of the pure word of God which finds access from above to a person who denies access to all other spiritual knowledge .... And therefore it is advisable to only ever adhere to spiritual receptions and to shut oneself off from the world, i.e. from thought material which in a certain sense can be called worldly if it originates from intellectual knowledge, if it is gained through study, if it is worldly recognized and advocated by people who have not yet found the intimate contact with God which results in the working of the divine spirit. Where the word of God is conducted from above to earth, there is a fresh spring from which the living water flows forth without any turbidity, pure and clear and full of vitality. And this spring must be carefully guarded against contamination, the water of life must be drunk as pure as it flows from it, it should not be mixed with an additive because then it loses its strength .... It is a most delicious gift which is offered to you humans through God's great love .... Let yourselves be satisfied with His gift and resist those who want to bring you the same, which you cannot acknowledge as the same because it was not commanded to you from above .... The will may be good but you should set your will against it and keep the word from above pure, you should not agree to a coalition which only means a danger for the pure truth. Go into silence yourselves from time to time and listen within and examine your feelings, which will express themselves defensively if spiritual knowledge other than that received from above is supplied to you. God gives the truth but people are not content with it, they try to improve it and add to it or take away from it as it seems right to them .... yet they thereby reduce the value of divine revelations, they deprive the word of the strength which only the word received directly from God contains. God’s word has strength and affects every willing soul, and it truly needs no addition from human mouths .... and it will retain its strength as long as it is kept pure, as long as the human being only listens to the voice of Him Who makes Himself known to him through the spirit ....

Amen

Water contamination warning ....

B.D. 7939 from July 9th 1961, taken from Book No. 83

The slightest turbidity of the spring water clearly flowing out from Me can also cancel its healing power, it can make the water unfit for consumption, it can even endanger a human life if poisonous substances are added to the water, for even the smallest amount is then enough to trigger a devastating effect, which you are all well aware of. And this example should always make you think why I admonish you to draw the water of life from the spring, why I emphasize again and again that you should bend down and draw water where I have opened up a spring from which the living water flows .... You should not believe that all water has the same healing power .... that every word has the same effect on your souls when it has already been deformed by human additions .... when it can no longer be regarded as 'My word' because it has undergone a change, because it is no longer the same that flowed from 'the source'. And it may not have undergone a change in meaning, but it is human spiritual knowledge at the same moment as it was changed by human beings ..... And then you can no longer speak of a divine revelation in which you yourselves do not believe, otherwise you would not presume to change it .... Accept My gift of grace at the source and know that you will then offer your soul a true refreshment, that you will help your soul to recover, that you can now also continue your pilgrimage on earth strengthened and that you will reach the aim, because with divine strength you will also be able to master the most difficult ascent and need not fear becoming weak and sinking down .... My water of life will refresh you again and again as soon as you desire it and sincerely ask Me for it. And your soul constantly needs food and drink as long as it stays on earth .... It constantly needs My help, for it enters this earth in a weakened state and shall be able to enter the kingdom of the beyond in a mature state when its earthly existence is over. And this earthly progress requires the supply of food and drink .... which signifies the offering of My word to it…. And therefore I will always be ready to administer this food to it, I will always supply the soul with My word and only require that it willingly listens to Me, that it thus goes to the spring and draws from this source, that it drinks the living water which supplies it with everything it needs to mature, to become healthy. For whatever comes forth from Me must possess this strength, because I am the source of strength from eternity, from Whom all life emerged and from Whom all life is also sustained, as it is My will .... And therefore you should all seek out the source which is close to you .... you shall only turn to Me Myself and desire from Me the water of life .... And I will let it flow to each one of you, I will truly not leave out anyone who thirsts for it. And you will not need to make use of a substitute, the 'source' will always be at your disposal, Which is accessible to everyone who needs strength for his soul, who wants to let Me Myself speak to him and who therefore always draws 'from the source' and need not fear any additional human work if I Myself can speak to him .... directly or through My messengers, who present him with the living water as it flows from the source .... I have blessed My word with My strength, and you should all make use of this strength, because only the strength of My word helps your soul to mature and therefore I have made the source accessible to you from which the living water flows ....

Warning against altering divine revelations ....

B.D. 8205 from July 3rd 1962, taken from Book No. 86

How often have I spoken to people through suitable instruments to convey My word to them, to give them pure truth because they were walking in darkness .... how many times have I cleansed the polluted doctrine, uncovered the false teachings and replaced them with pure truth .... Yet it never took long for people to distort this truth again, because the intellect was more concerned with it and then the adversary could easily intervene and persuade those people to make changes which contradicted the truth. And it should be a great comfort to you to know that I expose the adversary's activities time and again and that I always reveal Myself anew in order to supply only you humans with the truth again, which alone can bring you to perfection. These revelations would truly not be necessary if the truth, once conveyed to you, would remain as pure as it originated from Me. But time and again My adversary had the opportunity to confuse human thinking, and he makes use of it in every way so that he himself will not be recognized in his nature and lose his following. Spiritual knowledge which originated from Me should be protected from every change, and you humans should not believe that it cannot be altered .... As long as the human being's free will is not touched, a change of truth is also possible, for people are not yet in that maturity of soul which gives them brightest recognition, yet they are mostly convinced of their spiritual value and believe themselves to be entitled and competent to have to explain My spiritual transmissions to fellow human beings, which already enables My adversary's influence, for My word, which I convey to earth, should be sacred to them .... But what do they do? They believe that they are serving Me by offering these divine gifts of Mine to their fellow human beings in a different form, that they themselves carry out their own literary works and thus let their own intellect become active in it which, however, is not yet enlightened by My spirit and cannot be otherwise they would truly not decide to do such work .... Everyone should ask himself what prompts him to do so .... it is mostly worldly interests .... that they want to come forward themselves or seek to gain earthly goods through it, for if they only seriously aspired to Me and wanted to serve Me then they would also pay attention to the inner warnings and admonitions I send to them before they carry out their intention .... And thus you humans constantly cause Me to reveal Myself, I want to prevent humanity from walking in error again and darkening its path to Me .... You of all people, who should be guardians of the pure truth, who administer My pure spiritual goods .... you force Me to make these new revelations, and if I give them to you then you reject them, you doubt them as having come forth from Me, and yet you need only seriously examine and think about the alleged contradictions which, however, precisely cause Me to enlighten you humans .... I knew when I lived on earth that My pure truth would time and again be deceived by you humans. And therefore I promised you My spirit which time and again should guide you into the pure truth .... Would this otherwise be necessary if you humans always adhered to the truth once given to you by Me? You are imperfect as long as you walk across earth as a human being, and thus nothing will remain perfectly preserved because you possess free will which I do not prevent from defacing the truth, for as long as this will does not yet completely belong to Me My adversary also has influence over him which he truly uses to good effect because he is an enemy of the truth, because the truth from Me is the light he flees .... But you humans need the truth in order to become blissfully happy, and therefore My love will repeatedly guide it to you and you will also recognize it as truth if you are of good will ....

