I reproduce some of the questions in shortened form, and the answers make no claim whatsoever to completeness, since questions concerning spiritual life can never be illuminated comprehensively and on every level of understanding. I publish them for the benefit of all with the permission of the brothers and sisters. The glimpses into the demonic world may seem strange, yet they show which beings in the soul-realms of the beyond are responsible for illnesses and troubles of every kind.
Church – Faith
Dear Samuel, is the rosary prayer in the Catholic Church, in the form in which it is practiced, really willed by God? I rather suspect not, because the focus is strongly directed toward Mary, who assumes a role of intercession in it, although from my point of view Jesus is the only mediator to God the Father. How do you see it?
Dear brother, our heavenly Father likes it best when we pray freely and childlike in our own words. If we use set prayers, then the Lord’s Prayer. But this too should and must be prayed with the heart; only then does it unfold its divine effect and power of love.
Just speak with Jesus as with a best friend, as with a brother, as with a father, entirely naturally and freely. That gives Him the greatest joy. And you can always speak with Him; with God there are no fixed office hours as there are with the mighty of the world. He is always there for us, full of joy when a child opens itself to Him, when a child pours out its heart and sincerely asks for His love.
Dear Samuel, I have long prayed as you described, freely, without various `formulas´ and so on. My question was more about an acquaintance and his wife, who attach great importance to the rosary and to repeated recitation of the same prayer wording. At least I have already sensed from the Spirit of God that this approach is actually not fitting.
How do you see Mary, who is used very strongly as a mediator in the rosary? From my point of view, that does not really seem fitting. From the perspective of some believers shaped by Catholicism, Mary appears about once every week at certain pilgrimage sites. Is that actually the case?
Dear brother, Mary does not want to be worshiped, which is why she rarely makes herself known; otherwise she would encourage her own worship. She once spoke through me and testified to her love for Jesus. She told of her pain at Jesus’ crucifixion. Her purity is wonderful, her humility unspeakable. Mary is therefore certainly a special soul. Jesus says that no one in heaven is as pure as she is. But at bottom we are all brothers and sisters, created from God’s love, each with entirely individual talents and tasks—Mary as well.
Unfortunately, in many messages in which supposed inhabitants of the stars or heavens make themselves known, what is actually at work are spirits of pride and lying from the lower spheres—or the words come from the recipients’ own soul-nature. With so-called `ascended masters´ one can be certain that one or the other is the case.
Archangels, apostles, or Mary actually speak only rarely. And with more than one recipient of words from the Father, disguising spirits sometimes make themselves known as well.

Hello Samuel, two questions. First: Is there any church recognition of the works of the New Revelation (Swedenborg, Lorber, Mayerhofer, Böhme, and others), and if not, should we initiate an examination procedure for them?
Second: friends of mine changed their denominational affiliation from Roman Catholicism to the Old Catholic or Christian Catholic Church. They argue from the decline of the Roman Catholic Church and from its non-recognition of the New Revelations, even though private revelations as such—(almost!) without consequences for the doctrinal structure of the Church—are recognized as known phenomena and are not regarded a priori as doubtful. They also find that in the Christian Catholic Church women are regarded as equal in value and equal in rights to men, which is why female priesthood also exists there. They answer the reference to the one Church expected on the new Earth by pointing out that the Old Catholic Church goes back to early Christianity and is therefore more legitimately suited to become the new Church on the new Earth.
In addition, there are other prophecies saying that on the new Earth there will be only one Church, without denominational division. This would arise out of the Roman Catholic Church. The Pope would no longer appear as the so-called representative of God, but as the head, as Peter was then. Does Jesus in His mercy have useful guidance for us toward a better understanding?
Dear brother, first: Church recognition—what is that, and what use is it supposed to be? The Church is not an authority; as an institution and organization it is a tool of the Antichrist. They are supposed to examine the Word of God? The Word of God examines itself in every person’s heart, where it also becomes alive in action. The divine vitality that emerges from this is the certificate of truth.
Second: The Church of the Kingdom of Peace is made up of the people who love Jesus Christ. There will no longer be a pope. Every person who realizes Jesus Christ within himself is a representative of God on Earth. For general spiritual instruction there will be chosen apostles whose task is to preserve divine order and reveal Jesus Christ, for not all people will live with equal awareness in His presence. Read again in `Ein Crash mit Höchstgeschwindigkeit gegen eine Wand aus Licht und Liebe´ the chapter “Die neue Erde … Zukunftsbilder …”.

Dear Samuel, because of cases of abuse in the Catholic Church in Switzerland, `progressive´ forces want to impose the spirit of the age on the faith. Except for the issue of women in the priesthood, Jesus’ word in Lorber opposes all of it. I found nothing on women in the priesthood. My inner voice rejects it as well, based on the creation story of Eve and the division of roles between man and woman. But I am uncertain whether Jesus is really `speaking´ within me or whether tradition is fooling me.
My question: Does Jesus approve of women in the priesthood (for the Catholic Church)?
Dear brother, Jesus says that the priesthood should be reserved mainly for men. But this in no way devalues woman; she is quiet love, she is the priestess of the heart, she is the bride of Christ who carries the Word in her heart with the power of humility. Outward leadership is entrusted to the man; the quiet inward leadership to the woman. Which is likely to be more powerful?

Dear Samuel, while searching for the film `The Christ in you – the Voice´ I came across another film. It is called `The last Reformation: The Life´. Do you know that one too? What do you think of this way of receiving the Holy Spirit?
Dear brother, many thanks for the film, which impressed me deeply and moved me to tears in places. One sees very well in it that the Spirit of Jesus Christ pays no attention to forms but looks only at the motive and the heart. The human shell, or rather the human-made shell and formality, plays no role; the Spirit simply passes through it and works.
There are, however, charismatic movements that in their fanaticism invite evil spirits. Then grotesque performances take place when the `Holy Spirit´ enters, though in truth this is demonic possession. At times it looks like epileptic seizures, screaming and raging, distorted faces and grimaces. The whole thing appears repellent and also disgusting.
But when people, as shown in this film, murmur incomprehensible mantras in love for Jesus Christ, He ignores that, for it is divine love that bears witness to itself here, and that comes through clearly in the video. Yet the spiritual high of awakening often passes away again and the person eventually lives only in the echo of what happened, until through his acts of love he gives the Spirit lasting vitality within himself. Only then, in the further course, does an actual spiritual rebirth take place. For what is called rebirth in the Spirit in charismatic events is usually `only´ a brief divine touch. And yet, as already mentioned, the event is a good beginning, for it can build a bridge to the divine Spirit.
We called and found children of God do not need this kind of awakening/filling, for our love for our heavenly Father fills us continually and then permanently—if we consistently remain close to Him.
I regard a water baptism corresponding to the spiritual one as good, because this symbolic act strengthens the soul in faith and surrender. Then there is also the question of whether one should simply approach people on the street and ask whether they are in pain or ill and whether Jesus or the Holy Spirit should heal them. Here too the motive plays a decisive role. Do I sense a divine commission within me, in the sense that my heart leads me out into public to bring people to Jesus? Then it is good and right, for here the end clearly sanctifies the means, just as in charismatic laying on of hands.
I would definitely recommend the film further, together with the explanation given here.

Hello Samuel, I mostly associate with free-church Christians, but with them you often have to be careful what you say. I used to be at the Bieberauer Schule and the Hujetsmühle community. There was a child of the Word there; he is said to have been a disciple of Jesus 2,000 years ago. I can well imagine it. But then he fell very deeply and even doubted Jesus.
The former members of the school live according to early-Christian principles in Spain, but there are not many of them anymore, and the second generation does not really follow the whole thing. They are more esoteric/psychological in orientation: A Course in Miracles, Hellinger, Brandon Bays. Because I often did not do what they advised me, they withdrew from me. There is also a certain hierarchy there, and I was too critical—at least that is how I perceived it. They try to live well in everyday life. Do you have a sense of whether Jesus is at work there? Do you also receive words from the Father for brothers and sisters?
Dear brother, when one lives in Jesus’ presence, one can also accept esotericism as spiritual material and take something from it. If one is not in fellowship with Jesus, the spirit of esotericism leads one astray and easily into the labyrinth of the proud intellect. Therefore I advise holding entirely to Jesus Christ.
With called bearers of words from the Father who have a general commission, it is indeed the case that because of this they must be very sensitive and finely perceptive, and are therefore susceptible to influence and attack from the beyond. If they step out of Jesus’ presence and protection, they quickly go astray in their thinking, for the satanic powers are only waiting to bring down the called and chosen.
I receive personal words from the Father rather rarely. Words from the Father are not a request program and do not serve spiritual self-gratification. And actually our heavenly Father wants to speak Himself to all His children in their hearts.
Turn inward in love for Jesus Christ, become still, and imagine that He is standing before you with outstretched arms and an open heart. Then you go close to Him and you embrace each other intimately. After that, listen to your thoughts that arise from this shared love. That is the word of your heavenly Father. If you practice this regularly, your heart will become clearer and will overflow with love for Jesus.
This practice already has a certain reality in the spiritual world. The more awake you become in love, the more real and living your inner world becomes, and thereby Jesus Christ within you and thus His Word. Do this—your heavenly Father tells you so.

Dear Samuel, could you perhaps shed light for us on the subject of `stigmatization´? Surely it has to be viewed in a very differentiated way, since there were different characters who showed such signs, or it was later found that they were said to have inflicted them on themselves. How should these signs be judged in the cases of Therese von Konnersreuth, Padre Pio, and Anna Katharina Emmerich, to whom hysteria and fraud can surely not be imputed?
Through the power of thought in interaction with identification with Christ’s suffering—which is very intense in people shaped by Catholicism—the soul’s co-suffering can indeed lead to a material manifestation of the wounds of Jesus Christ. For especially in the realm of faith, forces arise that can bring about extraordinary phenomena.
Is this willed by God? No; it is permitted, it is not prevented. And since our heavenly Father creates and brings forth good from every event sooner or later, the permission becomes an act of divine revelation and a testimony to God’s love. The event therefore enters into the divine will and emerges from it again as a perfect act in the sense of the redemptive process of this creation.
The stigmata are therefore at first an (unconscious) act of self-will or a self-inducement by the respective believers, but they become a sign of truth because the divine Spirit rests and works in the innermost depth of every process; otherwise there could be no universal process of redemption and no individual one either.
Of course there are also fraud and falsifications, but in these the divine Spirit dwells as judgment and not as a revealer of Jesus’ love. The basis of every judgment is of course also love, though at first with a different effect—namely in divine lawfulness and not in fatherly mercy.
In the cases of Therese Neumann, Padre Pio, and Anna Katharina Emmerich, they were indeed real phenomena. These souls carry a special character of suffering within them. They also testify that the body of Jesus Christ still suffers. Here the body of Christ means the souls of the chosen ones of this end time, who together form His body, through which and in which He now returns to establish His Kingdom of Peace and love.
“Why is this body full of blood and wounds?” I asked Jesus. He said that the souls of His children still carry serious injuries within them in part, arising from their enslavement and attachment to matter, which they do not let go of. Above all this obstructs and prevents their free love for Him, and thereby also keeps them from carrying out their divine commission.
He goes on to say: “My children suffer and bleed: their hands—their spiritual giving; their feet—their progress; their forehead—their thoughts; their hearts—their love—are full of painful wounds. Thus the souls of many of My called and chosen ones are nailed to the cross of matter, and this in turn is My suffering on the cross as loving Father.
My children, the battle for your souls is raging; there is a back-and-forth around you and within you. Not a few are in danger of being lost in their imagined weakness because they do not give Me the necessary space within themselves so that I may enter powerfully to save and sanctify My own.
I cannot force you, but recognize the time, recognize your distress, recognize the importance of your earthly existence; for you did not come to lie at the feet of the world and serve it, but to reveal My heart and serve Me. Therefore enter into your hearts, where I await you full of longing and with the power of redemption from death, so that you may rise in Me. Amen.”

