THE GREAT TRUTHS

By the lips of Wisdom it is said:

Meditare novissima tua et in aeternum non peccabis.

The Holy Spirit wanted to put before your souls four great realities:

Death - Judgment - Hell - Paradise.

Because ... one must die!

The truth of death is a concrete reality, a reality that, indirectly, you experience every day, and one day you will experience it directly. Nevertheless, my son, it might seem uncertain to you; but truly almost no one thinks of it; they live more or less carefree, as if they were never going to die.

Who is the one who is inducing men, Christians, and priests, to forget these words of the Holy Spirit, of thinking about death, from which no one can escape? It is Satan, always him, who always encompasses the human soul with his cleverness and seductions, with his lies, “like a lion looking for someone to devour.” You have been placed upon guard; it was said to you that he roars, but he cannot bite you unless you yourselves expose yourselves voluntarily. You have at your disposal so much enlightenment upon this subject: Sacred Scripture, the lives of the saints and of the martyrs, and they are all a history of tremendous battles between man and the Prince of darkness; remember the angel of Tobias that delivered Sara, and thousands of other episodes.

The guardian angel

In this battle I did not want man to be alone, for the fight would have been unequal, and so I placed at his side an angel of mine, an angel always disposed and ready to intervene every time that he is asked. Unfortunately incredulity has as its result that very few have recourse to him. How many times my angels, your custodians, are obliged to an almost complete passivity, because of the incredulity of men! How often they are obliged to retire, to not be present at the ruin that man makes of himself!

Poor man that gropes in darkness, even after I traced out for him a pathway of light!

There are so many means of defense!

There are sacraments, sacramentals, prayer, but no means is of any use when the soul is in darkness, and today many souls are in the most profound darkness; the lack of faith brings darkness to souls.

If you do not do penance...

The greatest crisis of faith from the creation of man until these days, is the present one.

The habit of formalism in Christian life deludes many and makes them think they are on the right path, just as the priests, scribes and pharisees believed so during the time when I was on earth, in my visible humanity. In all times and in all places the fight between good and evil always bears its immutable seal. If the atheistic humanity of today does not stand up and does not seek to get rid of the dust and smoke that obscures its soul, the greater part of it will perish.

The sarcasm and ironies of the pseudo-theologians and of the proud priests, the cunning of the manipulators of corruption in all sectors of public and private life all this will not prevent the ruin that man is foolishly provoking.

Say this strongly in the limited time that yet remains; shout loudly like the prophet Jonas: “If you do not do penance, you will perish.” Say strongly that God cannot be laughed at with impunity.

Shout out loud that the hour of darkness is not desired by God, but by men themselves.

Shout strongly that my Mother has done much to withdraw the world from catastrophe; remind everyone of this: Lourdes, Fatima and a thousand other interventions, often suppressed by those whose task it was to judge with greater objectivity and less human respect. They were afraid of the judgment of the world.

Here is their fault: they put themselves first, not the truth; and now they speak only of the Mercy of God, and not of their responsibilities. When they make a pronouncement about these messages, will they also reject the light one more time?

I want to see everyone saved, but they resist Me; they love obscurity, and in darkness they will perish.

Do not fear; continue being faithful to Me. You are in my Heart and here no one can touch you, nor even scratch you.

I bless you, my son. Love Me and walk uprightly before Me. I am the way that many refuse to follow.
