Holy Week events at the Vatican 2018

AM+DG

 1. Plaster fell down near Michelangelo’s statue of the Pieta in the Vatican.

The Jersey Evening Post reported: Chunks of plaster fall from St Peter’s Basilica

World News | Published: Mar 29, 2018

“Falling plaster rained down near Michelangelo’s famed Pieta statue to the right of the main entrance. …Vatican spokesman Greg Burke said repairmen are working to secure the site and the basilica remained open.”

https://jerseyeveningpost.com/news/world-news/2018/03/29/chunks-of-plaster-fall-from-st-peters-basilica/  

This happened just hours after Pope Francis’ denial of hell (See article below)

Is this to bring to our attention Our Blessed Mother, holding the Body of her Son? (The Pieta, right near the falling chunks of plaster)

The Church is also the Mystical Body of Christ.

Is the ceiling plaster falling in chunks, a symbol of the structure of the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church beginning to crumble? Maybe this is the sign.
After all, the Church will crumble as Bergoglio dismantles it and as he destroys its teachings and traditions – bit by bit. The ceiling plaster falling, is like the rumble before the schism. Not all is well in the Church!

2.“Pope Bergoglio Spouts the Annihilationist Heresy—Again

(This is the heresy that no-one goes to hell. Bergoglio was quoted as saying, once before, that the souls of the damned just ceased to exist. Read the article below by clicking on the link.)

Thursday, March 29, 2018;   Written by  Christopher A. Ferrara

See:

DonnaLiane’s comment: (on the article above)

 “ Basically, the Vatican denies it but not really! Just denies that they were his exact words and denies it was an ‘interview’.

3. Pope Francis did not kiss Jesus’ feet, but his face.

“Just checked the 1962 missal, it says “… devoutly kiss the feet of the Crucified” (Tt Crusader)

“Reverence and humility is kissing His feet; like Mary Magdalene. It’s an inbuilt instinct.” (DonnaLiane)

See https://twitter.com/EdwardPentin/status/979843084895838209

Watch this video (above) closely (especially at the beginning) of Bergoglio kissing the Crucifix at the Good Friday ceremonies, 2018. (yesterday)

Jesus message on March 29, 2013,(just after Bergoglio was elected) Good Friday:

“My dearly beloved daughter when Judas Iscariot betrayed Me, he held My Head and kissed me on the cheek. When those who lead My Church say they love Me, and then betray Me, you will see, clearly, their kiss of betrayal.

Not at My Feet will they fall.  It will not be My Feet they kiss, but those of My servants, My followers, My sinners….” (see link to the complete message below)

  1. Pope Francis washed the feet of 12 prisoners

at the historic Regina Coeli prison in Rome this last Holy Thursday.

As we know, the washing of the feet is to remind us of the first Holy Thursday, where Jesus washed the feet of his 12 apostles – i.e. the first bishops of the Christ’s Church.

Why then, would Pope Francis include two Moslems and a Buddhist?

Is this a sign of the new One World Church to come? (That is, this new church, not of Jesus Christ, but represented by religious leaders of a variety of faiths: Buddhists, Moslems, Hindus, Catholics, other Christians, atheists…all will be welcome.) Just as Jesus washed the feet of his Apostles – bishops of His Church –    Bergoglio washes the feet of people representing all religions – the new One World Church.

The Missal instructs the priest to wash the foot and dry it with a cloth. Bergoglio not only washes the feet, but kisses them. (See the prophecy from the Book of Truth below)

Remember the very first “popevideo” of Pope Francis (entitled “The Pope Video – Inter-religious Dialogue – January 2016”) which shows  a Buddhist, a Jew, a Moslem and a Catholic priest?

On the first Holy Thursday in 2013, just after Bergoglio was elected, his first “washing of the feet”, Jesus’ message to us was:

Not at My Feet will they fall.  It will not be My Feet they kiss, but those of My servants, My followers, My sinners.    …

Humanism is not Christianity. To be Christian means surrendering all to Me, abandoning yourself in full humility at My Feet. It means allowing Me to guide you. It means obedience to My Laws and doing all that you can to show the example of My Love for you all. Today I was betrayed….”  (Book of Truth: March 29, 2013 @ 7:00pm; Message # 3 on Good Friday)

The Church and the Pope – Part 4: Other Responses and Advice

AM+DG

Correcting the Pope: Other Responses

  • Bishop Athanasius Schneider was reported by LifeSiteNews on Feb, 23, 2017 as saying that bishops who order their priests to give Holy Communion to divorced and remarried Catholics are “committing a grave abuse of his power.”

“He’s ordering (the priest) to sin and when a bishop even or a Pope commands me to sin I have to refuse,”

Bishop Schneider explained in a recent interview with Rorate Caeli and Adelante la Fe. “I have to obey God and therefore in this case the priest has to say to the bishop, ‘Your Excellency you order me to commit a sin and I cannot do this, I have to obey God and I cannot obey you.’”

“He has to resist even to the extent that he will lose his office, added Bishop Schneider. “Better to lose all but not to commit sin against the commandment of God.” 

  • Dr Kelly Bowring an eminent Catholic theologian and expert on prophecy, who has written many books – one of which has an Imprimatur.

See: http://twoheartspress.com/category/blog/ for his article on “Correcting Pope Francis: Detraction or Duty”   (Posted 3rd  Feb , 2016)

  • A Catholic diocesan priest: who discusses the pope’s heresies and his invalid election

http://www.traditionalcatholicpriest.com/2016/10/14/why-pope-francis-is-a-false-prophet/   (14th October, 2016)

  • Fr Weinandy’s letter

Fr Weinandy was asked to resign from his post as consultant to the bishops on the USCCB as a result of his letter.

See: http://www.catholicworldreport.com/2017/11/01/fr-thomas-g-weinandy-explains-his-critical-letter-to-pope-francis/  The letter was dated 31 July, 2017

 Read the details of  the miraculous intervention for writing his letter in the supplement of our booklet.

  • Fr Weinandy spoke at a conference hosted by Notre Dame University in Sydney on Feb. 23, 2018 – developing the themes of his letter to the Pope.

Referring to Pope Francis, he said that his “papacy was marked by “chronic confusion” and that he teaches with “a seemingly intentional lack of clarity.”

“It would appear that Pope Francis identifies himself not as the promoter of unity,” he concludes, “but as the agent of division.”

“… Weinandy warns that, “these four defining ecclesial marks (One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic)  are presently at risk.  This threat comes not only from within the Catholic theological community, but even and regrettably from within Church leadership.”

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/u.s.-bishops-former-theologian-four-marks-of-church-are-becoming-opaque-und?utm_source=LifeSiteNews.com&utm_campaign=14530fddaa-Daily%2520Headlines%2520-%2520World&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_12387f0e3e-14530fddaa-402310269

  • Cardinal Gerhard Müller:
  • “ Formulating pastoral practices based on ”individual cases” is a ‘rhetorical trick” that undermines the unity of the faith”

    “…Christ did not institute the Magisterium in order to initiate processes which lead to confusion.”

    “The task of the pope, together with the Congregation for the Faith, is to preserve the unity of the Church in the revealed truth….”

