7281 Spiritual helpers respect free will....

February 12, 1959: Book 77

Every soul shall be saved, and spiritual friends join every soul in order to bring it to maturity during earthly life with their support. Thus every soul has support as soon as it desires it, but it cannot be influenced against its will to subordinate itself to its spiritual friends in order to safely reach perfection. It must declare its willingness to be guided by these friends and to accept admonitions and warnings for its salvation. If it does not do this, then the spiritual helpers are also powerless towards it, they must withdraw because a person's free will may not be touched. But it is well advised to listen to the voice of its spiritual friends, and it does so when it is mentally warned of this or that or when it is mentally urged to do or refrain from doing this or that and now gives in to this inner urging or resistance, always in the will to think or act right. This will is decisive as to whether the beings can intervene, for their activity is only ever mental influence which is only successful if the will is good. If the will is fickle, that the soul itself is not clear how it should decide, then other spiritual beings will also try to intervene, and then the human being will be harassed by different, opposing thoughts, because both his spiritual friends as well as the opponents want to win the will and do everything to be able to register success. The human being is never left to himself, he constantly has faithful helpers at his side whom he only needs to give permission to assist him. Then he can also safely rely on the fact that he will be well guided and advised and that he will also receive strength to live on earth according to God's will. For his guardians will not leave him, they will constantly influence him in a good sense and also push away the opposing forces if possible, because they have the right to do so through the conscious call from people. This certainty of having faithful helpers at your side should make you confident that your earthly change will be successful, for these helpers are capable of much, and once they are allowed to take over the office of looking after you then they will also not let up in supporting you with advice and deeds and helping your soul to maturity. But this will only ever be possible if your will is good, which means that it freely turns towards God. Then the spiritual helpers have every right to exert their influence on you, for God Himself has given them this office of care and they carry it out joyfully and gladly in His will. Then it is also easily possible to achieve perfection on earth, for the spiritual friends' efforts are only aimed at spurring people into loving activity and to subordinate themselves to divine will in everything, because then the return to God is also guaranteed if the human being serves with love.... which is solely God's will.... And thoughts will therefore constantly be directed such that the human being can literally call himself a 'christian'.... for he will live in love, therefore recognize and acknowledge Jesus Christ and His act of salvation and thus also be redeemed from sin and death.... he will take the path to the father because there is no longer any resistance in him, because the child longs to return to the father's house, because it wants to return home to the one from Whom it once took its origin....

Amen
