The Words of the Father were received between July 2022 and February 2023. They are arranged chronologically.
“Dear Jesus, once again I have done things that are not good, that harm me, burden and oppress my soul—and that separate us.”
“My child, I see you apart from your weaknesses. On the one hand there is the human being created by Me—on the other there is sin. There is the child who falls and rises again, who struggles and fights in the earthly battle of life, the weak and needy child of My heart—and there is sin, which continually takes it captive.
Thus My left eye sees My child free of all guilt and sin; the right eye sees creation fallen into sin in itself, that is, sin in its own nature. And My heart gathers both—the original and true purity of My child from Me and the universal distortion caused by the Fall that works within it—into one gaze of My mercy.
In another sense, I see My children more with the left eye, which signifies My divine Fatherly love, and the children of the world with My right eye, which signifies My divine justice. And here too both glances merge into one heartfelt gaze of My merciful love, which, however, works differently according to surrender to Me and love for Me.
But you must understand My eyes spiritually, just as at root you are to understand the whole world spiritually—as you once understood it before you entered matter. For in truth and reality there is only one spiritual world as the sole reality, and everything outside it is an image describing it. Thus you yourselves, in your materially visible being and existence, are images of your divine identity and reality and therefore of Mine. And your outer being is the judged fallen nature of My primordial creation; your soul is the freedom of fallen humanity that is in need of mercy, and the spirit of your heart is the childship of My heart.
So see yourselves in this sense; regard yourselves apart from sin as children of My love; live your way into your hearts, where My heart pulses to the rhythm of My eternal Godhood.
These are My words to comfort you and all My children in your weakness, your self-will, and your bondage to matter. Love Me and not the world; then I will fill you.
Amen, your Father who dwells in your hearts, Amen.”

Dear brothers and sisters, as one increasingly detaches one’s consciousness from matter, the soul detaches itself a little more from the body. In this state I had and still have the memory of my spiritual existence and saw and still see how, before birth, I was able to move freely in the Spirit. This discrepancy with my present state led me, out of a spontaneous negative reaction, to complain: “Now I am chained to this body, locked in, imprisoned in heavy matter…!”
Then I heard:
“The human body is to be a temple of God. The human soul is the forecourt within it. The heart is the Ark of the Covenant and I am the Spirit within it. Do not love your body, but honor it and keep it pure and clean. Voluntarily remove from yourself, according to My instructions, all dirt and all worldly-mindedness; then I will not have to cleanse it.
Yes, My children occasionally need a small push; that hurts, but when the push is recognized as an arm of My love, great blessing comes from it and My child continues strengthened along My paths. Therefore do not complain about your body of flesh, for it was given to you to attain the greatest goal of this creation—the divinization of the soul in love for Me.”
At another time great sadness came over me and I said:
“My Father, I have lost contact with You again and feel lonely without You.”
He said: “My child, I use this state of yours, which you yourself have caused, to fan your longing and desire for Me more strongly once again. You know that My heart wishes for nothing more ardently than to be together with you as Father and child. Have a little more patience—yes, all of you My children, have a little more patience, remain in faith and faithfulness; soon you will feel and see that I keep My Word. Soon My Spirit will fill you; I will fill you with truth and love—permanently. Amen.”
* * *
“My child, you wonder why I remain so devoted to you in your wretchedness and self-will. As once before, so today I go to the needy, to the sick and infirm, to sinners. I go to those, and to you, whom I have touched and who now urgently need My aid, so that in and from this echo of Mine within your souls—experienced and felt as a continuously increasing longing in your hearts—I may touch you anew each day, so that My Word as My life becomes alive within you.
So speak with Me: ‘Lord, I am not worthy that You should enter my house, but speak only one word and my soul will be healed.’ You know this one word, and all My children know it—it is called love. The body of love here is the visible carrying out of the deed; the soul of love is the decision as the will to the deed; and love itself is the life of the deed. And all of this together is Me, while in your willing I am your freedom—understand it rightly.
Yes, My children, first and foremost I come for you; I came for you and I am here for you who hope for, fearfully await, and struggle for My presence, who are entered in the Book of Life, which I wrote before the creation of the world in order to set and maintain a divine measure in the course of time and eternity.
But you must not think that I thereby established a fixed destiny; it is a living book within and as the framework of My fundamental divine order, and the thoughts within it remain free and can determine themselves according to their will. One way or the other.
Make this clear to yourselves: Only if you truly want to become free, if you feel this willing through and through within yourselves and seriously accept it by integrating it into your inner and outer existence, does it lead you into My will, where a union of your weak willing with My divine will takes place.
You must therefore take this humble step; in this way you make your names real in the Book of Life, in this way your divine and true identity becomes alive, in this way you confirm your freedom in Me.
This I speak today to you who are wretched and poor in your striving; for that very reason I give you all My mercy and love.
Amen, your Father in Jesus Christ, Amen.”
* * *
“My son, see, I come to you with My mercy, just as I come to all My children who need My mercy. For there are scarcely any among those called and appointed on this Earth who live according to My recognized will; rather, they live and experience their spirituality solely in My grace and through My grace. Thus I hold and preserve you in spiritual life, and without this support you would not endure in the world, you would not walk at My side.
Thus you do not yet stand on your own feet; rather, I hold you, you stand through Me, you stand in My mercy—according to your striving; but not in divine independence, as would be necessary through voluntary activity in the divine life of love and thereby in the rebirth of the Spirit from Me.
Now, the ray of grace of My love can carry you through this world until your passage into the realm beyond, but have you thereby reached the goal of your life? No, for you have not realized your divine destiny, have not reached spiritual maturity in seriously active surrender to My will of love, which makes you true children of God. I am then not your possession; rather, you remain tenants of My divinity according to My grace.
If there is negligence on your part in walking the path to Me so that you reach the goal you set yourselves for this earthly life, it is at times, and indeed often, necessary for My merciful love to send a small cross. This may be a bodily illness caused by yourselves that I have until now kept away from you, or a distress of the soul that drives you to Me. Not that you are to be punished by it, and this is no threat either, but it is a gift of grace so that in the valley of humility you recognize your negligence and nothingness. And so that you once again acquire longing for Me, for Me to help you in distress, and in the help recognize My love.
My children, time is pressing. For this reason I too must press you. Therefore make an effort and be watchful, and recognize My love in the coming time of distress; then distress will become the stirrup of love. Accept what still enters your life this year, whether concerning your bodily condition or the general events of the world. Remain in trust; then you can always rely on Me.
Look at the beauty of love, look at the life of love and bring it into your everyday life; in this way you bring Me into your day, into your night. Then in active life of love you will be penetrated by My Spirit and thereby become independent children of God, living in My presence for eternity.
Once again I emphasize: Pain humbles by force; love penetrates the soul tenderly with humility. Just as you do not like to see your children suffer, neither do I. Yet at times necessity requires it in order to avert greater harm from the child.
So you see, I am a God of clear words and not one who prettifies things. Take these words also as a measure of your love for Me. For if fear comes upon you because of them, you have not yet recognized Me in heart and truth. But if My words today fill you with love and you recognize My Fatherly care within them, you are already near My heart.
Amen, this I say, Jesus Christ, inaccessible God from eternity to eternity to My creatures, embracing and caressing Father from eternity to eternity to My children.”
* * *
“So write, My child, for My words are life, and the essence of life is love, is Me. And when I give you My words, I give Myself to you in the Spirit, which gives life to the words and is the ground of the words, from which they are born as spiritual-divine nourishment for those who hunger for this food of Mine, for Me.
But you must receive this food attentively and consciously in the heart of your soul, that is, chew it well and not gulp it down; otherwise you gain nothing from it, because the spiritual nourishment is not ignited through and with the spark of your heart and is excreted again undigested. Then you may contemplate a thousand words from My mouth and no divine life will ever arise within you.
But if you allow yourselves to be penetrated and worked through by spiritual nourishment, if you receive it into the depth of your soul, into your longing heart, and there contemplate it for a longer while with the eyes of love, then you in a sense digest My Word and make it your own, and thereby make Me your own.