The Deceased
Dear Samuel, I am just reading your new book, where in the introductory words you ask for the names of people who died by suicide.
It must have been 20 years ago when my employee Roman S. took sleeping pills and put a plastic bag over his head. He was a kindhearted and well-liked person. But his psychological problems kept catching up with him, and so at the age of 50 he took his own life, as all the men in his family had done. If you and I, with the help of Jesus Christ, can do something for him, that would make me very glad. I will pray for him too.
Dear brother, when many people in a family or extended family take their own lives, one can always assume an influence from the beyond, usually from one’s own ancestral lines. Dramas are therefore unfolding here in two worlds.
Why and through what does something like this happen? The deceased person or persons attach themselves with their desperate consciousness to their descendants, cling to their souls, and draw them into the darkness of their despair and distress, which may even have arisen through their own self-killing.
At times people with a permeable soul-constitution and goodwill are affected by such an overshadowing or possession, qualities that dwell within them because of a prenatal preparation for becoming children of God. But if they nevertheless do not find true faith, they know and possess no means of defending themselves against the darkness—or they do not know what is actually happening in their sphere. Thus their light shining into the darkness harms them, inviting and attracting the searching and desperate souls among their relatives.
If the affected person had true faith and love for Jesus Christ, such a sad occupation and influence would still be possible, but it would be an act of comprehensive redemption rather than one of despair and suicide.
I will bring both Roman and the other people in this family and ancestral line who died by suicide to Jesus, lay them upon His heart, and ask Him to send His angels to bring about relief from distress and liberation. For with God all things are possible; in God’s wisdom-filled mercy there are always possibilities and paths for breaking open what has hardened, opening ways by which a process of redemption can be set in motion.
This raises the question for some: “Why does the Father not intervene Himself? Surely He does not need us for that!”
No, He does not need us. But first, certain permissions and processes of redemption are directed toward a special purpose extending far into eternity; and second, our heavenly Father wants to work, redeem, and liberate together with us, both in the small scale of the human being and in the great scale of creation. For through His divine working within us and through us, He becomes alive in us, a divine unity arises, and the love of all hearts is brought together into one flame of redemption and bliss in Jesus Christ.

Dear Samuel, in your book `Offenbarungen aus dem Gottesgeist´ you point out that Jesus entrusted you with the task of naming to Him people who died by suicide and laying them upon His heart, through which they experience great grace and liberation.
My mother’s brother died by suicide on January 9, 1955. He was found in a garden greenhouse and it turned out that he had drunk agricultural poison. His name was Wernie; he was born on August 7, 1934. He had long had psychological problems and difficulties with social contact and kept withdrawing. As a child he could sit in a tree for hours. Would it be possible for you to present this suicide to Jesus?
Dear brother, today I was able to pray for Wernie. My heart became very warm and I was permitted to feel Jesus’ love for him. I see Wernie opening himself to a new life; he is now being led home, Jesus is taking care of him. All despair is gone; he looks up, upward into the light, his heart opens, his face is relaxed and expectant. At last he is permitted to become free of every burden—it is so beautiful to see. Dear brother, I am weeping for joy.

Hello Samuel, unfortunately a former schoolmate and friend of our son hanged himself a week ago. I ask you to seek help for his soul from our dear Lord Jesus. His name is Thomas. I have another question concerning a friend. She tried to take her own life but, thanks be to God, her husband found her in time. What else can we do besides pray for her?
Dear brother, come before Jesus Christ hand in hand with these people. He is standing there, His heart shining brightly and radiating; He is full of love for you, and also for Thomas and the friend. Now go with them directly before Jesus and place their hands into Jesus’ receiving hands.
Then say: “Dear Jesus, in humility we bring these two to You, for only You can help them and heal their souls. So we ask You: let grace prevail over justice and take them into the ray of Your mercy. From now on be their Savior and guide through their further existence. Brighten their hearts by directing the ray of light from Your heart upon them. Dear Father, be gracious to them and to us sinners. Dear Father, place Your power and strength into our weak petitions and our weak faith so that redemption may take place. Yes, we now believe that You will work here, our Savior and Redeemer. Thank You, Father.”

Dear Samuel, since reading your books I have made it my practice to send the love for Jesus from my heart toward the souls of the deceased whom I encounter in the cemetery. Many reacted very positively to it, but when I later arrived home, many souls had come along with me. It took effort to send them into the light. That same week I was at a memorial service in church and once again had to experience that some of the deceased had not yet found their way in the beyond. A woman whom I had known very well was completely stuck because of her strong devotion to Mary.
I have several questions about this: Am I seeing this correctly, and how can I help the deceased better? I have often tried to point out to people that the cult of Mary is exaggerated and that the way to Jesus is the only right one. Is it really so difficult for Catholics to enter heaven? I know that you distance yourself from the cult of Mary, and I do as well, but Catholic souls still have to be helped onto the right path.
Dear sister, you are doing a good work by instructing deceased souls, and because you feel driven to do so, the Father has placed this need of love into your heart. But when you say to the souls, “Go into the light,” they cannot do much with that, for they see no light except yours. So they go with you, and not infrequently one cannot get rid of them again.
Tell them about Jesus Christ; tell them that He is God and that they should call upon His name. Tell them that He alone has the power of redemption and that He loves them. He and His angels will lead them into bright regions where there is nourishment and warmth. Ask Jesus as well to protect you in intercessory prayer and instruction, because otherwise the deceased attach themselves to you with the weight of their pride, despair, or falseness and oppress you with it.

Greetings in God’s name, dear brother Samuel. The husband of one of my daughter’s coworkers became ill in December, and his path of suffering lasted until this February 2023. During that time there were moments when it looked as though he would recover, and moments when the doctors said that only prayer could help now. My daughter told me about it, suffered with them, and asked me to pray to Jesus for the man. I did so intensely and over that time had an intense connection with Jesus and the angels. On the night when this man died, he came to me to thank me and say goodbye.
His wife was very worried because she did not know how things would continue without him, with the two girls and the debts. By now she knows that his pension gives her financial security, and life is now being enjoyed to the full. They had always had a tendency toward excessive consumption, but her husband often held her back, so now she is enjoying her `freedom´ twice over.
I would very much like to know from you what advice she now receives from Jesus. Does her deceased husband want to tell her something? I would like to try to prevent her, who otherwise also lived in faith in God, from now losing her footing completely. Because of what happened and the death of her husband, she no longer believes in God, since He did not keep him alive despite all the prayers and efforts.
Dear brother, your daughter’s friend is using her husband’s death as an alibi to indulge in the world. At the same time it is her `revenge´ on God, ignoring Him now. This can also be an unconscious process. She has now entered a current in which the numbing the world gives her has become an addiction. Her love is now bound to matter. It will take a greater blow to bring about a change.
Her husband’s death came suddenly after a relatively short period of suffering. This points to a deliberate calling-away that was necessary for him and also for his wife, in order to free her from shallow faith and then, in the further course of her life, lead her back to God—onto a firm spiritual foundation. For the previous one was and is without support, as you now see. Her free will is not touched in this process, however, which is why her path of destiny also contains the danger of becoming lost. That is why your intercessory prayer is important and necessary.
What happened and what is happening now is therefore good when seen with God’s eyes. In everything that appears evil there is always a divine core hidden within it, a path of redemption, divine love and mercy. For what follows you need patience and trust and the readiness to serve love at any time, which in any case is the longing of your heart.

Dear Samuel, today I would like to raise a subject that has concerned me for quite some time. We live in a former monastery. Apartments were built in the building in 2003. Diagonally opposite, on the other side of the street not far away, is a cemetery. Our apartment is in the former monastery chapel.
There are strange phenomena here: twice the music from the hi-fi system in the living room stopped when a rotary knob spontaneously turned. The cleaning program of the printer in the living room switched itself on spontaneously several times at night. Once I was standing in front of the sink when, behind my back, the toilet roll fell down, rolled across the floor, and then came to rest standing upright. At night there were knocking sounds from the bathroom.
Recently my mother told me that a figure stood by her bed, introduced herself as Susanne, and then disappeared into the bathroom. When my mother goes into the bathroom, she often comes out completely exhausted. She regularly has attacks of exhaustion without any apparent cause. She then whispers, “M., help me,” moves restlessly in her chair, and is as though in a half-trance. Afterwards she cannot remember anything. My mother is very sensitive, and an attack of exhaustion takes a great toll on her. Could you perhaps help, Samuel?
Dear brother, it is clear that deceased souls come and go in your home or live there—or better said, you live with them, for they were there before you. They do not really intend you any harm, but want to communicate in the way available to them. And yet they harm permeable people such as your mother, because they enter into them and feed on their light, their life-energy, which is why she is so exhausted.
You are believing Christians, which means that the whole situation lies in God’s hand and heart. If you were godless worldly people, Jesus Christ could not intervene and the possessions would lead to illness and suffering. But here it is different, and comprehensive redemption of earthbound souls is possible, which is also the reason our heavenly Father has permitted this situation. This means that you must now manifest Jesus’ presence more strongly in your home and, together with Him, work upon the deluded and blind souls so that they leave this place. At first, however, they will not do so; indeed, they will resist decisively and initially stir up an even greater commotion.
Faith that the Spirit of Jesus Christ is with you in order to bring about redemption there must be firm faith, must be unshakable. For it is His will that liberation take place among you. He makes Himself available, He is ready, but you too must be ready through trusting love for Him.
Twice a day connect yourselves firmly in your hearts with Jesus’ heart, and then speak the words of instruction to the souls that the heavenly Father gives you. They will be roughly along these lines: explain to the souls that they have long since died and that your home is not their true dwelling place. Tell them that Jesus Christ is their God and Redeemer and that He alone can help them onward and make them happy. For now great grace has come to them, now is a time of grace—but soon this door will close. Therefore they should use this opportunity and let Jesus Christ into their lives. He is full of love and ready to accept and receive them as His children. Be aware as you do this that the room is full of deceased people, for at Jesus’ command souls from the nearby cemetery are also being led in. Afterwards ask Jesus for protection, that He may deny the souls further access to you and lead them onward to their appointed place. If you do this over a longer period, a process of redemption is set in motion through which many earthbound souls are freed and led to their spiritual homeland.
That is lived and living faith; it is also grace for you to be permitted to work here together with Jesus. In spirit I am with you and helping. Warm greetings and Jesus’ blessing are sent to you by Samuel.

