CONFIRMATION MAKES TRUE AND GOOD “SOLDIERS”
Son, write.
In the preceding message I talked to you about the confirmation, a great and important Sacrament as they are all the Sacraments. It enrolls the Christians in my armies increasing in them dignity and power and making them true soldiers.
Soldier is he who must fight to defend himself and his native country, that means, family, language, culture and all the values of the civilization in which he lives and is plunged in, in the same way we must say the same thing about the Christian, made adult in his spirit by means of the confirmation, Sacrament instituted by Me, becomes “soldier” just because he be able to fight against all the adverse forces thrown against him by the staff of Hell, that’s to say by Lucifer, Satan and Beelzebub, so that, fighting with adeguate weapons, he be able to reject all the attacks directed against him and against the Church, Sacrament of salvation placed in the world to receive in its womb the souls wounded by the original sin, and because it may lead this great army towards the Promised Land, that is the true Country, that’s to say the House of the common Father who for your salvation hasn’t hesitated to send Me, his favourite Son on the earth to die on the Cross.
The confirmed mustn’t only fight also for a personal defense but for the great Family of God, the Church; in fact they are talented with a “wonderful “uniform of which they must always be proud; an undestroyable uniform and that once worn it will remain forever and such it will remain also in the Hell, but as a notice of a more tremendous punishment because in it the damned will recognize himself “a soldier” but a soldier who with the betrayal has darkened the splendor of that dignity and power he has enjoyed on the earth and by which he could have acquired a reign of eternal happiness.
It is necessary to give a divine and supernatural vision of the Sacrament
Confirmation is the sacrament that consecrates the christian as “a fighting soldier” against the adverse forces of evil and by its character that is imprinted indeliblely on his soul distinguishes the soldier of Christ from one that is not;
It is a precious gift that enriches the human nature of the christian of power and force putting the confirmed in the condition, as I have already told it, to defend himself and the Church in which he takes part; the Church which is repository and custodian of the priceless riches of the Divine Redemption;then by the gifts that the sacrament gives the confirmed acquires also rights and duties of which he must have a clear vision and a perfect conscience. In fact you can’t accomplish duties that you don’t know or of which you don’t have conscience.
From what I told you it is evident the great responsibility of the Pastors and of the Priests and of all those who have the delicate task of preparing the minds of the confirmation candidates to do it with a divine and supernatural vision of the nature of the Sacrament.This isn’t a human fact regarding the body, but it is a divine fact regarding the Spirit; its purpose is that of receiving by God the necessary force to win the battle that the confirmed will be obliged to sustain for the whole course of his worldly life.
The confirmation candidates must know the conditions well because the gift of God freely given, can produce its fruits.
The priests who don’t care to prepare well the mind of confirmation candidates and don’t verify if they are or not in the grace of God commit a grave sin before God. They demonstrate with this to lack that sensibility that should be connatural to “priestly fatherhood”.
What do you think about those priests who send the teenagers to the Holy Confirmation without Confession as if it was a thing of little importance?
At this point the sense of the pastoral action has diluted so much that it has extinguished at all!
Confirmation, true basis of all the Mystical Body
The confirmation candidates must know that all the three persons of the very Blessed Trinity intervene on the christian: the Father with Creation, the Son with Redemption and the Holy Spirit with Sanctification through the “descent” in the soul of the single candidate just in the confirmation!
I said that in my new Church the Sacrament of Confirmation will be reintegrated in its nature and it will be given again all that has been taken away from it today, depriving it of its supernatural meaning. Pastors and Priests must give again all the most careful attention to it because this Sacrement forms and it is a true basis for all the Mystical Body. It must be put again in its true and right light, since this Sacrament is comprehensible only if it is set in the giant and real conflict always in action among the powers of the light and those of the darkness.
Eyes tend to the light, because for this they have been created, intelligence tends towards truth because it has been given to us for it, but as the eyes that close not to see don’t destroy the light and the intelligence that refuses to face the reality and the truth doesn’t destroy them, so this culpable blindness of the christians doesn’t have any justifications, for this I told you that it won’t be mercy for all those who have suffocated in them the light of the reason and the light of the faith.
The Sacrament of the Confirmation will have in the new Church the place that competes to it and that it has in the divine plan of the regeneration of the Mystical Body.
I bless you, son, love me, with Me the very holy Virgin and Saint Joseph bless you with Me.
Pray and offer reparation.