But because most of My children gulp down My words in abundance and merely delight in them, yet do not or only rarely live according to them, and because they usually lack patience in the rushing stream of time, since they have better things to do than seek and awaken Me within themselves, and in many respects even resist penetrating more deeply into their own divine being and thus into My life, I give you My words only occasionally through this writer of Mine.
Take this to heart; read slowly and little, remain with the words that touch you, occupy yourselves with them and carry them in your hearts through the day and act according to them; then they become alive within you, then I become alive within you.
Once again I say: It is the Spirit that gives you life, not the form. What is the Spirit of the Word? The Spirit is the life of the Word. If you live My Word, the Word lives in you—and the Word is God and God is the Word. Acting according to My Word divinizes your soul; you must internalize this, for this alone is what matters.
And the more you are able to love Me, the more luminous and clear My words become, the more you are penetrated by the Spirit of truth, the more divine your doing and refraining become. Then you will truly be called children of God in all your being and nature. See, this is what I have prepared for you.
Moreover I say again: Do not wait for My return, for I am already here. Receive Me, and you will become aware of it. Amen, My children, Amen.”
* * *
“So I come to you, My child. I have heard your words, your prayer; it is the love in prayer that touches My heart, not the shell of the word. The shell of the word is dead; it is made alive by the love within it—and that is Me. Thus in love for Me a union takes place in the word; in the word the child becomes one with Me. And then I can speak these living words in the heart of My child, and the child passes them on to the brothers and sisters who cannot yet hear this Word in their hearts, in their souls, and yet long for it, long to be with Me; the pull of their hearts toward Me is strong—and yet so is the pull toward the world.
And so there is a back and forth, a raging and fighting and struggling on the one side, and on the other a joy, a great hope and confidence in My coming. And yet I emphasize it again and again: I am already here. I am present in the Spirit, I have returned; you only need to receive Me. My return depends on your opening. And so My return, as you have already emphasized, has different effects in this world—according to how My Spirit is received.
Even worldly-minded people can receive My Spirit and in My sense fight for truth and serve truth—but not in contact with Me, and often they fight a desperate battle. But My children are not to despair, and neither are they to fight this battle against the world; rather, they are to love Me. For I have already fought and I have won. And I want to manifest this victory of Mine, this victorious presence of Mine, within you. This divine manifestation—that is what matters now and always.
No child is excluded from accomplishing this, for I have already brought My little sheep together, I have already leveled the paths, I have erected enclosures and fenced them in; the protection is My angels. They form the fence around My flocks and carry the light from flock to flock. And love is the network—and this is My body; together with other flocks you form My body. And according to your surrender and according to your earnest willing to serve Me, to give Me your life and consecrate it to Me, I can walk across this Earth.
Once again: I am here and I am forming My body. For I come to My children before I come to the world; then I come into the world in you. And I also come in the form of distress. For those who do not receive Me, those who live in lies, are punished by the lie. And so on the one hand I come precisely through you, and on the other I stretch out My long arm over this Earth and give it a powerful blow so that death may be shaken awake. I still awaken many from death to life; even in the final minute I am here, I am ready, My heart is open. With one eye I look toward the Earth and I close one eye.
And so, you know what you are to do. I bring you together so that you strengthen one another, so that you form a unity in love, also in personal presence, in personal closeness, in getting to know one another. And so that you touch one another heart to heart, that you cover disagreements with My love. You are to form a unity so that I may stride cheerfully and firmly across this Earth.
This I give you today, My children. Rejoice, for I protect you. Do not value the life of the body so highly; value the life of the soul, for that alone counts. And whoever I call back is to rejoice and have no concern that he is missing something, that he can no longer perform a service. For I have set the measure for every individual life of My children, and you can look joyfully toward death, the death of the body—and toward the life of the soul. For this is not your home; your home is Me, it is the heaven within you and thereby in Me.
Amen, My children, and once again I say it and place beneath My words the sign of truth: Amen.”
* * *
“So write, My child, words of life for those of good will, for those who long, for those who are true, for those who love.
The time of My return to this Earth has come, as it was and is announced through the millennia by My prophets. The time has come in which this fallen world is cleansed with My love.
But My love has one effect and another. Those who live for the world and for themselves experience My renewed descent as a power of fate that brings misery, distress, and death. For many will now and soon fall into great distress for the cleansing and purification of their souls. A distress that bears My name in the sense of divine order and law, in order to save what can still be saved. And many will be called out of the flesh that causes them so much concern and for which alone they live, yet in material madness it brings the death of the soul and is humanity’s death and ruin.
My children already experience Me now; they will become increasingly conscious of My presence. They too often fall into distress. This brings them closer to My heart and makes their souls soft and humble. And this is truly necessary, for I have called you by your names, I have appointed you to belong to Me—I have promised you redemption, your names are entered in the Book of Life.
And you see, I am already bringing you together and uniting you in the Spirit, in Me. Your singing and praying together has been laid upon you by Me and brings great blessing to you and to the world, for I am in your hearts and it is these that sing and pray and carry Me out into the world. It does not matter whether the singing is especially beautiful in vocal terms; the Spirit alone determines the beauty of a song in the beyond. Thus what is revealed in the spiritual world is not an earthly correct or incorrect pitch, but the love in the singing reveals the beauty of the music. The acoustic shell remains behind in matter—just as with the human being the shell remains behind and love determines his state in the beyond.
Yes, heaven joins in your song; it is truly a joy—in your souls and in the heaven within your hearts, and both joys are united in My love. And My love in turn is what initiates and gives life to the song. Thus the divine circle of eternal becoming and eternal being closes, for being is contained in becoming and becoming in being. Understand it rightly. Amen, My children, Amen.”
* * *
“My child, write this: What is to become realized within you is love. And I say it to all: What is to become realized within you is love. I am love. In Me you find rest and peace and security. If the world burdens you, it is a sign that I do not live within you. The more materially oriented you are, the more the conduct of the world burdens you. If you are in Me and I in you, you see and walk through the world with divine consciousness. This takes from you all worry and fear and frees you from the burden of earthly-satanic events.
Do not look at the collapsing walls of the world-house; do not walk through the chambers of ruin and lostness; pay no attention to the slave-drivers and liars; let the world be the world. Look at Me, who have opened My heart wide to let in the needy and fallen, the worried and sorrowful. Come quietly to Me; I will let you feel My love so that you become aware of the love of God, so that you see that I am a true Father to My children. Yes, you are to feel My tender embrace in stillness and intimacy with Me, which frees you and draws you away from the surface of the world into divine awareness and security.
And I say it again: Do not fixate on My return, otherwise you will not recognize My presence. At My general arrival I come with the sword of truth in My hand to exercise justice. By then you are already to be prepared and filled with My Spirit. That is why I speak with you: to draw you to Me before the final days, to give you divine home already now. Live with regard to My presentness in your hearts and not with regard to the final events. Now I am in your hearts opened inwardly, and I am there forever.
Amen, Jesus, who knocks at your hearts day and night. Amen.”

Hour of Celebration in Holzach
“My children, you have prayed for your relatives, for your acquaintances, for your loved ones, for those who are close to your hearts, and this is what I give you and what I require of you—this intercessory prayer that is so greatly needed in this time and that I place within you. For without My Spirit you would not be able to pray for your brothers and sisters. And this is already a sign of My presence, that I dwell in your heart. And yet I also say: I am lonely!—Yes, how is that to be understood? I, the almighty God, a lonely one?
Heaven is full of My children and the universe is filled with souls who cling to Me. And yet I am lonely in your hearts. In every heart of My children, in every single heart, I am at home, and here I wait for you—and there I am alone. With a certain divine longing I wait for you to open the door to Me. For you are the ones who must open the door in order to let Me enter, in order to let My Spirit of love flow out into your souls. And it is longing that drives you to do this, that leads you there, that seeks My nearness at all times.
