**NEW** 2023 Private Revelations - Page Updated October 27, 2023
"Mankind will not have peace until it
turns with trust to My Mercy." (Diary 300)
Please Note:
This Flash Memoir is written
on behalf of a friend named Rosemary, BA. BEd. Names and identifying
details have been changed to protect the privacy of individuals.
Please refer to the "Private Revelation" page of the web site to
get a better understanding of what private revelations are and
why they are of benefit to the Church.
"I bear a special
love for Poland, and if she will be obedient to My will, I will
exalt her in might and holiness. From her will come forth the
spark that will prepare the world for My final coming." (Diary
1732)
"Oh, what happens to a soul that meets the Lord face to face, no
pen has ever expressed or ever will express!" (Diary 691)
"And instruct them to keep everything whatever I have commanded
you, and behold, I am with you every day, even unto the end of
time." (Matthew 28:20)
"He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them; he it is that
loveth me. And he that loveth me, shall be loved of my Father:
and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him." (John
14:21)
Well before I begin my entries for this new
page I must tell you that I can remember praying to God and
telling him that I tried my best to do His will with the graces
He has sent me so far. But I also reminded Him (although He does not
need reminding of course) of my personal and vocational
limitations of which He most certainly is aware, since He is God
and the one that created me.
I guess I was feeling discouraged again in
that I felt I could not do much more with regards to my sharing
my private revelations. I would basically be repeating myself,
since it appeared to me that there is not much more for me to
say and I was beginning to sound like a broken record.
It was looking like the evidence God had
provided me as to the certainty of my private revelations, didn't
seem to phase people - in that I did not see an english mass
coming anytime soon, the Divine Mercy Image (shrine) remains
covered up/hidden for over two years now, I am still banned from
private adoration for the incomprehensible reason, that "I am
the only one doing it," so what more could I do?
I thought to myself, I better just put my pen down, and leave
the rest of the work to God at this point. After all, God
certainly doesn't need me, nor anyone else for that matter to
accomplish His will.
So I thought that perhaps I will not publish
any more of my mystical experiences or private revelations as
the urgency of God's "Divine Mercy" message has been pretty much
exhausted on this website etc etc. Well it seems I was
wrong, in that it looks like God decided He wants me to repeat
the importance of "The Divine Mercy" which is an
urgent message and
the heart of the gospels and therefore not optional as discussed in previous writings.
So once again, He has provided me with even more evidence - so here I go picking up my pen once again!
*NEW* February 15, 2023 -
Pileated Woodpecker- Stop And Smell The Roses - A
Taste of Heaven
Today I decided to paint the new trim
surrounding the patio doors. While it was a typically cold
winter day, the sun shining through the patio doors was very
hot! After I had finished painting the trim around the first
patio door, I proceeded to paint the trim on the second patio
door. By this point the sun had come around to the southern
side of the house and I was getting to feel very hot, so much so
that I desperately desired to finish the job quickly so I could
get out of the hot sun beaming directly on me through the glass.
Considering the paint was fast drying, I knew that taking a
break at this point was not an option, for if I did this, the
paint job would not turn out as nice as I have experienced in
the past. Also, it was past lunch time and I was getting very
tired and hungry considering the full morning of work I had
done. I often speak to my guardian angel, expressing what is on
my mind and at times ask them to assist me, and this
was one of those times. Your guardian angel is a great friend
and comfort. I remember listening to a video where Fr. Chad Ripperger said that he had an experience in which it was revealed
to him that our guardian angel looks exactly
like we do. In essence, they are a mirror image of each and everyone of us, a
double, can you imagine that?
While conversing with my guardian angel I
continued painting, when out of the blue, something absolutely
amazing happened! All of a sudden this giant sized bird landed
on the birdfeeder station situated on the patio ledge
directly in my view through the glass (with only five feet of
distance between us)! It was the largest and
most beautiful bird I have ever seen in my life! I paused for a
few moments just to take in the breathtaking beauty of this
striking bird with its plush, bright red crest on the top of its
head! I had never in my life ever seen such a bird, nor did I
know that it even existed.
For the past month or so I did notice
a flash of red on a bird flying through the trees which caught
my interest on several occasions, however, I could not make out anything more as the
rest of the bird was hidden from sight. I remembered asking God
if He could let me see this seemingly elusive bird with the red
crest. Well at this moment, I realized that God gave me my
request! I was looking directly at a "pileated woodpecker"
through the patio door glass, although at the time, I did not
have a clue as to what I was looking at (I learned this later
after some research).Anyway, I was so intrigued by this amazing
bird that I could not help but to put aside my paintbrush for a
few brief moments while I enjoyed the pileated woodpecker, like
a magnificent "rose" coming down from heaven. Thank you Jesus!
The pileated woodpecker stood there looking
directly at me for a few moments and then it looked down to
inspect the birdfeeder food choices.
Then he stared at me through the glass for a few moments longer
as if to say, "sorry but I don't like the food choices you
have on the menu." I was a little disappointed that he did not
like any of the foods I had available there. I figured he would
likely fly away at this point as a result of not finding any
food to his liking. However, instead, he kept looking at me for
several moments more so I could take in and enjoy his majestic
beauty! He seemed to be showing off, so adorable! Needless to say I was mesmerized and in awe of its
beauty! Considering I had never seen such an awesome and
gigantic bird with striking markings, the bird looked surreal, almost like a painting
or sculpture rather than a living creature! God's creations never cease to
amaze me that is for sure! The joy of the Lord's presence
through this bird filled my soul!
I became so absorbed with admiring this
bird's beauty and enjoying his antics that I almost forgot I had to
pick up the paintbrush right away to finish painting the trim
before the paint dried. Then I became a little sad thinking, I
can't take up any more of my time to continue watching the bird.
All of a sudden the magnificent bird stretched out its wings and
flew up to the top of the tall sunscreen that was next to the
bird feeding station. The bird hung upside down for awhile
behind the screen and then peaked its head out at me from the
side and looked straight at me again as if to say, "look at what
I can do" and "peekaboo, I see you." It was as if he was
playing a little game of hide and seek with me, so funny! What joy I felt engaging with this awesome creature made by God!
Now I will share a little bit
of what I found out when researching "Pileated Woodpeckers".
They are North America's largest woodpecker and one of the
biggest most striking forest birds, averaging 18" in length and
a wingspan of 28". Generally speaking, pileated woodpeckers are
wary and elusive, less likely feeder visitors, and in most
places they do not make a habit of visiting bird feeders - an
uncommon sight. I definitely feel blessed to have had this
opportunity!
Then after one last look at me through
the glass, the bird took off in flight. I was a little sad that
I could not have enjoyed him a little more, meaning, without the
pressure to finish painting the trim before the paint dried. I
meditated for a few moments longer on the wonder and beauty I
had just experienced with this most amazing creature.
I thought to myself, I have been so busy
lately working on the home renovations for the past year, that I
had little time for much of anything else. Therefore, I think
God wanted to surprise me with this pileated woodpecker, a
"single red rose". I think he also wanted to remind me to take
the time to "stop and smell the roses and to tell me, " this is
just a taste of heaven on earth"! Thank you Jesus!

Angel of God,
my guardian dear,
To whom God's love
commits me here,
Ever this day(night),
be at my side,
To light and guard,
Rule and guide.
Amen.
“From infancy to death human life is surrounded by their (the
angels) watchful care and intercession. Beside each believer
stands an angel as protector and shepherd leading him to life.
Already here on earth the Christian life shares by faith in the

The Door of "The Divine Mercy"Is Still Open!
"Come to Me, all of you." (Diary 1485)
During Holy Mass, I saw the Lord Jesus nailed
upon the cross amidst great torments. A soft moan issued from
His Heart.After some time, He said:
“I thirst. I thirst for the salvation of souls. Help Me, My
daughter, to save souls.” (Diary, 1032).

