THE PATH IS ONE WAY ONLY
Son, many times I have indicated that the street is one way only. I use this term in vogue in the chaotic and corrupt modern cities.
A highway starts at a determined point, it goes through plains and mountains, between two edges that determine its width, and it ends at another point, the final goal. Well, my son, the life of every man is like a highway. It has its beginning point and its final goal. Each man has his path to run, marked out from all eternity.
But man, among all the creatures of the earth, is the only creature that is free and intelligent, capable of distinguishing between good and evil, and of wanting it or rejecting it. Therefore man is so great that he is similar to God. All the other creatures living on earth, in contrast to man, are obliged by their very nature to a fixed route. They are not allowed to leave and take different paths from those assigned to them by their Creator.
Man, a marvelous creature by virtue of his intelligent will, is free to accept the path traced out by God his Creator for him, who facilitates its attainment and the arrival at the final goal: the eternal salvation of his soul. It is something monstruous and strange when man uses this gift, that raises him above every other living being upon earth, in order to reject the path of his earthly exile and to take dark and tortuous pathways that lead him to ruin and to eternal perdition.
It is strange, for man has knowledge of his fall and of the seductions and cunning with which Satan, prince of lies, surrounds and seduces him.
Indeed, Satan can weaken the freedom of man, but he cannot destroy it, unless man himself helps him; but in whatever way it happens, the deflection of man is not justified, for I, the Word of God made flesh, have given a remedy for his weakness, offering him the precious fruits of my Redemption, whenever he wants to benefit from it, accepting and taking possession of these fruits. But if man takes another path and thus rejects God, he condemns himself.
My way
Nowadays men have abandoned Me, the way, the truth and the life, the straight and secure way, and have taken the way traced out by Satan, which is a coarse and false copy of that of God.
If they are not converted they will not be saved, notwithstanding the foolishness of the sowers of cockle in my vineyard, who have multiplied like locusts, injuring souls with their heresies. They are like incarnate demons, corroded by vanity and pride; their writings are no less damaging than pornographic books and are present everywhere, in seminaries, in convents, in schools. Their poison is death-dealing and they harvest victims, especially among the young.
The path of every man begins in the maternal womb and the point of arrival is bodily death, that determines the judgment without appeal, after which man begins eternal life, blessed or miserable, according as he used his free will.
I,the Word of God, begotten from all eternity by the Father, incarnated in the fulness of time in the most pure womb of my Mother and yours, am gloriously present at the right hand of the Father, and I am always in your midst in body, blood, soul and Divinity, in the mystery of faith and of love. I also desired to run my path in only one way upon earth, just like all other men. The beginning point was my virginal conception in the womb of my Mother; my point of arrival: the cross, and bodily death.
I, the way, have realized my course upon the earth for you, so that each one of you, following Me, would be helped on his path, and would not have doubts or uncertainty, nor would he lose his route dangerously.
My path is one way only; this means that it does not allow detours nor returns. My path is good and secure for every man of good will; it begins with an act of infinite humility.
Infinite humility
The Incarnation of Myself, the Son of God, was an act of infinite humility, so that it might be known by all men, that humility is the basic virtue, the secure and essential foundation of any other virtue.
It would be sufficient if so many pseudo-theologians would meditate a little upon this divine reality: I was born in a grotto, utterly poor, in a miserable manger, among cold and humidity; I began my path in the world in the most absolute poverty.
What do they think, those who say they are my followers, who favor the consumer civilization? What are my priests thinking about?
What do some theologians think about this, who love to write poisoned books with sophisms and complicated arguments, forgetting the divine simplicity of my gospel? I am a God infinitely simple, and I love simplicity. These theologians, who love comfortable apartments and homes with heating, never think that their Savior was born in a manger without any possessions of men.
They do not see the strident contrast between my life and theirs and of the Christians of today, covetous of riches and luxuries, who do not want to renounce anything, not even illicit things.
There are indifferent egotists, despisers of God, deaf to all calls of my Vicar, ready to oppose his words, for they do not feel any movement that arouses truth.
These priests of mine do not realize (and not all from the lower part of the hierarchy), the mud that they are throwing at my Church. They have forgotten the words of my apostle Paul: "The wrath of God is manifested from heaven against all iniquity and injustice of men, who detain the truth with injustice; in effect, that which is known of God is manifest in them."
I, the Word of God made flesh, manifested it clearly with the path that I traversed upon earth, with humility, poverty, and obedience, with the most atrocious suffering, with love for my Father and for my brethren.
Let everyone read them: Christians, priests and bishops; let them read well my words, transmitted to all of you by means of Paul in the Epistle to the Romans: “When they knew God, they have not glorified him as God or given thanks: but became vain in their thoughts; and their foolish heart was darkened. For, professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.” (Rom 1,21- 22).
Pride and presumption
Perchance are the Christians of today better than the pagans of 20 centuries ago?
Can it be claimed that the Christians of today will be saved from divine wrath, if they have abandoned the path, in order to become lost on the darksome and tortuous pathways of the most vile passions? They want to suppress my truth and bury it under the abyss of their pride and of their presumption.
Is not this what the false prophets are doing, propagators of a neoProtestantism worse than the first, hidden behind the mask of a loathsome hypocrisy?
They have chosen other ways, that are not mine, other foot-paths that are not mine. They frequently approach my mercy; until now it has been the time of mercy, but the hour of justice is about to arrive. My Father and yours will be terrible also in his justice.
In their formidable blindness they would want Me to disown my life, to disown my very identity of true God and true man.
Son, once more I ask you to shout this invitation strongly, directed to everyone, to an authentic conversion.
Do not fear the reactions that will arise. I want everyone saved, but if their obstinacy in pride does not end, they will be scattered like a handful of dust thrown into the wind.
If they do not want to open their eyes to the truth, that I, the light of the world, have brought, then they will possess darkness as a result, for time and for eternity.
I bless you, and with Me my Mother and yours blesses you also.