Dear Samuel, I have a question that has concerned me for a very long time: Are there more precise instructions from God the Father/Jesus Christ on how one should behave when a relative dies? I mean, for example, regarding the length of the lying-in-state before burial. Ever since my mother’s death I have repeatedly had concerns about apparent death. My mother died within a few hours after being admitted to the hospital. She was then taken to a side room, where we were able to say goodbye to her. We were with her for only a few hours. I keep wondering whether I should have stayed with her longer. Her soul was still there.
In the past, the deceased were laid out at home. Surely that is a more beautiful environment for the soul than the cold room in the hospital. And I hardly dare think about the possibility of apparent death. Under some circumstances it may not be all that rare.
Do you know the term anabiosis? According to some reports, it is a state resembling apparent death from which apparently deceased people can awaken with proper care, healed and also spiritually further developed. This would explain the meaning and purpose of the old spherical houses and dolmens. It is also mentioned that rigor mortis is often a regenerative rigidity in which the body can regenerate again within a certain period and under certain circumstances.
For a time, especially after my mother’s death, I occupied myself very intensely with the subject of `death and apparent death´ and read in numerous reports that no doctor and no medical device can establish a person’s death with 100 percent certainty. The only sure proof is the formation of postmortem lividity and the smell of decomposition. I could not see such spots on my mother while we were with her. What if she was not dead, but only apparently dead? I hardly dare think about it.
Now I have been sent a text by Jakob Lorber in which Jesus addresses the subject of apparent death and instructs us about it:
“When all had spoken this before Me, Agrikola came to Me as well and said: `Lord and Master, among us Romans the bodies, especially those of distinguished people, are cremated and the ashes then kept in certain urns and jars at places and sites appointed for this purpose, or the bodies of high-ranking lords are embalmed and then kept in the catacombs; only the very poor people and slaves are buried in the well-enclosed places designated for this. Is this to be left as it is or changed? What do You say about cremating and embalming bodies?´
I said: `If you cannot change it, then keep the old custom. But cremation is still better than embalming, by which the process of decomposition is greatly delayed; yet a proper burial of the body is best. Only care should be taken that a body is buried only when it is completely dead, which a doctor must surely be able to judge from the color of the face and the foul smell of decomposition; for in those who are apparently dead, the actual signs of death do not appear. Therefore they should not be buried until they can recognizably be seen to be fully dead.
A perfect person will of course never fall into apparent death; but the material and pleasure-addicted person easily may, because his soul often clings with too great a love to its flesh. Even if such a person becomes cold, rigid, without breath or pulse and gives no sign of life, the soul is nevertheless still in the body and anxiously strives to revive it, which after a few days it usually succeeds in doing. But if such a person is buried in the earth too soon and then becomes alive again in the body while in the grave, you can well imagine that this must produce for him, even if only for a few moments, a state of certainly utmost desperation. But if you live according to My teaching, in which above all love of neighbor is to be cultivated among you, then this too belongs very much to an act of true love of neighbor: that you take good care that no one who is only apparently dead is buried or cremated. If you notice that someone lies in apparent death, bring him into a room with good fresh air, pray over him, and lay your hands upon him, and he will improve.
Should some person’s apparent death be more persistent, then have patience and do not regard him as dead until the true signs of death begin to show clearly upon him. For whatever you would certainly wish people to do for you if you fell into such a state, which is always a sad one, do the same for them. Remember this especially, you Romans! For among you no special care is taken with the burial of deceased poor people and slaves—and I have now called your attention to it.´
When the Romans heard this from Me, they thanked Me for calling their attention to it and promised Me that they would exercise every conceivable care.”
Very interesting, what Jesus says here about apparent death. Perhaps we have done some things wrong with our deceased in the past? Jesus wants us to make sure that no one who is only apparently dead is buried. But how can the bereaved judge that? How do we put His will into practice if someone dies, for example, in a hospital? Relatives do have the opportunity there to say goodbye to the deceased, but they probably do not witness the time until the true signs of death can be recognized, or else, as I was when my mother died, they are completely ignorant about it. After the relatives have said goodbye, the deceased is taken into cold storage, and I hardly dare think about what may sometimes happen there. But even when people die at home, nowadays the funeral home takes them away very quickly if the relatives request it. That cannot be God’s will. But then how should one behave correctly when a person dies? Today all of this is not so simple. This is a subject that gives me no peace.
Dear Samuel, is it possible for you to ask God the Father/Jesus Christ about this subject and request His clarifying answer?
Dear sister, reports about apparent death or anabiosis do provide information, but they also have the potential to put people into unfounded worry and fear. Apparent death does occur again and again, and in today’s time, when people are so in love with their bodies, naturally somewhat more often—but only when the soul clings to the body and tries by every means to get back into it, as Jesus tells us through Jakob Lorber. Yet in relation to the approximately 150,000-200,000 deaths that occur worldwide each day, there are relatively few cases of apparent death, for as a rule most materialists are immediately brought into `dwellings´ in the beyond corresponding to the state of their souls.
Occupying oneself too intensely and continually with the subject of apparent death and brooding over it is comparable to constant and primary preoccupation with antichristian topics concerning the satanic world order. Consciousness is imperceptibly permeated by fear and panic, thereby closing access to the luminous spiritual world. One becomes trapped in a vicious circle.
As a general rule, in the case of a death within the family I advise a two- to three-day laying-out in the home or, if possible, in a free church, as the anthroposophical Christian Community does, for example. Even in the case of death in a hospital or nursing home, one can ask for the deceased to be laid out at home and, if necessary, insist on it. This is also the recommendation of our heavenly Father.
In my birthplace in the Bavarian Forest, as children we often looked at the dead, who lay in open coffins in the mortuary for several days until burial. I always had a good feeling there and liked to stay for a longer time. In the more than one-hundred-year history of this place of laying-out there is not a single case of apparent death.
A laying-out is an act of saying goodbye, and reconciliation can also take place, for usually the soul is still present. It senses the forgiving or loving thoughts of those close to it. One should in any case offer an intercessory prayer. One can speak to those who have passed over and tell them that they have died, that they should let go of their bodies, and that they should now ask the heavenly Father in Jesus Christ to help them onward. With truly believing people this is of course not necessary.
It is true that with the right way of life there would actually be no death, but this is the case only with people who are completely spiritually reborn, of whom there are currently only a handful on this Earth. Otherwise bodily death is a necessary process corresponding to humanity’s present spiritual decline, because soul-substance fixed in the body must slowly be released by decomposition and returned to the soul—there is no other way.
Dear sister, you are a child of God and have entrusted your life and that of your loved ones to your heavenly Father. He does not want thoughts of apparent death to take you captive, for they come from the world of darkness and want to lead you away from the straight path.
Thus He speaks to you: “My daughter, see, I have indeed heard and answered your thoughts and prayers, even before you expressed them. What does that mean for you? It means that at My command angels cared for your mother when she left this world. For I have long known about your worry and fear today, and now I take them from you, since I gave you the impulse to ask My son how your mother fared after her passing. So know now that all is well, and from now on be free of this burden and thereby free in love for Me.
And to all I say: Know that I need children free of fear, both as concerns the fear that follows you regarding past events and the worry and fear about the future. Past and future are united in Me, who am a present God. I alone can free you from every fear, but for that you must lovingly connect and unite yourselves with Me—in and with your hearts, as I emphasize again and again.
This world is not your home. I am your home; My heart is heaven, where I await you with divine longing. O My children, trust your Father. How greatly I desire to show you My guiding and protecting power, but I can do so only if you open your hearts to Me, if you recognize My love, if you recognize Me in My innermost nature, which is humility and gentleness, which is divine creative power and most intimate fatherhood, which is love, love and love again. Amen.”

Antichristianism
Dear Samuel, in our discussion group the trends toward transhumanism were discussed. What remains open is how this will continue. We hope that Jesus, together with the heavenly powers, will still have something to say about it as well. One of the trends is toward a human-machine connection through implanted chips which, as it is euphemistically said, will raise human abilities to unimaginable heights thanks to artificial intelligence. Another reading is that human beings can thereby be remotely controlled, whether by algorithms or by other people.
My question: Is what can emerge from this in the extreme case still a human being at all, especially if there is also a coupling with the test-tube-baby idea? In principle, since such a being has been deprived of free will, it is on the level of animals, which act from instinct. Is such a being then nothing more than a lump of flesh that can serve the dark powers as an energy source and to maintain their power? What happens to the soul?
Dear brother, transhumanism and AI open so many possibilities to the satanic powers that it is difficult to give a blanket answer. In the divine sense they are then no longer human beings. But for the most part they are not now either, for they are already externally controlled and remotely directed by the media. Television and print media are the absolute instruments of manipulation, indoctrination, and power. Already now they ensure that antichristianism is defended, glorified, and worshiped by spiritless robot-humans trapped in the cage of externally controlled thought.
The difference from the evil deeds still ahead of us is that through genetic and technical intervention (implantation of frequency-controlled AI through vaccination, rewriting of the God-given genetic code), free will is ultimately to be completely disabled. The soul’s freedom of decision, which is the foundation and basic prerequisite for attaining childship of God, is undermined; the human being becomes a puppet, without the possibility of freeing himself from this captivity again, because access to the Spirit of God is then closed to him by satanic technology. Conscience will be an artificially implanted one, love a hypocritical one: a satanic reprogramming, injected like a drug. The result is a controllable human-machine, no more than an instinct-driven animal that is fed and entertained with bread and circuses, while the person believes he lives in freedom of thought.
If he nevertheless rebels, he is removed from the system of the new world order, something easily possible because of global centralization and the control dictatorship thereby enabled. In this way underground movements form with their own views and ways of life, in turn with differing spiritual/religious views, but also atheist groups that fight against the establishment. All these communities already exist, but they still move more or less within the system, which in the end will no longer be possible.
As for the question of the soul: the life of the soul itself cannot be destroyed, for the soul is immortal. But it can be so completely determined from outside or remotely controlled that free thought is no longer possible, which means permanent spiritual death. Humanity would therefore face an eternal imprisonment of the soul, in which it would have to serve the self-appointed elite as slaves and could be eliminated at any time. That is the plan.
Do the satanically programmed people notice what is happening to them? Most do not, just as most people are not aware of it even now, since the human masses are already in an advanced stage of the Antichrist’s indoctrination of the will. They are obedient to the media and blind and deaf to words of truth. They can no longer distinguish truth from lies. `They have ears and do not hear, they have eyes and do not see.´ They think they are alive, yet their souls are rigid, their minds locked in a cage.
There will also be experimental institutions and elimination camps, though they will not be called that. Organs will be removed there for the elite, but human beings will also be bred there and `animated´ by artificial intelligence, their soul-substance composed in such an ungodly way that true monsters arise. Such mostly underground facilities and experimental laboratories already exist in many parts of the world, where children and adults are abused and murdered for various reasons. Words cannot express the evil that takes place on this Earth. The blood of those so cruelly killed cries out to heaven.
The dreadful vision of the future presented here is in fact the plan of the Antichrist. And this raises the question: Will God allow all of it? To a certain degree. We are already in the midst of this process of total enslavement, in the final preliminary stage of general stupefaction, mental darkness, and delusion: the spiritual murder of humanity.
It is important to recognize this, to see what is happening in this lost and corrupt world and not close one’s eyes to the actual circumstances. Yet one should not and need not immerse oneself in it, unless one has the corresponding divine commission to combat this darkness spiritually. Then one can enter it with Jesus; then one has the power, might, and strength to do so.
The Father still permits many things so that reflection may occur. He permits distress so that people may find their way back to prayer. He sends out His angels as warners, both in the flesh and purely in spirit, who on the one hand loudly call people to repentance and openly proclaim truth, and on the other speak to people’s consciences. They are the forerunners of the Lord and they are the body of the Lord. Through them God proclaims the judgment human beings have brought upon themselves. But through them He also and above all offers redemption to people of good will. Every sinner is welcome to God. Amen, that is divine truth, for it was for sinners that He accomplished the work of redemption.
As a child of God one should, in any case, live in the awareness that one is protected from every danger to body and soul—always according to one’s trust in and love for our heavenly Father. He wants children who are free of fear; He wants to prove to us that He is a caring, faithful, and above all present Father who wishes to be with His children already during their earthly existence.

A brother writes after a report on the satanic practices of the so-called elite, in which, among other things, present-day cannibalism and Satanism in the Western world are exposed and described, including how children are abducted, tortured, and murdered:
This is so utterly perverse that words fail you. Whenever I hear something like this, I keep asking myself why Jesus allows such terrible suffering. And what kind of souls are these that incarnate here for a short time in order to undergo such dreadful experiences? If you die in agony, what state are you in on the other side? Perhaps Samuel can answer this.
Samuel: The Father gave the following word concerning this:
“My children, the atrocities of this Earth will soon come to their shameful end, for the rule of evil has lasted long enough. In My heart I have gathered the tears of the tortured; I have gathered the cries of tormented souls. The rivers of blood have flowed into My bloodstream and have united with My redeeming blood. This blood restored My mercy to the Earth 2,000 years ago when I bled on the cross—as a living sign that My blood, which is the content and outflow of the power of My love, penetrates this Earth and frees it from all evil.
Yes, in My heart I have prepared a place for those who have passed through undeserved suffering because of the voluntary wickedness of certain human beings who became the spawn and refuse of the devil and committed exceedingly cruel deeds over the course of the past 6,000 years.
Truly, there has never been such a shameful time as this since there have been times and eternities, and yet by this the foundation has been laid for a new heaven, in which My creatures have been and are being born as children of My love, to be gods themselves in eternity.
See, for all paths of suffering, which are comparatively brief, I have not only created a just compensation; I have made possible something that can happen only in the free will of all human existence: to bring forth gods like Me, who with Me act and create in the most intimate bliss of self-aware divine being throughout eternity. This required and still requires that, in complete freedom of will, degenerations arise and unspeakable atrocities can be committed, while I too, as Father-God, had to watch—and especially in this final time must watch—how greatly My creatures and children created from the love of My heart are tortured and most cruelly murdered by conscienceless tyrants.
Truly, the lot of these beasts will be unspeakably miserable; for them I have prepared places in which their deeds will be avenged upon them countless times. As the Godhead I am their merciless and eternal Judge; therefore do not judge them yourselves, but remain in My merciful fatherly love—and trust that I make right everything that has been committed on this Earth and will yet be committed.
Soon it will be over, My beloved, soon it will be accomplished, accomplished once again; just as the redemptive work of love was accomplished on the cross, so the liberating work of love will soon be accomplished on the cross of suffering of matter. Then the birth will have taken place, the rebirth and inward birth of this Earth into My Kingdom of Peace. I already gave this divine peace to the world in the holy night 2,000 years ago; this peace has been placed in your hearts, I have placed Myself in your souls and hearts.
Consider this at this hour, and warm My heart with the breath of your love, standing upon the ground of humility, of spiritual poverty, and of the joy that I am with you and remain with you in eternity. Amen, My children, Amen.”
Samuel: Yes, even in His own case Jesus allowed Himself, though innocent, to be tortured and murdered. Did the crucifixion truly have to happen to Him? Could He have accomplished the work of redemption and atonement in another way if people had not been so evil? Human sin requires atonement before the holiness of God. And yet the sacrifice of crucifixion would not have been absolutely necessary; there were other ways to the goal. But for the sake of human free will, the Father allowed it to happen.
Thus the inviolability of free will opens the door wide to evil deeds. God of course foresaw this. Yet there was and is no other way to bring forth and educate free children of God, not even for God. Only in the absolute freedom of the will of love can divine freedom in love be attained. But the Father, knowing this, made provision. He created causes and possible spheres of effect that, in the course of times and eternities, lead all life to the divine goal—three examples:
– Innocent children who are tortured, and adults who fall into excessive suffering, have a special soul structure and constitution with regard to the redemption process of satanic soul-substance.
– In the Third Reich, through persecution and murder, those Jewish souls were redeemed who cried at Jesus’ crucifixion: “His blood be upon us and upon our children!”
– Despotic rulers, cruel wars, and natural catastrophes lead proud nations into redeeming humility.
Thus divine perfection always underlies all paths of life. Since we live within God’s perfect realm of consciousness, the basis, the foundation of all being, must always be perfection, and in the end everything must arise and enter into perfection. The processes of becoming in between are always subject to a certain necessity, either a higher or a subordinate one. God Himself as a human being surrendered unconditionally to this necessity; thus the Son of Man Jesus became the God-man Jesus Christ and in Him finally became the Father again.
We know so little about life, suffering, and death and therefore repeatedly meet the Father with incomprehension. Yet He has fashioned all paths of life in such a way that through them a perfect creation-human ultimately comes into being, living in divine unity and freedom throughout eternity.
A brother adds: This is one of the few subjects on which I asked God the same question: How can He allow something like this? For me as the father of a little boy, there is nothing more terrible in the world than what is done to children. Although I do not receive an inner word, the answer came to me relatively clearly and quickly: there are certain souls in the beyond that prefer this brief earthly fate to suffering in the beyond. Dear Samuel, can that be so?
In addition: If we as human beings cannot bear something like this, how much more must our heavenly Father suffer with these poor children?
Yes, there are souls that consciously accept the brief and humiliating path of sacrifice in order, after being called home, to find the Father’s heart quickly. They do not run the risk of becoming so lost that in the beyond they must travel a long and arduous path of liberation, often lasting centuries and millennia, as is the case with many earthly human beings.
But above all they redeem an extraordinary portion of Satan’s soul: on the one hand according to the purification of the burden of their own soul structure, and on the other through the long-term opening of the consciences of their tormentors, when these will one day be virtually annihilated by the remorseful recognition of their shameful deeds—that is, burned in the fire of remorse—so that afterward they may yet be able to repay guilt in a new reincarnation, or experience redemption in the beyond if they bow there in humility and surrender to selfless love.
Dear brothers and sisters, viewed with God’s eyes and heart, ultimately everything makes sense. `Ultimately´ here also means fundamentally, that is, in the redeeming depth of all that happens—in the soul-spiritual dimension of time called eternity, for here is the source of love. Love is the eternal present within time, love is the foundation of all being, love is the power that always creates good.
When a soul becomes united with the Spirit of God, it sees all distress in the light of eternal love and mercy. In every situation it nestles against the heart of Jesus Christ, from which and within which it experiences unspeakable security. Here its theoretical surrender becomes divine unity in word and deed. Our heavenly Father has prepared this for us. It depends on us—are we ready?

