CLARIFICATION OF RE-INCARNATION

To accept a return to Earth in order to do penance for the guilt of sin is absolutely wrong. The Law of Divine justice demands a propitiation for all guilt. I truly have many possibilities for this so that all guilt will once be reconciled and the soul again can be received into the Kingdom of Light, which would otherwise be closed for it because of its sinful state.

The beyond into which the soul enters after physical death will be according to the grade of maturity of the soul. It can be in the brightest Light or in deep darkness, consequently its destiny can be pain or great blessing.

Both, the misery and the grandeur are indescribable and cannot be portrayed to you. The torment of unsaved souls can be an exceedingly painful lot. Thus the soul often suffers beyond imagination for its guilt and thus does much penance for it. This painful condition may last for an extremely long time, if it does not accept the advice of its spiritual leaders who want to help it out of its misery. The soul cannot enter the realm of Light until it has done penitence for its sin done on this earth.

But because the original guilt of the apostasy from GOD is much greater, this guilt can never be eradicated by the soul itself. Thus the soul must, on Earth or in the beyond under all circumstances, find its way to JESUS CHRIST. For HE alone can set it free from this sin, for which HE died on the Cross.

Without JESUS CHRIST the soul will never be free of its guilt, even if it suffers for ages in the darkness of the beyond. It has to call upon JESUS CHRIST for mercy for forgiveness of its guilt.

Its spiritual helpers will always point it to seek salvation by HIM Who gave HIS life for this guilt.

When the soul surrenders to HIM, the original sin as well as the sin it has committed on Earth, is eradicated. Then it will be free from all guilt and through the blood of JESUS be taken into the realm of Light and Happiness. However, if the soul is so stubborn that it will not turn to HIM in spite of all efforts of the Light-beings to help, it will then sink deeper. Its misery is indescribable, and if it cannot lift itself upward out of hell, which can be possible with the help of Light-beings, this soul has to go again the long path through the works of creation until it reaches its last goal.

Still, this return to Earth is not the re- incarnation of the soul as you assume, it is not desirable either, because it is again an endlessly long state of misery for a soul, dissolved into its particles until it reaches its state as man.

It must be said again and again: you will never become free of guilt without JESUS CHRIST. That is why the work of redemption is so important, because HE alone is the door to the realm of Light. Even if you would in the beyond, through great misery, atone for your sin accumulated on Earth, you could still not enter the realm of Light without redemption from your original sin by JESUS CHRIST.

A repeated life on Earth would be of no use because it would add sin anew. You must first find JESUS. But you can also find HIM in the beyond, which makes it un- necessary to return to Earth again.

Again and again I bring this erroneous doctrine to your attention. With such belief you depreciate the work of redemption of JESUS CHRIST because you make your fellowmen believe that they can pay for their own guilt and neglect redemption through JESUS CHRIST, without Whom you can never be set free from the original sin. The greatest misery on Earth or in the beyond cannot atone for that guilt.

Be convinced, it is of utmost importance that you go the path of the Cross. Do not be misled by the wrong hopes by which you will lengthen your unsaved condition and suffer for an endlessly long time in the darkness.

For HE alone is the Light, which came down to Earth, which brought you deliverance from sin and death. But you must ask HIM for forgiveness for your guilt in free will. Do not expect a return to this Earth to atone for your guilt. Through such belief you prolong your state of darkness and misery.

Without JESUS CHRIST and HIS work of redemption you will never come to the Light, to Freedom or Blessedness. Without JESUS CHRIST you cannot be set free from your guilt.

AMEN
