Divine Revelation
My beloved, you ask Me again and again for My interpretation of the chief commandment; and specifically of the part that says, “… as yourself.”
Only the one who loves Me, his God and Father, Me, the Christ, above all can love himself in the right way. With a love that makes you gentle, that lets you listen in surrender. Listen for My impulses, My love, My touch upon your soul, upon your heart. And because I touch you within with all My love, with My light, My peace, My joy, your heart opens like a flower illuminated by the sun. And you cannot help but recognize, with your inner seeing and even with your outer seeing, how lovable you are, how like Me you are.
How could a child who loves Me and sees Me reflected within himself not love this image, this being? And when you recognize yourselves in Me, when you act, speak, and think, when you love as I, Jesus Christ, loved you and lived this before you, the circle closes and embraces the whole chief commandment: “Love God, your Father, above all, and your neighbor as yourself.”
Then an inkling comes over you of the holiness of this, My first request to you, My beloved. And truly, I tell you, when you take this commandment deeply into yourselves and live according to it because you can no longer do otherwise than live in this way, then you walk in My footprints—as I, as Jesus, walked over this earth—toward heaven.
Then what I told you even then will come to pass, and you will perform even greater wonders than I did.
So believe in your greatness, gratefully accept the gifts I placed within you—indeed, which are your rightful inheritance. And then, My beloved, distribute them without reserve; and I fill your hands, your arms, your hearts with ever new streams of blessings from heaven. What happens in the right way in My name preserves you from an excess of joy that can easily tip over in My human children—you know what I mean.
So walk your path, and serve and love with My greatness within you, and you will grow beyond yourselves into your true destiny, always accompanied by My love and My blessing. Amen.
Divine Revelation
My beloved sons and daughters, today I show you once again the great arc that began with the Fall, passes through the emergence of realms outside heaven including matter—and thus your earth—and finally, after the return home of all who have fallen, ends again in the eternal home, where the circle has closed. Forever, for there will never be a second Fall.
I have spoken to you about this subject more than once*), and I will do so again and again; on the one hand because it is of decisive importance for understanding why you are here, and on the other because every renewal of it deepens your recognition of the great whole, especially when each time I illuminate new aspects.
Accepting, and above all grasping, this gigantic event is a great help to those who long for Me, who love Me, who have set out on the way back to My heart. For precisely they are the ones whom attempts are made to manipulate and seduce in an especially skillful way. Countless people are indeed kept in a kind of spiritual deep sleep, but they pose no danger to darkness. On the contrary: They are often compliant tools directed from the darkness without knowing of their role as puppets in the grasp of the opposing forces.
The attention of the forces that fight against Me and you is directed toward those who awaken spiritually and have taken and are taking their first steps into inner freedom. Therefore every imaginable means is used to try to prevent an evolution of the spirit. The means are many. Details would frighten you and make you look on in disbelief; therefore I do not go into detail and leave it at calling you again and again to watchfulness, to the use of the intellect I have given you together with the logic of your heart.
But I show you the background. I call you, address you inwardly, remind you again and again of the power that lies within you, of My love from which you are, and wait for you in free decision—not out of fear or merely from a sense of duty, but out of love for Me—to set out on your path toward home and walk it courageously and full of joy. Each with the possibilities given to him and available to him at present.
At the point on the arc where My human children now find themselves, the greatest part of the distance has been covered. Everything that had fallen is on the way home, even if not all want to admit it. The possibility of return was set in motion through what happened on Golgotha two thousand years ago. It was not My “death” that brought redemption. It merely represented, in accordance with the laws of matter, the necessity through which My energy of love could be released—what you call resurrection—in order to strengthen all human beings and souls and thereby make their return home possible.
This truly unique event, the deed born of My infinite love, would have deserved to be portrayed in a different form than through the dead figure hanging on the cross, the sight of which is indeed intended—according to your teaching—to remind believers of My sacrifice, but which distracts the gaze from the greatness of what truly happened.
A victory had been won; the Fall had been stopped; the heavens stood, and have stood ever since, open again to every willing soul. The goal of reunion with everything that had left heaven was at least sensed by some. The possibility had been given to cast off everything heavy with My help, to transform everything burdensome with My help, to set out—with Me, at My hand—on the path that finally ends in the light. A reason to rejoice inwardly and show joy outwardly. A situation had arisen that filled the forces of darkness with fear and terror, for they saw that their power would diminish and their possibilities of influence would become less and less.
And so they began to devise and step by step implement a plan intended to help them consolidate their position. Darkness distorted My teaching, at first a little, then more and more, until finally at some points—at certain decisive points—it represented the opposite of what I taught and lived before you.
It benefited from the fact that people did not know of its existence, its possibilities, and its methods; and when they did, they clothed these in abstract images and thereby shifted everything into the realm of the unreal—if they believed at all in the reality of negative forces, which can indeed appear in personified form and do not merely move through the earth and its surroundings in the form of energies. In the phase you call your Middle Ages, ignorance, joined with idolatry and false beliefs, with abuse of power and the use of violence, reached its height.
