0563 Earthly and otherworldly happiness in love.... sphere of light.... looking inwards.... war...

August 31, 1938: Book 12

Detach yourselves with all your might from earthly pleasures and remain in My love.... this will replace a thousandfold what you give up for My sake. And thus heavenly peace will unfold in you.... you will find all happiness on earth in My love and be indissolubly united with Me. Let this be your principle that you give up everything for My sake, then you will receive infinitely more than you have given away, for if I fulfil you, you will truly desire nothing else....

And you are in great need of refreshment for the salvation of your soul.... you do not know the joys of heaven and therefore do not appreciate the value of My promises, yet you will revel in unspeakable bliss if you follow My words.... What does the world offer you in contrast.... Only illusory goods and illusory happiness.... But true happiness is only with Me alone, Who created you.... You only have to know this much, that you create that blissful state for yourselves for an unlimited period of time.... without end.... that you will always feel the same longing for it and that this longing will always be satisfied by My love.... and that you do not know how to measure and evaluate such on earth, but will be desired by you in eternity. This fulfilment of your longing is incomparable, and for this you will have to endure earthly life with all its pain and suffering.... My love is constantly endeavouring to make this blissful state of happiness accessible to you, for God's glory has existed for an infinitely long time and will continue to exist for all eternity. The more intimately an earthly being can feel for its creator.... the greater the love of the earthly child for the heavenly father, the more varied the spiritual experience on earth will be. If the human being already dwells on earth in spheres of light, if he cherishes love for the divine saviour in his heart and if love has thus been kindled to the highest fervour, then the lord is in the fullest form of light in the midst of his heart.... a look inwards lets His image shine, and from an overflowing heart a heartfelt prayer rises to the father, Who so richly provides for His child. Behold, My child.... compare that time of My life on earth with the endeavours of the present time.... Everything that opposed My teaching at that time was from the realm of darkness. Those people who accepted My word were indeed extremely willing, but it was only a small proportion compared to those who rejected My word. In later years, however, the number of My so-called followers increased, but these followers were not My true disciples.... They had moulded themselves into something according to My teaching, and in the following centuries war after war arose over this teaching. The cause was always a certain struggle for My word, and that in itself could not be the right teaching instituted by Me, for the sake of which bloodshed arose among mankind. But the advancing age became weary of faith.... and soon no longer recognized the purely divine in this teaching either, but it moved further and further away from the right faith instead of accepting My unadulterated word, which repeatedly reached people according to My will. However, in order to guide humanity onto the right path of realization a great shattering of the entire religions or the teachings represented on earth, which were supposed to be My work, had to occur once again.... and this upheaval should now lead to humanity seriously questioning what the eternal deity demands of it. Thus My teaching shall arise again amongst people and this will not be confirmed by any war or the like, nor will any religion fight the other but only that will be decisive as to whether people will want to acknowledge Jesus Christ as saviour of the world and accept His teaching as the only truth or whether they intend to banish everything true into the realm of legend and renounce all faith in the saviour. But this will never again be a matter of dispute that could lead to war. The living example of these words of Mine is in any case the long prepared battle against all faith, which is certainly raging everywhere but will only be decided in the hearts of people.... Everyone will outwardly fulfil the will proclaimed by earthly power.... but I fight for your hearts.... I do not want outward faith.... I want the deepest inner experience and your true devotion to Me.... This battle must be fought in the heart and will never relate to worldly events but only ever to the acceptance of My pure word or its rejection. Now the world has become far too entangled in earthly interests and will only ever stage a war over such, but the question about the eternal deity will never tempt people to evoke a war. People today are so far removed from spiritual experience that they would not make it the centre of a world conflagration, whereas material interests are extremely prevalent and these alone can be the cause of hostilities.

Thus those predictions (John 16:8) essentially refer to the wars arising from spiritual causes and a final elimination will not be possible until the whole of humanity has entered a more spiritual state, which then also guarantees a completely different spiritual attitude. However, all phenomena of the present time point to a de-spiritualization of the generations and the state of peace, which encompasses the whole earth, will still be a long way off. This, My child, shall restore your inner peace and in full faith you shall accept the words.... as pure truth and given in love.... for light shall become yours if you ask for it....

Amen
