780. Everyday you must ask yourself – would God approve of my actions today?

The Book of Truth:
“My dearly beloved daughter, I must explain to every single person alive on this Earth today the importance of the time given to them. I have never interfered with the will of man, for this is one of the greatest Gifts given to humanity and it can never be taken away. Satan, on the other hand, interferes with the free will of man and has relentlessly sought to enslave the human mind and steal his soul, right from the start.

Therefore, it is the free will which is given to man, that will be sought out by evil spirits. But it is also through the free will of man that the door to My Kingdom can be unlocked. Because you are flesh, and therefore mortal, the only time you have to prepare for eternal life is now. You must never forget this. You must be prepared at all times, for just as My Father gave you life, so too can He take it away at any moment in any day.

If you were to die now, today, would you be fit to come before Me? Do you know what faults and what acts you have committed, and what hatred you have shown your neighbour, which will be revealed before Me? You must, in order to be given eternal life, know what needs to be done now, today, to make you clean in My Eyes.

To those who condone sin and hurt others, on the one hand and on the other, then pray and lead lives, which they say are devoted to Me, I say this. Every hour, you hurt Me with your hypocrisy. Everyday, your soul becomes more distanced from Me. You must follow the Ten Commandments exactly as they were given by My Father, otherwise, you cannot say you are of Me.

So many souls do not enter Heaven and many must suffer the cleansing required to make them fit to enter My Kingdom. But far more souls are cast into eternal darkness. So many realise how they have offended God, within minutes of their death on Earth. How frightened and sorrowful they are then. They realise that their time for repentance has passed and that it is too late for them at that stage.

Why do you not understand that death can happen at any moment? That you must know, when you offend God, you must strive to change the way in which you behave in order to find peace. When you avoid sin and continually try to amend the way you treat others, only then will you find true peace. When you are at peace in your soul – which can only come about when you fight sin and show remorse for your evil deeds – you become closer to God.

Every day, you must ask yourself – would God approve of my actions today? (What Would Jesus Do? – editor) You will know, in your heart, the answer.

Your Jesus”

Friday of the Fourth Week of Easter
Lectionary: 283

Reading 1 Acts 13:26-33

When Paul came to Antioch in Pisidia, he said in the synagogue:
My brothers, children of the family of Abraham,
and those others among you who are God-fearing,

to us this word of salvation has been sent.
The inhabitants of Jerusalem and their leaders failed to recognize him,
and by condemning him
they fulfilled the oracles of the prophets
that are read sabbath after sabbath.
For even though they found no grounds for a death sentence,
they asked Pilate to have him put to death,
and when they had accomplished all that was written about him,
they took him down from the tree and placed him in a tomb.
But God raised him from the dead,
and for many days he appeared to those
who had come up with him from Galilee to Jerusalem.
These are now his witnesses before the people.
We ourselves are proclaiming this good news to you
that what God promised our fathers
he has brought to fulfillment for us, their children, by raising up Jesus,
as it is written in the second psalm,
You are my Son; this day I have begotten you.”

Responsorial Psalm Ps 2:6-7, 8-9, 10-11ab

R. (7bc) You are my Son; this day I have begotten you.
or:
R. Alleluia.
“I myself have set up my king
on Zion, my holy mountain.”
I will proclaim the decree of the LORD:
The LORD said to me, “You are my Son;
this day I have begotten you.”
R. You are my Son; this day I have begotten you.
or:
R. Alleluia.
Ask of me and I will give you
the nations for an inheritance
and the ends of the earth for your possession.

You shall rule them with an iron rod;
you shall shatter them like an earthen dish.”
R. You are my Son; this day I have begotten you.
or:
R. Alleluia.
And now, O kings, give heed;
take warning, you rulers of the earth.
Serve the LORD with fear, and rejoice before him;
with trembling rejoice.
R. You are my Son; this day I have begotten you.
or:
R. Alleluia.

Alleluia Jn 14:6

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
I am the way and the truth and the life, says the Lord;
No one comes to the Father except through me.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Gospel Jn 14:1-6

Jesus said to his disciples:
Do not let your hearts be troubled.
You have faith in God; have faith also in me.

In my Father’s house there are many dwelling places.
If there were not,
would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you?
And if I go and prepare a place for you,
I will come back again and take you to myself,
so that where I am you also may be.
Where I am going you know the way.
Thomas said to him,
“Master, we do not know where you are going;
how can we know the way?”
Jesus said to him, “I am the way and the truth and the life.
No one comes to the Father except through me.” “

Orthodox (Greek Catholic):

The Conversion of Saul

Meanwhile Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest and asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any who belonged to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem. Now as he was going along and approaching Damascus, suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?” He asked, “Who are you, Lord?” The reply came, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. But get up and enter the city, and you will be told what you are to do.” The men who were traveling with him stood speechless because they heard the voice but saw no one. Saul got up from the ground, and though his eyes were open, he could see nothing; so they led him by the hand and brought him into Damascus. For three days he was without sight, and neither ate nor drank.

10 Now there was a disciple in Damascus named Ananias. The Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias.” He answered, “Here I am, Lord.” …”

“..48 I am the bread of life. 49 Your ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness, and they died. 50 This is the bread that comes down from heaven, so that one may eat of it and not die. 51 I am the living bread that came down from heaven. Whoever eats of this bread will live forever; and the bread that I will give for the life of the world is my flesh.”

52 The Jews then disputed among themselves, saying, “How can this man give us his flesh to eat?” 53 So Jesus said to them, “Very truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. 54 Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them up on the last day; …”

779. The antichrist will be from the east, not the west

The Book of Truth:
My dearly beloved daughter, the world is being prepared for the entrance of the antichrist. He has been groomed by a number of powerful political forces to make his grand entrance.The antichrist will be from the east, not the west, but will be loved, honoured and revered by both and in every corner of the earth. It will start as follows.

The antichrist will quickly bring about, with the help of the enemies of God, a war between two nations headed by two stubborn and powerful leaders. These wars will escalate and then will spill into other countries. When the threat becomes so serious that it begins to affect the most powerful nations, then peace negotiations will begin.

Out of nowhere, will step the beast. And with a skill that will impress the world, he will bring to an end the wars. He will have a powerful voice. He will be highly intelligent and will create an impressive charismatic image. His handsome good looks, charm and sense of humour, will be a like a powerful hypnotic magnet. He will draw great praise from well-known world leaders and the media, and he will become a celebrity. His demeanour will appeal to business leaders, who will see him as being instrumental in creating wealth, as the economies will begin to grow.