Amen

Warning against changing the word .... Love one another ....

B.D. 8389 from January 21st 1963, taken from Book No. 88

I always preach love to you, and thus I also want love to unite you who want to belong to Mine .... You are all children of one father who once came forth from Me and shall also return to Me. The fact that you all take different paths, that you are more or less distant from Me, does not exclude the fact that you, as My living creations which shall become My children, also possess My undivided love and that this love will do everything to win you back. But you yourselves should all regard yourselves as brothers who have one father, and thus one should only ever endeavour to help the other but not condemn him if his ways are different, if he takes paths which lead away from Me. Then you should only help him and lovingly try to lead him back to the right path. Besides, you yourselves cannot judge the nature of every person's heart either .... But I know, and I often see successes which time and again inspire Me to help him, and therefore I prove My existence in every way to people who still don't want to or cannot believe in it. Thus I don't give up on a person until the hour of his death, time and again I intervene in his thoughts, time and again I knock at his heart's door and desire entrance, and often I even succeed in winning his will before his death, and then he is not lost but can still awaken to life in the kingdom of the beyond, which lasts forever .... And thus I also want love to unite you on earth who are active for Me .... I want you to unite and strive together towards the goal of doing redemptive work for Me, so that many more souls will be saved before the end .... Yet you should also always keep the spiritual knowledge you receive pure and not mix it with human additions which overzealous vineyard labourers often want to add and which did not originate from Me. This admonition is especially addressed to those who have been instructed by Me to pass on pure truth and who receive this truth from Me directly .... I know where there is a danger that pure spiritual knowledge will be diluted, I know where people .... who believe they serve Me .... unintentionally serve My adversary by following his whisperings and making changes to the pure truth I conveyed to people because they urgently need it .... Everyone believes himself called upon to improve or explain it. But this only detracts from the spiritual good, for people are not so perfect that they are entitled to make arbitrary changes ..... However, differences of opinion should not affect love, instead you should exchange your opinions in patience and tolerance, and then My presence will also be evident to you, for I Myself will dwell amongst you with My spirit and enlighten your thoughts and speeches. My spirit, however, will not contradict itself, and the only issue is that and whether spiritual good .... supposedly received from Me .... agrees. For by this the false christs and false prophets are to be recognized, that they impart spiritual good to people which is doubtful, and this they shall examine .... For people can have the best will to serve Me and the truth and yet My adversary can slip into their thoughts if characteristics still prevail in the human being which are his share and which first have to be completely discarded so that he no longer finds a point of attack for his wiles and trickery. But love will always have a balancing effect and through love the adversary will also lose strength, and therefore everything can be settled with love and victory will be yours, for My adversary is powerless in the face of love .... Where love is, there is also bright light, and the human being must recognize what was previously incomprehensible to him .... Where love is, there is also truth, and where truth is, I am Myself .... I Who am the light from eternity .... There can only ever be a spiritual battle between light and darkness .... And you humans must decide for yourselves whether you walk in the light or whether darkness still holds your spirit captive. You have to decide for yourselves whether you gain knowledge through spiritual knowledge .... and then it must also have come forth from Me if you are in possession of knowledge about your outcome and your goal .... about yourselves and your destiny and about your God and creator from eternity .... You must be enlightened about all correlations, about your fall, about the emergence of creation and its purpose and about Jesus' mission and the spiritual reason for the work of salvation .... You can always accept these indications as a touchstone as to whether spiritual knowledge offered to you has originated from Me or whether they are merely mediations from the spiritual kingdom whose outcome you cannot control .... Always try to find out if you want to judge the origin and value of spiritual knowledge .... But love should always determine you, and you should always relate to each other like brothers, for you are all My living creations who should become My children ....

Amen

Warning about additional foreign teaching material ....