Illness – Health – Possession
Dear Samuel, I have a problem: all my life, as a precaution, I went to the dentist every six months. But since the beginning of the vaccinations against Corona (2020), I have stopped going so that I would not have to breathe in the spike proteins from a vaccinated and genetically altered dentist for an hour—called Shading. Because I have refrained from dental visits, my teeth have meanwhile suffered greatly and become so decayed that, according to dental advice, they must be pulled by a surgeon. But I want this done only without anesthesia, because surely every anesthetic is poisonous as well. They refuse, however, to do it without anesthesia.
My question to God: Are vaccines already contained in the anesthetic injection? The mRNA in them is said to be a kind of adapter so that through it we can be controlled and even remotely controlled by electronic devices, thus ceasing to be human beings? The answer I would like most would be that there is not yet any vaccine in the anesthetic injection, but what about the surgeon’s Shading breath? I have heard that it is enough merely to work together with a vaccinated person in order to take on the vaccine poison.
Dear brother, I’ll tell you how it is for me: because of my work in care, I have intensive physical contact every day with vaccinated people, including their bodily fluids. I work without a mask and only in exceptional cases with gloves. Am I afraid of infection? I have never wasted a lasting thought on it, because my life belongs to Jesus Christ.
All the concerns about the frightening studies and reports concerning what is presently happening in pharmaceuticals and science with regard to vaccines, genetic manipulation, chemtrails, etc., I have entrusted to Jesus Christ. I am completely free of fear and ready at any time to lay aside the body. I have entrusted my life to our heavenly Father with all its consequences. This means not only that I wish to prove my faithfulness to Him by releasing my soul and fleshly bonds to the world and thereby freeing my soul for the Spirit of God, but that I trust Jesus Christ in life and death.
Yes, one should not willfully expose oneself to dangers for body and soul and tempt God by testing how far one can go or blindly taking part in everything because one is protected anyway. But to embrace a sick and/or vaccinated person with care and love is an act of divine love for one’s neighbor. Or if we must make use of necessary medical treatments, then surely our heavenly Father protects us—if we give Him the necessary trust. Then He blesses the doctor and the nurse.
You are a good example of the fact that when one fears the world more than God, when one concerns oneself too much with earthly conspiracies, one loses trust in and toward God or fails to find it on one’s spiritual path. Then worry, fear, and panic have taken power. Then God has no access. A vicious circle.
Take care of your health by entrusting it to God and, in an emergency, going to the doctor and allowing yourself to be treated as necessary. Vaccinations, chemotherapy, and so forth we should of course avoid. Yet in certain cases an act of divine mercy can protect the event here as well. With chemical radiation, transfusions, and transplants I have already experienced our heavenly Father, for special reasons, blessing the event/process so that lasting healing can take place. He then takes care of the mingling of soul-specific elements resulting from a possible transfusion or transplant and makes it right.
He does this when a person has set the course toward right faith (which can also happen unconsciously) and can then still grow spiritually in recovery or health in order to become a true child of God.
Pray before eating in the trust that divine blessing and protection are effective, for then they are. Give thanks after eating for food and drink. That does not mean we should stuff into ourselves everything that serves our appetites. But we must eat and drink what the food industry offers us. Not everyone can afford `organic´ food; not a few children of God have to shop at discount stores—then our Father blesses the food. He says this again and again quite clearly. Nor do we necessarily have to pray aloud; a quiet thought, a loving glance toward Him, and it is good. Do the same before you go to the doctor, before you meet people, before you drive away in the car, yes, before you leave the house.
Warm greetings to you, your brother in Jesus Christ.

Hello dear brother, I am just reading your book `Offenbarungen aus dem Gottesgeist´. It occurred to me that perhaps you could help me with my health problems. Since about my twentieth year I have suffered from severe migraines, which have become more frequent with increasing age, as well as pain in the lumbar spine since youth, which hurts more and more as I get older. Unfortunately no one has been able to help me very much so far, especially not with the migraines, which make life difficult for me. Could it be karmically caused? Could you perhaps also ask our Father Jesus Christ whether it is in His sense that I hold devotions for earthbound souls so that they may find their way back into the light? I would be very grateful to receive an answer from you.
Dear brother, obviously your soul needs a certain purification in order to become free; otherwise our heavenly Father would not have led you into such a life of suffering. Just like me, you too bring with you substantial satanic portions of soul that are to be brought to redemption. You knew this beforehand and gladly accepted this task.
Look at your situation in this way, and there will be a shift into divine consciousness, through which your cross will become easier to carry, because then you feel and realize that Jesus carries your burden with you. It may then quite well happen that your cross is taken from you in due time. For that there is still a tremendous step needed in unconditional trust and the surrender of your earthly existence to Jesus Christ. Yet Jesus stands ready to lead you there.
If this truly happens, you may then either return to your spiritual homeland, or you will receive another earthly task in order to bear witness here to the love and mercy of Jesus Christ. There you can and may ask our heavenly Father which you would prefer—but it must be a genuine request. Think carefully about it. Though I already see your decision, my dear brother… and I rejoice.
If you hold devotions for souls, you must first ask for protection, and afterward ask that your sphere and your soul remain free, that the souls present be led onward again so that they cannot harm you. Otherwise it can happen that they cling to you or settle within you. Sometimes the Father permits this nonetheless so that the departed may behold His grace and love in His children; then it is good, and in due time they are led onward. What makes no sense is to tell the souls that they should go into the light, for they do not yet have any. Tell them about God’s love; tell them the meaning and purpose of their existence and that Jesus Christ alone can make them happy. Tell them that they have a heavenly Father who loves them infinitely and who has prepared a wonderful dwelling place for them, to which they will be led when they open their hearts to Him. But you are already doing this anyway.

Hello dear Samuel, I am an educator and have been on sick leave for six months because of overload. After changing positions within the kindergarten, I witnessed a colleague have a panic attack; afterward I developed stress symptoms—it passed over to me. I was still able to continue working for another five months, but then it was no longer possible and I developed these anxiety states.
Now I wanted to start again because I was feeling better, but then I developed such severe sleep disorders that I had to cancel my reintegration. Now I feel even worse and practically no longer sleep at all. My doctor would like to give me antidepressants, but I do not want that. Perhaps you have an inspiration as to what has happened to me.
Dear sister, at present several brothers and sisters are in a similar situation to yours: they can sleep only very little, or they are struggling with other comparably serious problems. Viewed superficially and medically, this has various triggers and reasons. But the actual cause lies in the fact that this world is now entirely enveloped by the antichristian spirit of lies, both on the soul level and on the material level. Depending on the soul structure, this has grave effects on our psychological and thereby on our physical condition.
I too feel this satanic attack and intrusion, for none of us is yet so united with Jesus Christ that this evil atmosphere can no longer harm us; rather, it puts us into unrest and nervousness, so that the soul often, and especially at night, cannot come to rest.
It is important that we do not despair in our conditions, but remain in trust that Jesus prepares a way out for us. Perhaps He also leads us to a doctor through whom He treats us medically; this possibility too we can and may include. It is absolutely necessary that we continue to entrust our lives completely to our heavenly Father—and our death as well. For it may indeed be that now and soon He will call some of His children home.
But sleeplessness also has to do with the awakening of the soul. The soul is meant to awaken spiritually in this significant time. If, because of its material way of life, it is still very closely woven into the body at certain points of consciousness, then the awakening or wakefulness of the soul causes the person’s sleeplessness at night. Thus something that is actually good and necessary turns into a threatening health problem.
What can you do? The solution already lies in recognizing that it is so. Recognize that although you should always be spiritually awake, as a soul-being in an earthly body you certainly may and should sleep in order to preserve and exercise your vital powers. Therefore consciously and with a good conscience allow yourself to sleep; in this way you reprogram yourself in the spirit of love.
Lie down to sleep at the divine heart; if necessary cleanse your conscience in His love, and then you have a good pillow of rest. With Him and in Him all is well; He then sits beside your sleeping place, holds your hand, and leads you into sleep. The soul of course remains awake, but the consciousness of your earthly human being enters into cleansing and restorative sleep.
Dear sister, I pray for you and place your soul upon the heart of our heavenly Father, that He may stand by you and protect you from attacks of every kind. Warm greetings to you, your brother in Jesus Christ.

Dear Samuel, I regularly discuss smoking with a dear brother. I myself was a smoker, but it tormented me because I felt dirty and impure for Jesus. With God’s help I was permitted to let go of this addiction. I was and remain of the opinion that everything that becomes a habit, addiction, or compulsion stands between Jesus and us. It is like an idol one thinks about because one imagines one needs it. I also feel that it is necessary to let go of everything in order to land in Jesus’ arms.
How do you see it? Am I mistaken? The brother says he has prayed and handed the problem over to Jesus. Jesus would take smoking away from him at the right time. But I think one has to want it oneself and, in a manner of speaking, do violence to oneself. The spirit conquers the material addiction.
Please tell me, am I completely wrong, am I too strict? I would be interested in your opinion on this.
Dear sister, you are right; in certain things one must do violence to oneself. The will must become strong in love for Jesus Christ; the powers of the will must be gathered in overcoming, in order then to enter into God’s will—in and through love for Him.
To hand an addiction over to Jesus and wait for Him to take it away without any effort of one’s own can happen, but only when love for Him has reached an overflowing measure; then an addiction falls away by itself, dissolves. But one must first have such burning love in the heart.
Otherwise our heavenly Father wants us to prove our faithfulness to Him by letting go of and overcoming all evil in trust and love for Him. Your dear brother is making it easy for himself; he is telling himself something untrue and does not admit his weakness to himself. He should do that before God and ask for courage and strength so that together with Him he can overcome his addiction.