So special will the antichrist appear, that nations will clamour over themselves to encourage him to visit their countries. He will be loved and will copy the last detail, every moment of My Mission, when I walked the earth. Preaching of the importance of love, peace and the importance of unity among nations, he will be seen to create great wonders, wherever he goes. This is not a man like any other. This is not a man like any other charismatic figurehead. His star will shine and glitter, like no other before him. He will be seen as a figurehead of the one world humanitarian religion. The so-called success of this abomination will be attributed to him. Everyone will drop at his feet. Images of his face will be everywhere. He will be seen with the heads of many religious denominations. It will soon be said that people will be healed spontaneously in his presence. Through the power of Satan, he will be able to create acts, which will shock many and these will be deemed to be miraculous.

By then, to the ignorant, he will be seen as the Messiah. He will then hint that he has been sent by God to save the world. Many, including those in the world who do not accept My Existence, will be persuaded that this man is the Son of man, Jesus Christ. Those who honour, obey what he asks of them, and who adore him, will be infested with such evil that their souls will be sucked into a vacuum, out of which they will find it impossible to extradite themselves.

Those who know the Truth of My Teachings will recognise the deceit, which is placed before the human race and they will withstand this abomination. Those who say they know God, and are practicing Christians, will fail to understand My Promise to return. When I come back it will be to judge. I will never walk the earth a second time. For all their knowledge of My Teachings they do not understand what I said. I now remind them. I will not walk in the flesh. Any man who says he is I, is a liar.

Your Jesus”

Thursday of the Fourth Week of Easter
Lectionary: 282

Reading 1 Acts 13:13-25

From Paphos, Paul and his companions
set sail and arrived at Perga in Pamphylia.
But John left them and returned to Jerusalem.
They continued on from Perga and reached Antioch in Pisidia.
On the sabbath they entered into the synagogue and took their seats.
After the reading of the law and the prophets,
the synagogue officials sent word to them,
“My brothers, if one of you has a word of exhortation
for the people, please speak.”So Paul got up, motioned with his hand, and said,
“Fellow children of Israel and you others who are God-fearing, listen.
The God of this people Israel chose our ancestors
and exalted the people during their sojourn in the land of Egypt.
With uplifted arm he led them out,
and for about forty years he put up with them in the desert.
When he had destroyed seven nations in the land of Canaan,
he gave them their land as an inheritance
at the end of about four hundred and fifty years.
After these things he provided judges up to Samuel the prophet.
Then they asked for a king.
God gave them Saul, son of Kish,
a man from the tribe of Benjamin, for forty years.
Then he removed him and raised up David as their king;
of him he testified,
I have found David, son of Jesse, a man after my own heart;
he will carry out my every wish.

From this man’s descendants God, according to his promise,
has brought to Israel a savior, Jesus.
John heralded his coming by proclaiming a baptism of repentance
to all the people of Israel;
and as John was completing his course, he would say,
‘What do you suppose that I am? I am not he.
Behold, one is coming after me;
I am not worthy to unfasten the sandals of his feet
.'”

Responsorial Psalm Ps 89:2-3, 21-22, 25 and 27

Gospel Jn 13:16-20

When Jesus had washed the disciples’ feet, he said to them:
“Amen, amen, I say to you, no slave is greater than his master
nor any messenger greater than the one who sent him.
If you understand this, blessed are you if you do it.
I am not speaking of all of you.
I know those whom I have chosen.
But so that the Scripture might be fulfilled,
The one who ate my food has raised his heel against me.
From now on I am telling you before it happens,
so that when it happens you may believe that I AM.
Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever receives the one I send
receives me, and whoever receives me receives the one who sent me.” “

ONE WORLD RELIGION | World Alliance of Religions for Peace Summit Signing Ceremony

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G4hNZqZWsao&t=0s

778. They will lie continuously, and their public homilies will be a nonsense in the Eyes of God

The Book of Truth:
My dearly beloved daughter, it will not be long before the dissidents within the Catholic Church, who have abandoned their obedience to God, will gather together to mount a vicious attack on those sacred servants who are loyal to the Truth.Those disloyal to My Body will change many laws and will create new interpretations of the significance of the Holy Eucharist. Many holy servants of God, and lay people throughout all Christian faiths, will watch as the Holy Spirit will be attacked. Many will be shocked at the way in which My Name and My Teachings will be reinterpreted, so that the emphasis will be on man’s obligation to man. Man will be encouraged to love each other, and put their needs, before the altar of God.

Externally, this approach to Christianity will be seen as a good thing. It will promote the importance of love, but not in a way which is dictated by God. People in high places will be seen to publicly praise one another as they perform religious ceremonies. They will bow to each other in deference and will throw themselves, in adulation, at the feet of the enemies of God.

All these grandiose rites will fool the world and many will not realise the purpose of these ceremonies. These acts, these new homilies and new ceremonies, supposedly to honour Me, Jesus Christ, will instead be black in kind, for they will glorify the beast.

The king of darkness is moving rapidly with his evil spirits, within the hearts of many who have responsibility for leading My followers. Some of these servants do not realise that they are being tempted by the evil one. I say to them – come now. Come to Me through the Sacrament of Reconciliation. If you are worried about your faith, I will enlighten you, but you must rid your soul of pride. It is pride, which fools you into believing that your intellect is superior to that of God.

Others, like wolves in sheep’s clothing, have sold their souls to Satan. And just as he acts, they will be cunning in the way in which they will deceive God’s children. They will tempt others by praising their servants for being holy and this will attract those servants, with a love of self, stuffed with pride, who will follow like sheep. They will lie continuously, and their public homilies will be a nonsense in the Eyes of God. Not one ounce of true humility will be seen in any of their words, although they will go to great lengths to ensure that they behave publicly as humble servants of God. The Power of the Holy Spirit will be absent in their presence, and those of Mine, who truly know Me, will bear witness to this.

So many of My poor sacred servants will be sucked into these lies, which will lead to the desecration of My Body, and many of those who boast of their love for Me, will be the first to plunge the next nail as they crucify Me all over again.

My daughter, the hatred shown to you will come from two sides, as a direct result of the disintegration of My Church on Earth. One side will be those who say they represent My Church on Earth, but who are anything but, for they represent another doctrine. The other side will be My loyal servants, who will not believe you.

You must know that the Truth causes fear and anger. The Truth given to the true prophets of God does not just create anger – because of fear, it causes outrage. Outrage and anger come from the spirit of evil. The evil one, through the hearts of man, will go to extraordinary lengths to stop the Word of God.

Anger against the prophets is a hatred of God.

Your Jesus”

Feast of Saint Mark, evangelist
Lectionary: 555

Reading 1 1 Pt 5:5b-14

Beloved:
Clothe yourselves with humility
in your dealings with one another, for:God opposes the proud
but bestows favor on the humble.

So humble yourselves under the mighty hand of God,
that he may exalt you in due time.
Cast all your worries upon him because he cares for you.

Be sober and vigilant.
Your opponent the Devil is prowling around like a roaring lion
looking for someone to devour.

