The Royal Road Is the Path of Love Lived Out

Divine Revelation

Quietly and unnoticed by your outer senses, I, Christ, have entered among you. In My company are many of your brothers and sisters, brothers and sisters from the light and from the realms of souls, who long to hear the word of love—just as you do.

I have brought you the light of the heavens, and likewise all the powers of the heavens: peace, healing, and love, which are the life of all infinity.

I ask this of you: Set aside everything you have still brought here with you. Place it trustingly into My loving hands, which are extended toward you, and in this trust open also—as far as you can—the gates of your hearts so that they may be flooded by the gifts I offer you.

I bless you, you here and you there. I bless all who have gathered around the whole earth in My name, for where else could I be but among them? My word and My presence accompany you through your hour of celebration.

Amen.

Divine Revelation

My beloved sons and daughters in the material world on this side and the spiritual world beyond, I raise My revealed word to let you partake of My wisdom, to teach you, and to give you help for the path back to the eternal home.

This is urgently necessary because I see how uninformed My children go through their lives. They resemble students who are presented only and repeatedly with the elementary multiplication table, year after year, life after life. And so most stand questioning before the problems of their daily lives.

Therefore I will give you another instrument of self-knowledge to take with you, one that will help you explore yourselves more deeply and, if you wish, draw the right conclusions from your insights and make the necessary decisions. In doing so I adapt My words to the consciousness of My children, and those will benefit from them who not only hear My words and find them interesting, but put them into practice.

My creation came forth from My love. It also rests upon the pillars of order, will, wisdom, and other aspects and qualities of My nature, but the sustaining element is love. And so, according to the law that like attracts like, there can be only one path that leads back to My heart, indeed into My heart: the royal road, the path of love lived out. There is no other path.

You can indeed draw near to My heart in different ways, but in order finally to immerse yourselves in true, all-embracing, eternal life, to become one again with the Source from which everything is, the love within you must develop and on your further path to Me become ever more selfless and unconditional until it has again become the love I placed in every creature.

A decisive aspect of love is surrender, about which I have spoken with you more than once. I give you a statement worth reflecting upon wisely. It says:

The honesty and seriousness of your surrender are equal to the growth of your soul and the expansion of your consciousness.

It accords with the “logic of the heart” to apply the converse to this statement, which shows you how close you already are to My heart and whether here or there increased endeavor is still needed to come nearer to Me. Whatever the result of your analysis: It can always be a reason for joy—either because of what you have already developed in your soul, which then already appears correspondingly strong and bright, or because of what you have now recognized and want to change with My help.

*

The whole of creation is built upon the principle of evolution, of constant growth, of continual development. This means that along the path you travel until you once again enter your eternal home through the Rose Gate, a change will take place—in many small and large steps—so that at the end of your path you will be different from what you were at the beginning. That is evolution. I have played, and continue to play, the decisive part in this unceasing change. Your part consists of your decision, your will, and your endeavor.

I accompany every human child and every soul on this path, without there being even a single moment when I am not with My child. No one is ever alone, even though it seems so to the great majority. I continually give help in many different ways: through impulses, inner promptings, suggestions, insights, events, or also through people who come into your lives. Opposed to this is your ego, which—reinforced by the activities of the opposing forces—erects many an obstacle that temporarily makes it difficult for Me to reach you. In this way self-knowledge is often prevented.

For all their differences, the individual stretches of the path nevertheless have much in common: Before doing, before implementation, comes decision; before decision comes recognition of the necessity, perhaps also remorse; before that comes self-knowledge as the first step, as one of your sayings also expresses. Without one’s own recognition, there is scarcely any chance of initiating a lasting change of direction in your life.

Therefore today I want to give you another help that can—if you wish—show you what still lies within you, in your subconscious and even deeper in your soul. For there the triggers are hidden that govern your thinking, speaking, and acting and often cause you to react without recognizing the connections operating behind them.

My statement, which has a far deeper meaning than appears at first glance, is:

You are drawn to where your needs are satisfied.

This is brought about by the law of attraction. I want to explain this help of Mine to you and direct your gaze a little into the “depths,” for only then does the deeper meaning of My statement open to you.

What is meant are not only physical or psychological needs, but also—indeed above all—the needs of your soul: what the more or less burdened soul still strives for, what it still wants in the assumption that then, apparently, things will be better or good for it. And your human self all too gladly follows its striving, especially since it does not know the connections, the search for fulfillment coming from within. Thus you will again and again find your way to people and communities, come into situations, and be led to tasks that resonate with what exists inwardly as a need, even if you are not aware of it.

The needs can be of many kinds. They can certainly be positive, but in every case they say something about you if you take the time and have the courage to apply this truth to your behavior. Perhaps in doing so you recognize what has already changed within you and have every reason for joy.

The importance of My statement lies above all in the fact that it enables you to interpret your behavior correctly. It can show you where the true motives of your actions lie and perhaps deprive you of a small illusion, of a slightly embellished image you still have of yourself.

But it may also be the liberating work of your soul, which takes this or that upon itself in order to bear injustice from an earlier time or balance it through restitution. There are many possibilities, and if you are ready to explore yourselves a little, I will help you.