Yes, My children, and so I have brought you together today. And not one of you is here because it happened by chance; I willed it so. And now I ask you: Each of you has a burden of your own to carry—not only in intercession can you lay something at My feet, lay it at My heart, but also something of your own, a burden of your own, lay it at My feet, which I receive and place in My heart. Give Me this burden, this one thought that repeatedly presses you to the ground, that often takes away your joy in life and your confidence. And I receive it and place it in My heart and give it back to you—transformed, converted, from burden into joy, into a gift. And I place it back into your heart as a good, as a divine good that you have carried for a time, a certain time, and which I now take from you in this hour. Yet it is necessary that you also do this with firm trust and confidence and faith, and not think: ‘Will He really do it?’
Yes, I do it, I am ready. Are you also ready to give Me your burden? For every burden is a blessing, and in every cross—as I have often said—a treasure is hidden. I give this treasure back to you, and you can then pass it on to the people whom I lead to you.
This, My children, is what I wanted to tell you now—at this hour. And so My blessing is in this room, which is filled with light. And many deceased ones are here as well and are allowed to witness this community, this praying, singing, and loving together. For I do not call My children together merely to open a small community; there are always thousands, countless ones, who share in it according to their spiritual state. And so some see this room as a distant light and some already have a greater share in what is taking place here.
Be aware of this! Where I am, heaven is open. Where I am, there is grace and blessing without end, and for those who love Me I am there without measure or limit and shower the soul with the gifts of heaven. Amen.”
* * *
“My son, you ask what love is and how you can recognize it. Thus you ask who I am and how you can recognize Me. See, you are a part of Me, therefore I am within you—yes, I am your life and within it your love. I am therefore in you, I dwell in your heart. You may take this quite literally and practically.
You are a threefold being of body, soul, and spirit. You know your body; your soul—you—you know superficially and sometimes a little more deeply, namely when I touch you with My light of love. And from where do I touch you? From your spirit spark that dwells in your heart and that is actually I Myself as your share in Me. This divine life of yours is love, and this love is your life.
Now see, when you do something good for someone from the heart, you feel love and joy in giving. This is because I do it and take you with Me in doing so. If you love this self-giving love, you love Me. If you love doing good, you love Me. The more often you live in this love, the closer you come to Me—and the more intense your love becomes thereby in Me, the more you unite with Me, the closer we draw together.
Love love, then I will arise within you, and then you will see and walk with Me with open eyes. Then your life will become one single giving, and only then will you understand love divinely. Then you will truly recognize Me and I will call you by your true name. Then you will rise from your earthly grave with Me, who gave My life for you.
This is what your heavenly Father tells you. Amen, My child, Amen.”
* * *
“My children, when I speak to you, My Word resounds through creation and creates new life. It creates new life in the sense of new birth from Me and creates new life in the sense of redemption of life already created. Thus this Word too is powerful to lead you onward, to stir and spur you to walk your path more earnestly and truthfully. For the process of the division of spirits advances rapidly, to separate the chaff from the wheat, to divide light from darkness, to separate night from day.
I make a boundary between the water above and the water below, the water of eternal life and the water of transience. Thus I give My children the water of life and mercy from the heavens, and I give the children of the world the bitter water of temporal experience. Thus everyone receives what he asks of Me.
According to this division two groups form, which in turn divide into many communities of souls and are led into realms and dwellings corresponding to their states.
Thus in the division of spirits now taking place, in the classification below or above, there is only either-or; yet within the two parties there are many shades and levels up and down, both in receiving the humble light of love and thus in experiencing My presence and filling with the Spirit, and also great differences among those imprisoned in lovelessness, self-will, and pride and therefore differences in experiencing the cold night of distance from God.
I have called and appointed you into the light. This call is no guarantee of redemption, as you know, for your will is and remains free. And yet you stand in a special grace because your time of homecoming has arrived in the course of your life-development thus far. For some, after eons as wanderers through time and eternity in the great space of creation; for others, after a short time, in order, as angels who once did not fall, now to bear flesh in this time, to serve Me in truth and love and at the same time to attain the free childship of God. And some are taken from the fallen soul of the Earth, and they too may now end their cycle of death and transience in order to return home to the Father’s house.
My children, time is pressing; soon events at the visible surface will come blow upon blow—and creeping beneath it, the spirit of the age binds those who belong to it ever more tightly in its net of lies and false love. Delusion and blindness will increase, but you are to see. Therefore close your eyes to the world and open your hearts to Me; that is the way of redemption.
Amen, your Father in Jesus Christ, Amen.”
* * *
Our beloved Father Jesus, our hearts are touched by Your love—and so we come to You because You draw us, because You guide and lead us, because You have brought us together as one unity; a unity that You form within us. And as a unity You give us Your Word, the Word that comes from Your heart and that You place in our hearts.
“Yes, My children, My Word is love, and love is what I pour out everywhere, for I Myself am the Spirit of love. And you were born from love and you return again to love. And the path you walk is the path through darkness, through distance. Having gone into the distance, you lost Me, and so I too went into the distance to seek you, to call you, and to find you.
You are foundlings of My love. Yet still—even though you have heard My call—you move in darkness. My light shines into the darkness, the light of My love. And you are to orient yourselves by it; it is like a line that I have stretched from My heart to your hearts. You can grasp this line, this ray of light, and follow this ray of light through the darkness, through the labyrinth of this world, in order to come home again. And My Word too is the ray, for Word and love are one and that is Me. And if you follow My Word, you come to Me.
Therefore in this time I have sent many proclaimers of the Word out into the world, voices crying in the wilderness, through whom I speak, to whom I have given the grace of My presence—according to their surrender and their trust.
My children, the darkness of the world is increasing; death will reap its harvest. Soon a time will come that demands much from you. Perhaps you can imagine it now, but when the events are here the shock will be great. It will in part be a creeping process that tries to pull you down into the realms of My adversary through fear and worry, and also through false thoughts that can lead you away from the ray of light. And there will be outward events that likewise fill you with concern and raise questions within you: ‘Is all of this really still according to Your will, dear God?!’
Then I say: Yes, everything must run its course. I have everything in view, I see everything to the end and beyond. And therefore I say: Remain in trust, no matter what happens, no matter what is taken from you, no matter what you must and will suffer—more or less.
This is not your home. This Earth is a waystation for you, a school, a place of training, a place of divinization. And everything around you, everything material, your possessions, all events—you are isolated from them in Me. Let go of the things that bind your soul to the world; the thoughts that keep you captive, that make you cling to what you believe you need, what you think is necessary—and yet I say: No, your earthly desires are mostly not necessity.
I will preserve your lives; I will place a protective mantle around you, and I have already done so. But what truly matters is that you remain faithful to Me, that you trust Me, that you entrust yourselves and your loved ones to Me. Even if death enters your families, your circle of relatives and acquaintances, bodily death is only a change from the side of death to the side of life, from matter into spirit—naturally according to the condition of the soul. But death does not have the horror that is repeatedly talked into you.
And when death reaps its harvest, let it happen; do not let yourselves be pulled down into the specter of death, but remain with Me, for I am life. And when you are with Me, when you have life within you and feel it, then you look upon death with the eyes of life; thus death itself becomes life within you—that is the resurrection in Me.
My children, awaken in the morning with thoughts of Me; seek Me again and again during the day, in your everyday life, in your business and activities; give Me brief thoughts of love and faithfulness. And in the evening, when you go to bed, give Me one more thought and one wish for Me to bless you. And pray for this world, for people, whether good or evil. For I too, as you know, let My light shine, let the sun shine over the whole Earth. So you too are to discern, but not condemn those who serve evil.
Amen, My beloved, I bless you, Jesus, Amen.”

“My children, there is a great difference in loving. If you try to love because I tell and ask you to, and you receive My words only with your intellect and therefore also want to love from it, then you love with your human nature, you love from your own imperfect willing. But the love of the intellect is always bound to one’s own satisfaction, to selfishness, and this love falsifies My love and darkens it. Then you wonder why your efforts bear no fruit, why you are constantly struggling with the world and do not come closer to Me, why I do not reveal Myself within you. But if you receive My words in the heart, if you follow them with the heart and act with the heart, this is already My acting in and through you and is My presence within you.
