Prayer Theme: Discipleship

Thoughts on the Readings today

 In the Bible reading today , St Paul reminds us that only a spiritual man can understand the things that are of God (i.e. spiritual things). This is a good reminder for us to be mindful of what is to come – (as detailed in the readings that follow) -to be aware, when sin is condoned, when changes are made to the Cross and to the Mass

The first reading from the Book of Truth talks about sin – especially abortion, murder,  people who assist in execution of murderers,  countries invading other nations – “Thou shalt not kill”. Jesus tells us of how laws will be brought in to “legalize sin”; of how we will not be able to practise our religion. Jesus talks of the causes and consequences of sin. The end of the message seems to apply to recent events referred to in the Synod  – communion for divorced and remarried,and  the instructions Bergoglio gave to 1000 Missionaries of Mercy (priests to go out and spread mercy in this Year of Mercy). Jesus emphasized the necessity first of accepting the 10 Commandments, repentance, true remorse, humility, and finally – forgiveness. This is a very different story to the ideas expressed in the synod by various bishops and cardinals, and by Bergoglio who told his missionaries that they could forgive sins that were not spoken.

The second reading from the Book of Truth is about the turmoil in our Faith, which comes from Rome and will lead many into error. It is a timely warning to beware of new doctrines. Our dear Mother expresses her sorrow ( “My tears fall in great torrents because so many sacred servants within the Church deny my appearances” ) that  visionaries have been sent to us for centuries to warn us, but that we don’t accept them. She especially mentions Fatima and a Salette,  which even many priests do not accept. Our dearest Mother has tried to help us and we don’t listen – how sad is that? She warns us about changes to the Cross and the Mass, and the Crucifixion, which the church will have to endure  as the darkness envelops the world.

Bible Reading (Douay Rheims)  – Paul I Cor 2: 11-16

[11] For what man knoweth the things of a man, but the spirit of a man that is in him? So the things also that are of God no man knoweth, but the Spirit of God. [12] Now we have received not the spirit of this world, but the Spirit that is of God; that we may know the things that are given us from God. [13] Which things also we speak, not in the learned words of human wisdom; but in the doctrine of the Spirit, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. [14] But the sensual man perceiveth not these things that are of the Spirit of God; for it is foolishness to him, and he cannot understand, because it is spiritually examined. [15] But the spiritual man judgeth all things; and he himself is judged of no man.

[14] The sensual man: The sensual man is either he who is taken up with sensual pleasures, with carnal and worldly affections; or he who measureth divine mysteries by natural reason, sense, and human wisdom only. Now such a man has little or no notion of the things of God. Whereas the spiritual man is he who, in the mysteries of religion, takes not human sense for his guide: but submits his judgment to the decisions of the church, which he is commanded to hear and obey. For Christ hath promised to remain to the end of the world with his church, and to direct her in all things by the Spirit of truth.

[16] For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that we may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

 

Readings from the Book of Truth

It is the sin of abortion which will be the downfall of many nations and for this they will be punished severely.

29 July 2012
My dearly beloved daughter the apostasy in the world has God’s children confused about the existence of sin. Many souls, when they think of sin, instantly think of the most grievous of sins such as murder.
Sin takes many forms. Sadly because sin has been dismissed as faults or traits it is now deemed to be simply a natural weakness. Many no longer believe in sin.
Abortion, after murder of one’s brother, is the greatest form of genocide in the world. Yet it is not only tolerated but laws are brought in by your nations which deem it a necessity. It is the sin of abortion which will be the downfall of many nations and for this they will be punished severely. Abortion is a despicable act and it wipes out generations of God’s children who cannot defend themselves.
No one will kill a child of God and avoid severe punishment.
The anger of My Father will be witnessed by those nations, who have legalised abortion, during the chastisement. They will be wiped out and no compassion shown to them just as they showed no remorse for this mortal sin when they condoned the killing of God’s children in the womb.
I call out to those who cunningly try to dismiss abortion as something which is needed to protect the rights of a mother. Lies are used to camouflage the atrocity of abortion which defies the law of God. For this sin, any lawmaker, doctor or any person who contributes in any way to this abominable act, is guilty in the eyes of God and will suffer the punishment which lies ahead.
To those who condone execution I say this. You, who condemn a man to be killed, are guilty of the same crime he may be guilty of. You are guilty of murder in this instance and it is a mortal sin. You have not been given the right to take a life.
Or to judge. Only I, Jesus Christ, have the right to judge. Anyone who contributes to the death of a murderer, through the act of execution will suffer in the fire of Hell for eternity, unless they repent. So many of you believe in the law, an eye for an eye. How misguided you are.
Do you not accept My Father’s commandments? Thou shalt not kill.
Thou shalt not kill also applies to those aggressive armies who march into lands which do not belong to them, in order to control. It applies to armies who shoot and kill innocent souls. All of this is murder. It is against the law of My Father.
Other sins such as greed, lust, speaking ill of others, cheating people out of what is rightfully theirs, revenge and slander all lead to all other sins.
They become acceptable in your world today because your greatest love is for yourselves. The lie, which you have been forced to swallow by your false teachers, self-gratification, is your path to sin. You are told that you must spend your time satisfying your hunger for wealth. You are told that you must look after yourself – that you are the most important person in your life. You must seek out everything to satisfy all your senses. Everyone else comes second.
This leads to greed, selfishness, lust and then you can be enticed to commit mortal sin.
Sin will now be accepted by your nations like never before. Laws will be introduced which will legalise mortal sin and woe to those of you who object.
Those who will advocate such wickedness will tell you that these laws are to protect the vulnerable when, in fact, all they do is to legalise murder, abortion, same-sex marriage and the idolatry of false Gods.
They will condone the persecution of the poor and cast them out onto the streets to make paupers out of them.They will bring in laws to force you to stop practising your religion. By doing so you will be breaking the law – a sin in their eyes. As I told you before your world is so full of untruths that good is presented as evil and evil presented as good. Your world is back to front and, as a result, sin flourishes.
I urge you to go back and study the ten commandments.
Obey them and live as you are expected to in the eyes of My Father.
Break the commandments and you sin. Argue that certain sins are okay and you defy My Father. Obedience to the Laws of God is weak and fragile in the world at this time. Many of God’s children have not been told firmly, by My sacred Servants, of the consequences of sin. Tolerance of sin is the greatest sin of all.
Tolerance is a cunning lie planted in the minds of humanity by theKingof lies, Satan. Tolerance is another way of justifying sin to suit man’s weakness for succumbing to the temptation of Satan. Wake up and accept sin for what it is.
Argue amongst each other and defend sin all you like but it will never be acceptable in the eyes of My Father. To enter Paradise you must be free from sin.
To become free from sin you must repent.
To repent you must first of all accept the ten commandments.
Then you must show true remorse.
True remorse can only be felt by those who humble themselves before me.
Only then can sin be forgiven.
Only then are souls fit to enter My Father’s Kingdom.
Your Saviour
Jesus Christ

 

Mother of Salvation: The fallout in Rome will result in many being led astray

20 July, 2013

My child, as turmoil within the Christian faith increases, there will still be those loyal to my Son, who by their strength of faith, will guard and protect the Holy Word of God.

