7904 Self-salvation?.... Jesus‘ work of redemption....

May 29, 1961: Book 82

No man can redeem himself, no man can become blessed by his own strength.... Consider that you are powerless when you enter the earth as a human being.... You are indeed given the vitality for your existence as a human being with which you can create and work according to your will. But in order to become blissfully happy you must be in possession of spiritual strength, and this is lacking in you who are still part of My adversary, who dragged you down into the abyss and, due to your past apostasy, rejected My strength of love, thus you became completely powerless. You were bound by My adversary and he did not let you go. Although I had already released you from his bondage when you were.... bound by Me.... through the creations of earth in order to slowly ascend again. But during your human existence he has control over you again insofar as he can influence your will, for you are still his share until you voluntarily approach Me. But for this you need spiritual strength which you do not yet possess. But the purpose of your earthly life is your release from him, the redemption from his control, from the fetters he had placed around you.... And because you therefore don't possess the strength to do so, you cannot redeem yourselves.... You need help, which only one can provide: Jesus Christ, the redeemer of the world.... In Him I Myself came to earth in order to accomplish the act of salvation for you, in order to redeem you from My adversary through My blood.... in order to acquire the strength for you which you need and which will be supplied to you if you acknowledge Me as the divine redeemer, if you want to avail yourselves of the blessings of the act of salvation. again and again I try to make the significance of the act of salvation clear to you; I try to make it understandable to you humans why you have to acknowledge Jesus Christ and His act of salvation and that it is not possible for you to become free from My adversary's power without Him, the divine redeemer.... that it is not possible for you to redeem yourselves.... that you need Me in order to become blissfully happy. You are unable to do so by your own strength, for you first have to acquire it, and therefore you have to muster the serious will to release yourselves from My adversary's power, and this will is weakened by your past apostasy from Me because you lack love.... You rejected the divine strength of love, you are without love yourselves, and love is the strength which would enable you.... Yet as long as you still belong to My adversary he will do everything to prevent you from working with love, and you do not have the strength to resist him.... You have to request strength from Jesus Christ and therefore also acknowledge Him as the one Who alone can redeem you from the enemy's power.... But then your redemption is also certain.... Then you will only ever use your available life force to work in love, you will receive strength and constantly increase it, and you will be able to resist My adversary, you will turn to Me, Whom you recognize and acknowledge in Jesus Christ, and his power is broken from the moment you entrust yourselves to the divine redeemer Jesus Christ, confess your guilt to Him and ask for His forgiveness.... For then you willingly turn to Me again, from Whom you once separated yourselves. And My strength of love can now radiate through you again, you will receive strength and now be active according to My will.... And your spiritual strength will grow, you will mature in your souls, you will strive for perfection on earth, and you will also be able to do so because you have become free from the power which kept you bound until Jesus Christ Himself loosened the chains and you can now live in spiritual freedom again. And then you will have attained true life, which you will not be able to lose again, for through Jesus Christ you have truly been redeemed from sin and death...._>Amen