Then you say: ‘Dear Father, but there is an effort, even if we still live very much in the intellect! We do want to, but it does not go so well. We find it difficult to love You.’
Then I say: My little children, that is why I speak to you—to enlighten you, to prove My love to you daily, so that in these divine revelations you may recognize My heart. Yes, I take your blind intellectual willing and loving into My heart and give it back to you as a gift of love, place it into your heart, and thereby lead you from the head into the heart.
You are to be little children and not display worldly self-confidence; you are not to seek and find your worth in the self-display of your talents, your earthly success, and your possessions, but in Me. I let Myself be found only by a humble child’s heart that recognizes Me both as Creator God and as its most beloved Father.
Such children I want to draw to Myself; such children you are to be, for your greatest bliss and, yes, thereby also for Mine. Therefore bow your intellect in humility from the head into the heart; let your matter-bound thoughts sink into the free love of your hearts. There and here I dwell and wait for you to open the door to Me so that I can enter your souls and penetrate you with My presence. For I have already come for you and am here.
Yes, I am here, God from eternity to eternity, God of your hearts.
Amen, Amen, Amen.”

“My children, there is a great difference between the children of the world and My children, both as regards the quality of the path to be walked and with regard to redemption.
If a person goes through his earthly existence in self-will and selfishness, trusting only himself and the world, he must prepare his own paths and walk them without Me. Dark fate is his companion; he does not know the meaning and purpose of his existence and therefore seeks them in the labyrinth of this world, whose paths all lead to ruin. He must himself bear and work off his failings and sins over often endless periods of time. These are creatures of divine order, which is the strict law of cause and effect in the course of all events.
If a person has surrendered himself to Me, entrusted his earthly existence and life to Me, asked Me in humility for guidance and for redemption from his death, I call him My child and then treat him accordingly. I show him the meaning and purpose of himself and of the world, and I guide his paths in such a way that, remaining in childlike faithfulness, he safely finds his way into My heart.
For Me as all-forgiving and merciful love, it therefore makes no difference what sins My children have burdened themselves with in their earthly existence thus far, for on the cross I have already blotted out their sins with My blood. With My crucifixion and resurrection I prepared the path from the outermost hell, from the blackest darkness to My heart; I kindled new life in the heart of death and thus connected all that had fallen once more with divine life.
This means: I forgive My children all sins without exception, no matter how grave they may be. In the surrender of My child to My love I write his sins in the sand; I take him out of My law into My mercy, for for My children I took all guilt upon Myself and atoned for it on the cross—this atonement I give back to you as divine redemption. And so that you can finally leave sin behind and not fall back into death, not fall from grace into judgment, I accompany and guide you according to your love for Me into My heart. First in the outwardly given word, then in the inner Word. Consider this privilege.
Yes, I have made you seeing in the world that is ruled by the blind, who in turn lead the blind. I have called you to reveal to the world My light, which I kindled in the darkness 2,000 years ago. Therefore you went into the darkness of death and, out of love for Me, took on its characteristics there, in order first to overcome it within yourselves with My help and thus, as pathbreakers of divine love, to open doors of hearts into My heart for your fallen and deluded brothers and sisters. Yes, thus I speak to My children. Your Father Jesus, Amen.”
Samuel: To this I would like to say that there are sins in which the soul is completely hardened, such as extreme pride or avarice, or sins that have drawn the soul deeply into the flesh, such as excessive or deviant sexuality and/or an addiction that has completely taken the soul captive and determined it. There great distress is needed so that the person becomes free, so that he lets go of and ceases his distorted conduct; yet with God all things are possible, and even these souls He can lead into His Father’s house.
There are messages that say that if one has committed certain sins, one can no longer reach the Father in the highest heaven. I do not share this statement, for I myself am proof that it is not true, since for decades I dragged God’s love into the deepest filth and grievously sinned against the Spirit of love, which is the Holy Spirit—and now I may take up residence in the innermost love of the heavenly Father in order to report and bear witness from there and here of the one true God, whose name is Jesus Christ and who is love, love, and love again.
If a person truly and sincerely seeks and wills God’s love and humbles himself before God in his sin, then the Father cannot do otherwise than draw His child to Himself in order to make him happy forever. His act of redemption is sufficient for every sin, however terrible it may be—for His love is boundless. But only in His love does the human being become completely free of every burden. As long as we are not filled with the Holy Spirit, we live in imperfection and are subject to death. But until then we may live in His grace, which prepares us to receive the Spirit of love from His heart.
And this is true and certain and is testified by the Father within me: This will happen to the children of God who do not leave the path of love and faithfulness. They will experience what the apostles once were allowed to experience after Jesus’ ascension. This will be our true Pentecost and our final redemption in Jesus Christ.
Many people believe and believed that they had received the Holy Spirit, but this is not the actual divine event. For in truth this process is the inbirth into God—and that is a different dimension of faith from what is commonly assumed and imagined among many believers. For the child of God who is permitted to experience this baptism will be and already is an inhabitant of heaven, an inhabitant of the heart of God, and will reveal this to the world.

“My beloved, I give you My Word through children whom I have awakened and who already live from Me. I gave and give you manifold and abundant spiritual nourishment through human mouths. You are blessed with heart-touching music capable of raising your souls into the Spirit. Thus I care for you outwardly so that you may penetrate more deeply into My love, in order finally to live from your innermost being, from My inward care.
When your souls are deeply touched by sublime and loving words and sounds, you feel close to Me and you are so in a grace-filled way. But when the world jostles you again, because I provide you from outside with a different nourishment that does not touch you gently but challenges you, so that you may confess and recognize yourselves in love for Me and thereby touch My heart even in adverse events, you complain and ask for the meaning.
See, as long as your thoughts continually revolve around yourselves and the flood of thoughts crushes you because you yourselves are the center of your existence and not I, the soul’s confusion and self-will and self-love will repeatedly touch you painfully, and the Spirit cannot then lead you to Me. As your own center you live day after day in self-pity and worry; the darkness of your soul denies you divine understanding and comprehension. After being lifted by inspired words and sublime music, you soon sink back into your fallen selfhood because you have not allowed Me to be your center and foundation of life.
And here the spirits are divided. Life in Me is simple and not complicated. Constant brooding and fateful questioning drive the Spirit of love from within you and thus the light that necessarily should and must shine for you in the events of these final days.
I am your life. Awaken Me within you through simple childlike love for Me; give Me vitality within you through active love of neighbor. For it is not the sublime feelings produced by gifts of grace that make you free; active love alone raises you to true children of God.
Yes, bring both together, My grace and your deeds of love; then the Spirit of love that dwells in your hearts will penetrate your souls. Then you will no longer be tossed back and forth by the stormy waves of the world-sea, but will rest happily and contentedly in Me in every situation of your earthly existence.
Amen, your heavenly Father, in search of true children of His love. Amen.”
* * *
Dear brothers and sisters, the preceding word touched some sore points. It is indeed the case that we repeatedly like to blame our unhealthy states of soul and problem areas, as well as distorted patterns of behavior and trouble spots, on outward circumstances. In spiritual elation we declare ourselves ready to follow; in the necessary battle of life we criticize God and the world.
In the victim role we love so much, and in self-pity, we can acquit ourselves of guilt and sin, ‘for it is not our fault; the world made us what we are, the environment makes us ill and prevents our spiritual progress.’ Behind this there is then still this hidden thought: ‘And since in reality everything comes from God’s hand, He bears part of the blame for our failure.’
In this way no trust in God can arise, and thus no love for God and ultimately no love for life. Pride always finds excuses, sophisticated arguments, so that it need not surrender to childlike-humble love. In its serpent-like workings it can be recognized only in the truth-light of Jesus’ love, which illuminates lies and falsehood and silences the conduct of satanic thoughts.
