TRUTH EMANATES FROM GOD HIMSELF

Long for the truth and truly this spiritual request of yours will be fulfilled. But do not search for this truth in books, which have human intellect as a basis, pure intellectual thinking conveying assumptions that cannot be proved.

For if you believe that men are capable of fathoming truth by themselves, you are mistaken, because pure truth has its origin in Me Who is Myself alone Eternal Truth!

Therefore, I say to you: ask Me for truth in all earnestness, and you shall receive it.

I want you to understand that the truth for which you should ask Me is of a spiritual nature. It is the knowledge that reaches into spiritual spheres and can never be substantiated with proofs!

It is the knowledge about your existence, its motivation and purpose. It is the knowledge about the power that brought everything into existence and the connection between you men and this power. It is the knowledge about the nature and the working of that power which has created everything that exists.

No one can explain these things truthfully with his intellect. Such an explanation can only be supplied by Eternal Truth Itself, and it is there that you must apply. It is I Who can give you an answer and will also do so. For I am the supreme power and also the love that wants to make you, My created beings, happy with this knowledge.

However, I can reveal Myself only to those who are earnestly searching for truth, and they shall not ask Me for it in vain. Only a few people desire this seriously, most are indifferent or accept without misgivings what is submitted to them by their fellow-men who let their intellect work, but cannot give any guarantee that their intellectual thinking is going in the right direction.

Not many bother about the basic questions concerning their existence, and their faith in a God of love, wisdom and might is not strong enough to ask Him for enlightenment.

The pure truth, however, can emanate only from Me, and their wrong attitude towards Me, their God and Creator, is the reason why men walk in error and do not make use of their life on earth which could lead them to perfection.

Their indifference concerning the truth only proves the great immaturity of human souls which are still dominated by My adversary who tries to prevent all that by which men could receive light, for he does not want to lose them and can dominate them only as long as their spirit is in darkness and far from the truth.

Truth alone leads men to perfection. Truth alone is bliss, light which illuminates the dark night covering the earth. I Myself am the truth and he who is within truth is closely united with Me.

As long as you people are not acquainted with the truth, you lack the necessary light for your earthly life. You do walk along the road of life; but where does it lead you without truth? It can lead only into the depth whilst you would irrevocably reach the height if you walk on the path of truth, which is brightly illuminated and leads you to the goal, to Me Who is Eternal Truth Itself. And as I have promised you while walking on earth, I am always prepared to guide you into truth.I will reveal Myself in My love, wisdom and power to everyone who in his heart desires to listen to Me and be guided into truth by Me.

This is the most important prayer you can address to Me for it proves your earnest will to turn back. It also proves that you acknowledge Me as your God and Father, and it is a spiritual prayer which is sure to be granted.

As soon as I am able to convey to you the pure truth, you learn to know and to love Me. And I want your love, I am longing for it, but it can only be deep and pure when pure truth has taught you everything: about your origin and your former relationship with Me and about the goal which is reunion with Me.

Then love will flame up within you and you will keep pressing closer to Me and become capable of more profound knowledge and, resulting from this, greater bliss.

You will learn about My eternal plan of salvation, about the Father's love for His children and the great task of redemption for which everyone can offer Me his services. You will learn to love Me and this love will make you happy, for it will lead you to the final union with Me, to eternal life.

However, truth alone leads to the goal! And after this you people should strive. You should lovingly surrender to Me and you will be taught by Me, your God and Father, Who is omniscient and, therefore, able and willing to teach you everything, because He loves you.

AMEN
