3807 Deepest knowledge is accessible through love....
June 21, 1946: Book 48
All areas will be opened up to you if you strive to explore them on the path of love. Then there will be no limits of knowledge for you, for these are only set for the human being's intellect but not for the heart, which can receive the widest knowledge from the spirit within itself without restriction. For this is the sign of perfection, that it is unlimited.... Therefore, if the spirit from God is active in you, His working must also be unlimited as soon as you yourselves have removed the obstacles which make His working impossible. And nothing is foreign to the spirit of God, He controls all areas, and thus the human being penetrates the deepest knowledge through his spirit as soon as he has shaped himself through love into a receptacle for the divine spirit. God is most intimately united with His living creations if they do not resist Him, and thus His strength and His light must also illuminate what dwells in His proximity. And that means brightest insight into the ruling and working of God, knowledge of the plan of salvation, of the meaning and purpose of earthly life and the destiny of God's creations. And once the human being is informed of this by the divine spirit every other connection will also be clear to him, his knowledge will expand in every direction, there will be no more darkness, no more ignorance for him, and he will become free through his will from the bondage of the one who is responsible for all darkness of spirit. But only when the human being has received the knowledge of the spirit within himself can he lay claim to being knowledgeable in truth.... Although a person can also acquire worldly knowledge through study or external input, this knowledge is irrelevant for eternity because it disappears at the moment of death and does not follow the soul into the spiritual realm. Only spiritual knowledge is valuable, which has little to do with earthly things but concerns the spiritual world and is therefore everlasting. And this knowledge can only be attained through love if it is to correspond to the truth and promote the soul's upward development. And in order to acquire this knowledge the human being lives on earth, for the possession of knowledge is the result of a right way of life, which consists of a life of love. God's love constantly tries to impart a wealth of knowledge to people by instructing them Himself through His true servants on earth. And His Word will always preach as the first act of love, it will point people towards the path of love so that the human being will then also attain wisdom from God.... For being instructed in the truth is the most precious thing for people as long as they live on earth. For then they will also recognize their destiny, they will recognize God's immense love and try to conform to it. Yet only pure truth brings about the state of realisation and therefore only pure truth leads to God, Who is Truth Himself. Truth, Love and God are one.... Where love is, God Himself will act as Teacher and introduce people to the truth.... Where truth is, God is recognized as Eternal Love and union with Him is sought, and the striving for Him leads to perfection, which is the goal of every being which emerged from God in all perfection and became imperfect through its own will.... Therefore, awaken the spirit within you through love and you will be able to penetrate the deepest depths of divine wisdom, as God has promised you....
Amen
