0991 Spiritual riches.... conscious rejection of the truth....

July 2, 1939: Book 19

being in living contact with the divine lord brings man the greatest spiritual wealth, and this direct instruction should therefore be extremely desirable to people, but they often do not recognize such an extraordinary working of the eternal deity in its full extent and are therefore little interested in it as long as they do not penetrate the divine reign and working through love within themselves. The blessing of divine teachings lies only in the perseverance of constantly receiving them. It is only through its constant willingness that the earthly child gives proof that it is imbued with the divine teaching.... He no longer asks for earthly success, but is always and constantly intent on collecting spiritual goods and completely disregards earthly advantages. Yet this obvious working of God will remain a difficult problem for people to solve, despite many attempts, where the human being is immensely occupied by earthly activity in his daily life. All attempts fail where intellectual clarification is required, whereas the evidence of divine activity of love is irrefutable and indestructible by hostile power where the human being wants to recognize it. The human being, who always wants to prove, will not shy away from making false claims in order to be able to deny only spiritual working, and yet in the end the truth will obviously come to light, for the truth will continue to exist throughout eternal times, whereas everything that does not want to recognize the truth must perish. And thus it is far more beneficial to receive the divine gifts and allow them to take effect even without the necessary understanding than to not allow the pure truth to come to the fore due to purely human weakness. For this will come to light and those who consciously reject it and do not increase their spiritual wealth will be at a great disadvantage....

Amen
