Nuisances .... Fornication .... Faithlessness ....

B.D. No. 1551 August 3rd 1940

You live in a world of nuisances, and you must take great care that it does not destroy you. You pay no attention to the false spirit around you, which wears the mask of the righteous and which can be your undoing if God does not grant you protection. Covetousness is rampant among mankind, there is a nameless immorality in all classes, and the spirit of purity is driven out, it finds no place where it can settle to work through man. And there is no help for mankind unless it helps itself and seeks to fight its lust once and for all. For man must also work on himself, and he must not indulge in any laxity if he does not want to cause unimaginable damage to his soul. The more faithlessness takes over, the less man respects the divine laws .... Life has become so self-evident to him that he does not consider it possible that it could be taken away from him, and he now seeks to savour this life and distances himself more and more from God. Earthly life, which was given to him for his union with God, for his complete liberation and for consciously working on his soul, is only then worth living when it is utilised. Yet as long as the earthly incentive is still effective the work on the soul can hardly be tackled, for this world no longer has anything in the way of earthly successes for a spiritual striving earthly child .... But earthly successes are certainly worth striving for a detached human being, yet not for a person permeated by the divine spirit ....

Amen
