1. The Holy Word
Holy is the Word! So holy that I would withdraw it from humans on earth once again, for they lack any conception of, indeed, even the slightest inkling of the greatness of this Word! I feel compelled to veil the Word protectively, so that it may never come into contact with the blasphemous conceit or even the indifference of these human souls, who, through their spiritual indolence, have become so incredibly narrow-minded and thereby emptied of knowledge within themselves.
What do they still know of holiness! The holiness of God and also of His Word! It is pitiful! One would want to despair and lose heart upon this realization. I feel compelled to choose from among all humanity only a few to whom I may continue to proclaim the Word – ten or twenty at most – yet even these few would not grasp the conception of true holiness and thus also not possess the right attitude towards the greatness and value of My Word!
To impart the holy Word to these humans on earth is, for me, the hardest task I have to fulfil.
What this means, what lies within these words, you cannot grasp either! So I stand before you here on earth with the awareness that even the best among you will never truly understand me, will not even grasp a tenth of what is conveyed to them through My Word. You do indeed hear it, you hold it in your hands, yet you do not make use of its value for yourselves! I see how the high values, the unspeakable forces, remain unnoticed, while you reach for things which, in comparison to the Word you have, cannot even be regarded as the most inconspicuous speck of dust.
I stand before you with this knowledge. Each time I spiritually resist allowing you access to the High Grail Celebrations, the significance of which, the solemnity and purest power of which, you will never grasp. So many of you do not even make an honest effort to at least contemplate their meaning in the right way! Added to this are the exalted Acts of the Sealing and the Meal! The Sealing! You would cast yourselves into the dust trembling if you could recognize, if you could consciously perceive, even the slightest part of the immeasurable vitality in these Acts!
Indeed, at times, a blissful, unknown sensation may take hold of a human soul, allowing it to sense the Force of the Light from close of God. Yet all this is quickly blurred again by the pressing demands of petty everyday worries, everyday joys and pleasures.
It is only when the human soul enters the Ethereal Realm that it gradually gains a new understanding of all that it was permitted to experience here on earth.
Yet even though this is but a shadow of the sheer magnitude of force of the actual happenings, it is nevertheless sufficient to shake every human soul to its very core! It can hardly believe that it was permitted to experience all this; so much of God’s Grace is revealed to it therein. Overwhelmed by all this, it longs to shake the people of the earth, to rouse them so that that they might break through their superficiality and strive, even now, to feel these graces more strongly than before.
But it is a futile endeavour! Earthly humans have become far too obtuse for this through their own actions. Through their zealous of endeavours on their false paths, they have rendered themselves incapable of it. With a bleeding heart, every awakened soul in the Ethereal Realm therefore turns away, knowing in deep remorse that they themselves were no different here on earth and can hardly expect more from the others still here on earth.
Thus, everything within me now rebels when I think that I must now have this Holy Message spread by my disciples; for I know that not a single person among humans will ever truly know what they are receiving through it, what immeasurably great Grace of God lies in the fact that they are permitted to hear it! And against this ignorance, this indifference, this wanting-to-know-better on the part of such humans, I am to bring forth something that comes in purity from the steps of the Throne of God! It costs struggle within me; costs me great effort overcoming myself! New every hour!
Yet in this one thing comforts me in this! Amidst every mockery, every derision, every disparaging remark or every sign of sluggish indifference on the part of humanity, I am satisfied by my knowledge that they each judge themselves by their deeds and thoughts regarding the Word, the greatness of which they do not wish to see, passing it by heedlessly. It is a comfort to me knowing that with every word they speak about My Message they pronounce their own judgement, which carries within it either destruction or life for themselves.
This knowledge lets me endure and overcome everything! Not a single soul can escape it now. I now hurl the Word at you as a Sword of Judgement, in the fulfilment of the Last Judgement! This lets the sadness loosen its hold on me! Let humans now take offence at it as they will; they only wound themselves. Let them sneer, mock or shake their heads... all of this recoils upon them in the swiftest reciprocal action!
Years have passed since I first observed the human spirit with horror and came to my own conclusions about their fate according to the Primordial Laws of Creation.
Horror came upon me because I saw that it was no longer possible to help humans in any other way than by showing them the path they must follow to escape destruction.
This made me unspeakably sad; for, given the current state of humanity, there can only be one outcome: the certainty that the vast majority of all humanity will inevitably be lost as the free choice in every decision is left to them!
According to the Laws of Creation, however, the free will of decision can never be taken from the human spirit! This is inherent in the nature of the spirit! And it is on this, on themselves, that the great masses will now fall in the present Judgement!