Today I receive this insistent word from the Father:
“Remember love of neighbor; place love for your fellow human beings in the foreground. Walk attentively through day and night. Give life to your dormant spiritual talents through love for Me and for your neighbors. You can awaken the Spirit of the heart from Me, which rests sleeping like an embryo in your innermost heart chamber, only through active love.
Love Me, then I can lead you to true love of neighbor, through which the Spirit of your heart becomes active. You will feel its movements through spiritual insights within you as your own possession; you will feel its vitality as a strong pull of your love toward Me; its breath will breathe into your souls with the Spirit of truth, which blows through you gently and yet powerfully and strongly, in order to drive the lie out of you and lead the death within you into life.
Let childlike humility be your innermost impulse to follow Me and serve Me. Children whom I draw to Myself must lose themselves in Me in order to gain Me. Thus I now repeat an open secret: When your hearts are cold and you feel nothing within you, neither love for Me nor for your neighbors, then gladly allow this state and come to Me within it, for then I can place My warmth and My light into your coldness, whereby the divine seeds within you are brought to life. Do not fear the short cold night of the soul, for it is a necessity for the coming eternal day, in the small as in the great—understand it rightly.”
And here the Father opens His heart for us:
“Thus I reveal Myself to My children: See, I am a good God. In My primordial divine being I am an infinite Being full of gentleness and goodness. I am humility itself, I am He who gives Himself in order to give life. I am love, pouring itself out in order to make everything love in Me and from Me and through Me. I love you more than My own life; I cannot do otherwise, for thus I am and thus I was and thus I shall be—unborn within Myself as unapproachable Godhead, born out of Myself as approachable Creator God and touchable Father.
I am nearer to you than near; there is no distance between us, and yet in My infinity I am unreachable for you. But see also: As infinity itself I am completely contained within you, for you are My children. Yes, love is boundless. Oh, how I can and will love—you will experience it, for you may and will one day, and already now, penetrate into the depth of My love.
My little children, I embrace you, I bless you from My heart, I love you. Amen, Amen, Amen.”
* * *
A brother wrote in response to the last word:
The Father’s wisdom and love are disarming again and again. There remains only one thing: the development of the Father Himself. I hope it is not presumptuous to inquire about it. The Father has already explained some things Himself in the Lorber books—right at the beginning of `Haushaltung Gottes´. But why did He `lose it´ so much at the Fall? He knew that Adam and Eve could only fail. What went on within Him then?
And what exactly does the 7 mean in Him? Are these His 7 main characteristics? God Himself is surely also in constant development through interaction with His creatures. Perhaps He might tell a kind of life story about Himself. I hope it is not vanity for a creature (child) to ask about the Father’s life story.
Dear brother, your words occupied me and I thought: Oh dear, can I answer that? Then the Father moved me to write this:
“My children, the wrath of My love is the excitation of My will. Never before and never again has there been a creation like this, in which I separated Myself from Myself in order to find Myself again in free love in divine children, in order to live with them for eternity. Beforehand I knew all the possibilities that such a revelation of My love could and would bring forth. Many paths stood open, all placed within the free will of My creatures—there was no predestination on My part.
Thus I also knew of the highly probable disobedience of Lucifer as well as of the beings arising from him, foremost Adam and Eve. Now, My will sustains all creation in existence, and My will is love. My love was shaken to its core by the sight and prospect of the consequences of the Fall that I now saw coming. Yes, My beloved, even God can be shaken in the face of the self-chosen suffering of His children. A great pain flowed through Me and thus through all creation in infinite space, and as a result the disintegration of all existence from Me threatened.
But stronger than this pain of My heart was and is and will be the result accomplished through this unique free outward placement of My thoughts. Their self-determination—that is, yours—changes the creative structure that has existed for eons, in which I alone was and am the ruler in infinity and eternity. But now there is a divine family—one God with many children who, together with their Father, fill infinity for all eternity with wonderful creations. An indescribable bliss both for you and for Me.
My son, you ask Me about My life story, so contemplate words of wisdom: My existence is everywhere and nowhere. I begin and end at the same time where infinity is found in eternal presence. My existence contains everything that ever was, is, and will be in a single point that is infinite within and outside itself. When I was, I am, and when I become, I am. All being is contained in Me as the source of eternal love, in which and from which life dwells and flows without beginning and without end as I, with beginning without beginning and without end as you.
Now you think: ‘Then He knew everything exactly beforehand.’
See, I can will to know and I can will not to know. I can close and I can open all events and consciousness in eternity and infinity. Thus in and for this unique creation I turned My eye away from My omniscience concerning certain events in order to remain free Myself in the course of all events for the progress of My children.
But you must also know: Everything that comes from Me enters into Me again. One way or another. What is perfect and goes into imperfection must inevitably enter into perfection again. For the core, the center of all imperfection, is perfection. And since imperfection is transitory, since no eternal life can endure within it, after the peeling away of death life necessarily comes forth and takes effect eternally.
There is therefore a certain necessity in the course of creation with regard to the result. But the duration of time and the suffering connected with blindness and lostness are not fixed, while I do everything to keep the distress of My children within limits and to alleviate it. This I have already done by sending Myself to this Earth to proclaim truth and sacrificing Myself for you on the cross, valid for all eternity, valid for all life in the great space of creation; for the death of this Earth would be the death of the entire creation, since this Earth is the life-giving spark of the heart of this creation.
So I have now reached a little deeper for you, for you are not to walk in darkness concerning the knowledge of your Father from eternity. Beneath this, as always, I set My Amen.”
Samuel: As for the seven Spirits of God, these are the seven principal characteristics of God within God, and they are also creatively personified outwardly as pillars of creation; both of the entire spiritual creation and within every human being as pillars of his individual spiritual rebirth.

Word of the Father for the Hour of Celebration in Zorneding
“Dear heavenly Father, our Jesus, I come to You with the request that You might give us a word, a word from Your heart. You have called us together so that here we may experience Your love together, feel Your presence—and hear Your Word. And that You touch our hearts in the depth, out of the depth into our souls, so that light may shine also for recognition. So that the light penetrates the death that still clings to us in our bondage to matter, which we cannot let go of through habit, addiction, or whatever it may be.”
“And so hear My words, My child. I was already here before you called Me, and I am always here to give My Word to My children, for this is My joy: to have fellowship with My children. Actually, to converse with you daily so that you can hear My words as luminous thoughts in your soul and also have the confidence that they are My words. For you are to be connected with Me in this time. This is so important for you, for the pull not only toward the world but the pull into fear is strong. Concern about the future: what will happen, what will happen to me personally in the coming time and in the coming years?
How can you become free of this fear? You know it, and I repeat it again and again: Seek My presence. In prayer in the morning, when you connect yourselves with Me, even if you hear bad news during the day, then the bad news will no longer touch you so deeply, no longer fill you with worry; rather, you see with My eyes and you feel with My heart, you feel security and safety at My side. And no matter what may then come, if you entrust your life to Me, then I can be with you and guide and lead you.
Already because you must carry out your activities and manage your everyday life, you cannot always live perceptibly in My presence; yet if you do it with love, then I am with you. And in between, between activities, during a break or whenever it is possible for you, give Me a thought, a few words: ‘Dear Father, I ask You, remain with me in this night of the world. Protect me and my loved ones.’
And this opening makes possible the radiation of My light of love, and your sphere—the sphere that surrounds you—is filled with light and love. And no darkness can penetrate this sphere when I am with you, and that is freedom, the freedom of the soul in the Spirit of God.
See, a time of transformation is coming. I am cleansing the Earth. On the surface it looks as though the destruction of humanity is imminent. There is so much evil on this Earth, so much distress, so much lying and falsehood—and yet everything must serve Me. For the lie will destroy itself—and what remains when lies and falsehood disappear from this world? Yes, truth remains, love remains, joy remains.
A new world will arise, and the people who inhabit it will walk at My side. They will experience a new dimension of love. And although it will not be easy in this new world, for all the conveniences of present civilization will then have disappeared, it will nevertheless be a joy, for you are the ones who have longed and still long for a new world. I will fulfill this longing, and you will experience it—and you will say: ‘Yes, now it is happening. The Father said it, and now the time has come.’