Dear Samuel, my friend R. lives with Crohn’s disease, ankylosing spondylitis, and scleroderma. She loves Jesus very much and also lives Him, insofar as this is possible at the age of 30. She would please like an appointment with you, because questions are burning in her soul that only you can answer. But she has a peculiarity, apparently taken over from her parents, that no one except her immediate family members is allowed into her apartment, not even me. But that is no problem; then we will simply do it at my place.
It concerns her death and resuscitation; the matter was quite close and mysterious, but she felt Jesus near and warm in her heart, like a protective blanket, as she told me. She has asked Him several times why she had to experience this; she had no near-death experience at all, but she received no answer. Nor is it at all clear to her where she comes from and what her task on Earth is.
According to the medical diagnosis, with her illnesses she has a life expectancy of another 5–10 years, even though one cannot tell by looking at her. The scleroderma has attacked the internal organs (kidneys, heart, and lungs); she has pulmonary hypertension and has to eat at least 3,500 kcal every day in order to live because her intestines cannot absorb much. She is actually cheerful and optimistic, and whenever she feels a little better she immediately makes a whole lot of plans.
Dear sister, something is not right here with R.; above all, something is seriously wrong at the soul level. There are also strange spirits involved. A Christian in Jesus’ presence knows the meaning of his existence and sees His/his path. She speaks with Jesus, but has no trust in the guidance? That does not fit together. The task is first and foremost to live God’s love in one’s small surroundings. One should not expect great tasks, because then they do not come. Only Jesus may have great plans for us; one should not make them oneself.
What causes the hardening and the resulting final paralysis of the organs and the spine? What gives rise to chronic inflammation of the intestines? To answer these questions one has to penetrate deeply into the structure of the soul…
… I see a monstrous, malignant, and destructive energy inside her, one that bites into her, that rolls and coils around her organs like lava, very slowly yet aggressively, gray, stony, deadly. What is this? Something/someone has entered her… there is no love in this energy. Do you know the process when a snake devours a rabbit, slowly and mercilessly?—that is what this entity is like. It wants to integrate R. into its own rigidity, a strange and cruel process.
Although I feel divine power, I am not equal to this being. Therefore Jesus must take over here. Yet why does He allow it? What weakness in the soul let this dreadful entity in, what continues to let it act? It is also the one that causes R. to let no one into her apartment—in a figurative sense: no one may enter her soul, because the demonic energy wants to be alone and undisturbed. But with her parents R. makes an exception; there love is stronger than death.
Now I have entered her soul. I feel the demon; now it lashes out, at least it tries to in its rigidity. Now I see that it is already partly bound with ropes. What does that mean? God’s help is near; measures have already been taken from the spiritual side to end this evil. Yet the time has not yet come. R.’s fate becomes an act of redemption through her turning toward Jesus, for through her and in her a demonic entity may be liberated.
But who or what exactly will ultimately be liberated here I cannot say. R. should visualize an encounter and an embrace with Jesus every day. She should also imagine a stream of golden light flowing from her heart and completely filling her soul. Dear sister, I was not prepared for this spontaneous view into the soul. I am somewhat shaky and also shaken.
Dear Samuel, R. has investigated possible causes of her possession. It cannot have been due to her parents; they were included in the questioning as well. Then a striking story from her childhood occurred to her: she was five and in kindergarten. There was a girl in her group named C. who wore nickel-framed glasses. She regarded R. as a role model or sister and clung to her like a burr. R. found this rather unpleasant, had a bad feeling about it, and complained, but C. would not leave her alone. One day a condolence sheet was passed around for signatures: C. had died of leukemia. From that point on R. became ill, and even then she often had to go to the hospital because of rheumatic flare-ups or Crohn’s disease.
Would it be possible that the demon which had caused C.’s leukemia changed `hosts´ after her death? It was strange how strongly that child clung to R.
Concerning the exercise you gave her, she said: The first time it was strange, but by now it is going better than expected.
Dear sister, dear R., now we are getting much closer to the matter. Yes, it is the demon that already brought C. to death and now wants to bring R. to death. It does not necessarily kill intentionally; its mere presence in the soul causes wasting and death. It is indeed bound, yet it writhes and keeps its grip. The light is already very unpleasant to it, but it cannot and does not want to let go; after all, it does not know where to go. “But the day will come when it must depart,” thus speaks Jesus Christ the Lord.

Blood Transfusion
Dear Samuel, for some time I have been preoccupied by the fact that I needed many units of blood for my heart operations; altogether there were 28. Now I have received another 10. I do think that not many of the donors were vaccinated, but because my fatigue and exhaustion are so extreme I inquired whether a test for spike proteins would make sense. This can be done by lumbar puncture or by a special blood test, but that costs more than €200.
Basically I think that Jesus has preserved/protected me up to now, but at the moment I am uncertain… is that a lack of trust? Fearmongering from the other side? Or does the fatigue come from somewhere else? Perhaps you have an opinion on this.
Dear sister, the present exhaustion and fatigue in many people comes from the atmosphere in Earth’s space becoming darker, caused by the many evil thoughts of the Antichrists and selfish people; in addition, the increasing radiation and frequencies contribute to exhaustion and lack of drive.
What does this mean for us? Our conditions show us where we stand and what we should do. Fatigue and exhaustion are usually the sign and result that we still have too much involvement in earthly things—and there are many obvious and hidden possibilities and bonds. In honesty before God and toward oneself these can be seen quite well.
Where do we let too much of the world into ourselves? Where are we not in divine order? Where do we still live in sin? In what areas do we deny Jesus Christ access to our lives?
I see that your earthly existence has been given to you once more by the Father so that you may dedicate it wholly to Him. But because of the blood transfusions you have soul portions from different donors within you. God has permitted that, and through your life of faith you can and should help redeem them.
It may quite well be that these foreign soul portions in your organism exert an additional influence upon your life energy, similar to the way antichristian energy acts from outside. Therefore continue to remain in trust; the Father has guided you until now and will continue to do so. You need not be afraid; simply accept your condition, and remain a humble child of God in the awareness that your life belongs to Jesus Christ; then all will be well.

Dear Samuel, recently, following a feeling, I donated blood again for the first time in quite a while. I had not actually intended to, also because the last few times I was always prevented from doing so when I planned it. But this time the thought was in me: `Perhaps a child of God needs your blood.´ During the donation I prayed that my blood would reach the right recipient.
A day later, in conversation with a brother, the subject came up. He said that through a blood donation a connection arises between donor and recipient, which is understandable. If someone else receives my blood, a small part of me is in that person. But is it also the case that I can then be influenced by the spirit of the recipient? That an invisible spiritual connection develops between me and the recipients? This thought struck and frightened me quite deeply. I only wanted to help, since I am unvaccinated and have a blood type compatible with all people. I would be grateful if you could say a few words about this.
Dear sister, except for one’s own family I generally advise against donating blood, for this method of sustaining life is not in divine order. Why would I nevertheless do it for my family? Quite simply: first, out of love for my wife and children I could not do otherwise; and second, with one’s own children or parents the blood mixes with one’s own blood, for there is an intimate blood relationship. For my family I would give my blood and my life at any time. Jesus did the same for us, who are His children and His family.
However, there is a new law that one no longer has the right to determine who is to receive the blood, not even for oneself. This means that one may donate for one’s loved ones with good intentions, but one has no guarantee that they will actually receive the blood; it could also be blood from a stranger.
Yes, a connection exists between donor and recipient—with corresponding interaction. The recipient is chiefly the one influenced by the donor; he takes in soul portions from the donor, which are integrated into his own blood. Blood arises from stem cells, that is, from genetic material, which joins with the soul and, after the Spirit of God has been implanted or imprisoned in the heart, forms a human being. Soulless or dead blood cannot be donated; after it is drawn it must be stored accordingly so that it can continue to be used. Thus soul-substance is contained in donor blood.
Depending on the amount of blood, the recipient’s personality is influenced to a greater or lesser extent by the donor’s personality. Blood groups must always correlate, meaning that a soul-level convergence must be present, through which a basic soul-level approach or similarity is given. But it also and above all depends on the consciousness acquired on Earth by the donor, to what extent soul components in the recipient are altered through the administered blood.
What then happens to your soul when your donated blood is mixed with the blood, that is, the life, of another person? There is no `material contact´ from the other side, but rather a soul-level repercussion. Does your soul then continue to resonate with the soul portions of your donated blood? And through this does the behavior or consciousness of the recipient affect your soul, your behavior?
This can indeed be the case here in a very weakened form, but not nearly as much as with the recipient, for the recipient is directly influenced, whereas the donor experiences an indirect repercussion and effect through the spheres of the beyond. It depends on the life-force and strength of will with which the recipient is endowed. But if you walk with Jesus, believe me, He makes everything right again, for your will was and is love.
Basically it is this way: when one bleeds, the blood coagulates in the air and is finally given back to the Earth—and it is good. Over the course of time the soul then retrieves the corresponding necessary portions and integrates them back into itself. But when one donates blood to other people, it mixes with the soul origin and consciousness structure of the recipient and remains there as an integral component.
Yet because the soul must be complete for its perfection, at the death of the recipient it must retrieve its portions; in the recipient’s decomposition process the soul substances then instinctively return to the original person—unless they have become too strongly fused with the being of the recipient. If this is the case, or if for some other reason no return takes place, there must one day be an encounter in the beyond, in which the soul-specific elements can then return to their personal homeland. This can occur only when donor soul and recipient soul are in equivalent spheres and thus the possibility of a meeting is given.
I likewise advise against blood cleansing—here I do not mean dialysis, which replaces kidney filtration, but apheresis, in which blood cells and blood plasma are separated outside the body, the plasma is cleansed, and afterward the components are brought together again—for first, the blood is altered in the process, since cells and plasma do not necessarily reconnect as they originally did, and second, soul-specific elements essential to life can be removed that have been diagnosed as supposedly disease-causing substances in the bloodstream. If blood cleansing is to be done, then under therapeutic supervision one should perform bloodletting, in which the blood renews and replenishes itself and thus both physical and soul-level recovery can occur. Treatment with one’s own blood can also be useful if one wishes to strengthen the immune system or counteract allergies.
Something else one should know: most blood donations go to the pharmaceutical industry for research purposes and for the production of pharmaceutical products. A great deal of blood also flows into the illegal black market, where it is used and abused for various purposes, among them Satanism and vampirism. Blood donation has long since become a conscienceless business. The motto of saving lives is a pretext so that unscrupulous organizations and companies can enrich themselves without measure.
One can now say: many human lives are saved by donated blood, especially in operations. That is true, but was the human being created for earthly life or for eternal spiritual life? In his material delusion he knows neither a soul nor eternal life. Everything aims at preserving earthly existence for as long as possible.
But viewed from the divine standpoint, it looks different: earthly life is a school of free will with a powerful pull toward matter and a quiet breath of faith. The true homeland of the human being is the spiritual world. Earthly existence serves solely to prepare us for eternal life in the Spirit of truth and love. In the presence of Jesus Christ, the child of God looks upon the bustle of the world with divine eyes and recognizes the meaninglessness of material striving and unconditional preservation of earthly existence. It recognizes that in truth the only matter is the soul’s gain for eternal life.

