3678 Christ problem....

February 6, 1946: Book 46

The people of this earth fail at the Christ problem in the last time before the end. And that is because they themselves are devoid of all love and therefore cannot and will not recognize the greatest love. And since the teaching of Christ completely contradicts their desires and their behaviour, it is being attacked as an obstacle to the work of reconstruction which they intend to undertake after the work of destruction which the natural catastrophe has accomplished. They see Christian doctrine as a stumbling block to the execution of their plans, and therefore they declare war on Christ. Complete ignorance and a diabolical attitude are the driving forces of this battle, through which they also want to deprive the knowing followers of Christ of their last support for the sake of earthly goods. For every disposal contradicts the divine commandment of love. People will be forced into a way of thinking which will completely shape them into devils if they don't defend themselves and take refuge in the one Who alone can grant them help against satan and his servants on earth.... to Christ, Who again presents Himself to them for battle.... Christ is not acknowledged, for people try to eradicate everything divine on earth, but they neither recognize Christ as divine nor as redeemer of humanity, and therefore He is openly belittled, His name is mocked and ridiculed and His followers are harassed in the worst way. And more necessary than ever is His confession to the world.... For He alone imparts strength to people if they acknowledge His act of salvation, He alone has power over satan and He alone strengthens people to resist; without Him, however, the human being is powerlessly exposed to satan’s power, without Him he is in firm chains from which he cannot free himself. And that is why the bearers of truth are given particularly clear information about the problem of Christ, so that they can inform all who desire information about it. It is explained to people that only love constitutes the divinity of Jesus' humanity, that through love every human being shapes himself into a divine being, into a child of God, and that through love every human being achieves extraordinary abilities, because love in itself is a strength which has eternal love as its starting point and is effective in every human being who has become love.... so that people will now also understand that they must never ever reject Christ and His teaching if they don't want to go down into the kingdom of darkness, where weakness and eternal darkness of the souls is the lot. Every battle against Christ as the bringer of the teaching of love and thus the divine guide to strength and light will therefore result in the most severe and painful consequences if it is not passed, if the fighter does not take Christ's side, where he can never be defeated. And whatever is demanded of people in the last days.... who walk with Christ and stand up for Him and His teaching will have extraordinary strength to defy all worldly demands.... But those who deny Him, who as satan’s servants help him to eradicate Christ and His teaching, will be judged, for their devilish attitude cannot find mercy with God on the day of judgment. Ignorance is no excuse because every person is given sufficient opportunity to think about Christ and His act of salvation, about His mission and His teaching of love on earth, and it will not be difficult for anyone willing to find understanding for a problem which only remains a problem as long as the human being does not concern himself with it. Anyone who lives in love knows what strength love is, and he also knows that the God-man Jesus only possessed the extraordinary strength because His nature was pure love.... And if people are not to fall prey to the prince of the underworld completely without strength they must acquire strength through love.... they must follow Jesus Christ, they must acknowledge Him and His teaching, they must keep His commandments which only require love, and they will remain victorious over all powers of the underworld, for they contend with Jesus Christ, Who is and will remain invincible for all eternity....

Amen