Some of My children will not experience this time, for I will call them back and lead them home, and that is good. Death is not punishment but liberation, redemption. Look at death with My eyes; look also at suffering with My eyes, for suffering serves purification, suffering leads people into prayer, suffering separates people from the world.
My children, I am not the only One here. Where I am, heaven is open, and so they are all here in this special hour. You can imagine yourselves surrounded by the inhabitants of heaven who now hear My Word here with you. You cannot imagine the joy—My apostles, the patriarchs, they are all here and look upon you as you receive My Word. And they see My blessing flowing to your hearts; that is their great joy. And every word of Mine that I speak here I place into your heart; they are seeds of love.
Yes, and as it always is—not only has heaven opened, but the beyond that is not heaven also has a view into this room. Thus many in the beyond see a light, a distant light, a near light, and some have direct insight and perceive either the words or the radiation of the light. And to them too I say that I am a God of mercy who wants to lead all His children home into their personal home, which I prepared before creation.
So do not despair, you on this side and you on the other side, in your darkness, for I am God the Redeemer, I am God the Liberator, the Savior in distress. So call My name: Jesus Christ. For I am the key to the gate into freedom.
This I say to you now, My children. So remain in love—united in Me. Amen.”
* * *
Two further words on the occasion of the gathering of brothers and sisters:
It is important that every called child of God do everything possible to establish an intimate contact with Jesus Christ in the heart. We can consider events and possibilities without binding ourselves to them, yet in everything we are to and must bring Jesus into our thinking, that is, first connect ourselves with Him through the heart, call Him in love, and then sense His presence, which answers the questions we need answered.
The Father says clearly and plainly:
“My children, pass by all intellectual wanting-to-know; go through earthly bonds and let go also of spiritual speculations, in order first to meet Me, first and foremost to recognize and find yourselves in My love. Only then will I let you recognize and find the spiritual light of wisdom and knowledge, also in earthly matters. Most often My children do it the wrong way around and seek Me and themselves in wisdom and knowledge; but you are not to do it this way, My little children. Yes, little children I call you, and as little children come to Me so that you may experience My divine Fatherly love, within which is contained everything you need.”
It is important to see the naked heart of God, and that is Jesus on the cross. To recognize God’s love in this way gives the human being divine depth of heart and humility. And we are to ask Jesus to open His heart for us so that we may recognize Him in His deep Fatherly love.
He says: “My little children, when I open My heart to you and your hearts burn in love for Me, there is also a great danger. For if you then do not remain faithful to Me in this love, the satanic soul-parts within you rise up and try by every means to bring you down, since otherwise they would have to enter into My love. This usually happens unexpectedly in a very subtle way or as a powerful explosion of a weakness of the soul. Therefore I must proceed very carefully in My gifts of love and pay attention to how strongly you are still imprisoned in material bonds; otherwise My love could harm you more than benefit you.
Therefore strive to offer your hearts to Me, for in this offering I recognize your readiness and faithfulness and truthfulness. Only then do I send My ray of love perceptibly into you, which causes your hearts to glow in love for Me, which unites you for a short time with My heart so that you may recognize Me as you have never recognized Me before.”
* * *
Christmas 2022
“My beloved, you who went into the world called Earth in order to serve Me. Today I come to you with a divine request:
Once I entered into freedom in the primordial created being in order to give birth to children of love for all eternity. I divided My soul-light, which is I Myself, into seven spirits in order to create new life from Me, in order to begin a new divine era in the present being within Me and in the course of the eternities from Me.
What does this mean? See, you are I. You are My thoughts, and in Godhood thoughts are the divine being itself, for at root there is within Me no separation from Me, and yet there is separation in the speaking of the Word `I am´.
Now I say: Give Me back to Me, while remaining in the freedom of your being. My completeness exists and has always existed, yet there is a bleeding wound within Me, and this blood is My life—and this blood is bound within the material creation and is at the same time your redemption. This I revealed to the world on the cross.
But today it is about birth, about My birth and yours. It is about our being born together. For My birth in you is your birth in Me. By giving yourselves to Me with your blood, which is your soul-life, you heal the wound within Me, for you are the balm of My heart.
Now you see where the journey is going: When the wound of God has healed in the course of the spiritual rebirths of the entire creation, there will be a final Christmas and a final Easter at the same time, a definitive birth and a definitive resurrection on My part in you and on your part in Me, in the eternal freedom of your childship with Me as heavenly Father. Thus in the end there will be one blood and one divine life.
Thus today we have penetrated more deeply into the Spirit and have again brought some light into the darkness. We, the Father and His children. Oh, what delight it is for Me to say `My children´, what bliss flows through Me as I do so. And when I can enclose a returned child in My arms and in My heart, you cannot imagine what it means. What healing currents then flow through infinity, touching all existence with My love and mercy.
Amen, My children, Amen. I love you, Amen.”
* * *
The heavenly Father always addresses us as `My children´. Therefore I said to Him: “Your children are really those who already live completely in Your Spirit, faithful and devoted to You. We are not that far yet; we are still caught up in the world and very imprisoned in many things. We continue to live in self-will and sin and are thereby subject to the law, yet You call us children of Your heart. Can You explain that to me?”
“My children, in due time I called and appointed you to follow Me. My call resounded into the darkness of the world—and into the darkness of your hearts. Some of you were already seeking Me and were more or less on the path of spirituality, though quite a few were on mistaken paths. Others were deep in the mire of the world, far from their divine identity. It could be seen from the beginning that for some, and for many, time would be needed, with struggles and defeats, with frequent falling and rising again. Thus a process was set in motion that is still continuing.
You are the children whom I went searching for in the dark forest called Earth. You are those whom I called by name. The names I gave you, which are written in your hearts together with My name, which are written in the Book of Life.
Thus I regard you as My children and call you so, even though you do not yet fulfill the `conditions´ of the childship of God. You were taken from My heart and are to return there again—of your own free will. For this I moved within you and move in your hearts, which you feel as longing; which often moves you to tears, for you recognize the value you find and possess in Me: love without end, love beyond all earthly understanding; divine love that creates and sustains all existence; love, the only truth and vitality.
Now I say: Your freedom entails the possibility of your failure. This means that some of My children will walk paths other than the straight one into My heart. They too will one day find Me, but it will be a long stretch over centuries, millennia, and more. I will always call them My children as well and stand by them on their detours. But it would be and is dearer to Me if I could enclose all My beloved in My arms. This is the reason for My endless patience with you. This is the reason why I do not let you go and practically press Myself upon you. For My heart longs exceedingly to lead all of you home into My heavenly home.
And I say further: Do not therefore believe that when I address you as `My children´ you are already redeemed by and through that. No, you still have struggles to endure and hurdles to overcome until you enter the lasting and true childship that no one can then take from you. But some of you are already very near to Me, and it will not be long before they enter My heart forever, which can also happen by means of bodily death.
For some of My children it is also necessary that they be kept in humility and littleness by means of a bodily affliction. You do not know what would happen to many a soul without distress; it would often be a sad fate. Thus an illness brings about the invisible preservation and liberation of the soul for as long as I permit it.
Therefore I say to the sick: Hold out; use the distress to enter into childlike trust and humility before Me. Truly, it happens for your good and one day you will thank Me for it. See, I touch your pains in order to soothe them with the balm of My love—in the word and with My presence, when you open your hearts to Me. And in due time I will take the burden from you, which can and will also happen through My servants whom I equip and have equipped with the power of healing and who will appear in the coming years and heal the sick through the word.
And to all of you I say: Continue to make an effort; let the world be the world and hold to Me, for only I can give you peace of heart and freedom from worry. In Me alone are your salvation and the healing of your soul to be found. Amen, My children, Amen.”
* * *
Dear brothers and sisters, what does being a Christian truly mean in our earthly existence? And what does it actually look like?