B.D. 8677 from November 18th 1963, taken from Book No. 91

When you yourselves stand in the favour to be taught by Me directly, then do not let yourselves be misled through fellowmen, who want to teach you and bring something to you, what has not already been sent to you by Me Myself. There is divine truth, and this will never contradict itself, and if you are now instructed through My spirit, you need no additional instructions on the part of fellowmen, and you are also to repel them, so that your thinking does not get into confusion, what is the aim of My opponent, on whose suggestion also the fellowman wants to express himself towards you. You know it .... or it has often already been told to you .... that the fight of darkness against the light already exists for eternities and that it will also still exist for eternities, that again and again My opponent will try to enforce truth with error, and that there is therefore only one guarantee for the possession of pure truth: when you receive it directly from Me or you receive spiritual material through My messengers, which went out from Me directly and is supplied to you unchanged .... As soon as a man values his own intellect too highly and believes that he first has to explain to fellowmen the spiritual material that has gone out from Me, he overestimates himself, and already the opponent finds a slippage into his thinking, and pure truth is endangered. When you know about all connections, when you know in what spiritual darkness consists and who alone stands in the light .... then you also know that the origin of truth can only be with Me Myself, and you should now look for every opportunity to let yourselves be instructed by Me directly, for this happens both directly as well as indirectly when the word directly conveyed to earth is passed on and accepted unchanged .... Then it is always guaranteed that man moves in truth, in right thinking, and then he is to value the spiritual good highly and protect it from every distortion .... And if the fellow human being himself is of the will to move in pure truth, then his thinking will also be guided correctly, and he will never seek to weave in wrong thought material .... which, however, is easily the case if he overestimates his own intellect and takes a purely intellectual stance on the truth conveyed to him .... Then spiritual arrogance can easily lead to that his thinking gets confused and the opponent can influence him to want to teach again for his part, and now also the danger exists that he imparts wrong teaching material, if the receiver does not have such a strong desire for truth that he rejects wrong thought material, that he inwardly fights against it, because I protect his thinking from error. As soon as a man has a strong awareness of validity (need), he wants to be leader in every way, and then he also often presumes to want to impose his own thinking on fellowmen, which however then also cannot correspond to truth, because self-arrogance always gives the opponent shelter. You, who are now directly instructed by Me, you should close your ears if a fellow human being tries to 'instruct' you .... For I Myself take it upon Myself to instruct you, and I do not need a human being for this, even if he has an intellect as sharp as it is, and therefore you should only accept what I give to you, for I know if and when your knowledge is to be extended and in what way. You will also mostly feel an inner resistance towards humanly conveyed instructions to you, and then this is always an inner warning which you should heed, for the truth conveyed to you by Me is to be protected from human accessories. For I Myself will not instruct a fellow human being to apply his intellectual thinking where I Myself convey purest truth to earth. But I Myself will seek to fill every gap in knowledge where I consider this necessary, and that is why questions will be raised again and again .... For you are all allowed to ask if you humans are serious about receiving the right answer .... And I Myself will always be prepared to give you the answer so that you can also be certain of its truth. Because you will always have to admit that men can err, but not eternal truth itself. That is why you will always do well to only accept Me Myself as your teacher, for what you possess, who are taught by Me directly, can only be owned by the fellow human being who likewise lets himself be taught by Me directly, who only ever asks Me for purest truth. And this one will therefore also stand in the same thinking with you, and you will not need to be instructed by him, because then there will also be no opposing views between you, but as being in possession of the pure truth from Me .... can establish full agreement. A fellow human being can certainly have great knowledge at his disposal, which he has acquired intellectually, but in order to stand spiritually in the sole truth, not the sharpness of the intellect is enough, but a wide-open heart, into which the light out of Me, the eternal truth, can pour itself .... And where I find such a heart there will also be pure truth, which again only I Myself can expand, according to the degree of maturity of the soul, which must be in most intimate contact with Me in order to now also be directly instructed and initiated by Me into My eternal plan of salvation, in order to now also be able to guide this pure truth there, where hearts open again in love in order to receive the truth .... the light of knowledge .... because only truth leads you humans back to Me from where you once originated ...._>Amen

Warning against Amendments .... I.

B.D. 8802 from May 15th 1964, taken from Book No. 92

I will straighten what you have twisted, I will do everything possible in order to lighten your burden, for I do not want to leave you in adversity and constantly offer My help so that you can accomplish the work for Me. However, it is My concern that everything you receive from Me shall be repeated by you word-for-word, and I truly have My reasons for inducing you to do so .... because I do not want any identifiable human work in it, since I truly have the power at My disposal to present the contents so plausibly that every person can understand it. What you think you improve is a criticism of My Word, which is not up to you and should be refrained from. However, I Am aware of your will and thus also of the fact that you make such

Amendments with the best of intentions to serve Me. But then 'My Word' will not be the same as I offer it to people and as I also want it repeated .... that is, unchanged. For only the Word as it flows forth from Me has convincing strength. As soon as a person

Amends it, it is no longer My Word, since it did not emerge from Me in this way. And I certainly know who has not made changes arbitrarily, whose way of speaking complies with My will. Consequently, I was able to select him to accept the dictation according to My will, who had prepared his human shell as a receiving vessel for My spirit and enabled Me to 'reveal Myself to him' in a way I recognised to be right and expressed Myself such that it is understandable for everyone. For I spoke as I was able to speak since the recipient did not interpret it with his words, instead it came to him from Me in the form of a dictation. This is what you should take into account; you should not add or remove anything I dictated to him. I influenced the person in the form of dictation so that he cannot be regarded as the author of the thoughts, so that he often cannot grasp the written sentence intellectually but only understand it as a result of the succeeding sentence .... which is only possible by dictation. This is the obvious sign that it originated from Me, that one can speak of 'My Word'.

Amen

Warning against Amendments .... II.

B.D. 8805 from May 25th 1964, taken from Book No. 92

You should all be told not to apply any changes to My Word, which is offered to you from above. You need not worry, for I truly speak in a way that you can all understand providing you are spiritually-minded and want to understand.