The fallout in Rome will result in many being led astray and who will, unwittingly, turn away from my Son, Jesus Christ. They will fall into error because they will accept new doctrines which do not come from God. Pray, pray, pray for those within the Christian churches who will fall into the trap of accepting lies given to them in the guise of those who claim to have been chosen by my Son to proclaim His Word.

All these things have been foretold to visionaries for centuries and yet many of you refuse to accept these prophecies. I have warned humanity of these dark days ahead because my Son wishes you to be on your guard against the fallen angels who will infest His Church on Earth. My tears fall in great torrents because so many sacred servants within the Church deny my appearances. These apparitions were approved by God to make humanity aware of the dangers facing souls, lest they were given the Truth in advance.

The prophecies given to you at La Salette and Fatima are of great significance. Why do so many who claim to love me, their Mother, ignore what I told the world. You have not listened and you have allowed yourselves to be deceived.

It is time to remember that the darkness, which envelops my Son’s Church on Earth, is caused by the evil one who has misled many. This darkness cannot come from my Son and as such, His Mystical Body – His Church – remains intact. Those who remain true to His Mystical Body will not deviate from the Truth. Those who betray my Son’s Church and reject His Teachings by adopting new practices, which are insulting to Jesus Christ, cut yourselves away from His Mercy.

You must know that when the Cross of my Son is amended to look different and when the way in which the Sacrifice of the Mass is adapted in the name of modernity, then you will see the disrespect for my Son in the way in which these things are presented.

You must never betray my Son. He has suffered so much and still, some of those within His Own Church will fall into error and crucify Him all over again. When you witness these events you will know that times are changing and that the final battle between God and the beast is underway.

Can we expect more mockery?

Bergoglio will release his take on the synod document on Friday. I was talking to a fellow crusader (who has featured in quite a few of our posts).

We were discussing the fact that Friday (the day of release) was not a special feast day. This is because everything the man sitting on Peter’s chair does, is usually on a Feast day. He signed it on the Feast of St. Joseph (Patron of the Universal Church).

We thought that it might be released on Divine Mercy Sunday – we thought that this would suit him perfectly – and would be a horrible mockery. We were somewhat relieved. The day he had chosen was no special feast day – but TTcrusader mentioned that Friday was at the end of the week of Divine Mercy. This seemed to settle the question – of course this is still mockery.

Later TTcrusader sent me an email. An idea came into his head (he seems to remember all sorts of things and dates etc and has an amazing knack of putting them together).

This is what he said:

“(Name…)

We talked today that April 8th was of no particular feast day in terms of mocking God with the release of the synod document that will wipe away the sanctity of the sacraments of holy communion and marriage, the sanctity of the natural family, and bring about the beginning of the schism by separating doctrine from pastoral practice, the adoption of which will be left to the discretion of the individual national church bodies (which have no apostolic or canonical basis or foundation by the way), which will lead to a protestant style federation of the one true church.”

( That’s what I call a sentence! Also a great summary of the issues. He continues…)

“But something came to me on my way home just now from our awesome JTM meeting:

1) Kasper introduced the topic of communion for divorced/remarried

at the consistory of 20/21 February 2014, which FP called ‘doing theology on one’s knees.’ 

2) The document “approving” the above will be released on April 8, 2016

3) So according to excel, that’s a delta of 777 days !!!!

8-Apr-16

    

21-Feb-14

777

This can’t possibly be a coincidence!

So yes, more mockery: 

The satanic ecclesiastical masonry are mocking God by releasing their document of death at a time junction which equates God’s perfect number of completion* with the number of days it took them to wash away the perfect word of God.

Cheers,

TTcrusader

Reference:      http://chiesa.espresso.repubblica.it/articolo/1350729?eng=y “

(Remnant Survivor) * I think TTcrusader is referring to the 7 days of Creation

P.S. We all know how good freemasonry is at using numbers with religious significance and using them for their own agenda.  I think 777 days does seem to be more than a coincidence.

 

JtM Crusade Prayer Meeting on Holy Thursday 23rd March, 2016

Prayer theme: Discipleship

Thoughts on our  readings today

Our dearest Mother speaks in a reassuring and loving tone to us. She tells us that the prophecies will unfold soon; that she has come to prepare us and that we should never be fearful. We recognize the voice of our Mother in her tone and words – she calls us “children” – we call her “Mother”. Then she allays our fears about the evil one and his power. She explains how his power is strengthened and those he targets, who are then imprisoned so that they cannot escape.

Our dear Mother instructs us that we must help her Son to save these souls because we love Him; that we are his soldiers. She also tells us of our reward – the salvation of all humanity to the new paradise. She tells us that only our sacrifices and prayers are needed. How can we (Jesus’ disciples) refuse our loving Mother?

In the second reading, we meet Jesus with this same, loving tone where we recognize that He feels our pain when our loved ones die. He explains how He will reunite our families, and how we will live eternally in the new Kingdom. What a great gift is waiting for us! But he warns us that much preparation is needed!

He tells us of the souls He yearns for – the lukewarm, those who have never heard of Him … As in the previous reading He tells us that He needs our help to save them.  He calls us His army. He tells us to obey His instructions; that He is our Teacher and all we have to do is love him and trust Him. Again this reading is about discipleship. Jesus tells us what He has shown us in our prayer group – how He is there with us and continually teaches us.  We have to be open to Him.

In the third reading from the Book of Truth Jesus shows that He is happy with the way  the internet is used as a tool to spread the Truth and how it attracts the youth. He tells us that His heart is bursting with joy, and that now, we can tell the world of our love for Him. He tells us that this will convert many cynics. So go ahead – blog on websites and give your opinion, spread the messages on Facebook, twitter, etc. Contribute and share you experiences. Use email to spread the news. God knew what He was doing. When the official MDM website shut down, it unleashed a torrent of websites and information. Do what you can.

Jesus tells us not to blame the church for our lack of faith. He tells us that His teachings have never changed. He tells us of the greatest gift given to us by God – free will, but how this is also used for the bad, as well as the good we do. He reminds us that God will never interfere with this gift. He reminds us that we have two choices – turn to God or allow ourselves to be seduced by satan.