Divine Mercy In My Soul, Diary by St. Maria Faustina Kowalska
(right click to enlarge images)
"I have great reverence
for Saint Michael the Archangel; he had no example to follow in
doing the will of God, and yet he fulfilled God's will
faithfully." (Diary, 667)
"September 29, On
the Feast of St. Michael the Archangel, I saw by my side that
great Leader, who spoke these words to me: “The Lord has ordered me to take special care of you.
Know that you are hated by evil; but do not fear - 'Who is like
God!'"And he disappeared.
But I felt his presence and assistance." (Diary,706)
Something unexpectedly and interesting
happened today! A family friend came to our home to help with
some plumbing work. This family friend had not come to our home
for a couple of years, so it had been some time since I had
spoken to them. As the family friend was getting ready to leave,
I felt a sudden inspiration to tell them that I had something to
give them - even though Satan was infiltrating my mind at the
same moment and prior, telling me "Why bother giving it to this
person, you will only face more rejection?" The Holy Spirit's
prompting naturally won out without a doubt! My mind
jumped into "Jesus" mode and I quickly darted to my office room
to get the single website card that was tucked inside the frame
of another Divine Mercy Image hanging on the wall above my desk
(identical to the one I have on the foyer wall as I have
mentioned before). I always keep a single card handy there for
opportunities like these.
As I gave the family friend the website card,
I told them that I had received private revelation. The family
friend then proceeded to ask me to share my private revelation.
I responded by telling them to go on the website address noted
on the card, as my private revelation was published there.
By this point the family friend was standing just outside the
door and I was standing inside the foyer, just about to close
the door.
I must admit, it is a rather rare occurrence that anyone is
interested in learning about my private revelation regardless of
the certainty I have via the evidence God has so graciously
granted me (as discussed in my previous writings).
Normally the reactions I am use to experiencing are anywhere
from a blank stare, to discomfort or indifference with the worse
being, mockery, insult and contempt (with the odd comment, that
I am possessed by the devil even)! Not surprising though , as
just like St. Faustina and The Lord Himself did, this was
inevitable, that I too would face opposition! However,
this time, I had the strong feeling that this family friend
might be interested in at least hearing what I had to say. It is not just a
coincidence that this person is a parishioner at St. Michael's
Catholic Church (latin mass) in our
diocese and is a pro-life advocate. It is definitely a God Incidence - and this day just
happened to be April 29
- St. Michael's feast day is September 29!
Now comes the very interesting part! Out
of the blue, this family friend started telling me of their own
experience with The Divine Mercy that happened recently. They
went on to say that they had purchased the book,
"Divine Mercy
In My Soul (The Diary of St. Maria Faustina Helena Kowalska)
some time ago but hadn't had a chance to read it until recently.
Then when they went in search of it they could not find it, but
found another copy belonging to their mother that had passed
away about a year ago. I recalled that I had asked another
mutual friendto givethis family friend a gift
(St. Faustina's Diary) of appreciation, on my behalf, for the
tile work they had done previously for me approximately three or
four years ago, however, they stated that they did not remember
ever receiving it. I found that strange, but regardless, God
made sure they had a copy of the diary at this point in time.
It just goes to show that when God wants something accomplished,
He is in control and nothing will stand in the way of His will!
I think God wanted to reassure me of this fact and that He most
certainly did!
Also, recently at their parish church,
there is a yearly tradition in which they hold a draw out of
a hat in which each person gets to
pick out a "patron saint for the year".
Well, can you guess
which saint's name this family friend picked out of the hat?It was none other that St. Maria Faustina Helena Kowalska!
To top it off, this
family friend discovered that their birthdate is the same as
St. Faustina's - August 25th! Wow I thought, this is definitely not
a coincidence, especially considering the "God Incidences" I
discussed in previous writings, especially the discovery that my
own birthdate of
November 16 is the feast day of "The Mother of
Mercy" (Our Lady of Mercy at the Gate of Dawn Icon in Vilnius
Lithuania, The City of Mercy)!
At this point I couldn't help
myself, but to tell this person (in a nutshell) that I had had two
encounters with Jesus Christ in my parish church on
September 29
(St. Michael's Feast Day) and October 6 (St. Faustina's Feast
Day is October 5 commemorating the date of her death at 11:00 pm
in 1938 at the age of only 33), 2018.
After contemplating on what happened on this
particular day, the
29th
(especially the birth and feast dates in relation to The Divine
Mercy I just discussed in the paragraph above), it became ever more evident to me that we are all unique
human beings and that God has a plan for each one of us even
before we are even conceived in our mother's wombs. This makes
one realize even more, the dignity and worth of every single
human being from conception to death and that this culture of
death we are living in now has to stop or God will put an end to
it soon via further chastisement! After all, God is
offended and how much more "suffering and
murdered children" can he bear?! If
you look all around and you see what is going on, its as if we
are living in a "clown world" as one young adult once expressed
to me. God is clearly being mocked! God knows all things past, present and future. There is no time
as God
lives in the Glory of timeless Eternity!
"Be not
deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that
shall he also reap." (Galatians 6:7)
God is obviously very offended by the world
in its current situation whereby He is being mocked and
disobeyed to the point of which we are headed towards our own
self destruction due to sin and the resultant evil and suffering
being inflicted upon the most vulnerable of His children. It is
time for everyone to wake up and smell the coffee as the saying
goes. It appears that God's door of mercy is still open for the
time being. He is clearly warning us once again to reflect on the following
words of Jesus given to us through St. Faustina:
"Secretary of My mercy,
write, tell souls about this great mercy of Mine, because the
awful day, the day of My justice, is near." (Diary 965)
"Before I
come as the Just Judge, I am coming first as the King of Mercy.
Before the day of justice arrives, there will be given to people
a sign in the heavens of this sort: All light in the heavens
will be extinguished, and there will be great darkness over the
whole earth. Then the sign of the cross will be seen in the sky,
and from the openings where the hands and the feet of the
Saviour were nailed will come forth great lights which will
light up the earth for a period of time. This will take place
shortly before the last day." (Diary 83)
"Mankind will not have peace until it
turns with trust to My Mercy." (Diary 300)
"You will
prepare the world for My final coming." (Diary 429)
"(My daughter) Speak to the
world about My mercy; let all mankind recognize My unfathomable
mercy. It is a sign for the end times; after it will come the
day of justice. While there is still time, let them have
recourse to the fount of My mercy; let them profit from the
Blood and Water which gushed forth for them."
(Diary 848)
"Souls
perish in spite of My bitter Passion. I am giving them the last
hope of salvation; that is the Feast of My Mercy. If they will
not adore My mercy, they will perish for all eternity." (Diary
965)
"Write: before I come as a
just Judge, I first open wide the door of My mercy. He who
refuses to pass through the door of My mercy must pass through
the door of My justice…”(Diary
1146)
"…I am prolonging the time of
mercy for the sake of sinners. But woe to them if they do not
recognize this time of My visitation. My daughter, secretary of
My mercy, your duty is not only to write about and proclaim My
mercy, but also to beg for this grace for them, so that they too
may glorify My mercy.” (Diary 1160)
"In the Old Covenant I sent prophets wielding
thunderbolts to My people. Today I am sending you with My mercy
to the people of the whole world. I do not want to punish aching
mankind, but I desire to heal it, pressing it to My Merciful
Heart. I use punishment when they themselves force Me to do so;
My hand is reluctant to take hold of the sword of justice.
Before the Day of Justice I am sending the Day of Mercy."
(Diary 1588)
"...
the greater the misery of a soul, the greater
its right to My mercy; [urge] all
souls to trust in the unfathomable abyss of My mercy, because I
want to save them all.On the cross, the fountain of My mercy was
opened wide by the lance for all souls-no one have I excluded!"(Diary 1182)
" I
understood the great justice of God, how each one had to pay off
the debt to the last cent." (St. Faustina, Diary 1375)
"I adore You, Lord and Creator,
hidden in the Blessed Sacrament... You have spread so much
beauty over the earth, and it tells me about Your beauty, even
though these beautiful things are but a faint reflection of You,
Incomprehensible Beauty... my heart is completely immersed in
prayer of adoration" (Diary, 1692)
As Catholics, and especially as
members of Eucharistic Apostles of The Divine Mercy, we must
aspire to imitate the virtuous life of St. Faustina. In order to
accomplish this, we must take an active role in spreading the
Divine Mercy Message and Devotion which includes leading a
sacramental life, spreading appreciation for the gift of the
Eucharist and the sanctity of life, and living and doing the
spiritual and corporal works of mercy. Like St. Faustina, we may
also be called to suffer in this valley of tears. Yet we look
forward to being with our Merciful Savior and Merciful Mother,
and receiving our eternal reward in Heaven as promised by Jesus:
"Souls who spread the honor of My mercy I shield through their
entire lives as a tender mother her infant, and at the hour of
death I will not be a Judge for them, but the Merciful Savior"
(Diary, 1075). (Source: thedivinemercy.org)
It was to Saint Faustina Kowalska
(1905-1938), a simple, uneducated nun from Poland, that the Lord
chose to spread the Divine Mercy message and devotion. "My
daughter, be at peace; do as I tell you. Your thoughts are
united to My thoughts, so write whatever comes to your mind. You
are the secretary of My mercy. I have chosen you for that office
in this life and the next life. That is how I want it to be in
spite of all the opposition they will give you. Know that My
choice will not change" (Diary, 1605). (Source: thedivinemercy.org)