Every decision determines the path one must tread in Creation, including here on earth. The trappings of one’s profession and of necessary everyday life are merely side issues, often resulting from the consequences of decisions taken freely long ago. However, only the decision is free for the human spirit! With the decision the self-acting lever is set in motion, which lets the Laws of God in Creation to work according to the nature of the decision! Such is the free will that the human spirit possesses! It lies solely in the unconditional freedom of decision. The spiritual decision, however, immediately releases a formerly mysterious self-acting activity in Creation. This activity further develops the nature of the volition that lay in the decision without the knowledge of the human spirit, right up to maturity and hence to a final effect which will suddenly appear at some time, according to the force of the original decision and the nourishment that this nature received from similar kinds on its path through Creation.
Humans must then endure the consequences of every decision they have made. They cannot and must not regard this as unjust; for in the final effect, it is always only that which was contained in the decision. However, the final effect always affects only the originator of the decision, even if the decision was intended for another. By the time the final effect occurs, the authors will often have long since forgotten the original decision. Their volition and their decisions may have changed completely by that time, or even the opposite of what they once were, but the consequences of their former decision quietly follow their lawful, self-acting course to the end, even without their knowledge.
Humans always stand in the amidst of the consequences of all their decisions, many of which they no longer even remember or think about; consequently, they often feel it is an injustice when this or that strike them unexpectedly as a final effect. But they can rest assured about this. Nothing befalls them that they have not themselves once given cause; that they have not themselves literally brought into being through some decision and thus ‘placed’ within Creation to take effect under the Laws! Be it in thought, word or deed! They have set the lever in motion. Everything originally stems from their will, and every will is a decision!
Yet, failing to recognize the Laws of Creation, humans constantly cry out about injustice and ask where the much-vaunted human free will is! Scholars write and speak about it, yet in reality, everything is so simple! Free will can only ever lie in the ability to make free decisions, never otherwise. And this ability is and always remains preserved for the human spirit within Creation for its path. They only always forgets or overlooks one important fact: that, despite everything, it is and remains merely a creature, a product of this Subsequent Creation, which emerged from its ever-existing and unchangeable laws and can therefore never circumvent or disregard these laws! The laws take effect whether they will it or not, whether it seems fitting or unfit to them. They are a nothing within it. Like a child walking alone, they may indeed strike out on their path according to their will, but are then subject to the nature of the path, regardless of whether it is easy or difficult to walk upon, whether a beautiful destination lies at the end or an abyss.
With every new decision one makes, a new path is thus created, and with it a new thread in the tapestry of one’s destiny. The old paths, which until then are still unresolved, nevertheless continue to run ahead of the newer ones until they have been fully traversed. These are not yet severed by a new path but must still be lived through and walked to the end. In the process, the old paths sometimes cross with the new ones, thereby bringing about new twists.
Humans must resolve all this by living it through, and in doing so they often wonder how they could have ended up in a particular situation, because they have not remained conscious of their earlier decisions, while remaining subject to their consequences until they have run their course and been ‘lived out’! These paths cannot be removed from the world in any other way than by the producers themselves. They cannot turn away from them, as they remain firmly anchored within them until complete settlement.
Thus, all the consequences of every single decision must be brought to a conclusion; only then do they fall away from the originator and are no more. But if the threads of new, good decisions intersect the still-running tracks of earlier, evil decisions, then the effects of these former, evil consequences are correspondingly weakened by the crossing of the new, good ones and, if these new good decisions are very strong, they may even be completely dissolved in such a way that the evil consequences in the coarse material world need only be redeemed symbolically. This, too, is strictly in accordance with the Laws of God’s Will in Creation.
Everything in Creation works in this way, without humans ever being able to change anything about it; for this is a working around and above them. They thus stand within and under the Law of Creation.
In My Message, you will find the way by which, with certainty, you can reach the Luminous Heights through this labyrinth of the consequences of your decisions!
However, a serious obstacle stands in your way! It is the obstacle that filled Me with horror: that you must do all this yourselves, each one entirely on your own.
This condition lies in the lawfulness of your free will in decision-making and in the subsequent self-acting workings of events in Creation and within you!
The volition in the decision forms a path which, depending on the nature of the volition, leads either upwards or downwards. Human volition in the present age, however, predominantly leads you only downwards, and with this descent, which you yourselves cannot even perceive, there is simultaneously a corresponding diminishing and a narrowing of your capacity of your understanding. This limit of your understanding, that is, your horizon, thereby becomes smaller, and for this reason you nevertheless always imagine that you are still standing at the same height as before, because this limit is, after all, truly the respective utmost height for you! You are unable to follow an expanded boundary. You cannot comprehend what lies beyond your own boundary, and you reject it all, shaking your head or even zealously, as false or non-existent.
