7945 Let the light of truth illuminate the way....
July 19, 1961: Book 83
I will introduce you to the truth, as I have promised you.... For truth alone is the light you need on earth which shall illuminate the path that leads to Me, back to your father's house. Without truth you walk in dense darkness which My adversary has spread over you because he wants to prevent you from finding the path to Me and because he wants to prevent the desire for Me from awakening in you at all. Therefore he also tries to distort Me and My nature; he portrays Me to you humans in a completely wrong way, he gives you a distorted image of Me, he wants to prevent you from recognizing Me and loving Me.... he portrays Me as a being who is imperfect.... as a God of vengeance and wrath, as a harsh and severe judge.... as a being which lacks all love, otherwise He would not teach of eternal damnation and thereby only awaken fear and anxiety in people, which excludes all love for Me. But only love can bring about your return to Me. Love for Me must cause you to strive towards Me and thus to fulfil My will, which again is only a life of love.... Love is therefore the fundamental principle of My eternal order.... And you must be instructed in truth in order to gain a correct concept of the nature of your God and creator, Who wants to be your father and therefore courts your love. Only the truth gives you a clear picture of Me and My nature, and therefore I convey the truth to you, because then it will become light in you and you will recognize Me correctly.... For both I and he fight for your souls.... And that is why he wants to keep you in spiritual darkness, because the light reveals Me Myself as well as his nature and then the souls will be lost to him who recognize and learn to love Me in the light of truth and then also strive towards Me of their own free will. When I lived on earth I was well aware of the lightless state humanity is in as long as it is not introduced to the truth by Me. And therefore I gave you the promise that I Myself will remain with you until the end of the world.... that I will send you the comforter, the spirit of truth.... But you must always declare your willingness yourselves, you must desire the light so that it may shine and illuminate the path which leads to Me. Then you will truly no longer need to fear darkness nor the prince of darkness, for he himself will flee the light which radiates from Me.... and he will always try to extinguish it but to no avail, because.... where the light from Me can once shine.... My guardians also stand and protect it from his influence. And thus it is only up to you humans yourselves whether you want to escape the darkness.... I will always kindle a light for you which breaks through the darkness as soon as you only desire light. Thus I will always convey the truth to you from Me, I will instruct you through the spirit as I did on earth, and if you accept My instructions and live your life in accordance with My will then you will also become enlightened yourselves and recognize Me, your God and father of eternity, you will love Me and strive towards Me, and then I will take hold of you and truly no longer let you fall back into darkness, then you will clearly see the path in front of you which you have to take in order to reach Me, and then you will consciously travel your earthly path with the aim of reaching the height where I Myself await you, Who longs for your return and therefore will always radiate bright light.... And the truth will make you happy which will reveal everything to you: your former destiny and nature and your aim to be again what you were in the beginning....
Amen