The Church and the Pope: Part 3- Correcting the pope

AM+DG

Correcting the Pope – Saints and Popes

Pope Adrian VI († 1523)

“If by the Roman Church you mean its head or pontiff, it is beyond question that he can err even in matters touching the faith. He does this when he teaches heresy by his own judgment or decretal. In truth, many Roman pontiffs were heretics. The last of them was Pope John XXII († 1334).”

St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica II, II, q. 33, a   It must be observed, however, that if the faith were endangered, a subject ought to rebuke his prelate even publicly.”

 St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica II, II, q. 33, a. 4, Sed Contra“Augustine says in his Rule: ‘Show mercy not only to yourselves, but also to him who, being in the higher position among you, is therefore in greater danger.’ But fraternal correction is a work of mercy. Therefore even prelates ought to be corrected.” 

Pope St. Gregory the Great  “It is better that scandals arise than the truth be suppressed.” 

 “But, when necessity compels, not those only who are invested with power of rule are bound to safeguard the integrity of faith, but, as St. Thomas maintains: ‘Each one is under obligation to show forth his faith, either to instruct and encourage others of the faithful, or to repel the attacks of unbelievers.’”https://www.stpeterslist.com/7334/the-path-to-hell-is-paved-with-the-skulls-of-bishops-8-quotes-and-sources/

Strategies Employed to correct Pope Francis so far, include:

  • Dubia: Centuries old tradition of correcting a pope issued by  Cardinals Burke, Caffara, Meisner and Brandmüller. (see image below) (2 of these cardinals are now deceased. The questions were ignored by Pope Francis.)

https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/full-text-of-4-cardinals-letter-to-pope-francis-with-explanatory-notes-and

  • A Filial Correction was issued to the pope by 62 signatories  in a 25 page letter. This measure had not been employed since the 14th century. See articles below. Also NY Times, 23 Sept. 2017 & Rorate Caeli.

https://www.lifesitenews.com/opinion/the-worldwide-impact-and-significance-of-the-filial-correction

  • Correction by three bishops against Pope Francis’ interpretation of Amoris Laetitia … saying such a reading is causing “rampant confusion,” is “alien” to the Catholic faith, and will spread “a plague of divorce” in the Church. Bishop Athanasius Schneider, auxiliary of Astana, Kazakhstan, Archbishop Tomash Peta, Metropolitan of Astana, and Archbishop Jan Pawel Lenga of Karaganda, Kazakhstan issued a Profession of the immutable truths about sacramental marriage on December 31 as a “service of charity in truth” to the Church of today and to the Pope. (Jan 2, LifeSiteNews)  (This original group of 3 now stands at 7 Bishops as in Jan. 2018)

The Church and the Pope – Part 2

AM+DG

 Words and Actions of Pope Francis

  • “To bow down with compassionate love before the weak and needy is part of the authentic spirit of religion…”

This is the same Francis who refuses to genuflect before Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament at Holy Mass and yet urges Christians to “kneel in veneration when a poor person enters the church.” (Robert de Mattei 5 Nov 16)

“It’s not right to convince someone of your faith … proselytism is the strongest venom,”

In an address of roughly 1,200 words, Francis saw fit to cite generic “religion” and “mercy” nearly a dozen times; even as he failed to invoke the name of Our Lord Jesus Christ – the personification of God’s mercy – even once. 

  • The “authentic” religions, according to Francis, are those that practice “mercy” defined in strictly earthbound, humanistic, terms such as:

Fraternal service, sincere sharing, dialogue … Opposition to conflict, division, intolerance, misunderstanding, closed-mindedness, disrespect, violence and discrimination … Concern for those in sickness, disability, poverty, injustice, conflicts and migrations …

 

November 18, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Pope Francis has criticized the “legalism” of Catholics raising concern about his apostolic exhortation Amoris Laetitia mere days after four cardinals  (i.e. Cardinals Raymond Burke, Joachim Meisner, Walter Brandmüller, and Carlo Caffarra) went public with their request that he clarify it.

“Some, as with certain responses to Amoris Laetitia, persist in seeing only white or black, when rather one ought to discern in the flow of life,” Pope Francis said in an interview with Avvenire. “But these critiques – if they’re not from an evil spirit – do help. Some types of rigorism spring from the desire to hide one’s own dissatisfaction under armour.” 

Pope-francis: review of 2017 – Short summary:

See https://thewildvoice.org/pope-francis-2017/  for the video.

 “In just one year The False Prophet Pope Francis said Jesus “made Himself the devil”; joked that the Holy Trinity is always arguing; issued a stamp with the image of Martin Luther; claimed that God cannot be God without man; advocated for changing translation of the “Our Father” prayer; and much more…(See the link above at The Wild Voice for ‘A chronological review of headlines and quotes of Pope Francis during 2017’. Each quote, headline, and news story in the video is dated and sourced (Vatican Website, Catholic News Agency, BBC, New York Times, La Repubblica, etc.)”

The following is from: https://www.lifesitenews.com/blogs/the-abcs-of-our-concerns-with-pope-francis

  • On January 19, 2015 while speaking of “responsible” parenthood, the pope cautioned against Catholics breeding “like rabbits.”

The Vatican issued a stamp featuring Luther and put out a document saying Catholics now recognize Martin Luther as a ‘witness to the gospel’.

Pope Francis has frequently castigated faithful adherents of the Catholic faith as “obsessed,” “doctors of the law,” “neo-pelagian,” “self-absorbed,” “restorationist,” “fundamentalist,” “rigid,” “ideological,” “hypocritical,”  rosary-counters, and much more.

More quotes from Pope Francis:

From “ https://thewildvoice.org/pope-francis-bad-fruits/

Of the Holy Spirit – ‘Pope Francis’ says:The Paraclete (the Holy Spirit) creates all the differences among the Churches, almost as if he were an Apostle of Babel.‘   (MARCH 15, 2013, VATICAN )

Of Jesus Christ – ‘Pope Francis’ Says:
And it’s fine (the Cross) but not just as a badge, as if it were a team, the badge of a team; but rather as the memory of the man (Jesus) who made himself sin, who made himself the devil, the serpent, for us; he debased himself up to the point of totally annihilating himself.‘    (APRIL 4, 2017 – L’OSSERVATORE ROMANO)

Of the Most Holy Trinity – ‘Pope Francis’ jokes:
Inside the Holy Trinity they’re all arguing behind closed doors, but on the outside they give the picture of unity.‘   (MARCH 25, 2017 – CRUX)

Of God the Father‘Pope Francis’ says:
God cannot be God without man… Let us also think of the Father, of our Father who cannot be without us, and who is watching us at this moment.‘     (JUNE 7, 2017 – ROME REPORTS/VIDEO)

  • Of the Blessed Virgin Mary – ‘Pope Francis’ says:
    She was silent, but in her heart, how many things she told the Lord! ‘You, that day, this and the other that we read, you had told me that he would be great, you had told me that you would have given him the throne of David, his forefather, that he would have reigned forever and now I see him there!’ Our Lady was human! And perhaps she even had the desire to say: ‘Lies! I was deceived!‘ (DECEMBER 20, 2013 – VATICAN RADIO)

On Jesus Pope Francis said:

(See details at: https://thewildvoice.org/pope-francis-bad-fruits/)

‘Pope Francis’ said that Jesus “had to beg forgiveness of his parents and that the Virgin Mary reproached Christ. (when lost in the temple)

Pope Francis’ questionable statements/actions:

‘Pope Francis’ claimed that lost souls do not go to Hell, saying “there is no punishment, but the annihilation of that soul. All the others will participate in the beatitude of living in the presence of the Father. The souls that are annihilated will not take part in that banquet; with the death of the body their journey is finished.

