The Book of Truth:
Sunday, August 18th, 2013, 17:45
My dearly beloved daughter, the plan by the false prophet to deceive the world’s clergy has begun.Under the guise of a renewal and regeneration of the Catholic Church, all the clergy, within this Church, will be sent on retreats to encourage them to accept the new apostolate. These will become widespread and many will be told that the objective is to unite everyone in the world, in the name of justice. This new mission will, they will be told, embrace the world’s poor and strive to bring about unity. They will be asked to pledge their allegiance, through a new oath, to remain faithful to the Church. They will not be asked to place their faith in Me or My Holy Word. Instead, they will swear allegiance to the new self-proclaimed leaders who have taken over the Chair of Peter.Make no mistake that those who have been bestowed with the Gift of Holy Orders will be asked to participate in a falsity, where I, Jesus Christ, will not be at the forefront, though it will appear to be the case. Money will be a driving force and a new financial organization will be set up to control the seeking of funds to ensure that the world’s poor will benefit.When you amend your Holy Orders, in any way, and then pledge your life to someone who breaks all ties with Me, you will no longer be fit to serve Me. Everything will be seen to be made simple in the Eyes of God. The plan will be to convince those sacred servants of Mine to take part, willingly, in the abomination, which will link society and a secular world with the Church, which was set up by Me, Jesus Christ.

This is how I will be insulted. Every effort to embrace secularism will be applauded by non-believers and this will be seen to be a good thing, for the new, so-called modern society of today.

It will soon seem strange to Christians when they see members of the secular world embrace the Catholic Church, so enthusiastically. But many will brush off their doubts and dismiss their concerns, as they will fall for the great deceit. At the kernel of this plan to revolutionize the Church lies a hatred for Me and everything that I gave My Church. You must question everything in the days ahead. Demand answers when they change My Teachings and twist them to suit pagans. No disciple, appointed by Me, would ever be given the authority to do this, for it amounts to blasphemy.

Woe to those who allow My Holy Word to be tampered with and allow room to be set aside to show respect for those who deny Me.

Your Jesus”

Reading 1 Ez 18:1-10, 13b, 30-32

The word of the LORD came to me:
Son of man, what is the meaning of this proverb
that you recite in the land of Israel:”Fathers have eaten green grapes,
thus their children’s teeth are on edge”?As I live, says the Lord GOD:
I swear that there shall no longer be anyone among you
who will repeat this proverb in Israel.
For all lives are mine;
the life of the father is like the life of the son, both are mine;
only the one who sins shall die.If a man is virtuous—if he does what is right and just,
if he does not eat on the mountains,
nor raise his eyes to the idols of the house of Israel;
if he does not defile his neighbor’s wife,
nor have relations with a woman in her menstrual period;
if he oppresses no one,
gives back the pledge received for a debt,
commits no robbery;
if he gives food to the hungry and clothes the naked;
if he does not lend at interest nor exact usury;
if he holds off from evildoing,
judges fairly between a man and his opponent;
if he lives by my statutes and is careful to observe my ordinances,
that man is virtuous—he shall surely live, says the Lord GOD.
But if he begets a son who is a thief, a murderer,
or lends at interest and exacts usury–
this son certainly shall not live.
Because he practiced all these abominations,
he shall surely die;
his death shall be his own fault.

Therefore I will judge you, house of Israel,
each one according to his ways, says the Lord GOD.
Turn and be converted from all your crimes,
that they may be no cause of guilt for you.
Cast away from you all the crimes you have committed,
and make for yourselves a new heart and a new spirit.
Why should you die, O house of Israel?
For I have no pleasure in the death of anyone who dies,
says the Lord GOD. Return and live!

Responsorial Psalm Ps 51:12-13, 14-15, 18-19

R. (12a) Create a clean heart in me, O God.
A clean heart create for me, O God;
and a steadfast spirit renew within me.
Cast me not out from your presence,
and your Holy Spirit take not from me.
R. Create a clean heart in me, O God.
Give me back the joy of your salvation,
and a willing spirit sustain in me.
I will teach transgressors your ways,
and sinners shall return to you.
R. Create a clean heart in me, O God.
For you are not pleased with sacrifices;
should I offer a burnt offering, you would not accept it.
My sacrifice, O God, is a contrite spirit;
a heart contrite and humbled, O God, you will not spurn.
R. Create a clean heart in me, O God.

Alleluia See Mt 11:25

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
Blessed are you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth;
you have revealed to little ones the mysteries of the Kingdom.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Gospel Mt 19:13-15

Children were brought to Jesus
that he might lay his hands on them and pray.
The disciples rebuked them, but Jesus said,
“Let the children come to me, and do not prevent them;
for the Kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these.”
After he placed his hands on them, he went away.”

Orthodox (Greek Catholic):
26 Consider your own call, brothers and sisters:[a] not many of you were wise by human standards,[b] not many were powerful, not many were of noble birth. 27 But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise; God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong; 28 God chose what is low and despised in the world, things that are not, to reduce to nothing things that are, 29 so that no one[c] might boast in the presence of God.”

Jesus Heals Two Blind Men29 As they were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed him. 30 There were two blind men sitting by the roadside. When they heard that Jesus was passing by, they shouted, “Lord,[a] have mercy on us, Son of David!” 31 The crowd sternly ordered them to be quiet; but they shouted even more loudly, “Have mercy on us, Lord, Son of David!” 32 Jesus stood still and called them, saying, “What do you want me to do for you?” 33 They said to him, “Lord, let our eyes be opened. 34 Moved with compassion, Jesus touched their eyes. Immediately they regained their sight and followed him.”

Many will be blind to the Truth and will accept great changes in the Church and will welcome these, in the mistaken belief that they are for the good of all. Those who will recognise the deceit, which will be presented to Catholics, will run. So fearful of their fate, they will leave the Church, for they will be too weak to stand up against such wickedness.

Those priests who will refuse to accept the false doctrine will be accused of heresy and many will be publicly rebuked, for failing to obey those to whom they answer. Many will be excommunicated. Others will be martyred. Then there will be those who will lead the Church – the Church given to the world by my Son – in secret. They will need to find places of refuge, so that they can provide daily Masses and the Holy Eucharist. They will be guided by the Holy Spirit and they will be followed by my Son’s Remnant Army, who will remain fiercely loyal to His Teachings and Sacraments up to the final day.

You must understand that if you are in any doubt about the validity of this warning, that I, the beloved Mother of Christ, will be used to hide the true intent of those forces, who have entered my Son’s Church on Earth. I will be used as a figurehead of the Church to distract people from the true intentions of this wicked group. In order to convince God’s children that they remain loyal to the true Word of God and the traditions of the Catholic Church, they will create ceremonies, which they will say honour me. They will use the prophecies of Fatima to desecrate my image, by presenting a great deceit to the world. They will use me in order to defile my Son’s Church and everything they will do will be backwards, in accordance with the demands of the evil one.

