March 28, 2016 - Easter Monday

                R. We see in the reading from Holy Saturday
                we are called by God and we are to
                respond. God has the plan – We
                pray to the Holy Spirit to see through the eyes
                of God. God has called us to contribute
                to the building of His Kingdom. We are
                to seek God's plan and live our lives
                doing what He has called us to do.
                He has given us the ability to have
                children and to bring younger people
                into His plan to build the Kingdom of God.
                It is all about salvation history
                for the people of the human race.
                We pray for our priests, the Church
                and the world – with Jesus the King
                and Center of our hearts and Mary
                our heavenly Mother. The Father has
                the plan for our purpose in this life,
                how we are to do His will – The Holy Spirit
                guides us into this Plan for our
                eternal happiness and leading others
                to heaven.

                    We are Easter people. Jesus came,
                the Son of God, He took flesh – He
                lived, the Son of Mary and He died
                and rose so we could some day
                go to heaven if we do as God wants
                us to do. But God wants our love,
                God gives us a free will to love
                Him and choose His Plan and
                live by His plan –

                    Now look at your life here. From
                being a baby to where you are today.
                Relationships are what we must learn
                to have – with God who is our Divine God,
                with parents, with friends, with
                school and Church people,
                neighbors and our family, spouse, children,
                grandchildren, in-laws – business
                relationships etc.

                    Children learn how to relate in
                homes. Children learn obedience
                in homes. Children watch mom
                and dad and how men think of
                women and women think of men,
                first in the family. Children learn
                how to think about themselves from
                those who told them how they were
                with others.

                    Children learn about brother
                and sister relationships by what
                goes on at home, what is right,
                what is wrong – how to settle
                conflicts fairly in love, how to
                settle conflicts at all.

                    Children learn about force,
                and getting your way – men and
                women fighting each other or
                love.

                    Children learn their place –
                being under mom and dad –
                manipulation – working with
                others in the world –

                    Children learn about rules
                and dysfunction and family
                secrets – Christianity – fairness –
                respect for each other, commitments,
                anger and kindness –

                    Children learn how to work
                with others outside the family
                or in dysfunctional families –
                not work with others to stay
                in their dysfunction.

                    As people grow they learn to take
                this learning on relationships out
                to school, work, Church,
                marriage, children etc.

                    In a business an inventory
                of what is happening makes for
                the success of the business.
                Every month – a large business
                must report to the company if
                they are a franchise – They can
                meet with other men in the
                other franchises and work on
                their problem to better serve
                people and to sell a certain product.

                    It is about working together,
                in unity – in communication –
                in respect, in authority, in
                order.

                    God has shown us order – in
                the bugs, in animals,
                God shows us order. Eve brought
                disorder to the human race –
                she didn't know her place –
                she wanted to be equal to God.
                God has put order into
                creation.

                    To ignore order is very silly.
                In the end we are to show God –
                how we used our talents and
                worked together in love for the
                building of God's Kingdom.

                    We have been given our lives
                to work God's plan, to learn how
                to get along with others in love –
                to have relationships with God,
                with others and to love ourselves
                as God wants – develop self-esteem
                according to our calling God
                has given us –

                    We are to follow Jesus, not talk about
                it and stay closed in where we don't
                work with others. We are to work
                in structure – to live as members
                of the Body of Christ in the Church –
                to do the best we can do with the
                calling God has given us.

                    God has commissioned us in baptism
                to go out and to spread the Good News.
                This is the day the Lord has made –
                We are to live by His Plan – to
                help in the building of the Kingdom of God –
                We will answer to God on how
                we loved in relationships –
                loved God, loved others God asked
                us to work with –
                how we saw ourselves through God's
                eyes and not on a pity-pot –
                but saw the creation of God we are
                and answered His call in our
                vocation.

                    We are to be people thanking God –
                gratitude people for what has
                been given to us.

                    The sacraments are such a
                gift. The gift of baptism, sharing
                in God's life – knowing the presence
                of God in our graced baptized
                soul. Knowing the gift of the
                Eucharist – Jesus loves us so
                much He comes to us and we receive
                Him in the Eucharist, Body, Blood,
                Soul and Divinity.

                    We are to follow Christ – Can we
                really say if Christ was here –               
                He would act like us like we
                are in relationships?

                    We are to lead a life of
                resurrection – We have been
                raised up in Christ.

