crucifixion – RemnantDisciplesJtM

“My Remnant Church, … will march, just like I did, with a heavy cross, but despite the pain, the abuse, the suffering and the bloodshed, they will endure until the end.”

AM+DG

Today is the Feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross. Jesus told us in the Gospels, that if we were to be His followers, we must walk in His footsteps. Christians can’t be so-called without their crosses.Through His Cross we are healed. In fact through His Cross we are saved.

In the message below, Jesus relates to us details of His Passion and Death on the Cross. He tells us that “The sequence of events leading up to the last day is akin to My Crucifixion, which will be re-enacted in every stage, right up to the day when I will come again to salvage the world.” We will experience everything He experienced. These are the times where we can prove our love for Him, by carrying our crosses, which will be heavier than anything we could have imagined. Let us meditate on these events explained by Jesus,(in message below) and exalt in His Holy Cross, Which has redeemed the world.

I was deemed to be a wicked man and a false prophet and so they scourged Me

13 November 2014 @ 11:10am; Message 1263

My dearly beloved daughter, I reveal to you today one of the greatest mysteries of the end times.

The sequence of events leading up to the last day is akin to My Crucifixion, which will be re-enacted in every stage, right up to the day when I will come again to salvage the world.

When I was in the Garden of Gethsemane, I was isolated, alone and grief-stricken, because very few believed that I spoke the Truth. My love for My Father sustained Me, but My love for humanity meant that the torment which I endured, including mental and physical torture at the hands of satan, was accepted by Me, albeit with tremendous effort.

How I suffered in that Garden. How I begged My Father for relief. How heartbroken I was when the evil one showed Me how the world would end. He taunted Me, laughed at Me, spat at Me and scoffed, when he showed Me the souls of My enemies, who would, one day, tell the world that they served My Church. This was like being shown My beloved apostles, denounce Me and then pledge their allegiance to satan. He showed Me the souls of the faithful, whose voices would be deemed to be that of radical bigots and who would be accused of terrible crimes. I saw those who said that they represented Me, persecute the prophets and the visionaries, as well as those who would seek their destruction. I had to endure great darkness when I saw the world, which I once inhabited, become not only blind as to who I am, but who would never have been told about Me.

I was thrown to the ground, My Face pressed into the soil, kicked, whipped and My clothes torn off by satan. He tormented Me, beyond My human capacity and under extreme endurance of the physical body. Despite this, I was given the strength to continue to face My inevitable Crucifixion, which terrified Me. My love for man, however, superseded My human fear.

My sacred servants, who will refuse to denounce Me, will also suffer a similar isolation. They will be disgraced and cast aside. Their isolation, will not be condemned by My Church, because of fear within it.

When I was scourged, those who carried out the most cruel and vile acts upon My Body rejoiced. I was deemed to be a wicked man and a false prophet and so they scourged Me.
They boasted of their holiness, their righteousness and their knowledge of Holy Scriptures, while they vilified My Body. They failed to accept the prophecy that their Messiah would come to save them. Those who will proclaim My Second Coming will endure the same treatment.

When they stripped Me naked, they wanted to humiliate Me further and so they dressed Me in a red rag that barely covered Me, to further desecrate My Body. But, when they plunged thorns, like needles, into My Head, they declared that the Son of Man was an imposter and therefore not worthy of acceptance. They tore My Eye out of its socket, but the pain was inconsequential, compared with their declaration, that I was not accepted as the Saviour of God’s children.

All of these things are to be re-enacted soon, when I, Jesus Christ, as Head of My Church, will be discarded and My Crown taken away from Me. A false leader, the antichrist, will be substituted as My Head, and unlike the Sacrificial Lamb, he will wear a glittering crown of gold. Beneath this façade will lie a rotten core, and along with the lies, falsities, blasphemies and heresies that will pour from his mouth, he will deliver everything as if it were like the honey, which pours from the honeybee’s hive. Be under no illusion, the beast will have a beautiful appearance, his voice soothing, his demeanour grand. He will be handsome and appealing, but out of his mouth will pour venom that will poison your soul.

When I carried My Cross, I could not do this on My own. It was so heavy that I could only take one step at a time and walk very slowly. My Body was torn in many places and because of the blood loss I fainted many times, so weak was I. I was blinded in one eye and the thorns on My Head meant that the Blood, which poured from My Wounds, had to be continually wiped away by those who walked alongside Me. Otherwise, I would never have been able to take another step forward.

The same will be true of My Remnant Church, the last stable of My Body. They will march, just like I did, with a heavy cross, but despite the pain, the abuse, the suffering and the bloodshed, they will endure until the end. For My Precious Blood will flow over their souls in tandem with My Own Sorrow – My Own Crucifixion. And, on the day, when they will no longer hold the daily Sacrifices of the Mass, My Presence will become extinct. When the day arrives for My Body – My Church on earth – to be finally plundered, crucified and desecrated, all will change forever.

It is My Body, My church, while still alive in the world, which sustains life. But when it is destroyed, life, as you know it, will be over. When My Church is betrayed, sacrificed and discarded, just like My Crucifixion, this will mark the end of time.

Mother of Salvation: Soon you will be asked to give out a substitute for the Holy Eucharist, which will not be the Body of my Son.

2 August 2013 @ 3:10pm; Message 0863

My child, I stand before my Son, at this time, and fall on my face at His Feet in great sorrow. Just as I had to witness His Agony at the foot of His Cross, during His terrifying Crucifixion, I now have to endure His Pain once again.

My Son’s Crucifixion is taking place again as His Body, His Mystical Body, which is His Church on Earth, has to endure a scourging by His own. They, the enemies within His Church, will scourge His Body, tear It apart, mock Him cruelly and desecrate It, before they throw It aside. My Son’s Church is now to be scourged, during what will be the first stage of His Crucifixion on Earth in these times. They will take His Body – through the Holy Eucharist – and insult Him as well as degrade Him. Many signs will be seen of this, as every disrespectful and devious gesture will be made, in order to curse Him. When they have vilified His Most Holy Eucharist, they will then throw It away and soon It will be very difficult to receive It. This is just one of the many plans underway to wipe out my Son’s Presence in the Holy Mass.

