| Your new inner reactions will leave you so free, make you feel so wonderful! You may also | 21 THE FALL |
| earth sphere you have the possibility with your free will to develop and to decide which side | 22 SALVATION |
| aspect was turned into its opposite quality. Therefore, free will, which is divine, was turned into domination | 22 SALVATION |
| back to God. Therefore, you should set them free. Lucifer would not agree to that. He maintained | 22 SALVATION |
| many cases before it can be overcome by free will and the being's own initiative. The desire | 22 SALVATION |
| all living spirits can use this power in free choice. Part of the expression of this power | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| is established and runs according to plan. The free will of the individual plays a role in | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| But that does not mean that you are free to commit sins, to be careless about the | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| power and it would be according to his free will how he would use this power. He | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| are several plans, meeting all eventualities resulting from free will. Either one will come true or another | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| and prepared for all possible decisions, resulting from free will. This is an important part of the | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |

| Certainly. He saw one plan, and if the free will of the people would work to avoid | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |

| and not the many other possibilities according to free will. QUESTION: So seers, such as Nostradamus, have | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| of the many other possibilities arising out of free will. That is why such seers are sometimes | 23 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| be discreet about this. We cannot violate your free will. If you choose to mention something, then | 24 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| secret, I have no right to violate your free will. QUESTION: I was wondering about what goes | 24 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS |
| current right. By doing so, you would set free in yourself a wonderful life force and a | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| not entirely. Your higher self, which is partly free, already manifests through your good qualities, your generosity | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| you develop yourself, you make your higher self free of the shadows and layers of the lower | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| in any way depending on the individual spirit's free will. Now that explains why or how this | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| created the possibility for evil if with their free will people -- or spirits -- use this | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| a great difference between creating evil, or giving free will and power to God's creatures who can | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| all beings the possibility to choose freely. Logically, free will includes the possibility of using it wrongly | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| are supposed to become godlike, they must be free, for freedom is a divine aspect. The wrong | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| a sign that the soul is not yet free from its own entanglements. If the inner forces | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| according to divine law, the soul is not free. With one person this will manifest in the | 25 THE PATH: INITIAL STEPS, PREPARATION, AND DECISIONS |
| currents and emotional reactions, and this will automatically free a strength and life force that was previously | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| good, because by overcoming your lower self you free yourself of your own chains, is something else | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| will have attained some victory that will already free you of one little inner chain. I would | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| reject all advice and hints as untrue. Since free will is never violated, these people are free | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| free will is never violated, these people are free to go with those spirits who have not | 26 FINDING ONE'S FAULTS |
| have discovered this, you will see that your free will is very powerful and yet your free | 27 ESCAPE POSSIBLE ALSO ON THE PATH |
| free will is very powerful and yet your free will alone, without the help of God and | 27 ESCAPE POSSIBLE ALSO ON THE PATH |
| very short sentence: real love must be entirely free of ego, pride, vanity, and self-will. That is | 27 ESCAPE POSSIBLE ALSO ON THE PATH |
| a passive attitude? When should you use the free will you have been endowed with, which corresponds | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| with, which corresponds to activity, and when should free will not be exercised -- which is a | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| ways of doing it. Whenever you have a free moment, think about the past few hours and | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| determine clearly what is self-will in comparison with free will. Self-will is the will of the little | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| Self-will is the will of the little ego. Free will comprises everything: you can use free will | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| ego. Free will comprises everything: you can use free will for good or bad ends. That is | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| to find God's will, you must certainly be free of self-will, but your active and clean willpower | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| of the very opposite. If your will is free of self-pampering and is pure and humble, God's | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| your innermost motives and hidden currents. Only a free person can do that. Conversely, if people constantly | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| often forced to battle against forces that abuse free will and divine law. If people take the | 29 THE FORCES OF ACTIVITY AND PASSIVITY -- FINDING GOD'S WILL |
| is a human being alive who is entirely free of self-will, pride, and fear. Thus my words | 30 SELF-WILL, PRIDE AND FEAR |
| there is a distinct difference between self-will and free will. To make sure that you understand it | 30 SELF-WILL, PRIDE AND FEAR |
| clearly in this connection, I will repeat that free will can be used for good or for | 30 SELF-WILL, PRIDE AND FEAR |
| cannot be attained without the full use of free will. The will of God cannot be fulfilled | 30 SELF-WILL, PRIDE AND FEAR |
| God cannot be fulfilled unless you use your free will to accept it of your own accord | 30 SELF-WILL, PRIDE AND FEAR |
| of your own accord and your own choosing. Free will is the greatest gift with which you | 30 SELF-WILL, PRIDE AND FEAR |
| sense. Only in that way will you be free of fear. I do not have to go | 30 SELF-WILL, PRIDE AND FEAR |
| your body is asleep and your spirit is free; this knowledge remains in your unconscious and can | 30 SELF-WILL, PRIDE AND FEAR |
| only possible way for you to become truly free and independent. However, there are certain exceptions in | 30 SELF-WILL, PRIDE AND FEAR |
| own salvation. Of course, you always have your free will and this we spirits will respect at | 31 SHAME |
| not do it for you. You are always free, therefore, to refuse and retire deeper into your | 31 SHAME |
| opportunity. But you have to decide with your free will whether or not you want to learn | 31 SHAME |
| to find. The first prerequisite is to be free and open enough to be able to talk | 31 SHAME |
| on your loved one who will then feel free of your expectations and not be forced or | 32 DECISION-MAKING |
| Once you have done that you will be free and will feel a new independence from other | 33 OCCUPATION WITH SELF -- RIGHT AND WRONG FAITH |

| a spiritual attitude. Of course you have your free will and can say no, but if you | 37 ACCEPTANCE, RIGHT AND WRONG WAY -- DIGNITY IN HUMILITY |
| should be discussed at all, depends on how free you are of resentment and of blindness. In | 37 ACCEPTANCE, RIGHT AND WRONG WAY -- DIGNITY IN HUMILITY |

| you had hoped to avoid, you will become free. So, for the time being, approach image-finding from | 40 MORE ON IMAGE-FINDING: A SUMMARY |
| level. You know that entities have their own free will and choice to a large degree. Others | 41 IMAGES: THE DAMAGE THEY DO |
| the mere knowledge of it will make you free. That feeling of freedom I mentioned may occasionally | 41 IMAGES: THE DAMAGE THEY DO |

| will not deceive myself that I am utterly free of selfishness, vanity, or whatever other trend may | 45 THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS DESIRES |
| that way now, but I hope to become free of them. By observing yourself in this way | 45 THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS DESIRES |
| are purer than you are. You believe yourself free of lower motives, while they ferment in your | 45 THE CONFLICT BETWEEN CONSCIOUS AND UNCONSCIOUS DESIRES |

| With the help of God you will truly free yourself from the chains of error caused by | 49 OBSTACLES ON THE PATH: OLD STUFF, WRONG GUILT, AND WHO, ME? |
| your personal vicious circle. Thus you will become free and independent. The human soul contains all the | 50 THE VICIOUS CIRCLE |
