I APPEAL TO YOU
.... through Bertha Dudde - 18.8.1956
Consider the time after death....
One day you all will have to lay down your earthly body and your soul
will be assigned another abode.... Not one of you will escape his
fate, everyone can expect his physical death with certainty. Thus you
know that your life on earth is limited and that no-one can prevent
his body's death when his hour has come.... Yet in spite of this
certainty you live your life on earth as if it would never end. You
always plan and work for the future without knowing whether you will
still experience it. You don't take this into account but it is a
fact; you only create and work for your short life on earth which does
not last. You yourselves, however, will not perish, your soul stays
alive even after your body's death, and your soul is your real
Self.... Hence there is, in fact, no death for you, only a change of
location....
If you think about this very seriously then you will act prudently by
taking care that this said later location will make you happy. Then
your concern will include the time when you no longer live on this
earth but continue your life in the kingdom of the beyond which,
however, is created corresponding to your conduct on earth. You would
all be more diligent if you believed this. The more you worry about
the upkeep of your body, the less you believe that you will go on
living.
You cannot receive evidence for this because your earthly life must
not be determined by fear which, however, would be triggered in you,
who do not strive to ascend voluntarily, by the certainty of a
continuation of life after death. Voluntary aspirants are indeed
certain of it, they believe.... but precisely because they strive to
ascend. And a striving born out of fear will not lead to perfection.
Therefore it cannot be proven to you humans that there is life after
death. But everyone can awaken the belief in it himself simply by
seriously considering it and wanting to do what is right.
People's attention will therefore be ever more obviously drawn to the
fleeting nature of what they value too highly. People are snatched
away in the midst of their lives, and from this everyone could learn
to regard his life, too, as a gift that could be taken away from him
any day.... And he would only have to pursue the thoughts arising in
him in the event of a fellow human being's sudden death.... He would
only have to pursue the departed soul into infinity.... He would only
have to think more often of him, who did not cease to exist but merely
changed his abode.... And truly, hands would extend to him from the
spiritual realm to draw him up.
Yet even if the human being lacks the certainty of life after death he
should nevertheless expect the possibility and time and again
visualise this possibility when other people die and question what his
own fate might be if he were to be called away suddenly. For as long
as the human being cannot prove that there is no continuation of life
after death.... which will never be possible.... he should always make
provisions. And he will never regret if he, on earth, not only
considers his body but also his soul, if he gathers a few spiritual
treasures on earth which then will help him to advance in the
spiritual kingdom. Then the soul will reap what the person has sown on
earth, and blessed is the soul which has made provisions on earth for
eternity....
Amen
B.D. 6625

For by grace are we saved through faith, and that not of ourselves.
it is the gift of God. Not of works, lest anyone should boast.
Ephesians 2 : 8 - 9
The good that we do after receiving God's salvation through our faith
in Jesus Christ counts towards a reward in eternity.
1 Corinthians 3 : 11 - 15