Pilate then said to Him,
"Are you refusing to speak to me? Surely you know I have power
to release you and I have power to crucify you?"
Jesus replied, "You would
have no power over Me at all if it had not been given you from
above; that is why the man who handed Me over to you has the greater
guilt." John 19:10-11
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for

"Truly

"I am the Way; I am Truth and
Life. No one can come to the Father except through Me." John 14:6
This past Thursday I had a most trying morning! The
devil was working overtime you could say. What made it even more
difficult was the fact that my young grandchild came to stay
with me for the last two days. I had to try real hard to put
each battle aside so that I would be able to maintain my peace
and joy so as to not upset my grandchild. Children are very
quick to pick up your true emotions and be affected by them.
The morning started with a disagreement with
a family member. Then after all the work put into making
pancakes for breakfast, I ended up burning mine, such that I had
to make a whole new batter. Next, as I reached into the honey
jar for a spoon of honey to mix into my green tea, I was
horrified to discover two black carpenter ants drowning in the
honey, yuk! I was so grossed out by this sight that I quickly
put the lid back on the jar, wrapped it up in a plastic bag and
threw it into the garbage can. I just couldn't figure out how
they could have gotten inside the jar. I drank the unsweetened
green tea anyway and it tasted horribly bitter as I expected it
would. What a awful way to start the day!
We spent the afternoon going for a walk,
reading, drawing and singing songs. My grandchild drew a most
interesting picture, all the while, singing the kid's lullaby I
taught them,
"Jesus Loves Me" in english and french (Jesus M'aime), so adorable!
On the right side of the paper she drew a
bright red and orange heart with a gold halo sitting on top.
Under this heart, my grandchild drew a smiling, happy child with the same bright colors. Beside
this happy child, my grandchild drew a picture of a lake with a point going
upward (towards heaven). On the left side my grandchild drew a
purple and blue heart with black horns on top and a black
squiggly line down the centre, signifying that it was broken.
Under this heart, my grandchild drew an angry, mean faced child in black.
Beside the angry child, my grandchild drew a picture
of a lake with a point going downward (hell). It was obvious
by this drawing that my grandchild has a strong awareness of
heaven and hell and the spiritual battle we are in, even at this
very young age and not yet at the age of reason). It was most
reassuring to see this. I also knew in my heart that I had made
the right choice instructing her in
this spiritual reality. This "fruit" of the afternoon was a most wonderful
blessing and more than made up for the wretched morning! Thank
you Jesus!
St. Paul The Apostle
(Saul)
St. Paul
is proof that God’s love and mercy is for us all, provided we are willing to receive it.
"I thank Christ Jesus our
Lord, who has given me strength. By calling me into his service
he has judged me trustworthy,
even though I used to be a blasphemer and a persecutor and
contemptuous. Mercy, however, was shown me, because while I
lacked faith I acted in ignorance; but the grace of our Lord
filled me with faith and with the love that is in Christ
Jesus.Here is a saying that you can rely on and nobody should
doubt: that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. I
myself am the greatest of them; and if mercy has been shown to
me, it is because Jesus Christ meant to make me the leading
example of his inexhaustible patience for all the other people
who were later to trust in him for eternal life." (St. Paul,
1 Timothy 1:12-16)
In the evening, after my grandchild left, I decided to lie
down and watch some television and then call it an early night
as I was feeling rather tired. I clicked on the youtube app and
the movie Paul The Apostle immediately caught my
attention so I decided to watch it. I just love the story of
St. Paul - The way Jesus lovingly and mercifully pursued St.
Paul as he was traveling by horseback on the road to Damascus,
to entrust him with a great mission. My own face to face
encounters with Jesus, while different, share some similarities
with St Paul's experience. In Ephesians 5, Paul identifies
Christ as the loving Bridegroom and the Church as Christ’s
beloved Bride. I find it so amazing and most endearing, the way
Jesus pursues His people - It is comparable to a loving marriage
relationship.
'Yahweh has appeared to me
from afar: "I have loved you with an everlasting love and so I
still maintain my faithful love for you."'(Jeremiah 31:3)
The next evening, I once again clicked on the
you tube app. This time the movie The Young Messiah
immediately caught my attention so I decided to watch it.
This happens to me a lot, in that God presents the viewing
material for me as soon as I click on the app. This
is one way the Holy Spirit communicates and inspires my heart
and soul.
“If you are out of
touch with God, you are out of touch with reality. To be out of
touch with reality is insanity. Have you wondered when you look
around you and see some of the things we have to witness today
in our country, in the world? It’s crazy, it’s insane. You evict
God , nature abhors a vacuum … it’s not going to be empty or
neutral. You want God out , evil will come in that’s an absolute
fact. The fact is, we are at war … a spiritual battle for souls
– not of the flesh – but the powers and principalities – tracing
back to the great battle in heaven." (St. Michael versus
Lucifer). Fr. John Corapi, SOLT,STD
St. Paul was a straight forward speaker in
that he was not afraid to speak the truth (St. Peter and many
others were the same way). He never pussy footed around
it! This quality is lacking in our church today in that many
church leaders and laity are more worried about their own
personal comfort and/or political correctness (people pleasers).
In essence the "Truth" (Jesus Christ and His word) is
being seriously compromised. If you look at the world situation
today, is not difficult to see that Christianity is quickly
being wiped off the map. It is getting to the point now that it
is getting very painful for "faithful" Christians (and
others not quite there yet) to live on this
planet.
"I urge you, brothers, be on
your guard against the people who are out to stir up
disagreements and bring up difficulties against the teaching
which you learnt. Avoid them. People of that sort are servants
not of our Lord Christ, but of their own greed; and with talk
that sounds smooth and reasonable they deceive the minds of the
unwary. Your obedience has become known to everyone, and I am
very pleased with you for it; but I should want you to be
learned only in what is good, and unsophisticated about all that
is evil. The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet.
The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you." (St.Paul, Romans
16:17-27)
As St. Paul said: "For our
wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against
principalities and powers, against the rulers of the world of
this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high
places." (Ephesians 6:12)
"But he that shall
scandalize one of these little ones that believe in Me, it were
better for him that a millstone should be hanged about his neck,
and that he should be drowned in the depth of the sea." (Matthew
18:6)
How can we live in the obedience, love, peace and hope of Christ
when "Catholic" institutions (schools, hospitals etc.) in
our society are disposing of Christ and His teachings and
uniting and or replacing them with secular ideologies? This is a
most devastating injustice to ourselves and our children
especially, which is a grave sin.
The False Notion of
Christian "Unity"
As Christians we are required
to love our neighbour and respect their
free will (as God does),
however, worldly ideologies that are contrary to the teachings
of Jesus Christ can never be deemed acceptable and become part
of our "new doctrine" for the sake of this false
notion of achieving "unity". Unity can never be achieved
under the circumstances. In the extreme case, would Christians
want to be united to and possess the same beliefs as satanists for
example?This is a situation in which "we
have to agree to disagree" with many of our fellow men, stand
firm in the gospels and pray that God will lead them to His
Grace and Truth.
Have you ever heard of the
"Unity Tree"? ...
well this is the replacement for the
"Christmas Tree"
in some societal institutions at Christmas time, need I say
more? This is only one example, of how the word "unity" is
actually a false notion (a lie) Satan's way of "throwing
in a bad apple, to spoil the rest of the apples in the barrel."
Unitarian Definition: "any system
advocating unity or centralization, as in government.
(Collins Dictionary)
"Unitarianism" and "Universalism" (branches of
Christianity) are clearly heresies as their ideologies are not
in line with the teachings of Jesus Christ:
Unitarianism (from
Latin unitas 'unity, oneness') is a Nontrinitarian branch of
Christianity. Unitarian Christians affirm the unitary nature of
God as the singular and unique creator of the universe, believe
that Jesus Christ was inspired by God in his moral teachings and
that he is the saviour of humankind, but he is not comparable or
equal to God himself. (Source:Wikipedia)
Universalism
is a school of Christian theology focused around the doctrine of
universal reconciliation – the view that all human beings will
ultimately be saved and restored to a right relationship with
God. The doctrine that all sinful and alienated human
souls—because of divine love and mercy—will ultimately be
reconciled to God. Apocatastasis is the restoration of
creation to a condition of perfection. In Christianity, it is a
form of Christian universalism that includes the ultimate
salvation of everyone—including the damned in hell and the
devil. (Source:Wikipedia)
True freedom
can only be achieved by doing the will of God as He
created us and therefore knows what's best for us.
Sin (whether that of our own or that of others) enslaves and
eventually destroys us. Fr. Ripperger has already
stated that we are currently experiencing "soft communism"and
that hard communism is around the corner which should frighten
us all! God's Word is Eternal and can never be compromised for if it is
we will eventually completely obliviate ourselves! The world
must repent now and return to God before it is too late!
"But he that shall
scandalize one of these little ones that believe in Me, it were
better for him that a millstone should be hanged about his neck,
and that he should be drowned in the depth of the sea."(Matthew
18:6)
While the movie "Sound of Freedom" focuses on the evil sex
trafficking of children, there are many other vulnerable people that are
being robbed of human dignity and freedom, including women, the
unborn, the newborn, the
elderly, the disabled, the sick, the poor, the dying, even
Christians etc.

