5356 Incarnation and redemptive work of Jesus....

April 8, 1952: Book 59

I came into the world to redeem people and to open the gate to eternity for them. I came as a human being as God's emissary and yet was God Himself in this human being; I gave a soul, a child of Mine, an external form in order to then indissolubly unite Myself with this soul and thus take abode as God in this external form. Yet only a few people recognized Who sheltered in this form; only a few people likewise established the connection with Me in their heart and were thereby also able to recognize Me in the human being Jesus, for love gave these few the light, love recognized eternal love and worshipped it.

And so also I died on the cross.... The human shell had to suffer death with all pain and agony. But eternal love made the sacrifice in this human being Jesus, eternal love took all torment and suffering upon itself, otherwise the sacrifice would not have been made voluntarily.... Love died for people on the cross, and thus it was I Myself Who suffered for you for the sake of the overwhelming guilt of sin which I wanted to redeem. I, as God, could have deleted this guilt, erased it from the book of retribution; I could have redeemed the guilt out of immense mercy; yet My perfection prevented Me from doing so, for justice is also part of My nature and this relentlessly demanded atonement for people's guilt of sin. All of you would have had to suffer unimaginably in order to pay off this great guilt and would never have been able to endure on earth what would have cleansed you from guilt. And therefore a soul of light, an angelic spirit called into existence by Me, offered Itself as a human being to atone for the great guilt and to make amends to Me. And He accomplished the work.... He accepted Me into His heart and thus drew on the strength of love to offer the greatest sacrifice of atonement a human being was ever capable of on earth. He was My son.... I His father.... But through love the complete fusion took place, He and I, we became one, for love filled Him such that everything spiritualized itself, that body, soul and spirit became one and could indissolubly unite with the father-spirit of eternity. As long as you humans cannot fathom love in its essence, God's incarnation will also appear incomprehensible to you, and only those who let love flare up into a bright flame will be able to solve this problem. Only this person can understand that eternal love manifested itself in a human being and thus enabled Him to sacrifice His life for people's sins in dreadful agony, for love gave Him strength, love was Me Myself.... I Myself descended to earth and saved humanity from deepest adversity.... Love redeemed the guilt of sin, but the human being Jesus made the atonement because eternal love could not suffer but help was to be brought to humanity and this help could only be provided by a human being who was full of love....

Amen