Torah:

Rebellious Children

18 If someone has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey his father and mother, who does not heed them when they discipline him, 19 then his father and his mother shall take hold of him and bring him out to the elders of his town at the gate of that place. 20 They shall say to the elders of his town, “This son of ours is stubborn and rebellious. He will not obey us. He is a glutton and a drunkard.” 21 Then all the men of the town shall stone him to death. So you shall purge the evil from your midst; and all Israel will hear, and be afraid.

Miscellaneous Laws

22 When someone is convicted of a crime punishable by death and is executed, and you hang him on a tree, 23 his corpse must not remain all night upon the tree; you shall bury him that same day, for anyone hung on a tree is under God’s curse. You must not defile the land that the Lord your God is giving you for possession. …”

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Deuteronomy+21%3A10-22&version=NRSVCE;NR2006;SCH2000;ERV-HU;BDS

The Eternal Covenant of Peace

54 Sing, O barren one who did not bear;
    burst into song and shout,
    you who have not been in labor!
For the children of the desolate woman will be more
    than the children of her that is married, says the Lord.
Enlarge the site of your tent,
    and let the curtains of your habitations be stretched out;
do not hold back; lengthen your cords
    and strengthen your stakes.
For you will spread out to the right and to the left,
    and your descendants will possess the nations
    and will settle the desolate towns.

Do not fear, for you will not be ashamed;
    do not be discouraged, for you will not suffer disgrace;
for you will forget the shame of your youth,
    and the disgrace of your widowhood you will remember no more.
For your Maker is your husband,
    the Lord of hosts is his name;
the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer,
    the God of the whole earth he is called.
For the Lord has called you
    like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit,
like the wife of a man’s youth when she is cast off,
    says your God.
For a brief moment I abandoned you,
    but with great compassion I will gather you.
In overflowing wrath for a moment
    I hid my face from you,
but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,
    says the Lord, your Redeemer.

This is like the days of Noah to me:
    Just as I swore that the waters of Noah
    would never again go over the earth,
so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you
    and will not rebuke you.
10 For the mountains may depart
    and the hills be removed,
but my steadfast love shall not depart from you,
    and my
covenant of peace shall not be removed,
    says the Lord, who has compassion on you.

 

Again I passed by you and saw that you were now old enough for love.
So I spread the corner of my cloak over you to cover your nakedness;
I swore an oath to you and entered into a covenant with you;
you became mine, says the Lord GOD.
Then I bathed you with water, washed away your blood,
and anointed you with oil.
I clothed you with an embroidered gown,
put sandals of fine leather on your feet;
I gave you a fine linen sash and silk robes to wear.
I adorned you with jewelry: I put bracelets on your arms,
a necklace about your neck, a ring in your nose,
pendants in your ears, and a glorious diadem upon your head.
Thus you were adorned with gold and silver;
your garments were of fine linen, silk, and embroidered cloth.
Fine flour, honey, and oil were your food.
You were exceedingly beautiful, with the dignity of a queen.
You were renowned among the nations for your beauty, perfect as it was,
because of my splendor which I had bestowed on you,
says the Lord GOD.

But you were captivated by your own beauty,
you used your renown to make yourself a harlot,
and you lavished your harlotry on every passer-by,
whose own you became.

Yet I will remember the covenant I made with you when you were a girl,
and I will set up an everlasting covenant with you,
that you may remember and be covered with confusion,
and that you may be utterly silenced for shame
when I pardon you for all you have done, says the Lord GOD.

Or:Ez 16:59-63

Thus says the LORD:
I will deal with you according to what you have done,
you who despised your oath, breaking a covenant.
Yet I will remember the covenant I made with you when you were a girl,
and I will set up an everlasting covenant with you.
Then you shall remember your conduct and be ashamed
when I take your sisters, those older and younger than you,
and give them to you as daughters,
even though I am not bound by my covenant with you.
For I will re-establish my covenant with you,
that you may know that I am the LORD,
that you may remember and be covered with confusion,
and that you may be utterly silenced for shame
when I pardon you for all you have done, says the Lord GOD.”http://usccb.org/bible/readings/081718.cfm

880. When you honour My Mother, you must visit her Shrines and pay homage to her there

The Book of Truth:
Wednesday, August 14th, 2013, 15:15

 

My dearly beloved daughter, no living man can ever fully understand how cunning Satan is. In those he infests, know that they will never give you the impression of evil. On the contrary, they will be very appealing, humourous, authoritative and convincing when they reveal their sinful ways to you, so that you will be accepting of their deceit.

Those, within My Church, who pay homage to the evil one and who slavishly follow his instructions, will greatly confuse you by their holy demeanor. They will win many of you over to their ways, as it will seem to you that they truly honour Me and My beloved Mother. But know that every gesture and seemingly holy act will camouflage an insult before the altars, which are designated to honour My Name. You must know that when they honour the beast, they will present what will seem like holy acts before you, but they will be back to front. Their intentions will seem to be most holy and respectful, but do not be deceived.

When you honour My Mother, you must visit her Shrines and pay homage to her there. Those who love Me will go to her. They must never accept that My Mother can be commanded to the court of the enemies of My Church.

The other signs which the world will be asked to accept, which will seem to honour the Triune God, My Mother and all the saints, will seem to be good. But they will always be shown to you in a different way by the enemies of God. When the unexpected is presented, know that this is a great sign of the beast, who will fool the world into believing that he and his cohorts are saints.

Your Jesus”

Reading 1 Ez 2:8—3:4

The Lord GOD said to me:
As for you, son of man, obey me when I speak to you:
be not rebellious like this house of rebellion,
but open your mouth and eat what I shall give you.
It was then I saw a hand stretched out to me,
in which was a written scroll which he unrolled before me.
It was covered with writing front and back,
and written on it was:
Lamentation and wailing and woe!
He said to me: Son of man, eat what is before you;
eat this scroll, then go, speak to the house of Israel.
So I opened my mouth and he gave me the scroll to eat.
Son of man, he then said to me,
feed your belly and fill your stomach
with this scroll I am giving you.
I ate it, and it was as sweet as honey in my mouth.
He said: Son of man, go now to the house of Israel,
and speak my words to them.

Responsorial Psalm PS 119:14, 24, 72, 103, 111, 131

R. (103a) How sweet to my taste is your promise!
In the way of your decrees I rejoice,
as much as in all riches.
R. How sweet to my taste is your promise!
Yes, your decrees are my delight;
they are my counselors.
R. How sweet to my taste is your promise!
The law of your mouth is to me more precious
than thousands of gold and silver pieces.
R. How sweet to my taste is your promise!
How sweet to my palate are your promises,
sweeter than honey to my mouth!
R. How sweet to my taste is your promise!
Your decrees are my inheritance forever;
the joy of my heart they are.
R. How sweet to my taste is your promise!
I gasp with open mouth,
in my yearning for your commands.
R. How sweet to my taste is your promise!

