3146 Rejecting the divine word....
June 3, 1944: Book 41
The blatant rejection of My word proves a still significant spiritual low, a lack of heartfelt love and heartfelt bond with Me. For through love and conscious desire for Me the spirit in the human being is already awakened, and this spiritual spark recognizes Me and will never ever reject Me. My working will be understandable to him, My love and omnipotence justifies My working to him, and he also recognizes the spiritual adversity which has moved My love and omnipotence to come to people's aid.... And thus it can be safely concluded that a person is still inwardly alienated from Me, even if his words sound different if he rejects My word and does not acknowledge Me as the originator of it. My gift speaks for Me, and My gift is recognizable to the one who already carries Me in his heart through heartfelt prayer and loving activity. I am love and therefore in every person who is active in love; so how could a person who is already united to Me through love not recognize My voice? He must only pay attention to My word, he must seriously want to test My word and not the recipient of My word, for only I, Who sees through a person's heart and mind, am entitled to test him.... You will recognize them by their fruits.... so you should test the fruits.... My word, which also reveals its origin to you brightly and clearly, if you are able to test it through a way of life pleasing to Me, through working in love and eagerly striving for Me.... Therefore only reject what is offered to you if it is in accordance with My love, wisdom and omnipotence.... if it contradicts My divine nature.... Only then do you have the right to reject it. But whatever teaches you love and reveals My love for you, whatever reveals My greater than great wisdom and omnipotence, accept it as My word, given by Myself and conveyed to earth in order to help you humans in spiritual adversity. Where would you humans end up if I did not want to approach you again and again with mercy? People no longer respect what they possess, for they no longer feel the strength since the mediators of My word no longer carry it alive in their hearts but only pass on adopted spiritual knowledge which lacks any life. And I want to give you the living word again, which supplies you with all strength and which is therefore also much more effective if you accept it and live accordingly. And every person who seriously desires the truth and strives towards Me must also recognize My word, for I truly do not give it such that it is difficult for people to accept it as a father's gift if they themselves are not inwardly distant from Me. Everyone who is of good will will be able to feel the strength flowing from My word. What child does not recognize the voice of its father?.... And if I therefore speak loving words to My children, don't reject them but gratefully accept what My love offers you so that My word will refresh you and provide you with the strength you need in the time to come....
amen