So many spiritual questions have been clarified to you and everything has been explained such that it was indeed possible for you to understand Me without the need for correction, and so you shall abide by this. If I guide you into truth, then you can also be certain that everything corresponds to truth, that I do not convey something to you that opposes the truth, and therefore you will not find any contradictions either. Yet then I also make the condition that you want to be free from all error .... and that you wholeheartedly appeal to Me for it. Then you will indeed be protected from error, you will know the purest truth and can also advocate it with conviction. Nevertheless, there are still many who want to be free from all error, who reject every teaching they haven't received from Me Myself and who are therefore not accessible to any instruction by outsiders either. For this reason I was only able to choose a person who was suitable for this work in My vineyard. His work will be safeguarded by Me and protected from all distortion, as long as the person's will is not opposed to Me. He cannot be forced by Me to work according to My will, either. And therefore I repeat time and again: 'Don't change My Word ....' For the Word I speak in the form of a dictation is My direct communication and I don't want you to change this Word according to your use of language, even if you have the best of intentions, for then it would contradict the hitherto defended declaration that it came to the person in form of a dictation which, however, cannot be disputed ....

Warning about changing the Word of God ....

B.D. 9030 from August 23rd 1965, taken from Book No. 94

Time and again you resent the form of how My Word is conveyed to you from above .... This can be so easily explained by the fact that I avail Myself of a person's power of comprehension, but this should not be confused with general education, for only rarely can I find a person capable of receiving My Word as dictated because this requires the aptitude of instantly grasping incoming thoughts and transcribing them like dictation .... which, however, should not be confused with their own, intellectually contrived thoughts .... This could lead to the erroneous assumption that what the person tries to portray as spiritually received are his own mental concepts. The human being's intellect is inactive then but he hears within himself what the spirit of God tells him .... At no time ever will that which you receive as My Word be incomprehensible for you if you read it with the necessary open-mindedness, which requires understanding .... And a change is insofar inappropriate because you humans, too, constantly change your forms of expression, thus My Word shall remain as it has been received. For its content testifies to its divine origin, and depending on his receptivity the recipient will hear My Word, even when it is transmitted to earth through a spirit of light, for the latter cannot emit anything else but My Word .... And the more intimately the human being establishes his contact with Me the more clearly dictation will take place, but it will never be incorrect, for wherever a mistakes slips in due to disturbances the recipient will soon be made aware of it so that he can rectify it himself. For precisely the danger that My Word can easily become subject to such changes rests in the fact that people want to change it into a form which corresponds to their 'degree of education' which, however, is absolutely inappropriate because I know how to address every human being in order to be understood by him. And the meaning of My address can always be understood providing a certain degree of maturity has been achieved due to love, and this cannot be substituted by even the most comprehensible formulation. And you should always bear in mind that in view of the approaching end My Word is truly offered to you humans such that you can accept it as truth without doubt, because I know that only the truth signifies salvation for you humans and that I do everything in order to convey the truth to you but will also always warn you against implementing changes yourselves, even if this happens with the best of intentions ....

Amen

Admonitions and warnings, to accept the word of God

Warning .... Working against God’s word .... Serious admonition ....

B.D. 0256 from January 12th 1938, taken from Book No. 5/6

O thank the Lord, the Creator of heaven and earth! .... He mentions those who are ready to serve Him and instructs them at all times. And so you have the grace again and again to be allowed to receive the words of the Lord and to accept them as strengthening of your spirit. Pay attention to these words .... Whoever receives from the Lord must remain in the Lord to fulfill his task .... For the fate of man is still bearable .... but once the time will come where the word of God will be the only and true consolation for the children of men .... where people in bitter distress will approach the Father in heaven for help and then it will be given to them in his word.

The soul will long for divine gifts and will turn it's back on the world .... the Lord will destroy what still clings to the world, and His wrath will strike sinners who want to rob the seeking and God-seeking souls of heavenly comfort .... for God has mercy on His children, but where the spirit of the adversary works against them, there he will be stopped.

Therefore seek to wrest yourselves from darkness as long as God in His longsuffering has given you a period .... and if you cannot yet receive the words of the Lord, avoid anything that could bring the wrath of the Lord upon you .... do not work against Him .... His creation wants to go to the light, if it is not hindered by hostile powers .... and everyone also finds the way to the light, just make sure that all warnings and admonitions that are sent to him are not rejected .... If the child on earth thinks about the great question of creation and his own task, the Lord gives him also His blessing and brings the thoughts of man closer to the truth .... but he who autocratically rejects everything that could bring him spiritual light gets into great guilt .... To those comes the hour when the Lord speaks to him with a resounding voice, and if then his heart does not turn to the truth, then his life is a lost one, and the adversary draws him completely into his domain. O how lukewarm you all are when it is a matter of reaching the highest and most beautiful and making yourselves worthy of an unspeakably beautiful eternity! ....

A bright, radiant, light-flooded beyond is open to you, and you walk in darkness of spirit .... You need only beg the Lord for grace, and the glory of eternal life is assured .... Instead, you turn away from His love, you do not make use of the fullness of grace that is at your command, and let day after day pass without remembering that a Father dwells in heaven, who calls you and has prepared His kingdom for you. Recognize the divine love and desire it before the earthly guilt completely blinds you and you block the way to the Father. Every sinner is accepted when he only repentantly implores the Father for mercy, but he who rejects the Father's mercy closes the door to eternity for himself, and his end is death .....

Humanity's need .... Warnings and admonition to accept God's word ....

