St Catherine of Siena – “…the world is rotten because of silence”

AM+DG

 

Today is a most wonderful feastday, when we remember St Catherine of Siena – Doctor of the Church and Patron saint of Italy and Europe.Her writings seem so appropriate for the world today. My favourites are:

“We’ve had enough exhortations to be silent. Cry out with a thousand tongues – I see the world is rotten because of silence.”

“Proclaim the truth and do not be silent through fear.”

“Speak the truth in a million voices. It is silence that kills.” 

“the soul always fears until she arrives at true love.”

“Turn over the rudder in God’s name, and sail with the wind heaven sends us.”

“You know that every evil is founded in self-love, and that self-love is a cloud that takes away the light of reason, which reason holds in itself the light of faith, and one is not lost without the other.”

“Be strong and kill yourself with the sword of hate and love, then you will not hear the insults and abuse which the enemies of the Church throw at you. Your eyes will not see anything which seems impossible, or the sufferings which may follow, but only the light of faith, and in that light everything is possible; and remember God never lays greater burdens on us than we can bear.”

“Preach the truth as if you had a million voices. It is silence that kills the world“.

St Catherine’s key achievements include:

  • Restoring the Papacy to Rome: She is best known for persuading Pope Gregory XI to end the “Avignon Papacy” and return the seat of the Church to Rome in 1377, ending nearly 70 years of exile in France.
  • Political Diplomacy and Peacekeeping: She acted as an ambassador for Florence, brokering peace with the Papal States during the War of the Eight Saints. She was a renowned diplomat, urging Italian leaders to end conflicts and unite for the Church.
  • Theological Writing & The Dialogue: She dictated The Dialogue of Divine Providence, a profound theological work written while in ecstasy, along with 380 letters to popes, queens, and leaders, urging spiritual reform.
  • Doctor of the Church: In 1970, Pope Paul VI named her a Doctor of the Church, making her one of the first women to receive this title for her significant contributions to theology.
  • Patron Saint of Italy & Europe: She was canonized in 1461, and in 1939, Pope Pius XII named her a co-patron of Italy alongside St. Francis of Assisi.
  • Charity and Care for the Sick: Despite her public duties, she devoted her life to serving the poor and sick, even during plagues, earning a reputation for deep mystical experiences and healing presence. 

She is remembered as a “fiery lover of Christ” who was not afraid to hold church leadership accountable to a high standard, frequently calling for reform within the Church. 

 

 

 

“…your deceit, which will cost Me souls, will lead to your ruination.”

Your works for others will mean nothing to Me for you will be judged by your loyalty to the Truth

14 December 2014 @ 6:00pm; Message 1289

My dearly beloved daughter, My people were given a great gift by Me through My Death on the Cross. This sacrifice, given up to redeem the world from certain death, is part of My Father’s Final Covenant before the Great Day when He salvages the remnant from the earth.

Generation after generation spoke of the Truth, contained in My Father’s Book, and His sacred servants endorsed the Word of God. How much you have forgotten and how little you know. Many of those appointed to lead you have erred and their proud heads, held high as they dabble with the Word of God, will hang in shame and fear when they are faced with the warning from heaven.

To these sacred servants I have this to say.

Your works for others will mean nothing to Me for you will be judged by your loyalty to the Truth. I will punish you and My Justice will be relentless until you tear up your pagan laws and proclaim the Word given to you so long ago. Your contempt for the Laws of God brings Me great shame but your deceit, which will cost Me souls, will lead to your ruination. Those of My people, who live by the Word of God, though they are nothing in your eyes, will sit upon the Seats of Judgment when you are called to answer, before Me, the reasons why you misled My people. You may believe that your power and influence is beyond reproach but know that your glory is fading and soon; the gold and white cloaks that you wear will be turned into rags and your glittering crowns replaced with weeds.

For all the sins in the world, there is nothing worse in My Eyes, than those hypocrites who pose as My servants but who do not serve Me. When the time comes when you will blaspheme against Me, and feed God’s children with lies about the meaning of sin, I will send down upon you a punishment so great that you will find it difficult to catch your breath. Hailstones of such large dimensions will hurl down from the heavens and for every church, which has been handed over to My enemies, where they will desecrate My Altars, great floods will destroy them. For every crime you commit against Me, you commit against a child of God. And so, I will send you warning after warning until you reject the new false doctrine; until you speak the Truth – the Holy Word of God – and uphold the Sacraments like you were taught in the beginning.

Through these Messages I will remind you of the Truth and I will continue to warn you until the day that you decide who to choose – Me or those who profess they are of Me but who are slaves to the beast.

Your Jesus