Finally Jesus instructs us (his disciples) to  stand up and defend His name; to encourage others to listen to our views, and to tell the world we love Him (so that we can drown out the views of the disbelieving views. Finally He tells us (once again, as in the other 2 readings), to prepare. He commands us to bring Him the multitudes.

The final reading, from the Bible, was opened up on Judith. she was a widow and a beautiful and holy woman, who wore haircloth and fasted all her life.When she heard that the city leader was going to surrender to the Assyrians, she called all the ancients together to reprimand them, to not put God to the test.. She tells them not to try to fathom God; we should not anger Him. She told the ancients, that they should show humility, and ask for mercy and not admire strange gods like their forbears. She tells them that God would punish all those nations that rise up against them. She reminded them that the punishments and tribulations they suffered were less than what their sins deserved.

Finally, she tells the ancients that the people of the city depended on them. She tells them to go and “comfort the hearts” of the people, to remind them of the past (Isaac, Jacob, Moses, Abraham…) who passed through many tribulations, but who remained faithful.

That’s our job as disciples – to encourage the people, to remind them of God’s  faithfulness; that our enemies will  be destroyed; that we must not be tempted to worship false gods – that we must “remain faithful.”

It’s Holy Thursday today – Godincidentally,  the theme was “discipleship”, and there were 12 people present today!!!

These readings are chosen randomly by volunteers. Read the complete readings below:

Readings from the Book of Truth

Virgin Mary: Whatever happens in the world children you must know that God the Most High is in command.

 4 July 2012

My child those who have witnessed the miracles of my appearances on Earth will know that the time for the secrets and the prophecies foretold will unfold soon.

Children I have made myself known in the world for some time to help prepare you for the glorious return of My Son. My Son is preparing all of you through the visionaries and the prophets so that you will be made worthy to receive his gift of eternal life.

You must never be fearful of the future if you believe in My Son because he is the bread of life and you will have a wonderful new future. Whatever happens in the world children you must know that God the Most High is in command.

The serpent has little power against My Father. The serpent’s power is only strengthened by those who fall prey to sin and the temptations he puts in their way.

Man becomes a prisoner when he sins because his power to resist other sins and offenses against My Father weakens. Then he continues to sin until he is engulfed with a darkness which is so thick that he cannot escape from it, no matter how hard he tries. Children you are now obliged, out of your love for My Son, to help those poor souls.

Only you can help them and save them because many will not be able to help themselves. You are the soldiers My Son needs at this time. It will be through your love for him that he will grant graces upon lost souls when you invoke his help through your prayers.

Here is the Crusade Prayer to save sinners.

Crusade Prayer (64) save my brothers and sisters

Oh my dearest Saviour Jesus Christ, accept my gift of prayer and sacrifices to help save my brothers and sisters from the prison of darkness they are in. Allow me to help salvage their souls. I beg you to forgive them for their sins and I ask That you flood their souls with the Holy Spirit, so that they will run into your arms as the refuge they so desperately need before they are lost forever. I offer you my gift of surrender for such souls in humble servitude and thanksgiving.   Amen

Children you are one with My Son.

Your love brings him great comfort and your sacrifices and prayers will help him to bring all of humanity into the safety of his New Paradise on Earth.

Only then can the holy family of God the Most High re-unite and live in peace for ever and ever.

Your Beloved Mother

Mother of Salvation

 

I Am your Teacher, and through Me, you will understand the Mysteries of My Final Divine Plan

8  February 2013

My dearly beloved daughter, if people realised the gift I am to bestow upon humanity, where I will raise to life the dead and the Saints, who will join those of you granted the gift of eternal life in My Kingdom, you would truly understand then this very special blessing.

To lose a loved one to death, on Earth, can be very sorrowful and causes distressing pain. But my promise to unite you, with those who have died in a state of grace, as one, will unite all of God’s children in a truly glorious way. Families will unite. Loved ones will gather together and this will result in a great celebration. All those blessed to be taken into my New Paradise, which offers eternal life, will be astonished by the magnitude of my great gift. Prepare for death. Do not fear it. But, know that Heaven is not easy to enter. Much spiritual preparation is required. When you understand clearly the wonderful life, which awaits you, at my second coming, then you will understand what is expected of you.

You must, not only, follow my instructions at this time, you must take on the responsibility of helping me to salvage the souls of those who have no interest in me and who have no desire in saving their souls, redeeming themselves before me, or receiving the sacraments. This is because they have made a conscious decision to keep my existence separate from their day-to-day lives. I am something they may be vaguely aware of – some spiritual concept, which they cannot understand. The reason is that they are not interested in making the changes, which are necessary if they are to become worthy of My Kingdom.

These lost lukewarm souls are my greatest concern, because their numbers are large, and slowly, they are drifting further and further away from me. I pine for their souls. The only way I can encourage them is through modern day communications, in order to get their attention. Every stone will be upturned. Everything in my power will be done to bring them to me.

Then, finally, there are the souls – through no fault of their own – who have never heard of me. Who never knew about My Death on the cross, or the implications this bears on the future of their existence. I need to show them the truth. I need to teach them. I need to make my messages simple. I need to show them the proof of the existence of their souls, and you, my army, will help me to do this.

There will be many tasks required of you in the salvation of all souls, and I, Your Jesus, will show you how these are to be brought about. I will instruct you in greater detail and I hope you will respond to My Call, no matter how impossible the task may seem. Love me and trust in me, for I am your teacher, and through me, you will understand the mysteries of my final Divine plan. Then all will be done and the world will be ready for my glorious return.

Your beloved teacher

Jesus Christ

Don’t allow the human failings of My Church to turn your back on Me

 30 June 2011

My dearly beloved daughter, I smile this evening with joy in My Heart, for at last, younger people are hearing my word through the internet just as foretold.

In this way more people will be able to tell the world how to prepare for The Warning. My Heart bursts with joy when I see the love that My children have for me in every corner of the Earth.

My Love never dies. They, My beloved followers, are full of My Love, which they feel in their hearts. Now they can tell the world, including the cynics, how much they revere me by praising my glory to all.

For those courageous and loving creatures of mine will now attract those who resist me to the truth as to why they are on this Earth in the first instance.

Heaven rejoices with those who openly proclaim their love for me on the internet. My Love for them surges forth so that my graces will be showered over each of them, stretching from one corner of the globe to the other.

I now come to save you before the day of judgment Remember one lesson, children. The truth of My Teachings never changed.

Human error, the sins of My sacred Servants and those who have abused the truth to suit their own ambitions may have soiled My Name, but they never changed who I am.

I am the Saviour of mankind.