Take my yoke upon you and learn from me,

Gospel Mt 18:1-5, 10, 12-14

The disciples approached Jesus and said,
“Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven?”
He called a child over, placed it in their midst, and said,
“Amen, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children,
you will not enter the Kingdom of heaven.
Whoever becomes humble like this child
is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven.
And whoever receives one child such as this in my name receives me.“See that you do not despise one of these little ones,
for I say to you that their angels in heaven
always look upon the face of my heavenly Father.
What is your opinion?
If a man has a hundred sheep and one of them goes astray,
will he not leave the ninety-nine in the hills
and go in search of the stray?

And if he finds it, amen, I say to you, he rejoices more over it
than over the ninety-nine that did not stray.
In just the same way, it is not the will of your heavenly Father
that one of these little ones be lost.” “

Jesus Calls the First Disciples

16 As Jesus passed along the Sea of Galilee, he saw Simon and his brother Andrew casting a net into the sea—for they were fishermen. 17 And Jesus said to them, “Follow me and I will make you fish for people.” 18 And immediately they left their nets and followed him. 19 As he went a little farther, he saw James son of Zebedee and his brother John, who were in their boat mending the nets. 20 Immediately he called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men, and followed him.

The Man with an Unclean Spirit

21 They went to Capernaum; and when the sabbath came, he entered the synagogue and taught. 22 They were astounded at his teaching, for he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.”

845. It will be through your recital of My Crusade Prayers that I can save them

The Book of Truth:
My dearly beloved daughter, let Me draw you close to My Sacred Heart, because when you allow Me to do this, I will instill within your soul special Graces. Then, My Work will yield more fruit, which will ripen and burst forth in abundance across the Earth.

The fruit, which comes from Me, creates conversion and softens the hearts of the most hardened, when they taste it. When they eat it, it will unite them to Me, in a way which will bring them great peace. The peace I promise all of you who listen to Me now, as I speak with you, will be your armour against hatred.

Those of you, including those souls who have never heard of these Messages and who truly love Me, will be filled with this peace and you will, as a result, become immune to the voices of those who scream at you because you are of Me.

When you are one with Me, I promise that, for every insult and hurt you have to endure because you proclaim My Holy Word, I will lift you, guard you and protect you. You will enjoy a glorious life in My New Paradise, where all will sing in union, for the love and the glory of God.
You have nothing to fear from Me, but I ask that you spend time in prayer for the souls of those who are confused and in some cases, lost. Those who are separated from Me must come back to Me and it will be through your recital of My Crusade Prayers that I can save them.

Go, My beloved followers, and know that you are in My Heart and I Am in yours.

Your Jesus”

Reading 1 Hos 10:1-3, 7-8, 12

Israel is a luxuriant vine
whose fruit matches its growth.
The more abundant his fruit,
the more altars he built;
The more productive his land,
the more sacred pillars he set up.
Their heart is false,
now they pay for their guilt;
God shall break down their altars
and destroy their sacred pillars.
If they would say,
“We have no king”—
Since they do not fear the LORD,
what can the king do for them?

The king of Samaria shall disappear,
like foam upon the waters.
The high places of Aven shall be destroyed,
the sin of Israel;
thorns and thistles shall overgrow their altars.
Then they shall cry out to the mountains, “Cover us!”
and to the hills, “Fall upon us!”

“Sow for yourselves justice,
reap the fruit of piety;
break up for yourselves a new field,
for it is time to seek the LORD,
till he come and rain down justice upon you.”

Jesus summoned his Twelve disciples
and gave them authority over unclean spirits to drive them out
and to cure every disease and every illness.
The names of the Twelve Apostles are these:
first, Simon called Peter, and his brother Andrew;
James, the son of Zebedee, and his brother John;
Philip and Bartholomew,
Thomas and Matthew the tax collector;
James, the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddeus;
Simon the Cananean, and Judas Iscariot
who betrayed Jesus.

Jesus sent out these Twelve after instructing them thus,
“Do not go into pagan territory or enter a Samaritan town.
Go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.
As you go, make this proclamation: ‘The Kingdom of heaven is at hand.’” “

“… 12 To the rest I say—I and not the Lord—that if any believer[a] has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he should not divorce her. 13 And if any woman has a husband who is an unbeliever, and he consents to live with her, she should not divorce him. 14 For the unbelieving husband is made holy through his wife, and the unbelieving wife is made holy through her husband. Otherwise, your children would be unclean, but as it is, they are holy. 15 But if the unbelieving partner separates, let it be so; in such a case the brother or sister is not bound. It is to peace that God has called you.[b] 16 Wife, for all you know, you might save your husband. Husband, for all you know, you might save your wife.

The Life that the Lord Has Assigned

17 However that may be, let each of you lead the life that the Lord has assigned, to which God called you. This is my rule in all the churches. 18 Was anyone at the time of his call already circumcised? Let him not seek to remove the marks of circumcision. Was anyone at the time of his call uncircumcised? Let him not seek circumcision. 19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing; but obeying the commandments of God is everything. 20 Let each of you remain in the condition in which you were called.

21 Were you a slave when called? Do not be concerned about it. Even if you can gain your freedom, make use of your present condition now more than ever.[c] 22 For whoever was called in the Lord as a slave is a freed person belonging to the Lord, just as whoever was free when called is a slave of Christ. 23 You were bought with a price; do not become slaves of human masters. 24 In whatever condition you were called, brothers and sisters,[d] there remain with God.”

The Tradition of the Elders

15 Then Pharisees and scribes came to Jesus from Jerusalem and said, “Why do your disciples break the tradition of the elders? For they do not wash their hands before they eat.” He answered them, “And why do you break the commandment of God for the sake of your tradition? For God said,[a] ‘Honor your father and your mother,’ and, ‘Whoever speaks evil of father or mother must surely die.’ But you say that whoever tells father or mother, ‘Whatever support you might have had from me is given to God,’[b] then that person need not honor the father.[c] So, for the sake of your tradition, you make void the word[d] of God. You hypocrites! Isaiah prophesied rightly about you when he said:

‘This people honors me with their lips,
    but their hearts are far from me;
in vain do they worship me,
    teaching human precepts as doctrines.’”

Things That Defile

10 Then he called the crowd to him and said to them, “Listen and understand: 11 it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but it is what comes out of the mouth that defiles.””

842. The Ten Commandments, given to the world by My Father through the prophet Moses, are being re-written by man

The Book of Truth:
My dearly beloved daughter, whenever you feel that there is little hope for sinners, please remember that My Great Mercy is ceaseless. There is not one soul in the world I do not wish to embrace and bring them the Gift of Salvation. I love all of you. I forgive all who beseech Me, for the Gift of Redemption, but this does not mean I will not punish those who commit grievous sin.The Ten Commandments, given to the world by My Father through the prophet Moses, are being re-written by man. They have been taken apart, twisted and given new meaning, so that man can condone sin.You idolise false gods and justify this. You are living a terrible lie when you insult My Father in this way and yet when the Truth is shown to pagans, they will repent and I will be waiting to embrace them.