Resist him, steadfast in faith,
knowing that your brothers and sisters throughout the world
undergo the same sufferings.
The God of all grace
who called you to his eternal glory through Christ Jesus
will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you
after you have suffered a little.
To him be dominion forever. Amen.

I write you this briefly through Silvanus,
whom I consider a faithful brother,
exhorting you and testifying that this is the true grace of God.
Remain firm in it.
The chosen one at Babylon sends you greeting, as does Mark, my son.
Greet one another with a loving kiss.
Peace to all of you who are in Christ.

Jesus appeared to the Eleven and said to them:
“Go into the whole world
and proclaim the Gospel to every creature.
Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved;
whoever does not believe will be condemned.
These signs will accompany those who believe:
in my name they will drive out demons,
they will speak new languages.
They will pick up serpents with their hands,
and if they drink any deadly thing, it will not harm them.
They will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.”Then the Lord Jesus, after he spoke to them,
was taken up into heaven
and took his seat at the right hand of God.
But they went forth and preached everywhere,
while the Lord worked with them
and confirmed the word through accompanying signs.”

Salutation

James, a servant[a] of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ,

To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion:

Greetings.

Faith and Wisdom

My brothers and sisters,[b] whenever you face trials of any kind, consider it nothing but joy, because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance; and let endurance have its full effect, so that you may be mature and complete, lacking in nothing.

If any of you is lacking in wisdom, ask God, who gives to all generously and ungrudgingly, and it will be given you. But ask in faith, never doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven and tossed by the wind; 7, 8 for the doubter, being double-minded and unstable in every way, must not expect to receive anything from the Lord.

Poverty and Riches

Let the believer[c] who is lowly boast in being raised up, 10 and the rich in being brought low, because the rich will disappear like a flower in the field. 11 For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the field; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. It is the same way with the rich; in the midst of a busy life, they will wither away. …”

777. These vile acts must come to pass, as the Earth is being purified

The Book of Truth:
My beloved children, out of His great Love for humanity, my Son now prepares you for His Second Coming. It is because He loves you that He speaks to you now, through His prophets, to ensure that no one escapes His Mercy. Just as God sent John the Baptist to prepare the world for my Son – the only begotten Son of God, the Messiah – my Son now reveals to you the final plan. This final plan of salvation will be similar to His first coming, but with one difference. This time, He will not come as man in the flesh.Now that the Truth is being revealed to you again, my Son reminds you of all that comes from God through His Holy Word, as He prepares the final stages. God’s children were given the Truth when my Son walked the Earth. Now, you will be given the full Truth, including revelations as to the work of God’s enemies, for your own good, lest you be deceived. You must be generous of heart when my Son brings you these Gifts, which will nourish your souls.When I appeared to God’s chosen visionaries, through the years, it was to prepare souls for these times. Now, when you prepare for the persecution, which will be inflicted on Christians, it will be extremely difficult, because it will be a violation of the spirit and this will cause the most hurt. When you know the Truth of the Word of God, and when you know how to recognise the work of the deceiver, you will become stronger. It is far more important to remain true to the Word of God, than to accept lies which will be presented to you by those who do not come from God.My Son will raise you to great glory when you obey His Holy Word and uphold His Teachings. I ask that you show my Son the respect which He deserves. Those who rejected Him when He walked the Earth, finally accepted the Truth of Who He was when He died on the Cross. Those who reject His Word today, will finally realise the Truth on the day He comes to Judge. For many it will be too late.

Pray that all souls will remain loyal to the legacy of my beloved Son, Jesus Christ, for only those who accept Him can be taken into His Kingdom.

Your beloved Mother, Mother of Salvation”

 
 
My dearly beloved daughter, as I continue to cleanse the world with My Gift of the Holy Spirit, greater hatred for Me, Jesus Christ, ensues.
As My Presence increases within the hearts of man, the amount of hatred will be seen through the actions of those who contradict My Most Holy Word.Those who continue to bring in laws, which blaspheme against God, will increase every effort to defile the Word of God. These vile acts must come to pass, as the Earth is being purified. As the cleansing intensifies, so too will the evil of sin be exposed to you. You will notice that every conceivable act, which is against God, will be promoted by those enemies of Mine. Many will profess their innocence, but these acts will not be accepted by those of Mine, who know the Truth. The Gift of discernment, which I bequeath to many souls, means that these evil acts perpetrated by those in positions of power, who control nations, will be seen for what they are – the work of Satan.Satan’s evil spirits have increased their presence in the souls of those who do not believe in God. Not content are they that such souls turn their backs on God, these wicked spirits goad these people into promoting the most vile sins. In time, these souls become so corrupt and full of hatred for God, that they will plunge into a darkness, which will never be able to tolerate the Light of God.Remember, My Mercy is great. It will only be by My Mercy that these people can be saved. There is no other hope for them, for many of these tortured souls are not capable, by their own free will – so infested are they – of asking for My Hand of Mercy. Those of you who know Me and who love Me must help these poor people by begging for the salvation of their souls. You must ask that they turn to Me now, so that I can intervene to stop the persecution they intend to inflict upon the world. You must beg Me, through personal sacrifice, that they are stopped from the genocide they are planning. The worst form of genocide will be seen through unjust wars and the murder of the innocent in their mothers’ wombs.

Your Jesus”

Tuesday of the Fourth Week of Easter
Lectionary: 280

Reading 1 Acts 11:19-26

Those who had been scattered by the persecution
that arose because of Stephen
went as far as Phoenicia, Cyprus, and Antioch,
preaching the word to no one but Jews.
There were some Cypriots and Cyrenians among them, however,
who came to Antioch and began to speak to the Greeks as well,
proclaiming the Lord Jesus.
The hand of the Lord was with them
and a great number who believed turned to the Lord.

The news about them reached the ears of the Church in Jerusalem,
and they sent Barnabas to go to Antioch.
When he arrived and saw the grace of God,
he rejoiced and encouraged them all
to remain faithful to the Lord in firmness of heart,
for he was a good man, filled with the Holy Spirit and faith.
And a large number of people was added to the Lord.
Then he went to Tarsus to look for Saul,
and when he had found him he brought him to Antioch.
For a whole year they met with the Church
and taught a large number of people,
and it was in Antioch that the disciples
were first called Christians.

Jesus answered them, “I told you and you do not believe.
The works I do in my Father’s name testify to me.
But you do not believe, because you are not among my sheep.
My sheep hear my voice;
I know them, and they follow me.

I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish.
No one can take them out of my hand.
My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all,
and no one can take them out of the Father’s hand.
The Father and I are one.

