I APPEAL TO YOU
.... through Bertha Dudde - 9.5.1948
Dogma....
It is not a spiritual violation if a person from a certain school of
thought is introduced to another one, if he is offered information
which contradicts his knowledge, as long as he is able to accept or
reject it of his own free will. However, if he is forced into
acceptance by law, if he is placed into a punishable state, i.e. if,
through threat of punishment, his thoughts and actions become
constrained, then it is a violation which can never have good results
for his soul. Therefore, My Word should always be preached, but never
forcefully imposed on people. For this reason the transmission of pure
truth from above is an act of purest freedom of will which always
allows an unenlightened person the option to look at it as human
fabrication, if the listener's will of rejection is stronger. Every
human being is able to recognise the divine origin if he is genuinely
interested in the pure truth and the continued progress of his soul.
In that case he will certainly also be given the ability by Me to
recognise the truth as such, because it is My will that the human
being's thoughts should be within the realm of truth and I will
provide him with every opportunity to recognise what is right.
But I, for My part, will never forcibly influence the will of a
person, therefore I also disapprove of people being spiritually forced
by other people by teachings which, in the form of dogma, oblige their
acceptance or else they are regarded as sinful. The human being has to
be answerable for every offence against My commandment of love but I
will never call him to account if his inner feeling prevents him from
accepting a religious doctrine, even if it corresponds to the truth.
Even then he will still not burden himself with sin, his longing for
truth is just not sufficiently deep yet to allow him to recognise the
truth as such. However, the acceptance of religious dogma without
scrutiny and inner conviction is completely worthless for the
development of the soul. Dogma is always unfavourable for the soul
because the human being is being stopped from forming an opinion about
a religious doctrine, yet without deep thought no conviction of faith
can ever be gained.
People certainly need leaders if they do not endeavour their soul's
spiritualisation of their own accord; nevertheless, wise guides should
only teach and thus try to stimulate the heart and intellect because
the connection to Me, to the spiritual kingdom, has to be established
by every individual person himself. And the path to this end should be
shown by My representatives on earth by the spreading of My Word. They
should always allow Me to speak and never add their own words, decree
commandments or impose commitments on people as if they were demanded
by Me.... I allow every person to keep his freedom, and I Am only
concerned with the uninterrupted transmission and spreading of truth.
Anyone who is searching for it is searching for Me and, truly, I will
let Myself be found by him; but anyone who does not sincerely strive
for truth will not derive any benefit from the acceptance of religious
doctrines either, which are presented to him as dogma and therefore he
believes that he may not reject them.
Every dogmatic instruction is a restriction of the freedom of will
which was given by Me to people, hence it is a spiritual violation
which does not correspond to My will and which My representatives on
earth should fight against on My behalf. And I will bless every bearer
of truth, I will give him the opportunity to spread the truth even
though it will meet with opposition. Yet anyone who seriously wants it
will recognise it and become thoughtful, and I will help him, I will
illuminate his spirit and bless his will....
Amen
B.D. 4294
