1089 The new spiritual kingdom.... overthrow of earthly power....

September 11, 1939: Book 20

The greatness of the mighty will diminish and his light will fade, and he who exalts himself above all will lose his glory and honour. For the lord has set limits for everyone, and whoever sits on a high throne will fall.... whoever rules will have to serve or sink into poverty and hardship. For there is a ruler enthroned above all earthly things, and he exalts the small and sets them above the great. And a kingdom will arise, ruled by love, which will harbour true brothers within its borders, and one will serve the other and only respect the will of the one Who is incomparably loving, kind and just. Everything that is hostile to this kingdom will be weakened, and so the power of the former will increase and the power of those who seek a feud with Him will be weak and void. And where the lord lifts up the weak and overthrows the mighty, there the world regocnizes the will of God, and it regocnizes His justice, wisdom and omnipotence. And those who bow to this realization, who surrender and humbly submit to the laws of divine order and do not rebel against them, will still be assigned an office. They will be informed of the surprising successes of all those who serve the lord, and they will come together from all over the world, and the most peculiar indications and interpretations will all have the same purpose.... the community of those who are to bring the new kingdom to life spiritually will be formed. And thus the lord God will bring together those who are of the same spirit, He will enlighten every heart so that it regocnizes the father's voice and follows it. And these will then succeed in making the new kingdom blossom, and it will mature in the spirit, it will bear glorious fruit.... and those who are of the same spirit will support the servants of the lord and help to build up the spiritual kingdom, which no longer looks to the world, no longer to earthly rank and power and glory, but only longs for the power of the spiritual and divine glory. The fact that the world must now pay its tribute in order to bear witness to the glory of God is of such infinite value for the whole of humanity, for only when everything spiritual has dominated the earthly, the worldly, will the spiritual have triumphed and disputed the rank of the world with its strife and contention, its splendour and pomp. The power of the spiritual will remain strong and therefore considerably superior to all matter, and therefore the end will and must also be near, which will bring a complete separation from the spiritual and all matter.... People will be offered fullest enlightenment but if they reject it the world will have to be afflicted by all kinds of disaster, for only then is a final salvation possible and a turning of the creature towards its creator.... Therefore watch out for the time when the earthly power will fall and know that then the time has come which will bring the spiritual kingdom close to you; know that you then have to decide to belong to it for all times or to be cast out for time and eternity....

Amen
