3150 End of the redemption period....

June 6, 1944: Book 41

You humans already have an incomprehensibly long period of development behind you, and now you are shortly before the end of a period which was given to you for perfection. Life on earth as a human being is the conclusion of a period of development, but now everything is drawing to a close, for the earth in its present form will not continue to exist. It experiences a total transformation because the human race, which at present inhabits the earth, no longer fulfills its task of development and therefore the earth in its present form has become purposeless and therefore experiences a reshaping so that again new possibilities of stay are created for the spiritual, which leaves the earth unfinished and therefore is banished again into the creations of the new earth. The infinitely long time of development before the embodiment as man will then have been in vain for him if he fails in the last stage. God's infinite love has still given the beingness the opportunity to develop in the beyond so that it can still mature there, albeit under far more difficult conditions than on earth. But now a redemption period is approaching its end and this also means a conclusion of the opportunities granted to the spiritual substance to mature in the beyond. For the people of the last days will no longer have the degree of maturity at their death in order to be accepted into the spheres of the beyond unless God's mercy calls them away beforehand, in a time of greatest hardship and tribulation which will result in their recognition of an eternal deity before their death. The last ones, however, are completely turned away from God, they are hardened and inaccessible to instruction and therefore no longer capable of improvement. And they are deprived of any possibility of higher development by having their bodily life taken from them and the essence in them being bound anew in solid form. What this means can only be appreciated by those who know about the endlessly long path through creation that the beingness has to cover. And even he cannot begin to imagine it until he has entered the kingdom of light and knows about his own course of development. Yet God granted the spiritual substance an abundant period of redemption which it did not use to draw closer to Him but to increase its distance. And for such beings there is no more ascent on this earth but only a constant regression, the end of which has to be banishment into the solid form.... People are now so ignorant and unteachable that they don't recognize the end time, that they don't give any thought to where the spiritual low shall lead, because they reject everything spiritual and only pay attention to their earthly life. And an end has to be put to this state, humanity has to be forcibly pointed to this end for the time being. And if this is also unsuccessful it will approach its downfall, that is, earthly the earth and with it its inhabitants will experience a total process of change in that the earth will completely reshape itself in its external form and people will likewise face a total external change of form.... that their carnal cover will fall off the beingness and a solid matter will enclose it again which will take away all freedom of will and it will be bound again for an infinitely long time. Although this is presented to people, they do not change their way of life because they do not believe and are immersed in complete spiritual darkness and completely wrong thinking due to their loveless life. A person can only come to knowledge through love, and if he lacks it he is blind in spirit and inaccessible to any imagination. Yet God constantly admonishes and warns people, and if they were to pay attention to the time and its events, to the voices that preach to them about love, they would also become suspicious and reflect on these signs. Yet satan has them in his grip and they themselves do not have the will to free themselves from him. And that is why the end will inevitably come, for the redemption period will be over in a short time....

amen
