2571 Upcoming suffering last chance....
December 3, 1942: Book 33
Your path on earth turns into an extremely tragic one because you yourselves are the cause of it. The time of your redemption is approaching its end, yet you are not using it for your soul's salvation, and your fate afterwards is so agonizing that God wants to spare you it and He uses all means to make you make use of the remaining time of your redemption. God's plan has been determined since eternity, and He also knows since eternity that only few people use this last time according to His will. The human being's will cannot be forcibly influenced but it must remain up to him how he utilizes his earthly life for the salvation of his soul. And that is why you are facing an experience which will hit you hard and take away all joy of life. And yet God's love is the reason, for it wants to help you, it wants to create opportunities for you to change your way of life of your own accord, it wants to give you eternal life but you have to acquire it of your own free will. But as soon as earthly life no longer offers you any attractions it will be easy for you to prepare yourselves for eternal life. God will take away your earthly enjoyment of life so that you will desire eternal possessions. As soon as you recognize His love you will be helped, and therefore God will let His servants announce the change of your life to you, He will send you warnings and admonish you to humbly accept your fate and to derive the right benefit from it. For life on earth only lasts a short time, but the life afterwards lasts forever. And that this is a life of happiness for you is the purpose of the coming severe suffering which will affect the earth. God knows about all the hardships you are facing and yet this is still the only way to prepare yourselves for eternal life. Do not let this last opportunity pass you by unused, resign yourselves to the inevitable, ask God for strength and mercy and commend yourselves to His grace. Lead a life with God and it will be bearable for you; help each other and endeavour to always live in love and you will receive strength unmeasured. God's love and wisdom only ever seek to promote your spiritual progress, and if you bear this in mind you will know that everything God sends to you is necessary for the salvation of your soul and humbly bear your suffering and God will bless you....
Amen
