3169 Premature departure last mercy....

June 24, 1944: Book 41

Countless souls pass over into the spiritual kingdom in an immature state when they die, and their fate is therefore not very enviable. The kingdom of light is closed to them and they are in an environment which is adapted to their immature state.... but which is not at all suitable for them, for in these souls selfish love is particularly strongly developed, which is why they practiced little love for their fellow human beings on earth and were unable to achieve a high degree of development. This selfish love now makes them feel their inadequate fate with particular difficulty, for they will not be able to satisfy it anywhere. Although its own desire presents it with everything it desires, as soon as it tries to grasp it it realizes that they are only illusions, and this realization is all the more agonizing the more it desires earthly goods. It has not yet overcome matter in earthly life and takes the desire for it with it into the beyond, and consequently it does not feel the need to hand out and make the souls who share its fate happy, because it had little sympathy for the suffering and worries of its fellow human beings on earth either. And yet God still grants these souls favors and gives them new opportunities for development so that they can still reach higher maturity in the beyond. For due to their inclination towards earth, which is characteristic of all immature souls, they still predominantly stay close to earth, and they can now see the destructions carried out by human hands, they recognize the worthlessness of earthly goods, they see the earthly hardship on earth and can even feel prompted by it to express their will to help. And thus the earthly hardship contributes to a change of thinking in individual souls, and they overcome ego-love and are now at the beginning of their higher development in the beyond. This grace is still granted by God to countless people today, so that people's lack of love will indeed bring about their earthly end, since earthly life is not used for the souls' higher development, but that the now departed souls are nevertheless allowed to stay close to earth in order to change their attitude through people's suffering and misery, in order to realize the worthlessness of earthly possessions and to suppress their desire for them. However, if self-love is exceptionally strong, then this earthly hardship will not contribute to the change either, then the desire will only become ever more intense for the goods of the world and the being's own imagination will make it believe all the things it longs for. But then the state is also exceptionally agonizing, and the soul is in greatest danger to develop regressively and to no longer use the last grace in the kingdom of the beyond. This danger is great, and yet the death before the last end is still a blessing for such immature souls, for then there is no longer the opportunity to mature in the beyond despite a low degree of maturity. Premature death is therefore proof of divine love, which still wants to bring salvation to such souls since they have failed in earthly life. It is a last resort to change into love, and God leaves no means untried in order to still bring salvation to all beings before it is too late. Yet how it uses these means is left up to its free will....