On June 8, 2014, Pentecost, the day that celebrates the descent of the Holy Spirit on the apostles (often called “the birthday of the Church”), ‘Pope Francis’ hosted the first ever Muslim and Jewish prayers and Koran readings at the Vatican.

‘Pope Francis’ sent an iPhone video message recorded by (now deceased) Tony Palmer to a group of evangelicals gathered by The Godfather of the Prosperity Gospel” TV Preacher Kenneth Copeland.  Tony Palmer dubbed this event the beginning of “the miracle of unity” and with the claimed approval of ‘Pope Francis’ said “The real communion is not the bread, but the brother.

‘Pope Francis’ released a video promoting his prayer intention of Inter-religious Dialogue”.  It featured an Islamic Leader, a Buddhist Lama, a Jewish Rabbi, and a Catholic Priest.  The video included images of Muslim prayer beads, a Buddha statue, and a Menorah, but no cross.  All religions were presented equally and the star of the video, ‘Pope Francis’, said “Many think differently, feel differently, seeking God or meeting God in different ways. In this crowd, in this range of religions, there is only one certainty we have for all: we are all children of God.

‘Pope Francis’ said that Mother Earth is the one who gave us life and safeguards us‘.

‘Pope Francis’ approved of contraception in certain circumstances.

‘Pope Francis’ issued an Apostolic Exhortation (Amoris Laetitia) that changes the practice of denying Holy Communion to those who are in ‘irregular unions (divorced and remarried, etc.).

On December 8, 2015, the Feast Day of the Immaculate Conception of the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the official opening day of the “Extraordinary Jubilee Year of Mercy“, as well as the 50th anniversary of the close of the Second Vatican Council, images of animals (and pagan gods and goddesses) were projected onto the facade of Saint Peter’s Basilica at an event called Fiat Lux: Illuminating Our Common Home as an homage to nature inspired by ‘Pope Francis” climate change encyclical, “Laudato Si and coinciding with the COP 21 climate conference in Paris.

Pope Francis’ after being asked about the murder of Father Hamel, a Priest whose throat was slashed by an Islamic jihadist during Mass in Paris, mentioned “fruit salad“, said “If I speak of Islamic violence, I must speak of Catholic violence, and generically condemned “fundamentalists while pushing “coexistence“.

On October 31, 2016, All Hallows’ Eve, ‘Pope Francis’ participated in a joint ceremony with the World Lutheran Federation to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the Protestant Reformation, signing a joint pledge to work to remove all obstacles to full unity; He has also said that he “admires” Martin Luther and that “the intentions of Martin Luther were not mistaken“. He has put a red statue of Martin Luther in the Vatican, and even left Lutherans wondering if they are already allowed to take Holy Communion in the Catholic Church.

  • ‘Pope Francis’ said “It is true that the idea of conquest is inherent in the soul of Islam. However, it is also possible to interpret the objective in Matthew’s Gospel, where Jesus sends his disciples to all nations, in terms of the same idea of conquest.

Comments by Cardinals and Bishops re Francis:

  • Cardinal Raymond Burke:  “Confusion in the Church indicates we may have ‘arrived at the End Times (30 Nov. 2017, LifeSite News)

 

  • Cardinal Raymond Burke: “If a Pope would formally profess heresy he would cease, by that act, to be the Pope. It’s automatic.”

 

  • Cardinal Walter Brandmüller :“That is to say, he who claims that one may enter a new relationship while one’s own lawful wife is still alive is excommunicated because this is an erroneous teaching, a heresy. Whoever does make such a claim [is excommunicated]. And he who simply practices it [adultery] is gravely sinning. And then there is added that whoever is conscious of a grave sin may only go to Communion if he previously has done penance, has confessed his sins, and has been absolved. Thus, if someone thinks he can contradict the defined Dogma of a General Council [Council of Trent], then that is indeed quite vehement. Exactly that is what one calls heresy – and that means exclusion from the Church – because one has left the common foundation of Faith.”   (28 Oct 2017 I onepeterfive)

 

  • Bishop Schneider pronounced that Catholics “have to bear in mind that the Pope is not the creator of the truth, of the faith and of the sacramental discipline of the Church. The Pope and the entire Magisterium “is not above the Word of God, but serves it, teaching only what has been handed on” (Second Vatican Council, Dei Verbum, 10). “ (4 Jan. 2018, LifeSite News)

 

  • Pope (Emeritus) Benedict XVI sent a sobering message at the funeral of Cardinal Joachim Meisner today, saying he was moved at the dubiacardinal’s ability to “live out of a deep conviction that the Lord does not abandon His Church, even when the boat has taken on so much water as to be on the verge of capsizing.” (15 July, 2017, LifeSiteNews)

 

  • Pope Benedict XVI:

“The Pope’s ministry is a guarantee of obedience to Christ and to His Word. He must not proclaim his own ideas, but rather constantly bind himself and the Church to obedience to God’s Word, in the face of every attempt to adapt it or water it down, and every form of opportunism.”

  • Cardinal Sarah:

“The Church today is going through unprecedented exterior and into interior trials. Something like an earthquake is seeking to demolish her doctrinal foundations and her centuries-old moral teachings.” (29 Sept. 2017, LifeSiteNews)

Oath of Allegiance and Changes to the Mass – Setting up the Infrastructure for the New One-World Church

A+M+D+G

Priests beware –

 

 

 

  • Pope Francis issued “Magnum Principium” on 3, 2017 which changes the rules for liturgical translations. It transfers power to episcopal conferences (i.e. to the bishops in their own local dioceses) and thus away from the Congregation for Divine Worship in Rome.

 

 

Secret committee working on an ecumenical Mass reported by Marco Tosatti, who listed Archbishop  Piero Marini and a modernist lay liturgist – Andrea Grillo as being some of those involved.  He claims that Cardinal Sarah has not been officially informed. See “firstthings.com”

This confirms Fra Cristoforo’s article published 10 months previously on 03/01/17.

  • Pope Francis issues an apostolic letter giving local bishops permission to approve changes to the Mass – “Magnum Principium”

See http://www.catholicnews.com/services/englishnews/2017/pope-amends-church-law-on-mass-translations-highlights   and

http://press.vatican.va/content/salastampa/it/bollettino/pubblico/2017/09/09/0574/01279.html

https://www.associationofcatholicpriests.ie/2017/09/pope-francis-gives-local-bishops-more-responsibility-for-mass-translations/

 

  • On 16th 2017, GloriaTv reported that ecumenical Masses had started in Turin Italy according to Fra Cristoforo

https://gloria.tv/article/12HtBydxvUc21fhPZaKobfKV7

  • On 14th Jan 2018, Dr. Kelly Bowring, a renowned Catholic theologian, published a YouTube video: Pope Francis’ Plan to Implement an Oath of Loyalty and a New Ecumenical Mass”

  See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRE7H9ZpBKE  published 14th Jan. 2018

 

  • Fra Cristoforo reveals that the process for the oath for the clergy has begun – outlined by Pope Francis is his new document “Veritatis Gaudium”. This confirms Dr Kelly Bowring’s warning of 14th 2018.