So Pilate went back into the
Praetorium and called Jesus to him and asked him, 'Are you the
king of the Jews? Jesus replied, 'Do you ask this of your own accord, or have
others said it to you about me?' Pilate answered, 'Am I a Jew? It is your own people and the
chief priests who have handed you over to me: what have you
done?'
Jesus replied, 'Mine is not a kingdom of this world; if my
kingdom were of this world, my men would have fought to prevent
my being surrendered to the Jews. As it is, my kingdom does not
belong here. Pilate said, 'So, then you are a king?'
Jesus answered, 'It is you who say that
I am a king. I was born
for this, I came into the world for this, to bear witness to the
truth; and all who are on the side of truth listen to my voice.
(John 18:33-37)
The Jews gathered round him
and said, 'How much longer are you going to keep us in suspense?
If you are the Christ, tell us openly. Jesus replied: "I
have told you, but you do not believe. The works I do in My
Father's name are my witness; but you do not believe, because
you are no sheep of Mine.
The sheep that belong to
Me listen to my voice; I know them and they follow Me. I
give them eternal life; they will never be lost and no one will
ever steal them from My hand. The Father, for what he has given
Me, is greater than anyone, and no one can steal anything from
the Father's hand. The Father and I are one." The Jews
fetched stones to stone him.
(John 10:24-31)
"While he was still speaking, behold, a
bright cloud cast a shadow over them, - then from the cloud came
a voice that said,“This is My Beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased; listen to
Him.” (Transfiguration of
Jesus, Matthew 17:5)
"Descent,
disobedience, the kiss of death, the absolute kiss of death ...
Pride, disobedience, death." The operative word is ascent. We
have a positive moral obligation to give the ascent of faith to
church teaching not descent.

I
will end by telling you that I almost decided not to publish
this entry. It was at approximately 10 am, this past Friday
morning after I had updated the main page that I was getting
ready to pack it in when all of a sudden I heard a very piercing
and unceasing, mournful cry, which I instantly knew was coming
from a seagull. I quickly looked out of my office room window
and immediately spotted a huge seagull perched on the top of a
hydro pole straight across from the house. The seagull looked
straight at me and continued its cry for a few more moments,
bouncing up and down as if to "urge me on" and then suddenly
stopped and was silent. Then two more seagulls appeared, one on
each side of this seagull, hovering for a few moments and then
flew off. The very large seagull remained on the post and then
disappeared when I left the room to get my phone so I could call
a friend about what had just happened. I knew I was in the
presence of the Holy Trinity! I instantly knew God wanted to get
my attention to encourage me to publish this writing without any
further hesitation.
On Sunday
I continued to work on this entry. When I took a break to
pray The Divine Mercy Chaplet at The 3 O'clock hour on the
patio, contemplating this very tragic situation of God being
extinguished from our world (as I often do), I pleaded with God to "save us" as without divine
intervention it is becoming next to impossible to help
ourselves to turn things around. Suddenly, I saw a single seagull
flying right overtop of where I was sitting and then another. It
was very windy which would normally make it very difficult for
them to
fly, yet they both floated through with ease! These two birds
reminded me of the two seagulls that were hovering beside the
very large seagull crying from the top of the electrical pole
two days before. Once again, I felt the presence of God!
“Just as Moses lifted up
the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted

