There have been many miracles of the Eucharist in the last 2000 years. The one that might be the most well known is that of the miracle of Lanciano.

In the 8th century AD, a Basilian monk doubted the True Presence. During Mass, at the Consecration, the Host started to bleed. The wine also changed and eventually formed into 5 lumps of coagulated Blood, all different sizes. These can still be seen preserved in the church at Lanciano, Italy today.

In the 1970’s a scientific investigation was carried out, without the scientist knowing where the fragment had come from. The results (and pictures of various stages of the investigation)  can be seen in the church today.

It was conducted by Prof. Odoardo Linoli, eminent Professor in Anatomy and Pathological Histology and in Chemistry and Clinical Microscopy. He was assisted by Prof. Ruggero Bertelli of the University of Siena.

These analyses sustained the following conclusions:

      • The Flesh is real Flesh. The Blood is real Blood.
      • The Flesh and the Blood belong to the human species.
      • The Flesh consists of the muscular tissue of the heart.
      • In the Flesh we see present in section: the myocardium, the endocardium, the vagus nerve and also the left ventricle of the heart for the large thickness of the myocardium.
      • The Flesh is a “HEART” complete in its essential structure.
      • The Flesh and the Blood have the same blood-type: AB (Blood-type identical to that which Prof. Baima Bollone uncovered in the Holy Shroud of Turin).
      • In the Blood there were found proteins in the same normal proportions (percentage-wise) as are found in the sero-proteic make-up of fresh normal blood (although the anaylsis was performed centuries later).
      • In the Blood there were also found these minerals: chlorides, phosphorus, magnesium, potassium, sodium and calcium.
      • The preservation of the Flesh and of the Blood, which were left in their natural state for twelve centuries, and exposed to the action of atmospheric and biological agents, remains an extraordinary phenomenon. They remain to this day.

At Lanciano, there is a side room where Newspaper articles and the various results and pictures of slides from the scientific investigation can be seen.

I have also read elsewhere, that the lumps of Blood, each of a different size, all weighed exactly the same , and when weighed all together, still weighed the same!

This affirms for us that the Holy Eucharist is the Sacred Heart of Jesus

In actual fact, many other authentic Eucharistic miracles also exist.

When we receive Jesus in Holy Communion, we are filled with His Love and Peace. Our Divine King, humbles Himself to become one with us. Receive Jesus frequently, with a pure heart, in order to obtain great graces and eternal life. He loves us so much!

But he is not loved in return!!!

The Sacred Heart and St Margaret Mary Alacoque (1600’s)

The first revelation occurred on December 27th, 1673, when Sister Margaret Mary, was praying before the Blessed Sacrament. Our Lord revealed to her great secrets of His love, represented by His Sacred Heart.

The 3rd revelation occurred in June, 1674. Sr Margaret Mary was adoring the Blessed Sacrament. He told her how greatly He loved mankind (suffering and dying for them). But then He said that in return for this Great Love, He has only received ingratitude and contempt. The only return He receives for His eagerness to love mankind is rejection and coldness.

The 4th revelation  took place in June, 1675. Again, Margaret Mary was praying before the Blessed Sacrament, when our Lord showed her His Sacred Heart. He said:

“Behold the Heart which has so loved men that it has spared nothing, even to exhausting and consuming Itself, in order to testify Its love; and in return, I receive from the greater part only ingratitude, by their irreverence and sacrilege, and by the coldness and contempt they have for Me in the Eucharist. But what I feel most keenly is that it is hearts which are consecrated to Me that treat Me thus.”

Jesus requested that we honor His Sacred Heart and make reparation to it; and to make reparation for disrespect towards the Blessed Sacrament.

When we receive Holy Communion –
we receive the True Presence of Jesus
with His Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity.

We receive the Sacred Heart of Jesus.

 

Jesus meek and humble of Heart, make our hearts like unto Thine!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Let us stay close to Jesus’ Sacred Heart – His Eucharistic Heart in the Blessed Sacrament!

We live in difficult times. Time spent with Jesus before the Blessed Sacrament is vital. On Holy Thursday, Jesus asked 3 of His Apostles to watch and wait with Him, but they fell asleep. Jesus needs us again at this time. We do not want to let Him down. In the following message from the Book of Truth, Jesus tells us of the benefits of Adoration.

Abundant love at adoration makes you stronger and calmer

12 June 2011 @ 7:00pm

“My beloved daughter, the graces received by My children at the Eucharistic Adoration are powerful. They not only give you the graces to cope with life’s suffering, they make you stronger in your love for Me, your devoted and loyal Saviour.

The love that is poured out over souls during the Adoration is given in abundance. The soul feels this flood of My graces in so many different ways. The first Gift is one of peace in your soul. You will feel this instantly after you have completed your time in close union with Me.

