8817 God's mercy on the spiritual poverty of the world....

June 22, 1964: Book 93

Where My eye looks there I see the downfall, with exception of the few who believe in Me and whose senses are spiritually directed. But the majority no longer has faith in Me, why also earth life is useless and therefore has to be broken off, what I already saw from eternity and therefore could also determine the end. You men can no longer expect a spiritual ascent, and no matter whether always only few turn towards Me, but measured by the immense number of the rest, it is only a small part of those who stand firm in faith in Me and will pass the last faith struggle. And all who believe in My love, wisdom and omnipotence, who let Me speak to them.... All those whom I can instruct directly or through My messengers will receive strength from Me to endure the final battle. Yet My mercy applies to all others, for no matter what I undertake I will not succeed in persuading people to believe in Me, for people's 'wisdom' is too high, they do not recognize Me and place their worldly wisdom ahead of the believers' knowledge, they do not recognize anything which opposes this worldly wisdom. And My adversary has his accomplices everywhere who try to negate everything that is supplied to them as truth, who guide their intellect such that it will not accept anything that corresponds to truth. Through densest error men go there, but they also do not desire truth, and that is why it also cannot be offered to them.... The earth has stopped to serve its purpose, and that is why it must experience a total upheaval, which ends with the new banishment of men, who oppose Me, who fail in their last earth life test and are so far away from Me that they must again put back the course through material creation. And before that I will still fetch into the kingdom on the other side, who are not yet completely lost to Me, who are certainly weak in faith, who would not get through the last faith struggle. I still prove Myself to them as a benevolent God Who does not demand the last test of them because they would not pass it, but Who nevertheless gives them the opportunity in the beyond to still find Me there in Jesus Christ, Who alone can redeem their guilt of sin.... But to you men, who believe in Me, I will always send deeper revelations to you, because the time becomes more and more difficult, the opponent becomes more and more intrusive, and you truly need proofs of My love and favour; your faith is to be strengthened, and you are to experience unusual things and therefore recognize Me more and more clearly, so that it is easy for you to have a firm faith, which now will also withstand all challenges of the opponent. But whatever will come, you do not need to be afraid because provided with My power also the most difficult will become easy for you, but then you will exchange your earth life for life in paradise of the new earth, which is given to you to stay after the reshaping of the old earth, and you will receive the reward for the loyal holding out in the last faith struggle. But still seek to win; still seek to announce the gospel; still seek to supply Me with all who let themselves be won for Me and My word, because every soul will thank you, which you supply to Me, and every soul will be spared the fate of the new banishment, which is accessible to truth out of Me and then will also be overjoyed to have found the father in Me, who cares about every soul....

Amen
