ABILITIES - COMMISSION AND REGRESSION - THE NEW EARTH
Man is the highest developed being on Earth, consequently
he is given a task in keeping with his maturity. He can fulfill his commission
in free will. It is this free will, which is put to the test. So man must
make decisions, and his decisions will govern whether or not he fulfills
this commission and uses his ability to live his last embodiment according
to its purpose.
He is in no war forced. In his earthly life he has innumerable tasks to
fulfill. His commission is not particularly pointed out to him, but he
must fulfill it amidst his many earthly activities. If he neglects this
task he will still live his earthly life, but his soul remains undeveloped.
For this he must give account to GOD because his earthly life is given
to him for the perfecting of his soul. If he uses his earthly activities
only for his own advantage, pays no attention to its importance, thus
disregarding the Grace of GOD, he will have misused his earthly life.
The Earth was his residence and he as a highly matured being, already
in an advanced state of development, having many capabilities, was allowed
to incarnate. But he lives his life no more conscious of his purposes
than the people of prehistoric time, using his intellect, free will and
strength given by GOD, only for his activities on Earth, which have no
permanent value. He uses his intellect and free will only to increase
his own well-being and this is in such a way that he influences his fellowman
to do the same. So, the Earth becomes unsuitable for the higher development
of his soul. Indeed, worldliness prevails and binds people to such an
extent that they completely forget their soul.
The world then is in a condition where a change is necessary so that mankind
can again learn about their true commission and live accordingly. It is
essential that the Earth experience another change. It must again become
what it once was and is intended to be. A place for the education of the
spirit where earthly things do not predominate, but are only a means to
an end. The Earth must arise and be formed anew. People, who consciously
strive for maturity, who use all their abilities, which they have received
from GOD for the maturing of their souls, realizing that this is the true
purpose of their incarnation on Earth, must inhabit it.
