Divine Revelation
My sons and daughters, your serious time calls for serious and clear words. Those who wish to understand why the situation on your earth is coming to a dramatic head will welcome them, so that they can draw the necessary consequences for themselves. Others would rather not look so closely; they would prefer that I exclusively “wrap them in love,” as one of your songs describes it.
I do this without interruption and without ever condemning anyone or anything. But in order truly to understand My love, you also need the knowledge that everything I permit serves the well-being of My children—namely the well-being of their souls, which comes first for Me and takes precedence over the well-being or intactness of the outward, transient human covering. This does not mean that the human being does not also receive help upon help, provided he accepts it and it can become effective upon him within My laws.
Again and again I have pointed to the necessity of going beyond an unreflecting “having to believe” and trying to see connections, recognize the background, and develop independent thinking. I do so this time as well, because simply having read or heard something is not enough as a foundation for your inner freedom, your deeply rooted conviction, and thus for your sovereignty—which has belonged to you as sons and daughters of My love from eternity. Knowledge alone is never a guarantee that you can withstand the inner and outer storms of life.
The logic of the heart1), which I teach you, is a wonderful instrument for finding truth step by step and entering ever more deeply into My wisdom—provided you make use of this “tool.”
Therefore I recommend to you—and this applies especially to My revealed word today—not to stop at merely reading or hearing My explanations, but to engage with them in thought. The more often you do this with the intention of learning something and changing your thinking, the more it becomes your own deeply held view, which then can no longer be shaken by trials and doubts sown in order to unsettle you.
Take as one simple example the transition from material into subtle life, which you call “death.” If you no longer merely believe but now know that death, as the world knows and fears it and as you yourselves believed for a long time, does not exist, then the thought will no longer frighten you when you have to leave the earth in order to continue living in brighter realms. If it nevertheless still frightens you—more or less—that can tell you something about yourselves.
Even when fear is no longer predominant, there may, for example, still be a desire not to leave behind something that remains important to you here—more important than what awaits you on “the other side of life.” But if your belief has already become knowledge, and you endeavor to live this knowledge—what can still keep you from coming joyfully into the arms of the One whom you worshiped throughout your life: into My arms?
From this small example alone you recognize the necessity of not merely keeping knowledge in your head but also putting it into practice and living it. Provided you want to learn to understand and become free.

In an earlier revelation2) I said that worse than all oppression, all subjugation of those of another faith, and all coercive measures was the falsification of My teaching of love, resulting in the obscuring of truth that has existed ever since and—often against better knowledge—is still passed off as My word.
This has led to My no longer being recognized as the just and loving Father, to people no longer believing in Me, to even those who believe in Me not understanding Me and My love; and it has had the devastating consequence that one’s own actions and omissions are no longer felt and seen from the standpoint that one acted wrongly and took guilt upon one’s soul. Yet this guilt must either be regretted and made good, or it takes effect as compensating justice.
A look at your world reinforces many in the view that there can be no God—or worse: that there may perhaps be one, but one who has no concern for love and justice. For some hunger and thirst while others live in luxury; one person is struck by a blow of fate by chance while another is not called to account. And it is no different when people look at their own lives or individual stages and situations in them. Everything seems somehow to exist alongside everything else without connection, as though in an “empty space”: It simply is so. It simply happens. Period!
And when and where a connection is nevertheless sensed or seen, the necessary knowledge is lacking, and often the willingness as well, to get to the bottom of things. An illuminating realization, measured against the standard of love for God and one’s neighbor, would—if honestly worked through—have to have consequences. But lack of consistency, practiced for as long as humanity can remember, is one of the greatest evils. It may apparently “defuse” a situation for a certain time, but it already carries within itself the effect in the form of negative—that is, corrective—consequences.
My law cannot be disabled or bypassed! Even though people repeatedly try to do so unconsciously, unknowingly, or intentionally.
With the removal of the teaching of reincarnation, the decisive alteration was introduced that has brought infinite misery and suffering upon human beings. For with it, the law of cause and effect taught by Me through Jesus of Nazareth also lost its fundamental importance. It was downgraded to a “subordinate clause” that is indeed still present in your Scriptures but no longer has central importance for the development of the human soul, and accordingly is taught wrongly or disregarded.
Because the forces of darkness can act on matter only indirectly, for such maneuvers they made and still make use of human beings whom they could and can influence and, after they were unable to prevent My redemption, in this way carried out an intervention at a “central switching point” that, from their perspective, was successful. They rejoiced because they had won a battle; but by now they sense that they will never be able to achieve the final victory.