"And He saith to them: It
is written, My house shall be called the house of prayer; but
you have made it a den of thieves." (Matthew 21:13)
"Do not
suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth: it is not
peace I have come to bring, but a sword. For I have come to set
a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a
daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. A man’s enemies will
be those of his own household." (Matthew 10:34-26)
The above "image depicts an important and yet mis-understood
New Testament scene, Jesus flogging the money-changers out of
the temple. I selected it because the faith that gives us
consolation can also make us very uncomfortable.
Both Divine Mercy and
Divine Justice meet in Jesus. Priests are ministers of
reconciliation, but never at the cost of truth. In or out of
season, we must be courageous in preaching and living out the
Gospel of Life."(Fr. Joseph Jenkins)
“I am the
light of the world. Whoever follows Me will not walk in
darkness, but will have the light of life. (John 8:12)
Through the strong
inspiration of The Holy Spirit over the last several days, I
chose the above quote to begin this very important entry. I have
made a previous entry on this subject, however, the Lord placed
it on my heart to talk about it some more, especially with
TheSynod being held next month.
Among many religious and
laity these days, it seems that God's "Forgiveness" and "Mercy"
is overshadowing, or rather ignoring God's "Justice".
This makes for some very confusing times. That is why we need to
remind ourselves and each other to look to scripture and the
doctrine of the church to ensure we keep on the right path to
holiness and ultimately salvation for ourselves and others.
Pope John Paul II, Archbishop Fulton Sheen, Mother Angelica
were very keen on this subject. Fortunately, there are also several
others today, both religious and laity that are on the same page
as these very key figures in The Roman Catholic Church.
Some people believe that
"forgiveness" is equivalent to "reconciliation". From
this incorrect thinking follows the idea that "unforgiveness"
causes illness (physical, psychological, emotional, spiritual),
division and conflict. This couldn't be further from the
truth. Forgiveness does not necessarily mean reconciliation at
the cost of truth and reparation which is a requirement of justice.
The only situation where unforgiveness can make one sick is
when one refuses to let go of the injustice to the point of
seeking vengeance.
"Beloved, never avenge yourselves, but leave it to the wrath of
God, for it is written, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says
the Lord.” (Romans 12:19)
It is in fact, the"tolerance
of obstinate sin"(via people pleasing, political correctness, false
compassion, false sense of unity, false sense of peace etc) that
causes illness (physical, psychological, emotional, spiritual)
especially to the victims.
Additionally, it is the desire of some to control others, in
essence wanting to be God (by taking away the "God given free
will" of others) that leads to a very dehumanized, toxic world environment
(communism, totalitarianism).
Just ask the people that lived through the horrors of WW1 and
WW2. Rest assured though, God is in control! However, as the
Virgin Mary constantly reminds us, we need to repent and return
to God to avoid chastisement and WW3 (some people seem to think
it is already here)!
Many human beings these
days are most often treated like disposable biological organisms
or objects with zero regard for their divine essence or soul.Satan is clearly behind this agenda! Just ask the most
vulnerable people in our society today that have suffered at the
hands of others,
being robbed of freedom and human dignity including
children, women, the unborn, the newborn, the elderly, the disabled, the
sick, the poor, the dying, Christians etc. This global attack on
the dignity of human beings, children of God, made in the image
and likeness of God is most certainly a grave injustice and sin!
In
his encyclical Dives in Misericordia (November 30, 1980), Pope
John Paul II noted that the “requirement of forgiveness does not
cancel out the objective requirements of justice” . . . “Christ emphasizes so insistently the need to forgive others
that when Peter asked Him how many times he should forgive his
neighbour He answered with the symbolic number of "seventy times seven,"(Matthew 18:21-22) meaning that he must be able to
forgive everyone every time.
It is obvious that such a generous requirement of forgiveness
does not cancel out the objective requirements of justice.
Properly understood, justice constitutes, so to speak, the goal
of forgiveness.In no passage of the Gospel message does
forgiveness, or mercy as its source, mean indulgence towards
evil, towards scandals, towards injury or insult. In any case,
reparation for evil and scandal, compensation for injury, and
satisfaction for insult are conditions for forgiveness.”(DM, 14)
Keep in mind you are not showing the
abuser/unrepentant person love by acting like everything is okay
as that is a lie - and the chances of that person repenting is zero if
they figure the person is okay with it. Love is not enabling,
coddling or letting someone off the hook or it wouldn't really
be love at all. Forgiveness doesn't necessarily mean friendship.There are times when we
have to be prudent and choose not to reconcile with certain
people, but to love them from a distance (and pray for them) to prevent ourselves from
getting sick (keeping in mind that Satan is hurling his abuse
at us through these obstinate sinners). Admonishing sinners is a
spiritual work of mercy.
No one should ever be rushed into forgiveness
for the "fear of getting right with God". We need healthy
boundaries. We need to recognize patterns of unrepentant abuse
which often hides itself via gaslighting,
passive aggression, narcissism and manipulative language that will only
guilt-trip you back into a vicious cycle. We can never
mindlessly open the door again on an abusive relationship with
an obstinate sinner.
Remember Jesus Himself
teaches us that there is a condition for forgiveness, "Go and
sin no more." (John 8:11)
Fr. Chris Alar, MIC
states: "Forgiveness Does Not
Necessarily Mean Reconciliation ..." Forgiveness simply means
you let go, you wish them well, you don't have to reconcile but
if you do reconcile you have elevated yourself up to mercy.
Mercy is actually greater than forgiveness." What Does
Forgive Really Mean? - Fr. Chris Alar, MIC and Pope John Paul II
Mother Angelica explains that "false
compassion is very rampant in the world today. It is the pit of
hell!Basically, grave sinners are given compassion over those
that are suffering at the sinners' hands. False
Compassion - What is it? Why it stinks! - Mother Angelica
"Therefore I say to you: Every sin and blasphemy
shall be forgiven men, but the blasphemy of the Spirit shall
not be forgiven. And whosoever shall speak a word
against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but he
that shall speak against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be
forgiven him, neither in this world, nor in the world to
come. Either make the tree good and its fruit good: or make
the tree evil, and its fruit evil. For by the fruit the tree
is known. O generation of vipers, how can you speak good
things, whereas you are evil? for out of the abundance of
the heart the mouth speaketh. A good man out of a good
treasure bringeth forth good things: and an evil man out of
an evil treasure bringeth forth evil things. (Matthew
12:31-35)
[31] "The blasphemy of the Spirit": The sin
here spoken of is that blasphemy, by which the Pharisees
attributed the miracles of Christ, wrought by the Spirit of
God, to Beelzebub the prince of devils. Now this kind of sin
is usually accompanied with so much obstinacy, and such
wilful opposing the Spirit of God, and the known truth, that
men who are guilty of it, are seldom or never converted: and
therefore are never forgiven, because they will not repent.
Otherwise there is no sin, which God cannot or will not
forgive to such as sincerely repent, and have recourse to
the keys of the church. (Douay Rheims Bible, Footnotes by
Bishop Richard Challoner, 1749-52)
Obstinacy in sin is one
of six sins against the Holy Spirit and can only be absolved by
a priest when the obstinacy in sin stops and the sinner is truly
ready to amend his way of obstinacy.
According to Catholic
teaching, the fundamental condition for receiving forgiveness is
repentance founded on supernatural love for God, sometimes
called perfect contrition. (When repentance is based on
something less perfect, such as the fear of punishment, then it
is called imperfect contrition.)*
The Catechism of the
Catholic Church (CCC), reiterating the solemn teachings of the
Council of Trent, describes contrition as follows:
Among the penitent's
acts contrition occupies first place. Contrition is “sorrow of
the soul and detestation for the sin committed, together with
the resolution not to sin again” (quotation from the Council of
Trent, Denzinger-Schönmetzer [DS] 1676). (1451)
When it arises from a love by which God is loved above all else,
contrition is called “perfect” (contrition of charity). Such
contrition remits venial sins; it also obtains forgiveness of
mortal sins if it includes the firm resolution to have recourse
to sacramental confession as soon as possible. (See DS 1677.)
(1452)
Regarding the question of obstinacy, when a person commits a
grave sin (also called a mortal sin), that very action is
incompatible with having God’s grace in his soul. One of mortal
sin’s effects, therefore, is to destroy our capacity to love God
supernaturally—in other words, after sinning gravely, we are
incapable of exercising charity. (See CCC 1855.) Such a sin is
called “mortal” precisely because it renders the soul
spiritually dead.
But as explained above,
perfect contrition entails an exercise of charity; therefore,
mortal sin would leave us permanently separated from God if He
did not intervene in order to rescue us. When a person is moved
to repentance, therefore, it is because God moves him to act—the
unaided sinner is incapable of true repentance.
It is, however, always
within our power to reject God’s action in our soul. It is
possible for us to remain attached to our sin, and to refuse to
repent. This refusal to cooperate with God, by definition, is
what obstinacy consists in.
Without repentance, of
course, forgiveness is impossible. God will not force His grace
into our souls if we do not want it.
Of course, once the
obstinacy ceases, and we are willing at least to take the first
steps toward repentance (beginning, usually, with imperfect
contrition, which, with the help of God, blossoms into perfect
contrition), then forgiveness becomes possible.
(For Catholics,
Orthodox, and other churches that retain all seven sacraments,
the ordinary way to obtain that forgiveness is through the
Sacrament of Reconciliation. In fact, one of the effects of this
sacrament is to transform imperfect contrition into perfect
contrition, should that be necessary. See CCC 1453.)"

What Are The Sins
Against The Holy Spirit?
The concept of “blasphemy against the Spirit” is mentioned in
Mark 3:22-30 and Matthew 12:22-32 and Luke 12:10. There are six
ways that we can sin against the Holy Spirit:
1) Despair,
"By despair, we cease to hope for our personal salvation from
God, for help in attaining it or for the forgiveness of our
sins. Despair is contrary to God's goodness, to his justice -
for the Lord is faithful to his promises and to his mercy." (CCC
# 2091)
(2) Presumption of God's mercy,
"There are two kinds of presumption. Either we presume upon our
own capacities, (hoping to be able to save ourselves without
help from God), or we presumes upon God's almighty power or His
mercy (hoping to obtain his forgiveness without conversion and
glory without merit)." (C.C.C. # 2092)
(3) Watering down the known truth
To water down the known truth means to weaken it by making all
religious truths subjective (claiming that there is no objective
truth), to attack it by word or argument, to resist it, to
contradict it, or even to oppose the known truth or to challenge
it as false.
(4) Envy the spiritual good of another
Regarding the gifts of the Holy Spirit, the First Letter of Paul
to the Corinthians states, "All these are activated by one and
the same Spirit, who allots to each one individually as the
Spirit chooses." To envy the spiritual good of another is to
question the Divine judgment of the Holy Spirit in His
distribution of spiritual gifts. It is to be jealous of another
person who has a gift different than one's own gift. Through
envy, one rejects the gift that they have received from the Holy
Spirit, determining in their own minds that the gift they have
received is not good enough for them and they want someone
else's gift.
(5) Obstinacy in sin
To be "obstinate" means to resist the sanctifying power of the
Holy Spirit, to be stubborn, to persist in sin, to be
unyielding.
(6) Final impenitence
"Impenitence" means to be uncontrite, unrepentant, hardened,
unconverted, to be without regret, shame or remorse.
(Source:
St. Joseph the Worker, Companion to the Holy Bible)
Obstinacy in sin is a
refusal to change or to repent even after receiving the
illumination and assistance of the Holy Spirit.
The Gospel and the
living Church has made it abundantly clear what is right and
wrong, but such sinners do not care. They will not budge. They
may even celebrate their sins. They continue in error by
corrupting moral truths as relative and purely subjective. God
commands one thing and they do another. They are literally
saying to God with each transgression, “I will NOT obey! I will
do as I will, not as you will!” While the Blessed Mother said
YES to God for all humanity at her annunciation; these obstinate
sinners cry out a damning, “No!”
While there is mortal
life there remains hope. But little room is given to knock down
the wall between such sinners and the Lord. Our Lord would give
them the medicine of his sacraments and grace but they would
prefer to remain in their spiritual sickness— addicted to all
that will destroy them.
There can be a terrible
irrationality contaminating the minds of such fallen believers.
They adopt twisted criteria for their moral judgments. A number
of these have become cliché. “If it feels good, do it.” “Do
whatever you will.” “Everyone is doing it so it must be okay.”
“Who are you to tell me what to do?” “I am not a slave to my
biology!” Sin drives a wedge between the person and God as well
as with his Church. Justification for evil results in attacks
against the Church as hypocritical or the teachings as
antiquated and not reasonable for so-called “enlightened” modern
people. Pastors and others seeking to live by traditional values
often have both their credulity and patience strained by such
dissenters. While the Church has often debated against competing
values and ethical standards, it is almost impossible to wage a
constructive dialogue with those who have no moral system at
all. What is at stake in this conflict is more than how one
behaves but the very question of salvation. If anyone should
doubt this then we should be mindful of what the Lord has
revealed through his apostle, St. Paul:
"Do you not know
that the unjust will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not
be deceived; neither fornicators nor idolaters nor
adulterers nor prostitutes nor sodomites nor thieves nor
the greedy nor drunkards nor slanderers nor robbers will
inherit the kingdom of God. That is what some of you used to
be; but now you have had yourselves washed, you were
sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus
Christ and in the Spirit of our God.” (1 Corinthians
6:9-11)."
(Source:Fr. Joseph
Jenkins, bloggerpriest.com)
"The fear of the Lord is
the beginning of wisdom: and the knowledge of the holy is
prudence." (Proverbs 9:10)
"There
shall not enter into it (Heaven) any thing defiled, or that
worketh abomination or maketh a lie, but they that are written
in the book of life of the Lamb." (Revelation, 21:27)
“And you
shall call upon Me, and you shall go: and you shall pray to Me,
and I will hear you. You shall seek Me, and shall find Me: when
you shall seek Me with all your heart. And I will be found by
you, saith the Lord: and I will bring back from your captivity,
and I will gather you out of all nations, and from all the
places to which I have driven you out, saith the Lord: and I
will bring you back from the place to which I caused you to be
carried away captive.” (Jeremiah 29:12-14)
Do you not realise that
your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, who is in you and
whom you received from God? You are not your own property, then;
you have been bought at a price. So use your body for the glory
of God." (1 Corinthians 6:19-20)
“Be sober and watch:
because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, goeth about
seeking whom he may devour.”

