You may regard it as a certainty that the world is poised before a
change, spiritual as well as physical. The Earth itself stands before
a total transformation - a re-structuring of its surface as well as a
re-shaping of its interior, and men likewise must prepare for a
process with spiritual repercussions, because everything living upon
Earth: man, animal and plant, shall have ceased to exist as soon as
the re-shaping is under way.

It will be understandable, therefore, that the grounds for an all-
embracing transformation will be spiritual, that a new school for
spirit shall be created, and this calls for the destruction of
everything old. The Earth cannot remain as at present, if it is not
to circle through the universe amid other planets and moons devoid of
all purpose.

A change has to take place, and those men shall live to see the act of
transformation upon whom God has bestowed the Grace of using the last
opportunities for maturing, because God has blessed the final time of
this Earth's existence by heaping graces upon graces on men, so that
they will be able to mature by the last day.

That the gifts of grace go unheeded - that they are unwelcomed and
hence not accepted - is only proof that the end time has come. Only
few, therefore, shall be able to observe the final act of
transformation, as these stand within God's Will, and hence have
knowledge of His Plan of Salvation from eternity.

These shall incur no harm from the process of transformation, as they
shall be lifted from the Earth before the final work of destruction
of the old Earth, and are therefore only affected by the change to
the extent of exchanging their habitation for a Kingdom of Peace,
until they are again led to the newly formed Earth, as progenitors of
the new human race.

The others have, until the last day, ample opportunity to change,
however, and thus to save themselves. Because as soon as the
spiritual transformation has taken place in them - return of the soul
to God, from Whom they were alienated through the firmest resistance -
these souls also become aspirants for the Kingdom of the Blessed,
and need no longer fear the ruin of the old Earth. Nothing of the
creations of the old Earth shall remain, neither any man alive who
had not been previously been lifted.

Complete destruction of the Earth's surface as a whole also results
in the end of every creature, and where a soul is still capable of
change, the change will have been accomplished at the hour of the
last judgment. Spiritual change, therefore, is a man's criterion,
whether he will live to see the end of this Earth-epoch, and is
permitted to inhabit the new Earth as a child of God.

All men are still be capable of change, but only few are willing to
change, and hence the act of transformation of the Earth shall take
place because men's will no longer takes the right direction, and the
Earth no longer accords with its destiny. Earth life is misused.

And thus mankind collectively stands before a spiritual change which
shall not, however, take place on the old Earth, and which only few
men will consciously live to see, whilst the largest part of mankind
shall, indeed, enter a new stage of development, and therefore shall
also be affected by the spiritual change, but in a most retrograde
sense. They lose their physical life but continue their existence in
an entirely different form. Life has ceased, and a condition
of "death" or sleep enfolds the soul because, as man, it had failed,
not having utilised the opportunity to change, to redeem itself.

In the universe, however, the act of transformation signifies an
entirely new period of Salvation, and the termination of an epoch
supremely memorable, when God Himself incarnated on Earth through the
Christ in Jesus, in order to exemplify to mankind the transformation
from man to a divine being, which all men ought to carry out on
themselves.

The Earth, which carried His earthly body, must now also help the
hardened physical, solid matter, to salvation, every creature must
undergo a change of its outer form, everything bound in form beneath
the level of man must be allowed to maintain its upward-impetus,
which is only possible through a total transformation of the Earth.

If, therefore, this phase of salvation is coming to an end, it also
signifies the end for all creations in, upon, and above the Earth, so
that forward development can take its inception in the creations of
the new Earth for all redeemable souls which shall animate the
various forms corresponding with its attitude toward God until its
ultimate salvation.