Email received 3 Feb. 2018 from Fra Cristoforo;  Brief note: the oath of fidelity to Bergoglio begins today in the Faculties of Theology”

The new Apostolic Constitution on the Faculties of Theology promulgated today by the Holy See is called Veritatis Gaudium. Signed by Bergoglio. Obviously.

Look what is written in numbers 26 and 27 (referring to teachers) of this Constitution:

  1. 26 §2: “Those who then teach matters concerning faith and morality must be aware that this task must be carried out in full communion with the authentic Magisterium of the Church and, in particular, of the Roman Pontiff …”.

That is Bergoglio. Be careful. In matters of faith and morality. In communion with Bergoglio. Ergo … Amoris Laetitia.

  1. 27: “Those who teach disciplines concerning faith and morality must receive, after having issued the profession of faith, the canonical mission of the Grand Chancellor or his delegate”.

Profession of faith towards whom? Obviously it will be towards the new magistero of Bergoglio.

(Http://w2.vatican.va/content/francesco/it/apost_constitutions/documents/papa-francesco_costituzione-ap_20171208_veritatis-gaudium.html)

Here then launched the famous “oath”.

Below. Silent silent. From the Faculties of Theology.

Those who teach future Priests.

They will promise to teach in communion with the magisterium of Bergoglio.

Not that it’s a novelty. But at least they have “formalized” it.

Now it will be up to the Parish Priests.

Fra Cristoforo

(translated from the Italian)

  • Book of Truth:

In messages dated 13th Sept 2011 and 18th Aug. 2013, entitled Changes to be introduced in the Church which will contradict the word of God” and “They will be asked to pledge their allegiance, through a new oath, to remain faithful to the Church”

Read Prophecies in Book of Truth regarding changes to the Mass and the Oath to be taken by priests:

https://missionofsalvation.wordpress.com/Message-0191/

https://missionofsalvation.wordpress.com/Message-0880/

In Conclusion

“Magnum Principium” and Veritatis Gaudium” 

Canon Law changed to enable changes to the Mass;

and the

Apostolic letter issued regarding the Oath for priests.

The changes to the Mass, and the rules enabling it to happen have been carefully orchestrated, step by step.

The Oath to be taken by all priests is still in its infancy – at present applicable to Faculties of Theology in Universities.

When priests have taken the oath, they will be impelled to offer the New Mass which will be heretical – an abomination.

The new law can affect the very wording of the Consecration of the Mass. When this happens, ‘transsubstantiation” will not take place. The Bible readings used may also be manipulated, so that we hear only half of the Truth, and thus get a wrong impression. It will be more welcoming to all and sundry –  the basis for the One World Church. The Eucharist will now be simply a memorial meal – Jesus will no longer be present. The “Abomination of Desolation” foretold by the prophet Daniel will now be in place.

Priests beware – don’t be caught in the trap. Read the Book of Truth.

Many, many prophecies have already been fulfilled. The True Church – which will be the remnant Church, needs you. You won’t be alone.

The Remnant Army will seek you out to help you, give you food, accommodation, and everything you need to continue your priestly ministry, even if underground.

Any priest who needs help and support, contact any Jesus to Mankind (Crusade) Prayer Group or Book of Truth site in your country.

 

The Nativity Scene Of the Anti-Church

AMDG

Removing Christ from Christmas

We have all seen the efforts to remove Christ at Christmas: “Happy holidays”; removing nativity scenes from shopping centres because they discriminate against other people’s beliefs; in most western countries the “Santa Claus” identity, which is used by retailers to sell their goods.

We have tried to fight back. Some stores (at least down here in Australia) have returned the traditional Nativity scene; I haven’t heard the phrase “happy holidays used in this country, but in U.S. I believe, there is a movement back to “Merry Christmas” instead of “happy holidays”.  We might think that there is not much we can do about Santa Claus – but wait, there is. Children love to hear about St Nicholas and the Christmas traditions of other cultures – e.g. “Christkindl”. We should teach our children that  Santa Claus is just a big copycat – not just in the giving of gifts, but in his attire. The bishop’s mitre of St Nicholas was changed into a silly red hat, and his stately bishop’s robe and cloak changed into a jacket and pants. Even the beautiful “Christkindl” was changed into “Kris Kringle”!

It is easy to say this, but in reality it is difficult to fight. My own children were brought up on Santa Claus as were my grandchildren – but they did know about St Nicholas and I have a St Nicholas displayed in all his glory in the Advent and Christmas season. The children should know that it is Jesus’ birthday.

The Great Nativity Scene Deception

Today, however, I saw in a new post in Veritas Vincit, the ultimate betrayal. – the official Nativity Scene erected outside the Vatican.

You might think that it is all about the Corporal works of Mercy. Corporal Works of Mercy are very Christian- they are all about doing good to our neighbour, being merciful, being humble, giving of ourselves…. Wouldn’t Jesus be proud of us?

But when you look at the scene, it is hard to identify Joseph; and Mary is away at the side somewhere – not even near the Christchild. There are “close to 20 life-size images, making it very difficult to find Jesus, Mary and Joseph”.

Instead, there are figures of a person being visited in prison, burying the dead, clothing the naked. The latter depicts a man who is naked. This is what attracts your attention! It is designed to take the focus away from Jesus, Mary and Joseph. They are completely crowded out.  I would not be taking any young children to see this nativity scene.

It focuses on helping others, instead of adoring our new-born SaviourIt seems to be trying to remove Christ from Christmas – to remove Christ from our consciousness completely. It is a great betrayal  by the man who sits in the chair of Peter, to further remove any thought of Christ. He is paving the way to remove Christ completely – paving the way for the new One World Religion.

Focussing on humanism and secularism are indicators of Communism – the “errors of communism” as predicted by Our Lady at Fatima.

“The wickedness of the beast will be disguised as charming and modern and it will be revealed to all behind the veneer of humanitarianism, charity and ‘care for the poor’. …Every gesture, subtle though it may be, will be designed to insult Me, Jesus Christ, the Son of Man. The deceiver, through his servants, cannot resist mocking Me, for he hates Me. (See whole message at: https://missionofsalvation.wordpress.com/Message-0938/  

(From Book of Truth: 17th October, 2013)

Why go to such lengths?

Christmas brings to mind the truth of Jesus’ birth – not just a myth, but an historic fact. This goes against the objectives of the One World Order.

 “The false prophet will have a religion without a cross…. There will be a counterfeit church. Christ’s church will be one. And the False prophet will create the other. The false church will be worldly, ecumenical and global….It will be emptied of all divine content(Archbishop Fulton Sheen, 1950)

Why do they want to destroy Christmas?