*
And so—even today in your “enlightened” age, of which many are so proud—to the spiritual world your earth and its inhabitants present a picture of confusion and stupefaction, inability and ignorance, false paths and speechlessness. Yet they are sons and daughters of the heavens, born of My love, who often go through life only as shadows of themselves! Because they do not know that the great majority of human beings are guided like puppets on strings held by hands that represent only their own interests and have only their own goals in view.
It is the dark forces—largely unknown to you and in many cases still denied—that here, on your earth, stand in confrontation with the light. Here on your earth and in its astral surroundings, in what is invisible to you, the battle that began with the Fall is taking place. Here is the “playing field” on which light and darkness meet. Here is the stage on which the struggle for supremacy is fought. And My human children are the participants both sides seek to influence: on the one side employed as puppets by the opposing forces, on the other side, when they awaken, guided and led by heaven.
A situation has arisen that can be described as follows:
One part of humanity has completely lost faith in any kind of higher power, not least because of inadequate and unsatisfactory answers to urgent questions, such as the justice of God and His apparent failure to intervene in view of increasingly chaotic conditions on your planet. Because over the course of many centuries darkness succeeded, by influencing human characters agreeable to it, in removing the fact of reincarnation from the teachings of the Christian religion and in completely misinterpreting or denying the law of cause and effect, church leaders and their pastors lack the answers. But missing answers lead through incomprehension to rejection of an idea of God and finally to denial of God.
Another part—in all religions—bows to the rules and doctrines of faith of its spiritual leaders without making use of its own intellect and heart. They are bound into traditions and handed-down teachings centuries and millennia old that present them with an image of God having little or nothing in common with My reality, with My boundless love. Without reflection they accept what is put before them—and they see no possibility of verifying whether what they are to believe is genuine and correct, indeed no permission to verify it. Nor do they see any need to do so at all. They are the sheep that follow earthly shepherds who, fundamentally, remain moving in place because they do not know the path and therefore do not know of the necessity of doing something themselves for re-entry into heaven, whose gate I have reopened for them—for all. They know little or nothing of the only path that leads to My heart: the royal road, the path of love lived out. Keeping commandments, observing prohibitions, applying various techniques, membership in a community, hymns and praises of every kind, rites, traditions, meditations with not infrequently obscure backgrounds and aims, and very much more are no substitute for what in countless revelations I have brought close to My own as “inner work.” They were introduced and installed to distract from the necessity of one’s own action. With temporary success.
A further part is in the process of throwing old ideas overboard and setting out in search of truths that have until now been withheld from them, but whose existence they sense. In part the desire to learn more springs from a longing in the soul, but in part also from rejection of everything people tried to impose on them. The latter often lack the ability to distinguish divine truth from pseudo-truth. They indeed desire greater certainty, but their love for Me must and will still grow. Everything that in some way gives itself an esoteric or even mystical coloring awakens their interest. In this way—figuratively speaking—they run the danger of falling into the hands of wolves that have put on sheep’s clothing, wolves that offer spoiled bread to the hungry, who because of their lack of enlightenment, but often also because of their unwillingness toward everything bearing a divine-spiritual character, cannot recognize it as such. The answer to who the wolves are is not difficult to find: They are those who for an infinitely long time have fought against the light, who pursue goals other than Mine, who anxiously strive to defend their sphere of power, and who urgently need energies from human beings because for their contrary actions they receive no divine energies. Yet every being depends on energy.
To describe the condition I have set before you with the words “confusion, stupefaction, inability, ignorance, false paths, and speechlessness” is more than appropriate to the present situation.
Yet even if it appears to be “deadlocked,” everything nevertheless proceeds within My divine laws. From this it also follows that the infinitely great power of My love has equally infinite possibilities for leading everything to the end I have intended for all My children, including those who at present are still against Me: the return of all who have fallen into the infinity and beauty of their eternal home.
*
But I do not want and will not leave it at this comfort that one day everything will be good again. For I see the fears and needs of those who desire to come closer to Me, who want to set out with Me on the way home, but at the same time ask themselves how, in this maze of distortions, half-truths, and untruths, they can find the light that guides them with sleepwalker-like certainty. Can this thicket still be seen through? “Where and how,” I hear My children say, “do I find the path that is Your path, Father? And who guides me?”
I have often answered the last question for you: It is love, My love within you, which in Jesus Christ is your Brother and Friend. He is the One who as pilot guides you through your life, even through the heaviest storms, and who—if it is also your will put into action—brings you safely into harbor. I remind you of My word: Whoever serves the law is served by the law!
But the question of how the path can be found can also be answered without difficulty. Ultimately it is the question whether truth can still be discovered at all in the existing confusion, and what standards must be applied to the teachings of the different religions so as not to go astray.
