REFORM OF INTERIOR LIFE

My son, I am Jesus, and I want to deal again with the subject of my Church.

The Church will be made anew, as I told you in preceding messages, but only with the efficacious participation of my Mystical Body, that should regenerate itself in love and in suffering. This truth will be of use to you, to better understand the buds of so many sprouts that tomorrow, unified, will form the garden of my Church. This also means that the Association of Hope will still continue to exist.

My son, remember everything I told you, in relation to the sterility of modern pastoral practice, that does not only not bear fruit, like the fig tree mentioned in the Gospel but it has even contaminated and poisoned nearly all the structures of the old Church, so deformed in comparison to the features I gave it at the moment of its birth.

The enemy, who is at the root of all evils, material, moral and social, is always the same: Satan, who with industrialization and with modern technology so proclaimed and magnified as a great conquest of science now, as never before, is unmasking his tragic deceit, placed like a trap for all of humanity. And humanity is now beginning to glimpse the great danger that lies before it, caused by contamination, that threatens all nature with death and destruction, total death and destruction for the stupendous dwelling, that I with my Father have given you.

But what is material contamination, before the graver contamination of souls? The objective of the enemy has always been, and only is: the spiritual and material ruin and death of humanity, that was conquered by him with his deceit, and was always kept oppressed and tyrannized with violence, with wars, with revolutions and death. And he who does not see all this today it is only due to culpable and voluntary blindness. My son, in the previous message you saw how his daring and aggression toward souls does not know limits; so much does hatred impel him, that he raises up, even in my very Church, men, priests and pastors, who with unheard of pride and together with the inimicus hominis. do not hesitate to sow in my vineyard, that is, in my Church, all kinds of errors and heresies.

Son, I want to remind you of another subject that you asked Me about one day: “It is certain, my Jesus, that in your Church there is much evil and putrefaction, but there is also much good.” And what did I answer? I answered you: "If I caused you to see what is behind the façade of my Church, you would die instantly." Now, my son, I want to explain in more detail the meaning of these words. You see much good, but all this good that you think you see, do you think it is entirely good? I do not deny, and I want to confirm it once again, that there are not lacking in my Church holy bishops, holy priests, truly brave and even heroic souls whose spiritual works, and even material ones, are animated by a supernatural vitality, and therefore are pleasing to God; but, son, I told you, and I now repeat it, that they are few, very few, in comparison to how evil, corruption and heresy are being spread, and they drag to eternal condemnation an extra-large number of souls.

And do you understand what eternal condemnation means?

I tried to make you comprehend it on another occasion: it means that all calamities, evils, sufferings, etc., from the creation of man until the end of time, are nothing, in comparison to only one soul that is condemned.

This is not exaggeration; it is truth, and very much is lacking to explain this fully.

Proclaim this truth forcefully to the blind and the deaf!

Proclaim to everyone that the heavenly Father sent Me to the Cross, so that not even one soul might perish!

With this, do you understand the tragedy of Calvary, that continues in the Mass and in my Mystical Body, for the salvation of souls?

Do you understand the immensity of the battle between Life and Death, between Light and Darkness, between Truth and Heresy?

Try to understand and to perceive, not only the great evils of the exterior world, of matter, but also what is much greater, immensely greater, the evils of souls.

So many works and activities of modern pastoral practice are deprived of their soul: an upright intention

Yes, my son, many are the works and activities of modern pastoral practice, but so many of these works are deprived of, and are lacking their soul: an upright intention. You always see the activity exteriorly, but it is not always granted to everyone to see the spirit that animates it; but I, my son, see many of these activities with the same aspect that cadavers in an advanced state of putrefaction present.

Works without faith are not acceptable to God. And pride and arrogance have extinguished faith in many souls. Then, how can a pastoral practice be pleasing to God, when it revolves around a merely human faith, without the soul of the supernatural, upon a "rational" human faith the enemy of supernatural faith?

Behold the explanation, my son, and do not be deceived, for only a few privileged souls will understand this; the others will not, and hence the aversion they nourish in relation to you.

It is enough for now, my son; you are tired, but bear it, in order to pray the holy Rosary in communion with the saints of heaven and of earth. Love Me intensely.

I bless you, and I extend this blessing to all those who love you and who are dear to you. Do not be disturbed because of the troubles that the enemy wants to bring to you in ever greater measure.