And yet they too will be led back into the eternal home. For I am all-forgiving love.
I have mentioned these events—not for the first time—because they are indispensable for understanding what follows. This concerns not only the fact of repeated incarnations, but the fact that nothing that happens may be considered in isolation. Otherwise it is impossible to grasp the meaning of all that takes place in your personal life, in your politics, in the relations among peoples, and on your globe.
Everything in My creation flows, everything is constantly in motion, one thing acts upon another, and everything builds upon everything else in the sense of an unceasing evolution. This is not new to you. If you accept it—not merely with your head but with a convinced heart—then it should not be difficult for you to recognize how one event follows another and how one thing is connected with another.
But how can one arrive at satisfying and, above all, correct answers to pressing questions if, in assessing or judging a situation or event, one looks only at a small section or excerpt while the whole extends over a much longer period—perhaps many, many thousands of years and more? If one does not take into account what came before and what comes after because one does not know that such things even exist?
Most of you, even those who possess spiritual knowledge, repeatedly make the error of considering an event in isolation; of either forming your opinion or expressing your lack of understanding about incidents and occurrences that are no more than snapshots. All too quickly, on this basis, solutions are sought, assessments are made, and judgments pronounced.
In this way you will not succeed in arriving at a coherent assessment. Thinking and arguing in this way is equivalent to trying to divide a twenty-four-hour day into advantageous or disadvantageous, important or insignificant, constructive or discouraging, merely because you use one single hour of the day as your standard.
The false teaching of supposed eternal damnation has its origin here, by attributing to Me—who am love and mercy and have never taught anything else—the act of sending a child, after one life—which as a rule is only one among several or even many—into an everlasting fire because he did not believe in Me or did not conduct himself according to church commandments!
My sons and daughters, use your intellect!
The overwhelming majority of people always see only one link in a long chain made up of countless links. They see only the link they are looking at at that moment, or the one they are willing to look at. Thus lack of understanding and rejection arise, and beyond that a lack of willingness to reflect on possible causes and initiate steps pointing in a new direction. The consequences are stagnation, superficiality, inertia, and much more, and in this way the spirit of the age lays claim to part of human thinking.
In most cases, a goal worth working toward is then lacking. The human being “stands still.” The forces of darkness need no more than this; it is enough for them if the human being does not move in the sense of spiritual evolution. The removal of the two small cogwheels “reincarnation” and “cause and effect” alone has brought this about.

Heaven is love. This means that every spiritual being is concerned that the other be well, that the other “grow and thrive,” for in heaven too there is unceasing growth. Those among the angels—and you too are angels, for inwardly you are divine beings—who have already gained in experience and wisdom serve all others selflessly. They live within the law, they practice the commandment to love God and their neighbor, and in this way receive the energy of My love without interruption.
The law of cause and effect is known in heaven, but it is not applied there because no causes are set there, whereby “causes” means everything directed against the commandment of love. Only the so-called Fall or fall of the angels brought the law of karma into existence.
Outside the heavens this law certainly applies. But it does not serve as punishment; rather, through corresponding effects it is meant to lead to realization the one who lives by his own laws. That realization will then—at some point, as his free will decides—help him regret his wrong conduct and begin his turning back.
If you now know that serving, which presupposes humility and therefore naturally excludes selfishness, makes you happy and content inwardly and outwardly and provides you with everything you need; and that contrary conduct brings with it a debt that must be settled, then many answers follow by themselves:
From this perspective, consider all that peoples have done to other peoples. Instead of helping the weaker with their inner and outer development, they were attacked, subjugated, and exploited. This still happens in the present, though no longer as openly as centuries ago, when colonization and enslavement brought enormous wealth to the physically stronger—and at the same time created enormous distress among those affected. Now the time has come when the law of sowing and reaping is gradually showing its fruits.
Wars were and are waged from the lowest motives, always with the intention of strengthening one’s own position and weakening that of the other. This is the opposite of serving.
When human rights are disregarded in your leading economic nations—not to mention that people do not act according to My commandment of love—this too is the opposite of serving.
And smaller states that scarcely have what is necessary to feed their people also wage wars for ideological reasons, more than ever before. This too is the opposite of serving.
Vehemently placing one’s own interests—whether personal or political—in the foreground, manipulating, and using every available means to impose one’s own will: this too is the opposite of serving.
The persecution of others who did not share one’s own religious conviction has been commonplace for as long as humanity can remember. It has not ceased, but continues to be practiced in the most varied ways. This too is the opposite of serving.