B.D. 0323 from March 6th 1938, taken from Book No. 8

Your will is enough to enter My kingdom ..... When you pray, you are with Me and I am in you .... because My whole being overflows into your spirit to strengthen your spiritual power so that nothing hinders you to accept what My will is. A small proof of this is that you are completely filled with Me as long as you send your thoughts to Me, and in this short time of your prayer your spirit revives in you still incomprehensible fullness, but not recognizable by your earthly body, innumerable threads go to all the spirit beings that effectively support you and satisfy your desire for spiritual food and strengthening by carrying out My assignment and satisfying your hunger. My dear child .... your spiritual work will have an infinitely delighting effect in the hereafter, do not abandon it .... that I may once receive you and bring you from earthly life to Me ....In which need and danger mankind is at present, is apparent to only a very few of you .... a recognition of the time in the whole extent would leave you frightened, because it now concerns everything .... regarding the existence or passing of your own life, it concerns spiritual life or death .... it concerns your soul.

Instead you chase after worldly pleasures and get caught more and more in the pitfalls of the adversary. So you only need the pleasures of this world to be happy on earth .... but woe betide you if you recognize the wretchedness of your spirit and if you have nothing with which you can cover your spiritual nakedness .... How shall I receive you into My kingdom, you who appear imperfect before Me and have done nothing on earth to be worthy of the reward for eternity .... It will cause you unspeakable agonies, you have to look back on the uselessly spent time on earth and are then in great emotional distress .... Have understanding, before it is too late ....

My warnings reach you again and again and again, but you do not want to hear Me and remain blind to My signs. So listen to the servants I am sending to you, let them speak and pay attention to their words ....; if they touch your heart, My Breath will touch your breath, for they are My words that My servants communicate to you in My Name .... And when you then accept My word, then you are helped ...., then My power has imperceptibly passed over into you, and it will have an effect in you until the end of your days. Because My word will not pass away until all eternity ....

B.D. 4071 from June 27th 1947, taken from Book No. 50

Trust in My strength if you feel weak and all weakness will leave from you .... And then deeply immerse yourselves in My word and the strength will spread to you, which is why you need nothing but My word and this word is able to give you everything, even though it is still incomprehensible to you. All strength is contained in My word and can be felt by anyone who deeply believes in Me and receives My word, for I gave you the promise: "He who believes in Me will be saved .... " And salvation only exists in connection with Me .... But My word is I Myself .... My word is My emanation which signifies strength for everyone who thus approaches Me in profound faith. You need not be weak, you need not fear weakness, for I strengthen you physically and spiritually through My word, and you will recognise the truth of My word when you have reached the degree of maturity that you unreservedly devote yourselves to Me and no longer let arise any doubts about your weakness and apparent inability to accomplish something which seems to exceed your strength. Only that which is still far from Me lacks strength, if it has not yet sunk so far that it receives strength from below, from My adversary. You do not know how powerful you could be if you believed .... And therefore I teach you again and again, struggle for strong faith, do not slacken in prayer and live in love, for then your faith will also grow stronger and come alive .... and then there will no longer be anything insurmountable for you; and make use of every day and every hour, for the time will soon come when new hardships and worries will approach you which you will only be able to overcome and endure with profound faith in Me. Then you will need much more strength and also receive it from Me if you trustingly turn to Me and appeal for grace and supply of strength. You would be filled with anxiety if you knew the day and hour when I will express Myself, and therefore you should use the short period of time as far as possible to increase your soul's maturity, for then you must come forward and instruct your fellow human beings at every opportunity, especially when questions are asked, when desperate people are helpless in the face of the events and their consequences and call for God and yet are unbelieving. Then you must enlighten them and emphasise My love for people who are in danger of losing themselves completely and can no longer be guided onto the right path in any other way. And then you must have conviction yourselves, your faith must be unshakeable, otherwise you will not be able to promote Me and My kingdom, otherwise you will not be suitable labourers in My vineyard. I will fill you with strength at all times if you feel weak and call upon Me for help .... I will help you in all earthly and spiritual adversity so that you will evidently recognise Me and believe in Me.

Amen

Urgent reminder from God ....

B.D. 4137 from October 8th 1947, taken from Book No. 50

I want to heal the sick, strengthen the weak, lift up the fallen, comfort the afflicted, I want to be a father to the orphaned, a teacher to the ignorant, and where an erring soul stands helplessly by the wayside I will offer Myself as a guide to warn it of the wrong path which leads it into the abyss. And all people who need My help and want to accept help will evidently experience it so that they believe that there is a God in heaven Who takes care of them and does not leave them on their own in their adversity. They are only not allowed to resist Me because then I will withdraw My will so as not to curtail their freedom of will. Nevertheless, I could very well impose My help on them, yet then it would not be real help but merely an obstacle to their soul's ascent, which has to travel the path of ascent in utmost freedom if it wants to be saved. And therefore I can only inform you humans through My word of My love for you and of My will to help. And if you now come to Me of your own accord My love can work on you and you will thank Me eternally that I have taken care of you. And thus all hardship and suffering will be a burden for you if you do not want to accept help, and then earthly life will be unspeakably difficult for you and you will hardly reach your aim if My love cannot take effect on you. But I will still not leave you, and if I do not manage it in this earthly life then you will indeed have to go through another life on earth, yet one day you will reach the aim and let My love take hold of you, and your adversity will be remedied eternally. But now I once again urgently admonish you to follow My word and entrust yourselves to My guidance, for you do not have much time left on this earth. Use every day to approach Me, listen to My advice and let yourselves be instructed by those who are My true representatives on earth, who convey My word to you, which they receive from on high, from Me, in order to convey it to their fellow human beings. Listen to them, for they are My servants on earth who shall speak in My stead and inform you of My will, of My working and My love for you. Listen to them and follow My will, and very soon you will be guided onto the right path and will certainly reach your aim in the short time you have left until the end. Let yourselves be seized by My love and you will be eternally blissful ....

Amen

Effect of the divine word .... influx of power .... exhortation ....