                    We are to focus on eternal
                life in why we perform
                actions. We aren't to live
                in fear and be closed in
                in darkness –
 

                R. We are to be Easter people – living
                the mystery of death/resurrection,
                dying to those ways – not like
                Jesus and rising in Jesus!!!
                Alleluia!! We are to live a
                new life in Jesus Christ.

                    We have the Good News! Jesus
                has risen! Death has no power
                over Jesus! This must bring
                us joy to be Easter people,
                following Jesus.
 

1 Peter 2: 2

Like new-born babies all your longing should be for milk - the unadulterated spiritual milk - which will help you to grow up to salvation,

                R. We see in the early Church how
                they lived communally and they
                prayed in one mind and one heart.

                    Give thanks to God for these gifts –
                Praise Him, Love Him, be joyful,
                be resurrection people.

                    In all the darkness in the world
                today Jesus has given us this message
                to pray these prayers – where men
                consecrate their hearts to Jesus and Mary –
                the Hearts of perfect love –

                    Love is the Focus –

                    Knowing our place UNDER God!

                    Putting God first –

                Our strength and our courage
                    comes from doing God's will –
                    being resurrection people

                Consecrating our hearts to Jesus and Mary
                    helps us to be pure and holy
                    and loving and
                    living according to God's will.

                We see the story of the doubting
                    Thomas. Jesus rose from the
                    dead – We must pray to believe
                    and have greater and greater
                    faith from this, beg for grace
                    to have greater faith and
                    be all God wants us to be –
                    Resurrection People!

                We see the unity in the early
                    Church – We pray in these
                    prayers Jesus gave Fr. Carter for
                    unity in the Church and the world.

                    We use these materials on the
                Mass and prayers and Morning
                Offerings to unite to the Mass
                all day, the sacrifice of Calvary,
                sacramentally made present.

                    In the Resurrection we see
                VICTORY
 

                R. The community of the early
                Church were in one mind and
                one heart. So Jesus gave us
                these prayers.

                R. We see miracles performed by
                the Apostles in the Early Church
                because of their faith, their
                holiness. Give thanks to God
                and pray for faith. Many people
                don't change and it is
                because they don't want to –
                To be converted we must want
                to serve God first above all
                else and want to be holy and
                then pray hard for God's grace
                to do it.

                People are praying for this grace
                with us, for the Church and the world –
                united to the Mass in the
                Morning Offering.

                We cannot emphasize how
                there is so much power in
                the prayer the way Jesus
                taught us to pray here!!

                    We are to follow Christ!
                We are to not just talk about
                it, but to bend our stubborn
                heart and will – to be transformed –
                a new creation in Him. We have
                to want to change – We go to the
                Eucharist to be more and more
                like Christ – to put on Christ!

Acts 2: 14, 22-28

Then Peter stood up with the Eleven and addressed them in a loud voice: 

    ‘Men of Judaea, and all you who live in Jerusalem, make no mistake about this, but listen carefully to what I say.

    ‘Men of Israel, listen to what I am going to say: Jesus the Nazarene was a man commended to you by God by the miracles and portents and signs that God worked through him when he was among you, as you know. This man, who was put into your power by the deliberate intention and foreknowledge of God, you took and had crucified and killed by men outside the Law. But God raised him to life, freeing him from the pangs of Hades; for it was impossible for him to be held in its power since, as David says of him: 

    I kept the Lord before my sight always, 
    for with him at my right hand 
        nothing can shake me. 
    So my heart rejoiced 
    my tongue delighted; 
    my body, too, will rest secure, 
    for you will not abandon me to Hades 
    or allow your holy one to see corruption. 
    You have taught me the way of life, 
    you will fill me with joy in your presence.

                R. God is teaching us, our whole
                life in the Scriptures, in the
                Mass – we can identify with
                the men on the way to Emmaus.
                We may be blind-sided and
                not recognize God's teachers
                given to us. But we receive
                the Eucharist and we know Him –
                Jesus comes to us in the Eucharist –
                Jesus gives us the Mass and the
                priest.

                Jesus: Open your eyes Jerusalem,
                I feed you with the best of wheat,
                I give you Myself – I give you
                My Word, I feed you with
                the Bread of Life.