Your planet truly serves the human being. It alone makes it possible for the human being to have a home so that a soul can incarnate and human being and soul can develop further. Today water, air, and earth have been polluted by human beings to a degree once thought impossible. This too is the opposite of serving.
Everything is energy, and no negative energy dissolves by itself. At no time. It must be transformed through making amends, which presupposes recognition, remorse, and a request for forgiveness. Balance must be restored, for every system that has “fallen out of its harmony” wants and will return to harmony.
If this process is not initiated through the steps mentioned, from self-knowledge through making amends, then what you call working off the burden comes into play. These are the effects of the causes previously set, which bring about a balance. They may lie a long, long way back, because time plays no role. But this balancing too is not a punishment; rather, it serves the perception and acceptance of earlier guilt.
With the logic of your heart you can reduce these considerations to a simple formula and follow them through to the end:
What I created is without flaw and carries within itself the desire for evolution and perfection. Everything that does not—does not yet—correspond to this was created by human hands. Yet here too, because of My law, the desire for evolution and perfection prevails. This goal will be realized—if not through the free decision of the one who caused it and his turning back in thought and action, then through the necessity established by law to restore the required balance.
You apply to this process the inaccurate word “fate,” as though someone somewhere were sending something. No one sends anything, least of all I. Fate is homemade and returns like a boomerang to the one who set the cause into the world.
Try, My sons and daughters, to be realistic and assess honestly how great the chances are that those responsible for all these conditions—whether individuals, communities, or peoples—will recognize their wrong conduct, ask the victims for forgiveness, turn around on the spot, initiate steps toward improvement or turning back, and in the future act in the spirit of My commandment of love …
If you can give yourselves a sincere answer without fear and in trust in Me, then you know why at the beginning of My revelation I spoke of a serious time and serious, clear words. Looking at the larger whole, and thus away from focusing on a small period of time that can never show you the connections, helps you recognize the necessity of moving inwardly closer to Me.
Make your own the perspective that everything you see consists only of links in a long chain; and that everything has its past, which plays into the present, while the present in turn determines the future through today’s conduct. This applies to every moment, every day, every year, every century and millennium. And it applies to every individual, every group, and every people.
From this perspective, while it is understandable and humanly required to give a victim compassion, sympathy, and help, this must be done without at the same time condemning the perpetrator, however much his deed may cry out for retaliation and revenge. No one—apart from exceptions that I will not explain in greater detail here—becomes a victim “just like that.” It would not be the first time you wished that a perpetrator had to suffer the same thing as his victim. If this is then set in motion many years or even incarnations later through the law of cause and effect, and the former perpetrator becomes the present victim, it can easily happen that, in ignorance of the connections, the same “game” begins all over again in your thoughts and words.
It can be ended only—that is, the cycle of mutual retaliation can be interrupted only—when one of the two is ready to refrain from striking back3). This applies not only to individuals; it applies to entire peoples as well. Love your enemies!
*
I see the questions in many hearts: “What is coming toward us? How will things continue?” Considerations of what karmic backgrounds may play a role are rarely or never made, because such a question would bring the theological answer that this “belongs to the mystery of God, which one can never penetrate.” That is only partly true, for I will never tell you details because I betray no one. But I give you insight into the principles of My creation so that, if you willingly follow My explanations, you can arrive at the rock-solid conviction:
“Whatever happens does not arise from the arbitrariness of my divine Father. His laws work without error. And because everything has its own past, even though most of it is unknown to me, everything has its deep meaning.”
If you cannot yet muster this trust, then pray and ask for it. And take My words more and more deeply into yourselves, because—as mentioned at the beginning—they will serve your well-being and make you inwardly strong and calm only when they fall from the head into the heart.
Then it will no longer matter greatly to you when this or that will happen. Then you will have followed the advice I have already given you several times4) and will be keeping up with the working through of the tasks that come to you anew each day.
For this work, your inner work, I give you all the strength you need. For I want to gather you into My arms again as soon as possible—because I love you infinitely.
Amen

3) The Soul Keeps Debit and Credit
You insist that you’re right,
that the other is bad,
so you think, and you give him no peace.
“I showed him what’s what,
he finally bowed,”
you recount with a great deal of fuss.
Yes, if you keep biting,
and because you don’t know
the soul keeps debit and credit,
it seems bold to you,
and every excuse serves
as fuel for your quarrel and pleasure in it.
You still do not see
that it might also be
you are only paying old debts.
You sow new seed,
so the wheel turns—
one word only, and you could stop it.
from “Verlasse dich auf deines Herzens leisen Klang” by H. D.
