7993 Passing on prophecies....
September 16, 1961: Book 84
The prophetic gift places an obligation on you: to pass on what the prophet receives through My spirit. They are only ever predictions of a spiritual nature, even if they concern forthcoming world events, yet they are always spiritually founded and only ever predicted so that people will spiritually prepare themselves for them; for it is absurd to make earthly arrangements because they are useless, because (if) My will determines otherwise. But people should know that everything that happens is spiritually based and happens or is allowed to happen for the sake of spiritual maturity.... In addition, people should not be affected by revolutionary events unprepared, they should have time and opportunity to spiritually adjust to them and, above all, think of their salvation.... And they should also try to influence their fellow human beings in the same sense, but they will only do so if they themselves believe in what they have received as spiritual transmission. But you will only recognize a true prophet by the fact that he does not instruct people about the future for the sake of earthly gain but that he proclaims My will completely unselfishly, which is thus revealed to him through spiritual foresight. And what I want to proclaim to people in advance shall only ever shake them up in their thinking, it shall cause them to have the right attitude towards Me and the world.... They shall learn to regard the latter as transient and think of their souls more eagerly, they shall not carelessly abandon themselves to everyday life, they shall seriously think about themselves, always in view of a sudden end which those prophets announce in the last days. This is why My prophets of the last days shall be listened to, because they are My messengers whom I Myself send to people in order to admonish and warn them. And thus every prophet also has the constant instruction to mention My announcements and at the same time to point out the unusual grace of My direct address.... And because it is particularly important in the end times that people learn what lies ahead of them, the prophets should also speak without any inhibition about what is coming.... People will not believe it but they will nevertheless keep thinking about it, and that is the purpose of My predictions, so that they will not be completely unprepared for what is coming and that they will then also believe the final predictions when the first prophecies concerning the forthcoming natural event come true, which you are to mention again and again. A true prophet speaks from My spirit, for he does not seek any advantage for himself.... What he proclaims to people will not make them happy, and therefore he will mostly be rejected and ridiculed.... But I Myself will again and again impel him to speak, that is, My spirit will work in him. He will speak wherever the opportunity presents itself. And this will always be the characteristic of a genuine prophet, that he will not strive for earthly advantages and that he will not make use of earthly aids.... that he will speak, impelled by My spirit. For I Myself will put the words into his mouth when he speaks to his fellow human beings who will lend him an open ear; yet it will be difficult to find a hearing with worldly people, for those who are still too attached to the world find it difficult to speak of an end, it is difficult to find belief in them that the world is transient.... It is difficult to induce them to change their way of life, and therefore they will reject everything and also declare the prophets to be untrustworthy. But it comes about as they proclaim it, for they do not speak of themselves but My spirit gives them what they speak, and this spirit does not err.... And therefore remember that there are indeed true and false prophets but that a true prophet will only ever proclaim to you what serves your soul best.... and that you are at the mercy of false prophets when earthly things which serve your physical well-being are predicted to you, which you may never believe, for the time is fulfilled, and I only ever want to admonish and warn you so that you will not experience what is coming unprepared, so that you seriously remember your souls and seek contact with Me. For this alone will guarantee you protection and help in every adversity.... The bond with Me alone assures you My support, whatever may come upon you....
Amen