You kill one another and say that you are simply showing mercy when you do this. You legalise murder, execution, euthanasia and abortion and say that these are good things. This is evil at its worst, when you challenge the Author of all life – the Creator of Heaven and Earth – by tampering with the Divine Laws of God. Yet, when you show true remorse, I will also be waiting to embrace you in My Arms.

You plunder what does not belong to you and you steal from paupers, in order to satisfy your lust for more. You commit terrible sins of the flesh, which are beneath the dignity of man and you behave as wild animals let loose in a pit. Your wretchedness is abhorrent in the Eyes of God, but yet if you call on Me and beg Me for Mercy, I will be there waiting patiently. When you defile God by refusing to accept that He Exists and then try to take His children with you into abyss with the beast, I will still be waiting when you turn and ask Me to make Myself known to you.

Those of you, who do accept the Truth, no longer take the time to honour Me on the Sabbath Day, because you place your own needs before Me. You hurt Me so, because you already know you are children of God. You have left your Father’s House and you will only come back when you don’t have a roof over your head. And I will be waiting to welcome you back.


Your love for God has diminished, as has your love and respect for your parents. Your hearts have hardened so much that you do not show them love or care for them in the way you are supposed to.You curse God and swear, using My Name in the most disrespectful way, daily, but you won’t speak with Me in the way I desire. When you slander others, you slander Me. When you damage another person’s reputation, you destroy My Love. And, yet, I will forgive you, when you show remorse.

You show disrespect for the institution of marriage and think little of abusing this Most Holy Sacrament. You insult God further when you continue to seek His blessings on marriages, when He does not, nor can, recognise them. Yet, you continue to insult Him.So obsessed you are you with the seeking out of worldly goods and so infested are you with unhealthy ambitions, that you destroy those people who get in your way. Despite this, I will show you Mercy, if you come back to Me.No sin, with the exception of blasphemy against the Holy Spirit, is so bad that it cannot be forgiven. I plead with all of you to examine your conscience and become reconciled with Me, once more.

I Am Patient. I Am Love. I Am your Salvation. I Am waiting. Please come to Me soon, for I love you with an unfathomable passion. I will not rest until I have saved all of you.

Your Jesus”

Friday of the Thirteenth Week in Ordinary Time
Lectionary: 381

Reading 1 Am 8:4-6, 9-12

Hear this, you who trample upon the needy
and destroy the poor of the land!

“When will the new moon be over,” you ask,
“that we may sell our grain,
and the sabbath, that we may display the wheat?”
We will diminish the containers for measuring,
add to the weights,
and fix our scales for cheating!
We will buy the lowly man for silver,
and the poor man for a pair of sandals;
even the refuse of the wheat we will sell!”
On that day, says the Lord GOD,
I will make the sun set at midday
and cover the earth with darkness in broad daylight.
I will turn your feasts into mourning
and all your songs into lamentations.
I will cover the loins of all with sackcloth
and make every head bald.
I will make them mourn as for an only son,
and bring their day to a bitter end.Yes, days are coming, says the Lord GOD,
when I will send famine upon the land:
Not a famine of bread, or thirst for water,
but for hearing the word of the LORD.
Then shall they wander from sea to sea
and rove from the north to the east
In search of the word of the LORD,
but they shall not find it.

“Fourteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Lectionary: 101

Reading 1 Ez 2:2-5

As the LORD spoke to me, the spirit entered into me
and set me on my feet,
and I heard the one who was speaking say to me:
Son of man, I am sending you to the Israelites,
rebels who have rebelled against me;
they and their ancestors have revolted against me to this very day.
Hard of face and obstinate of heart
are they to whom I am sending you.
But you shall say to them: Thus says the LORD GOD!
And whether they heed or resist—for they are a rebellious house—
they shall know that a
prophet has been among them.

Responsorial Psalm Ps 123:1-2, 2, 3-4

R. (2cd) Our eyes are fixed on the Lord, pleading for his mercy.
To you I lift up my eyes
who are enthroned in heaven —
As the eyes of servants
are on the hands of their masters.
R. Our eyes are fixed on the Lord, pleading for his mercy.
As the eyes of a maid
are on the hands of her mistress,
So are our eyes on the LORD, our God,
till he have pity on us.
R. Our eyes are fixed on the Lord, pleading for his mercy.
Have pity on us, O LORD, have pity on us,
for we are more than sated with contempt;
our souls are more than sated
with the mockery of the arrogant,
with the contempt of the proud.
R. Our eyes are fixed on the Lord, pleading for his mercy.

Reading 2 2 Cor 12:7-10

Brothers and sisters:
That I, Paul, might not become too elated,
because of the abundance of the revelations,
a thorn in the flesh was given to me, an angel of Satan,
to beat me, to keep me from being too elated.
Three times I begged the Lord about this, that it might leave me,
but he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you,
for power is made perfect in weakness.”
I will rather boast most gladly of my weaknesses,
in order that the power of Christ may dwell with me.
Therefore, I am content with weaknesses, insults,
hardships, persecutions, and constraints,
for the sake of Christ;
for when I am weak, then I am strong.

Alleluia Cf. Lk 4:18

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
for he sent me to bring glad tidings to the poor.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.

Gospel Mk 6:1-6

Jesus departed from there and came to his native place, accompanied by his disciples.
When the sabbath came he began to teach in the synagogue,
and many who heard him were astonished.
They said, “Where did this man get all this?
What kind of wisdom has been given him?
What mighty deeds are wrought by his hands!
Is he not the carpenter, the son of Mary,
and the brother of James and Joses and Judas and Simon?
And are not his sisters here with us?”
And they took offense at him.
Jesus said to them,
“A
prophet is not without honor except in his native place
and among his own kin and in his own house.”
So he was not able to perform any mighty deed there,
apart from curing a few sick people by laying his hands on them.
He was amazed at their lack of faith.”

Orthodox (Greek Catholic):

Jesus Appears to His Disciples

36 While they were talking about this, Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.”[a] 37 They were startled and terrified, and thought that they were seeing a ghost. 38 He said to them, “Why are you frightened, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39 Look at my hands and my feet; see that it is I myself. Touch me and see; for a ghost does not have flesh and bones as you see that I have.” 40 And when he had said this, he showed them his hands and his feet.[b] 41 While in their joy they were disbelieving and still wondering, he said to them, “Have you anything here to eat?” 42 They gave him a piece of broiled fish, 43 and he took it and ate in their presence.