Many will see these wicked gestures and know that they are insulting to my Son. Many will protest, but their voices will not be heard. To those poor priests, who will suffer because of this desecration, you must ask me, your Mother, to help you endure such pain. You must never ever tamper with the Holy Eucharist, for It is your only Food of Salvation. Without It, you will starve. It must always be made available to every single one of God’s children. You must never accept that any other kind of bread is the Food of Life.

Soon you will be asked to give out a substitute for the Holy Eucharist, which will not be the Body of my Son. You must remain true to the Gift of the Holy Eucharist even when you are told that It is no longer relevant – no longer acceptable in the new world religion.

Jesus reveals details of His Crucifixion

29 March 2012 @ 1:15pm; Message 0380

My dearly beloved daughter, My time for more suffering will come about, as My Passion on the Cross, will be commemorated.

No man understands the extent of My suffering, during My Crucifixion or the way in which I was scourged.

My scourging was the worst. I was beaten savagely – by ten men and every inch of My Body was slashed.

The Flesh on My Back was torn and My Shoulder Blades were visible.

I could barely stand and one Eye was bruised and crushed.

I could only see through My left Eye.

By the time they took Me before Pontius Pilate and placed the Crown of Thorns on My Head I could barely stand up.

They then stripped Me bare before placing a short red garment over My Head and then placed a palm branch in My right Hand.Each thorn was like a needle, so sharp was it. One of these thorns also pierced My right Eye, which left Me barely able to see.

I lost so much Blood that I vomited and was so dizzy that when I began My ascent to Calvary I could not hold the Cross.

I fell so many times, that it took hours before I reached the top of the hill.

I was scourged and whipped each step of the way.

My Body was bloody all over and covered with a thick sweat produced by a scorching sun.

I fainted a few times.

Much as this was painful and agonizing, the most frightening of all was the hatred shown to Me, not just by the adults along the way, but by young children who kicked Me because they were following their parents’ example.

The screams that poured out from their mouths and the hatred was nothing compared to the fear they had of Me.

Because, behind it all, they were still not sure whether or not I was, in fact, the Messiah, they were awaiting for so long.

It was easier, therefore, to hate Me, denounce Me, rather than accept Me, for that would have meant that they would have had to change their ways.

My most agonising moment was when I lay on the ground on My Side, having been kicked in the back again and saw My beloved Mother looking at Me.

She was heartbroken and had to be held up by two of My disciples.

I could only see her through the one remaining Eye and I could not bear to watch her torment.

The jeers, screams and roars from the crowds of hundreds could be felt from the ground I lay on and it took six hundred soldiers to organise and supervise the Crucifixion of Myself and six others.

I was the main focus of their attention and the others did not suffer like I did.

When My Wrists, at the base of My Thumbs, were nailed to the Cross I could no longer feel.

My Body was so battered and bruised that I had gone into shock.

My Shoulders were dislocated and My Arms were torn out of their sockets.

The worst physical damage was inflicted on My Body, before I was nailed to the Cross.

I let out no scream.

No protest.

Only a whisper.

This infuriated My executioners who wanted a reaction to satisfy their lusts.

I never engaged with them, for to do so would have meant that I would have had to engage with Satan and his demons, who infested their souls.

This is why their viciousness towards Me was so intense.

I was hanging on the Cross for five hours.

The sun was scorching and without clouds to help reduce the burning of My Skin.

As soon as I took My last breath, My Father sent forth black clouds, as well as thunder and lightning.

The storm that took place was of such a frightening magnitude and so sudden, that My spectators were left in no doubt, at that stage, that I was, indeed, the Saviour, that had been sent by God the Father.

I reveal this to you, My daughter, as a Gift to you in return for the huge act of suffering you have offered Me.

Tell My children that I do not regret My Passion on the Cross.

What I do regret is that My Sacrifice has been forgotten and that so many deny that My Crucifixion took place.

Many have no idea as to what I had to suffer, as many of My apostles did not witness My climb to Calvary.

What hurts Me today is that so many deny Me still.

My appeal to you, My followers, is do not allow My Crucifixion to go to waste.

I died for ALL sins, including those committed today.

I want and I need to save, even those who deny Me, even today.

Your beloved Saviour

Jesus Christ

Jesus to Mankind Crusade Prayer Meeting on Wed. 12th April, 2022

Prayer Theme: Discipleship (Groups A&E)

Bible: Leviticus 23: 1-17

Book of Truth: 24 July, 2014

Thoughts: It seems very apt that the reading we opened up on today was about “holy days” and, in particular the “Passover”. We are in Holy week, we have been fasting , and getting ready to offer to the Lord an “unblemished lamb” – we are getting ready for the Last Supper and the Crucifixion. Verse 14, seems to also foreshadow fasting before Holy Communion – “This shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations wherever you dwell.”

The theme is continued in the reading from the Book of Truth, which focusses on Jesus and the Crucifixion. There is much food for thought for us during this Holy Week.

Reading from the Bible

Holy Days.

1 The LORD said to Moses:

2 Speak to the Israelites and tell them: The following are the festivals of the LORD, which you shall declare holy days. These are my festivals:

3 For six days work may be done; but the seventh day is a sabbath of complete rest, a declared holy day; you shall do no work. It is the LORD’s sabbath wherever you dwell.

Passover.

4 These are the festivals of the LORD, holy days which you shall declare at their proper time

5 The Passover of the LORD falls on the fourteenth day of the first month, at the evening twilight.

6 The fifteenth day of this month is the LORD’s feast of Unleavened Bread. For seven days you shall eat unleavened bread.

7 On the first of these days you will have a declared holy day; you shall do no heavy work.

8 On each of the seven days you shall offer an oblation to the LORD. Then on the seventh day you will have a declared holy day; you shall do no heavy work.

9 The LORD said to Moses:

10 Speak to the Israelites and tell them: When you come into the land which I am giving you, and reap its harvest, you shall bring the first sheaf of your harvest to the priest,

11 who shall elevate the sheaf before the LORD that it may be acceptable on your behalf. On the day after the sabbath the priest shall do this.

