8288 Constant attacks by the enemy.... Light bearers.... Reincarnation....

October 1, 1962: Book 87

You should not be frightened when you are attacked by those who use My adversary to invalidate the pure truth which I convey to you from above. You will always be permeated by My strength and be able to resist all his attacks, for you work for Me and on My behalf. My power is truly so strong that I can push everything away from you, that I will not let the work of My love for you humans be endangered. It is certainly true that in the end time people will be offered much as alleged truth and that it will be difficult to find one's way through and to recognize what is right.... Yet it is never impossible because I always assure you of My support if you desire to know the truth. You will ask why I allow all this, why I don't prevent My adversary from exerting his influence on people who apparently also only want the best.... It concerns the human being's free will which My adversary seeks to win over for himself, and I have to grant him the right because his followers once followed him in free will and he has the same right to fight for the souls but the decision solely depends on the human being's will. Thus the adversary seeks to keep people in the darkness into which he had once plunged them.... He seeks to prevent everything that could give them a light in which they could recognize Me Myself and then turn to Me again of their own free will. But light is truth, thus he leaves no stone unturned in order to undermine the truth from Me, and he will always try his hand at the bearers of light, at My messengers, and want to extinguish the light.... And he uses the most shameful means to do so.... Yet he is completely powerless as soon as his activity is opposed by Jesus Christ's act of salvation, as soon as the divine redeemer Jesus Christ Himself is approached for protection from him. Then all his efforts are in vain.... Therefore one thing is necessary: that you know about the great significance of the act of salvation of the man Jesus, in Whose shell the 'eternal love' Himself was concealed. It is necessary to know about My incarnation in Jesus.... about Jesus' becoming one with Me, His God and father from eternity.... then he also knows about God's 'plan of salvation'.... He knows about the connection of everything created with Me, its creator, and he knows about the path of every fallen original spirit through the whole of creation and about the path of return to Me.... And anyone who knows all this also knows the further course of development after his earthly life in the kingdom on the other side and the endless possibilities to help a still unredeemed being that has entered the spiritual kingdom to redeem itself and also to walk the path of higher development.... He also knows that the being can still sink into the abyss and which means I use in order to once again open up the possibility for this repeatedly fallen being to pass the last test of will on earth.... by dissolving and banishing it again in the creations of earth.... To him it is understandable why all this has to be so if My law of eternal order is to be observed.... And whoever therefore stands in this knowledge will also reject all teaching which contradicts this plan of eternity.... which betrays all too human thinking which, influenced by My adversary, corresponds to their own desires.... For countless demons from the spirit world work on his behalf who try to transfer themselves and their thoughts to people who allow such activity in themselves. For you must never forget that it is only ever a matter of invalidating My 'working of love', and My eternal plan of salvation is based on love and designed by My wisdom, and it will be carried out in accordance with My eternal decision because I recognized the path by which the spiritual substance which has become apostate will find its way back to Me. I Myself descended to earth in order to accomplish the act of salvation for this fallen spiritual being, and redemption is assured to every being which recognizes and acknowledges Me in Jesus and asks for forgiveness of its guilt of sin.... And thus it is truly not necessary for people to atone for this guilt through repeated earthly life as a human being, for a thousand earthly lives would not suffice to get rid of the original guilt, for this guilt can only be redeemed through Jesus Christ Himself.... But the sins which the human being additionally commits in earthly life are simultaneously redeemed through His crucifixion.... Yet burdened with the smallest guilt, thus without Jesus Christ's forgiveness, no being, no human soul, can enter the kingdom of light. And for these souls, which thus pass over into the kingdom of the beyond burdened, the darkness in which they dwell is torment enough to cause them to change their will and thinking, to go into themselves and also accept the help of spiritual friends.... And now the soul can also still reach ascent. But to transfer a soul back to earth again in such a state would definitely mean no service for this soul, for it would be in the same darkness and would also not take a different path on earth than it had taken so far, because My adversary has retained the same power over this soul, from which it can never escape itself. The soul can only attain realization through love.... If it only feels a spark of love for its fellow suffering souls in the kingdom of the beyond, it will also inevitably ascend.... But if it remains devoid of all love it belongs to My adversary and he will never release the soul. And if it then goes through an exceedingly hard school of life it will nevertheless never be improved by it or attain anything other than evil thinking, for it first has to be released from the adversary's control, which again can only happen through Jesus Christ.... Only when He Himself enters a person's life is his redemption assured.... for which truly one earthly life can suffice.... And if it is therefore not enough, the human being or his soul alone will also have to answer for this and now also have to take upon himself the fate of darkness, which is so agonising and surpasses even the most difficult earthly walk in torment. In My plan of salvation from eternity all possibilities are foreseen which help a fallen soul to ascend. But My law of order will always be observed, and I truly don't need to resort to means which would remain unused, because even a return to an already overcome state would offer no guarantee for a soul's ascent and therefore can never be My will either, for free will remains untouched and the recollection cannot be given to a soul precisely because of its free will. The man Jesus died on the cross for its weakness, and He acquired for you the blessings of a strengthened will which you can all use during your earthly life and then your redemption is also assured.... You have to atone for your guilt on earth during one earthly life, then you will pass over into the kingdom of the beyond with relief and no longer resist the help of your spiritual friends there either.... which is why you often have to endure a difficult earthly life but through it you can attain a high degree of maturity and increased receptivity to light.... And again I tell you: Individual cases of the re-embodiment of a soul on earth have their special reason but will never take place if the redemption through Jesus Christ has not preceded it. And through this redemption all guilt is redeemed and thus need not be redeemed again in earthly life.... And every earthly life is determined by Me in wisdom and love.... even if you are unable to recognize it.... but I know what serves each individual soul for its perfection....

Amen