44 Then he said to them, “These are my words that I spoke to you while I was still with you—that everything written about me in the law of Moses, the prophets, and the psalms must be fulfilled. 45 Then he opened their minds to understand the scriptures, 46 and he said to them, “Thus it is written, that the Messiah[c] is to suffer and to rise from the dead on the third day, 47 and that repentance and forgiveness of sins is to be proclaimed in his name to all nations, beginning from Jerusalem. 48 You are witnesses[d] of these things. 49 And see, I am sending upon you what my Father promised; so stay here in the city until you have been clothed with power from on high.”

The Ascension of Jesus

50 Then he led them out as far as Bethany, and, lifting up his hands, he blessed them. 51 While he was blessing them, he withdrew from them and was carried up into heaven.[e] 52 And they worshiped him, and[f] returned to Jerusalem with great joy; 53 and they were continually in the temple blessing God.[g] …”

“… 6 We have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us: prophecy, in proportion to faith; ministry, in ministering; the teacher, in teaching; the exhorter, in exhortation; the giver, in generosity; the leader, in diligence; the compassionate, in cheerfulness.

Marks of the True Christian

Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good; 10 love one another with mutual affection; outdo one another in showing honor. 11 Do not lag in zeal, be ardent in spirit, serve the Lord.[a] 12 Rejoice in hope, be patient in suffering, persevere in prayer. 13 Contribute to the needs of the saints; extend hospitality to strangers.

14 Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse them.”

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+12%3A6-14&version=NRSVCE;NR2006;SCH2000;ERV-HU;BDS

9 And after getting into a boat he crossed the sea and came to his own town.

Jesus Heals a Paralytic

And just then some people were carrying a paralyzed man lying on a bed. When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, “Take heart, son; your sins are forgiven.” Then some of the scribes said to themselves, “This man is blaspheming. But Jesus, perceiving their thoughts, said, “Why do you think evil in your hearts? For which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’ or to say, ‘Stand up and walk’? But so that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins”—he then said to the paralytic—“Stand up, take your bed and go to your home.” And he stood up and went to his home. When the crowds saw it, they were filled with awe, and they glorified God, who had given such authority to human beings.”

839. God the Father: I know that the plan of abortion around the world is controlled

The Book of Truth:

My dearest daughter, My Time has come to intervene, forcibly, in the world, at a time of great sin against Me.

My Patience is tested and My Anger has been stirred as I witness the greatest insults, which are being perpetrated against Me.

As the Creator of all living things, I Am the Author of life. I Create it as I desire and I end it according to My Holy Will. It is when man tries to interfere with My Will, that I will strike back, for I will not tolerate such wickedness.

To those who kill any of My children, your life will be ended. I will take your life, not only in body, but in spirit. No eternal life will, nor can be grated to you. The life you take away will be your downfall. An eye for an eye will be your punishment.

Heed, those of you who continue to destroy life in every form. I know what you are doing. I know that the plan of abortion around the world is controlled by one group amongst you. I know that those countries, who rush through obscene legislation to justify abortion, are mere puppets. They are held by strings as they dance to the tune of the One World Group, who obey only one master. Their allegiance is to the beast, whose greatest plan, to destroy hundreds of millions of lives, has been succeeding, through the sin of abortion. The unborn are an easy target in their eyes. They use abortion to interfere with My Laws and the great Gift I bequeathed to man – the Gift of life.

The arrogance of man, joined at the hip to the beast and those amongst you he fools, sicken Me. My Love is Powerful, but your wicked intent, to destroy what is Mine, will be brought to such an abrupt halt, that you will scream for your life. Unless you call on Me now through the Gift of Reconciliation, you will be shown little Mercy. For each of you who condones, promotes or takes any part in, the taking of the life of the unborn, you will suffer the same punishment. Destroy those innocent lives and your own lives will be taken. I have watched, in terrible pain, how you have been insulting Me, for so long. Your time is over, for you will be severely punished now, for this grave act against My Divinity.

Remember, there is little time for you to abandon your acceptance of abortion. My Wrath will soon pour over the four corners of the Earth. It is because of the sin of abortion, that man will suffer the worst chastisement. Not one country will be excluded from these punishments. Only those who do not permit abortion will be spared the terrible pain I will inflict upon the world.

As the Author of life, no man has the right to go against Me. No one. He that dares defy Me, by imitating Me in the taking of life, will be deprived of all life.

Your Father, God the Most High”

“My dearly beloved daughter, there is one religion, which causes Me the greatest suffering and that is the false religion, which idolises the beast. The One World Order is the greatest travesty against the True Triune God and those who belong to the house of Satan need so much prayer. They are deceived into believing that there is another God, who loves them. They are told that the Blessed Trinity is a falsity and that My beloved Father is evil. They do not accept that He created them and their heads are filled with so many lies that they will never open their minds to the Truth. Because of their devotion to the occult, they are embroiled in satanic forces, which have devoured their souls, which are filled with hatred, not only for God, but for all of God’s children.

They love only themselves and their lust for pleasure fills them with an insatiable longing for more. No amount of worldly pleasures will satisfy them, which is why they then crave other obscenities. They take pleasure in the taking of life and do not have any remorse in their souls, for the brutal slayings they are guilty of. Their influence spreads across the Earth in every nation and the devil followers mingle amongst the wealthy, business leaders, governments, royalty, organisations, including the media and law enforcement, the judiciary and the Church.

Please do not underestimate their powers. While they are in small numbers, and do not infiltrate every section of your communities, they will still do terrible damage. Not only have they sold their souls to the devil, but they will drag other innocent souls into the abyss with the beast and his demons.

I am giving all those who love Me the Graces to defeat this sinister and powerful group, who curse Me every second of the day, when you say this short Crusade Prayer.

Crusade (112): For the Grace of Salvation

Dearest Jesus, I call on You to cover the souls of those who have been infested by Satan with Your special Grace of Salvation.
Free their poor souls from the wicked captivity from which they cannot escape. Amen.

These poor souls will be the first to claim the beast as their own and they will fall flat on their faces to adore the antichrist. You must pray hard, all of you, so that the power, which Satan holds over them, can be broken and that their hearts will be opened to My Great Mercy.

Your Jesus”

Thursday of the Thirteenth Week in Ordinary Time
Lectionary: 380

Reading 1 Am 7:10-17

Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, sent word to Jeroboam,
king of Israel:
“Amos has conspired against you here within Israel;
the country cannot endure all his words.
For this is what Amos says:
Jeroboam shall die by the sword,
and Israel shall surely be exiled from its land.”To Amos, Amaziah said:
“Off with you, visionary, flee to the land of Judah!
There earn your bread by prophesying,
but never again prophesy in Bethel;
for it is the king’s sanctuary and a royal temple.”
Amos answered Amaziah, “I was no prophet,
nor have I belonged to a company of prophets;
I was a shepherd and a dresser of sycamores.
The LORD took me from following the flock, and said to me,
‘Go, prophesy to my people Israel.’
Now hear the word of the LORD!”You say: prophesy not against Israel,
preach not against the house of Isaac.
Now thus says the LORD:
Your wife shall be made a harlot in the city,
and your sons and daughters shall fall by the sword;
Your land shall be divided by measuring line,
and you yourself shall die in an unclean land;
Israel shall be exiled far from its land.