Through the Deep Dark Valley
Excerpts from correspondence with a brother:
… perhaps I can also tell you that I am shaken by the dark sides that are being driven upward out of my soul. I would never have suspected how many satanic portions are in me—you had already mentioned such things to me. At the time I could not grasp the scope of your remark at all—now it is clearer to me, since I can mirror my thoughts, feelings, and actions better, also through reading the `Großen Evangelium Johannes´.
So now I stand here as though I had a gigantic dark mountain within me that must be removed. And practically—not merely by reading books. I once asked for help here before, because I am very lacking in the practical side. How could I begin with something small? Practice praying properly?
Dear Samuel—for a few practical suggestions I would be very grateful, because I often stand in my own way.
Dear brother, it is quite simple: every day there are a thousand situations in which to practice love for one’s neighbor. First it is the small things of everyday life that challenge us to serve God. And then comes love for Him as well. One always thinks something great must happen, a miracle, yet the Father first wants to test us in everyday life; He wants us to serve love in humility in the inconspicuous. Satan is the inflated, pompous one; Jesus passes by in the gentle whisper. Practice meeting Jesus Christ in stillness, only you and He, heart to heart.
(…)
Dear Samuel, I have not let you hear from me for a long time because I cannot manage the practical implementation of what I have learned. Now I have become depressed again. Before that I was probably in a manic phase. This has been going back and forth for many years. What a strange soul am I? Can you recognize anything there?
I pray to Jesus every day that He may help and strengthen me, but I feel no improvement. I am truly afraid that I will no longer be able to cope. I also do not want to have psychotropic medication prescribed for me again—it must surely be possible with Jesus to heal my soul. I do not want to give myself up; there must be a way, even for a stubborn person like me.
Dear brother Samuel, if you can send me something somehow, that would help me very much. Thank you, your brother F.
Dear F., in fact it is not only you; several brothers and sisters are presently having psychological problems because of the negative energies that have now seized this Earth and envelop it. These brothers and sisters have—and you too have—an entry gate, an opening in the soul through which demonic energies can repeatedly penetrate and so afflict a person who is actually of good will that he falls into despair and is brought down—as you experience again and again.
As children of God we are those called by God; He has caused His call of love to resound into our death, and He knew and knows well that despite this we continue to cling to death in a certain self-will and self-indulgence, for initially a process of redemption and liberation was set in motion that can last several years.
For now the first thing is not to give up and to endure in patience and humility until rescue becomes possible. The pull toward death can be stopped only through radical insight into the necessity of redemption through Jesus Christ and the trust and necessary surrender connected with it. It is also necessary to let go of the things that bind us to matter, that is, addictions of every kind. Dear brother, I pray for you.
(…)
Dear F., a horde of deceased souls clings to you and drains you. This comes from the fact that your sphere contains or represents a mixture of spiritual goods with worldly pleasures/satisfactions. Both together, the spiritual light and worldly pleasure, form, so to speak, the honey that attracts the souls like bees. That is why you have within you a tangle of thoughts and feelings that wears you down.
What can you do? Humble yourself before God, confess your distress before Him, kneel down as a symbolic act of humility, and repent of your sins. Imagine Jesus standing before you and reaching out His hand to you. Imagine Him shining His light of love into your sphere/soul and driving away the darkness within you and the souls that cling to you. In the future you must not deal so lightly with God’s grace; take your spiritual path seriously, be truthful in faith and trust. Then all will be well. Your brother in Jesus Christ.
Dear Samuel, thank you very much for your explanation and clear words. You are completely right: when I look back over my earthly life, it was always about this: knowledge and pleasure and rebellion. Somehow I never really got anything right in my life. There is also much anger in me; my recognition of the satanic conditions of the world has inflamed it even further. That was the manic phase, which has now passed into the depressive one.
Dear brother Samuel, you have now told me what I have to do. I thank you and will set about it. Your brother in Jesus Christ.
(…)
Dear Samuel, unfortunately I must ask you for help again, since my psychological condition has continued to deteriorate badly and the fear of complete loss of control is directly before me. I am then unable to work for months because I can no longer think clearly and am capable only of handling the lowest necessities of life—this must be what hell feels like!
Dear Samuel, I need an emergency plan; I want finally to get out of this vicious circle. I pray to Jesus every day, but nevertheless it keeps getting worse, so I am doing something wrong…
Dear brother, you can speak with Jesus and ask Him what is possible for me… what is going wrong with me. Somehow I have not understood life correctly up to now, or else I have subordinated everything to comfort and pleasure. Anger and aversion determined my life, fear, hypocrisy and surely self-deception as well… lack of independence, fear of people, lovelessness. From what complicated circumstances did I come to Earth? Why am I so resistant to change?
I know that it is difficult to advise someone without constraining him in his free development. In principle I also know the most important things; I simply lack implementation and surely the necessary seriousness as well. Recognizing the earthly-satanic power relations in recent years made me really negative.
Dear brother Samuel, you have already advised me on quite a few things… I have the feeling that I must change my entire life, but I do not know exactly how. The compulsive negative thoughts torment me constantly and prevent calm, clear decisions. I hope I have described everything necessary to you, and I thank you with all my heart, your brother in Jesus Christ.
Dear brother, actually I wanted to write to you myself once more in order to address your questions and answer you, but the Father wishes to do it Himself:
“My son, I have heard your cry for help; it has penetrated deeply into My heart. You went into the world to bring Me captives of demonic power from the lowest depths. To do this you had to descend deeply into the regions of the fallen world; for this you had to leave Me and lose Me for a certain time.
At the right time I called you; My call resounded in your soul. You heard it and set out on the way back into My heart. I guided you so that you would find the necessary revelations that lead you into the truth of the spirit. I also brought people to you who enlighten you and stand helpfully at your side in your struggle through life.
Yet as is the case with many whom I have called and chosen, they could not put into practice what they had recognized from God; they were too lukewarm and sluggish, too fickle and too much in love with the world. The result is a condition like yours or similar. For through spiritual neglect, precisely the spiritual task becomes and has become the cause of many a despair and of a seemingly hopeless condition.
Yes, your soul is in a state of siege; the demonic weight drives you toward madness—they want your death in order to draw you into their hellish sphere—I will not make that sound pleasant. But know that it is not yet too late. Everything can still turn toward the good if you remember your divine strength and power, which at present are being misused by the lower powers—meaning that they have robbed you of the power and strength given to you and turned them into their evil. You can easily recognize this in your anger, your aversion, your hypocrisy, which often powerfully determine you.
My son, humble yourself in your helplessness and poverty of soul; gather within it all your confused thoughts and feelings and give them to Me. Do not wish to know or receive anything except My love alone. Ask Me to make available to you a spiritual space, which is the inviolable sanctuary of your soul. Go into it often, at times you arrange according to the course of your day. I will be there. But cleanse yourself beforehand with the humility of nothingness, so that I may fill you with new, pure power and strength from Me.
My son, you may not give up now, but must remain steadfast in trust in Me and in your task, for which you went into this world. Remember that once you glowed in love for Me; this flame of your heart I will open for you when you enter into your heart—to Me, your Jesus, who dwells in you and has long been waiting for you in order to give you divine comfort and love without end.”
Dear brother, I see the confusion of your demonically occupied world of thought; like a spider’s web it winds around the mind of your soul, the thoughts shoot here and there, jumping and so quickly that I can no longer keep up with them. They take your soul along and whip it back and forth—rest is not possible there. Therefore stubbornly and stoically do what the Father has instructed and advised you to do. In this way you will come to rest in the storm, as once the apostles did in the boat on the lake. They thought Jesus was asleep and therefore they were lost. Yet their persistence awakened Him and He commanded the storm to be silent. And there was stillness and peace. So too with you. But have patience as well, for it takes time, since those who cling to you are to be led to redemption. Therefore pray for them daily. Your brother in Jesus Christ.

After reading in the `Lebenswinken´, I must confess that in my case I am a typical `Hansel´. Throughout my life I was never really able to detach myself from my mother. Only in the last ten years has this improved, and today I care for her at home (stroke/dementia) with the help of the care service.
For me the question now arises what is better for my mother and which cross I should carry. Should I continue caring for my mother at home and thus preserve her from the `death injection´ (vaccination)? Should I bear with her as the Lord bore with me in my worst time (complaining, stubbornness, everyone else is to blame except me, etc.), or is it better to place her in a nursing home?
My soul-holes were and partly still are the following: alcohol, pornography addiction, bulimia, dependence on laxatives, nasal spray, stomach tablets. In addition, since childhood I have struggled with depression and obsessive neuroses as well as fixed ideas, which has always greatly hindered my decision-making, because I cannot distinguish between the voice in the heart (if one can call it that) and this other influence (possession/obsession?). In the present situation and also quite generally I want to do what Jesus wants, but I do not know what that is. So I always have the feeling that I am doing the wrong thing, or I fluctuate between passivity/postponement and hectic activity. What does Jesus want me to do?!
Dear brother, the heavenly Father is knocking powerfully on the door of your heart right now; your insights and questions about His will are the result of His presence, His light with which He illuminates your inner being. For now a new life is to begin in you and death is to depart from you, a life in love and surrender to the divine will. Concerning this He speaks:
“My son, once you went out into the distance, went into the valley of death in order to experience what suffering means, what it means to feel longing for light in the darkness. Yes, you fell deeply and became trapped in this world of death and corruption. Your longing became an addiction to worldly satisfactions, and these bound you to the cross of matter. In this apparent hopelessness you now come to Me, and you do rightly, for only I can help you. Therefore I tell you: gather all your desire into love for Me. Place all your questions into love for Me. I will answer you, quietly and softly in your heart. For this it is necessary that you first find rest in the storm of thoughts and feelings, worries and fears that now drive you and thus churn up the sea of your soul, in which you cannot stand, in which you cannot feel or understand Me.
Your love opens the door to Me; with it you give Me access to your life, and through it My word becomes alive and audible in you. With calm and patience you take yourself out of the rushing stream of time in order to experience the word of eternity. Therefore trust My word here and there, for I am in every place, I am in every heart to ease every pain. I have risen from death in order to break all its bonds, I am your saving Father in every situation of life; therefore dare now to take this step toward Me. Then I will preserve you and guide you safely through every danger. This is My word for you, My son; trust, believe, love. Amen.”

Hello dear Samuel, I would like to ask you for advice. Since childhood I have had terrible nightmares, images that come from hell, but I also often see things that will still happen in my life, which I cannot prevent and which then make me sad, such as the suicide of my cousin. I myself am not capable of such thoughts and wonder where they come from… they are so terrible that I can still remember them decades later.
The trigger was abuse when I was three years old… afterward I could also see souls in my room, which frightened me greatly as a child. Fortunately I no longer see them today, but I feel it and begin to pray when I get an oppressive feeling. Therefore I do not like darkness and am sometimes afraid, even though I am already an adult. I know that fear is food for evil, but sometimes it is so bad that I am no longer able to think clearly or say my prayers. I stopped drinking and fast in the evening, but that leads to attacks and still more nightmares.
I have prayed to Jesus so often that He would take these nightmares and my fear away from me, but unfortunately everything remains as it is. I fear that these dreams reflect my innermost being or my soul, or perhaps that I fundamentally have a bad core. If I must carry this cross I will do so and accept it, but I still do not want to leave anything untried. Perhaps you have good advice.
Dear B., the abuse gravely damaged and impaired your spiritual perception, which you brought into this earthly life because of your advanced soul-spiritual development. It is now wrongly directed, namely into the dark world of the beyond rather than mainly into the luminous one, as it actually could have been. Through this you have a distorted and harmful view into the beyond. Especially at night, when the soul is more or less open, these hellish and demonic images penetrate your consciousness. They are therefore not a mirror of your soul, but come from outside.
Why did our heavenly Father permit this? Had you grown up from earliest childhood with and in the angelic worlds, your soul would probably have fallen into spiritual-esoteric pride, since you bring sovereign genes from your pre-earthly life and are also a beautiful and enchanting woman. Then you would never have come into this distress and would never have sought and longed for Jesus as intensely as is now the case in this phase of your life. The abuse and the distress arising from it therefore stand much higher in importance and value than a simple, happy, but thereby rather superficial existence, even if spiritual, as is not rarely the case. For with regard to eternal bliss, only that counts which prepares you for it in the best and safest way, so that there you may certainly be at and in the heart of your beloved Jesus.
The cross of your earthly existence opened the depth of your soul to you and showed you lostness and poverty. Now the time will soon come when the heavenly Father will set your spiritual perception in order again, for now there is no longer the danger that you will leave Him when things go well for you… is there?
Dear sister, you need not be afraid, for Jesus Christ is with you; He knows everything and has power over everything. Therefore do not slacken in faith, but have a little more patience; strengthen your trust in Him, come even farther out of the world and its sensuality and enter childlike into the merciful love of your heavenly Father, into His heart, which has long been waiting for you full of longing and joy. Then He has the necessary access to your sphere and can and will turn everything toward the good. Your brother in Jesus Christ.

