6975 Attacks by 'false representatives'....

November 23, 1957: Book 74

Anyone who confesses Me in Jesus Christ is and remains Mine for eternity.... You need not fear that I will hand you over to My adversary, who will indeed repeatedly harass you but has no power over you as long as your will is turned towards Me. My adversary certainly tries to separate you from Me, and his activity is often not easy to recognize under the cloak of piety.... For even those who sincerely strive towards Me are attacked by those who seem to strive for the same, for My adversary uses them if he cannot succeed in any other way to drive a wedge between Me and you.... For a person who seriously strives towards Me wants everything but not to act against My will.... And therefore My will is also held up to him from the opposing side in order to shake his belief that he is acting correctly. Yet you can believe that I Myself accept the one who has accepted Me into his heart through his conscious willful devotion to Me and the acknowledgement of My act of salvation in Jesus Christ. I would truly not be a God of love if I wanted to reward a person's love for Me in such a way that I abandon him to ruin.... that I thus leave him to My adversary. And he need not fear to go wrong once he has faithfully given himself to Me and requested My guidance.... And thus I can only tell you again and again that the adversary's activity will indeed not diminish and that he will again and again try to cast doubts into your hearts and that he will also use such people for this who also feel themselves to be 'God's representatives on earth'.... but that they will only do his will if they are not yet intimately united with Me themselves, because then they would immediately feel his influence and resist it. But I protectively hold My hands over you and don't let such temptations endanger you, because I know your will and you are already Mine through your devotion to Me. No matter how your further earthly life will turn out.... you can be certain of My guidance and fatherly care, and you can devote yourselves to the work for Me and My kingdom without worry, for this, too, will be watched over and guided by Me, because My adversary's activity has to be counteracted by Me and you are instructed by Me to carry out this work. You should not worry about this, for precisely the attempts to dissuade you from this work for Me shall give you ever stronger impetus, because you can be certain that these attacks originate from My adversary.... precisely because you serve Me.... If you were to serve him you would truly be supported in every way, you would receive public honours, you would be brought into everyone's field of vision, you would also pay homage to the world and be richly endowed with the goods of this world.... but you would never ever raise your voice for Jesus Christ and His act of salvation, you would rather speak out against Him, for then My adversary's spirit would be active in you, and this would always express itself in an anti-christian way. You, who want to serve Me, need truly not fear to succumb to his power, for the very fact that you stand up for Jesus Christ is also your secure protection against his attacks, for He Whom you confess before the world is also on your side, and the adversary will have to surrender to him, he will have to release you who consciously confess Jesus Christ and thus want to serve Me, Who will be recognized and known by you in Jesus.... But every person has to answer for his will. And therefore it is good to fully subject this will to Me, then the human being will truly not be able to want and think differently than it corresponds to My will, for then My will will also be in him. But it is impossible for Me to want contradictory things from you.... thus I will not put it into one person's heart to be active for Me and into another person's heart to oppose this activity and dissuade the former from doing so.... Thus My adversary must be able to express himself in the latter, who is interested in stopping the work for Me and in My will.... or at least to awaken doubts in you as to whether your work is God-willed. Devotion to Me protects you from wrong thinking and wrong will, and therefore I only ever admonish you to join Me ever more intimately, and then you can also walk safely and unconcernedly on earth under My guidance, for I Myself will then guide you to the aim....

Amen