B.D. 4423 from August 30th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

The direct influx of spiritual strength in the form of My word has an extremely beneficial effect on the human being's soul, even though he does not physically feel it. It is a state of spiritual freedom, for the soul no longer feels bound by the body, it does not feel the heaviness of earth, it temporarily dwells in spiritual spheres and sees and hears there what it cannot render to the physical human being, thus it would be incomprehensible to the human being's intellect and therefore is not conveyed to him either. For this reason the soul often feels that its stay on earth is a torment, it can only move back with difficulty and has to struggle a lot because earthly things burden it and it longs for the eternal home. Yet the soul also has to go through this hardship as compensation for the grace of being in contact with the spiritual kingdom and being fed by Me Myself with strength, with nourishment which ensures its eternal stay in those spheres. As long as it lives on earth the heaviness of earth will also burden a person who strives spiritually upwards. If the soul now succeeds in making the body insensitive to suffering and hardship, so that the body also despises earthly things and turns towards the spiritual kingdom, then the human being will rise above everything and bear earthly life with equanimity and peace of mind and regard it as a short transitional station for eternity. And My word helps the human being to achieve this .... the strength which has taken on form in order to also be able to be effective for the earth-bound .... For this reason you should often read My word and take it into yourselves, and then the body will also feel its beneficial effect, then soul and body will be nourished and draw strength from the soul's nourishment; the human being will become strong and resilient, he will be able to do any work and no longer feel earthly life to be so difficult. And therefore I always and constantly admonish you to let Me speak to you and to make more use of My gift from heaven .... I give to you but you must also accept what I offer to you, your heart must open and eagerly let My word flow into it and you will obviously feel the effect .... For I want to help you, earthly as well as spiritually, and reveal the right remedy to you, but you must use it without doubting. Receive the strength from Me which is offered to you without restriction, refresh yourselves with My word and accept the evidence of My love, for I know about all your needs and want to help you because I love you ....

Amen

Desire for God’s word .... urgent reminder ....

B.D. 4516 from December 18th 1948, taken from Book No. 52

Let yourselves be taught and accept My word wherever it is offered to you. For I speak to you as soon as you desire to hear Me. Leave it up to Me how My word is conveyed to you, for each one of you is receptive in a different way and I approach each individual accordingly in the word, but I Myself am always present if you desire to hear My word, because I Myself am the word from eternity. Yet you should always bear in mind that you will only find full understanding for My word if you appeal to Me in spirit and in truth for full understanding of what is offered to you as My word. Then the hearing of My word will also be a blessing for you, then not only the ear but also the heart will hear and recognize My will. Then you will also endeavour to live in accordance with it, and then you will also converse with Me more often and accept mental instructions which broaden your knowledge and are precious spiritual possessions, thus you will gather spiritual riches for eternity. Again and again I must urge you to listen to My word, otherwise you will remain without strength for your ascent development and also lack truthful knowledge. I want to speak to you at all times; therefore make use of this and listen to Me and you will truly not regret it, you will broaden your knowledge and again and again let yourselves be taught, once you have received My word directly from Me through the inner word or through My messengers who convey the inner word to you. For this word proves My presence to you, it proves My love and care for you, which I want to regain for eternity .... For your own sake listen to Me, for without My word you cannot become blessed ....

Amen

Warning against rejecting the divine Word .... 'Test all things and ....'

B.D. 4587 from March 13th 1949, taken from Book No. 53

Truly, I say to you that you cause yourselves inconceivable damage if you disregard the Word I impart to you from above, if you content yourselves with teachings given to you by uninformed leaders which you will only understand if you take My Word from above to heart. First you should strive towards light, for only true light illuminates the path you need to take in order to reach your goal. In darkness you will miss the right path, in darkness you will follow the sight of lights flashing up and these are only deceptive lights which distract you from the right path. You must desire true light, that is, you must try to gain the right realisation, to adopt knowledge which corresponds to truth, and thereby form an accurate image of Me as a most loving Father and Creator of eternity, in order to then strive towards unity with Me from Whom you originated in the past. Consequently, you must be instructed of the truth. But truth can only be imparted to you by the One Who is the eternal Truth Himself or by someone who received the truth from Him directly. Strive for this sole truth and do not be satisfied with knowledge which has not emerged from the eternal font. I cannot exhort you strongly enough not to ignore it when My love reveals itself to you and conveys purest truth to you. Test all things and keep what is good .... Take notice if you are offered the gift of God's Word and consider in your heart what your position should be. Don't reject it without examination but bear in mind that you might well reject a great gift of grace, and therefore examine what you are offered. If you can then reject it with inner conviction, then you are not at fault, yet a serious assessment should precede it so that anyone of good will and a heart capable of love will recognise the Father's voice speaking to him. You are offered the most precious gift of grace My love has in store for you .... Make use of it, let the grace take effect in you, listen to My Word and live accordingly and you will very soon realise that it is eternal truth which comes from Me Myself and will make you truly knowledgeable; you will feel the brightness within yourselves and clearly recognise the path to Me, you will be able to believe with conviction and also endorse Me before the world because your faith is a living one which only the pure truth can achieve. And so I admonish you once more: don't reject My servants when they offer My Word to you. I Myself impart upon you the most valuable gift of grace, the eternal truth, because only through truth can you become blissfully happy ....

Amen

Think not earthly .... admonition of God to take up His word more often ....