I came the first time to save you to allow for the forgiveness of sin. I now come again to save you before the day of judgment.

Because My Love is so powerful, it will now permeate throughout the world by the power of the Holy Spirit to draw you back into the fold of my tender love.

Feel My Love now, children. Don’t allow your disappointment with the human failings of My Church to turn your back on me, Jesus Christ or my Eternal Father.

To those who turned their back on me because of the sins of the Church. It is because of sin that you were tempted to block out the truth.

Those of you who blame the Church for your lack of belief in me are not being honest with yourselves, for if you truly love me, you would not make excuses.

Satan is everywhere in the world now, children, trying to convince you, at every opportunity, that your faith is not relevant, not important, that your faith will not guarantee you a place in Heaven.

In some cases you believe that the mercy of God is endless and that you can be saved once you live a life where you do not cause harm to others.

You very often challenge me when you blame me for the evil in the world.

This is when you become angry with me and God the Eternal Father. How can God stand back and allow such evil to manifest itself in the world? Where murder, rape, abortion, torture, greed and poverty exist?

You must stop now and hear me. Remember that sin, caused by Satan, who most people today do not believe exists, can infest every single one of you because of the gift you were given by your Creator, God the Father. This gift of free will is given to everyone.

Some use this gift for good works, where they show love to all, while others abuse it to take advantage of others. When Satan attracts those, through their weak free will, then they become capable of committing great atrocities.

Free will is yours, children. When it becomes contaminated through sin, havoc in the world results.God the Father cannot force you to stop doing something whether it is right or wrong, for he will not interfere with your free will. He will always encourage you to pray in order to receive the graces needed to avoid sin.

It will be through your free will that you will make one of two decisions. Turn to God or allow yourself to be seduced by the lies of Satan, who will twist your mind away from the truth. Remember, I am the truth.

Satan does not want you to see the truth. He will use your intelligence and present sophisticated arguments to seduce you. He can even convince you that something is evil when it is good.

So when you believe that it is hypocritical to turn to prayer in praise of God the Father because of the sins of the Church, you must recognise this deceit for what it is, another way to encourage you to turn away from me. The truth.

Now, children, show me your love by standing up and defending My Name in a disbelieving world. Very soon you will encourage others to hear your views.

Just as those who claim they don’t believe in me shout aloud how much they hate me, you must now tell the world that you love me. Only then will Massive conversion be stirred in the world.

Let me raise you up now so you can prepare My children to enter my New Paradise on Earth. Remember, only those who believe in me and my Eternal Father can enter this Paradise. Go now and bring me the multitudes.

Your Beloved Saviour

Jesus Christ

Bible Treading: Douay Rheims: Judith 8: 1-29

The character of Judith: her discourse to the ancients.

[1] Now it came to pass, when Judith a widow had heard these words, who was the daughter of Merari, the son of Idox, the son of…: [2] And her husband was Manasses, who died in the time of the barley harvest: … [4] And Judith his relict was a widow now three years and six months. [5] And she made herself a private chamber in the upper part of her house, in which she abode shut up with her maids.

[6] And she wore haircloth upon her loins, and fasted all the days of her life, except the sabbaths, and new moons, and the feasts of the house of Israel. [7] And she was exceedingly beautiful, and her husband left her great riches, and very many servants, and large possessions of herds of oxen, and flocks of sheep. [8] And she was greatly renowned among all, because she feared the Lord very much, neither was there any one that spoke an ill word of her. [9] When therefore she had heard that Ozias had promised that he would deliver up the city after the fifth day, she sent to the ancients Chabri and Charmi. [10] And they came to her, and she said to them: What is this word, by which Ozias hath consented to give up the city to the Assyrians, if within five days there come no aid to us?

[11] And who are you that tempt the Lord? [12] This is not a word that may draw down mercy, but rather that may stir up wrath, and enkindle indignation. [13] You have set a time for the mercy of the Lord, and you have appointed him a day, according to your pleasure. [14] But forasmuch as the Lord is patient, let us be penitent for this same thing, and with many tears let us beg his pardon: [15] For God will not threaten like man, nor be inflamed to anger like the son of man.

[16] And therefore let us humble our souls before him, and continuing in an humble spirit, in his service: [17] Let us ask the Lord with tears, that according to his will so he would shew his mercy to us: that as our heart is troubled by their pride, so also we may glorify in our humility. [18] For we have not followed the sins of our fathers, who forsook their God, and worshipped strange gods. [19] For which crime they were given up to their enemies, to the sword, and to pillage, and to confusion: but we know no other God but him. [20] Let us humbly wait for his consolation, and the Lord our God will require our blood of the afflictions of our enemies, and he will humble all the nations that shall rise up against us, and bring them to disgrace.

[21] And now, brethren, as you are the ancients among the people of God, and their very soul resteth upon you: comfort their hearts by your speech, that they may be mindful how our fathers were tempted that they might be proved, whether they worshipped their God truly. [22] They must remember how our father Abraham was tempted, and being proved by many tribulations, was made the friend of God. [23] So Isaac, so Jacob, so Moses, and all that have pleased God, passed through many tribulations, remaining faithful. [24] But they that did not receive the trials with the fear of the Lord, but uttered their impatience and the reproach of their murmuring against the Lord, [25] Were destroyed by the destroyer, and perished by serpents.

[26] As for us therefore let us not revenge ourselves for these things which we suffer. [27] But esteeming these very punishments to be less than our sins deserve, let us believe that these scourges of the Lord, with which like servants we are chastised, have happened for our amendment, and not for our destruction. [28] And Ozias and the ancients said to her: All things which thou hast spoken are true, and there is nothing to be reprehended in thy words. [29] Now therefore pray for us, for thou art a holy woman, and one fearing God.

Bergoglio and the relics of St Padre Pio and St Leopold Mandic

On February 9th, 2016, (the vigil of Ash Wednesday), Bergoglio delivered a speech to the ‘Missionaries of Mercy” – priests who would go out during this Year of Mercy.

In his speech, Bergoglio spoke of  the language of gestures – that often people can’t verbalize their sins through shame, and that the priest should give them absolution.

The following email was received from a fellow crusader (and blogger)– making a connection that I was not aware of:

“The other thing to note is that when this was said by the FP on Feb 9,

He did so in the presence of PADRE PIO’S BODY and ST LEOPOLD MANDIC’s body, the saint of the confessional.

So more MOCKERY !

TTcrusader”

Pray for Us St Padre Pio and St Leopold Mandic!

 

More Signs…

  • A certain member of our prayer group had recently lost his hearing aid on an interstate trip. He didn’t always wear it – only when he really needed to. It cost a lot of money( $1500), especially for a pensioner.