"You may
be quite sure that in the last days there are going to be some
difficult times. People will be self-centred and grasping;
boastful, arrogant and rude; disobedient to their parents,
ungrateful, irreligious; heartless and unappeasable; they will
be slanderers, profligates, savages and enemies of everything
that is good; they will be treacherous and reckless and demented
by pride, preferring their own pleasure to God. They will keep
up the outward appearance of religion but will have rejected the
inner power of it. Have nothing to do with people like that.
(2 Timothy 3:1-5)
"I urge
you, brothers, be on your guard against the people who are out
to stir up disagreements and bring up difficulties against the
teaching which you learnt. Avoid them. People of that sort are
servants not of our Lord Christ, but of their own greed; and
with talk that sounds smooth and reasonable they deceive the
minds of the unwary. Your obedience has become known to
everyone, and I am very pleased with you for it; but I should
want you to be learned only in what is good, and unsophisticated
about all that is evil. The God of peace will soon crush Satan
under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with
you." (Romans 16:17-27)

justice of God, how each one had to pay off the debt to the last

St. Pope John Paul II
Lately I have been deeply contemplating the events of October 7
and October 13, 2023 and it is now more obvious to me than ever,
that they are not coincidences, but
rather part of "The Signs Of The Times" we have been
experiencing for quite some time now. Fortunately many
other enlightened individuals, both religious, laity and mystics
share my view, otherwise I might truly feel as though I had lost
my mind by now! These other enlightened souls as
mentioned throughout the website have been most
supportive and comforting over these last several, very
difficult years I have had. For this I feel blessed and so
grateful to God. While I have been blessed with the
extraordinary special grace of having received private
revelations, they have come to me at the great price of ongoing
intense sufferings which most people do not understand and that
is why I often take comfort in The Saints, especially St. Faustina
(whom I call my sister), The Virgin Mary and Our Lord Jesus.
Suffering has great redemptive value and has a way of drawing
you closer to Jesus and to grow in mercy, if you accept the
grace. I now have a most profound understanding of how we will
be judged by "our works of mercy" in this world. Hence, in union
with The Holy Spirit, "The Divine Mercy" I am making this entry.
Mary and Jesus'
Did Not Choose The "Easy Way" - They Made Great Sacrifices and
Experienced Great Suffering During Their Lifetimes. As
Christians we are called to walk in their footsteps.
It
is not easy being a Christian in the true sense of the word.Suffering, which is unavoidable in this life, is necessary for
Christians to attain eternal glory.
On
May 15th, 1982, Kibeho, Africa,
Mary said to her visionaries,
“No one will reach heaven without
suffering,”
Suffering is both a means of compensating
for the sins of the world and participating in Jesus’ and Mary’s
sufferings for the salvation of the world. The visionaries were
invited through this address to live very specifically,
accepting suffering through faith in love, mortifying themselves
and denying themselves pleasures for the conversion of the
world.
"Our Lady Of Kibeho" (Our Lady Of Sorrows Of Kibeho)
is a reminder of the role of the cross in the life of a
Christian and the Church.
The mystery of suffering will not be
completely understood, at least not in this life, however we can
take heart in the fact that Our God alone is The God Of The
Cross.
Jesus Of The Scars by
Edward Shillito
If
we have never sought, we seek Thee now;
Thine eyes burn through the dark, our only
stars;
We must have sight of thorn-pricks on Thy
brow,
We must have Thee, O Jesus of the Scars.
The heavens frighten us; they are too calm;
In all the universe we have no place.
Our wounds are hurting us; where is the
balm?
Lord Jesus, by Thy Scars, we claim Thy
grace.
If, when the doors are shut, Thou drawest
near,
Only reveal those hands, that side of Thine;
We know today what wounds are, have no fear,
Show us Thy Scars, we know the countersign.
The other gods were strong; but Thou wast
weak;
They rode, but Thou didst stumble to a
throne;
But to our wounds only God’s wounds can
speak,
And not a god has wounds, but Thou alone.
When
I think back to 2018 (and prior) and specifically to my private
revelations (face to face encounters with Jesus Christ) our
secularized world appeared to be "normal" for many people, although not for
me - the same feeling I had as a child slowly creeped back into
my thoughts that "there is something
wrong with this world." The realization that God was being
evicted from our world and being replaced by satan was becoming
ever so obvious through my own personal life experiences and my
private revelations of St. Michael and Jesus. I felt no peace
whatsoever!
Now with the global events of covid
19, The Russia-Ukraine War and now the war in The Holy Land of
Israel (signs of the times), I think many people have
become aware that something is most definitely "wrong with this
world" as there is no peace, as the threat of World War
III is looming over our heads
(Chastisement). Therefore, I no longer feel so alone (nor crazy)
with my thinking over the last sixteen years of my life.
The Holy Spirit was indeed preparing me for my mission during
these times.
Unfortunately, many people do not understand why our
world has become so evil nor how to solve this global state of
oppression the human race is now facing. Sin indeed
makes us dumb, thus darkening the mind, heart and soul.Evil
and sin, in many cases has been "normalized" and therefore
accepted by many. Well, by the grace of God, many of us do
know that sin, whether our own or that of others is the reason.
Jesus Christ's Love and Mercy is the
only remedy.The whole world must repent, return to and
listen to God,
Christ The King as It is only He that can fix this disordered
mess of a world we are living in today! However, it is up
to us to surrender to The King of Hearts and invite Him to reign
in our hearts and our lives.
"On these grounds is sentence pronounced:
that though the light has come into the world men have shown
they prefer darkness to the light because their deeds were evil.
And indeed, everybody who does wrong hates the light and avoids
it, for fear his actions should be exposed; but the man who
lives by the truth comes out into the light, so that it may be
plainly seen that what he does is done in God." (John 3:19-21)
“I am the light of the
world. Whoever follows Me will not walk in darkness, but will
have the light of life.
(John 8:12)
"For a child is born to
us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his
shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty
God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace." Isaiah 9:6-7
"Mankind will not have
peace until it turns with trust to My mercy.” (Diary,
300)
"Be not deceived; God is
not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also
reap." (Galatians 6:7)
Pope Pius XI instituted the Feast of
Christ the King in his encyclical
Quas Primas of 1925, in response to growing secularism and
nationalism:
"It has long been a common custom
to give to Christ the metaphorical title of "King,"
because of the high degree of perfection whereby he excels all
creatures. So he is said to reign "in the hearts of men,"
both by reason of the keenness of his intellect and the extent
of his knowledge, and also because he is very truth, and it is
from him that truth must be obediently received by all mankind.
He reigns, too,in the wills of men, for in him
the human will was perfectly and entirely obedient to the Holy
Will of God, and further by his grace and inspiration he so
subjects our free-will as to incite us to the most noble
endeavors. He is King of hearts, too, by reason of
his "charity which exceedeth all knowledge."And his
mercy and kindness which draw all men to him, for never has it
been known, nor will it ever be, that man be loved so much and
so universally as Jesus Christ. But if we ponder this matter
more deeply, we cannot but see that the title and the power of
King belongs to Christ as man in the strict and proper sense
too. For it is only as man that he may be said to have received
from the Father "power and glory and a kingdom,"since the
Word of God, as consubstantial with the Father, has all things
in common with him, and therefore has necessarily supreme and
absolute dominion over all things created." (Pope Pius XI,
Quas Primas, 7)
"When once men
recognize, both in private and in public life, that Christ is
King, society will at last receive the great blessings of real
liberty, well-ordered discipline, peace and harmony." (Pope Pius
XI, Quas Primas, 19)
“DeChristianization leads to Dehumanization.”
“If you are out of
touch with God, you are out of touch with reality. To be out of
touch with reality is insanity. Have you wondered when you look
around you and see some of the things we have to witness today
in our country, in the world? It’s crazy, it’s insane. You evict
God , nature abhors a vacuum … it’s not going to be empty or
neutral. You want God out , evil will come in that’s an absolute
fact. The fact is, we are at war … a spiritual battle for souls
– not of the flesh – but the powers and principalities – tracing
back to the great battle in heaven." (St. Michael versus
Lucifer). Fr. John Corapi, SOLT,STD
Christ's Healing Mission Is Becoming Extinct - His teachings of Love
and Mercy Are Being Ignored - Man Has Chosen To Be His Own God. Man has
decided who gets to live, die, or be healed, etc The voices of
the unborn, the suffering, the sick, the dying, etc are most
often not being heard, often falling on deaf ears!
Do the words, Oppression, Socialism, Communism, Totalitarianism,
Nazism come to mind? Does this not remind you of Satan's words?
"And thou saidst in thy
heart: I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above