So many, many of My children are denying themselves the many Gifts I have to offer at Adoration, where you spend one hour of your time before My Presence on the altar. While Catholics are aware of the Power of the Eucharist many do not acknowledge the importance of this most important time with Me in contemplation. They simply ignore this Gift. It bores them to have to spend this extra time with Me.

Oh, if only you knew how strong this would make them. Their fears and worries would be dissipated were they to just keep Me company in quiet intimate reflection. If My children could see the Light that envelops their souls during this special Holy Hour, they would be astonished.

Children, it is during this hour that you become very, very close to Me. This is where your voice, your pleas, your pledges of love for Me, will be heard. Many wonderful graces are given to you, children, at this time, so please do not ignore My pleas to spend this time in My company.

The rewards will make you free of worry
The rewards will make you free of worry, light of heart, mind and soul, and calmer in yourself. When you receive Me during the Eucharist I will fill your soul. But when you come to Me in Adoration I will envelop you to such an extent, that the floodgates of My Merciful Love will saturate your mind, body and soul. You will feel a strength, which will yield a quiet confidence that you will find difficult to ignore.

Come to Me, children, now. I need your company. I need you to speak with Me when My Divine Presence is at its strongest. I love you and want to pour all My graces on you, so you can infuse your souls to My Sacred Heart.

Your loving Saviour
Jesus Christ”

Enough is enough!!!

This was sent to me from a friend.  I somehow missed this, although I must say I am not surprised. I am sure that it is all in preparation for the upcoming synod. A few months ago, there was the statement about “yucca” being used instead of wheat for the hosts used at Mass. Everyone jumped on it immediately, and the Vatican backtracked.

But they won’t give up. It is a clue. They are up to something – something very devious no doubt, and planting little seeds in the minds of the faithful. Okay, so people now know that it has to be wheat. So they had to drop another little poisonous seed – that Jesus is present in the bread!!!

Do they think that they can deceive people? The answer is “yes”- they think they can deceive and mislead people.

In fact Jesus is NOT present in the bread. The bread is bread and after it is consecrated, using the correct substance of wheat and the correct words that Jesus used – then it becomes the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Christ. It is no longer bread.

Countless Eucharistic miracles have proven this point. The most famous and well known is that of Lanciano, which took place over1300 years ago. In the 1970’s top scientists tested a small piece (without knowing what it was or where it came from and testified that it was flesh from the human heart, and was as fresh as if the person had just died. It is the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus. The findings were very comprehensive and amazing. Look it up, if you don’t already know about it.

The pictures below speak a thousand words!!!

“Francis’ heresy on Eucharist.   June 2019

Many of you would have seen these articles a couple of weeks ago, some of you would not.

This is another heresy from the mouth of Bergoglio. But this one tops the lot. It is an outrage. It is denying the transubstantiation …..the miracle of all miracles……… the miracle where at the very centre of our Catholic Mass, with the words of consecration, the unleavened bread becomes the very Body, Blood, Soul & Divinity of Our Lord, God & Saviour Jesus Christ. The Eucharist is at the very centre of our Catholic Faith.

There have been an untold number of Eucharistic Miracles given to us by God to demonstrate to us that His Real Presence is in fact the undeniable Truth,  miracles that cannot be explained scientifically by anyone on the planet…….the only explanation possible…..that God performed these miracles at the supernatural level ie divinely above the natural. The most famous Eucharistic miracle being the one in Italian town of Lanciano over 1200 years ago.

  • Why does Bergoglio never genuflect or kneel before the Blessed Sacrament….it would seem because he believes Jesus has become bread & that it is only bread we have before us.

Please Cardinals, Bishops & priests of Our Church protect your flock from the heresies coming from the mouth & pen of this man, protect Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament from the desecration coming from the sanction of divorced & civilly remarried people receiving sacrilegious Communion ( as in the document Amoris Laetitia.)

Our spiritual Fathers, where are you??

Are you protecting yourselves rather than protecting Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament & protecting us?

Did you not give your lives to help as many of your brothers & sisters reach Heaven & avoid Hell??

It is time, not to be nice in order not to offend, but to be justly angry at the way Bergoglio and all of those on the liberal side of the Church are desecrating and showing so many levels  of irreverence and sacrilege towards the Body, Blood, Soul & Divinity of Jesus in the Holy Eucharist, just as Jesus Himself expressed ‘just anger’ towards the moneychangers for their desecration of His Father’s House. 

Enough is enough!!

  • Francis’ Next Heresy: Jesus “Becomes Bread”

The Eucharist is “Jesus who becomes bread,” and contains the “entire reality of the Church,” Pope Francis claimed in his June 23 Corpus Christi homily.

He went on alleging that we find in the Eucharist God himself “contained in a piece of bread.” These formulations are profoundly heretical.

It is true that the Bible calls the Eucharist “breaking of bread”, “bread of the angels” or “bread of heaven.” However, it is wrong to state that “Jesus becomes bread” – even a first year theology student knows this.