12 On this day, when your sheaf is elevated, you shall offer to the LORD for a burnt offering an unblemished yearling lamb.

13 Its grain offering shall be two tenths of an ephah of bran flour mixed with oil, as a sweet-smelling oblation to the LORD; and its libation shall be a fourth of a hin of wine.

14 You shall not eat any bread or roasted grain or fresh kernels until this day, when you bring the offering for your God. This shall be a perpetual statute throughout your generations wherever you dwell.

Reading from the Book of Truth

The Truth is usually treated with extreme caution and outright dismissal

15 September 2011 @ 11:50pm; Message 0193

My dearly beloved daughter, you are now witnessing more details of the pain I suffered during My Crucifixion. Abandonment. Rejection. Isolation. Dismissal by the mocking wave of the hands of authority and especially from devout followers of Mine. Even My own apostles rejected me at My time of need. So you must not be surprised that this is happening to you too.

You were also shown tonight a vision of Me standing before My executioners to whom I had to listen when their vile lies condemned Me and the Truth of My Teachings. So too will you and My followers be treated at the hands of those who cannot accept the Truth or who find it distasteful.

The Truth, My daughter, is usually treated with extreme caution, outright dismissal and considered blasphemous at times. Never fear, for the Words I give you are nothing but the Truth. You must never be afraid to publish what I give you. Why would I give you untruths? Why would I try to undermine these Messages by allowing an untruth to enter them at any time? For this would be contrary to My Father’s Will. Even Satan will not be allowed interfere with these Messages, no matter how hard he tries.

As these Messages become more intense, they will become the subject of much debate and ridicule. Yet many will be drawn to them because beneath it all they will not fail to be moved by the Holy Spirit, which moves their souls.In time, they, My children, will thank Me for helping them plough through the disarray of thorny brambles, which will block them from reaching the gates to Paradise, because without My guidance now, at this time, they would be lost. They would not find the strength to be taken safely through the Gates of the New Paradise, the New Era of Peace on Earth, which awaits all those who obey Me and My Teachings.

Bible: Hosea 5: 1-7

Book of Truth: (Vol.5 ) 20th Dec. 2014

Bible Reading

Hear this, priests! Pay attention, House of Israel!

Household of the King, give ear!

For you are responsible for judgment. But you have been a snare at Mizpah, a net spread upon Tabor, 2 a pit dug deep in Shittim. Now I will discipline them all.

3 I know Ephraim, and Israel is not hidden from me:

Now, Ephraim, you have practiced prostitution, Israel is defiled.

4 Their deeds do not allow them to return to their God;

For the spirit of prostitution is in them, and they do not know the LORD. and Judah stumbles with them.

6 With their flocks and herds they will go to seek the LORD, but will not find him;

he has withdrawn from them.

7 They have betrayed the LORD, for they have borne illegitimate children;

Now the new moon will devour them together with their fields.

Thoughts: In the Bible Reading today, God admonishes and warns rebellious priests and laity. We are responsible for (right) judgement but instead some act as a snare and a pit. For example, by failing to discern, failing to judge sin or even to judge our own actions, refusing to hold to account, refusing responsibility and even encouraging liberal or wrongful thinking- which tolerates and even encourages sin! It speaks to Christians – we are the “household of the King”. We can indeed see how the spirit of prostitution is entrenched in God’s people today – how they challenge God’s teachings and openly defy His Word. When Ephraim (the priests) practice prostitution (by selling God’s Word cheaply and betraying Him), Israel (God’s children) are defiled. What is born of this, is not of God. The Church passes on the false teachings, proclaimed by a false spirit (ie, the spirit of prostitution) which are the ‘illegitimate child’ of modernism. As God says, they will stumble and fall, taking Judah with them. Judah was one of the 12 tribes of Israel. .We thought it is possible that Judah represents our neighbours – all other Christian churches – all the followers of Christ.

What intrigued us, is the reference to the “new moon” in the last line. The previous night there was a total lunar eclipse with a blood red moon.

It is a warning; as if (yet another) plague is coming as a chastisement.

Where we live that is indeed the case; a mice and locust plague is in the process of travelling towards, and has almost reached, us. It is literally devouring the fields and grain. This will cause food scarcities, possibly famine… and this after having already suffered extensive drought, bushfires, floods and numerous sufferings due to the bio-war!

Readings from the Book of Truth

Oh what joy it would bring Me were they to turn to Me on Christmas Day

22 December 2014 @ 8:45pm; Message 1293

My dearly beloved daughter, this is a message for the world, for Christmas Day. 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. Allow mention of Me to gladden your hearts, to bring you joy and to bring you hope for the future – a future I secured for you from the day I was born.

Remind those who no longer revere Me, of the love that I have for them and how I long to be part of their lives again. Oh what joy it would bring Me were they to turn to Me on Christmas Day and ask Me to bring them My Peace and My Love. If they would come to Me on Christmas Day I would envelop them into the safety of My Divine refuge and never let them separate from Me again.

My beloved followers, you are My Family, and I am your family. Through My Mercy, I take you into the Bosom of My Beloved Father, who loves you with the passion of a tender-hearted parent. Oh how He loves you and how much pleasure He feels when you acknowledge Me, and call on Me, for My Help.

You mean everything to Me and My Love for you is all encompassing, way beyond your comprehension. It is therefore with a fiery compassion and fierce determination that I will fight for every one of you, to save you from the wickedness of My enemies. I guard your souls with great jealousy and will fight the good fight to bring you safe and sound into My Kingdom. No matter how I am opposed; how much Christians have to suffer humiliation in My Name; however much seduction is placed before you by My adversary – I will win this battle for souls. That is a fact for nothing can stand between God and His children for He will not permit it. The man who does, will be toppled. Hatred will be destroyed and lies will be revealed for the shallowness upon which they were created. The Truth will stand the test of time.

