3770 Doubt, too, is God's help towards truth....

May 14, 1946: Book 48

The fact that you humans come into conflict with yourselves is sometimes necessary in order to lead you to complete clarity about that which still rests within you as an unsolved problem. For only when you can defend something with conviction from within it will be of lasting value to you. And that is why you have to get into doubt and disagreement so that the process of right thinking can start, which always presupposes serious questioning. And therefore, come to Me so that I enlighten your spirit, so that I organise your thinking and introduce you to the truth. For the latter only emanates from Me and anyone who wants to know the truth must want to receive it from Me, he must consult Me and ask for My clarification. I Myself hand out the most precious gift, the eternal truth, because I Am Truth Myself.... but only to the one who desires it. In order to desire the truth, however, a person must be in doubt as to whether he possesses the pure truth, otherwise he will never desire it. He who believes himself to be in the truth holds on to his knowledge with tenacity; he who doubts the truth of his knowledge allows himself to be taught. And thus doubt is also a help from My side, since I recognise every person's will and his desire for truth and guide his thoughts accordingly.... Thus I will inwardly enlighten every person who asks Me for it because I, as the Eternal Truth, only ever aim to guide all people into truth. Yet as long as people are not convinced that the Eternal Truth takes care of their living creations Itself, as long as they do not believe that I Myself Am working in the human being, they will not take the direct path to Me even when in doubt but will try to solve the problem intellectually and cannot come to the right conclusion without My help. And if a person has made himself worthy of My help through loving activity, if I have guided his thoughts correctly, the result of his thinking will not be recognised because people precisely lack faith in My working in the human being, who has shaped himself into love.... thus they doubt anew, they argue again, for different results emerge through intellectual thinking alone and the disputed question remains unresolved. Only the person who has received the answer through My spirit is fully convinced of its truth.... he has found the right answer, which only My spirit could convey to him, which emanates from Me and cannot offer anything other than pure truth, and let this speak to you.

Amen