My law is love, and therefore it contains everything that also belongs to love. This includes justice, freedom, equality, mercy, humility, kindness of heart, infinite forgiveness, protection, help upon help, boundless understanding, the inability to punish or threaten—to name only a few. Yet knowledge of these qualities alone is enough to examine any teaching more closely, to draw the right conclusions in personal responsibility and, if necessary, also make decisions.
Take justice, for example, if you wish. I am just, because without justice there can be no love! The logic of your heart will then tell you that everything that happens to you—indeed, to everyone and everything in all creation—must be subject to the principle of justice, because nothing takes place outside My law. Whoever cannot explain this because he does not know, rejects, or misinterprets the law of cause and effect, whoever portrays Me as a God of great, inexplicable mysteries or arbitrariness, does not represent My teaching. Thus, from this small example alone, you would have recognized where truth is and where it is not.
Or take freedom. I have given all creatures free will. I do not bind! Where My love is taught and lived—love, and nothing else—without adding one’s own commands and prohibitions and one’s own ideas, there freedom, joy, and trust prevail. There is no pressure, no compulsion, no “must,” no going behind someone’s back, no ifs and buts. Apply this measure, and you learn to distinguish between true and false.
Take the measure of equality, humility, and the fact that I neither threaten nor punish, and then you know whether what is presented as My law corresponds to the truth or not.
Extremely skillfully packaged are the teachings of the so-called masters, who by now have willing helpers in all parts of the world. They have refined their strategy and no longer proceed with fire and sword. They appeal to the human desire for harmony and peace; even the word “love” appears again and again; they claim to be able to satisfy curiosity about everything spiritual. They work with words that remain noncommittal and are for the most part empty of meaning.
Do you remain attentive when you hear and read that you need do nothing because everything, just as it is, is good?**) Or when you are told that you not only have divine powers within you, but that you are a part of God—by which they do not mean Me as Creator—indeed, that you are your own god? And that you are accountable to nothing and no one? Do you let yourself be dazzled by well-formed words behind which emptiness and superficiality are hidden? By sentences full of what is correct, within which—almost imperceptibly—something untrue is concealed? Certainly for many the prospect of being able to ascend into higher spheres without having to walk the path of self-knowledge, remorse, decision, and change—the path of love at My hand—is seductive, because they need only practice certain techniques and forms of meditation. Yet it is a path that leads into the arms of the opposing forces.
If you are still unsure, then before directing your energies there, seek a personal Father-child relationship, seek a boundless love waiting for you with outstretched arms, seek the origin of love from which all creatures came forth and by which they are continually given life because this fountain nourishes everything. Seek a love that became human in order to bring everything back into unity.
Apply the standard of what I have told you, let your longing vibrate toward Me, enter in the stillness into a connection with Me familiar to your soul—into an intimate prayer that a child directs to his divine Father—and say in your own words something like: “Father, I recognize You as the eternal Source of my life, from which everything I need flows to me. I trust You”—and you will recognize the truth because you carry it within you.
*
Many people who sense or even recognize the truth nevertheless find it difficult to leave behind old tracks of thinking, perhaps worn in over many incarnations, and to give up their previous idea of God or in the future to approach it with greater distance than before. This is also difficult for them because they are not accustomed to thinking with personal responsibility—even though I gave precisely this ability, which is part of their free will, to My children as a most beautiful gift.
Recognize what binds you, or what draws you toward other doctrines and currents. What is complicated about what I teach you? What is bad about loving and being loved? What is so unattractive about it that you are tempted to prefer other colorful promises?
Truly, I tell you: There is no safer path, one that at the same time represents a wonderful adventure, than the path at My hand. You will come to know yourselves; you will free yourselves from the ballast, the small and large weaknesses you still carry around. You will experience Me as a Friend such as there can be no second. In doing so you will grow step by step into the freedom that already lies within you. Your consciousness will expand, and it will become ever more difficult—for whomever—to impose upon you teachings that contain many human ideas, or to lure you onto apparently easy paths of development that end in a dead end, at the end of which selfless and unconditional love does not await you.
My word was serious, but it was spoken out of My love. I enlighten, I admonish, I call, but in all My words to you your free will, your decision, is sacred to Me. This applies to everyone, including those who try in the most varied ways to influence My children. They are not My enemies, and they are not yours. They are My children, and they are your brothers and sisters. Pray for them.
If beyond this you want to help them because My love has awakened within you, then do so through your example in daily life; and believe Me: this is perceived. Just as from the invisible realm every weak point is recognized and exploited—no one could be seduced if his interests or parts of his character did not permit it—your light is also recognized. It can serve toward self-knowledge for those who want to seduce you; in every case, however, your endeavor toward love helps you yourselves to be enveloped more securely in My protection.
My blessing is upon all My creation, which came forth from My love, is sustained by My power, and grows unceasingly through My love. My blessing therefore is also upon you and you and you, My child. I touch you in your innermost being and tell you as your Father: “I have loved you since eternity and for all time.” And when you open your heart to Me and bring your love toward Me in inner feelings, thoughts, or words: “I love You too, my Father,” then you will recognize in your heart the truth that says: love—and nothing else.
Amen.
