7273 Receiving the truth through the spirit....

February 3, 1959: Book 77

And when My spirit descends upon you much knowledge will be made accessible to you, knowledge which no human being's intellect could ever fathom without My spirit working in him. For this I choose the appropriate vessels for Myself into which My spirit can flow, for 'spiritual things' can only be received spiritually, i.e. what is conveyed to you humans from Me can only be received by the spirit within you which is in contact with Me because it is part of Myself, thus My share.... The intellect remains untouched by the spiritual influx until it also submits itself to this spirit. But before that it would not have the ability to grasp spiritual things, which is why it is also very difficult to win over researchers of intellect to first awaken the spirit in themselves to life if they want to penetrate spiritual knowledge. They cannot grasp this condition because they only seek to clarify everything with the intellect. But the intellect must be addressed by the spirit, then it will be able to record most marvellous results. And every person could manage to be addressed by My spirit within himself, yet this requires a life of love which not everyone is willing to lead. A loveless person denies the spirit within himself every expression, whereas a loving person gives him the opportunity to express himself, which is also extensively used by My spirit. Love determines the human being's intimate bond with Me, Who is in him with every work of love.... And love then also gives life to the faith in Me that I will give to the human being what he lacks: the light of realization, the knowledge, which is wisdom and cannot be gained in any other way than this way of expression through the spirit. It simply requires the will to receive the light, the knowledge, from the highest source.... And this will will cause the human being to turn to this source and open himself in order to let the divine flow of love flow into him.... But the will is free and therefore cannot be forcibly directed towards Me in any way, which is why faith is necessary beforehand, so that the human being can make contact with Me through the spirit within himself in order to request what he lacks. Every person can tap into this source, everyone can draw from it in abundance.... But anyone who does not decide to seek out the source, who does not bow down in order to drink from the spring of life, can never be approached by the spirit within himself either, he will always remain outside the well, he will do nothing in order to procure light and strength for himself, and he will also never be able to experience the truth about spiritual correlations because he does not take the spiritual path which alone makes the truth accessible to him. Not for a second will I sever the bond with you, My living creations, but only when you also want it, when you consciously seek the bond with Me, will the contact be established, because it was you who once turned away from Me.... even if a complete separation was impossible. Yet your will was the decisive factor, and this will now has to make the decision again, it has to turn fully towards Me again in order to receive My ray of love, which previously could not touch it, so that it becomes aware of it. But love is a prerequisite for this again, for the human being's will only turns towards Me when this love has been kindled in him.... But then it also means that the human being grants the spiritual spark within himself the right to flare up and illuminate the human being's inner being, or also: My spirit now pours into the open vessel and bestows truly delicious gifts upon you.... My spirit guides you into truth, into the recognition of your being, your earthly task and your goal.... And you will become knowledgeable of what you will never be able to achieve through intellect alone....

Amen
