Vsak človek, ki se bo upiral poslušati Božjo besedo, bo ostal v temi duha, kajti ko sem Jaz to pridigal ljudem na Zemlji, so prejeli luč z nebes. Zdaj pa je čas postal veliko hujši.... Skoraj ni človeka na Zemlji, ki ne bi bil seznanjen s pravim naukom, pa vendar si večina pred tem naukom zapre svoja srca in ušesa in zna govoriti le o nebrzdanem uživanju življenja. In zato Moj nauk ostaja od njih tako oddaljen in nerazumljiv, kajti že najmanjši namig na omejevanje njihovega uživanja v življenju jih dela nejevoljne in bi radi vse zavrnili in zanikali. Vendar ima tudi Božja moč svoja sredstva, saj vedno zasleduje isti cilj in zato noče prepustiti nobenega zemeljskega otroka usodi, ki si jo je izbral. Seveda ljudje to imenujejo prisilni ukrepi, ki so v popolnem nasprotju z njihovimi željami, zato svobodne volje ne priznavajo brezpogojno.... Vsekakor pa morajo razmisliti, v kolikšni meri so sami odgovorni za to, kar sedaj dojemajo kot prisilo, in kako zlahka se ji lahko z le malo dobre volje izognejo. Vedno bi lahko ostali v istem odnosu kot otrok do svojega očeta, ki jim prav tako želi le zagotoviti vse udobje in čigar ostrine ne bi nikoli izkusili, dokler ostanejo blizu očetu in jih nanj veže globoka ljubezen.
Na enak način vlada nebeški Oče in oddaljuje od svojih otrok, ki ga ljubijo in se jim gnusijo vsakršne krivice, vse zlo, zatiranje in mučenje. K takšnim ukrepom se zateče le, ko je ta odnos utrpel udarec in zemeljski otrok zdaj ravna v nasprotju z Očetovimi navodili, čeprav jih ljubi in jim želi podariti vse, kar razveseljuje otrokovo srce. Vsak otrok ima pravico do blagoslovov vere in ljubezni.... če jih ne sprejmejo, če celo očitno ravnajo v nasprotju z njimi in jih ne upoštevajo, mora kot protiukrep na zemeljske ljudi priti vse tisto, kar se potem občuti kot prisila.... Takrat človek verjame, da je v stvarstvo postavljen popolnoma nesvoboden.... in za vse je kriv sam in njegovo otrdelo srce.
In tako so prav ti ljudje najbolj izpostavljeni skušnjavi, da se odrečejo odgovornosti, vedno z dobrim izgovorom, da so prisiljeni izvesti vse, kar pa so le posledice njihovih prejšnjih napačnih dejanj. Vsakemu človeku je dana možnost, da svobodno izbere drugačno pot od tiste, po kateri je šel ali hodi.... in kdo ga pri tem ovira.... toda ravno zato, ker je menil, da je to dobro, se je odločil za to pot, in tako bo tudi učinek njegovega ravnanja vedno tak, kot je bila človekova želja in volja.... Ko je spoznal, da je uspeh drugačen, kot si je želel, bi rad krivdo za svoj domnevni neuspeh pripisal drugi sili, da mu ne bilo treba sebe priznati kot avtorja tega neuspeha.
Tisti, ki se trudi v sebi iskati počelo vseh dogodkov, ki ga zadevajo, bo zelo kmalu prišel do drugačnega mišljenja o »usodi«. Čeprav so človeku poti, ki jih mora prehoditi (pot mesa na Zemlji), vnaprej določene, je vse njegovo delovanje prepuščeno njegovi svobodni volji, tako da lahko vsak v vsaki življenjski situaciji zase oziroma za svojo dušo poišče pravo hrano, ki zagotavlja njegov duhovno rast. In tako noben dogodek v življenju ne bo duše nikoli oviral.... ampak človek bo vedno prispeval k temu, ali bo imel vsak dogodek ugoden ali neugoden vpliv na dušo.... in tako si človek nikoli več ne more želeti, da bi bila zrelost njegove duše odvisna od življenjskih okoliščin, ki so mu dodeljene in ki same po sebi niso niti najmanj odločilne za to, kar človek misli najgloblje v svojem srcu.... čuti.... in želi.... Samo mišljenje, čutenje in volja človeku omogočajo zorenje duše, vse razmere, ki ga obdajajo, pa so namenjene le temu, da mišljenje, čutenje in volja dosežejo najvišjo stopnjo razvoja, da se človek lahko svobodno odloča.... Ne pa da je človek prisiljen ravnati drugače, kot mu narekuje njegova volja.