The crowds with one accord listened eagerly to what was said by Philip, hearing and seeing the signs that he did, for unclean spirits, crying with loud shrieks, came out of many who were possessed; and many others who were paralyzed or lame were cured. So there was great joy in that city.Now a certain man named Simon had previously practiced magic in the city and amazed the people of Samaria, saying that he was someone great. 10 All of them, from the least to the greatest, listened to him eagerly, saying, “This man is the power of God that is called Great.” 11 And they listened eagerly to him because for a long time he had amazed them with his magic. 12 But when they believed Philip, who was proclaiming the good news about the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women. 13 Even Simon himself believed. After being baptized, he stayed constantly with Philip and was amazed when he saw the signs and great miracles that took place. …”https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+8%3A5-17&version=NRSVCE;NR2006;SCH2000;ERV-HU;BDS

What work are you performing? 31 Our ancestors ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, ‘He gave them bread from heaven to eat.’” 32 Then Jesus said to them, “Very truly, I tell you, it was not Moses who gave you the bread from heaven, but it is my Father who gives you the true bread from heaven. 33 For the bread of God is that which[a] comes down from heaven and gives life to the world.

GOD GENE – VMAT2 VACCINE- “KILLING SPIRITUALITY”

775. All false prophets will be cast out by Me and punished severely

The Book of Truth:
My dearly beloved daughter, My visionaries, all over the world are undergoing great suffering at this time, as they endure the pain required to save the souls of mankind. They, having offered themselves into My service, will walk alone, as I did when I climbed Mount Calvary, with only the very few who will come to their aid.

Just as those genuine souls of Mine suffer the pain, the ridicule and the rejection, so will those false prophets and visionaries be glorified and they will fool many. The false prophets will rise amongst you and attract praise and glory. Behind their façade of humility and sweet words, will be an emptiness borne from the spirit of evil.

I warn the world not to follow those false prophets, who seek glory
, adulation and praise for themselves, in My Holy Name. No man, sent by Me, Jesus Christ, will exalt themselves in order to get you to fall at their feet. No prophet of Mine will stand on a pedestal and say he is greater than you. He does not have to say he is greater than his fellow brothers and sisters to do this. All he has to do is to preach words of so-called wisdom in a way, which will lead you to believe that he should be praised, for his own perceived allegiance to God. Instead of encouraging prayer and bringing you closer to God, he will command and demand your respect, first. He will do this by showing you the kind of attributes you would associate with devout people. These false prophets will attract souls to them through the sin of pride. Pride, in a false prophet, will attract pride in other souls. One praises the other by using the Name of God to proclaim their greatness.

Be wary of those who will ask you to cover yourself with, what they refer to as, special gifts, which attract the spirit world. You must avoid those who, in My Name, invite you to dabble in spirits, which they say will bring you great peace and comfort, but where God is not mentioned. If you are not invited to bow in humility before God, but instead, are asked to place yourself and your own wellbeing first and before the needs of others, then you must know that could never come from God. You must never place your own interests, or that of others, before God. Everything you ask for must be according to the Holy Will of God.

Many of the world’s false prophets are working with spirits, which do not come from Me. They will promote the importance of inner healing, positive thinking and metaphysics, all of which amount to one thing. Man will be encouraged to exalt himself before God.

All false prophets will be cast out by Me and punished severely. Their punishments will exceed that of ordinary mortal men, because they will be responsible for the loss of so many souls.

Your Jesus”

Monday of the Fourth Week of Easter
Lectionary: 279

Reading 1 Acts 11:1-18

The Apostles and the brothers who were in Judea
heard that the Gentiles too had accepted the word of God.
So when Peter went up to Jerusalem
the circumcised believers confronted him, saying,
‘You entered the house of uncircumcised people and ate with them.
Peter began and explained it to them step by step, saying,
“I was at prayer in the city of Joppa
when in a trance I had a vision,
something resembling a large sheet coming down,
lowered from the sky by its four corners, and it came to me.
Looking intently into it,
I observed and saw the four-legged animals of the earth,
the wild beasts, the reptiles, and the birds of the sky.
I also heard a voice say to me, ‘Get up, Peter. Slaughter and eat.’
But I said, ‘Certainly not, sir,
because nothing profane or unclean has ever entered my mouth.’
But a second time a voice from heaven answered,
‘What God has made clean, you are not to call profane.’
This happened three times,
and then everything was drawn up again into the sky.
Just then three men appeared at the house where we were,
who had been sent to me from Caesarea.
The Spirit told me to accompany them without discriminating.
These six brothers also went with me,
and we entered the man’s house.
He related to us how he had seen the angel standing in his house, saying,
‘Send someone to Joppa and summon Simon, who is called Peter,
who will speak words to you
by which you and all your household will be saved.’
As I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them
as it had upon us at the beginning,
and I remembered the word of the Lord, how he had said,
‘John baptized with water
but you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.’
If then God gave them the same gift he gave to us
when we came to believe in the Lord Jesus Christ,
who was I to be able to hinder God?”
When they heard this,
they stopped objecting and glorified God, saying,
“God has then granted life-giving repentance to the Gentiles too.”

Responsorial Psalm Ps 42:2-3; 43:3, 4

R. (see 3a) Athirst is my soul for the living God.
or:

Alleluia Jn 10:14

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
I am the good shepherd, says the Lord;
I know my sheep, and mine know me.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Gospel Jn 10:1-10

Jesus said:
“Amen, amen, I say to you,
whoever does not enter a sheepfold through the gate
but climbs over elsewhere is a thief and a robber.
But whoever enters through the gate is the shepherd of the sheep.
The gatekeeper opens it for him, and the sheep hear his voice,
as he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out.
When he has driven out all his own,
he walks ahead of them, and the sheep follow him,
because they recognize his voice.
But they will not follow a stranger;
they will run away from him,
because they do not recognize the voice of strangers.

Although Jesus used this figure of speech,
they did not realize what he was trying to tell them.

So Jesus said again, “Amen, amen, I say to you,
I am the gate for the sheep.
All who came before me are thieves and robbers,
but the sheep did not listen to them.
I am the gate.
Whoever enters through me will be saved,
and will come in and go out and find pasture.
A thief comes only to steal and slaughter and destroy;
I came so that they might have life and have it more abundantly.” “

10 You are my witnesses, says the Lord,
    and my servant whom I have chosen,
so that you may know and believe me
    and understand that I am he.
Before me no god was formed,
    nor shall there be any after me.
11 I, I am the Lord,
    and besides me there is no savior.
12 I declared and saved and proclaimed,
    when there was no strange god among you;
    and you are my witnesses, says the Lord.
13 I am God, and also henceforth I am He;
    there is no one who can deliver from my hand;
    I work and who can hinder it?