                    You must want to change
                and put on Christ. You
                must pray for grace to want
                to die to your dysfunctional,
                selfish ways and to follow
                Me. I paid such a price for you
                to see My love –

                Why do you walk blind-sided
                with your dysfunction – you
                know you are not following
                Me –

                Bend your stubborn heart and
                    will –

                Some are condemning themselves –

                I have called you to be My
                    Servants and spread these
                    messages –

                You say "no" to Me and
                    hold onto your trash –

                Let go of your stubborn ways,
                    your masks you wear,
                    you are miserable inside
                    and dark.

                Be people of the light –
                    resurrection people!!

                Pray for grace to be transformed
                    to hearts of love –

                Consecrate your heart to My Heart
                    and the Heart of My Mother.

                Spread this word, please,
                    I am calling you –
                    I implore you to do
                    God's will – quit
                    being so stubborn.

                    Spread My teachings – bear
                witness to Me – don't walk
                around caved-in and glum –
                the joy of the resurrection can
                be your joy – Rejoice and be glad!
                Suffer in joy for Me and this
                Mission. Be steadfast and
                alive working for Me –

Acts 5: 27-32, 40-41

When they had brought them in to face the Sanhedrin, the high priest demanded an explanation. ‘We gave you a strong warning’, he said, ‘not to preach in this name, and what have you done? You have filled Jerusalem with your teaching, and seem determined to fix the guilt for this man’s death on us.’ In reply Peter and the apostles said, ‘Obedience to God comes before obedience to men;  it was the God of our ancestors who raised up Jesus, whom you executed by hanging on a tree. By his own right hand God has now raised him up to be leader and Saviour, to give repentance and forgiveness of sins through him to Israel. We are witnesses to this, we and the Holy Spirit whom God has given to those who obey him.’
The Sanhedrin warned them not to speak in the name of Jesus and released them. And so they left the presence of the Sanhedrin, glad to have had the honour of suffering humiliation for the sake of the name

Revelation 5: 11-14

In my vision, I heard the sound of an immense number of angels gathered round the throne and the living creatures and the elders; there were ten thousand times ten thousand of them and thousands upon thousands, loudly chanting:

Worthy is the Lamb that was sacrificed to receive power, riches, wisdom, strength, honour, glory and blessing.

Then I heard all the living things in creation-everything that lives in heaven, and on earth, and under the earth, and in the sea, crying:

To the One seated on the throne and to the Lamb, be all praise, honour, glory and power, for ever and ever.

And the four living creatures said, 'Amen'; and the elders prostrated themselves to worship.

                R. Jesus tells us He is the Good Shepherd
                that laid down His life for His
                sheep. We don't want to be like
                the Prodigal Son – We are like
                the first Apostles – fishermen
                trying to catch souls so they
                will pray the prayers Jesus
                give Fr. Carter and live united to
                the Mass all day –

                    Resurrection People –

                    Full of joy –

                    Alive in joy –

                The Fourth Sunday after Easter
                    is Good Shepherd Sunday –

                At the beginning of every Priestly Newsletter –
                    Jesus told Fr. Carter to put this scripture.

John 10: 11-15

I am the good shepherd:
the good shepherd lays down his life
   for his sheep.
The hired man,
   since he is not the shepherd
and the sheep do not belong to him,
abandons the sheep
as soon as he sees a wolf coming,
   and runs away,
and then the wolf attacks
   and scatters the sheep;
he runs away
   because he is only a hired man
and has no concern for the sheep.
I am the good shepherd;
I know my own
and my own know me,
just as the Father knows me
and I know the Father;
and I lay down my life for my sheep.

                Sing: Valleys of Green
 

1 Peter 2: 20-25

but what glory is there in putting up with a beating after you have done something wrong? The merit in the sight of God is in putting up with it patiently when you are punished for doing your duty.

    This, in fact, is what you were called to do, because Christ suffered for you and left an example for you to follow in his steps. He had done nothing wrong, and had spoken no deceit. He was insulted and did not retaliate with insults; when he was suffering he made no threats but put his trust in the upright judge. He was bearing our sins in his own body on the cross, so that we might die to our sins and live for uprightness; through his bruises you have been healed. You had gone astray like sheep but now you have returned to the shepherd and guardian of your souls.

                R. The Apostles healed in the name
                    of Jesus. We must realize
                    we do this work in the name
                    of Jesus and He is Almighty and
                    it is an honor for Him to use us.
                    Let go and Let God –

                Pray for the grace to be transformed!