This is why you do not so easily cast off your faults! You see them in others, but not in yourselves. No matter how clearly I make it understandable, you do not apply it to yourselves. You believe everything I say, as long as it concerns others. But what I have to reproach in you, over which so often drives me to despair, you cannot grasp, because therein all the boundaries around the dear ‘ego” have become too narrow! This is the point where so much fails; this is where I cannot help you, because you must shatter these boundaries yourselves, from within, with unconditional faith in the mission I have to fulfil.
And that is not as easy as you might think. You often stand before me with troubled countenance, hearts full of love for the great task, and you mourn for all those who do not want or are not able to recognize their faults. And I, I know that many of the faults you so severely rebuke in others, despairing over their conduct, are anchored in far greater measure within yourselves. That is the most terrible thing of all! And this, too, is rooted in the free will of decision, which must be left to you, for it is anchored in the spiritual. I can indeed reject or acknowledge you, can raise you or cast you down through the Force of the Light according as you yourselves honestly will it, but I can never force anyone to set out upon a path towards the Luminous Heights! That lies solely in the hands of each individual.
Therefore, I once more admonishingly point out this process: with every step downward, the boundaries of your ability to understand close in ever tighter together, without your becoming conscious of it yourselves! You would therefore never believe it if I told you, because you cannot grasp it, and so I cannot help where no new great voluntary decision arises which comes through longing or through faith.
Only then can I bestow the Force for victory! Victory over yourselves, whereby the walls and narrow boundaries are swiftly broken through by the reviving spirit that seeks to soar upwards. I show you the way and, if you truly desire it, I will also give you the necessary Force for it. Thus I can help where there is genuine will and genuine supplication.
Yet once more an obstacle then confronts the individual. This lies in the fact that the Force can only benefit them if they not only take it in but apply it correctly! They must themselves apply it in the right way; they must not let it rest within themselves, otherwise it will again be drawn away from them, back to the starting points of this Force. Thus, one obstacle after another arises if one does not sincerely will with all one’s might! And very few are equal to these obstacles. Humanity has already become too spiritually indolent; an ascent can only succeed in constant activity and vigilance!
This process is, of course, both simple and grand. In it is anchored most wonderfully perfect justice, which now also brings about the Judgement.
But to be able to be saved in this without humility is impossible for a human spirit! True humility is hindered by its conceit about knowledge which is no knowledge; for in relation to the capabilities, among all the creatures of this subsequent Creation humans must in reality be described as the most stupid, because they are too conceited to receive anything in humility.
There is nothing to argue about here, for it is so. Yet humanity will not admit this, does not want to believe it, again as a consequence of its boundless conceit, which is always but the sure product of stupidity. Only stupidity gives rise to conceit; for where true knowledge is, conceit has no place. It can arise only within the narrow boundaries of lowly self-delusion and nowhere else.
Where knowledge begins, conceit ends. Since the vast majority of humanity today lives only in conceit, knowledge is absent.
Humanity has altogether lost the concept of true knowledge! No one knows what knowledge is any more! It is not without reason that the well-known saying from popular folk wisdom lives on: “Only in the highest knowledge of a human being does the wisdom arise of the conviction of the fact that he knows nothing!”
Therein lies the truth! But once humans have gained this conviction, conceit dies within them, and the reception of true knowledge can begin.
All learning through study has nothing to do with knowledge! An eager learner can become a scholar, but for that reason alone he is still far from being called a knower. Therefore, the term “science” as it is used today is also incorrect. Modern humans may well speak of scholarship but not of knowledge! What they learn at universities is merely scholarship – a heightening and crowning of learning! It is something acquired, not something of one’s own! Only what is one’s own is knowledge! Knowledge can only come from experience, not from learning.
Thus, in My Message, I merely point the way, so that, along the way, those who walk upon it may have experiences that bring them knowledge. One must also first ‘experience’ Creation if they truly wish to know it. I give them the possibility for this experiencing through my knowledge, since I Myself continually experience Creation.
We shall therefore in future have scholars and knowers. The scholars can and must learn from the knowers!
Conceit will no longer exist in the new Kingdom, in the coming generation! It is the greatest obstacle to ascent, hurling millions of humans into annihilation because they cannot or will not let go of it, presently! But this is a good thing; for Creation will thereby be cleansed of the useless creatures who only take up space and nourishment away from others and spread themselves out without yielding the slightest benefit. Fresh air will then be available for useful human spirits!
What do they still know of holiness! The holiness of God and also of His Word! It is pitiful! One would want to despair and lose heart upon this realization. I feel compelled to choose from among all humanity only a few to whom I may continue to proclaim the Word – ten or twenty at most – yet even these few would not grasp the conception of true holiness and thus also not possess the right attitude towards the greatness and value of My Word!