14 Thus says the Lord,
    your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:
For your sake I will send to Babylon
    and break down all the bars,
    and the shouting of the Chaldeans will be turned to lamentation.[b]

Solomon’s Prayer for Wisdom

“O God of my ancestors and Lord of mercy,
who have made all things by your word,
and by your wisdom have formed humankind
to have dominion over the creatures you have made,
and rule the world in holiness and righteousness,
and pronounce judgment in uprightness of soul,
give me the wisdom that sits by your throne,
and do not reject me from among your servants.
For I am your servant[a] the son of your serving girl,
a man who is weak and short-lived,
with little understanding of judgment and laws;
for even one who is perfect among human beings
will be regarded as nothing without the wisdom that comes from you.
You have chosen me to be king of your people
and to be judge over your sons and daughters.
You have given command to build a temple on your holy mountain,
and an altar in the city of your habitation,
a copy of the holy tent that you prepared from the beginning.
With you is wisdom, she who knows your works
and was present when you made the world;
she understands what is pleasing in your sight
and what is right according to your commandments.
10 Send her forth from the holy heavens,
and from the throne of your glory send her,
that she may labor at my side,
and that I may learn what is pleasing to you. …”

But the righteous, though they die early, will be at rest.
For old age is not honored for length of time,
or measured by number of years;
but understanding is gray hair for anyone,
and a blameless life is ripe old age.

10 There were some who pleased God and were loved by him,
and while living among sinners were taken up.
11 They were caught up so that evil might not change their understanding
or guile deceive their souls.
12 For the fascination of wickedness obscures what is good,
and roving desire perverts the innocent mind.
13 Being perfected in a short time, they fulfilled long years;
14 for their souls were pleasing to the Lord,
therefore he took them quickly from the midst of wickedness.
15 Yet the peoples saw and did not understand,
or take such a thing to heart,
that God’s grace and mercy are with his elect,
and that he watches over his holy ones. …”

12 They stirred up the people as well as the elders and the scribes; then they suddenly confronted him, seized him, and brought him before the council. 13 They set up false witnesses who said, “This man never stops saying things against this holy place and the law; …”

Vatican : The False Prophet in a letter to the Grand Imam, stresses respect for Islam (Sep 20, 2013)

774. Mother of God: To be made worthy of His Kingdom, they must be stripped bare of worldly influences

The Book of Truth:
My child, in order for God’s children to be saved, they must follow the path of my Son. They must accept that, to be made worthy of His Kingdom, they must be stripped bare of worldly influences, which separate them from God.Those who turn to my Son, as they reach out for the Truth, will see a number of changes take place in their lives. For those who do not know Him and who open their hearts to Him for the first time, they will cry tears. These tears will be as a result of the love which He will instil in their hearts and they will be overwhelmed. These are the tears of conversion. Their hearts and souls will be filled with a love, which they have never known before. This is the Love of God and it is a Gift from Heaven.

Soon afterwards, filled with the Light of God, they will attract the darkness of the evil one, who seeks out souls who are filled with this Light. This is when they will suffer by the hands of others, who are used by the evil one, to attack their faith and their allegiance to God.

Those with a simple love for my Son, empty of all human arrogance and pride – who do not succumb to the pressures of those who denounce my Son – will suffer just as He did. They will feel pain when they witness sin, for they feel the same pain as my Son. They will fall and stumble, just as my Son did on the Road to Calvary. For as long as they live, they will feel the pain of my Son’s suffering. This will stay with them until the final purification of the world is complete.

Never feel that this allegiance to my Son is forever tinged with pain only, because it also brings a joy, a peace and a hope, which bring eternal life. You must never allow your love for my Son to separate you from all of God’s children. Instead you must reach out to everyone, especially those who have never opened their hearts to my Son. They need your help. Through the Gift of conversion, you have been given the Graces needed to bring these souls to my Son. You must do this through the acceptance of the pain you must endure, as a soldier of Christ, and by your prayers and sacrifices for others.

Your beloved Mother, Mother of Salvation”

Fourth Sunday of Easter

Reading 1 Acts 4:8-12

Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, said:
“Leaders of the people and elders:
If we are being examined today
about a good deed done to a cripple,
namely, by what means he was saved,
then all of you and all the people of Israel should know
that it was in the name of Jesus Christ the Nazorean
whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead;
in his name this man stands before you healed.
He is the stone rejected by you, the builders,
which has become the cornerstone.

There is no salvation through anyone else,
nor is there any other name under heaven
given to the human race by which we are to be saved.”

Responsorial Psalm Ps 118:1, 8-9, 21-23, 26, 28, 29

R. (22) The stone rejected by the builders has become the cornerstone.
or:
R. Alleluia.
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good,
for his mercy endures forever.
It is better to take refuge in the LORD
than to trust in man.
It is better to take refuge in the LORD
than to trust in princes.
R. The stone rejected by the builders has become the cornerstone.
or:
R. Alleluia.
I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me
and have been my savior.
The stone which the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone.
By the LORD has this been done;
it is wonderful in our eyes.
R. The stone rejected by the builders has become the cornerstone.
or:
R. Alleluia.
Blessed is he who comes in the name of the LORD;
we bless you from the house of the LORD.
I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me
and have been my savior.
Give thanks to the LORD, for he is good;
for his kindness endures forever.
R. The stone rejected by the builders has become the cornerstone.
or:
R. Alleluia.

Reading 2 1 Jn 3:1-2

Beloved:
See what love the Father has bestowed on us
that we may be called the children of God.
Yet so we are.
The reason the world does not know us
is that it did not know him.
Beloved, we are God’s children now;
what we shall be has not yet been revealed.
We do know that when it is revealed we shall be like him,
for we shall see him as he is.

Alleluia Jn 10:14

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
I am the good shepherd, says the Lord;
I know my sheep, and mine know me.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Gospel Jn 10:11-18

Jesus said:
“I am the good shepherd.
A good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.
A hired man, who is not a shepherd
and whose sheep are not his own,
sees a wolf coming and leaves the sheep and runs away,
and the wolf catches and scatters them.

This is because he works for pay and has no concern for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd,
and I know mine and mine know me,
just as the Father knows me and I know the Father;
and I will lay down my life for the sheep.
I have other sheep that do not belong to this fold.
These also I must lead, and they will hear my voice,
and there will be one flock, one shepherd.
This is why the Father loves me,
because I lay down my life in order to take it up again.
No one takes it from me, but I lay it down on my own.
I have power to lay it down, and power to take it up again.
This command I have received from my Father.” “

Seven Chosen to Serve

Now during those days, when the disciples were increasing in number, the Hellenists complained against the Hebrews because their widows were being neglected in the daily distribution of food. And the twelve called together the whole community of the disciples and said, “It is not right that we should neglect the word of God in order to wait on tables.[a] Therefore, friends,[b] select from among yourselves seven men of good standing, full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may appoint to this task, while we, for our part, will devote ourselves to prayer and to serving the word.” …”

43 Joseph of Arimathea, a respected member of the council, who was also himself waiting expectantly for the kingdom of God, went boldly to Pilate and asked for the body of Jesus. …”

Pilate Hands Jesus over to Be CrucifiedNow at the festival he used to release a prisoner for them, anyone for whom they asked. Now a man called Barabbas was in prison with the rebels who had committed murder during the insurrection. So the crowd came and began to ask Pilate to do for them according to his custom. Then he answered them, “Do you want me to release for you the King of the Jews?” 10 For he realized that it was out of jealousy that the chief priests had handed him over. 11 But the chief priests stirred up the crowd to have him release Barabbas for them instead. 12 Pilate spoke to them again, “Then what do you wish me to do[a] with the man you call[b] the King of the Jews?” 13 They shouted back, “Crucify him!” 14 Pilate asked them, “Why, what evil has he done?” But they shouted all the more, “Crucify him!” 15 So Pilate, wishing to satisfy the crowd, released Barabbas for them; and after flogging Jesus, he handed him over to be crucified.


