8419 What is meant by "plan of salvation from eternity"?....

February 22, 1963: Book 88

Seek My kingdom and above all seek the truth, because then My kingdom will also come to you.... For only the pure truth shows you the right path which leads into My kingdom, into the kingdom of light, of strength and of bliss. And the pure truth will be conveyed to you according to your degree of maturity, which also determines your receptivity.... Thus the deepest wisdom can be revealed to you if you are able to grasp it as a result of your degree of love or maturity. Yet you will also be delighted by less profound revelations if you are not yet able to grasp everything My love wants to offer you.... But I Myself always share the truth with anyone who seriously desires it, because I do not deny Myself to any of My living creations and.... as Myself the eternal truth.... therefore evaluate your desire as an acknowledgement of Myself, as a desire to also be united with Me.... But you yourselves will always determine the depth of the knowledge flowing to you from Me, and therefore you can also penetrate the deepest secrets if you completely shape yourselves into love, into your original being in which you stood in brightest realization.... You shall also reach this degree again, and then you will also be immeasurably happy, because then nothing will be hidden from you anymore, because then you will also recognize My love, wisdom and might and your love for Me will become ever stronger.... which means immeasurable happiness, both for you as well as for Me, Who desires your love. The knowledge I can already impart to you on earth will always help to kindle your love for Me in you, yet I cannot give you light as long as you are still without love yourselves, for then your spirit is darkened and My rays of light of love cannot break through the darkness against your will.... Knowing your outcome and your goal.... to know about My plan of salvation from eternity, about My being, about My reign and activity, to know about all correlations which concern your being as well as the coming into being of the whole of creation, is already a state of realization, a state where undeniably My ray of love light has hit you.... which has broken through the darkness into which you once plunged yourselves through your resistance against My love.... And even if you derive no earthly benefit from this realization you will nevertheless be happy to know the pure truth, and you will gratefully accept it from My hands and desire to penetrate ever deeper into areas which were previously closed to you. And I will also be able to give you ever deeper explanations which concern My fundamental nature, even though you will never be able to fathom Me.... Yet you will know that My goal is your complete unification with Me, you will know that a constant striving towards Myself also results in constant fulfilment and happiness and that this bliss will never end but that your longing for Me will never cease either.... Concepts which you as a human being cannot grasp as long as you are not yet perfected.... You came forth from Me and are therefore the same in your original substance which I Myself am.... But the 'created' must first shape itself into 'gods' in free will, thus become My children who can create and work with Me in equal power and will.... And this transformation, this 'becoming gods', is the basis of My whole plan of creation, because it requires your own cooperation, your own free will.... This, then, is to be understood by 'plan of salvation from eternity', and the knowledge of it is already a sign that this transformation is almost complete.... Yet it is only very rarely possible for a person on earth to gain access to the most profound knowledge, for body and soul must be spiritualized for this, not the slightest resistance may be offered to My illumination, which, however, a body which is not yet completely spiritualized will always do and thus not allow the complete effect of love. Not many people achieve this complete spiritualization of the body at the same time as its soul, and such a state of maturity also results in its departure from this earth, so that the soul, however, receives brightest light, i.e. deepest knowledge of everything when it enters the spiritual kingdom. on its entry into the spiritual kingdom.... (so that) all correlations are clear to it and, as perfected, it is now also flooded by the divine light of love without restriction and can now itself carry out the most blissful activity as a station of strength: to pass on the light and strength to lightless places on earth and also in the kingdom of the beyond. And these souls of light are then active on My behalf because they can spread the full truth since they possess it themselves.... You humans on earth could already receive much of the knowledge with a right life of love, because you unite with Me through loving activity and thus may also receive light again through this union, for I Myself am the light of eternity, and light is realization, light is truthful knowledge which, however, you lack at the beginning of your earthly existence, thus you enter earth in complete darkness but can leave it again in brightest light. Yet you cannot accept true light from people unless it originated from Me and is imparted to you by people. But it is bad for your soul if it feels comfortable in darkness and does not desire true light. Then it will also take the darkness into the kingdom of the beyond, and it can take eternities until a light will shine for it, because even then its will is decisive as to whether it will follow the sparks of light which, through My grace, will also light up again and again, because I will not leave any being in darkness forever.... On earth, however, it can easily enter the circle of light, because time and again I send messengers to every human being who are to give them a light on My behalf, yet it will always depend on the human being's will itself as to how he attunes himself to the light, to My ray of love, for no human being is forced to enter the circle of light but he must want to escape the darkness himself....

Amen
