4625 Right knowledge awakens faith and love for God....

April 29, 1949: Book 53

Penetrate spiritual knowledge and you will not lack evidence of My might and glory and My love. As soon as this knowledge is made accessible to you, every connection will become clear to you and everything will appear to you to be well-founded; you will recognize that a being looks after you, My living creations, and is active for you, and this in unsurpassable wisdom. And you will learn to love Me and strive towards Me. The darkness of spirit, the complete ignorance of spiritual things also has an effect in an impersonal relationship with Me, mostly in complete unbelief and total rejection. Only knowledge awakens faith and love, even if knowledge remains unproven, yet the idea that it could be as spiritually knowledgeable people portray it awakens in the human being the desire to enter into an intimate relationship with the being, Who thus shall preside in perfection over the whole of creation with all beings. Spiritual knowledge must be presented to the human being if love for Me is to be ignited and become a bright flame. Spiritual knowledge indeed first emerges from love for Me, yet if it is first conveyed to the intellect from outside it can then also penetrate the heart, thus determine the human being's thinking and will, and then the light will shine brighter for him and also warm him from within, only then will it become a true light which can no longer be extinguished; then the intellect is, as it were, the stimulus for an act of feeling, for the transformation of the inner human being into love.... a love which at first is meant for the unknown controller of infinity, but which slowly also extends to everything created. And this flame of love illuminates the spirit, and this now gives man enlightenment in all spiritual questions. The thus knowledgeable human being will no longer want to lose or discard his knowledge, for it satisfies him and spurs him on to spiritual debates. But the person who has become knowledgeable will also no longer lose his love for Me as the creator and sustainer of eternity and thus also establish the right relationship with Me, he will want to remain united with Me and strive towards Me, and his whole being will demonstrate the change towards love, for true knowledge leads to love and thus to beatitude....

Amen
