Last test of will....

The spiritual being which resisted God had to live through endless times of bondage, and only a short phase is given to it to test its will, yet this short phase is decisive for its further state, for its fate in eternity. The walk through the material world is certainly agonizing for the spiritual being because it cannot freely work according to its will. In the last stage, however, its will is freely given and therefore life as a human being no longer seems unbearable to it, indeed, it usually feels so comfortable in this stage that it makes no effort to exchange it for a free life as a spirit, free of all earthly matter and thus of all fetters which previously bound the free spiritual. And that is why the last test of will is often not passed, and the endless long course of ascent development before was in vain when earth life still results in the spiritual being regressing, that it falls back into the hands of its enemy, who is to blame for its lack of freedom. And yet this last test has to be imposed on the spiritual being because it should strive towards God in complete free will if it wants to become free and regain its original strength. At the beginning of its embodiment as man it is in a degree of maturity which guarantees its complete liberation, therefore every man can wrest himself from the power of the opponent during his short earth life. He is offered all possibilities to do so, and he is also assured of God's support if he only asks for it. But in order to test his will the adversary must also have the power to make him submissive to his desire, otherwise it cannot be spoken of a decision of will. And that is why earthly life is full of struggles and temptations, of all kinds of resistance, which the spiritual must and can overcome with God's help. Therefore the human being must consciously make use of God's help, he must be supplied with the knowledge of a power Which can do everything It wants and wants everything that is good, because It is love in Itself. The human being must believe in this power and make contact with It and, full of desire to belong to this power, appeal to It for strength to reach the aim on earth. Then he will release himself from bondage, because God's love seizes everything that consciously and in free will turns towards it again, as it once turned away from it in free will. The spiritual being has to pass this last test of will, and earthly life is given to it for this purpose, so that it will finally become free from God's opposing power and attain its original state again.... that it is intimately united with God as a being of light, from Whom it once originated....

Amen

ZADNJI PREIZKUS VOLJE....

Bitje, ki je nasprotovalo Bogu, je moralo preživeti neskončna obdobja suženjstva in dana mu je samo kratka faza, da preizkusi svojo voljo, a ta kratka faza je odločilna za njegovo nadaljnje stanje, za njegovo usodo v večnosti. Hoja po materialnem svetu je za duhovno bitje (človeka) vsekakor mučna, saj po svoji volji ne more svobodno delovati. Na zadnji stopnji (razvoja) pa je njegova volja svobodna, zato se mu življenje kot človeku ne zdi več neznosno, pravzaprav se v tej fazi običajno počuti zelo udobno, pa si ne prizadeva, da bi ga zamenjal za svobodno življenje duha, osvobojenega vse zemeljske materije in s tem vseh okovov, ki so prej svobodnega duha držali v ujetništvu.

In prav zato zadnje preizkušnje volje pogosto ni prestal in neskončno dolga pot razvoja vzpona je bila pred tem zaman, ko ima zemeljsko življenje še vedno za posledico, da duhovno bitje nazaduje, da pade nazaj v roke svojega sovražnika (Satana), ki je kriv za njegovo nesvobodo. In vendar je potrebno duhovnemu človeku naložiti to zadnjo preizkušnjo, ker si mora v popolni svobodni volji prizadevati za Boga, če želi postati svoboden in si povrniti prvotno moč.

Na začetku svojega utelešenja je kot človek na stopnji zrelosti, ki mu zagotavlja popolno osvoboditev, zato se lahko vsak človek v svojem kratkem življenju na Zemlji osvobodi moči nasprotnika. Za to so mu na voljo vse možnosti, zagotovljena pa mu je tudi Božja podpora, če le prosi zanjo. Da pa bi nasprotnik lahko preizkusil njegovo voljo, mora imeti tudi moč, da ga podredi svoji želji, saj sicer ne moremo govoriti o odločitvi volje. In zato je zemeljsko življenje polno bojev in skušnjav, vseh vrst odpora, ki ga duhovno lahko in mora premagati z Božjo pomočjo. Zato mora človek zavestno izkoristiti Božjo pomoč, treba mu je dati spoznati Moč, ki lahko stori vse, kar hoče, in hoče vse, kar je dobro, ker je sama po sebi ljubezen.

Človek mora verjeti v to moč in vzpostaviti stik z njo, ter biti polno želje, da bi ji pripadal, prositi za moč, da bi na Zemlji dosegel cilj. Potem se bo osvobodil suženjstva, kajti Božja ljubezen zajame vse, kar se zavestno in v svobodni volji znova obrne k njej, kakor se je nekoč v svobodni volji od nje odvrnilo. Duhovno mora prestati to zadnjo preizkušnjo volje, zato mu je dano zemeljsko življenje, da se končno osvobodi nasprotne Božje moči in spet doseže svoje prvotno stanje.... da je kot bitje svetlobe tesno združeno z Bogom, od katerega je nekoč izšlo....

Amen.