I am coming soon to unite God’s children – His precious family. Lift your hearts, do not allow My foes to dampen your spirit and let hope be your only thought. Have complete confidence in My Great Mercy and be ready to welcome Me, your Saviour and Redeemer, back into your lives. Rejoice, for My Promises will bring with them a cause for the greatest joy. This Christmas will be joyful, for My Time is short.

My pain is even greater today than it was during My Crucifixion

13 April 2011 @ 11:00pm; Message 0060

My dearly beloved daughter, I cry with great sadness tonight at the sins of mankind, which have increased with great intensity, as the time for the world to commemorate My Passion on the Cross draws nearer. My pain is even greater than it was when I was first crucified. I Am now reliving the Agony I endured, as the sins of mankind pierce My Heart like a sword, that is longer, sharper and more painful. Hear My pleas. Hear My cries. All of you, comfort Me in this deep agony I endure today.

Our Lady and the aborted CR31-32pg45 I have to witness, daily, the deep sorrow, the pain and torture inflicted by man, on man, by man, on children. These murderers suffer no remorse, so infected are their dark souls by Satan, the deceiver. He shows no compassion for any of you, because he has no soul. Yet, man foolishly succumbs to his temptations like blind men.

So slavishly do they allow themselves to be sucked into this terrible darkness, that I have to rely on those of you believers to pray hard to salvage such souls.

My pain intensifies daily. Sin is not seen by man, for what it is. At its most basic level it is a love-of-self. At its worst, it is a love of all things that damages others, through dishonesty, violence, abuse and murder. Why do people turn a blind eye when they witness such atrocities? Those victims are people such as yourselves.

Pray hard for these perpetrators, because they too are victims. They, My children, have been ensnared by the deceiver, yet many do not even accept he exists. The time is drawing close now for My Word to be truly heard again on Earth.

Please, please explain to all that My Mercy is now about to be witnessed on Earth during the forthcoming mystical event. It is important to tell as many people as possible to ask God the Eternal Father, to forgive each and every one of you, for past sins committed. Do it right now and quickly. Save your souls and those of others. While conversion will be rampant, some unfortunate souls will not survive the shock. Pray, pray that they will not die in mortal sin.

Please remind yourselves of My Passion during Lent, by considering the Sacrifice I made willingly for all of you so that you could be saved. Then understand that The Warning, the Illumination of Conscience, is My next Gift of Mercy for mankind.

Spread conversion everywhere. Help defeat the deceiver by praying My Divine Mercy to save souls. Trust in Me now and bring Me back into your hearts. Unite together to save mankind through love.

Your Divine Saviour, Jesus Christ
Son of God the Almighty Father
Creator and Maker of all things

Holy Week Meditations: Sorrowful Mysteries of Rosary Pt.3

AM+DG

The Crucifixion

First Reflection

“And when they came to the place which is called Calvary, they crucified Him there.” (Luke 23:33)

Prior to the crucifixion, we can imagine the infinite beauty of Our Lord, the beauty of His physique and the luminosity of His Sacred Face, where the aesthetic principles of the universe resided. The grace of His gestures, the elegance of His bearing, the sobriety of His manners and goodness must have exerted a strong attraction. When He spoke, who could imagine the tone of His voice, its inflections and unique capacity of expression?

But when He was nailed to the cross, He was deformed, without beauty, and one massive, bloody wound. This great victim was innocence itself. He had never sinned. He was the personification of virtue. He never had the need to make up for anything, but nonetheless, did so without measure.

Why? Because of the gravity of our sins. We should feel deep sorrow and regret at the sight of Him, the Innocent One Who bore sins with the sinner. He Who was most pure, most sacred, carried them for me! This should stir us to a great trust. One who was redeemed at such a price need only ask to obtain the necessary grace to practice virtue and the good that will lead him to Heaven.

Today, Our Lord’s pains are caused by the blasphemies and scorn against the Catholic Church, as well as the worship of the idols of a pagan society: egalitarianism, sensuality, revolt, impurity, murder, theft, adultery. Which of God’s commandments are not transgressed today? What is my attitude in face of this situation?

Facing my sins and the insufficiency of my atonement, I must kneel, strike my breast, and firmly resolve to sin no more.

Second Reflection

“When Jesus therefore had seen His mother and the disciple standing whom He loved, He said to His mother: ‘Woman, behold thy son.’ After that, He said to the disciple: ‘Behold thy mother.’ And from that hour, the disciple took her to his own.” (John 19:26-27)

Saint John the Evangelist was at the foot of the cross also representing a sort of summit. His love had reached a high point. He was the “beloved” disciple.

On Holy Thursday, he had rested his head on Our Lord’s breast and heard the pulses of the Sacred Heart of Jesus then beating with love for all mankind. Later that night, just as the other apostles, he had slept and fled. However, he was the virgin Apostle, the beloved Apostle, and virgin souls, even in deplorable situations, find the means and strength to fulfill their duty.

On the other hand, God protects virgin souls. God attracts virgins to Himself. Thus, not only did Saint John have the honor of being the disciple of love, but also of being present at that summit of love when Our Lord died on the Cross. In this way he represented all the Apostles and rescued the Apostolic College from complete disgrace.

Furthermore, in this zenith of love he received the ultimate reward, because there can be no greater gift than for a person to receive Our Lady as a present. When Our Lord said, “Woman, behold your son,” and then to Saint John, “Behold your mother,” he received a priceless gift.

Third Reflection

“One of the soldiers with a spear opened His side: and immediately there came out blood and water.” (John 19:34)

Our Lord had already died when the soldier, known as Longinus, pierced His side. In this way, Our Lord’s Sacred Heart shed the last drop of blood, the last drop of water, for our salvation. What extreme mercy! What extreme goodness! What extreme compassion!

All the blood in the Body of Our Lord Jesus Christ was shed, to show that He gave us everything. He did this without holding back a single drop, because of His immense desire to save us. One drop of His blood would have sufficed to save the world, yet He shed all His blood to the point that the last drops were mixed with water. He wanted to hold back nothing in order to redeem us.