Responsorial Psalm Ps 19:8, 9, 10, 11

R. (10cd) The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
The law of the LORD is perfect,
refreshing the soul;
The decree of the LORD is trustworthy,
giving wisdom to the simple.
R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
The precepts of the LORD are right,
rejoicing the heart;
The command of the LORD is clear,
enlightening the eye.
R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
The fear of the LORD is pure,
enduring forever;
The ordinances of the LORD are true,
all of them just.
R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.
They are more precious than gold,
than a heap of purest gold;
Sweeter also than syrup
or honey from the comb.
R. The judgments of the Lord are true, and all of them are just.

Gospel Mt 9:1-8

After entering a boat, Jesus made the crossing, and came into his own town.
And there people brought to him a paralytic lying on a stretcher.
When Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic,
“Courage, child, your sins are forgiven.”
At that, some of the scribes said to themselves,
“This man is blaspheming.”
Jesus knew what they were thinking, and said,
“Why do you harbor evil thoughts?

Which is easier, to say, ‘Your sins are forgiven,’
or to say, ‘Rise and walk’?
But that you may know that the Son of Man
has authority on earth to forgive sins”–
he then said to the paralytic,
“Rise, pick up your stretcher, and go home.”
He rose and went home.
When the crowds saw this they were struck with awe
and glorified God who had given such authority to men.”

Orthodox (Greek Catholic):

Jesus Explains the Parable of the Weeds

36 Then he left the crowds and went into the house. And his disciples approached him, saying, “Explain to us the parable of the weeds of the field.” 37 He answered, “The one who sows the good seed is the Son of Man; 38 the field is the world, and the good seed are the children of the kingdom; the weeds are the children of the evil one, 39 and the enemy who sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. 40 Just as the weeds are collected and burned up with fire, so will it be at the end of the age. 41 The Son of Man will send his angels, and they will collect out of his kingdom all causes of sin and all evildoers, 42 and they will throw them into the furnace of fire, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then the righteous will shine like the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Let anyone with ears[d] listen!

Three Parables

44 “The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which someone found and hid; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field. …”

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+13%3A31-44&version=NRSVCE;NR2006;SCH2000;ERV-HU;BDS

“… 18 Do not deceive yourselves. If you think that you are wise in this age, you should become fools so that you may become wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written,

“He catches the wise in their craftiness,”

20 and again,

“The Lord knows the thoughts of the wise,
    that they are futile.”

21 So let no one boast about human leaders. For all things are yours, 22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future—all belong to you, 23 and you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God.” …

When the Truth is declared, it is not easily accepted, though It be the Word of God. Yet, when lies are presented, dressed up as the Truth, they are more readily accepted, and in most cases, greeted with warm and welcoming arms. Be warned about the lies, which will be presented by My enemies, who declare themselves as My spokespersons. They will misguide you in many ways, for fear that you will catch them out in their deceit. They will spend their time associating with those known to the world as good and holy, pure servants – many of whom are now in Heaven with Me. By association they will be seen to be loyal disciples of such saints. Then they will repeat the Truth of My Teachings and this will confuse you. You will say: “But how can this be?” “This man speaks the truth.” “

841. He will use the Truth of God to hide behind, until the right moment

838. As bitterness divides nations, mistrust and fear will continue to cause civil unrest

The Book of Truth:
My dearly beloved daughter, the wars and unrest, as foretold, spread like wild fires all over the Earth. Very few parts of the world will be unaffected by wars and rumours of discord.As bitterness divides nations, mistrust and fear will continue to cause civil unrest, unchristian laws will continue to mount, so that murder and abortion, as well as acts against the Holy Sacraments, will be passed in your countries. Many will be led into sin, because of such laws, and very soon the pain of darkness of the soul will be present and few will be able to ignore this.

Why, they will ask, is there such a strange atmosphere, where trust for one another has disappeared? Why is it difficult to act out our lives as dictated by Christ, for fear of being labeled a fool? The answer lies in the fact that your countries, one by one, have not only condemned Me, again, but declare sin to be lawful. When this happens, Satan and his army run amuck.

They have become very powerful and through all the liberal laws, which condone sin, they become truly accepted and then there will be no peace in the hearts of man, as a result. It will be as if children, stolen from their parents and taken prisoner, are fed niceties to make up for the fact that they are in captivity. For all the pleasures they are offered, they will not bring comfort. Instead, these children will feel restless, empty and will long to feel true love, which can only be brought about by the presence of the parents.

God’s Presence is still there in your nations, but as I, the Son of Man, Am being quickly dismissed, through the introductions of evil laws in your lands and soon through your churches, you will be like stray orphans with nowhere to lay your heads.

Without God, there is no peace. Without Me, Jesus Christ, Present through My Teachings, you are being slowly starved. Do not allow such laws to stop your devotion to Me, for at this time more than any other time, I will come to you and give you the comfort you crave.

I love you. I cry for your desolation and I promise that this persecution will be short-lived.

Your Jesus”

Seek good and not evil,
that you may live;

Hate evil and love good,
and let justice prevail at the gate;
Then it may be that the LORD, the God of hosts,

I take no pleasure in your solemnities;
Your cereal offerings I will not accept,

Away with your noisy songs!
I will not listen to the melodies of your harps.
But if you would offer me burnt offerings,

When Jesus came to the territory of the Gadarenes,
two demoniacs who were coming from the tombs met him.
They were so savage that no one could travel by that road.
They cried out, “What have you to do with us, Son of God?
Have you come here to torment us before the appointed
time?”
Some distance away a herd of many swine was feeding.
The demons pleaded with him,
“If you drive us out, send us into the herd of swine.”
And he said to them, “Go then!”
They came out and entered the swine,
and the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea
where they drowned.
The swineherds ran away,
and when they came to the town they reported everything,
including what had happened to the demoniacs.
Thereupon the whole town came out to meet Jesus,
and when they saw him they begged him to leave their district.”

The Parable of the Mustard Seed

31 He put before them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed that someone took and sowed in his field; 32 it is the smallest of all the seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches.”

The Parable of the Yeast

33 He told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like yeast that a woman took and mixed in with[a] three measures of flour until all of it was leavened.”