The Book of Truth tells us about the effects of Christmas:

  • “Christmas Day is My Gift to humanity. It is because of this day that eternal life became possible for mortal man.” (22 Dec, 2012)
  • “My Birth is a Sign to all that God the Eternal Father, loved His children, so much, that He made a huge Sacrifice. By allowing Me to come to Earth, to live amongst you all, He showed His Compassion and desire to save you, by permitting My death. If He had not sent Me, man could not be saved.” (24 Sept. 2010)
  • “Nevertheless, it has been acknowledged by devout Christians as a time to reflect on their allegiance to Me their Saviour (25 Dec 2010)
  • “Remember then, at Christmas, that My birth was to help you begin to re-evaluate your belief in the Heavens, to which you are all entitled to be part of. By remembering My Life, you can now join with Me in My Father’s Kingdom, if you open your hearts and ask Me to embrace you once more.” (24 Dec. 2010)
  • “As all of you celebrate My Birthday, allow Me to enter your heart on this special day – for this day is Mine. Invite Me into your home as a favoured guest and introduce Me to those amongst your family, friends and neighbours, who may have forgotten about Me. Christmas may be a celebration about Me, but I am ignored amidst the great rejoicings, which take place.” (Dec. 22, 2014)
  • ” You can only love one God and the only way to My Father is through Me, His Only-Begotten Son. Separate yourselves from Me in pursuits of political campaigns, which strive to promote human rights and social justice as a substitute for the Word, then you will deny Me.” (20 Dec. 2014)
  • “This is the time for My children, everywhere, to reflect on My life on Earth. It is a time for them to consider the implications that My birth represents, for all of mankind. It is because of My birth that man will seek salvation.” (24 Dec. 2010)

Christmas reinforces the truth of Jesus’ birth Christmas might lead people back to God therefore the enemy wants to destroy it.

Another Crusader’s view by friend (Tt Crusader) who regularly contributes to this site.

“Even I’m shocked! What does any of this have to do with the Nativity ???

Notice, for your discernment:

1) the destroyed copula, with the real cupola of St Peter’s in the background, represents the destruction of the Catholic Church,

combined with

2) the Star of Bethlehem which looks more like a falling nuclear missile/meteorite

So the distorted copola/star combination of this “nativity scene” is a message about the upcoming one world religion.”

From the Book of Truth (27 Nov. 2014): The false church of darkness will be built to replace the old after the great inferno. All that was present in my Son’s Church will be replaced with all that will be new.” (Mother of Salvation )”

DonnaLiane’s comments on Veritas Vincit site:

Those who have seen it are right in saying that the viewer’s attention is first drawn to the naked man (who is lying down, mind you!) It’s all about vectors. These are lines created which draw your eyes in a ‘path’ so that each element has a particular prominence and order of importance. It is used to greatly emphasize certain parts And in this scene the figures have been situated, framed by the giant tree, to draw attention to that naked man figure first. He is not even realistic!

Homeless people or the destitute poor who cannot even clothe themselves are not going to look like a Greek Adonis, now are they?!! And why would he be lying down, fully exposed in that fashion if he was naked? He would be curled in a ball to keep himself warm. These are either wicked men or very stupid. It must be torture to serve Our Lord in the Vatican these days. Absolute torture. …

…. It’s the context (historical and cultural) which gives meaning to an artwork. In today’s context, they are not portraying the creation of man by God, who at first did not know shame at his nakedness, or the innocence of the angels. They are likewise not pointing to the miracle and beauty of the human form as the Classical Art Movement did. Not in this nude figure, which I think is suggestively posed and prominent in its build, a man that looks physically at his peak. It easily suggests this in its execution of form, but is also interpreted solely in this manner due to the context and culture of our times and our world.
In our times, when would a figure like this one ever represent poverty and someone in dire need? Think of the images conjured of Third World Poverty. Not like this.

In addition, the nude man construct appears jarring, because of the grossly misfitting context in which it was placed; its meant to be a celebration of the birth of Our Redeemer! Love, innocence, hope fulfilled…

As I pointed out before, this is not an emaciated, poor and cold man, weathered and/or beaten by the elements and the circumstances of life, now is it?

Every choice an artist makes or someone who approves an artwork, are deliberate.

Could this be a Sign of the Anger of God’s Son?

You know the old joke; “I couldn’t enter a church or the roof would cave in?”… well, those same people who make jokes like that, are now attending Mass AND receiving the Holy of Holies; without any fear of God; without shame, without a sense of unworthiness or repentance. Could it be that God sent them a sign and the roof did cave in?

In the last week of August, in the oldest church in Malta, in the middle of the night, the roof came crashing down. There was an almost perfect symmetrical hole, exactly in the centre of an artwork of the heavens, as if it came from there… But what’s even more noticeable is exactly where it fell.

It crashed down directly onto the modern altar, destroying it in shocking rubble. The new altar was completely destroyed and the rest of the church completely untouched. The pews were unmoved, neither was the lectern touched. They eerily stand witness to what happened in the middle of the night and seem ready to receive the congregation.

Any congregation sitting in the pew, seeing the destruction of the old altar would be shocked. The symbolism of the old altar left standing in its magnificent beauty, unveiled, as it was, by the destruction of the modern altar, and appearing to almost rise out of, or stand defiantly against the rubble, is not lost on me… It is now the only altar in the church.

 

The reasons why Jesus may be angry with this church are due to the Maltese bishop’s statement which used AL to open the path for homosexuals and those living in other irregular unions, who are unrepentant with no firm purpose of amendment, including but not limited to re-married divorcees, to receive Communion unworthily. First this was theoretical.  Then resisting priests were denounced and threatened with excommunication. Then this evil started to be implemented and thereby defiled the Altar of God and the Holiest Sacrament.

These two articles report the news and the second gives additional reasons why God may have sent this supernatural sign.

Is this a sign of a Prophecy fulfilled?

Extract from the message given to Maria Divine Mercy, below:

 MOTHER OF SALVATION FOR PRIESTS: TO REMAIN TRUE TO THE CHURCH OF MY SON ON EARTH YOU MUST BE PREPARED TO  FEED HIS FLOCK

2013.09.23

My child, many signs will be made known from the heavens, upon the roofs of my Son’s Churches, when the final changes are made in the liturgy of the Holy Mass.
All those who keep their eyes open and their ears alert, will witness the anger of my Son, in a way in which they cannot fail to notice.

(You can read the full prophecy here: https://missionofsalvation.wordpress.com/message-0919/ )

Well, I pondered this and prayed and asked God to send me a sign; some explanation of why this thing in the church had occurred. The message from Blessed Mother is for priests to remain true to Jesus’ Church and to be prepared to feed His flock in the way in which it was meant to be fed; with reverence, respect and belief in His True Presence. Being worthy by obeying His Commands. I know that the traditional priests maintain this teaching and practice, some of the Novus Ordo priests also do. Many of Malta’s priests now, sadly, do not. I then opened my CTS New Catholic Bible directly on this reading: 2 Chronicles 13- 2 and I read through to Chronicles 14: 1-8.

The Heading in my Bible is:

“Abijah and Loyalty to the Legitimate Priesthood.”

13 In the eighteenth year of the reign of King Jeroboam of Israel, Abijah became king of Judah, and he ruled three years in Jerusalem. His mother was Micaiah daughter of Uriel, from the city of Gibeah.

War broke out between Abijah and Jeroboam. Abijah raised an army of 400,000 soldiers, and Jeroboam opposed him with an army of 800,000.

The armies met in the hill country of Ephraim. King Abijah went up Mount Zemaraim, in the highlands of Ephraim, and called out to Jeroboam and the Israelites: “Listen to me!” he said“Don’t you know that the Lord, the God of Israel, has given the sovereignty of Israel to David and his descendants forever? It is an inviolable covenant for him and his sonsYet, Jeroboam, son of Nebat, a servant of Solomon, Son of David, has risen in revolt against his lord; worthless men, scoundrels, have rallied to him and they forced their will on Rehoboam son of Solomon, then a young man and timid, powerless to resist them. Now you propose to fight against the royal authority that the Lord gave to David’s descendants. You have a huge army and stand there with the gold bull-calves that Jeroboam made you for gods! 9 You drove out the Lord‘s priests, the descendants of Aaron, and you drove out the Levites. In their place, you appointed priests in the same way that other nations do. Anybody who comes along with a bull or seven sheep can get himself consecrated as a priest of what is no god at all!

