2540 Purpose of creation alignment with God....

November 6, 1942: Book 33

The ultimate purpose of creation is to draw closer to God.... God seeks to lead back to Himself everything that once emanated from Him as power but is permanently subject to His will. The will of the beingness in creation is still directed against Him, and only when it bends its will under the divine will has the harmonization with God taken place and the purpose of creation been fulfilled. But the harmonization with God results in eternal life, which is a state in everlasting fullness of light and strength, a state of happiness and eternal glory, which God's great love had originally intended for it, but which also presupposes a certain degree of perfection, which the beingness must have reached through its own will. God's works of creation give the being abundant opportunity to develop to perfection. And God's love never leaves it without support, but the being's own will also has to become active without fail, the being has to decide for itself and therefore cover a probationary period where all freedom is given to it and it can therefore also decide in freedom of will which final goal seems desirable to it; for despite His greater than great love God does not force any being to belong to Him but leaves it complete freedom of will, but still tries to reveal itself to them that their will decides in favour of Him in order to secure them a life in glory. For His love does not want to let anything get lost that originated in Him. And His wisdom recognizes the right and only purpose-fulfilling means which allowed His will and His power to become something visible.... He created heaven and earth for the final redemption of the spiritual, which had become unfree beings through its former rebellion against God Himself, so that it can now regain its freedom....

Amen
