ANNOUNCING THE FORERUNNER OF JESUS CHRIST

None of you people would be walking in Truth if this were not time and time again proclaimed to you through My spirit. The pure truth preached to men during My life on earth did not remain pure, for as soon as human design began to use My doctrine for the aims of whole nations, everything was intermingled with human supplements. - My pure doctrine did not sufficiently comply with men's selfishness, and so the different communities sought to shape this doctrine more or less to suit their own purposes.

Thus, the church, which I Myself once established, the so-called 'first church', soon became a caricature of what it had originally been. And My pure doctrine had to undergo countless changes, and that which exists today can no longer claim to be the pure truth.

In order to maintain the truth, pure, clean vessels are needed, into which My spirit can keep flowing. The Divine Spirit must be able to keep flowing, and the doctrine, I have given to men must be preached by such men who are 'filled with the spirit', otherwise the Words could already undergo changes in the mouth of the preacher and present a different meaning.

It must always be taken into consideration that something pure and divine will lose its purity in ungodly surroundings because I do not force the will of men. What the individual makes of the truth conveyed to him, is up to him. - And My holy Word was perverted already during My life on earth, if it suited people for their ends.

I can keep conveying My pure Word to the earth through My spirit, but I will not deprive men of their freedom by forcing the Truth upon them. But while people put themselves at My disposal to be prepared as vessels for My Spirit, it is always possible to correct existing errors, to answer any question that needs clarification and convey to men a pure light that originates from Me - the Primal Light from Eternity. But people hold on with tenacity to the spoilt doctrines at the bottom of which is My adversary who will always fight against the Light of Truth. And thus an almost impenetrable night has spread over mankind, for error and falsehood are equal to darkness. And it is made extremely difficult for My light-bearers to penetrate this darkness, since men are already so deluded that they can no longer recognize a true light.

Therefore, a mighty light will begin to shine, and this light will testify to Me and My coming in the clouds. It will tell of the judgment and of the removal of My own on the day of judgment. A radiantly bright light will be rising and again preach My pure Word - a voice in the 'spiritual wilderness' will appear and endeavor to awaken men from their sleep of the dead.

He will come to the aid of those who testify to Me and My work on their behalf, He will speak mightily and not spare those who are dishonest; he will not fear the mighty, but tear the mask from their face, expose them and reveal their true intentions.
He will fight with the sword of the tongue, for the high and the low will bear him ill will, since no one wants to hear the pure truth which, however, does not deviate from the doctrine I once preached on earth. This will be My messenger through whose mouth I will speak Myself and who will fulfill his last mission on this earth: once more to announce Me and My coming, as it is written.

When this light begins to shine, you will know that My coming is near and so is the judgment. And then extraordinary things will happen also through him, but this will no longer be detrimental to men's freedom of will, for he will not find much belief, and only the awakened will recognize him and his mission. However, he will give unusual strength to the weak, for his ward is forceful.

Then the last phase of this earth will have come, for this proclaimer will at the same time be the most fervent opponent to the one whom men will be choosing for their worldly ruler and in whom My adversary will incarnate himself to perform this last infamous work against Me. For then the religious conflict will commence, but My own will find great support in that light which I Myself will be sending to the earth.

They will receive much strength to stand firm in the time of greatest distress, which precedes My coming to the earth. For I do not leave you, My faithful ones, without help. And that you may remain steadfast, I am announcing to you this light, this 'voice', and besides, you will know that I will soon be coming to fetch you, to make an end to the activity of My adversary, to help truth to its final victory.

AMEN