The Use of Parables

34 Jesus told the crowds all these things in parables; without a parable he told them nothing. 35 This was to fulfill what had been spoken through the prophet:[b]

“I will open my mouth to speak in parables;
    I will proclaim what has been hidden from the foundation of the world.”[c]…”

793. The miracles I promised the world, through My Crusade Prayers, will increase

The Book of Truth:
My dearly beloved daughter, it does not matter if you must endure pain because of the way in which you are rejected because of Me, for My Word will never die. It will rise and become louder until, like a powerful wind, it will increase in intensity until the roar of My Voice will peal out like thunder across the Earth. There will be very few who will not hear My Voice and even those who reject Me will continue to speak of Me. They will find it impossible to ignore.Like any child begotten of its mother, God’s children – including those who refuse to acknowledge Him – will be drawn towards Him, for they cannot help it. Like a new baby who bonds with its mother, every child of God will recognise his own through touch, sound and smell. God’s children will sense when the Presence of God touches their souls. Just as I know My own, so also will those who love Me respond to My call.My daughter, the Holy Will of God is Powerful and will defeat all those who oppose the Word of God. When you feel that there is so much opposition and so much hatred towards this Mission, you must always be comforted by My Solemn Promise. That is to save all souls, so that My New Paradise can be presented to humanity soon and with as little suffering as possible. Suffering can be reduced through the prayers of My Remnant Army, because I bequeath to them special graces.

The miracles I promised the world, through My Crusade Prayers, will increase and many will witness healings and conversions. It will be through these miracles that I will make Myself known, even to the most hardened of sceptics. It will be through the Crusade Prayers that servants of My Christian Churches will be shown My Mercy and soon many of them will be given the proof of the authenticity of these Messages.

My Will will be done and no man will stop it. Many will oppose My Will, scream abuse at My Word and spit at you, My daughter, but their hatred will be wiped out and soon they will open their hearts, for they will be in no doubt that it is their Master Who calls them. I Am the Vessel through which they will be purified. It will be through Me that they will be given the only possible protection from the antichrist. My protection must be sought out and the Seal of the Living God must be given to as many souls as possible.

Listen to My instructions and all will be well. Ignore My warnings and try to fight the injustices, which will be widespread when the world is run by the hand of the beast, on your own and you will not be strong enough. Accept My Gifts and you will remain standing, safe in the knowledge that I Am protecting you and your family and friends.

Your Jesus”

Friday of the Sixth Week of Easter
Lectionary: 295

Reading 1 Acts 18:9-18

One night while Paul was in Corinth, the Lord said to him in a vision,
Do not be afraid.
Go on speaking, and do not be silent, for I am with you.
No one will attack and harm you,
for I have many people in this city.

He settled there for a year and a half
and taught the word of God among them.But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia,
the Jews rose up together against Paul
and brought him to the tribunal, saying,
“This man is inducing people to worship God contrary to the law.”
When Paul was about to reply, Gallio spoke to the Jews,
“If it were a matter of some crime or malicious fraud,
I should with reason hear the complaint of you Jews;
but since it is a question of arguments over doctrine and titles
and your own law, see to it yourselves.
I do not wish to be a judge of such matters.”
And he drove them away from the tribunal.
They all seized Sosthenes, the synagogue official,
and beat him in full view of the tribunal.
But none of this was of concern to Gallio.Paul remained for quite some time,
and after saying farewell to the brothers he sailed for Syria,
together with Priscilla and Aquila.
At Cenchreae he had shaved his head because he had taken a vow.

Gospel Jn 16:20-23

Jesus said to his disciples:
“Amen, amen, I say to you, you will weep and mourn,
while the world rejoices;
you will grieve, but your grief will become joy.

When a woman is in labor, she is in anguish because her hour has arrived;
but when she has given birth to a child,
she no longer remembers the pain because of her joy
that a child has been born into the world.

So you also are now in anguish.
But I will see you again, and your hearts will rejoice,
and no one will take your joy away from you.
On that
day you will not question me about anything.
Amen, amen, I say to you,
whatever you ask the Father in my name he will give you.” “

“10.  The Lord does not let the righteous go hungry,
    but he thwarts the craving of the wicked.

The wise of heart will heed commandments,
    but a babbling fool will come to ruin.

31 The mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom,
    but the perverse tongue will be cut off.
32 The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable,
    but the mouth of the wicked what is perverse.”
 

5 But some believers who belonged to the sect of the Pharisees stood up and said, “It is necessary for them to be circumcised and ordered to keep the law of Moses.”The apostles and the elders met together to consider this matter. After there had been much debate, Peter stood up and said to them, “My brothers,[a] you know that in the early days God made a choice among you, that I should be the one through whom the Gentiles would hear the message of the good news and become believers. And God, who knows the human heart, testified to them by giving them the Holy Spirit, just as he did to us; and in cleansing their hearts by faith he has made no distinction between them and us. 10 Now therefore why are you putting God to the test by placing on the neck of the disciples a yoke that neither our ancestors nor we have been able to bear? 11 On the contrary, we believe that we will be saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, just as they will.””

Jesus Is Rejected by the Jews22 At that time the festival of the Dedication took place in Jerusalem. It was winter, 23 and Jesus was walking in the temple, in the portico of Solomon. 24 So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, “How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah,[b] tell us plainly.” 25 Jesus answered, “I have told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in my Father’s name testify to me; 26 but you do not believe, because you do not belong to my sheep. 27 My sheep hear my voice. I know them, and they follow me. 28 I give them eternal life, and they will never perish. No one will snatch them out of my hand.”

789. Mother of God: The Mission you have been given is the final link in the final Covenant

The Book of Truth:
My dear child, I have revealed to you, during this very special apparition today, the secret of my Heart and how it is entwined with the Sacred Heart of my beloved Son. My Heart beats in union with His and as Co-Redemptrix. I will work to bring so many of God’s children into the New Era of Peace.As the Mother of God, I have been given power over the beast, and all those who invoke my help will be granted great protection from him. Because of this special power, given to me by my Son, every attempt will be made to dishonour my Name during the reign of the beast. Public events will be organised to honour my wishes of uniting all God’s children. Sadly, not all of them will respect the Truth.

I have revealed the Truth at La Salette, in France, and at Fatima, in Portugal, yet many do not understand what it is that I explained. Soon, the prophecies foretold will become a reality and then the hatred, which the evil one has for me, will be manifested in special ceremonies, which will be insulting to God.

My Son has created a very special plan, which has been crafted to every single detail, in order to ensure that the world is given the Truth about the enemies of God. He does this because only the Truth can save the human race. Should God’s children follow lies and become involved with deceit, borne of the plan of the antichrist, then, they will turn their backs on my Son and their own salvation.

The Mission you have been given, my child, is the final link in the final Covenant, which my Son must complete in obedience to my Father, God the Most High. It will be the instrument by which souls will be salvaged from the grasp of Satan and his evil army on Earth. Because of this, the hatred shown to you through the words, deeds and actions of others will be cruel and fierce. The anger shown against you will be like no other and you must understand that this is to be expected. My Son’s Work, in these times, will be bitterly opposed and He and His Church on Earth will have to endure a final Crucifixion before the resurrection, promised to all those who believe in my Son, takes place.