To vsekakor velja za čisto zemeljsko dejavnost, nikakor pa za notranje življenje, ki si ga lahko vsak človek oblikuje po lastni presoji. Edina razlika je v tem, da mora sam nositi posledice, če njegovo mišljenje, čutenje in hotenje kršijo božanski red. Za to je Bog dal ljudem razum, da lahko (to) prepoznajo.... in vedno znova opozorila tam, kjer se zemeljsko dete lahko izgubi....
Amen.
PrevajalciWhoever of men resists to hear the word of God will remain in long darkness of spirit, because when I preached such to men on earth they received the light from the heavens. But now the time has become much worse.... There is almost no human being on earth who is not offered the true teaching, and yet most of them close their hearts and ears to this teaching and only know how to talk about uninhibited enjoyment of life. And that is why My teaching remains so distant and incomprehensible to them, because the slightest hint of restriction of their enjoyment of life makes them unwilling and they would love to reject and deny everything. But divine power also has its means, for it always pursues the same end and therefore does not want to abandon any earthly child to its chosen fate. Admittedly, people call this coercive measures which completely counteract the desire which appeals to them and they therefore do not fully recognize free will.... However, they must consider the extent to which they themselves are responsible for what they now perceive as coercion and how easily they can escape it with only a little goodwill. They could always remain in the same relationship of a child to the father, who after all only wants to provide them with all the comforts and whose harshness they would never feel as long as they want to be closely attached to the father and intimate love unites them both. In the same way the heavenly father rules and keeps His children, who love Him and detest all injustice, away from all evil, oppressive and tormenting things and only uses these means when this relationship has suffered a blow and the earthly child now acts contrary to the father's instructions, Who nevertheless loves it and wants to give it everything that delights the child's heart. Every child is entitled to the blessings of faith and love.... if they do not accept them, indeed, if they obviously act against them and disregard them, then everything that is then perceived as coercion must come upon the earthly human being as a countermeasure.... Then the human being believes that he has been placed into creation completely unfree.... and has only himself and his hardened heart to blame for everything. And so it is precisely these people who are most likely to fall into the temptation to absolve themselves of responsibility, always with the good excuse of being forced to carry out everything, but this is only ever the result of their previous wrong actions. Every person is given the opportunity to freely choose a different path than the one he has taken or is taking.... who is preventing him from doing so.... but he chose this particular path precisely because he thought it was good, and so the effect of his actions will always be as it was the person's wish and will.... If he then realizes that the success is different from what he wanted, he now wants to blame another power for his supposed failure so that he does not have to recognize himself as the author of it. Those who endeavour to look within themselves for the starting point of all events that affect them will very soon come to a different opinion of "fate".
Although the paths he has to take are marked out for him, he is left free to do everything himself, so that everyone can find the right nourishment for himself or his soul in every situation in life to ensure its spiritual upswing. And thus no event in life will have to somehow hinder the soul.... but the human being will always contribute to whether every event has a favourable or unfavourable influence on the soul.... and thus the human being can never again want to make the degree of maturity of his soul dependent on the situation in life assigned to him, which in itself is not in the least decisive for what the human being thinks in his innermost heart.... feels.... and wants.... Only man's thinking, feeling and willing brings about the maturing of the soul, but all the circumstances surrounding him are only suited to bring thinking, feeling and willing to their highest development, so that man can decide freely.... But not that man is forced to act differently than his will dictates. This can certainly be applied to purely earthly activity, but never to the inner life, which every human being can form at his own discretion. The only difference is that he must bear the consequences even if his thinking, feeling and willing violate the divine order. For God gave people the intellect to be able to recognize.... and again and again hints where the earthly child threatens to go astray....
Amen
