Recognition - Faith - Knowledge - Love ....

It is the earthly life of the individual that determines life in eternity. This realisation also allows the human being to live consciously, i.e. he will endeavour to lead a way of life according to God's will in order to gain eternal life. Yet most people lack this realisation because they can only attain true knowledge through love and lack the will to believe in life after death, otherwise they would also strive for eternal life without knowledge.

The believing human being does not doubt this even though he cannot be proven what he is taught about life in eternity; nevertheless, he adjusts his earthly life according to his faith .... But the person who has become knowledgeable through love needs no proof, for the knowledge gained through the working of love is proof enough for him. And thus he consciously strives for eternal life .... He seeks to shape himself according to divine will in order to be able to be close to God after his death, which means life for the being.

But if the human being lacks all belief in a continuation of life, then he only lives on earth for this world, he does not respect divine will, he does not work on himself, i.e. on his soul, he will only live for this world.That is, he will only love himself and disregard the commandment of neighbourly love, thus he will never attain spiritual brightness, he will remain without knowledge and therefore not use his earthly life for the salvation of his soul. And at the end of his life he will recognise his idleness and pass spiritually dead into the kingdom of the beyond, for he has only used earthly life for his physical well-being. But the body will pass away and with it everything he strives for .... earthly goods and pleasures ....

In the spiritual kingdom the human being will take nothing with him that was dear to him on earth, only his soul, and this is in an extremely poor condition, powerless and without life. For no other fate can blossom for the soul than the one the human being has prepared for it on earth ..... And therefore the human being has to believe, i.e. he has to receive instructions about his earthly task and the consequences of fulfilling or not fulfilling this task. And accordingly he must shape his earthly life. If he makes an effort then he will be active in love according to the instructions, and then he will also receive the knowledge which will give him the inner conviction that his faith is not groundless ....

And as soon as he is convinced of this it will be easy for him to live according to God's will, for then he will know that life does not end with the death of the body, and this certainty will let him live and strive consciously, this certainty will fill him with strength and joy .... He does not fear death, he does not fear responsibility, for his thoughts and aspirations are always turned towards God and full of hope that one day his soul will attain the vision of God, that it will live in unlimited bliss and will never again be separated from the One Whom it recognises and to Whom it has united itself through the working of love ....

Amen
