2897 Divorce of the spirits.... last judgment....

September 26, 1943: Book 37

The adversary will rage mercilessly amongst My own and therefore My judgment will also be merciless.... For now the spirits will separate, there will only be people who profess Me and those who completely deny Me and who declare war on everything that is faithful to Me and points to Me. And then the hour will have come when a separation will take place, when the shell of every spirit will be mercilessly destroyed, which only harbors that which opposes Me, which will be banished in a new, harder shell for an inconceivably long time. This judgment has to take place, otherwise even that which is attached to Me will still be lost, for satan works with all the power at his disposal for the sake of the last free decision. And My love comes to the aid of all people but cannot become effective where it is rejected. And that is why humanity sinks ever deeper in order to finally completely fall prey to the adversary and therefore start its renewed path of development in endless distance from Me so that it can one day become blissfully happy. It is an apparent act of cruelty which nevertheless aims to win back the apostate and which therefore cannot be avoided because there is no other way to win him back. Whoever resists Me distances himself further and further from Me and this means that his spiritual substance cools down, that it hardens into solid matter. The spiritual substance now has to taste all the agonies of being bound so that it will strive upwards, towards freedom, of its own accord and give up its resistance against Me. For I love My living creations and will not allow any of them to be lost forever. Yet where My love is not recognized My power and wisdom has to express itself recognizably, and this will happen on the day of judgment, when My own will be liberated from greatest earthly adversity, when I Myself will come to judge the living and the dead who believe in Me and will therefore live forever and who are My adversaries and therefore have to succumb to spiritual death until they acknowledge My love and desire it, only then will they awaken to life too. Endless long times will pass in greatest agony of bondage, for that which opposes Me has to be bound so that its influence will no longer harm those who are turned towards Me, who remain faithful to Me even in greatest earthly adversity.... And this judgment is no longer far away.... And the suffering and tribulation, the terror and hardship that will still befall the earth beforehand are the last means to help the apostates to recognize Me and to strive towards Me. Yet anyone who is already enslaved by My adversary no longer recognizes Me, he is blinded and sees the world and its pleasures as the final fulfilment of his earthly life. And everything will be destroyed before his eyes and he himself will sink into the abyss, for he was striving to displace Me because he handed himself over to that power which wanted to corrupt him forever....

amen