20 After mocking him, they stripped him of the purple cloak and put his own clothes on him. Then they led him out to crucify him.”
 
Torah:

The Destruction of Israel

I saw the Lord standing beside[a] the altar, and he said:
Strike the capitals until the thresholds shake,
    and shatter them on the heads of all the people;[b]
and those who are left I will kill with the sword;
    not one of them shall flee away,
    not one of them shall escape.

Though they dig into Sheol,
    from there shall my hand take them;
though they climb up to heaven,
    from there I will bring them down.
Though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel,
    from there I will search out and take them;
and though they hide from my sight at the bottom of the sea,
    there I will command the sea-serpent, and it shall bite them.
And though they go into captivity in front of their enemies,
    there I will command the sword, and it shall kill them;
and I will fix my eyes on them
    for harm and not for good.

The Lord, God of hosts,
he who touches the earth and it melts,
    and all who live in it mourn,
and all of it rises like the Nile,
    and sinks again, like the Nile of Egypt;
who builds his upper chambers in the heavens,
    and founds his vault upon the earth;
who calls for the waters of the sea,
    and pours them out upon the surface of the earth—
the Lord is his name.

Are you not like the Ethiopians[c] to me,
    O people of Israel? says the Lord.
Did I not bring Israel up from the land of Egypt,
    and the Philistines from Caphtor and the Arameans from Kir?
The eyes of the Lord God are upon the sinful kingdom,
    and I will destroy it from the face of the earth
    —except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,
says the Lord.

For lo, I will command,
    and shake the house of Israel among all the nations
as one shakes with a sieve,
    but no pebble shall fall to the ground.
10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword,
    who say, “Evil shall not overtake or meet us.”

The Restoration of David’s Kingdom”


 
Will you judge them, mortal, will you judge them? Then let them know the abominations of their ancestors, and say to them: Thus says the Lord God: On the day when I chose Israel, I swore to the offspring of the house of Jacob—making myself known to them in the land of Egypt—I swore to them, saying, I am the Lord your God. …”

773. The Tower of Babel will, once again, be erected and presented as a temple of God

The Book of Truth:
My dearly beloved daughter, who can deny My death on the Cross? Who can deny that I gave up My Life so that the Truth would save sinners everywhere? Then who amongst you will, when the time comes, deny the Truth of My Church on earth when it is taken apart stone by stone?You have been given the Truth. You know My Teachings. So then, you will know My Church by My Teachings. My Church on Earth is the Truth. My Church on Earth is My Body. So if a man amongst you scourges My Body, then re-invents My Teachings and then presents to you lies, will you deny Me then?

I, Jesus Christ, do not tell you this to divide you. I tell you these things so that you will honour My Teachings, uphold the Holy Sacraments and remain firm to the Truth. No man on earth can change the Teachings of My Church. No man. Not one amongst you has been given this authority to declare new doctrines and present them as Mine. Yet, many amongst you will deny Me by denying the Truth, given to you 2,000 years ago. So lacking are you, in the knowledge of sacred things, that you will be ignorant of the new laws, which will blaspheme against Me, when they are introduced into My Church on Earth.

Just as it was before, the Tower of Babel will, once again, be erected and presented as a temple of God. It will be located in Rome and will feature the new symbol of the new one world religion. This symbol will be seen on the roof, at the entrance, and will take precedence on the high altar within. My precious Tabernacle in gold, defiled in all its Glory, will sit in the centre of the altar for all to see. This insult will mean that the beast will be given the open door to invade My Tabernacle. My Presence will, at this time, disappear.

Millions of people – many of whom will not know the significance of this abomination – will do everything asked of them and they will pray before the beast. New garments, produced with gold emblems, which will have the appearance of humble cassocks, will be worn by those who serve in this so-called temple. The gold emblem, which will be displayed in a  brazen manner, will be the symbol of the new world religion.

Crosses will disappear. My Crucifix will be nowhere to be seen. Then, where they are seen, in some public places, people will be forced, by law, to take them down.

The new tower, which will honour Satan, will be replicated in many countries and then the second part of the deceit will be made known. The existence of Hell will be publicly declared, by the church, to be nonsense. People will be lulled into a false sense of security when this blatant lie is accepted by all churches. It will be argued that God would never allow for such a place to exist. That He loves all and that the existence of Hell was spread by religious fanatics down through the centuries. And so, people will condone even the existence of mortal sin. Sin will be so widely accepted that people will no longer pray or ask for Mercy, for it will not be God they will acknowledge. It will be to the beast they will surrender their souls and every step of their journey will be carefully orchestrated by the enemies of God.

Gospel Jn 6:60-69

Many of the disciples of Jesus who were listening said,
“This saying is hard; who can accept it?”
Since Jesus knew that his disciples were murmuring about this,
he said to them, “Does this shock you?
What if you were to see the Son of Man ascending to where he was before?
It is the Spirit that gives life, while the flesh is of no avail.
The words I have spoken to you are Spirit and life.
But there are some of you who do not believe.”
Jesus knew from the beginning the ones who would not believe
and the one who would betray him.
And he said, “For this reason I have told you that no one can come to me
unless it is granted him by my Father.
As a result of this,
many of his disciples returned to their former way of life
and no longer walked with him.

Jesus then said to the Twelve, “Do you also want to leave?
Simon Peter answered him, “Master, to whom shall we go?
You have the words of eternal life.
We have come to believe
and are convinced that you are the Holy One of God.” ”

24 So when the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they themselves got into the boats and went to Capernaum looking for Jesus.

