Pre-humans ....
Creation pictured ....

You must visualise the development of every work of creation in order to gain the conviction that the human being also had to cover an infinitely long period of development before he reached the stage where he could think, speak and act in free will. To a certain extent, an outer form had to be formed which was suitable for any kind of activity; furthermore, an organic activity had to be possible for this outer form which served the preservation of the body. But this outer form had first to come into being in the most primitive way and to refine itself in the course of a long time, i.e. a long period of formation was necessary until this outer form was so formed that intellect and free will were added to it and could now carry out any activity rationally.

It follows from this that there was no sudden creation of man by God, although this was easily possible for Him, but did not correspond to His wisdom and love, but that a slowly ascending development preceded, the product of which is man who is capable of thinking, wanting freely and carrying out deeds, who could now also be held responsible for his thinking, wanting and doing. Thus, before the fully developed human being, there were already human-like living beings on earth on different levels of development, but in terms of time there was no great difference, so that (for) at the same (same) time the whole earth was animated (not animated) .... (crossed out and in brackets was changed in the handwriting) by the living being who could lay claim to the name of man, who was therefore in possession of free will and a well-developed mind, and consequently capable of acquiring a certain degree of knowledge.

And this being multiplied according to divine will and divine order, for every work of creation, including the human being, is subject to divine natural law, and it is guided and determined to act in accordance with nature, on which its existence also depends. He can also violate this natural law, but this also endangers his physical life as a human being on earth as well as his soul life, for whose (the soul's = ed.) further development the outer form was given to him (the soul = ed.).

(8.5.1948) For the sake of the high goal the human being also had to be given abilities by God which can enable him to reach this goal if his free will is seriously directed towards it. The human being must acquire abilities himself, he must develop his talents and strive to attain the highest maturity of soul. Thus, even as a human being he must continue to develop, and no longer according to his external form, but his thinking, willing and acting must be directed towards his inner form, so that at the end of his earthly career a being will enter the spiritual kingdom which resembles the originally created being, just as it originated from God. ....

The act of creation is therefore a process which took place over a long period of time but which was presented to people in a way that was comprehensible to them, for the creature's state of imperfection results in ignorance, in the inability to understand the deepest motives of creation, its meaning and purpose and its final goal, and the ultimate goal of the creatures God had placed on earth, so knowledge had to be offered to the latter in a form that gave a rough outline of God's activity and work, in order to make the creation of the earth and all living creatures understandable to man.

But as soon as the human being achieves the shaping of love in free will, as soon as he develops the ability to receive spiritual teachings, as soon as he is mentally in contact with the spiritual kingdom, he will also know about the pure truth, about the slow upward development of all creation and thus also of man, who, as the crown of creation, is the only living being that can transform ignorance into a high degree of knowledge, to whom therefore also the ability has been given to recognise God and His working, which reveals love, wisdom and omnipotence.

If a person has acquired this knowledge, he will also be able to explain the figurative comparison which was once given to the ancients who, if they were pious and God-fearing, understood its true meaning. Faithless people, on the other hand, regard every depiction of creation as untrue or unacceptable, and they reject it without knowing the truth or being able to oppose it with better knowledge. But even if the truth could be offered to them clearly and comprehensibly, they would reject it because their intellect does not comprehend it, since their hearts are without love ....

Amen
