3738 God's intervention on account of unbelievers....

April 7, 1946: Book 47

Anyone who does not want to accept the Gospel which I send to people through you should not try to force it upon him, for if his free will does not become active, if he does not have the inner will to live in pure truth, My Word will also fail to have an effect, and it sounds no different than any other spoken Word and is therefore also without strength. Where the will for truth is lacking little success can be recorded, yet the great earthly adversity can awaken this will, just as, on the other hand, it can also cause a person to completely deny Me. And there will always be a battle between those who strive towards the truth and those who reject the truth, and the latter will outnumber the former. For My adversary is constantly intent on extinguishing all light, and he will work particularly fiercely where there is a source of light and his activity will clearly come to light. People themselves could certainly make his activity impossible through their resistance, but they would have to draw the strength to do so from My Word if they wanted to offer resistance, yet they cannot muster this will. What is offered to people by Me is very much bright and clear and recognisable as truth to anyone who seriously examines it. But a lack of will to examine and compliance with the whispers of My adversary also makes the human being's thinking weak and incapable of judgement. And the working of My spirit is not recognised because it does not want to be recognised. The will to reject My Word is stronger than the will to examine it. And then every word is in vain for you, then only the last possibility remains to break this strong opposing will.... by Me appearing to you Myself in the previously announced way.... If this last resort fails to work then people can never again be guided into the truth and then the path to bliss will also be closed to them, for their will is free and I do not force it. Yet I shall irrevocably use the last resort, for My Word is truth and I also want to prove the truth of My Word to the unbelievers. Yet this proof will be very painful and will end the lives of countless people on earth whose souls will then have to continue the spiritual battle in the beyond with greater or lesser difficulty. And if the will of the individual is not completely hardened and turned away from Me, this last intervention by Me can still bring about a change of will. And therefore I also carry it out because every single soul is dear to Me and I want to save it from destruction, because I still want to give every single soul the opportunity to detach itself from the opposing power and to recognise Me and My working in My intervention. For this realisation is the beginning of the change, which the soul can then continue on earth or in the beyond with faster success because its resistance is broken and it can accept My supply of strength if it desires it. The hardened will of many people requires a hard school, and for their sake I shall express Myself as soon as the hour has come which I have determined since eternity....

Amen
