Looking Back, Edition No. 1
Looking Back,
The greatness that takes place in our time is the fact that God again gives His
word to mankind. It began in January of 1975 with the breakthrough of His divine
word in the innermost being of our sister Gabriele. Christ spoke to her: Do not
be afraid. I have accompanied you during your entire earthly life. You were
always under my protection. For you went out to receive My word and to pass it
on to the world. Already at the very beginning the great goal was given: The foundation of a
world-encompassing work of redemption and of the Kingdom of Peace of Jesus
Christ. It was her untiring effort which made the emergence of the work possible. She traveled almost every weekend in order to give the spiritual world the opportunity to give revelations to us in two, mostly three, sometimes even four, different locations. On these occasions Gabriele put out an almost unimaginable effort. Not only did she receive the word, often standing erect in highest concentration with her arms outspread and this sometimes on four consecutive days she also endured without complaint the strain of the often long and strenuous journeys, which took her beyond the German-speaking countries of Austria and Switzerland, namely to France, Italy, Spain (including North Africa), the United States, Mexico and Canada. And how happy she made all of us, for our souls were touched by the words of the
revelations. The person who once has heard and absorbed a revelation with an
open heart knows what indescribable feeling of happiness flows through person
and soul, which awakens the longing to experience it again and again. At this
initial stage, we did not mind at all the rooms where we met, which were small
and not always very appealing then. Nor did it bother us in any way that the
texts of the many revelations which Gabriele had already recorded on tape were
published at first as very simple documents. In the truest sense of the word, we
were thirsty for the messages from our true homeland. While there were only four men and women in those days carrying the external responsibility for the constantly growing work of the Lord, it soon grew to seven and then ever more, supported by those responsible in the various cities as well as those who already had taken on spiritual duties but always guided by Gabriele through whom the spiritual world revealed more and more details about the laws of true life. And so, the work grew constantly; ever more people all over the Earth felt addressed by the spiritual tidings and joined the work, not by entering an external organization or by paying membership dues, but by taking the schoolings seriously and by including in their everyday life the advice coming from heaven, which ultimately came from the center of all Being, and thus actualizing it step by step. The work grew so large that in 1984 the Homebringing Mission of Jesus Christ and the Center for Prayer, Meditation and Healing became Universal Life (Universelles Leben), for Christ had made true His promise and had sent us the Spirit, the Comforter, who led us into all truth. But now what held was to put into practice that which had been revealed, to let it flow into all aspects of our everyday life. People joined together in enterprises of all kinds, for all of us here on Earth need food, clothing and shelter a wide range with which to serve our neighbor. Just as the work itself grew, so did the public revelation events also grow; the
rooms in which we met grew ever larger. As early as 1981, when GOD-FATHER
revealed Himself for the first time through His prophetess, more than a thousand
people had gathered. GOD-FATHER spoke to us with such a mighty voice that it
effortlessly filled the hall down to its farthest corner. As overwhelming as the
event was, the physical strain on Gabrieles human body was equally great. And
the revelations grew even larger. Great revelations followed in major cities,
then festivals lasting several days, for example, in the Great Exposition Hall
of Frankfurt, in the Hall of the Meistersinger in Nuremberg, in the
Olympic-Center in Munich and many others. In the years 1989/1990 the first radio stations in South America, France, Spain
and Italy began to broadcast programs which dealt with the spiritual message of
Universal Life. At first these programs consisted of interviews which brought
the teachings of the Christ of God to the listeners in more detail. But soon
programs containing meditations and schoolings had to be produced on tape. As
early as 1990 regular direct broadcasts started on Wednesday mornings at 6:30
A.M. via telephone transmission to radio stations in Italy, Spain and even to
South America (time-delayed). Through Gabriele, the Spirit of the Christ of God
gave in these Christ-Radiations His healing radiation which lasted more than
an hour. In 1992, we started broadcasting The Cosmic Teachings of Jesus of Nazareth
with explanations by Gabriele, the so-called Teaching Contemplations; these
were also broadcast time-delayed over the whole day on Sunday worldwide and in
several languages. In 1996 the radio stations broadcasting the word of the Lord worldwide numbered more than three hundred. As early as 1993 the first broadcasts in German started on short-wave which could now be heard around the globe. In 1995 a major radio station was contracted and this made it possible to transmit in the AM band with great power. Thus our radio programs are now heard all over Europe. Additionally, via the same radio station we were able to broadcast our programs worldwide on short-wave in the five major languages. And so it is still today. It really is Universal Life Worldwide, and we
receive enthusiastic letters from all parts of the world, even from countries to
which we had no access in the past, for example, Cuba, Algeria, Libya, Egypt,
etc. Just in the first year of our broadcasts in Togo we received over eight
hundred letters in which people not only warmly expressed their gratitude for
the spiritual tidings, but also asked thousands of questions about healing, the
Inner Path, and so on. A so-called Internet Radio is also running, an Internet channel in which, at
certain times, programs are inserted into a continuous music program. It is also
possible to broadcast events live through this channel. In 2000 something very special was added: the workshops of The Stronghold of
Divine Wisdom for which people come to Wurzburg from many countries. These are
seminars dealing with interesting or even volatile topics such as Faithfulness
to Your True Being Is Independence from People, Things and Situations, We
Learn to Focus, Happiness and Health Lie in Your Hands and many others. Dear reader, much more could be reported and above all in greater detail in this
short review, which at the same time is an opportunity to look forward. However,
the second edition of this series is already in planning, and will show, on the
basis of the reactions from all over the world, how intensely the Spirit of the
Christ of God through Gabriele, the prophetess and spiritual ambassador of God
for our time, has addressed us in our inner being, and how much love and
strength people all over the world receive from this. Let us look forward
together to the next edition which will appear soon! |