At prayer group today, he said to  another  member that he had asked God to not make his hearing get any worse, as he was not going to buy another. The person, to whom he was speaking,  instantly opened the Bible, which was on the table (ready for our prayer group readings) and this is what it said:

Isaiah 43:8  (Douay Rheims):

“[8] Bring forth the people that are blind, and have eyes: that are deaf, and have ears. [9] All the nations are assembled together, and the tribes are gathered: who among you can declare this, and shall make us hear the former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, let them be justified, and hear, and say: It is truth.”

We all laughed, but the reading was very appropriate. This elderly person plays a particular role in our prayer group – he remembers the Church as it was pre Vatican II. He teaches us of how things were – “…hear the former things…” He is there to tell us “It is truth”

  •  Another younger member sometimes wears a head covering at prayer group – as do 1 or 2 others. She had left it behind one week, and I asked her if it was hers. Later, she went home and opened the Bible,  as she always does before she retires and this is what it told her:

“Decorum in public worship” 1 Corinthians 11: 2-16

[2] Now I praise you, brethren, that in all things you are mindful of me: and keep my ordinances as I have delivered them to you. [3] But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and the head of Christ is God. [4] Every man praying or prophesying with his head covered, disgraceth his head. [5] But every woman praying or prophesying with her head not covered, disgraceth her head: for it is all one as if she were shaven.

[6] For if a woman be not covered, let her be shorn. But if it be a shame to a woman to be shorn or made bald, let her cover her head. [7] The man indeed ought not to cover his head, because he is the image and glory of God; but the woman is the glory of the man. [8] For the man is not of the woman, but the woman of the man. [9] For the man was not created for the woman, but the woman for the man. [10] Therefore ought the woman to have a power over her head, because of the angels.

[10] A power: that is, a veil or covering, as a sign that she is under the power of her husband: and this, the apostle adds, because of the angels, who are present in the assemblies of the faithful.

[11] But yet neither is the man without the woman, nor the woman without the man, in the Lord. [12] For as the woman is of the man, so also is the man by the woman: but all things of God. [13] You yourselves judge: doth it become a woman, to pray unto God uncovered? [14] Doth not even nature itself teach you, that a man indeed, if he nourish his hair, it is a shame unto him? [15] But if a woman nourish her hair, it is a glory to her; for her hair is given to her for a covering.

[16] But if any man seem to be contentious, we have no such custom, nor the church of God.”

Well, this is a lot to think about. This points to the fact that we (women) should have our head covered in Church – but it could also mean that our heads should be covered in ANY public worship – during prayer group also??

And what about the rest of our clothing? How should we present ourselves when we visit our Lord and King?  Let us remember we are in the presence of Royalty!!! And He is present at every prayer group.

There is no doubt about it. Our good Lord not only teaches us, but challenges us.

  • This one seems to be a continuation of last week. (See “Go tell Others” posts.)

We were doing the same meditation for the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary as we have been doing all through Lent. At the end, C. told us that this time, Jesus was not moving around, and that he was silent. We took this to heart, as it was a very appropriate message for us. Persecutions will increase  – for all prayer groups, wherever you are, – and it will be well to remember this.

Thank you Jesus for being with us at our Prayer Group – to listen to us, and to hear us and guide us.

 

 

 

Meditation on the Cross

This is a beautiful meditation on the Cross from “America Needs Fatima”

The story is of a Spanish knight, leaving his castle, his wife and child behind in order to lead his men to fight the Moors.He is captured and enslaved.

He does not know if his family knows of his whereabouts, in order to raise ransom money to free him. A life-sized Crucifix hangs above the town, for the pure purpose of being blasphemed and spat upon. He vows that if he is freed, he will return for the Cross. After 10 years, when it seems that he can be freed, he has a huge decision to make  – to choose between the Cross and his family!

“The weight of the Cross” is a beautiful meditation on the Cross.

Read the full story here:

https://americaneedsfatima.org/Family-Series/the-weight-of-the-holy-cross.html

Prayer before a Crucifix

BEHOLD, O kind and most sweet Jesus,

I cast myself upon my knees in Thy sight,

and with the most fervent desire of my soul,

pray and beseech  Thee that Thou wouldst impress upon my heart,

the lively sentiments of Faith, Hope and Charity,

with true repentance for my sins and a firm desire of amendment:

whilst with deep affection and grief of soul I ponder within myself

and mentally contemplate Thy five most precious Wounds,

having before mine eyes the words which of old,

the prophet David spoke in prophecy of Thee, O good Jesus:

They have pierced My hands and My feet, they have numbered all My bones [Psalm 21, 17, 18].

Say Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be for the Catholic Church and the intentions of the Holy Father.

A plenary indulgence, under the usual conditions, may be gained by those who shall say this prayer with devotion before an image of our crucified Redeemer.

A partial indulgence may also be gained for each devout recitation.

Will Divine Mercy be Mocked?

“Vatican spokesman Father Federico Lombardi told reporters March 17 that the apostolic exhortation will be released sometime after Easter week, in the first half of April.”

(See full article by Edward Pentin at http://www.ncregister.com/blog/cardinal-kasper-exhortation-could-be-published-saturday)

Will the date of release be another mocking?

A.C (Crusader). surmised that the most appropriate date would be April 3rd on the Feast of Divine Mercy. If so, A.C asks whether it will be a TRUE Mercy (to reaffirm Church doctrine),  or a FALSE mercy.

Whenever this happens, the Feast Day itself is ignored. When the item being presented is contrary to Traditional Church teaching, this makes a mockery of the feast itself.

He supplies previous mockings of Feast Days held in special esteem by the Catholic Church:

On  Sept. 8th  The Feast of the  Nativity of Mary: –  : “catholic divorce” in 40 days

On Dec 8th  The Feast of the  Immaculate Conception: there was a pagan light show on St Peter’s facade of the Vatican

On March 19th, on the Feast of St Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church, and head of the Holy Family: – the Apostolic Exhortation for the destruction of the family (i.e. the synod document)  was signed by Bergoglio, on the 3rd anniversary of his enthronement.

 

Will Bergoglio’s announcement be mocking true teaching?

If so, I sincerely hope it is not on  this great Feast Day of Divine Mercy.!

 

“Go Tell the Others” Part 2

   A CP Group member’s testimony

( cont’d from last post “Go tell the Others Part 1” under ‘Signs and Wonders’.)

“So because of that I’ll also share an experience I had on Friday 11th March (the day after the Prayer Group and this aforementioned experience).

In my church, after Mass, we had Benediction then Exposition for 24hrs: we said the Rosary then I stayed a couple of hours. I decided to ask Our Lord about my experience the previous day and why I could only see him through closed eyes. The answer I believe I got is that we have been told Jesus will never walk the earth again in the flesh, so he is in Spirit, and I wouldn’t be able to see him through human eyes.