Here the Father shows me a clear and unambiguous picture. Most Christians put themselves first. There is no great difference from selfish worldly people, for first of all we too want to `have our own sheep safely under cover´. Yes, above all we make sure that we lack nothing and first take care of our own well-being and our wallet. When we give, whether money, goods, or love, we always make very sure it cannot possibly be too much and therefore do not hear what our heart tells us.
We ourselves usually stand at the center of our existence, in first place—and there self-seeking reigns both in the material and in the spiritual realm. For here too we often strive to satisfy ourselves with beautiful words and then go back with them into our egoism—hidden self-love and spiritual pride are not seldom the result.
On this the Father speaks clear words:
“My children, whoever wants to serve Me, whoever wants to enter My Spirit, must place Me and, from Me, the welfare of his neighbor above himself. My child must be able, in the Spirit of divine love, to put himself aside and act selflessly in and from this love. Along this path My children must become ever more like Me, must become completely absorbed in Me in selfless thinking and action, always having the welfare of the neighbor in mind. And in the measure of this progress My Spirit—I Myself—increasingly takes form in the serving soul. This is what it means when I say I come to meet you halfway. Then life becomes ever easier; the joy of serving in My Spirit fills the soul and gives it divine peace and security in Me.
My beloved, whoever does not put on My divine love-Spirit form cannot enter the highest heaven, which is My own house and heart. You are still merely scratching at the hem of true Christianity. Go within yourselves; consider your frequent self-seeking and lay it at My feet in humility. Ask Me earnestly to cleanse you and lead you on the true path of selfless love with Me and in Me.
Only when a child seriously sets out to follow Me in faithfulness can I guide it in light, and only then does this word come into force:
“Do not worry about your life, what you shall eat and what you shall drink, nor about your body, what you shall wear! Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? Look at the birds of heaven: They neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not worth much more than they?
And which of you by worrying can add a single cubit to the length of his life? And why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow! They neither toil nor spin; yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not clothed like one of them.
Therefore you are not to worry and say: What shall we eat? or: What shall we drink? or: What shall we wear? For the Gentiles seek after all these things, but your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. Rather seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you! Therefore do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will take care of its own. Each day has enough trouble of its own.”
Yes, My children, therefore do not wonder if you are plagued by worries and needs, by illness and fear—and I do not help you, because I cannot help you since you do not let Me into your life. All these are signs of your superficiality, your self-love, your self-will, and your concern for your own welfare. Give Me your heart, then I give you Mine. Give Me your life, then you live in Me and then I watch over your life as over My own. Then it is one united life of Father and child. Thus it is to be.”
Dear brothers and sisters, what at first glance looks difficult and arduous dissolves completely in the Spirit of love. It is true that in surrender to the heart of Jesus Christ the old human being is crucified, and the more one clings to the world, the more impossible, painful, and lengthy this process appears; yet once one has let go and bound oneself to Jesus’ heart in word and deed, one already stands in the resurrection from death and at the same time in the inbirth into the Spirit of God.
This is a very serious and true message from our heavenly Father. May it awaken us and bring us to reflect on what discipleship means and why we are actually on this Earth.
Heartfelt greetings, Samuel
* * *
Dear brothers and sisters, the last message is a wake-up call from our heavenly Father at which some spirits are divided. As can be seen, there are not only beautiful words; Jesus also shows us where we are lacking and that we are to make a greater effort in `Nearer, my God, to Thee´. Just as good parents do not only give their child heartfelt gifts of love, but occasionally with words of admonition and encouragement show their children their wrong attitudes and deficiencies—yet in it all it is always love that challenges and gives.
We are all on the path of truth, and truth speaks to us. Truth is love and light; love that calls us, its light that illuminates and enlightens us on this divine path, always with the goal of guiding its children home through the stormy waters of this night of the world.
Besides many other flocks everywhere in the world, the Father has also gathered and assembled His little sheep in this small flock. Our names are written in the Book of Life. This means that our time of returning home to the Father’s house has come. What this means for us we cannot yet measure. It also means that the Father wants to and will fulfill our striving with a wonderful coming toward us. We therefore need not despair with regard to what is necessary and what we still lack in order to enter the New Jerusalem.
The Father has placed within us everything necessary to reach the divine goal; He has given each one his own. We need only grasp it in trust that He stands by us in the battle of the world and does not leave us. And He certainly will not—our heart tells us this, does it not?
Thus a divine wake-up call too is glad tidings when we receive it in humility as children of the one true God Jesus Christ, our Father for eternity.

Hour of Celebration in Zorneding
Right at the beginning Jesus spoke:
“My children, I have brought you together in this fellowship, in which I am the center, in order to unite you in My heart. These are not words merely spoken that dissolve again into air, but they are words of permanence, of truth; they are divine words that always carry realization within them, reality and vitality.
This uniting of your hearts in Me has a special meaning; not that I wish to say you are an elite circle, you are something special—no, there are many circles, heart-circles of My children on this Earth whom I visit—and yet it always depends on how far My children have progressed in their calling, how far they have recognized their mission and are permitted to recognize it in My light, in My presence.
And sometimes it is necessary to lead a child through a dark valley; necessity often requires it, and yet a divine goal inevitably comes out of it, for I am the companion. I take My child by the hand precisely where it is darkest and do not turn My eyes away. Since your birth I have not taken an eye off you, off every son, off every daughter. You were never alone, you were never without Me; My gaze always rested upon you, in every phase of your life, even in those in which you did not recognize Me, where you felt no love for Me and none for people either. For it is something special that you went to this Earth, into this darkness, yes, into this hell. And so it is only natural and self-evident that the Father does not leave His children alone—even when they do not see or feel Him. This is My care for you.
And now it is time for you to enter My presence—at the point at which you now stand, in this moment of your eternal existence. And I have opened My heart for you, My love touches your souls and I speak to you the words: Now come to Me, unite yourselves with Me again as it once was—and so it will happen; this is true and certain.
And yet a few steps are still required: to lay aside sin, to do penance, that is, to repent of the deeds, despite and although they were done in blindness, to lay them before Me and say: ‘Dear Father, look, I did this and that and I am sorry; it cannot be undone.’ My children, I have the power to neutralize these things and thereby cleanse the soul, for only a pure soul can enter My heart permanently.
And as is always the case when I visit My children, heaven is of course open, wide; there is not a single pair of eyes in heaven that is not now looking into this room to share in this fellowship. In heaven there is now absolute stillness; you can hear… feel the stillness of heaven (long heart-touching stillness, almost tangible and yet untouchable, penetrating the soul, absolute).
My children, joy is so important, joy in life, and it is up to you where you draw your joy from. If you draw it from the world, you take away the space for joy in life in Me, for the world is death. Thus it is necessary increasingly to shift joy toward Me, to direct it toward Me, and to rejoice in My love. For love is life, and then you receive joy in life, joy in life itself, joy in Me—joy in serving together with Me. For only when you serve and work together with Me, in the unity of My Spirit, will your soul be filled with this unspeakable contentment and bliss. And so, these are My words for the first. Great joy is also in My heart. Amen.”
Later, because of the brothers’ and sisters’ concern about suffering and distress, Jesus speaks again:
“I take no pleasure in the suffering of My children, and believe it: My heart still bleeds, it bleeds when My children have to suffer, for I am love. And yet necessity so often requires it in order to bring about corrections, and there are different ways to lead My children into humility: there is pain and suffering and distress for humbling, and there is love, which tenderly penetrates the soul with humility and brings it to completion. These two possibilities exist. And most often there is a preparation in distress and a completion in love.
Everything therefore depends on humility. Humility is the basis of everything—and so My children can decide for themselves. In love for Me the soul blossoms in the light of humility; in turning away from Me, in fear, you bring upon yourselves the hardship that also humbles you. And this suffering in turn contains perfection within itself, in order to lead you back to Me. So love Me, My children, for then every hardship will remain far from you, for I repeat: I take no pleasure in the suffering of My children. And it is always necessity that arises from My divine order and wisdom—and yet at heart it is love. It is always love that moves Me to act with divine mercy. Love called you forth; love will bring you to completion. Everything is love; I am love.