B.D. 4645 from May 19th 1949, taken from Book No. 53

Move all My words in your heart, think about them and pay attention to the feeling they give you, and then want to do the right thing and live to please Me, and you will derive the right benefit from My word, you will have spiritual and earthly blessings and progress in your development. I cannot give you any better advice than to accept My word as often as it is possible for you. Then earthly life will no longer cause you any difficulties, for as soon as you occupy yourselves more with the spiritual, as soon as you live more with Me, earthly life will go by your side, hardly burdening you and mastered by an invisible hand; you certainly live on earth but are not unusually burdened. Try it, use every opportunity to hear or read My word, and then consider what you have heard, let Me speak to you lovingly by giving Me an ear when I want to speak to you. Every thought of accepting spiritual knowledge offered by Me is a hint from My love which I give to you in order to promote your development. And you must pay attention to this, even if you lack time, for I can very well also extend the time if it is necessary, and the short span of time you sacrifice to Me will never be lost, but far more likely a great spiritual gain for you. Again and again I say to you, don't think earthly .... For the advantage you gain from it is again only earthly and therefore not lasting. But what you create and acquire spiritually is extremely valuable for eternity. But one day your earthly life will be over, one day the way you have used your earthly life will have an effect, the work you have done when your vitality was at your disposal. And then you will be blessed to possess a supply of spiritual possessions, and so that you will constantly increase them I admonish you again and again and call upon you to take My admonitions seriously and to receive My word from above more often, because it is the most precious gift I can bestow upon you and because it has an extremely beneficial influence on you. Let Me speak to you and ponder My words in your heart, and your earthly life will be a peaceful one, richly blessed by Me ....

Amen

A reminder to accept the divine Word ....

B.D. 5488 from September 16th 1952, taken from Book No. 60

Do not close yourselves off to divine words of love which should touch you with inconceivable force and which you reject because you do not want to believe that God reveals Himself. In a time of complete darkness on earth He Himself appears extraordinarily in order to draw people's attention to the great spiritual misery. He addresses people personally by using a human being who, as a mediator between God and people, is willing to receive His Word and pass it on. You humans should not reject this Word of His, you should listen to it, consider it and take a stand on it, you should accept the possibility that God Himself wants to speak to you and not reject it unless you are fully convinced that it is bad which, however, is never possible with the Word conveyed to you from above, which touches every person of good will beneficially. His Word emanates a gentle light, it is full of love and wisdom, and the listener quietly feels drawn to the original source of love, to God, Who addresses the one through His Word so that the human being is bound to recognize Him. And anyone of good will won’t be able to avoid this impression, because God Himself is the Word and thus also radiates something divine to the human being. Only the good will is required of you humans, the divine Word then will also have an effect on you and you will recognize His revelations in it. He wants to reveal Himself to you humans so that it will become light in you, for the light emanates from Himself, and if you live in the light nothing can happen to you anymore. But you still live in darkness and do not recognize the danger you are in .... You are still completely ignorant and therefore also take wrong paths which lead away from God to your own ruin.

You are in great spiritual adversity and will perish in it if you don't accept God's help, Who wants to inform you through His Word so that you will choose the path which leads to beatitude, to eternal life, whereas you previously took the path of death. Don't close yourselves off from the divine Word, listen to it with good will and accept it as an extraordinary gift of grace from God which shall save you from eternal ruin ....

Amen

Serious reminder to accept the divine word ....

B.D. 5837 from December 27th 1953, taken from Book No. 63

You should not lightly reject what is given to you by Me, for it is a most precious gift and one day you will bitterly regret it when you have recognized it as the right means of help to ascend, which you spurned and therefore had to suffer. Accept the gift I offer you, don't be stubborn because the way of imparting it doesn't appeal to you or makes you doubt it .... accept it and examine it for its intrinsic value, and your heart will let you make the right judgment as soon as you are only willing to do what is right. Yet you harm yourselves beyond measure if you miss out on nourishment for your soul which strengthens you and lets you mature; nourishment which My love gives you because you are weak and miserable in your soul and because you cannot attain eternal life in this weakness. You are weakened beings as long as you live on earth without strengthening from heaven .... I alone can impart to you that which strengthens your soul and helps it to ascend .... You must receive the nourishment for your soul from My hand; it cannot be given to you by people on earth who do not possess it themselves .... But if they are in possession of this delicious food themselves, you will also recognize that it is the same food I offer you from above. There is only one thing that can be offered to you as food from heaven .... My word, which always and forever remains unchanging, which comes forth from Me in all purity and has to be received by you humans with desire and gratitude if it is to have its full strengthening effect .... And therefore you should receive it directly from Me, you should draw the refreshing water of life from the source of life, you should not close yourselves off if it also wants to penetrate your hearts, for you should know and appreciate that it is My direct address, that the connection from Me to you is established through My word .... You should appreciate this unusual gift of grace. But how empty you will end up if you reject this precious gift, if you believe that you can find a substitute elsewhere, if you exchange My gift for worthless spiritual knowledge from which you cannot draw any strength and which is completely worthless for the maturity of your soul .... Keep to My word alone, open your heart wide when I speak to you, when My gift from heaven is imparted to you, and let Me warn you to thoughtlessly reject what can never be replaced for you if you have entered the kingdom of the beyond in spiritual adversity. Recognize Me and My immense love for you when I Myself descend to you in the word and believe that I only want to help you, that I want to remedy your weakness and hardship on earth already and one day in the spiritual kingdom ....

Amen

Exhortations to faith

Reassuring advice to have faith ....

B.D. 3802 from June 16th 1946, taken from Book No. 48

You are so timid and fearful and yet could be so strong with firm faith in Me and My willingness to help .... Nothing is impossible, for My power accomplishes everything, and even seemingly impossible help can be granted to you if only you have faith. And therefore you need not be deterred by anything, you need not let hardship nor worry discourage you once you hand them over to Me in firm belief of My love and omnipotence .... Then I will help you and even solve the most difficult earthly problem .... For I will not leave My Own and will be their helper in every adversity and peril. Where else should My love and power express Itself, if not to those who strive towards Me of their own accord, and with the love of a child put their trust in the Father to help them in every hardship? .... Where else should the strength of faith be applied if not to those who are My true children, because they acknowledge and love Me and always try to fulfil My will?

