5614 Spiritual good.... lightning fast knowledge.... assistance....
March 7, 1953: Book 62
The spiritual knowledge of the individual human being characterizes his maturity. However, the degree of maturity need not be determined on earth, but in the kingdom of the beyond it is recognizable by the garment of light with which the human being enters the spheres where he can utilize his spiritual knowledge. For then he will possess in abundance if his soul has matured through loving activity on earth. Then knowledge can be imparted to him in a flash if he did not already possess it on earth. For there are people who walk along on earth simple-mindedly and quietly with a heart full of love and yet know little.... Their thinking is indeed right and will also always correspond to the truth, yet they lack the knowledge of deeper spiritual truths, but it will reach them in a flash after their demise in order to now make them infinitely happy and stimulate them into eager activity in the beyond. Anyone who is already allowed to receive this knowledge on earth has also reached a certain degree of maturity but also has a mission to fulfil.... to work on earth in an enlightening way and to utilize his knowledge, to work with it for the kingdom of God, thus to carry out redemptive work, as it were, which can also extend to the kingdom of the beyond. For that knowledge comes from the spiritual kingdom and also only touches spiritual problems, and therefore it should also be used again to prepare the soul for the spiritual kingdom.
It is therefore a kingdom work of God, it is not a work to gain earthly advantages by it.... For the world switches off where spiritual work is to be done....
(7.3.1953) Therefore, this work can only be done by the human being who has overcome the world, who strives forward towards the kingdom, which is his aim and his destiny, who therefore consciously strives towards God. The human being can also acquire spiritual goods unconsciously if he lives in love and thereby gathers treasures which will only have meaning for him in the spiritual kingdom, that he then, as it were, reaps what he has sown on earth through his activity of love. But in order to work for the kingdom of God the human being has to consciously be in contact with God, he has to establish the connection through his activity of love, but he also has to know his own task in life and try to pass this knowledge on to his fellow human beings out of love for God and his fellow human beings. And this conscious kingdom work is very beneficial, both for the human being himself as well as for his fellow human beings whose will to love is too weak to decide to work on their souls themselves. They need help, they need people through whom they are stimulated into the most important work on earth, and anyone who offers himself to God for this assistance will also receive the strength and ability from God to be able to carry out such work, he will first receive himself what he should and will pass on to his fellow human beings.... He will be led to the realization of truth in order to now also be able to spread truth. For anyone who wants to provide this help lives in love and is therefore also suitable to be instructed by God's spirit; then he will have reached a degree of maturity which allows for the working of the divine spirit, and he can now also be active according to God's will for the benefit of his fellow human beings.... He will be a true servant in the vineyard of the lord who is tirelessly active and faithfully serves God....
Amen