10 “But for part, our God is the Lord whom we will still serve and have not abandoned him. Our priests are sons of Aaron who minister to the Lord and those who serve are Levites . 11 Every morning and every evening they offer him incense and sacrifices burned whole. They present the offerings of bread on a table that is ritually clean, and every evening they light the lamps on the golden lampstand. We do what the Lord has commanded, but you have abandoned him12 See how God is with us, at our head; see his priests with the trumpets, who will sound them to call us to battle against you. Sons of Israel, do not fight against the Lord, the God of our ancestors for you will not succeed.”

13 Meanwhile, Jeroboam had sent some of his troops to ambush the Judean army from the rear, while the rest faced them from the front. 14 The Judeans looked around and saw that they were surrounded. They cried to the Lord for help, and the priests blew the trumpets. 15 The Judeans gave a loud shout, and led by Abijah, they attacked; God defeated Jeroboam and the Israelite army. 16 The Israelites fled from the Judeans, and God let the Judeans overpower them. 17 Abijah and his army dealt the Israelites a crushing defeat—half a million of Israel’s best soldiers were killed. 18 And so the people of Judah were victorious over Israel because they relied on the Lord, the God of their ancestors.

19 Abijah pursued Jeroboam’s army and occupied some of his cities: Bethel, Jeshanah, and Ephron, and the villages near each of these cities. 20 Jeroboam never regained his power during Abijah’s reign. Finally the Lord struck him down, and he died.

21 Abijah, however, grew more powerful. He had fourteen wives and fathered twenty-two sons and sixteen daughters. 22 The rest of the history of Abijah, what he said and what he did, is written in The History of Iddo the Prophet.

2 Chronicles 14

“Asa and his reform of public worship”

King Abijah died and was buried in the royal tombs in David’s City. His son Asa succeeded him as king, and under Asa, the land enjoyed peace for ten years.

 Asa pleased the Lord, his God, by doing what was right and good. He abolished the foreign altars and the high places, broke down the pillars and sacred poles, and cut down the symbols of the goddess Asherah4 He urged the people of Judah to look to the Lord, the God of their ancestors, and to obey his teachings and commandments5 He abolished the high places and the altars of incense from all the cities of Judah, and so the kingdom was at peace under his rule. He built fortifications for the cities of Judah during this time, and for several years there was no war, because the Lord gave him peace. He told the people of Judah, “Let us fortify the cities by building walls and towers, and gates that can be shut and barred. We have control of the land because we have done the will of the Lord our God. He has protected us and given us security on every side.” And so they built and prospered. King Asa had an army of 300,000 men from Judah, armed with shields and spears, and 280,000 men from Benjamin, armed with shields and bows. All of them were brave, well-trained men.

________________________________________________

The connection to me was pretty clear but then on rising, the next morning, Monday 28.08.17,  I opened on:

1 Maccabees 4: 46-51
The heading is:

“The Purification of the Temple”

Then Judas and his brothers said,
    “Now that our enemies have been defeated, let’s go to Jerusalem to purify the Temple and re-dedicate it. 37 So the whole army was assembled and went up to Mount Zion. 38 There they found the Temple abandonedthe sanctuary a wilderness, the altar profaned, the gates burned down, vegetation growing in the courts and the priests’ rooms torn down. 39 In their sorrow, they tore their clothes, mourned bitterly, threw ashes on their heads, 40 and prostrated themselves on the ground. When the signal was given on the trumpets, everyone cried aloud to heaven.

41 Then Judas ordered some of his soldiers to attack the men in the fort, while he purified the sanctuary. 4He chose some priests who were blameless in their observance of the Law and who were devoted to it 43 to purify the sanctuary and remove the stones of the abomination that had been defiled and put them in an unclean place. 44 They discussed what should be done with the altar of holocausts, which had been profaned 45  and very properly, decided to tear it down, that it might never become a reproach to them from its defilement by the pagans. So they tore down the altar 46 and put the stones in a suitable place on the Temple hill, where they were to be kept until a prophet should appear and decide what to do with them. 47 Then they took uncut stones, as the Law prescribed, and built a new altar on the lines of the old one. 48 They restored the Holy Place, and the interior of the house , and purified its courts. 49 They made new sacred vessels and brought the lampstand, the altar of incense, and the table for the bread into the Temple. 50 They burned incense on the altar and lit the lamps on the lampstand, and there was light in the Temple! 51 They placed the loaves of bread on the table, hung the curtains, and completed all the work.

52-54 The twenty-fifth day of the ninth month, the month of Kislev, in the year 148[a]was the anniversary of the day the Gentiles had desecrated the altar. On that day they made a lawful sacrifice was offered on the new altar of holocausts, which they had made. The new altar was dedicated and hymns were sung to the accompaniment of harps, lutes, and cymbals. 55 All the people bowed down with their faces to the ground and worshiped and praised the Lord for giving them victory.

56 For eight days they celebrated the re-dedication of the altar. With great joy, they brought burnt offerings and offered fellowship offerings and thanksgiving offerings.57 They decorated the front of the Temple with gold crowns and shields, rebuilt the gates and the priests’ rooms and put doors on them. 58 Now that the Jews had removed the shame which the Gentiles had brought, they held a great celebration.59 Then Judas, his brothers, and the entire community of Israel decreed that the rededication of the altar should be celebrated with a festival of joy and gladness at the same time each year, beginning on the twenty-fifth of the month of Kislev and lasting for eight days.

60 Then they built high walls and strong towers around Mount Zion, so that the Gentiles could not come in and trample and defile it again. 61 Judas placed a detachment of soldiers there to guard the Temple. He also fortified the town of Bethzur, so that the people of Israel would have a fortress facing Idumea.

___________________________________________________

I think that God takes his Holy Temple, His priests, His commandments, profanation, and desecration of His Altars pretty seriously, don’t you? Our Lady’s message was that signs would be sent on the roofs of her Son’s Churches, showing his displeasure. No matter what physically caused this, the symbolism of that gaping hole and the destroyed altar, in the oldest church in Malta, cannot be missed.

God bless+++

The Book of Truth and “millennialism” – a Crusader’s query

A+M+D+G

There are 2 parts to this event – the first being the accusation of “millennialism” by a priest; and the second being the anti-mdm blogsite which also accused the Book of Truth in regards to this. The biggest problem is that people make judgements without knowing the facts. You can’t judge a book unless you have read every word within it. First of all you need to know what the word “millenialism” means and where the heresy comes in (as there are different interpretations of it)

This is our story. I think we can all identify with the issues being faced here and having the occasional doubt , or having someone throw something at us, to which we have no immediate reply. I hope you have time to read it all, as well as the extra articles (with links). I know Donna and I learnt a lot. To begin with, we both only had a rudimentary knowledge of the issue.

