INFLUENCE BY THE PRINCE OF LIES ON PEOPLE’S THINKING . . . .
Look at humanity’s conduct. It is dominated by the spirit of lies and
this is causing indescribable confusion. Human thinking will distance
itself ever further from the truth, for the human being mentally
accepts the lie and has no way of recognising it as such, and thus the
person’s emotional life will be led astray as well. It is therefore
understandable that the layer around the human soul continues to
thicken, thus the person distances himself more and more from the
truth since the spirit in him cannot express itself, i.e. the soul is
incapable of receiving spiritual truths.
As soon as a person’s thinking takes the wrong direction the voice of
the spirit gradually subsides until, in the end, it is no longer
heard. The result is a human race which lives in complete ignorance,
which strives towards completely different goals than they were
originally supposed to achieve. Hence, earthly life is entirely
unsuccessful, because as long as the human being lives in error he
turns to the power from which he should separate himself. The God-
opposing power subsequently makes use of this inclined will and
determines the being to commit God-opposing actions in order to
destroy all ties and to subjugate the being completely. And this state
among mankind can now clearly be recognised....
Earthly life is lived totally independently from God, people only
rarely think of the One from Whom everything emerged…. or every
thought relating to spiritual matters is anxiously kept secret. God is
no longer publicly professed, providing He is at all thought of. All
these are visible signs of powers which are hostile to God, for their
influence grows stronger the weaker the human being becomes. And since
the human being keeps distancing himself ever further from the eternal
Deity, his strength to resist the evil influence grows constantly
weaker. Instead, he receives the strength from the God-opposing power
which supports him in all earthly undertakings.
Thus earthly success is always guaranteed through this said strength
and the earthly success, in turn, contributes towards a complete
separation from God, for the human being no longer needs divine
strength, consequently he no longer calls upon God either but denies
Him.... And it is the adversary’s intention to alienate the human
being completely from thoughts of God, for then he will have absolute
control over him. He has become a victor over the being which had the
choice to whom it wanted to concede victory.
It has chosen God’s adversary and thus walked its earthly path in an
entirely wrong direction....
Yet God will not let these beings fall…. He will provide them with the
evidence that everything earthly worth striving for is also subject to
His power…. that He can destroy it if it corresponds to His will. He
by no means haphazardly destroys what the human being deems desirable,
but this work of destruction will, from a spiritual point of view,
also be of greatest advantage for countless entities. Yet people who
do not recognise its profound significance will be sorely affected by
it, for they will lose everything which, until now, signified their
whole life.
And once again they are facing the decision…. to strive for the same
again or to recognise the transience of it and to gather everlasting
possessions for themselves. For at the moment of destruction the
adversary loses power, and if the person recognises the impotence of
the latter the possibility is given that he might recognise a
different Lord above himself and turn to Him. Earthly possession is
the share of the evil power for it contains unredeemed spiritual
substances, and the human being should not desire what was his place
of abode for an infinitely long time before.... he should not strive
towards something which took him endless times to overcome….
And thus the obvious worthlessness of it has to be proven to him, so
that he will turn away from it and towards that which will come after
him, after his life on earth. He must relinquish earthly matter and
desire spiritual things, then he will also overcome the final form and
liberate himself from every chain. However, spiritual things continue
to exist and therefore belong in the realm of truth....
Worldly things, however, are transient, thus they belong to the realm
of darkness, to untruth, for it only shelters immature spiritual
substance which did not recognise the truth and therefore were
banished. Consequently, the human being can never know the truth as
long as he desires earthly goods and, precisely because of this
desire, concedes power to the prince of lies. And as long as he
strives for earthly possessions he will be dominated by the lie, and
his thinking has to be misguided, for the prince of lies tries to
influence the person’s thoughts first and to completely distance him
from the truth. Therefore, the state of people is extremely alarming
and can only be remedied if God Himself breaks the adversary’s power
by destroying earthly possessions…. Amen