25 When they found him on the other side of the sea, they said to him, “Rabbi, when did you come here?” 26 Jesus answered them, “Very truly, I tell you, you are looking for me, not because you saw signs, but because you ate your fill of the loaves. 27 Do not work for the food that perishes, but for the food that endures for eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For it is on him that God the Father has set his seal.” ”

The Day of Atonement

16 The Lord spoke to Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they drew near before the Lord and died. The Lord said to Moses:

772. When man does not believe in God, he does not accept the difference between right and wrong

The Book of Truth:
My dearly beloved daughter, the Heavens are full of sorrow because of the pain which My beloved followers have to endure on Earth. All the angels and the saints unite as one to pray for humanity, as it endures such a wicked assault by Satan and all his evil spirits. As their prayers are accepted by Me and acted upon, I ask all those who declare themselves to be Christians to pray as never before.Prayers offered daily for protection against demonic forces, which infiltrate the Earth, will help cleanse it of evil spirits. You must remain hopeful, and when you remain loyal to Me, you will become even stronger.The strength of Christians, united in the Truth of God, will present a powerful defensive wall against the beast whose plans to hurt God’s children are coming into being at this time. You must stand before Me, declare your undying love for Me and I will lead you in My army, which will never be defeated. As My army increases in size and as billions more convert and accept Me, it will help to slay the beast.

Your duty, My beloved followers, is to focus on those who will reject My Hand of Mercy. No matter that you are ridiculed in My Name, all you must do is to plead for the salvation of souls. Know that God’s army on Earth will be granted special graces to enable it to bring with it the souls of those who doubt My Holy Word.

Doubts, when allowed to fester, separate man from God. Doubts are placed in the hearts of man, by Satan in order to deceive God’s children into believing that He, God, does not Exist.

When man does not believe in God, he does not accept the difference between right and wrong. Without guidance from God, he will walk into every trap laid down before him by Satan. So much hatred is then manifested in the hearts of man, because once they leave themselves open to the evil one, their hearts fill with anger. The worst anger will be directed at Christians, and yet these people will not know why they feel this way. This is why those who claim not to believe in God spend more time condemning those who do.

Pray, pray, pray for their souls.

Your Jesus”

Friday of the Third Week of Easter
Lectionary: 277

Reading 1 Acts 9:1-20

Saul, still breathing murderous threats against the disciples of the Lord,
went to the high priest and asked him
for letters to the synagogues in Damascus, that,
if he should find any men or women who belonged to the Way,
he might bring them back to Jerusalem in chains.
On his journey, as he was nearing Damascus,
a light from the sky suddenly flashed around him.
He fell to the ground and heard a voice saying to him,
Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?
He said, “Who are you, sir?”
The reply came, “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting.
Now get up and go into the city and you will be told what you must do.”
The men who were traveling with him stood speechless,
for they heard the voice but could see no one.
Saul got up from the ground,
but when he opened his eyes he could see nothing;
so they led him by the hand and brought him to Damascus.
For three days he was unable to see, and he neither ate nor drank.There was a disciple in Damascus named Ananias,
and the Lord said to him in a vision, “Ananias.”
He answered, “Here I am, Lord.”
The Lord said to him, “Get up and go to the street called Straight
and ask at the house of Judas for a man from Tarsus named Saul.
He is there praying,
and in a vision he has seen a man named Ananias
come in and lay his hands on him,
that he may regain his sight.”
But Ananias replied,
“Lord, I have heard from many sources about this man,
what evil things he has done to your holy ones in Jerusalem.
And here he has authority from the chief priests
to imprison all who call upon your name
.”
But the Lord said to him,
“Go, for this man is a chosen instrument of mine
to carry my name before Gentiles, kings, and children of Israel,
and I will show him what he will have to suffer for my name.”
So Ananias went and entered the house;
laying his hands on him, he said,

Saul, my brother, the Lord has sent me,
Jesus who appeared to you on the way by which you came,
that you may regain your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit.

Immediately things like scales fell from his eyes
and he regained his sight.
He got up and was baptized,
and when he had eaten, he recovered his strength.He stayed some days with the disciples in Damascus,
and he began at once to proclaim Jesus in the synagogues,
that he is the Son of God.

Gospel Jn 6:52-59

The Jews quarreled among themselves, saying,
“How can this man give us his Flesh to eat?”
Jesus said to them,
“Amen, amen, I say to you,
unless you eat the Flesh of the Son of Man and drink his Blood,
you do not have life within you.
Whoever eats my Flesh and drinks my Blood
has eternal life,
and I will raise him on the last day.
For my Flesh is true food,
and my Blood is true drink.
Whoever eats my Flesh and drinks my Blood
remains in me and I in him.
Just as the living Father sent me
and I have life because of the Father,
so also the one who feeds on me will have life because of me.
This is the bread that came down from heaven.
Unlike your ancestors who ate and still died,
whoever eats this bread will live forever.”
These things he said while teaching in the synagogue in Capernaum.”

Ananias and Sapphira

But a man named Ananias, with the consent of his wife Sapphira, sold a piece of property; with his wife’s knowledge, he kept back some of the proceeds, and brought only a part and laid it at the apostles’ feet. “Ananias,” Peter asked, “why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit and to keep back part of the proceeds of the land? While it remained unsold, did it not remain your own? And after it was sold, were not the proceeds at your disposal? How is it that you have contrived this deed in your heart? You did not lie to us[a] but to God!” Now when Ananias heard these words, he fell down and died. And great fear seized all who heard of it. …”

 
“… 33 You sent messengers to John, and he testified to the truth. 34 Not that I accept such human testimony, but I say these things so that you may be saved. 35 He was a burning and shining lamp, and you were willing to rejoice for a while in his light. 36 But I have a testimony greater than John’s. The works that the Father has given me to complete, the very works that I am doing, testify on my behalf that the Father has sent me. 37 And the Father who sent me has himself testified on my behalf. You have never heard his voice or seen his form, 38 and you do not have his word abiding in you, because you do not believe him whom he has sent.  …”https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=John+5%3A30-55&version=NRSVCE;NR2006;SCH2000;ERV-HU;BDS

771. I ask that those of you who are frightened and confused by these Messages to hear Me now

The Book of Truth:
My dearly beloved daughter, how lonely this Mission is, despite the hundreds of thousands who surround you with their love and prayers.

When you work for Me and abandon yourself, in complete surrender at My Feet, you will feel very alone. You will face the wrath of My enemies, who will not give you a moment’s peace. You, My daughter, must listen now as I offer all of those who reject Me, in these Words I present to God’s children, a special Gift.

I ask that those of you who are frightened and confused by these Messages to hear Me now. Don’t you know how I love you even when you resent Me? Don’t you know that I would never punish you for not accepting these Messages, given to you only so that I can prepare you and strengthen you for the trials which lie ahead? Don’t you know Me, your beloved Jesus, when I call out to you now?

I Am your Saviour and I would never cast you aside when there are doubts in your mind. How could I be Angry with you when you love Me and only care about the Truth? I now prepare you for the challenges that you will now have to face, as the prophecies foretold, of the persecution of My Church on Earth, unfold.