It all started on Mon, Jul 17, 2017  when “Crusader C” emailed us

Hi (Remnant Survivor)  & DONNA

perhaps you can help? We are having a bit of a “wobble” here at the moment. One of … priests from…, a beautiful holy priest, came to bless  (a crusader’s)  little house.. She showed him the prayer book and the Book of Truth, neither of these he had heard of before. After a brief look – I’m not sure what exactly he saw – he told her that the Church teaches against millenarianism, that when Christ returns as the Just Judge, that is “it”, the end of the cosmos, no thousand years of the Kingdom.

That really confounds me! I always understood that the “kingdom would come” once the Lord returned, that Satan would be banished from the world and we would enter a Eucharistic age of peace where the Church would function the way it was designed to. I think of Isaiah chpt 2 where arms and war are banished from the nations. And what about Revelations chpt 20 & 21, “See, I am making all things new!”. Even Our Lady of Fatima speaks of a time of peace after Russia is converted and becomes a light to the whole world. Other prophecies of the Church mention a Great Monarch and an angelic pope (who I’ve imagined is St Peter returned in glory). Are we all mistaken? Is it possible that the Church has it wrong in its dogma? This has upset  (crusader N), also (crusader A) – I told him to pray Crusade Prayer 86, “Release me from the torment of doubt”- I have always had answers after I’ve prayed that prayer.

What is your take on this? Have you come across this one before?

In my search for Milleniallism I came across the website…(this is an anti-mdm site)

(See Crusader C’s reply to this article on the aforementioned website – refuting it  –  further down.)

Looking forward to your reply!!

…. (Crusader C)

Remnant Survivor replied:

“Dear  Crusaders C, A and N,

… Milleniarianism or millenialism  is often quoted when anyone speaks of certain prophecies.

It refers to Christ’s reign in 1000 years of peace (Revelation). Some people think that it means that Christ will walk the earth with us at this time.

Other people  (rightly) say that Christ will not walk this earth again.

Many people misunderstand what the Catholic Church teaches about this..

What is in the Book of Truth aligns perfectly with Church Teachings.

I have attached some articles. See if they help you to understand it a bit better.

There are many false interpretations of what this term actually means.

Please forward this to A and N.”

The next day, (R.S.) also remembered:

Hi C,

I remembered some time ago I read about the “middle coming”(St Cyril of Jerusalem).

See documents attached.

Pass on the readings – it is important that people are equipped to fight any arguments which may be used to distract them from the Truth and from this very important Mission.

Most good priests reject the Book of Truth.

Remember it said in Daniel that the Truth would be “locked’ until the end.

Daniel refers to a “future book”.

The readings I sent to Crusader C. were:

And

This famous excerpt from a sermon by St. Bernard of Clairvaux (Sermo 5, In Adventu Domini, 1-3: Opera Omnia, Edit. Cisterc. 4 {1966}, 188-190 is used in the Roman Office of Readings for Wednesday of the First Week of Advent. It speaks of not 2 but 3 comings of the Lord.

See it at:    https://www.crossroadsinitiative.com/media/articles/three-comings-of-the-lord-st-bernard/

  • And also “Millennialism Properly Defined” by  by Ronald L. Conte Jr.
    (very lengthy, but comprehensive, Catholic article).

See it at:        http://www.catholicplanet.com/articles/article126.htm

  • Then I remembered reading an article on the “hidden coming” by St Cyril:

http://biblefalseprophet.com/2016/03/04/st-cyril-of-jerusalem-on-the-hidden-coming-of-the-lord-the-warning/

Crusader C’s final say and Action taken (on 18 July, 2017)

(Crusader C.): “With this particular issue, searching out what Millenarianism actually was (as my Catchesim was not very informative, only a passing remark with reference to Denzinger-Schonberg dogma which I found online) I came across a website, printed out its “refuting MDM” over this issue. As I read it, errors leapt off the page at me. So I sat down and wrote a response, in which the answers actually came to me. This is what I wrote (I think under the influence of the Holy Spirit)

Meantime I have just posted a comment on that blogsite.

Do you know, through every wobble that happens I find I grow STRONGER.

Always, always, I pray the Crusade 86 prayer “Release me from the torment of doubt”  and always answers come to me!

This is what I commented (on the anti mdm website):

‘There’s a TOTAL INACCURACY at the head of your blogsite on “The Millenarian”. You say ‘The Church rejects the notion that Christ will VISIBLY reign on earth for 1,000 years following His Second Coming. Maria Divine Mercy actively promotes this idea.

In fact, NO, she doesn’t! In her messages from Jesus Christ He states quite categorically that He will never walk the earth again – so your words are quite wrong. Anyway, she does not “promote” any “idea”. The words are not her own. It is Jesus making this clear. He also says that no human person can interpret the prophecies and symbolism of the Book of Revelations. He alone, the Lamb, is the one who breaks the Seven Seals, which He is doing in the messages given to Maria Divine Mercy, because, in these crucial times, He will not leave us orphans. We need to understand and be aware of the grand deception in progress.

Yes, agreed, the kingdom to come will HAVE NO END, but for a thousand years Satan will be bound. That does not mean the kingdom will only last for a thousand years, but men and women will inhabit Paradise for that period of time without any interference from Satan; they will live in communion with God as it was originally meant to be, had Adam and Eve not fallen.

Read Chapter 20 & 21 of Revelations. It states that after the Beast is defeated and the devil sent to the bottomless pit, all the souls martyred for their witness to Christ during the tribulation will be raised with Him and will reign for a thousand years. The remainder of the dead will not be raised to life until the end of this period at the SECOND resurrection and the final judgment.

When Christ returns in glory so that every eye will see Him, He snatches all those who belong to Him into the clouds while the Heavens and the Earth are renewed after the devastation of the great tribulation. He returns with all the saints, the 144,000 and a huge multitude from every nation “including those who have come out of the great tribulation and washed their robes in the Blood of the Lamb”.

A thousand years is mentioned THREE times in Chapter 20 alone as if to emphasize this period. Maybe that is why Our Lord, speaking to us through Maria Divine Mercy’s messages, says, “Know that the thousand years referred to in the Book of Revelation means JUST THAT.” (28 May, 2012) “The words contained in My Holy Book, the Holy Bible, do not lie!” (23 February 2012) Perhaps this could be a divine correction of a misunderstanding? But it certainly ISN’T Maria Divine Mercy speaking – as you suggest!’ “

Comment (Remnant Survivor:

Somehow I doubt very much that this blogsite will publish Crusader C’s correction, but at least it gives them food for thought and hopefully plants a little seed of Truth

Crusader C. emailed Donna on 23 July 2017

Subject: Millenarianism

“Good morning DONNA

Thank you for all your input on this tricky subject. And yes, God DOES have a sense of humour – I have experienced that too in my walk. And I do love Jeremiah*, so that was wonderful His leading you and me to that passage. … 

Yes, whenever I have a “wobble” with MDM I always, always, pray Prayer 86 “Release me from the torment of Doubt”. Every time, without fail, the Lord has given me an answer within 24 hours.

As your Mum predicted, Donna, they didn’t publish my comment. That’s Ok, the process of writing it helped me, and others. I sent it to Crusader P … and he has spread it around other …  members. Anyway, thank you again for your concern and all that you have shared. We are all here to support each other in the ongoing journey.   …

God bless you and your family abundantly.