The hatred is real and the evil one will turn the minds of even those chosen souls and visionaries against you, my child. Never feel sad for yourself or those souls, because the suffering of my Son is ten times worse. It is my Son, the Saviour and Redeemer of mankind, Who died for the sins of man, Who is still hated with a passion, which is borne out of anger and orchestrated by Satan. It is my Son Who is the subject of such attacks and when they fling insults at you, my child, they scourge Him all over again.

You must rise, all of you, and do as my Son tells you, as you have been chosen to form His Remnant Army. When you suffer in His Name, it is for the glory of God and the salvation of humanity. When the New Heaven and the New Earth become one, such suffering will cease and all will sing praise to God.

Your beloved Mother, Mother of God, Mother of Salvation”

Monday of the Sixth Week of Easter
Lectionary: 291

Reading 1 Acts 16:11-15

We set sail from Troas, making a straight run for Samothrace,
and on the next day to Neapolis, and from there to Philippi,
a leading city in that district of Macedonia and a Roman colony.
We spent some time in that city.
On the sabbath we went outside the city gate along the river
where we thought there would be a place of prayer.
We sat and spoke with the women who had gathered there.
One of them, a woman named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth,
from the city of Thyatira, a worshiper of God, listened,

and the Lord opened her heart to pay attention
to what Paul was saying.
After she and her household had been baptized,
she offered us an invitation,
“If you consider me a believer in the Lord,
come and stay at my home,” and she prevailed on us.

Responsorial Psalm Ps 149:1b-2, 3-4, 5-6a and 9b

Let the high praises of God be in their throats.
This is the glory of all his faithful. Alleluia.

Gospel Jn 15:26—16:4a

Jesus said to his disciples:
“When the Advocate comes whom I will send you from the Father,
the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father,
he will testify to me.
And you also testify,
because you have been with me from the beginning.”I have told you this so that you may not fall away.
They will expel you from the synagogues;
in fact, the hour is coming when everyone who kills you

will think he is offering worship to God.
They will do this because they have not known either the Father or me.
I have told you this so that when their hour comes
you may remember that I told you.” ”

Orthodox (Greek Catholic):

Jesus the Good Shepherd

10 “Very truly, I tell you, anyone who does not enter the sheepfold by the gate but climbs in by another way is a thief and a bandit. The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep hear his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes ahead of them, and the sheep follow him because they know his voice. They will not follow a stranger, but they will run from him because they do not know the voice of strangers.” Jesus used this figure of speech with them, but they did not understand what he was saying to them.

So again Jesus said to them, “Very truly, I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who came before me are thieves and bandits; but the sheep did not listen to them. I am the gate. Whoever enters by me will be saved, and will come in and go out and find pasture. 10 The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.”

“…. 12 As soon as he realized this, he went to the house of Mary, the mother of John whose other name was Mark, where many had gathered and were praying. 13 When he knocked at the outer gate, a maid named Rhoda came to answer. 14 On recognizing Peter’s voice, she was so overjoyed that, instead of opening the gate, she ran in and announced that Peter was standing at the gate. 15 They said to her, “You are out of your mind!” But she insisted that it was so. They said, “It is his angel.” 16 Meanwhile Peter continued knocking; and when they opened the gate, they saw him and were amazed. 17 He motioned to them with his hand to be silent, and described for them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he added, “Tell this to James and to the believers.”[a] Then he left and went to another place.”https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+12%3A12-17&version=NRSVCE;NR2006;SCH2000;ERV-HU;BDS


42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I came from God and now I am here. I did not come on my own, but he sent me. 43 Why do you not understand what I say? It is because you cannot accept my word. 44 You are from your father the devil, and you choose to do your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning and does not stand in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks according to his own nature, for he is a liar and the father of lies. 45 But because I tell the truth, you do not believe me. 46 Which of you convicts me of sin? If I tell the truth, why do you not believe me? 47 Whoever is from God hears the words of God. The reason you do not hear them is that you are not from God.”

48 The Jews answered him, “Are we not right in saying that you are a Samaritan and have a demon?” 49 Jesus answered, “I do not have a demon; but I honor my Father, and you dishonor me. 50 Yet I do not seek my own glory; there is one who seeks it and he is the judge. 51 Very truly, I tell you, whoever keeps my word will never see death.” 52 The Jews said to him, “Now we know that you have a demon. Abraham died, and so did the prophets; yet you say, ‘Whoever keeps my word will never taste death.’ 53 Are you greater than our father Abraham, who died? The prophets also died. Who do you claim to be?” 54 Jesus answered, “If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my Father who glorifies me, he of whom you say, ‘He is our God,’ 55 though you do not know him. But I know him; if I would say that I do not know him, I would be a liar like you. But I do know him and I keep his word.”

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

The Book of Truth:
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”

Friday in the Octave of Easter
Lectionary: 265

Reading 1 Acts 4:1-12

After the crippled man had been cured,
while Peter and John were still speaking to the people,
the priests, the captain of the temple guard,
and the Sadducees confronted them,
disturbed that they were teaching the people
and proclaiming in Jesus the resurrection of the dead.
They laid hands on Peter and John
and put them in custody until the next day,
since it was already evening
.
But many of those who heard the word came to believe
and the number of men grew to about five thousand
.

On the next day, their leaders, elders, and scribes
were assembled in Jerusalem, with Annas the high priest,
Caiaphas, John, Alexander,
and all who were of the high-priestly class.
They brought them into their presence and questioned them,
“By what power or by what name have you done this?”
Then Peter, filled with the Holy Spirit, answered them,
“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
.”

Gospel Jn 21:1-14

Jesus revealed himself again to his disciples at the Sea of Tiberias.
He revealed himself in this way.
Together were Simon Peter, Thomas called Didymus,
Nathanael from Cana in Galilee,
Zebedee’s sons, and two others of his disciples.
Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.”
They said to him, “We also will come with you.”
So they went out and got into the boat,
but that night they caught nothing.
When it was already dawn, Jesus was standing on the shore;
but the disciples did not realize that it was Jesus.
Jesus said to them, “Children, have you caught anything to eat?”
They answered him, “No.”
So he said to them, “Cast the net over the right side of the boat
and you will find something.”
So they cast it, and were not able to pull it in
because of the number of fish.
So the disciple whom Jesus loved said to Peter, “It is the Lord.”
When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord,
he tucked in his garment, for he was lightly clad,
and jumped into the sea.
The other disciples came in the boat,
for they were not far from shore, only about a hundred yards,
dragging the net with the fish.
When they climbed out on shore,
they saw a charcoal fire with fish on it and bread.
Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish you just caught.”
So Simon Peter went over and dragged the net ashore
full of one hundred fifty-three large fish.
Even though there were so many, the net was not torn
.
Jesus said to them, “Come, have breakfast.”
And none of the disciples dared to ask him, “Who are you?”
because they realized it was the Lord.
Jesus came over and took the bread and gave it to them,
and in like manner the fish.
This was now the third time Jesus was revealed to his disciples
after being raised from the dead
.”