My God, how many times have I pierced the Heart of Jesus like the lance of Longinus? It could have been through grave sin; but certainly through my chronic habit of indifference, which is the reason I do not change, I do not progress nor do I want to progress. I see others progressing, but I can’t be bothered.

According to tradition, Longinus was blind in one eye. A bit of the water gushing from Our Lord’s side fell on his blind eye, which was healed, and he later became a saint. Who knows, maybe I will also receive this grace of becoming a saint. Oh Lord, at the moment of Your death, I beseech You to grant me this grace.

Fourth Reflection

“And taking Him down, he wrapped Him in fine linen, and laid Him in a sepulcher that was cut in stone, wherein no man had yet been laid.” (Luke 23:53)

Lord Jesus, I contemplate Your body taken down from the cross, Your humanity seemingly crushed, and Your infinitely precious blood shed during Your Passion. Oh, Man of sorrows, your soul and body suffered as much as a man could suffer.

As long as this world exists, You will be our model of suffering with all its nobility, strength, gravity, sweetness, and sublimity. This is a model of suffering not only considered rationally, but also from the infinite perspective of faith; a suffering understood theologically, as a necessary penance and an essential means of sanctification.

Through the infinite merits of Your Most Precious Blood, grant our minds the necessary clarity to understand the role of suffering in our lives and grant us the strength required to truly love it.

It is only by understanding the role of suffering and the mystery of the Cross that humanity can save itself from the tremendous crisis it undergoes. It is just this understanding of suffering that can save from eternal punishment those who, even at the moment of death, reject Your invitation to accompany You on the Via Dolorosa.

Multiply on Earth souls who love the Cross. This is the marvelous grace we ask of You this Holy Week in the twilight of our civilization.

Crusader Will: The Big One? That’s about the size of it!

A quake survivor gets quite apocalyptic in his reactions.

A real apocalypse may come as something of an anti-climax.

Whatever way the era’s set to end,

a further quake could easily preempt all that.

You develop a constant sense of overhang;

The literal is as much on the cards as the metaphoric.

It might be a mercy, to judge by the prophecies.

As long as it’s quick. You don’t want to be trapped

underneath all that rubble, awaiting the inevitable.

Besides, I mightn’t survive the Tribulation

with my soul intact. Better to take me

in the state of grace, not as a total test-failure.

To lose a great deal of your interest

because of seismic shifts is one thing;

to lose your immortal soul

because of the reign of the Beast,

is quite another.

The new earth may be a real draw-card,

but you might have to settle for the old heaven instead,

and predecease the Last Day –

only resurrection seems to require prior crucifixion.

Oh well. you might get that with the Church,

the way it’s all shaping up.

Holy Week – a Time for Fasting and Prayer

A+M+D+G

Holy Week – a time for fasting and prayer

Jesus has asked us to fast until Good Friday
Jesus reminds us to begin the Novena of Divine Mercy on Good Friday
Some food for thought from the Book of Truth (meditation):
Significance and Power of Prayer

1. Jesus has asked us to fast until Good Friday:

(22 March 2013 @ 9:45pm)

“My dearly beloved daughter, I desire that all of My followers conduct a time of fasting from next Monday until 15:30 hours (03:30 PM) on Good Friday.

Even a small token of fasting will glean, for all of you, an insight into My Plan of Salvation and how you can help Me to salvage the souls of all sinners.

It is through fasting that you will become whole again. By cleansing your body, your spirit will be renewed. I also desire that you receive the Sacrament of Confession, or what form of reconciliation is available to you. Please, if you are unable to receive this Sacrament then accept the Gift I have given you of My Plenary Indulgence some time ago.

(Tuesday, January 31st, 2012 @ 09:30 PM)

You must say this prayer for seven consecutive days to be given the gift of total absolution and the Power of the Holy Spirit.

“O my Jesus, You are the Light of the earth . You are the Flame that touches all souls.  Your Mercy and Love knows no bounds.  We are not worthy of the Sacrifice You made by Your death on the Cross . Yet we know that Your Love for us is greater than the love we hold for You.  Grant us, O Lord, the gift of humility, so that we are deserving of Your New Kingdom.  Fill us with the Holy Spirit, so we can march forth and lead Your army  to proclaim the Truth of Your Holy Word and prepare our brothers and sisters  for the Glory of Your Second Coming on earth . We honour You . We praise You . We offer ourselves, our sorrows, our sufferings, as a gift to You to save souls.  We love You, Jesus.  Have Mercy on all Your children wherever they may be.  Amen.”

Then in spirit, I wish you to join with Me, as if you were present with My apostles at My Last Supper. You will share with Me, the unleavened bread and eat with Me at My table. You, My followers, can share with Me, My Cup of Suffering, by your own free will, should you accept My offer.

If you can accept this, you will, in atonement for the sins of mortal man, save millions of souls. I will grant Mercy to the most hardened sinners, in return for your gift of suffering.

Here is the Crusade Prayer for you if you wish to share My Cup of Suffering. Recite this, three times, when you can, but preferably during any time of fasting.

Crusade Prayer (103) To share the Cup of Suffering with Christ

I lay before You, dear Jesus, and at Your Feet to do what You will with me for the good of all. Let me share Your Cup of Suffering. Take this gift from me, so that You can save those poor souls who are lost and without hope. Take me, in body, so I can share Your Pain. Hold my heart in Your Sacred Hands and bring my soul in union with You. Through my gift of suffering, I allow Your Divine Presence to embrace my soul, so that You can redeem all sinners and unite all God’s children forever and ever. Amen.

This sacrifice on your part, presented to Me, Jesus Christ, Redeemer of all humanity, will enable Me to pour My Great Mercy over the whole world.

More importantly, I will save even those who hate Me. Your prayers and sacrifice are their only saving grace, for without this, they would be destroyed by the evil one.

If you do not wish to endure this suffering, I will grant you great blessings and ask that you continue with Me on My journey to awaken the world from its slumber and so I can lift the veil of deceit which covers it.