the stars of God, I will sit in the mountain of the covenant, in
the sides of the north. I will ascend above the height of the
clouds, I will be like the most High." ( Prophecy of Isaias
(Isaiah) 14:13-14)
If you look around you, it
is easy to see, that many human hearts have become hardened.
Jesus was The Great Physician. He embraced
and helped the outcasts, the suffering, the most vulnerable people in society - the poor,
the sick, women, the dying etc.
Today abortion of unwanted and disabled
children is acceptable. The killing of the sick, the
disabled and the elderly is becoming acceptable. Puberty
Blockers and Gender Reassignment Surgery (body altering and
mutilation) especially of children is acceptable -The
literature shows that many that have undergone these unnatural
procedures become suicidal. Sick patients are turned away by
healthcare providers who want to deal with healthy, easy
patients. Basically man would rather
turn their back on Christianity - Jesus who represents,
the ultimate Sacrifice and Suffering - His throne was The Cross!
"Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy."
(Matthew 5:7)
"Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of
these brothers and sisters of Mine, you did for Me." (Mathew
25:40)
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth,
that shall he also reap." (Galatians 6:7)
In essence Man "cherry picks" who gets to
live, die and be healed. Jesus was not a "cherry picker"!
Every Human Being in this world is a loved and cherished Child
of God and it is God's clear expectation that each and every
human being will be treated as such.
“You created my inmost
self, knit me together in my mother's womb. ” (Psalms 139:13)
We are held responsible for what we have. If
we have been blessed with talents, wealth, knowledge, time, etc,
it is expected that we benefit others.
"But someone who does
not know, and then does something wrong, will be punished only
lightly. When someone has been given much, much will be required
in return; and when someone has been entrusted with much, even
more will be required." (Luke 12:48)
As Christians, we are
obliged to obey The Ten Commandments of God, with the greatest
being, the First and Second Commandments. If we truly love God,
we will love our neighbours also and want the absolute best for
them, most importantly heaven.
"He that hath my commandments, and keepeth
them; he it is that loveth me. And he that loveth me, shall be
loved of my Father: and I will love him, and will manifest
myself to him." (John 14:21)
"You shall not kill."
(Deuteronomy 5:6-21)
"See now that I, even I, am
He; there is no God besides Me. I kill and I make alive; I wound
and I heal; and no one can deliver from My hand." (Deutoronomy
32:39)
"The LORD kills and
brings to life; he brings down to Sheol and raises up."
1 Samuel 2:6
The Two Great Commandments of Jesus:
"Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with
thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind. This is the greatest
and the first commandment.
And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as
thyself. On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and
the prophets." (Douay Rheims Bible, Matthew 22:37-40)
Many human beings these
days are most often treated like disposable biological organisms
or objects with zero regard for their divine essence or soul. God's Moral Law is being disobeyed. Satan is clearly behind this agenda! Just ask the most
vulnerable people in our society today that have suffered at the
hands of others,
being robbed of freedom and human dignity including
children, women, the unborn, the newborn, the elderly, the disabled, the
sick, the poor, the dying, Christians etc. This global attack on
the dignity and worth of human beings, children of God, made in the image
and likeness of God is most certainly a grave injustice and sin!
Our Secular World has become Godless. God's Moral Law and The
Commandments have been thrown out the window. Our secular world
is beginning to resemble Adolf Hitler's Nazi Germany - A
Merciless culture of Cruelty and Death.
In 2021, a reported 87,485 ab@rtions took
place in Canada.
"They too are so often
victims of a cop-out by men and an exploitative industry,
victims of an evasive, aborting society which provides women
with little real freedom and information on this issue, and
offers abortion as an 'easy way out'
with no alternatives.'" - Fr. Anthony Fisher, OP
In 2022, 13,241 people
died under Canada's medical assistance in dying (MAD)
provisions, bringing the total number of MAD deaths in Canada
since 2016 to 44,958, according to Health Canada's fourth annual
report on MAD deaths. (PAS - Physician Assisted Suicide)
Hospitalizations and day
surgery visits for gender reassignment surgery have risen
sharply, from 536 in 2018-19, to 985 in fiscal 2022-23
(bilateral mastectomies procedure alone), according to data
compiled for National Post by the Canadian Institute for Health
Information.
"Physician-Assisted Suicide Distorts the Doctor– Patient
Relationship. Physician-assisted suicide
will not only corrupt the professionals who practice medicine,
but also affect the patients because
it threatens to fundamentally distort the doctor – patient
relationship, greatly reducing patients’ trust
of doctors and doctors’ undivided commitment to the healing of
their patients."
"Assisting in suicide will often be a more
“cost-effective” measure from the perspective of the bottom line
than is actually caring for patients."
"Baroness Mary Warnock,
a leading ethicist in the United Kingdom, has argued, “If you’re
demented,you’re wasting people’s lives - your family’s live -
and you’re wasting the resources of the National Health
Service.” Warnock went on to suggest that such people have a
“duty to die."
"Some doctors cherry pick
their new patients and may not accept older patients,
particularly ones with more complex health needs." (The Globe
and Mail, August, 8, 2022)
"As
Adolf Hitler consolidated his power at home in anticipation of
war, he moved not only against
Jews, Sinti, and Roma but also against those Aryans whom he
considered “unworthy of
life”—people with epilepsy, alcoholism, birth defects, hearing
loss, mental illnesses, and
personality disorders, as well as those who had vision loss or
developmental delays or who even
suffered from certain orthopedic problems. Hitler viewed them as
“marginal human beings” who
had to make a case for their own survival at a time when the
nation was preparing for war.
The first to be eliminated were too young to speak on their own
behalf. In fall 1938, the parents
of a severely disabled infant petitioned Hitler for the right to
kill their child. He granted the
petition and saw in the request an opportunity to encourage what
he called “mercy killings” or
“euthanasia.”
"The following spring,
Hitler set up a committee of physicians to prepare for the
murder of
mentally and physically disabled children. Known as the Reich
Committee for the Scientific
Treatment of Severe Hereditary and Congenital Diseases, the
group was told to keep its mission
secret. In August 1939, just two weeks before the invasion of
Poland, committee members asked
doctors and midwives to fill out a questionnaire that would
identify children born with various
deformities or disabilities. Initially, the focus was on
children under the age of three. The
committee claimed it was using the information “to clarify
certain scientific questions.” In fact, it
was used to determine which children would be allowed to live."
In addition to the use
of drugs, victims were murdered by a variety of other methods,
including
poisoning, starvation, being left to die of exposure in unheated
buildings, and gassing.
The operation was later expanded to include not only children
but also teens and adults, and it
was given the codename “T-4.” One “euthanasia expert” excused
the murders by arguing: “The
idea is unbearable to me that the best, the flower of our youth,
must lose its life at the front, in
order that feebleminded and asocial elements can have a secure
existence in the asylum.”
Another suggested that a physician’s duty is to rescue the “fit”
for the future by weeding out the
“unfit” in the present."
"Doctors were never
ordered to murder psychiatric patients and handicapped children.
They were empowered to do so, and fulfilled that task without
protest, often on their own
initiative. Hitler’s original memo . . . was not an order, but
an empowerment, granting
physicians permission to act."
"By August 24,1941, when
the first phase of this ‘adult operation’ was brought to an end,
over 70,000 patients from more than one hundred German hospitals
had been killed.”
The
Honorable Archbishop Futon J. Sheen made the following
insightful statements in regards to Suffering:
"America it is said,
is suffering from intolerance - it is not. It is suffering from
tolerance. Tolerance of right and wrong, truth and error, virtue
and evil, Christ and chaos. Our country is not nearly so overrun
with the bigoted as it is overrun with the broadminded."
"Some will not look
on suffering because it creates responsibility."
"I wonder maybe if
our Lord does suffer more from our indifference, than He did
from the crucifixion."
"There
is nothing more tragic in all the world than wasted pain. Think
of how much suffering there is in hospitals and among the poor
and the bereaved. Think also of how much of that suffering goes
to waste! How many of those lonesome, suffering, abandoned,
crucified souls are saying with Our Lord at the moment of
consecration, "This is my body. Take it."
"Suffering
is the greatest treasure on earth; it purifies the soul. In
suffering, we learn who is our true friend." (St. Faustina,
Diary 342)
"Suffering
is a great grace; through suffering the soul becomes like the
Saviour; in suffering love becomes crystallized; the greater the
suffering, the purer the love. (Jesus Christ, Diary 57)
"Those who are like Me in the pain and contempt they suffer will
be like Me also in glory. And those who resemble Me less in pain
and contempt will also bear less resemblance to Me in glory."
(Jesus
Christ, Diary 446)