 The other very stern impression I felt, was that we are not doing enough, and that the time is almost up, and even of those who believe Jesus’ messages and believe that we are in the end times, – most are still living as in the days of Noah, believing we still have a bit of time, but we are being foolish wasting valuable time when we should be praying more and fasting more.

Many millions of souls will be lost, we need to somehow reach more, many more people, God has given us this mission, which we accepted, what else can we do?

I also felt he very sternly told me to get to church the next day [Saturday 12th March] early for Adoration before Mass. [I know he knew I was thinking about not going  as I wasn’t feeling very well] but I got the message loud and clear and can assure you I was at church more than an hour before Mass, and I fully realisz I personally do not do enough to help save souls in this very important mission. We must talk about what more we can do, some people I’m sure will have lots of ideas but others, [like me] are at a loss, and we all want to do more, I’m sure, and we must obey God.” 

More from C:

As I was saying my Divine Mercy Chaplet today, towards the end, I felt Jesus telling me that we should not be surprised at such occurrences during fervent prayer. We are in desperate times and he loves us very much, he wants to help us, and protect us as much as possible.

Conclusion:

Just because God has personally chosen each one of us for this mission, doesn’t give us the right to think we are any more special to him than any of his children. In fact much more is expected of us: we have been blessed to be given so much knowledge, but that won’t save us, but using that knowledge in the right way, can, and save many others as well.

I know speaking for myself, I should do more, pray more, fast more, etc. but I let various things get in the way a lot of the time. I’m not sure I’ll be game to do that in the future. God is speaking very loudly and it not only scared me but made me very sad to think that God has to get so frustrated with us, his Army. GOD LOVES US BUT HE EXPECTS A LOT FROM HIS CHOSEN ARMY, only because he obviously knows we are capable.

LET’S REALLY PUT OUR TRUST IN HIM. Jesus will never dessert us, he has shown us time and time again that He is with us – literally.

 I also opened my prayer book to Crusade Prayers 9 and 10, so I’ll make sure I say those and many others every day. “

Conclusion (Prayer Group leader and Donna Liane*):

Adoration, prayer and fasting is the key – the armour we need to fight the battle. And most important is to know the Truth (from Bible and Book of Truth) and be ready to “shout it from the rooftops” when the time comes. We have to be ready, and build up our strength now with more Masses and more Adoration while we still can as well as more fasting, penance and prayer.

 If after this message, we increase our prayer twofold we are like the servant who made a small increase or even the one who buried the money entrusted to him. If instead we increase prayer (especially the fervency with which we pray) AND spread the Word to the lost and lame, (not just the elect ), if we enable   1-2 others to pray the Crusade Prayers, and maybe they do the same, how much more prayer is increased? Maybe tenfold!!

Jesus needs all of us to pray AND evangelise! Don’t be shy! Your earnestness, passion and Love will enflame whoever you meet! It will work because Jesus is with you!!

* P.S, Donna and I often do things together and check each other’s posts.

For the Greater Glory of God.!!!

JtM Crusade Prayer Meeting Thursday 17th March, 2016

Prayer theme: Special Graces

Thoughts on the readings today

In the Bible Reading today we hear the story of Jesus washing His disciples’ feet – showing His disciples how they should serve.He also tells us that He knows the ones He chose. Despite this Jesus also announces that one will betray Him.We have to be ready or this.

Some people in our groups will weaken and opt out, others, (in a moment of weakness, or without thinking), will say or do something which will attract unwanted attention. Like Peter, when he denied Jesus 3 times before the cock  crew. This unwary moment can cause martyrdom or persecution. There may even be a “Judas” in our groups. What will we do then? We have to be prepared, Be alert! Be ready! Take precautions! Don’t take anything for granted.After all, Jesus warns us in the messages that not all of us will persevere.

Ultimately though, Jesus tells us that it is by our love for one another that we will be recognized as His disciples! Jesus loves us and gives us, his disciples “special graces” to warn us, and to cope with difficulties – whether small, personal, family, prayer group, church community  or sometimes something that seems too big to handle..

These thoughts are repeated in the first reading from the Book of Truth. At the beginning Jesus tell us that He has given the world the”greatest Mercy“. In the last paragraph in the reading we chose, Jesus tells us “Every one of you in my remnant army will be given special graces”. This happens all the time – every week we choose readings – how all the readings come together, but it blows my mind each time. We know it’s Jesus (proof last week) – I guess it’s good that we don’t take it for granted. Praise to you Lord Jesus Christ!

Before this though, Jesus gives us instructions: to be calm, be confident, to spread His word, and ensure we pray for the salvation of souls of others. He warns us that “This mission will be the most vilified since my Crucifixion“; that evil spirits will cause disruption and place obstacles, but that the more we suffer the more souls will be saved. Jesus reinforces the fact that we should prepare now because “time is short”

The next reading we chose again emphasizes the importance of spreading God’s word. He reminds us of the importance of His teachings and of reading the Holy Bible. He tells us that His holy Word is the food of the souls. This is why we must try so hard to spread His word – because without this food the soul withers, and grasps worldly things and false religions. We have the gift of Baptism but not everyone has been given the Truth.We (as the remnant army) must try very hard to help Jesus in this

The last reading chosen today gives us more information on how to save more souls. Jesus tells us that prophecies that are fulfilled, will allay doubt in the hearts of His followers. He tells us to go ahead and “publish, without hesitation, other events I have revealed to you.“

Sounds like a  homework assignment to me! We have been speaking in our prayer group during the last few weeks of how the messages are telling us to prepare. Well Jesus is our Teacher. He is telling us what we should do.We all have access to the messages – we must make lists, ideas, strategies and SHARE them with each other. We should have printed books, leaflets, etc ready to hand out when the time comes. We must know our prophecies and the facts so that we can convince others. It is like C. (in our prayer group last week) said – that we are not doing enough.) – see posts entitled “Go tell the others” under Signs and Wonders.

Jesus outlines ecological events which are to happen – earthquakes in England, Norway, South America, sea-level rise in Mediterranean. Perhaps some of us could prepare a list – of the Prophecy, the Message (and date) in which it is foretold and when and where it happened.. If any of you have any ideas, do not hesitate to forward them to us (see contact button – email) and perhaps we can post them on the site. We already do this for our own prayer group, but would be happy to hear from you and consider anything you send.

In conclusion, please read the messages referred to above, in the sections below. Read them in full.