Your Jesus”

2. Jesus reminds us to begin the Novena of Divine Mercy on Good Friday:

Special Graces promised for calling on Jesus for just one day

14 April 2011 @ 11:00am

“My beloved daughter, thank you for devoting more time to this most Sacred Work. The time has come for all of you to open your hearts to Me, for just one day, to enable Me to fill you with special graces. These graces will now be bestowed on those of you who have forgotten that I Exist, as the time draws nearer to Good Friday.

As the time for the powerful Novena of the Divine Mercy draws close, this time will be used to flood your souls with a special Gift from Me. Do now as I say, and pray in your own words, to Me today. The graces I will give you will not only bring you closer to My Sacred Heart, but will fill you with the

Holy Spirit.

Pray My Novena from Good Friday and include as many souls as you can and I will save every single one.

…

My children, use Holy Week to remind all of the Sacrifices I made for sinners. My Compassion is still strong. It has never diminished for souls, even those whose sins cause Me deep offence. If a soul seeks forgiveness, then that sin will be banished.

My Novena of Divine Mercy will instill the most powerful graces when recited from Good Friday in the lead up to the Feast of Mercy nine days later. By reciting this you will not only save your own souls but millions of others. Do this for Me.

Your ever-loving and loyal Divine Saviour,
Jesus Christ”

3. Some food for thought from the Book of Truth (meditation):

Image result for Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane

(November 13, 2014 @ 11:10am)

“…

When I was in the Garden of Gethsemane, I was isolated, alone and grief-stricken, because very few believed that I spoke the Truth. My love for My Father sustained Me, but My love for humanity meant that the torment which I endured, including mental and physical torture at the hands of satan, was accepted by Me, albeit with tremendous effort.

How I suffered in that Garden. How I begged My Father for relief. How heartbroken I was when the evil one showed Me how the world would end. He taunted Me, laughed at Me, spat at Me and scoffed, when he showed Me the souls of My enemies, who would, one day, tell the world that they served My Church. This was like being shown My beloved apostles, denounce Me and then pledge their allegiance to satan. He showed Me the souls of the faithful, whose voices would be deemed to be that of radical bigots and who would be accused of terrible crimes. I saw those who said that they represented Me, persecute the prophets and the visionaries, as well as those who would seek their destruction. I had to endure great darkness when I saw the world, which I once inhabited, become not only blind as to who I am, but who would never have been told about Me.

I was thrown to the ground, My Face pressed into the soil, kicked, whipped and My clothes torn off by satan. He tormented Me, beyond My human capacity and under extreme endurance of the physical body. Despite this, I was given the strength to continue to face My inevitable Crucifixion, which terrified Me. My love for man, however, superseded My human fear.

My sacred servants, who will refuse to denounce Me, will also suffer a similar isolation. They will be disgraced and cast aside. Their isolation, will not be condemned by My Church, because of fear within it.

When I was scourged, those who carried out the most cruel and vile acts upon My Body rejoiced. I was deemed to be a wicked man and a false prophet and so they scourged Me.
They boasted of their holiness, their righteousness and their knowledge of Holy Scriptures, while they vilified My Body. They failed to accept the prophecy that their Messiah would come to save them. Those who will proclaim My Second Coming will endure the same treatment.

When they stripped Me naked, they wanted to humiliate Me further and so they dressed Me in a red rag that barely covered Me, to further desecrate My Body. But, when they plunged thorns, like needles, into My Head, they declared that the Son of Man was an imposter and therefore not worthy of acceptance. They tore My Eye out of its socket, but the pain was inconsequential, compared with their declaration, that I was not accepted as the Saviour of God’s children.

…

When I carried My Cross, I could not do this on My own. It was so heavy that I could only take one step at a time and walk very slowly. My Body was torn in many places and because of the blood loss I fainted many times, so weak was I. I was blinded in one eye and the thorns on My Head meant that the Blood, which poured from My Wounds, had to be continually wiped away by those who walked alongside Me. Otherwise, I would never have been able to take another step forward.

The same will be true of My Remnant Church, the last stable of My Body. They will march, just like I did, with a heavy cross, but despite the pain, the abuse, the suffering and the bloodshed, they will endure until the end. For My Precious Blood will flow over their souls in tandem with My Own Sorrow – My Own Crucifixion. And, on the day, when they will no longer hold the daily Sacrifices of the Mass, My Presence will become extinct. When the day arrives for My Body – My Church on earth – to be finally plundered, crucified and desecrated, all will change forever.

It is My Body, My church, while still alive in the world, which sustains life. But when it is destroyed, life, as you know it, will be over. When My Church is betrayed, sacrificed and discarded, just like My Crucifixion, this will mark the end of time.

Your Jesus”

And also

Monday, March 25th, 2013 @ 14:50

“ My dearly beloved daughter, the greatest horror I witnessed in My time in the Garden of Olives was the scourge of sin in the time of the end. During the vision, shown to Me by Satan, I saw the fall away of mortal man from God’s Laws. He, the evil one, showed Me terrible images; tempted Me with every reason why I should turn away from the Will of My Father. He wanted to torment Me and so he displayed the power he would still have, despite My death on the Cross.

I was shown the final destruction of My Church on earth; the seizure of power within it by masonic sects; the immorality of man; the lack of shame on the part of God’s children, as they engaged in vile sins of the flesh; the murder of innocents and the falling into error by those who profess to speak in My Name.

…

The time has come for all those who claim to guide God’s children, in the ways of the Lord, to beg Me, Jesus Christ, for the Gift of Humility. It is time for you to listen to the Truth, as it was given to you, for you don’t have much time to redeem yourselves in My Eyes.”

Your Jesus”

4. Significance and Power of Prayer

24 March 2011 @ 11:00pm

“…

My Word will convey the urgency needed to be prepared to open up your hearts to the moment when all will be shown their sins.

By being prepared and forewarned, many, many more souls can be saved. The higher the conversion, the weaker then, will be the persecution, which will follow. My daughter, never become complacent, neither should you be fearful of future events. All will pass and in its place, a happier world with greater love everywhere.

Messages simply to remind all of God’s Existence
Tell My people everywhere that these Messages are simply to remind all God’s children that He Exists. They must also realise that their souls are the most important part of their human make-up. To look after their souls is vital if they are to share in the wonderful future that awaits all.