Dear Samuel, I have a friend; she chose almost the hardest thing: slavery, abuse, and work to exhaustion, then nearly drowning in alcohol. She was badly abused many times and abuses herself by driving herself to the highest physical performance until she collapses. She has a loving heart, much strength, but often not the right discernment. She has often tried to take her own life, surely several times in recent years. I have helped her again and again and pray for her, but now she is once more at the edge of her strength, and so am I. For short periods she does gain insight. Problem: she always wants to force her head through the wall.
In the milieu in which she grew up she had to learn to defend herself. She has a four-year suspended prison sentence behind her because she beat a pimp, who was choking her with a coat hanger, badly enough to send him to the hospital, and did the same to a man who touched her breasts. At present she is under the influence of alcohol and cannot get free, misses doctor’s appointments, and now she called me to say that her landlord is selling the house she lives in and she has to leave.
Jesus Christ told a friend that basically she is a good person, a dear, pure being. We now need good guidance for us. Can you do something for us?
Dear brother, can your friend live with you if she has to move out? I see: in alcohol she drowns her lost blissful homeland of the other world. Yet she wanted to come here in order to give fulfillment to her longing: to become a free child in Jesus Christ.
She was aware of the dangers. But now her longing has flowed into a vicious circle and is bound within it. Through this she sinks step by step ever deeper into the mire of her unconscious accusation against the life she herself chose. She faces this darkness day after day, and this devilish energy shatters her luminous thoughts that would save her. A dreadful and self-destructive condition.
Her spiritual companions fight for her soul day and night. Jesus Christ often stands with her and opens His love for her—moments of light—and yet she repeatedly plunges back into darkness and into her death, which is not death but a lie. But I see that she can become free… soon, when the light of the spiritual sun breaks through and penetrates the darkness. But before that Satan wants to kill her and drag her with him as his prey into the abyss of eternal darkness. Yet he shall not and will not succeed.
Now I see her soul: an angel with torn wings (symbolically), yet with enormous strength of will. A demon presses her to the ground and has bitten fast into her soul. It jerks its head back and forth as though it wanted to bite something out of her soul. Others stand by laughing and mock God because they have gained power over this angel and God does not intervene.
Yes, He does not yet intervene, but judging power already stands ready to hurl the servants of hell into their abysses if the burning coals above their heads do not take effect. Yes, her soul is a battlefield; a battle with great redemptive potential is taking place. Now I see angels weeping. They are her sisters and brothers in the light. Yet they also know the plan of God that will be realized here.
Dear brother, let us pray intimately for your friend. Let us place her soul in God’s luminous heart; then the demons must depart. Remain steadfast; you are doing God’s work upon her, your love for her is Jesus’ love for her in you and through you. Your faithfulness to her is the Father’s faithfulness to you—and much more besides.

Spiritual Insight on the Way
Hello, in these circles I am overcome by the feeling that the others are already so far along, so conscious or so `holy´, and then I feel so small and unworthy. Nevertheless I want to stay with it and work on myself. I hope that is still all right.
Dear brother, your self-knowledge is the basic prerequisite for truly walking the spiritual path. Jesus is already with you; otherwise you would not have the thought of unworthiness, for only His light can show us our sinfulness and smallness. Do not think that we in the circles of brothers and sisters are already so far along. We are all sinners before God, yet He comes to us in His mercy in order to lead us into His heart.
Holy is our heavenly Father alone; everything is His and everything good in and through us comes from Him. Yet in love for Him we can share in this holiness—in the sense of divine love for Him and for one another. That is possible only if we accept our nothingness and enter His presence in humility. Then we give Him the space of our soul, within and from which He can work.
Yes, true self-knowledge gives humility, and recognizing that our heavenly Father loves us so much despite our sinfulness and stands by us kindles our heart’s love for Him, and this opens the door so that He may enter and dwell with us. Therefore rejoice that you are allowed to feel small and unworthy, for then He is already quite near to you.

Dear Samuel, I have a question that occupies me greatly. It concerns the Feierstunde in November, where in the third word of the Father it is about `the step, the final step into God’s heart´.
We in the family are walking our path with Jesus and are daily in prayer and in lived love for our neighbor—as well as possible. We have given God our yes and have also accepted the atoning sacrifice of Jesus Christ. But when I read these lines, that `when one tastes only a tiny part of God’s Spirit, it draws one into the Spirit´, I ask myself where I stand?! I do not even know how to express it, but what is this final step? Is it to lay before God in prayer and with feeling that one completely surrenders one’s life to Him? That is easily said. Yet here on this Earth we are confronted with various things, precisely because we see what is happening in the world and what will still happen.
This final step, this surrender, can be brought before Jesus with words and also from feeling. And in that moment it feels exactly like that. But then worldly things come, uncertainties, what will the future bring, and so forth; then one knows that one is walking one’s path with God and that is a good feeling, but has one then already completely surrendered one’s life to Him? Can this deep trust be practiced? In our heads these things are completely clear to us, partly also with feeling—but surely that is not enough? Perhaps you would like to answer this when you have an opportunity?
Dear sister, thank you for your valuable words. We are in a process of spiritualization, in which the flame of longing and surrender, trust and love for our heavenly Father become ever more intense. This process involves an up and down; it is a struggle with the earthly and soul elements that challenges us completely, but also strengthens us and draws us nearer to Jesus in the recognition that He is always with us and loves us so much.
Yet there is a point of heart-recognition that goes beyond what we have previously known as faith and the spiritual path. It is insight into God’s heart, which then draws us like a magnet into His being. This drawing into the divine Spirit is probably also a temporal process, but one in which the soul already lives in Jesus’ constant presence and is in heart-contact with Him. And then it can happen very quickly that the divine penetration and inward birth occur. As inflowing air or water fills an empty space, so the Spirit of God then fills the soul—permanently.
Some brothers and sisters have already entered this state, and some are just now taking this step, which is actually a shared step of Father and child toward one another. Other brothers and sisters have long stood at this gate to bliss, but they do not take it for true because they are still sleep-drunken, as it were still under worldly anesthesia, or they forcibly look away from their spiritual possibility of entering into God’s love. This comes from valuing the world and one’s own needs more highly than trusting Jesus’ love and devotedly orienting and shaping one’s life in that trust.
It can also be that in one’s sinfulness one does not consider oneself worthy of being allowed to love Jesus Christ intimately. But then He speaks: “My children, love Me in every situation of your earthly existence, love Me in your wretchedness and sin; only then and therein can you recognize My eternal love, which never departs from you, which sacrificed itself for you in order to redeem you. This most living recognition of My heart makes you free from all bonds and inevitably draws you to Me, draws you into My heart.”
Dear Samuel, it is me again. Yesterday you answered me so understandingly. Thank you once again!
It keeps going through my head how one is supposed to manage to `turn one’s eyes away from the world´. We (my husband and our two young adult children) spend much time as a family, live rather withdrawn, and yet there is work, study, and various other things that simply have to be done. Here is the heating repair, there is the dentist appointment, and elsewhere one or more bureaucratic matters to take care of—nothing one could postpone or ignore. Sometimes our day is so fully booked with time, but without this causing us not to be in trust. We nevertheless try to find time to pray and that does us good. But: How can I turn my eyes away from the world? These things have to be done! How do you do it? Surely you too have this and that to do and yet come into the feeling that you even receive an Inner Word.
I find this really difficult, because when one has a multitude of things to take care of, it is often hard for us to come into a good feeling of connection with Jesus. Naturally, besides the daily prayers there is one good impulse or another to speak with Jesus—even if only briefly. But that is surely not enough then to take the `one step´ to/into God the Father’s heart. Perhaps you would like to answer once more when you have an opportunity.
Dear sister, you must not take turning your eyes away from the world only literally; it is meant above all on the soul level. As human beings of this Earth we have the responsibility to lead an orderly life. This includes earthly duties, whether in work, school, government offices, etc. It cannot be otherwise in this time, where everything is regulated by laws and bureaucracy. Our heavenly Father wants that from us as well, and there too He is present and helps us. Yes, also and especially in the material areas He guides us when we have dedicated our earthly existence to Him. We are not meant to be dropouts, but to serve Him in everyday life; that is the school we attend. For this and in it He gives us enough opportunities—and in every act of love, however small, He is present.
Not being of the world at the soul level means that although we live in the world, we do so in the awareness that we are not of this world. We meet the demands placed upon us, but the focus lies in the life of faith, in love for God. Then it is rightly done.
I myself work full time in the care of severely disabled people. There I am often completely in the world, yet I take love with me and it takes me with it. To work and live in the awareness of Jesus’ presence means to take Him everywhere and let Him work. Again and again direct one’s awareness toward Him when one has drifted away.
Now one could say: “Yes, in care work that is easy; it is already a service of love. That is different from an office job.” I tell you, my profession is a great challenge, for not all the people one cares for are nice and grateful. I often endure severe struggles for love, for patience and willingness to sacrifice. Yet even when I fall out of love again, Jesus stands ready to take me by the hand and lead me into His heart. This is how our life takes shape; this is our life: life with Jesus Christ.
What we lack are not the circumstances and possibilities of life in order to grow spiritually, but our willingness to serve God in humility in our everyday situations. Do not expect great things, but find your heavenly Father in the small things of everyday life, where He is with you, where He stands beside you with loving eyes and speaks:
“My daughter, My son, why do you not recognize Me? Why do you not see Me? I have awakened you and shown you My heart—and I always walk with you while you seek Me in the distance. See, I am not a distant God, but a loving Father who always wants to be with His children, and therefore with you as well.”
Dear sister, God cannot give you a more valid testimony. Do not doubt your path, for every path is blessed when we offer our heart to Jesus Christ. Recognize His presence in your midst.

Dear Samuel, we are supposed to turn inward and discover more and more this spiritual life within us, just as Jesus did. He often withdrew from His outer world into His inner world. This can be read very well in the works of Max Seltmann. I understand it well in theory, but in practice I struggle with it. To be honest, I do not know how to enter my spiritual inner life. Nothing comes to me there… I have almost given up on it.
Can you give a few practical tips on how a beginner can best do this? I do have the will, but I do not really know how it is supposed to work. In daily life and in prayer I make an effort to be connected with Jesus and to do His will as well as I can, but I do not know how inner work of soul and spirit functions. I would truly be grateful for help. Thank you.
Dear sister, imagine that you are standing before Jesus. He stands there with outstretched arms, with a gentle smile, with loving eyes. At the sight of Him a feeling of security and of having arrived and been accepted comes over you. Then you go to Jesus as you are, unworthy and without works, for all good has been done by Him and is done by Him. Now you embrace one another; you sink deeply into His arms, against His divine and merciful Father’s breast. The embrace becomes so real in its intimacy that you think it is actually happening.
Now I will tell you something: in the spiritual world our thoughts have reality. Our imagination creates real worlds and real situations. Without love, however, these do not stand on divine foundations, but sink into the abyss of time, where they finally land in the judging womb of the Godhead. Only when the heavenly Father takes them into His heart are they redeemed and thus we as their creators.
But if you create thoughts of true love, they immediately enter the Father’s heart and connect you with His heart. For in truth thoughts of love are already of divine spirit, and selfless thoughts of love are already God’s presence.
Thus when you establish an intimate loving contact with Jesus Christ, you manifest the omnipresent Spirit of love in the person Jesus Christ. This means that according to its loving intimacy your imagining is reality in the spiritual world. It really happens, for because we are children of God, our consciousness has divine power, yes, creative power. If you do this and embrace your heavenly Father once or several times daily, wordlessly and in humility as a rediscovered and homecoming child of love, your longing will become a fire of love and in time your soul will become so filled with Jesus’ presence that He will take up permanent residence within you.
That is one part. The other is action. For at the same time we must give vitality to the Spirit of love within us through our deeds, through selfless love for our neighbor. We are indeed to love Jesus within us with all our strength, but above all He wants to work through us. Then divine life and vitality come over us; only then does a complete union of Father and child take place, only then do we fulfill our free destiny.
Thus many words are not necessary, nor any great spiritual fanfare or miracle-working, but simple humble love and the deeds arising from it in everyday life. That is what our heavenly Father wants from us so that we may become blissful in Him. It is all quite simple. Because of this, only the simple and humble child of God knows and can do it.

Hello, dear Samuel, if you can give me a hint toward a special consideration of obedience, I would be grateful to you.
Yes, obedience… blind compliance or seeing faithfulness… Whoever is merely obedient has not yet properly recognized divine love in his heart; he acts according to the intellect. Whoever is faithful has recognized divine love in his heart; he subordinates the intellect to love.
Obedience always has to do with fear of God; faithfulness grows from recognition of the true love of the heavenly Father for His children. In obedience dwells the law—and this demands obedience from you. In faithfulness dwells love—and love gives you the freedom of faithfulness.
So hear: if in certain situations on certain days you are far from love, then act in the silent and patient obedience of your soul that is at times still sleeping. If love touches you in certain situations on certain days, then act in the devoted faithfulness of your soul that is at times already awakened.
Finally your obedience will enter into devoted faithfulness according to the recognition that fills you of the truthfulness and vitality of divine love toward and within you.
This your heavenly Father tells you.