(Crusader) C”

Jeremiah*  – see Reading at end of this article

Days later, (on 22nd July) Donna  replied :

 “Hi C…,,

I know that mum has already provided an answer for you because I didn’t have time – but I rang her to check. I’m going to call this “An answer to Millenialaism” because mum may need to publish some information for others struggling with interpretations. This ( see Bible reading below) is just what God gave me, in response to the priest’s objections but it’s nothing if not direct! 

The evil one is very good at needling us with tormenting accusing thoughts at times including through others. I know that when I have experienced this, and I certainly have, that I have asked Our Lord for clarification and wisdom and He has always provided it in the most amazing way- sometimes sooner, sometimes later, eradicating doubt and it ends up strengthening my faith even further and expanding my trust and understanding. This is actually what he promised to do when we work through these false challenges to His Word or confused interpretations, so it’s no surprise really. 🙂 

For myself, I knew that the definition of Millennialism didn’t exactly match what MDM described but I couldn’t remember what was the difference. I know the Bible itself says there will be 1000 years of peace and I don’t think we can say that has ever happened in History yet, so it must be still to come!

… I prayed and then opened the Bible for an answer to your priest and the ideas that supposedly clashed because God gave me His thoughts. It describes both the priest’s limited understanding and appreciation of God’s Word and plan, and also the chastisement, I think. I opened this on the night you asked me about it:- after asking God for an answer for you. The first line is the funniest. God has a sense of humour! Not what I was expecting! Anyway, I printed the words at the bottom. 

Furthermore, I afterwards opened on another passage (this time from the Book of Truth) under inspiration to do so. I did this today– just before writing to you and I opened on this! What are the chances? I hope God’s Word helps you all therefore and strengthens you also.

 Anything unclear will be revealed in time (and with prayer) to the degree we trust Him.”

Comment by R.S. I love the readings Donna always gets in response to issues and problems we have. It is to affirm all of us that Jesus always answers us when we ask for help.

Donna’s Readings: 

  • Jeremiah 4: 22- Jeremiah 5: 19

22 For my people are stupid, they do not know me; they are slow-witted children, and they have no understanding: they are clever enough at doing wrong, but do not know how to do right.

23 I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.

24 I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.

25 I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.

26 I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the Lord, and by his fierce anger.

27 For thus hath the Lord said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.

28 For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black; because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.

29 The whole city shall flee for the noise of the horsemen and bowmen; they shall go into thickets, and climb up upon the rocks: every city shall be forsaken, and not a man dwell therein.

30 And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life.

31 For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, and the anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, that bewaileth herself, that spreadeth her hands, saying, Woe is me now! for my soul is wearied because of murderers.

Run ye to and fro through the streets of Jerusalem, and see now, and know, and seek in the broad places thereof, if ye can find a man, if there be any that executeth judgment, that seeketh the truth; and I will pardon it.

And though they say, The Lord liveth; surely they swear falsely.

O Lord, are not thine eyes upon the truth? thou hast stricken them, but they have not grieved; thou hast consumed them, but they have refused to receive correction: they have made their faces harder than a rock; they have refused to return.

Therefore I said, Surely these are poor; they are foolish: for they know not the way of the Lord, nor the judgment of their God.

I will get me unto the great men, and will speak unto them; for they have known the way of the Lord, and the judgment of their God: but these have altogether broken the yoke, and burst the bonds.

Wherefore a lion out of the forest shall slay them, and a wolf of the evenings shall spoil them, a leopard shall watch over their cities: every one that goeth out thence shall be torn in pieces: because their transgressions are many, and their backslidings are increased.

How shall I pardon thee for this? thy children have forsaken me, and sworn by them that are no gods: when I had fed them to the full, they then committed adultery, and assembled themselves by troops in the harlots’ houses.

They were as fed horses in the morning: every one neighed after his neighbour’s wife.

Shall I not visit for these things? saith the Lord: and shall not my soul be avenged on such a nation as this?

10 Go ye up upon her walls, and destroy; but make not a full end: take away her battlements; for they are not the Lord’s.

11 For the house of Israel and the house of Judah have dealt very treacherously against me, saith the Lord.

12 They have belied the Lord, and said, It is not he; neither shall evil come upon us; neither shall we see sword nor famine:

13 And the prophets shall become wind, and the word is not in them: thus shall it be done unto them.

14 Wherefore thus saith the Lord God of hosts, Because ye speak this word, behold, I will make my words in thy mouth fire, and this people wood, and it shall devour them.

15 Lo, I will bring a nation upon you from far, O house of Israel, saith the Lord: it is a mighty nation, it is an ancient nation, a nation whose language thou knowest not, neither understandest what they say.

16 Their quiver is as an open sepulchre, they are all mighty men.

17 And they shall eat up thine harvest, and thy bread, which thy sons and thy daughters should eat: they shall eat up thy flocks and thine herds: they shall eat up thy vines and thy fig trees: they shall impoverish thy fenced cities, wherein thou trustedst, with the sword.

18 Nevertheless in those days, saith the Lord, I will not make a full end with you.

19 And it shall come to pass, when ye shall say, Wherefore doeth the Lord our God all these things unto us? then shalt thou answer them, Like as ye have forsaken me, and served strange gods in your land, so shall ye serve strangers in a land that is not your’s.

20 Declare this in the house of Jacob, and publish it in Judah, saying,

21 Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not:

22 Fear ye not me? saith the Lord: will ye not tremble at my presence, which have placed the sand for the bound of the sea by a perpetual decree, that it cannot pass it: and though the waves thereof toss themselves, yet can they not prevail; though they roar, yet can they not pass over it?

23 But this people hath a revolting and a rebellious heart; they are revolted and gone.

24 Neither say they in their heart, Let us now fear the Lord our God, that giveth rain, both the former and the latter, in his season: he reserveth unto us the appointed weeks of the harvest.

25 Your iniquities have turned away these things, and your sins have withholden good things from you.

26 For among my people are found wicked men: they lay wait, as he that setteth snares; they set a trap, they catch men.

27 As a cage is full of birds, so are their houses full of deceit: therefore they are become great, and waxen rich.

Following is the reading from the Book of Truth Donna opened up – days later – just before she replied to Crusader C’s email:

June 9, 2013

My beloved daughter, the pain you endure physically at this time is to save souls, who are so far removed from Me, that were you not to offer this to Me as a victim soul, they would be lost to Me forever. Always remember how much it hurts Me and breaks My Heart when I lose even just one soul.

My Love for humanity remains intact, for nothing could ever stop Me from loving each precious soul. I love them so much that the Gifts I have given you, My daughter, of seeing all of God’s children as He sees them, with a purity of heart, is never ending. This is why you suffer so much, My little one. It is not because of those whose anger insults you, but it is because of those souls who are in terrible darkness and whose destiny terrifies you, that you endure these new physical afflictions.

Please understand that when you become impatient and upset, because of these painful trials, that they are nothing compared to the intense suffering which faces those souls who will be taken by the beast. It will mean nothing when compared to souls who must endure the pain of suffering in Purgatory. How little this will mean to you when you see how I will pluck those souls, who otherwise would not be able to save themselves, from the evil grasp of the beast.

My daughter, no matter how painful this suffering is, it will not matter when I unite God’s children, when the most Glorious Paradise will descend on the Great Day. When the New Jerusalem comes down upon the world to the sound of trumpets, the lights will fill the skies and all will be silent then before the sound of angels, whose singing will reach every soul before the final moment.

This will be the last hour when I come to Judge the living and the dead. 

Your Jesus