People simply need to remind themselves of the Ten Commandments and honour them. Then all they need is to follow My Teachings and live their lives as I have told them.

The reason I give prophecies is to prove to My beloved followers that a Divine intervention is taking place. By doing this I hope they will open their hearts to allow the Truth to sink in.

Divine Love brings Peace
Many people pay lip service to My Teachings. For others, they find them boring and tedious. By imitating Me, they are afraid they will miss out on the comfort they believe that material things will bring into their lives. What they fail to understand is that the only real comfort they can possibly experience is Divine Love. This Love can only come into your life by drawing closer, through simple prayer, to Me and My Eternal Father. Once you experience this peace, you will find yourself free from worries and stresses.

No amount of false stimulants can match the euphoria that comes about when you become close to My Heart. Not only does this love pierce your entire body, mind and soul, it enables you to live a freer life. You will experience a deep contentment unknown to you before. Then you will be taken aback at how little the world of material luxury appeals any more. You will lose interest in these things and this will surprise you.

O children, if you could only try to come close to Me, you will finally become free. No longer will you feel an empty despair in your soul. Instead you will be calmer, in less of a hurry, have more time to show interest in others and feel at peace. This will radiate from you. Others will be naturally drawn to you. You will wonder why. Don’t be afraid, for this is the grace of God at work. When you are filled with grace, it is infectious and then it spreads to others through love. Then the cycle continues.

Please remember, children, therefore, the significance of prayer. The power it yields and the speed at which it travels to envelop all those fortunate souls who are drawn into this cloud of love.

Satan’s web of deceit causes fear
Just as prayer and love for one another gains momentum, so too does the hatred that spews forth from Satan. The deceiver, working through these people who have no faith, or who are dabbling in dark spiritual games, spreads his deceit. His web of hatred traps even those on the farthest perimeter,who may feel that they are living a reasonably good life. This subtle web can entrap anyone who is not careful.

The one common denominator all those who become trapped feel is unrest, anxiety, despair and fear. This fear turns into hatred very quickly.

Run to Me, all of you. Do not wait until your life is turned upside down by unnecessary grief. Because I Am always there, watching, waiting, hoping that each of you will let your pride fall away, so that I can step in and embrace you. Go into your church and pray to Me. Speak to Me at home, on your way to work. Wherever you are, just call out to Me. You will know fairly quickly how I respond.

Wake up, children. Don’t you realise by now that you need Me? When will you finally open your closed hearts and let Me in? Do not waste valuable time, for your own sakes and that of your families. I Am Love.

You need My Love to quench your dehydrated and malnourished souls. My Love, once you experience it, will lift your spirit and allow you to feel real love again. This love will then open your mind to the Truth – the promises I made for each one of you when I died for your sins on the Cross.

I love you, children. Please show Me the love I implore of you. Don’t remain lost to Me. There is little time, children, to turn back to Me. Don’t delay.

Your loving Saviour
Jesus Christ

Reading from the Book of Truth

Jesus reveals details of His Crucifixion

29 March 2012 @ 1:15pm

My dearly beloved daughter, My time for more suffering will come about, as My Passion on the Cross, will be commemorated.

No man understands the extent of My suffering, during My Crucifixion or the way in which I was scourged.

My scourging was the worst. I was beaten savagely – by ten men and every inch of My Body was slashed.

The Flesh on My Back was torn and My Shoulder Blades were visible.

I could barely stand and one Eye was bruised and crushed.

I could only see through My left Eye.

By the time they took Me before Pontius Pilate and placed the Crown of Thorns on My Head I could barely stand up.

They then stripped Me bare before placing a short red garment over My Head and then placed a palm branch in My right Hand.

Each thorn was like a needle, so sharp was it. One of these thorns also pierced My right Eye, which left Me barely able to see.

I lost so much Blood that I vomited and was so dizzy that when I began My ascent to Calvary I could not hold the Cross.

I fell so many times, that it took hours before I reached the top of the hill.

I was scourged and whipped each step of the way.

My Body was bloody all over and covered with a thick sweat produced by a scorching sun.

I fainted a few times.

Much as this was painful and agonizing, the most frightening of all was the hatred shown to Me, not just by the adults along the way, but by young children who kicked Me because they were following their parents’ example.

The screams that poured out from their mouths and the hatred was nothing compared to the fear they had of Me.

Because, behind it all, they were still not sure whether or not I was, in fact, the Messiah, they were awaiting for so long.

It was easier, therefore, to hate Me, denounce Me, rather than accept Me, for that would have meant that they would have had to change their ways.

My most agonising moment was when I lay on the ground on My Side, having been kicked in the back again and saw My beloved Mother looking at Me.

She was heartbroken and had to be held up by two of My disciples.

I could only see her through the one remaining Eye and I could not bear to watch her torment.

The jeers, screams and roars from the crowds of hundreds could be felt from the ground I lay on and it took six hundred soldiers to organise and supervise the Crucifixion of Myself and six others.

I was the main focus of their attention and the others did not suffer like I did.

When My Wrists, at the base of My Thumbs, were nailed to the Cross I could no longer feel.

My Body was so battered and bruised that I had gone into shock.

My Shoulders were dislocated and My Arms were torn out of their sockets.

The worst physical damage was inflicted on My Body, before I was nailed to the Cross.

I let out no scream.

No protest.

Only a whisper.

This infuriated My executioners who wanted a reaction to satisfy their lusts.

I never engaged with them, for to do so would have meant that I would have had to engage with Satan and his demons, who infested their souls.

This is why their viciousness towards Me was so intense.

I was hanging on the Cross for five hours.

The sun was scorching and without clouds to help reduce the burning of My Skin.

As soon as I took My last breathe, My Father sent forth black clouds, as well as thunder and lightning.

I reveal this to you, My daughter, as a Gift to you in return for the huge act of suffering you have offered Me.

Tell My children that I do not regret My Passion on the Cross.

What I do regret is that My Sacrifice has been forgotten and that so many deny that My Crucifixion took place.

