Jesus speaks: “At every time, in every place, I am always present where hearts have opened
themselves to My love. Where there is readiness to serve Me, to follow Me in the deed of love.
And so it is indeed something wonderful to be permitted now in this community to experience
this unity, this unity of love in My Spirit.
“From My Spirit you went to this Earth into forgetfulness, into the darkness of this earthly world,
in order to walk here a wholly individual and special path. The path I have prepared for you is
the path to which I lead you back again and again—through outward circumstances, through
certain situations into which you come and you think you are in distress; then worry comes over
you and you flee back to Me, and that is then the correction you urgently need.
“You are placed into this time in order to serve Me as forerunners, as path-breakers, as doors
through which I can enter this world—always according to your surrender and your readiness to
do so. And is it not so that your longing, that the love of your heart shows you that this is precisely
what I have placed within you and what you too want to do? To belong wholly to Me, to become
one with My love and to be permitted to live in this love, in this security of love, unspeakable—
and yet it is spoken out in the deed when you surrender yourselves, when you are ready also to
make sacrifices. Small sacrifices in everyday life—you all know them—these small things of daily
life that challenge you.
“And then there are the great sacrifices: to forgive your enemies, to let go of the past, for much
from the past binds your soul and does not permit free love for Me. But the soul must be free; the
soul must be purified—like a soiled cloth that is washed again and again until it is white and
clean, no stain any longer upon the cloth. So too your souls are to become pure and white. For
only in this way can you enter My heavens, where nothing imperfect can enter and nothing
imperfect can live, in this absolute perfection of My love.
“Therefore I train you, therefore I guide you, therefore I tell you what is needed, therefore I also
urge you to make an effort, to be consistent in following Me, not to listen to what people say to
you but to what I say to you and to act accordingly. For many will still come to you and say: `One
cannot do that; you are crazy to entrust one’s life entirely to God. One must look after oneself, one
must fight and struggle for one’s earthly well-being.´
“But to this I say: My children, your struggle is My struggle. I go still further and say: when you
come into temptation and believe that you yourselves must now fight and struggle, then I say: My
child, do not fight—love Me—for I have fought for you. And when you love Me, then My victory is
effective for you. Love Me, then you will become free. In love everything is contained; in love you
also recognize the value of My act of redemption. To accept it requires humility, to admit: `My
Father, without You it does not work; I do not have the strength, I need You.´
“And when some think they can fight and struggle with their human strength and need Me only
now and then for their own advantage, then I allow this person to fall so often in his weakness
until at last he understands that only I have the power and strength to accomplish victories.
“And yet I have placed My victory within you; in love for Me you take hold of it. Therefore love
Me, My children, then everything is good; then the soul becomes free; then victory over sin takes
place, which is the prerequisite for being born into My Spirit—which I have intended for you.
“But many of My children think: `My Father, I am still so far from that; I still have so much dirt on
me, so much earthly burden. I cannot even imagine this birth into the Spirit, this rebirth in You—
how is that supposed to happen with me?´
“And I say: precisely this consciousness is the basic prerequisite for being born into the Spirit, for
it is the humble self-knowledge of the soul’s sins which is so necessary. You can give Me only
what you see within yourselves. If you are not conscious of it, you cannot give it to Me. Therefore
it is also so that I open your souls little by little so that you recognize yourselves even in the
hidden corners of your soul, where darkness is still present. This will in part be unpleasant and
frighten you when these weaknesses of soul come over you, and they can also bring about bodily
ailments; an illness may perhaps appear. Yet these distresses lead you into humility and bring
you to My heart.
“And so, if you look at it rightly, everything is good at My side. Therefore enter deep trust; believe
My words, for My words are truth and life—not only for you but for all who listen to these words,
including those beyond.” (Samuel: The gate to the beyond is opened for many deceased souls, and
about fifty souls from the local cemetery have joined us.)
“And to you as well,” (to those beyond) “who are not yet walking the paths I have prepared for
you, I say: I am a God of mercy. As God I have set Myself the task of making all creatures My
children and leading them into My Father-heart. I do not look at what is past; rather, I receive you
as you come before Me—even in the falsehood in which you have lived and live. Finally and
ultimately you too are to reach your spiritual homeland, so that you may live in light and love, in
the bliss of My love.
“I am the Word and the Word is life and I have placed the Word within you. And this word too
which I speak here is a part of that Word, is a part of Me. And every time I distribute My word to
My children, I place a part of Myself into My child, a new aspect which My child can contemplate,
a new aspect of God, a new recognition of My love, which I give you in this word, in this room, at
this time, for eternity. Amen.”