So do not be afraid and do not worry about the future. Make the effort to come into My presence each day; ask Me to draw you to Myself in love, and then everything will be well. Then I will keep every hardship far from you and you can be free in love, for only free children can spread My love.
And again I say: Joy is so important; it is a blessing for the soul as water is for plants. It is so important that you live in joy, in the joy of life. Therefore turn away from the things of the world that bring you death. Brief, transitory joy always contains suffering that you draw to yourselves. But joy in Me, imperishable joy, keeps you safe and draws the love that protects you and leads you through this final time. Amen.”

“Dear Father, I thank You that You once led me into the deepest despair, to the place where I could no longer find any worldly support. Dear Father, I thank You for the unspeakable pains of soul that made me stagger about for months and years in the land of lostness. Dear Father, I thank You for all the tears I was permitted to weep and for the insults I was permitted to utter against You without Your returning them. Dear Father, I thank You for all the humiliations then and now, in which I may recognize myself in You—one way or another. Dear Father, I hardly dare think where I would be now if You had not touched me in my wretched, selfish humanity.
Dear Father, in the pain of self-knowledge You have led me to a place where You equip Your children with infinite trust in You. Your love, which once painfully cast me down from the throne of my foolishness and selfishness, now fills me with security and surrender to the life You have newly given me. Now I belong to You; now I may enter into Your will, in which dwell infinite freedom and divine power of love.
Dear Father, even though I still carry the dirt of this world on my feet and many an earthly weight prevents our hearts from permanently merging with one another, I nevertheless know that You will never leave me in sin, for Your faithfulness is true and imperishable.
Dear Father, I find no words to describe my happiness, for before You and in You there are no mortal words; only love can touch Your heart. All I can lay at Your feet is my weak faithfulness, offering You my heart in humility anew each day.
Dear Father, so I entrust my life to You completely; now I belong to You in life and in death. Now I am Yours and You are mine; whatever may come, I place my life in Your hand and in Your heart forever.”
“My child, your words give Me such joy. Even though you will come into situations that shake you and distract you from Me, I will be there to take you into My heart again. Even if the old person catches up with you and you give in to him, I will touch you so that you find Me again beyond all doubt. For when a child has set out in truthfulness, I no longer give it up, even if it is not yet able to walk steadily at My side.
So I place a truthful prayer on the hearts of all My children, as your brother has done. I expect from you a disclosure of your innermost disposition; I expect unsparing honesty before Me and I expect you to offer Me your hearts. I do not expect it for My sake, but for yours, for only in this way does the space open in your souls that I have prepared for Myself in order to make you infinitely happy.
Bring Me your sins and infirmities; speak My name: Jesus Christ—look at Me as you do so and read in My eyes and in My heart the words: My child, I love you. Give Me your life, then I will give you Mine. And I have already given it to you, My children; you need only take hold of it within yourselves.
Amen, I have come. Amen.”

Dear brothers and sisters, the Father wants to lead us into spiritual rebirth, as He did with His apostles. But what was it like then? He went about gathering His little sheep around Himself. And those who followed Him He led into His Kingdom, gave them the bread of life and poured out for them the wine of truth, to prepare them to receive the Holy Spirit, for spiritual rebirth.
The apostles, and many disciples as well, were therefore not perfect and still carried with them many earthly weights and dross. They strove to order their lives entirely according to the divine teaching and their hearts were wide open to their Jesus; but only in receiving the Holy Spirit after Jesus’ ascension did they truly become seeing, divine power permanently unfolded in their souls, and the Spirit of God led them into all truth, living and imperishable.
Exactly this is happening in this time as well. It is the same process, except that Jesus does not gather us around Himself as God in the flesh; rather, in spiritual form He goes from heart-door to heart-door and knocks, calling us to leave everything behind and follow Him. He comes to those who in humility acknowledge themselves as sinners before Him; He comes to the simple ones, to those who claim no privilege or rank on account of their divine belonging; He comes to those who can open their hearts and do so for love alone.
This is what is happening now. To proclaim this in His name and communicate it emphatically to His children belongs to my commission. My task, then, is to proclaim the presence of Jesus and bring it close to His children and to those of good will. In going ahead in the ray of grace of God’s love, I am a signpost and a preparer of the way into the divine heart for many of His children. But each person must walk and love for himself.
Concerning this the Father says: “My children, it is necessary for you to put off your old person in order to come to Me. You must leave your house and home in order to walk with Me, in order to follow Me. Understand this rightly: what is meant is your old soul-house, which you must leave; it is your old life in the cage of your earthly pleasures and misguided ways of thinking. For no one pours new wine into old, leaky wineskins, and a broken vessel cannot hold the water of life.
Whoever clings convulsively to earthly addictions and succumbs to the enticements of the serpent, I cannot fill with My Spirit; I cannot use that person as part of My body, for My body must be whole through your faithfulness and through the surrender of your life to Me, who alone am holy.
So remain in your striving and continue to let yourselves be prepared. Every day I give you an opportunity to recognize yourselves, to recognize Me, to grow in humility and in love for Me. Therefore be attentive at all times; remain in prayer—that is love for Me and, from it, for your fellow human beings. For soon the day will come when I send out and pour out My Spirit of truth over this globe, for some as judgment, for others as eternal salvation.
Amen, Father for you, Judge of the world. Amen.”

Dear brothers and sisters, the Father tells me that many of His children do not truly believe in their soul-spiritual fulfillment, that is, their rebirth, and have thus erected a barrier to the divine Spirit. Yet it is so important to accept Jesus’ words as an immovable reality, so that they become reality within us and we can take on divine form, in order to call into earthly existence all the talents and gifts that the Father has placed in our hearts.
Jesus says: “My children, as I spoke to people of good will 2,000 years ago, so I speak now: In the fulfillment of My commandments lies the inbirth into the Spirit of God, lies union with Me. My teaching for your spiritual rebirth and for those who seek Me with their hearts, expressed in a few words:
Believe in the one true God in Jesus Christ. Love Me with all the powers of your soul and, from that love, your fellow human beings. Do not do to them what you do not want done to you, and do to them what you want done to you. Be generous to the poor and support them according to your means and strength, materially and spiritually. Live in the world, but live in the awareness that you remain here only a short time and that your true home is the home of the spirit. Receive the comforts of this world as a gift from My hand, but pass them on when you encounter need and misery. Live in the awareness that your life has been taken from My heart, and that without Me you are lost, but with Me you will gain everything. Turn your thoughts to Me again and again, daily, hourly, every minute; then I will take manifest form in you and you in Me.
My children, it is not so difficult to be born in Me. But the enemy wants to persuade you otherwise through feelings of unworthiness, inability, and uncertainty. Therefore believe that it truly happens in keeping My commandments. Tear down the barriers of unbelief that separate you from Me; then nothing will be able to hold Me or you back any longer, and you will glide quietly and gently into your divine being and Mine.
Take these words as reality, as an unshakable fact, and firmly believe that it is so. Believe, then you will see in Me, then you will hear in Me, then you will act in Me and bear witness to Me before the world.
I am already very near to you who are filled with longing for your heavenly Father, very near. But now it is up to you to let Me in. So open your hearts wide, so that heaven may unfold within you and thereby outward from you, so that there may be light in the darkness, so that there may be love where there is hatred and violence.
Amen, these are the words Jesus Christ speaks to His children. Amen.”

Little children, you can grasp it, My divinely sweet Father-love.
It is love that with every one of its impulses wants only the very best.
You, My true little children, feel blissful gain
even in severe trials of life!
If this poor world knew how gloriously radiant
—not only above—your loving heart is flooded with love,
it too would praise Me with gratitude,
would gladly give up everything for My Father-love.
I, Jesus Jehovah, still call: Listen to Me!
Child of the world, do you hear My fatherly wooing?
Come, turn your heart pleadingly toward Me.
Come, My Father-love stands ready; you must not perish. For My love you must plead fervently, wrestle,
then victory will be yours.
All the angels will sing when a soul turns back,
when a heart thirsts for My love
and truly desires Me.