So that I can draw you into the Mercy of My Love and enlighten your hearts, I give you this Gift. I Promise that when you call on Me in this way, through this Prayer, that  your doubts as to Who I Am, speaking with you now, will vanish.  I offer you this Gift so that you, through the Prayers I give to the world at this time, can save the whole of humanity.

If you come to Me, free of pride and with an open and clear conscience, you will know instantly that you have been given this Gift. It is the Gift of Conversion for others.

Crusade Prayer (105): Gift of Conversion for Others

O my dearest Jesus, with my love for You
please accept my soul in unison with You.
Take my soul, cover it with Your Holy Spirit and  help me,
through this Prayer, save all those I come into contact with.
Engulf every soul I meet with Your Holy Mercy
and offer them the salvation needed to enter Your Kingdom.

Hear my prayers.
Listen to my pleas and through Your Mercy
salvage the souls of the whole of humanity. Amen.

Those of you who cast aspersion on these Messages and who reject them, I ask that you come to Me. I will show you the Truth. I will take you and bring you comfort. I will always love you no matter how you offend Me.

Your Jesus ”

Thursday of the Third Week of Easter
Lectionary: 276

Reading 1 Acts 8:26-40

The angel of the Lord spoke to Philip,
“Get up and head south on the road
that goes down from Jerusalem to Gaza, the desert route.”
So he got up and set out.
Now there was an Ethiopian eunuch,
a court official of the Candace,
that is, the queen of the Ethiopians,
in charge of her entire treasury,
who had come to Jerusalem to worship, and was returning home.
Seated in his chariot, he was reading the prophet Isaiah.
The Spirit said to Philip,
“Go and join up with that chariot.”
Philip ran up and heard him reading Isaiah the prophet and said,
“Do you understand what you are reading?”
He replied,
How can I, unless someone instructs me?”
So he invited Philip to get in and sit with him.
This was the Scripture passage he was reading:

Like a sheep he was led to the slaughter,
and as a lamb before its shearer is silent,
so he opened not his mouth.
In his humiliation justice was denied him.
Who will tell of his posterity?
For his life is taken from the earth.

Then the eunuch said to Philip in reply,
I beg you, about whom is the prophet saying this?
About himself, or about someone else?”
Then Philip opened his mouth and, beginning with this Scripture passage,
he proclaimed Jesus to him.

As they traveled along the road
they came to some water,
and the eunuch said, “Look, there is water.
What is to prevent my being baptized?”
Then he ordered the chariot to stop,
and Philip and the eunuch both went down into the water,
and he baptized him.
When they came out of the water,
the Spirit of the Lord snatched Philip away,
and the eunuch saw him no more,
but continued on his way rejoicing.
Philip came to Azotus, and went about proclaiming the good news
to all the towns until he reached Caesarea.

It is written in the prophets:

Everyone who listens to my Father and learns from him comes to me.
Not that anyone has seen the Father
except the one who is from God;
he has seen the Father.
Amen, amen, I say to you,
whoever believes has eternal life.

I am the bread of life.
Your ancestors ate the manna in the desert, but they died;
this is the bread that comes down from heaven
so that one may eat it and not die.
I am the living bread that came down from heaven;
whoever eats this bread will live forever;
and the bread that I will give
is my Flesh for the life of the world.” “

The Believers Pray for Boldness

23 After they were released, they went to their friends[a] and reported what the chief priests and the elders had said to them. 24 When they heard it, they raised their voices together to God and said, “Sovereign Lord, who made the heaven and the earth, the sea, and everything in them, 25 it is you who said by the Holy Spirit through our ancestor David, your servant:[b]

‘Why did the Gentiles rage,
    and the peoples imagine vain things?
26 The kings of the earth took their stand,
    and the rulers have gathered together
        against the Lord and against his Messiah.’[c]

27 For in this city, in fact, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the peoples of Israel, gathered together against your holy servant[d] Jesus, whom you anointed, 28 to do whatever your hand and your plan had predestined to take place. 29 And now, Lord, look at their threats, and grant to your servants[e] to speak your word with all boldness, 30 while you stretch out your hand to heal, and signs and wonders are performed through the name of your holy servant[f] Jesus.” 31 When they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God with boldness. …”

Wednesday of the Third Week of Easter
Lectionary: 275

Reading 1 Acts 8:1b-8

There broke out a severe persecution of the Church in Jerusalem,
and all were scattered
throughout the countryside of Judea and Samaria,
except the Apostles.
Devout men buried Stephen and made a loud lament over him.
Saul, meanwhile, was trying to destroy the Church;
entering house after house and dragging out men and women,
he handed them over for imprisonment.Now those who had been scattered went about preaching the word.
Thus Philip went down to the city of Samaria
and proclaimed the Christ to them.
With one accord, the crowds paid attention to what was said by Philip
when they heard it and saw the signs he was doing.
For unclean spirits, crying out in a loud voice,
came out of many possessed people,
and many paralyzed and crippled people were cured.
There was great joy in that city.

Responsorial Psalm Ps 66:1-3a, 4-5, 6-7a

“Let all on earth worship and sing praise to you,
sing praise to your name!”
Come and see the works of God,
his tremendous deeds among the children of Adam.
R. Let all the earth cry out to God with joy.
or:

He has changed the sea into dry land;
through the river they passed on foot;
therefore let us rejoice in him.
He rules by his might forever.

Jesus said to the crowds,

whoever comes to me will never hunger,
and whoever believes in me will never thirst.
But I told you that although you have seen me,
you do not believe
.
Everything that the Father gives me will come to me,
and I will not reject anyone who comes to me,
because I came down from heaven not to do my own will
but the will of the one who sent me.
And this is the will of the one who sent me,
that I should not lose anything of what he gave me,
but that I should raise it on the last day.
For this is the will of my Father,
that everyone who sees the Son and believes in him
may have eternal life,
and I shall raise him on the last day

17 But to keep it from spreading further among the people, let us warn them to speak no more to anyone in this name.” 18 So they called them and ordered them not to speak or teach at all in the name of Jesus. 19 But Peter and John answered them, “Whether it is right in God’s sight to listen to you rather than to God, you must judge; 20 for we cannot keep from speaking about what we have seen and heard.” 21 After threatening them again, they let them go, finding no way to punish them because of the people, for all of them praised God for what had happened. 22 For the man on whom this sign of healing had been performed was more than forty years old. …”https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+4%3A13-22&version=NRSVCE;NR2006;SCH2000;ERV-HU;BDS

The Authority of the Son19 Jesus said to them, “Very truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing on his own, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father[a] does, the Son does likewise. 20 The Father loves the Son and shows him all that he himself is doing; and he will show him greater works than these, so that you will be astonished. 21 Indeed, just as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whomever he wishes. 22 The Father judges no one but has given all judgment to the Son, 23 so that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Anyone who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent him. 24 Very truly, I tell you, anyone who hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life, and does not come under judgment, but has passed from death to life. …”