Many have no idea as to what I had to suffer, as many of My apostles did not witness My climb to Calvary.

What hurts Me today is that so many deny Me still.

My appeal to you, My followers, is do not allow My Crucifixion to go to waste.

I died for ALL sins, including those committed today.

I want and I need to save, even those who deny Me, even today.

Your beloved Saviour

Jesus Christ

JtM Prayer Meeting on Thursday 8th June, 2017

A+M+D+G

Prayer Theme: Salvation of Souls

Overview of Readings

Bible (Douay Rheims) Ezechiel 26:1-11 (City of Tyre – chastisements)
B of T: 6 April, 2013 (Prepare the way; The Mother of Salvation guards this special mission. Difficulties will arise. Trust in Jesus. )
B of T: 14 June, 2011 (We must prepare people for the Warning. Much work needs to be done)
B of T: 29 March, 2012 (Jesus’ suffering at the Crucifixion; Jesus tells us “do not allow My Crucifixion to go to waste”. This message relates to the last 2 – saving souls and preparing them.)

Comment: The readings today tie up with some of the talks we have had this last week. We were asked what have we done in last 7 years. Are we ready for the Warning? What have we done in terms of strategies to get souls ready? We are thinking we have to work more on strategies – flyers, stickers, advertising …

Donna’s comment:

” … we had also just been discussing (at length) the need to follow the Crusade Prayer guidelines as given in the messages and in the red Crusade prayer books. We all agreed that it’s very important to obey Jesus as we are part of His Army. His Weaponry which are the prayers He has chosen, are the finest weapons and most powerful. Who are we to think we know better? We feel that the message on obedience, which was the first reading from the Book of Truth that we opened, directly confirmed this discussion.

We are also not to mix other Mystics, their messages (whether true or false) or other devotions started by other modern Mystics – with the Message of Salvation and the Book of Truth. “

Bible Reading

Ezechiel 26:1-11

A prophecy of the destruction of the famous city of Tyre by Nabuchodonosor.

[1] And it came to pass in the eleventh year, the first day of the month, that the word of the Lord came to me, saying: [2] Son of man, because Tyre hath said of Jerusalem: Aha, the gates of the people are broken, she is turned to me: I shall be filled, now she is laid waste. [3] Therefore thus saith the Lord God: Behold I come against thee, O Tyre, and I will cause many nations to come up to thee, as the waves of the sea rise up. [4] And they shall break down the walls of Tyre, and destroy the towers thereof: and I will scrape her dust from her, and make her like a smooth rock. [5] She shall be a drying place for nets in the midst of the sea, because I have spoken it, saith the Lord God: and she shall be a spoil to the nations.

[6] Her daughters also that are in the field, shall be slain by the sword: and they shall know that I am the Lord. [7] For thus saith the Lord God: Behold I will bring against Tyre Nabuchodonosor king of Babylon, the king of kings, from the north, with horses, and chariots, and horsemen, and companies, and much people. [8] Thy daughters that are in the field, he shall kill with the sword: and he shall compass thee with forts, and shall cast up a mount round about: and he shall lift up the buckler against thee. [9] And he shall set engines of war and battering rams against thy walls, and shall destroy thy towers with his arms. [10] By reason of the multitude of his horses, their dust shall cover thee: thy walls shall shake at the noise of the horsemen, and wheels, and chariots, when they shall go in at thy gates, as by the entrance of a city that is destroyed.

[11] With the hoofs of his horses he shall tread down all thy streets: thy people he shall kill with the sword, and thy famous statues shall fall to the ground.

Readings from the Book of Truth

Mother of God: You have been sent to prepare the way for His Second Coming

April 6, 2013

My child, no matter how lonely or difficult this Mission is, you must always continue to obey my Son. You must respect every request made of you. You must respond to every task expected of you, even if this means you will incur the wrath of others.

Every single one of God’s visionaries, to whom I appeared, suffered by the hands of those who rejected them cruelly. Although many of them were eventually believed, you, my child, will suffer the most because you are a prophet of God. God’s prophets have always stirred up hatred amongst His children, because Satan inflicts his most terrible scourging against those who speak the Word of God.

As the end time prophet, your enemies will consist of, not only those who reject and hate my Son, but those who love Him. Your enemies will outnumber all those who came before you. This is why you must obey my Son at all times and respond to Him quickly, for He does these things and asks you to follow His instructions, to keep you safe.

You have been sent to prepare the way for His Second Coming and with this responsibility will come much sorrow. As the lies, the hatred and the fierce opposition to these Messages continue, you must comfort yourself, because without this Mission many more souls would not accept My Son’s Mercy.

Pray for every single person who flings abuse at you, because when you pray for them, my Son will enlighten them and soon they will open their eyes to the Truth.

I, your beloved Mother, cover you with my most Holy Mantle and I crush the head of the serpent every single time he tries to harm you. So go now, my child, in peace. Trust in me, the Mother of Salvation, at all times as I guard this special Mission. Trust in my Son, for He knows what He is doing. Leave all in His Sacred Hands.

Your beloved Mother

Mother of God

Mother of Salvation

My followers must show courage to prepare others for The Warning

14 June, 2011

My beloved daughter, much work needs to be done by My followers to tell people what they must expect during The Warning. Give them details in advance so that when they see the red sky flare up, a reflection of My Great Mercy, they will know that there is nothing to fear.

Instead, they must rejoice, for here at last, for many of My children around the world, will be the proof they have been seeking all their lives.

Great rejoicing amongst My children is what I yearn for, not tears of sadness. When you see My Cross you will all know then the Passion of My Love for all of you.

Many will weep tears of great joy, for they will know I have come to flood their souls with the grace of redemption. For others who don’t know Me, they will be frightened, for then the true realization of the graveness of their sins will become apparent.

Followers of mine everywhere, I call on you to show great courage by telling My children that they must not fear when they witness this Divine, spectacular display of My great Mercy for mankind. Bring them back into My fold by preparing them. If they will not listen, pray for them.

Your Eternal Saviour and Redeemer of Mankind
Jesus Christ