Bible Reading from  John 13: 1 Washing of Disciples’ Feet

3 Jesus knew that the Father had put everything into his hands, and that He had come from God and was returning to God,4 and He got up from table, removed His outer garments and, taking a towel, wrapped it round His waist;5 He then poured water into a basin and began to wash the disciples’ feet and to wipe them with the towel He was wearing.6 He came to Simon Peter, who said to him, ‘Lord, are you going to wash my feet?’7 Jesus answered, ‘At the moment you do not know what I am doing, but later you will understand.’8 ‘Never!’ said Peter. ‘You shall never wash my feet.’ Jesus replied, ‘If I do not wash you, you can have no share with me.’ Simon Peter said,9 ‘Well then, Lord, not only my feet, but my hands and my head as well!’

10 Jesus said, ‘No one who has had a bath needs washing, such a person is clean all over. You too are clean, though not all of you are.’11 He knew who was going to betray him, and that was why He said, ‘though not all of you are’.12 When He had washed their feet and put on His outer garments again He went back to the table. ‘Do you understand’, He said, ‘what I have done to you?13 You call me Master and Lord, and rightly; so I am.14 If I, then, the Lord and Master, have washed your feet, you must wash each other’s feet.

15 I have given you an example so that you may copy what I have done to you.16 ‘In all truth I tell you, no servant is greater than his master, no messenger is greater than the one who sent him.17 ‘Now that you know this, blessed are you if you behave accordingly.

18 I am not speaking about all of you: I know the ones I have chosen; but what scripture says must be fulfilled: ‘He who shares my table takes advantage of me.19 I tell you this now, before it happens, so that when it does happen you may believe that I am He.

20 In all truth I tell you, whoever welcomes the one I send, welcomes Me, and whoever welcomes Me, welcomes the One who sent me.’21 Having said this, Jesus was deeply disturbed and declared, ‘In all truth I tell you, one of you is going to betray Me.’

22 The disciples looked at each other, wondering whom he meant.23 The disciple Jesus loved was reclining next to Jesus;24 Simon Peter signed to him and said, ‘Ask who it is he means,’25 so leaning back close to Jesus’ chest he said, ‘Who is it, Lord?’

26 Jesus answered, ‘It is the one to whom I give the piece of bread that I dip in the dish.’ And when he had dipped the piece of bread he gave it to Judas son of Simon Iscariot.

27 At that instant, after Judas had taken the bread, Satan entered him. Jesus then said, ‘What you are going to do, do quickly.’28 None of the others at table understood why he said this.29 Since Judas had charge of the common fund, some of them thought Jesus was telling him, ‘Buy what we need for the festival,’ or telling him to give something to the poor.

30 As soon as Judas had taken the piece of bread he went out. It was night.31 When he had gone, Jesus said: Now has the Son of man been glorified, and in him God has been glorified.32 If God has been glorified in him, God will in turn glorify him in himself, and will glorify him very soon.

33 Little children, I shall be with you only a little longer. You will look for Me, and, as I told the Jews, where I am going, you cannot come.34 I give you a new commandment: love one another; you must love one another just as I have loved you.

35 It is by your love for one another, that everyone will recognise you as my disciples.

36 Simon Peter said, ‘Lord, where are you going?’ Jesus replied, ‘Now you cannot follow me where I am going, but later you shall follow me.’37 Peter said to him, ‘Why can I not follow you now? I will lay down my life for you.’38 ‘Lay down your life for me?’ answered Jesus. ‘In all truth I tell you, before the cock crows you will have disowned me three times.’

Readings from the Books of Truth.

I will create miracles all over the world to prove to the skeptics that it is I, Jesus Christ, Who has sent My prophet to prepare all of you for My Second Coming

Friday, 7 June 2013 @ 23:45

My dearly beloved daughter, all of those who know the truth and who accept the prophecies contained in My Father’s book, must accept that he has granted the world the greatest Mercy.

Now that the time draws closer for my second coming, those who recognize My voice and who listen to Me, must devote their time to ensure that they spread My word and pray for the salvation of all their brothers and sisters.

My beloved disciples, My graces are being poured over you and you must remain confident when helping others to prepare for my second coming.

Even when they scream obscenities at you, you must remain calm.

This mission will be the most vilified since my Crucifixion, but know that it is the mission which will save billions of souls.

This is my time. It is the time allocated to me by my beloved Father, as agreed. It is the time for my reign when the new Heaven and the new Earth will merge as one. Just as My Father’s will is done in Heaven, so too will it be done on Earth.All will become one. Hatred, suffering and the power of evil will cease.

Every effort you make now to salvage your own souls and your prayers to save others will be worth it, no matter how difficult it is.Let them roar at you, scourge you, abuse you, call you liars and treat you cruelly. The more you will suffer, the more souls you will bring to me.I have carved out this path and it is guarded by all of the angels in Heaven.

Every evil spirit will cause disruption, create obstacles and try to stop you walking towards me, but it will be useless.They cannot stop Me reaching out to you or drawing you closer.

There will be billions of you.Those who refuse to prepare now will do so in time. You must not allow them to slow you down, for time is short.

Every one of you in my remnant army will be given special graces and I will create miracles all over the world to prove to the skeptics that it is I, Jesus Christ, who has sent my prophet to prepare all of you for my second coming.

Your Jesus

I urge My followers to remind people of the importance of reading the Holy Bible

23 January 2013

My dearly beloved daughter, I am joyful and pleased because of the love, which my disciples hold in their hearts for Me.Heaven rejoices at the speed in which my Divine Messages and prayers are spreading throughout the world.

This is the time, foretold, so very long ago, when my holy gospel will be preached throughout the whole world. I urge my followers to remind people of the importance of reading the holy Bible, the word set out, according to the will of My Father.

Today, my word is spoken, yet again, to instill in the minds of people, today, the importance of My Teachings. Failure to accept the word of God results in the death of the soul. Every man on Earth was born with free will.

For every man, given life by My Father, the sacrament of Baptism was made available, but not every child of God was given access to this important gift, which cleanses the soul and rids it of demons. Every man was entitled to the truth of My Teachings, yet not every man was given the Truth.

In its place, false religions were fed into the souls of innocents. This led to hatred for one another, as the lies, created and spread by such false religions, infested the hearts of man. The truth is that my holy Word is the food of the soul. Without it the soul withers. When it is empty of the peace, which My Love brings to it, it then seeks solace in the arms of worldly things, which drain it of every comfort, eventually.

Now that my holy Word is being ignited in the hearts of jaded men, My Love will spread when the Truth is given to humanity.This love will draw hungry souls, and so My plan of salvation will continue.I will exhaust every avenue, using the hearts of humble souls – who truly love me – in order to save the whole of the human race. It does not matter what god they idolize because, very soon, the truth will be revealed to them.Then, they will want for nothing, only my glorious presence.