scandalize one of these little ones that believe in Me, it were
better for him that a millstone should be hanged about his neck,
and that he should be drowned in the depth of the sea."(Matthew

I must say that Heaven (The
Virgin Mary, St. Michael and the angels, the saints, and Jesus
Christ) has taught me that Exorcist Priests are my best sources
to get to know my enemy (your enemy too) Satan! The greatest
weapons you have against Satan is truth (Jesus Christ) and the
knowledge He gives you (via prayer and grace). You can't fight
in this spiritual battle we are in if you don't believe the
enemy exists nor can you win the war if you don't have knowledge
of your enemy. Here are recent videos that help to remind us of
this and the fact that all souls are at risk of
never seeing heaven if we refuse to do the will of God
(disobedience). I highly recommend the following videos. Hope
you find them informative and useful.

On a certain occasion, the Lord said to
me, "I am more deeply wounded by the small imperfections
of chosen souls than by the sins of those living in the
world. It made me very sad that chosen souls make Jesus
suffer, and Jesus told me, These little imperfections are
not all. I will reveal to you a secret of My Heart: what I
suffer from chosen souls. Ingratitude in return for so many
graces is My Heart's constant food, on the part of [such] a
chosen soul. Their love is lukewarm, and My Heart cannot
bear it; these souls force Me to reject them. Others
distrust My goodness and have no desire to experience that
sweet intimacy in their own hearts, but go in search of Me,
off in the distance, and do not find Me. This distrust of My
goodness hurts Me very much. If My death has not convinced
you of My love, what will? Often a soul wounds Me mortally,
and then no one can comfort Me. They use My graces to offend
Me. There are souls who despise My graces as well as all the
proofs of My love. They do not wish to hear My call, but
proceed into the abyss of hell. The loss of these souls
plunges Me into deadly sorrow.
God though I am, I
cannot help such a soul because it scorns Me; having a free
will, it can spurn Me or love Me. You, who are the
dispenser of My mercy, tell all the world about My goodness,
and thus you will comfort My Heart." (Diary 580)
Let us reflect on the
Lord's pierced heart and call upon His mercy on behalf of
sinners saying, "O Blood and Water, which gushed forth from
the Heart of Jesus as a fount of Mercy for us, I trust in You."

Christmas Hallelujah
I just love this new song given to me
recently through the grace of The Holy Spirit - it is a
wonderful reflection on the birth and death of Jesus Christ so I
thought I would share it with you here. It is not just for
Christmas as it may appear by the video title. It is a
karaoke version with lyrics so you can sing along using your own
voice. The last verse of this song in particular, deeply touched
my heart and soul and invoked my own motherly instincts! I am
sure most mothers will experience the same.

Last Verse of
Christmas Hallelujah
I know You came to rescue me
This baby boy would grow to be
A man and one day die for me and you
My sins would drive the nails in You
That rugged cross was my cross, too
Still every breath You drew was Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Jesus, from Your birth to
death "Still every breath You drew was HALLELUJAH!"
Thank you JESUS!
An Easter
Hallelujah
A crown of thorns
placed on His head
He knew that He would soon be dead
He said did you forget me Father did you?
They nailed Him to a wooden cross
Soon all the world would feel the loss
Of Christ the King before His Hallelujah
(Chorus)
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
He hung His head and prepared to die
Then lifted His face up to the sky
Said I am coming home now Father to you
A reed which held His final sip
Was gently lifted to his lips
He drank His last and gave His soul to glory
(Chorus)
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
The soldier who had used his sword
To pierce the body of our Lord
Said truly this is Jesus Christ our Saviour
He looked with fear upon his sword
Then turned to face his Christ and Lord
Fell to his knees crying Hallelujah
(Chorus)
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Took from his head the thorny crown
And wrapped him in a linen gown
And laid him down to rest inside the tomb
The holes in his hands, his feet and side
Now in our hearts we know he died
To save us from ourselves oh hallelujah
(Chorus)
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
Three days went by again they came
To move the stone to bless the slain
With oil and spice anointing hallelujah
But as they went to move the stone
They saw that they were not alone
But Jesus Christ has risen Hallelujah
(Chorus)
Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah Hallelujah
"I am the Way; I am
Truth and Life. No one can come to the Father except through
me." (John 14:6)
"Go, therefore, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing
them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy
Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you.
And behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age."
(Matthew 28:19-20)
The
following are the two greatest commandments of Jesus.
Thou
shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy
whole soul, and with thy whole mind. This is the greatest and
the first commandment.
And
the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as
thyself. On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and
the prophets. (Matthew 22:3-40)
In the
following gospel, Jesus tells us about Love and Mercy. He also
tells us what we must do to possess Eternal Life.
“… Master, what
must I do to possess eternal life? But he said to him: What is
written in the law? how readest thou? He answering, said: 'Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and
with thy whole soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy
mind: and thy neighbour as thyself.' And he said to him:
Thou hast answered right: this do, and thou shalt live. But he
willing to justify himself, said to Jesus: And who is my
neighbour? And Jesus answering, said: A certain man went down
from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among robbers, who also
stripped him, and having wounded him went away, leaving him half
dead.
And it chanced, that a certain priest went down the same way:
and seeing him, passed by. In like manner also a Levite, when he
was near the place and saw him, passed by. But a certain
Samaritan being on his journey, came near him; and seeing him,
was moved with compassion. And going up to him, bound up
his wounds, pouring in oil and wine: and setting him upon his
own beast, brought him to an inn, and took care of him. And the
next day he took out two pence, and gave to the host, and said:
Take care of him; and whatsoever thou shalt spend over and
above, I, at my return, will repay thee. 'Which of these three, in thy opinion, was neighbour to him
that fell among the robbers?' But he said: 'He that
shewed mercy to him. And Jesus said to him: Go,
and do thou in like manner.' (Luke 10:25-37)

be required of the person entrusted with much, and still more

"You may
be quite sure that in the last days there are going to be some
difficult times. People will be self-centred and grasping;
boastful, arrogant and rude; disobedient to their parents,
ungrateful, irreligious; heartless and unappeasable; they will
be slanderers, profligates, savages and enemies of everything
that is good; they will be treacherous and reckless and demented
by pride, preferring their own pleasure to God. They will keep
up the outward appearance of religion but will have rejected the
inner power of it. Have nothing to do with people like that. (2
Timothy 3:1-5)
