I PERMIT IT

Write, son:

I, Jesus, the eternal Word of God, at one time suffered the evil action of Satan, filled with hatred and with envy, and who made use of Judas, who was totally dominated by my obstinate enemy; today I suffer it by means of so many Judases, who celebrate the sacrifice of the Mass in mortal sin, and in sin they administer my sacraments.

Therefore, Satan is working next to Me, and let no one be astonished, if I permit it to be so.

The motives are many; I do not wish to restrain his freedom; Satan has freely chosen evil, and is frozen in it. Thus I have wished it, so that, on the day of the last judgment, he will not have any reason to justify his final defeat.

Today what is realized in the souls of many of my priests, instigated and assaulted by the demon, is as grave as the sacrilegious treason of Judas; even more, it is a continuous and cynical betrayal.

The super-sacrilegious action of Satan is not believed in nor evaluated in its abominable consequences; they do not believe in the one who is the first cause of your most grave evils; they do not believe in Satan, whose daring and boldness is without measure. I, the eternal Word of God made flesh, to the action of Satan, respond with an act of humility, first washing the feet of my apostles, and then instituting the sacrament of the Eucharist.

To the unlimited pride of Satan, I gave an answer of infinite humility, and I continue giving it, even to the new Judases of succeeding centuries.

Watch and pray

I gave to my apostles another precious teaching, in order not to fall into the plots and traps of Satan:

“Vigilate et orate, ut non intrétis in tentationem.”

Watch and pray, so that you may not enter into temptation.

With the sacrilegious communion that Judas received, he fulfilled the words: “He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood unworthily, eats and drinks his own condemnation”, tremendous words that have their fulfillment in the souls of those priests who end their trial upon earth in an evil manner.

Satan tempted the apostles who were also with Me and he induced them into his designs, because they did not appreciate my words: “Vigilate et orate,” that I directed to them, to warn them and prepare them against the temptation of the enemy. How can my priests save themselves from spiritual ruin, when they pray so little, and those who never pray? How much truth in the words of St. Alphonsus: “He who prays is saved; he who does not pray is condemned!”

The demon made sport of the apostles, who in Gethsemani fled in a vile manner; and among the twelve, one betrayed Me and another denied Me, swearing that he had never known Me.

Satan also made sport of the Hebrew priests; hypocrites, egotistical and impure. They prayed only in public and they did it for show, not by conviction; their faith was not true; it was only an exterior formalism. This kind of priesthood was not extinguished, but it continues multiplying in my Church. My Church will be cleansed of these vipers, who intoxicate with their poison all those who approach them.

Satan successfully worked upon Pilate, upon the soldiers of the temple, and upon the Roman soldiers, with a few exceptions.

Satan tried to work in the two thieves who were crucified with Me; one knew how to believe; he implored Me and was saved; the other did not believe and died blaspheming Me.

He does not exclude anyone

Satan did not exclude anyone, nor even my Mother, whose spirit was waylaid with a doubt about my Resurrection; but he could not even make the smallest scratch upon the immaculate soul of Mary, the resplendent temple of the Holy Ghost; few are those who, likewise tempted, remain immune to the corrosive action of the demon.

Remember, the good disciples of Emmaus and so many other friends of mine, were not excluded from temptation, and they yielded to discouragement.

The wicked work of Satan, since the fall of man, has not decreased, and it will continue until the consummation of time, when he also will be judged for the second time with all his legions; on that day he will have to admit with all desperation, to having lost the war, provoked and fought by him, in spite of the liberty of action that was granted to him.

On that tremendous day, in which will shine divine justice, he will no longer have the possibility of doing harm; then he will have to shamefully admit that he, Lucifer, the most beautiful creature of the universe, the most intelligent and powerful creature, was defeated by a weak human creature, very inferior to him in nature, but immensely superior in grace. This will be his humiliating torture for all eternity, and a similar torment will be suffered by the condemned souls, and in a particular way by the consecrated traitors, for whom I invite you to pray and to offer yourself, so they may be converted and live. With you I bless all my priests.
