Nothing is needed more today than love. Nothing is needed more today than unity in love. This abundant, complete, absolute oneness, which permits no thwarting and no disturbing of the unity in which we become one heart and one soul, is needed today more than perhaps at any other time. Just that is most needed from God, the opposite of which has been lashed into greatest fury by the demons. Certainly propertylessness is very much needed today; certainly it is of greatest significance that there be purity in men’s lives, complete abstinence and asceticism before marriage and absolute faithfulness in marriage in the sense that everything which takes place does so out of the Spirit.

In such times the sacrament of forgiveness is needed more than ever, for the enemy’s furious hatred challenges us to meet him with the opposite. Our enemies are the very ones we should love by having faith and understanding for them, knowing that in spite of their blindness they have a divine spark that needs to be fanned. Love for our enemies has to be so real that it reaches their hearts. For that is what love does. When that happens, we will find the hidden spark from God in the heart of even the greatest sinner.

Yesterday's quote
June 27,2026
The hour of decision has come over the world; even the blind must see it! Therefore it is important now to get together, not for our sake, but the Ark is meant, that it may reach the shore and lay the foundations for a new world. It is meant in the sense that we belong wherever there is the seed of a new world, where the light of peace and unity has broken in through the dark layers which surround the world. All must come together and remain together, for it is the hour of decision, and no disunion can be tolerated. It is a matter of life or death, of love or hatred, of God or Satan.

The planet earth is surrounded, as it were, by an insulating layer formed by the thoughts of men, by the mass-impulses of men. And now it is important for God’s Spirit, for God’s love, that somewhere there is a breach, that somewhere absolute love, full brotherliness and complete clarity, also complete readiness for the fight against all evil spirits, can break through and break in. It makes no difference where this place is. One could say it is neither here nor there. Just as the clouds in the sky change continually, thus also this open place through which God’s love and peace break in is not bound to any place. Jesus says that where two or three gather in His name, in His being, in His power, He is in their midst.
