Value of the directly received word compared to the viewed word ....

B.D. No. 2457 August 25th 1942

Those to whom God imparts His word receive the knowledge of the truth in a form that leaves no room for doubt compared to those who have gained insight into the spiritual realm through dreams or visions or who gain knowledge of future events through such, for the latter now express in their own words what they have seen and are often unable to find the right words. Moreover, only their perceptions or predictions are rarely believed because people want proof. The direct word, however, speaks for itself and can also be passed on in an unbiased way as soon as the recipient wants to serve God through it. The direct word also gives complete clarity in questions of faith, in questions of doubt, whereas what was seen clairvoyantly can be interpreted in different ways and this was also done depending on the spiritual direction of the seer or the one to whom the spiritual image is conveyed. For the knowledge previously possessed is always taken as a basis, but rarely will someone be willing to renounce this knowledge and now accept the knowledge offered to him from the spiritual kingdom ....

Amen