The heretical concept pronounced by Francis is called “impanation.” It denies transubstantiation and is usually explained with the wrong statement that “God has become bread.” Transsubstantiation is the changing of the bread’s substance into the substance of Christ’s body effectuated by the consecration during Mass.

In addition, the Church cannot be identified with the Eucharist as Francis did.

Did God Express His Indignation Over Pope Francis?

by David Martin

Tuesday June 25th, 2019

On June 23, the date on which the Feast of Corpus Christi was celebrated in Italy and the Vatican, Pope Francis in his Sunday Mass sermon made what appeared to be an explicitly heretical statement. Speaking on the Holy Eucharist, he said:

“In the presence of the Eucharist, Jesus who becomes bread, this simple bread that contains the entire reality of the Church [Christ], let us learn to bless all that we have, to praise God, to bless and not curse all that has led us to this moment, and to speak words of encouragement to others.”

The theological fact is that Jesus does not “become bread,” but vice-versa. To say that Jesus becomes bread implies that Jesus changes and becomes something else, i.e. bread,so that only the substance of bread is present in the consecrated Host. This is what Protestants believe.

The truth is that during the Sacrifice of the Mass, the “simple bread” ceases and becomes Christ, so that only the substance of Christ is present….

By saying that the bread “contains” Jesus, Francis is also promoting consubstantiation, the coexistence of two substances together, i.e. Jesus and bread, which is what Luther taught and which the Church condemns.

…

Refuses to Kneel

As always, Francis did not kneel before the Blessed Sacrament at this year’s Corpus Christi procession, but stood between the kneeler and the altar, ignoring the kneeler. He refuses to bend a knee to his God, yet he otherwise loves kneeling, especially in front of migrants, prisoners, homosexuals or politicians. https://gloria.tv/article/unpToENcSRiQ32Fkn42hLsEGW

Quake Jolts Rome

Not surprisingly, an earthquake shook the city of Rome a few hours after Francis’ address.…

Was this a sign from God? Was the Lord expressing His indignation over Francis’ error?”

 

In conclusion:

The very morning Tony M. sent me these articles and information, I was tidying up my trays and found an old piece of paper on which I had downloaded 2 messages from the Book of Truth. This was probably before we had them available in book form.
I, no doubt, was meant to find them!
There were 2 messages – the first we are all very familiar with, but it contained one sentence that made me take notice.
Title:  “Mother of Salvation: Every single Sacrament will be changed beyond recognition.” ( 5 September 2013 @ 9:35am)
In this message it says
“…they will desecrate Him in many other ways. They will change the hosts for Holy Communion and the meaning of what the Holy Eucharist is...”
You can read the whole message here: https://missionofsalvation.com/message-0900/
 
But the next message dated 2 August 2012 was:
Title:
“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)
This message says heaps that we already know but this sentence caught my eye:
“You must never accept that any other kind of bread is the Food of Life.”
Read the complete message here: https://missionofsalvation.com/Message-0863/ 

 

These statements, are not “just mentioned” by the FP. They are meant to prepare us so that we accept more easily what he has planned for what lies ahead. We have to be ready to fight. I think that perhaps I was meant to find these messages.

We have to be ready for all that this Synod sets before us. We have to alert people to the dangers of “altering the faith”, and the deceptions which will lead many, many faithful into adoring “the abomination ” and being led into hell.

The faithful as part of  the Mystical Body of Christ, must do all in our power to alert, not only lay people, but priests and bishops to the danger which lies ahead.

Pray daily for protection and invoke the aid of St Michael and St Joseph in defending the Church.

Thank You, Jesus, for being with us in all our endeavours and guiding us. Amen

 

Pilgrimage Part 4: Lanciano (Finding ‘Food’)

Further trials and difficulties:

Sat. night (July 4) after we arrived, we had difficulty finding something to eat besides pasta or pizza, and we hadn’t had a proper lunch. There was an awful trip on the train but the second part of our journey, with the private driver in an air conditioned taxi/car made up for it. A bonus was that we had a very pleasant conversation with him in English!

We craved salads and meat. We ended up at a copycat McDonald’s and there was salad but we didn’t enjoy the food at all. More to offer up.

By Sunday (July 5), after Mass, we were hoping for a nice meal. The temperature was 37°C. Nothing much was open (being a Sunday), except for quite a few ice cream and coffee places. We should have been happy… because it was the Lord’s day and back home everything would have been open, just like any other day.

We walked around in the heat and one of us prayed to St Anthony and another to our Guardian angels. We finally asked someone in an ice-cream bar. Luckily, the lady could speak English. After checking with her husband, she gave us two choices of what might be open. We chose the destination that was just a bit past the church that we had attended in the morning. It was self-serve and there was lots of choice – salads, pasta, meat and vegies, dessert, fruit and cold drinks. After each difficulty we have, there is always a nice surprise.

The next surprise was the best of all…
