5577 God's spirit in the man Jesus.... following....

January 14, 1953: Book 61

You humans can be full of the divine spirit if you live as followers of Jesus. As a human being He was no different from you, His life was only a struggle and fight against the desires which He felt like you but wanted to suppress out of love for Me. His life was a life of love for His neighbour, whom He knew was in need and wanted to help. What He achieved you humans could also achieve if you were serious about receiving Me Myself in all fullness. His soul was indeed from the kingdom of light but it did not recognize itself as such until the man Jesus was permeated by My spirit of love. At times My spirit did speak from Him, then the man Jesus spoke with supernatural wisdom and astonished his fellow human beings.... Yet as soon as My spirit hid itself again Jesus felt just as human as they did and His occasionally brighter spiritual state confused and frightened Him; He was closed but turned towards Me with ever more intimate love which then also gave Him the light about His earthly task.... The man Jesus had to wrestle with all powers which were against Him, He had to experience and suffer everything only a human being can suffer, for He preceded you humans on the path which you should and can also take with His help. I helped Him Myself with My strength of love, which He constantly requested and acquired through His life of love. And this unusual supply of strength of love enabled Him to accomplish the work of salvation.... You humans, too, could accomplish unusual things if you wanted to acquire My strength of love yourselves through loving activity; yet you lack the will which, however, was overdeveloped in the man Jesus, yet again only as a result of the love He developed within Himself. As a soul of light His soul felt the great spiritual hardship of the environment, and therefore its will to help was so strong and inspired the man Jesus to work in love.... You humans also see spiritual and earthly hardship around you, and if you wanted to help, you would also receive the strength.... because the will is taken into account.... And you, too, could be full of the divine spirit, because every work of love could result in My strength of love and thus My spirit could become effective in you. The following of Jesus would truly not be demanded of you humans if it could not be fulfilled. For again and again it has to be emphasized that Jesus walked His path on earth as a human being and that all divine attributes were His humanly acquired merits, that the deity did not determine His path of life but that the human being subjugated the deity to Himself.... well understood: that the love of Jesus, the human being, moved Me to the unlimited expression of love, because I am powerless against love, because I Myself am love from eternity.... The man Jesus has conquered Me Myself with Me, He has done what I Myself had to do.... what My fundamental nature demands.... to let the power of love take effect.... And every human being who works in love forces Me into self-emptying.... Yet this compulsion is the most pleasing feeling for Me, Who always wants to give Myself away but can only give Myself away according to My law of eternity where love meets Me. Love must unite the being with Me, then it is filled by My spirit, by My strength of love, and then it can work in and with Me, then the human being has taken the path of following Jesus which leads to unification with Me....

Amen