Concerning the words: It is indeed good when a person says, “Jesus with me,” but much better is: “Jesus, be in me and in those who are mine.”
Awareness is decisive, not the words. If I say, “Jesus be in me,” but am not at the same time consciously aware in loving trust of Jesus’ presence with and within me, it is of no use at all. For only love for Jesus Christ gives the words life; it is the vitality of every word, for the heart of every word is the Word of God, which is He Himself in eternity.
We therefore need the heart-connection to Jesus Christ; only then are the words `Jesus in me´ alive and only then does true life begin. For as long as through our distrust, lack of humility, and all-too-little action of love we breathe no life into our heavenly Father so that He can rise within us, we are truly still dead and speak dead words without power and without the force of love and life.
* * *
Dear Samuel, the key words awareness and heart-connection immediately bring to mind a question that has occupied me for some time: How do I recognize God’s will? Can you say something about that?
Dear brother, God’s will concerning your completely personal life you recognize only when Jesus has become alive within you. God’s will concerning basic and general life follows from the commandment Jesus gave us: `Love God above all and your neighbor as yourself.´
That is what comes first, and for it one needs patience and trust and above all humility. Therefore open your heart to Jesus Christ, always do good, even to those who do not do so toward you; in this way you act rightly according to God’s will, and in this way the risen Christ becomes alive in you. Then you recognize that the free will of your heart, of your divine heart-spark, of your divine identity, does not differ from God’s will. In the ground of our being we are inseparably one with God’s will, for we are essential and volitional parts of His heart.
Thus everything lies in and depends upon love for Jesus Christ. He dwells spiritually embodied within us, yet we must make His resurrection within us possible. Then we will become one life with Him and in Him and thus one will in eternity. Is that not wonderful? At this thought the heart is filled with divine joy—and this is already God’s joy within us and thus His vitality. And true joy is so important in this time of darkness; it is a door into the light, into the security of the love of our heavenly Father.

Dear Samuel, I am currently discussing human free will with an atheist. He is occupied with the idea that there is no free will: “Ultimately every decision is based on a multitude of experiences, DNA, upbringing, etc. According to this thesis, every decision we make has no alternative. I believe that there is indeed a strength for free will and that this is something divine—and that free will distinguishes us from non-human beings. How do you see it?”
Dear sister, I deliberately do not mention God here, so as not to blind or frighten `your´ atheist in his worldly sleep.
Basically every human being is endowed with free will. This consists in being able to decide for or against the good and the true. One can actually always do that, and this freedom of decision is the basis, meaning, and purpose of free will. Through earthly conditioning, public opinion-forming, and manipulation of consciousness, however, free will has been locked in a cage, into the corset of prescribed trains of thought and abysses of thought. And since even the voice of conscience has been distorted and manipulated, because in this inverted world truth and lies can no longer be distinguished, the human being has mutated into an externally controlled robot that is animated only from outside and no longer thinks, acts, and lives out of itself. He has lost contact with life itself—at least this applies to the greater part of humanity. There are only a few people who feel true vitality within themselves and live from it. They stand in free will and think and feel largely independently of the rigid global collective-consciousness cage.
Conclusion: the human being has himself put his free will in chains, has locked himself in a dungeon and thinks that this is his freedom. He does not see that the cage door is open—and if someone points it out to him, that person is considered crazy. Yet only outside this world of appearance and madness, that is, apart from worldly human thinking and inherited relative opinions, is the human being free in his willing and will. Only in this freedom does he recognize that it is so.

Dear Samuel, at the last meeting I had a memorable experience. When Jesus stood before each individual, one hand on His heart and the other on my shoulder, suddenly everything became very bright—before my right eye. Before the left it remained dark. Shortly afterward it happened once more. This has occupied me these days. Am I `blind in one eye´? If so, what is it? Does it have to do with that thin layer between bliss and dissatisfaction (which you spoke to me about)? I would be very glad if you could tell me something about it.
Dear sister, the right eye stands for the material world. The left eye, the eye of the heart, stands for the spiritual world. Jesus wishes to tell you by this that you already see through the world, yet occupy yourself with it too much. You should orient yourself still more toward spiritual life so that both eyes stand in harmony with divine love and the worldly eye does not have supremacy within you, through which dissatisfaction arises. This does not mean that you do not already lead a spiritual life, yet the weighting is not right. Look more with the heart at everything that meets you; then it will become bright and light in both eyes. Then balance and contentment will enter your soul; peace and love will be your whole being. This your heavenly Father tells you.

Dear Samuel, how do I deal with all the feelings that arise within me? When I am so filled with Jesus’ love that my heart glows with love for Him and I want only to be with Him? When my whole longing draws me to Him? Does this burning longing ever cease and transform into rest, into a feeling of safety and security? How do you do this?
Every day the longing for Jesus and my true homeland fills me so strongly that tears come to my eyes and I ask myself how I am supposed to manage to endure here on this Earth… especially also in view of the fact that my family is not walking this path with me and this often affects me deeply. I know that I am to hand it over to the Father and I try as well as I can to do so. I am simply often still weak and do not manage to persevere.
Dear sister, you are in a wonderful state, namely already in God’s presence. The burning longing within you bears witness to God’s love for you; it is the radiation, it is the soul of love. Therefore enter into the longing and you will find the source of longing: eternal love. Go to this source and drink from it; then your desire will be filled by and with God’s love. But also feel worthy to do so; otherwise you remain trapped in the pain of longing.
Your distress about your family is the instrument that drives you quickly into His arms and into His heart if you accept the situation in this way. Otherwise it will hinder you in love. Remain in trust; the Father wants your first love, for you are to be a bride of His heart. Therefore He has permitted you to walk this path isolated from your loved ones, alone with Him. He will take care of your family in the way that is necessary. Dear sister, truly, your burning longing is the divine promise of your eternal bliss in the heart of your heavenly Father.

Dear Samuel, what can I imagine under the term `spirit´? Is that the form of life in the beyond? I also so often read about the activity of nature spirits and that everything consists of body, soul, and spirit. Is spirit then also information?
Dear brother, I will explain the trinity of body, soul, and spirit to you by means of the word: the body of the word is the acoustics or writing; the soul of the word is the meaning and purpose of the word in the dimension in which it reveals itself; the spirit of the word is the divine statement or the divine core, that is, the life of the word. The human being is constituted in the same way, and creation as a whole is formed in this way.
Spirit, as I see, you want to comprehend with the intellect, but that does not work. Spirit itself can `only´ be experienced, for it is a consciousness, a self-conscious being; thinking about it cannot illuminate the concept of spirit for you; indeed, such thoughts in your present state of soul-development lead you into an impenetrable and incomprehensible labyrinth.
Concerning the disproportionate desire for spiritual knowledge, the wisdom of the Godhead speaks: “True spiritual life is boundlessly manifested divine self-consciousness as separated unity in multiplicity within unity. Spirit is life and death at once, is birth and destruction, is untouchable and touching everything, is impenetrable and penetrating everything, is the eternal Nothing and therein the eternal All, is the Infinite in the finite, which is not and is.”
Dear brother, for now this is nothing for us; it only confuses us. We should concern ourselves with love for the heavenly Father and from this with love for our neighbors. This opens to us the knowledge we need according to our spiritual development in order to penetrate still more deeply into divine love.
To this the Father says: “Let it be enough for you that spirit is love and love is spirit. Become like children and love in this way; then you will be penetrated by My Spirit, then you will pass over and enter into spiritual life, which is My life.”

Dear Samuel, could you please explain this statement a little further: “… and yet the sacrifice of crucifixion would not necessarily have been needed; there were other ways to the goal.”
I have so far read something similar only in volume 11 by Leopold Engel. In volume 5 of GEJ, 220, it says concerning this: “The highest pride can be destroyed only by the deepest humility, and it is therefore necessary that such a thing (the crucifixion) be done to Me.”
In my view, a different course for the history of humanity’s salvation is not possible.
Dear brother, every event of this creation stands under an `if and but´ of the free will of created beings. Had Adam and Eve committed no sin, there would be no original sin—their descendants would likewise have remained without sin. The history of humanity would have been entirely different; Jesus’ sacrificial path would not have been necessary.
Yet the crucifixion became necessary because human vice, falsehood, and godlessness increased more and more after and despite the cleansing of the Earth through the Flood. Their corruption required the sacrifice of love; otherwise we would have been lost forever.
What would have happened if people had not wanted to crucify Jesus? From God it was not a determination, but a permission.
Dear brother, then people would not have been so evil and corrupt either. The crucifixion had already been intended and planned by Satan since the time of Enoch. He drove human beings to this deed, created evil bloodlines that were entirely devoted to him up to the time of the scheming Pharisees, who sought by every means to eliminate Him. They were puppets of the satanic spirit.
So it is again today: there are satanic family clans and organizations that wish to kill the Spirit of God in human hearts. This is another long-planned deed of Satan, which his puppets are now carrying out.
The sacrifice of crucifixion would therefore not have been necessary if human pride had not been so enormous and stubborn. Yet it became necessary because there were people like the Pharisees who demanded death. For had Jesus not allowed it to happen, human beings would not have been redeemed, the work of redemption would not have been perfect, and the wound in God’s heart would have remained. Therefore God’s love had to enter into this deep humility in order to reach even the most deeply fallen human beings and make the way back possible for them too. Thus it is a perfect work of redemption. One can never thank and love Jesus enough for it.
Yes, because God is perfect, His death on the cross and His resurrection contain an understanding of the effects of this deed that is unattainable for us. Every action God brings about is in itself infinite and eternal. If we could see this as it is, an endless complexity would open before us in which we would lose ourselves—yes, the core of our being would dissolve. The entrance and access possible to us into the death on the cross and the resurrection of Jesus Christ are His love and mercy. Only therein can we approach the Easter event and enter into understanding and comprehending divine action.
Only in the living recognition and fulfillment of and with God’s love and mercy does the necessary light of knowledge proper to love fill us, progressively illuminating and enlightening for us the backgrounds of all divine action. Yes, we may certainly be eager for knowledge in spiritual-divine things, for in this the awakening and activity of our spirit show themselves. Yet first should stand the striving for love, for love of our heavenly Father. Then He gives us the nourishment that also satisfies the hunger of our thirst for knowledge.

Dear Samuel, as children of God are we never to grow up, to become mature? Are we eternally to remain `only´ children? Children want to become independent; will we ever become fully independent as children of God, destined ourselves to become creators and create, thus one day taking over the baton from God? Do we ever reach the goal or does it continue forever—or in a circle?
Freedom? Is freedom only there to do what God wills, or to do what we love? If we loved God, if we identified ourselves with Him, would our will also be His will!? Does God live entirely in His creation, does He become absorbed in it?
Dear brother, it continues forever; the way is the goal in eternal life, whereas the way through the ages is not the goal. And yet eternity is contained in every moment of time—so to speak as an entrance gate to eternal-divine life.
Because God is infinite in Himself, we will never reach an end in Him; we will penetrate ever more deeply into His being, into His love, into His wisdom. More precisely, He is infinity itself, and fundamentally He is creation itself, for we live in a spiritual universe; we are free thoughts in the infinite realm of consciousness of the Godhead, and there is no outside to it. And as His thoughts, we too have this infinite realm of consciousness within us, in order throughout eternity to be able increasingly to receive God’s being and life and then, together with Him, to create wonderful universes together with the beings belonging to them.
Yes, as God’s true children we receive all divine qualities; we are independently free in God’s will, and this alone is perfect freedom. Only therein do we find eternal bliss, for His will is our life; from it we were born, from God’s will of love—it is our natural spiritual element. Dear brother, actually everything is so simple.
Intellect: “It cannot be that simple; then I would have nothing left to do. It must be complicated, otherwise anyone could recognize God. Besides, I absolutely must accumulate knowledge; knowledge is my nourishment, my life!”
Heart: “You cling to the nourishment of death. You always recognize only fragments within infinite multiplicity and selfishly nourish and fill yourself with falsehood. You move in the labyrinth of doubt and search in darkness for divine support that you cannot find in the relative world of experience. Your task is to recognize that I am your teacher and guide, that you are to serve me so that I may fill you with the Spirit of love and truth. For in me dwells the simplicity of love. Humble yourself in love for God; only then will you attain true knowledge, true wisdom, and divine freedom. You must pass through the eye of the needle of love for God, naked, stripped of the world; only then will you see, for you are blind and deaf to God’s Word.
Hear, human being: you are dead when you submit yourself to your worldly intellect, and you will live only when you find God in me and love Him with all your strength, with all your courage, trust, and surrender. For only in me is the light of life; only in me do you find the fruits of the tree of life.
This your heart tells you; this the eternal Word of God within me tells you, which is God Himself.”