Your Jesus

New Revelations Floods in France this Summer

 22 May 2011

My dearly beloved daughter, the revelation given to you on the 18th march, 2011, at midnight, that the volcanic eruption in Iceland would occur in may has now taken place.

You may wonder why you were so shocked when this happened as foretold. So I will explain. Although most of your doubts have been dispelled regarding the authenticity of My communications with you, there was still a fear on your part that you were not discerning these prophecies correctly. You must rise now with confidence and let me allay your fears.

Move now and publish, without hesitation, other events I have revealed to you.

By doing this, more people will understand that it is I, Jesus Christ, who now commands the attention that is required to help save souls. When these prophecies are confirmed, there will be little doubt in the hearts of my followers of their authenticity.

Yet the hardened soul, who refuses to believe and who will always provide a logical response when they witness the truth, will still not be convinced. Floods in France, heat wave in Turkey Hear me now. Floods will occur in the south of France this summer.A heat wave will take place in Turkey.

Other ecological events, which will cause disarray, include an Earthquake in England (but not immediately) some of which will impact on other European states. Expect a rise in sea levels in the Mediterranean, which will shock every one. Earthquakes will also be felt in Norway and in South America.

I will, My daughter, reveal other events to you, but with only one motive in mind. That is to convert My children. If and when they accept that I speak to them through you, then this will bring me joy. I have no wish to frighten My children, but these events will continue to escalate in the world as part of the great chastisement ahead.

They are a necessary part in the battle against the deceiver.Pray now, My children, to dilute and avert these events, because prayer is extremely powerful as a means of pardon.

Go now in peace.Do not be afraid to publish these prophecies, for they will occur.

Your Saviour

Jesus Christ

Jesus we trust in You!!!

Go and tell the others!! Part 1

Donna’s Testimony:

It was me who opened the Bible on Thursday (10th March) at our prayer meeting. I waited till last and was surprised. The Resurrection story in Matthew. (See post for JtM Crusade Prayer Meeting 10th March, 2016) .We all know that story. As I read it aloud, two things stood out…

But I didn’t understand how this was connected to the other messages we read. Of course this could have been just a general encouragement; how after all the pain of the tribulations, Christ who conquered sin and death, will triumph again-even that He may surprise us with His sudden appearance.

But nevertheless I pondered why Jesus had provided this passage to us that day. And only later did I understand.

After a few hours of prayer and some lunch and talking with each other, most people had returned home. In the meantime one fervent passionate funny Irish lady remained. She had been pondering a few things of her own.

Prayer Group leader:

As Donna, I too, had been wondering about the Bible reading. I, too, thought that it didn’t seem to follow the same pattern as per usual. This is how it all started:

Last Thursday, 10th March, another special event happened at our Crusade Prayer Group meeting. In the morning of the Prayer Group day, I asked Jesus, while at Mass, to be at our prayer group with us and to bring those people who are meant to come. I always do this. We often think how true it is, that He is there guiding us, because the readings that are opened randomly, always follow the theme we choose for the prayers

At other times when such things have occurred, more than one person notices something and this gets us talking. This time we were praying the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary (as we have been all through Lent) and using a religious text on the passion to meditate on, as a type of “Scripture Rosary”. It was very moving. I noticed  J’s voice was very strained while reciting her decade and it was difficult for her at times to speak. After the meditation before each decade, quite often there was a long, very silent, (seemed holy) pause before anyone elected to start the next decade. J was directly in my line of sight and I didn’t look at anyone else. We have been doing this for a few weeks and it was always very moving.

After all the prayers, we chose our readings (randomly, as usual). Donna elected to open the Bible. I thought to myself that she is very good at doing this.(She often does this before going to bed and often tells me of what she read.) Of course we had prayed to the Holy Spirit before opening any of the books / Bible.

After the prayers, and readings, food and fellowship, people had commenced going home. There were 4 of us left and C. started to go, and we started talking at the door, when she told us of her experience during prayer group. C. Had been involved in other experiences – especially in the St Therese of the Child Jesus (the little Flower) which caused us to adopt her as our patroness for our Prayer Group.(See this post under Signs and Wonders) quite some time ago. We trusted immediately what she had to say.

Donna’s reading made sense. C.  felt uncomfortable in announcing to everyone what had happened – it’s not as if you would say “Hey guys, guess what just happened” – so she kept quiet. But now, in talking, as we love to do, it just all came out. After she had finished I told her that she had to tell the others – and the reasons why, and I asked her to write it all down.

This is what she told us:

C’s Testimony:

“On Thursday 10th of March, I went to my prayer group meeting as usual.

Our prayer leader has, during Lent included, before each decade, rosary meditations on the Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary. As we were all listening very intently, and I’m sure very sad listening to the description of Jesus torture, I’m sure I wasn’t the only one yet again moved to tears.

About the 3rd decade I could see Jesus walking among us. I had my eyes closed the whole time, but I could actually see him moving around the room. He was smiling and would lean over to kiss most of the people there. I was able to ask him questions all the while never missing any of the Rosary prayers.

I asked him why he had visited us like this, and the answer I believe I got is that he was very happy to feel such love and so much compassion and sadness for his suffering. …

I continued to watch Jesus move about as we prayed the Rosary, other prayers and the Divine Mercy Chaplet, after which we say prayer 104. By this time I’m usually more than ready to get up from my kneeling position, but last week I didn’t want to open my eyes as I knew when I did, I wouldn’t be able to see my Jesus any more.

We went on with our prayers as usual, then at the conclusion of our prayers we randomly pick readings from 3 of the Book of Truth books and the Bible. I didn’t say anything about my experience, and wasn’t really planning to. (When) I was leaving, most of the others were gone by then, and I almost involuntarily started telling our prayer leader, her daughter, and sister what I had experienced.

Funny thing is our leader said, you need to tell others. It was only the next day her daughter realised that the same expression was in the Bible reading she read that day at prayer group. So I knew I was meant to share….”

Prayer Group Leader:

The Bible  reading for the day, that was chosen randomly by Donna, was after the Resurrection.

Jesus had appeared to his disciples and told them to tell the others what they had seen.

It suddenly dawned on Donna, that this was meant as confirmation that C. had to tell the others about her experience, (and also confirming what I had said to C. the previous day, that she had to tell the others).

We were amazed (to put it lightly), but we should not be, because we have come to know how Jesus guides us each week in our readings for the prayer group, and we have had other little signs.

The next day, C.  prayed and meditated  before she wrote it all down, and during this time, (while spending time at Mass and Adoration ), she came up with more.

See “ Go and tell the Others: Part II” – coming soon