When you speak of God’s greater than great love, then it will surely extend to His living creations, for love takes hold of everything and desires unification. And thus, the Father’s heart, too, moves towards His children and wants to give them unlimited love in order to please them now and eternally. The Father’s love expresses itself in never-ending helpfulness, in keeping every danger at bay, in giving the child profound wisdom and knowledge .... But the child has to accept its Father’s gifts without resistance, then it will mature and hold on to its Father with heartfelt love and be indescribably happy.

Would you then be able to experience any kind of adversity that could not be averted by the Father? Hence you should totally trust in Me and not become fearful when you are approached by hardship due to My permission or My will ....

I want to test and fortify your faith so that it will become increasingly more steadfast, and the less you fail the closer I will be to you, for I will never leave you again once you have found Me. And whatever happens, it will be good for you, for you truly do not recognise the urgency and purpose of your earthly fate. But I know how you can be helped best, and you can unreservedly trust in My guidance, you need not fear for a moment but always just take refuge in My love which will never be withdrawn from you again. Believe firmly and steadfastly that I will help you .... and My help will not fail to materialise, so that you will clearly recognise the strength of faith, so that you will feel Me and My activity, and as My children join Me ever more intimately until nothing will be able to separate you from the Father’s heart, no matter what goes on around you .... And therefore you can look forward to every day with complete confidence, and you should even believe firmly when you sense great unrest around you, for you will banish every threatening adversity through your faith, as I have promised, that strength of faith will be able to do everything .... that nothing is impossible for God ....

Amen

Exhortation to living faith .... thoughts ....

B.D. 4749 from September 29th 1949, taken from Book No. 54

And thus the voice of the lord speaks to you who take notice of His word through His servants on earth: '

"Nothing is hidden from Me, even your thoughts are revealed to Me, and I judge you according to these thoughts". Your innermost thoughts are known to Me and therefore it is pointless to try to deceive Me with words. Your heart betrays you, even though your mouth speaks differently. I want to make you eye and ear witnesses of the last event on this earth; I want you to then stand firm in faith, and I therefore prepare you for the coming time. And now it is up to you what you take from My word. I only want to draw your attention to the fact that you may only hope for My help by believing in Me, for at the end of the time on this earth only the believer will keep his life, while the unbeliever will find death, but this refers to the death of the spirit, the state of being banished into form. Thus I demand faith in order to be able to help you, and I am not satisfied with merely professing faith with the mouth. I know every thought and therefore you cannot deceive Me. My love certainly wants to help you, yet you reject My love which comes to you in the form of My word, for you do not accept My word and therefore not Me Myself either. And thus your fate is sealed, for My adversary gains power over you because your will does not resist him and because you do not accept the strength of resistance from Me which you could always receive through My word. And thus I call out to you once again: Look within yourselves, try to gain living faith, make contact with Me and draw strength from Me which you need in order to persevere until the end. And bear in mind that I know everything about your will, about your weakness of faith and also about your lack of loving activity. Yet if only you turn your will towards Me I will help you and save you from certain ruin; I will give you strength so that you will attain the right faith, so that I can save you from the night of death ....

Amen

Admonition to constant connection with God ....

B.D. 7772 from December 14th 1960, taken from Book No. 81

So first of all strive to supply your soul with the right nourishment so that it does not need to starve while the body is abundantly provided for. Therefore strive so that I Myself can give it the food, so that I can water it with the water of life. And know that you don't have much time left but that you can still provide your soul with much nourishment if only you unite with Me daily and ask Me to take care of you in earthly and spiritual adversity .... You should only find the path to Me and then you can also be certain that I will not leave you, no matter what may come .... And a time will come upon you when you will need much strength and can receive it daily if you make sure that I Myself feed and water your souls .... if you let Me speak to you, that I distribute the bread of heaven to you and you now become strong in spirit .... I can only speak to you if you unite with Me, but then I can also send you strength and you will let everything come to you without fear and anxiety and only ever trust in Me. Again and again I say to you: Maintain the connection with Me, don't detach yourselves from Me, always let Me be the content of your thoughts .... And you will truly feel the blessing of it, nothing will particularly affect you which could weaken you, for you possess the strength from Me which lets you endure and overcome everything. But if you let your soul live in want, if you only pay attention to the body's desire, you will soon become weak and anxious, then your body will also have to endure all adversity which affects you. The soul needs nourishment, it shall still mature in the short time of earthly life, and it can also do so if I Myself can administer the nourishment to it, if you come to Me yourselves and appeal to Me for food and drink .... if again and again you desire to hear My word and now truly provide the soul with the right nourishment. For I keep telling you again and again: You don't have much time left .... The end is coming ever closer, no matter how improbable it may seem to you .... The signs are so obvious if only you look at the spiritual low of people who live unbelievingly and completely earthly minded and don't think of their souls because they don't believe in the soul's continuation of life after death .... These people are in the majority, because even people who want to be 'christians' do not have this belief and therefore do not care for their souls. And this spiritual low also irrevocably entails the end of the earth where a separation of spirits will now take place .... And therefore I admonish you again and again to make good use of the short time you humans still have until the end .... And 'to make good use of it' means to give the soul what it needs to mature: food and drink, the nourishment which I Myself offer it through My word .... ‘To make use of it' means that you humans immerse yourselves in My word, that you live according to this word on earth, that you fulfil My will, which is made known to you through My word .... And truly, you will not need to fear the end, you will come to life which you will never lose again for ever ...._>Amen