To help you understand better what I mean, I will give you an example: You are always at the forefront when it comes to helping. If you were to answer for yourself why this is so, your answer might be: “Because I love my neighbor and therefore want to help him.” That may be so, My child, and if it is, then rejoice, for you are satisfying a need of your awakened soul, and I rejoice with you. But there may also be other reasons. It may—for example—be the desire for recognition, and this need is then satisfied through what you call the helper syndrome.

Or: You join a religious community of your own free will. Why? Your motives can very well be positive if you want to find the truth and come closer to Me and thus satisfy your need to find Me. But could there also be other reasons? External pressures, hidden fears, attraction to outward forms, and more? Do you notice how important it can be to look into what moves you? Perhaps your need comes from a weakness still present within you, but perhaps also from parts of your soul that you have already developed out of love for Me and with My help. Honest examination will give you the answer as to why you chose this or that group in particular. It says something—without any judgment!—about you, and in this way you come to know yourself a little better.

Or: You are drawn to a person of the other sex. If it is true love that brings you together, My blessing and My joy rest upon it. But there may also be other reasons of which you are not at all aware, and which make you dependent; reasons that at least also play a part in your loving relationship. These can include loneliness, inertia, fears about material security, but also dominant behavior and much more. Strong attachments of every kind—not only in your marriages and partnerships—also repeatedly cause what has not yet been resolved or let go to be activated again and again, by satisfying the underlying—in this case negative—needs instead of working on them and thereby weakening and finally dissolving them.

Look within yourself, and if you then discover that your motives—measured against the commandment of love and the freedom of My law—do not always correspond to what I taught and teach you, then make a decision and come with it to Me, into your inner being. For I am not only there to help you toward insight; My endeavor is to free you from what still makes it difficult for you to live love more than you have until now. I am the solution in all your problems, for there is no greater power than the One I am: Jesus Christ, the love within the Father!

*

And therefore I address you, My brother, and you, My sister, as representatives of the many among My human children who have not yet found access to Me to the degree their souls long for, because they were given a false image of God that does not make it easy for them to recognize Me as love and live with Me. I am entirely different from what you think! Do not allow a false idea to determine your life and behavior.

When I meet you as your Brother in Jesus Christ, there is no more loving friend, no more faithful brother than Me. There is no more sensitive teacher, and there is no better pilot who could guide your ship of life through the adversities of this time. If you have reservations, then I ask you: Try Me! Let us walk together for a while. What risk do you take? Love extends its hand to you! Take it, hold it firmly, and enter into the adventure with Me.

I need no more than your endeavor, than your childlike surrender. There need be no beautiful words; pour out your heart to Me, speak to Me directly and familiarly; let your inner feelings flow, and imagine: I am the One before you. Light floods around you. Before you stands your trust, your protection, your sense of safety; before you stands your life. Reach out and take hold, and thereby release the unsuspected powers that lie within you.

Your science has long recognized that faith is capable of releasing energies with which the human being can accomplish things he previously thought impossible. But if faith alone can do this, how much more can love—My love! It is already within you and waits to be kindled to a greater degree than before. It is the unsurpassed fuel capable of carrying you upward, out of heaviness and hardship and into the light.

On the path back to the Father’s house I want to be your guide. Entrust yourself to Me; trust Me. Certainly your worries and problems will not be dissolved from one minute to the next, but I set the course. And the peace that enters your heart, the sense of safety you feel, and the calm that spreads within you are My peace, My safety, and My calm. It is My love within you that grows and grows through your endeavor and My help.

I radiate all My love toward you and call to you once more, deep into your heart: Put Me to the test! And let us walk together the path I call the royal road, because it is the only true path that leads back into eternity, perfection, and glory.

I need a yes—even if it is a small one. That is enough for Me. Before you lies the bright land of freedom, which I want to enter with you if this too is your desire. Look forward to it.

I raise My hands and bless as Father My sons and daughters, and as Christ My brothers and sisters, by letting My power flow to them, fostering their insight, strengthening their trust, and causing the love within them to become a flame.

I am the One who makes you strong. I am the One who loves you—for all eternity. I am who I am!

Amen.

Divine Revelation

Once more I stand before you. I hold My hand over your head and let power and love from Me flow into you. I see how your hearts fly toward Me, how your love for Me flares up again, and how inwardly you speak your yes to Me once more.

Oh, remain with it, speak it consciously again and again; and when—as at times it must be—your path seems stony and thorny and leads through lowlands that appear poor in light, then, I tell and promise you, I, your Christ, your Lord and God, am especially near to you.

Especially then do not cease to remember My presence and help; and then I will place in your consciousness with luminous clarity: “Your Lord and God, your Savior, is with you, My child!”

And truly: I am!

Even though much of what still lies ahead on your path requires trust, courage, patience, surrender, and love, I tell you: Strive to do everything in love, to envelop everything in love, and always to make yourselves conscious of My presence; and I tell you: piece by piece you will grow. It will become brighter and clearer within you, and the morning of your new, conscious life with Me and My love will dawn within you.

So go; I hold you, and you hold Me.

Amen.
