7384 Rationale for addressing God....

August 2, 1959: Book 78

You are all called to beatitude.... but you have free will, and the fate which awaits you in the kingdom of the beyond when you have ended your earthly life is the same as this will. You have free will.... Bear in mind that you also bear the sign of divinity, for divinity is inconceivable without free will. But the divine can have deformed itself, it can have entered into a completely anti-divine being precisely through this free will. And this is your state while you were living on earth.... you had discarded the divine and had entered the state of your own free will which had to be called anti-divine because it completely contradicted My nature which was also your original nature, because everything divine was turned into the opposite and thus you became beings which cannot dwell close to Me but are far away from Me. But this distance is not bliss, it only brings the being unhappiness, weakness and a state of darkness, i.e. complete lack of realization, which is a state of torment for the being. And it shall change this state while it walks the earth embodied as a human being.... It shall change again into the state of perfection, of divinity, into the state where it is blissfully happy in light and strength and freedom.... For this purpose earthly life has been given to you humans, and you are always led through life in such a way that you can only work on your transformation, that you are given every opportunity to return to the old state, to divinise your being and to take on your original nature again, in which you were once immeasurably happy.... But you can by no means be forced into this change back, you have to accomplish it of your own free will, you have to voluntarily make use of all opportunities which help you to achieve perfection. Therefore your free will can only ever be influenced by presenting you with all pros and cons but the decision must nevertheless be left up to you, otherwise you would never find your way back to divinity, which is your aim during your earthly existence. But how else shall I influence you and touch your hearts than by addressing you in My fatherly love and presenting Myself to you as the father Who is concerned about you and your salvation?.... How else could I win you over for Myself than through My address, which shall prove My profound love for you and proclaim My concern for you again and again?.... I only have to and can speak to you and urgently admonish you to listen to My words and accept them, I can only ever make Myself known to you through My address, yet you must also be willing to listen to Me or My voice will be drowned out by the voice of the world, thus you will not be able to hear it. And again and again I try to penetrate and drown out the voice of the world, for I want you to attain beatitude.... I don't want your earthly progress to be in vain, for it is the conclusion of an infinitely long period where you were far more wretched than you are now on earth.... Yet you would have to fear this wretchedness in bondage again if you were to fail during your earthly life.... For this reason I speak to you with great urgency and will persecute you again and again with My word if you don't listen to Me and walk indifferently without being aware of the purpose which your existence nevertheless has to have. I don't want you to get lost, I want your earthly life to bring you final redemption from the form, and you can achieve this yourselves if only your will is good, if you consciously subordinate your will to Mine, if you believe in Me and turn to Me of your own free will, as you once turned away from Me.... Then you will also hear My address, you will feel that and when you are addressed by Me, and you will pay attention to My word.... and then also inevitably reach the state which will lead you closer to Me again.... you will accomplish your return to Me of your own free will, and I will be able to prepare a life of bliss for you which will last forever....

Amen
