7864 Redemption of guilt through death on the cross....

April 3, 1961: Book 82

From the night of death you came to life through My death on the cross. Darkness was your fate and would have remained so if I had not taken pity on you and opened the gate into the kingdom of light for you again by redeeming your guilt of sin Myself, by shedding My blood for you, by paying the purchase price for your souls to the adversary who had held you captive for eternities until I Myself redeemed your guilt on the cross. Now he had to release you, he could no longer keep you in bondage if you are willing to release yourselves from him, if you take refuge in Me, Who accomplished the act of salvation for you.... Your guilt of sin of the past apostasy from Me was immeasurably great, and thus the work of atonement also had to be unusual.... And a soul of light, an original spirit that came forth from Me, offered itself for you.... His fallen brothers.... to make atonement for you in order to lead you back to Me Myself again, in order to clear the path into the kingdom of light for you again, which otherwise would have remained eternally blocked for you. This soul of light descended to earth, it took on a human shell, it lived a life of love as a human being and thereby prepared itself to become a vessel in which I Myself could now take shelter.... And I took abode in this human being Jesus and accomplished the work of salvation in Him.... The man Jesus took immense suffering upon Himself, for He wanted to atone for all of humanity's guilt of sin through His path of suffering, which ended with the most bitter death on the cross.... He wanted to make satisfaction for My righteousness because He knew that no being could stay close to Me which was still burdened by sin. And I accepted His sacrifice because love brought it.... For love was in Him, and love was I Myself.... This act of becoming human in Jesus will always remain a mystery for you humans, for only when you have fathomed the 'essence of love' will you also be able to understand this act of love of My becoming human.... For I Myself, as 'God', could not suffer, the atonement had to be made by a 'human being' who was capable of suffering and also willing to suffer, for I could not determine a human being to make such a sacrifice for his fellow human beings.... But Jesus, the human being, was full of love, and this love determined Him to freely offer Himself as a sacrifice of atonement to the father, Whom He loved with all the ardour of His soul. Thus He accepted Me completely into His heart, for every thought, every breath, was meant for Me, from Whom He had come forth.... But he who abides in love abides in Me and I in him.... thus it was I Who completely filled the man Jesus and Who therefore also offered the sacrifice, Who accomplished the act of salvation for all people of the present, the past and the future. The man Jesus took immense suffering upon Himself in order to atone for the great guilt, and I was satisfied with this act of love and redeemed the great guilt, and the path to the kingdom of light was cleared, the bridge from the kingdom of darkness to the height was built, which can now be entered by every person who wants to ascend from the abyss.... And I conquered death, which he had brought into the world who first apostatized from Me.... I have risen from the dead, I have conquered death and acquired life for every human being who only acknowledges Me as redeemer of the world, who consciously avails himself of the graces of the work of salvation, who bears his sins under the cross and asks for forgiveness of his guilt.... I have risen from the dead to give you humans the evidence that you, too, will rise to eternal life if only you believe in Me, if only you let yourselves be redeemed by Me. Then there will be no more death for you, then you will be free from all guilt because I Myself have redeemed it as the man Jesus...., then the kingdom of light with all its glory will be open to you...., then you will truly have emerged from the night of death into the light of life, and then you will also never lose this life again, for you have now received it from My hand, Who has loved you from the beginning and will love you for all eternity...._>Amen
