»ŽIVLJENJE« POGOJUJE PREBUDITEV DUHA....
To je duh, ki oživlja (Jn 6,63)....
Dokler vi, ljudje, še niste prebudili duha v sebi v življenje, je vse znanje mrtvo in vas ne more pripeljati do življenja. In ne glede na to, kako globoko si razum prizadeva prodreti, ne bo dosegel svojega cilja - namreč, da bi z vso jasnostjo prodrl v Božji načrt odrešenja, tako da bi mu vse postalo razumljivo, da bi spoznal delovanje in vladanje Boga v Njegovi ljubezni in modrosti ter bi se vnél v ljubezni do Njega.... Šele prebujeni duh vidi svetlo in jasno. In človek tedaj stoji v spoznanju - ve za namen svojega bivanja, za vzrok in določitev (usodo) na tej Zemlji.
Toda mrtvo znanje je vse, kar je zgolj z razumom pridobljeno, o čemer duša še ne more spregovoriti, ker ji duh v človeku tega še ni mogel razložiti, saj njegovo delovanje še ni dovoljeno. To velja za duhovno znanje, ki se dotika področij, ki jih ni mogoče (znanstveno) »raziskati«, ki jih ni mogoče dokazati, pa vendar jih je treba imenovati najpomembnejša, četudi so človeškemu razumu nedoumljiva. Kajti ta duhovna dobrina ne zadeva le življenja na tej Zemlji, temveč se razteza tudi na kraljestvo onkraj te Zemlje, to se nanaša tudi na čas pred in po življenju na tej Zemlji....
In takšno znanje je zato lahko blagoslov samo tedaj, ko ga Božji duh ljudem pojasni, ko nekaj »živega« spregovori v še mrtvemu, da mu s tem tudi da življenje. In ta duh mora biti spodbujen k delovanju z voljo samega človeka; človek mora iz lastne pobude iskati povezavo z Bogom, večnim Očetom-Duhom, kar se lahko zgodi le skozi globoko iskreno molitev in skozi delovanje iz ljubezni.... S tem postane v njem duhovna iskra svobodna in tako dejavna. Povezanost z Bogom zagotavlja dotok moči in svetlobe; temno, nevedno stanje izginja, ker svetloba vse razsvetljuje, moč pa se izraža v vedno večji ljubeči dejavnosti....
Življenje se razlije nad tistim, kar je bilo doslej mrtvo; človek sam postane živahno dejaven, in vse doslej mrtvo znanje oživi, vse povezave človeku postanejo jasne, spozna, da se v božjem redu odvija načrt odrešenja; pozna razlog zanj in spozna, da je sam v središču tega načrta odrešenja, da ga zadeva osebno, da je treba doseči cilj in da ga lahko doseže le, če hodi v svetlobi (Mt 7,13).... da je, kot bi rekli, svetloba sama že cilj, in da brez te svetlobe (človek) večno ostaja v globini.... da »življenje« torej nujno pomeni oziroma zahteva tudi »prebujenje duha« v njem. Spozna, da vse mrtvo vodi vedno globlje, dokler ne postane popolna otopel. In vsak posameznik se mora sam prizadevati za to življenje, saj ga ni mogoče prenesti; vedno zahteva predanost Bogu, prošnjo za pomoč in pripravljenost delovati iz ljubezni....
In tega življenja nikoli ni mogoče nadomestiti z večjo dejavnostjo razuma, zato lahko vsak človek doseže življenje, tudi če je reven v razumskem znanju.... medtem ko visoka stopnja znanja še ne pomeni »življenja«, če človeku manjkajo ti pogoji: predanost Bogu in delovanje iz ljubezni. Tedaj večno ne bo dosegel življenja, kajti duh v njem spi, ni mu dana priložnost, da bi se izražal in širil svetlobo, in v človeku bo ostalo temno, ker je sam v duhu mrtev....
Amen.

'Life' requires awakening of the spirit....
It is the spirit that makes alive.... As long as you humans have not yet awakened the spirit within you to life, all knowledge is dead and cannot lead you to life. And no matter how deeply the intellect strives to penetrate, it will not reach its aim, namely to penetrate God's plan of salvation with full clarity so that everything becomes understandable to it, so that it recognizes God's working and activity in His love and wisdom and now burns with love for Him.... Only an awakened spirit sees brightly and clearly. And the human being now has realization, he knows about his purpose of existence, about cause and destiny on this earth. But dead knowledge is everything that is gained intellectually, which the soul cannot yet comment on because the spirit in the human being has not yet been able to explain it to it, whose working is not yet permitted. This applies to spiritual knowledge which touches those areas which cannot be 'researched', which cannot be proven and yet must be called the most important, even though it is inscrutable to human intellect. For this spiritual knowledge not only concerns life on this earth but it also extends to the kingdom beyond this earth, it also concerns the time before and after life on this earth.... And such knowledge can therefore only be of blessing when the spirit from God explains it to people, when something 'living' speaks to the still dead in order to thereby also give him life. And this spirit must be prompted to work by the will of the human being himself, the human being must seek the connection with God, the father-spirit from eternity, of his own accord, which can only ever happen through heartfelt prayer and through lovingprayer.... Thereby the spiritual spark in him becomes free and thus active. The bond with God ensures the supply of strength and light, the dark, unknowing state disappears because the light illuminates everything, and the strength expresses itself in constantly increased loving activity.... Life comes over that which was hitherto dead, the human being himself becomes eagerly active and all hitherto dead knowledge also comes alive, all correlations become clear to the human being, he recognizes that a plan of salvation is unfolding in divine order; he knows the reason for it and recognizes that he himself is at the centre of that plan of salvation, that it concerns himself, that an aim has to be reached and that he can only reach that aim if he walks in the light.... that, as it were, the light itself is already the aim, that without this light he remains eternally in the depths.... that 'life' therefore also necessarily means or requires 'awakening of the spirit' in him. He recognizes that everything dead only leads deeper and deeper until complete torpor is his lot. And each individual must strive for this life himself, for it cannot be transferred but always requires devotion to God, the request for help and the willingness to love.... And this life can never be replaced by increased intellectual activity, which is why every person can attain life even if he is poor in intellectual knowledge.... whereas a high degree of knowledge still does not signify 'life' if the person lacks these conditions: Devotion to God and activity of love. Then he will eternally not attain life, for the spirit slumbers within him, it is not given the opportunity to express itself and spread light, and it will remain dark in the human being, for he himself is dead in spirit....
Amen
