5246 Urgent reminder to vineyard work....

October 29, 1951: Book 58

The work for the spiritual kingdom must be done with increased strength, for it is approaching the end. Again and again I speak these words to you to spur you on to diligent activity, and yet you all don't know how close the end is. For the events are precipitating themselves and thus only a short period of time will be necessary where everything will take place which I have announced to you. You humans don't have much time left, then the earth will open up and devour everything that lives there. And the people who have not heeded My word, the people who are without faith, who indulge in worldly pleasures and belong to My adversary, they will become victims of the forces of nature along with all living creatures.... Consider, My servants on earth, the tragedy of these souls which are now banished again for an infinitely long time into new creations on earth, then your eagerness to work will increase, then you will also know how necessary your help is for the salvation of souls which are not yet completely corrupted and therefore still capable of changing their attitude. You still have to do a lot of work and you must not tire, for they are all My living creations which I still want to win over for Myself, which I still want to reshape into My children with due regard for free will, otherwise it would truly be easy for Me to change them according to My will.

Your work therefore becomes more urgent every day, for only through you is it possible to influence your fellow human beings. And with My word you have a means at your disposal with which you can also work successfully.... You, My servants on earth, have a mission to fulfil which is of utmost importance. You can bear witness to Me and My working on you, and thus you can be the reason for them to reflect on what they have heard and to try to establish a connection with Me. Everything has to be done which can change people's thinking, and since I cannot obviously influence people you have to do this work for Me and be active as My faithful servants in My vineyard. And you should not delay and postpone your work, for every day is significant, for with every day it gets closer to the end. Believe it or not, you will be surprised how soon the last signs will make themselves felt. Don't let time be a lost time, reckon with the imminent end and then use every opportunity where you comply with My will, for people's souls are in great distress and only loving help can save them from ruin, from spiritual death and the new banishment which will then become necessary. And I truly want to grant you the power of persuasion, I want to bless your words and also those to whom you convey them, so that your work will be successful, so that you will convey My gospel to the souls and thereby win them over for Me and My kingdom....

Amen