                We are God's children – God loves
                    us and wants to use us and
                    work in us.
 

John 10: 14

I am the good shepherd;
I know my own
and my own know me,

                R. The Good Shepherd shows
                    courage, fearlessness and
                    love for the flock –

                See Jesus how He suffered
                    in His bitter passion
                    in love for us – He truly
                    laid down His life for us the
                    flock.

                We are to be followers of Jesus!
                We are the people of God –
                We are the sheep of His flock!
                We follow Jesus

                We are to show love to each other –
                Christ came and showed us
                    how He loved us –

                Christ's message is love.

                The new Church grew because
                    there was unity and love
                    rooted in Christ and they
                    followed Jesus' example.

                They were men for others – going out
                    to help men to know Jesus
                    and His ways.

                We cannot do religious work
                    and reject following Jesus –
                    and reject loving –
                    and reject the will of God the Father.
 

                R. This is one of Fr. Joe's favorite Gospels –
                    He uses it at funerals –

                Jesus was going to Ascend into
                    heaven and leave the Apostles –
                    He was preparing them for this.

                    The Church was growing. Paul
                was newly converted, but we see
                his conversion and realize all that
                one man could do with God's Might –
                Look at all the places Paul
                took the Gospel and all he
                wrote – he once persecuted the
                Church!
 

John 15: 4-5

Remain in me, as I in you.
As a branch cannot bear fruit all by itself,
unless it remains part of the vine,
neither can you unless you remain in me.
I am the vine,
you are the branches.
Whoever remains in me, with me in him,
bears fruit in plenty;
for cut off from me you can do nothing.

                R. Jesus told us – He is the vine
                    and we are the branches –
                    we must remain in Him –

                Sing: We Have Been Told

                We see the men who helped Paul –
                Barnabas etc. to spread the
                Good News of the Gospel.
                Jesus tells us to be servants
                and to help others. Selfishness
                is not the message of the Gospel –
                Selfishness makes things dwindle
                and die!

I am the vine,
you are the branches.
Whoever remains in me, with me in him,
bears fruit in plenty;

                R. We must love – we see
                everything is based on
                Christian love – We must
                    love to grow –

                    We see the Apostles and Disciples
                spread the Church. Jesus told us
                to spread these prayers and begin
                prayer chapters praying for the
                priests, the Church and the world –
                all over the world –

                    God gave us China and the
                Virgin Mary Building to spread this
                Ministry, this message, the
                Blue Books.

John 14: 23-29

Jesus replied:

Anyone who loves me will keep my word,
and my Father will love him, 
and we shall come to him
and make a home in him.
Anyone who does not love me
    does not keep my words.
And the word that you hear
     is not my own:
it is the word of the Father who sent me.
I have said these things to you
while still with you;
but the Paraclete, the Holy Spirit,
whom the Father will send in my name,
will teach you everything
and remind you of all I have said to you.
Peace I bequeath to you, 
my own peace I give you, 
a peace which the world cannot give, 
    this is my gift to you. 
Do not let your hearts be troubled 
    or afraid. 
You heard me say: 
I am going away and shall return. 
If you loved me you would be glad 
    that I am going to the Father, 
for the Father is greater than I. 
I have told you this now, 
    before it happens, 
so that when it does happen 
    you may believe. 

1 John 4: 7-10

My dear friends,
let us love one another,
since love is from God
and everyone who loves
    is a child of God and knows God.
Whoever fails to love does not know God,
because God is love.
This is the revelation
   of God’s love for us,
that God sent his only Son into the world
that we might have life through him.
Love consists in this:
it is not we who loved God,
but God loved us and sent his Son
to expiate our sins.

Ascension Thursday May 21, 1998

Jesus:  (with great emotion)  COME OUT OF YOUR TOMBS, COME OUT I CALL YOU!!!!  I have imparted to you knowledge of myself, transforming your heart and soul to be more likened to mine.

I give you messages after the reception of the Eucharist for it is then I am most one with you. Put aside the thoughts of burgers and what have you in your minds and listen to Me you earthly beings.

Come out of your tombs, come out I call to you who slumber and sleep and do not hear the voice of the Mighty One. Your are like the dead that need to be raised. A trumpet horn blaring would not waken a man who is blind from birth. Only the Lord will unlock the minds of the senseless men, so foolish, but oh how I do indeed love them so.

Come out I tell you, I call you, in your sleepy state with scales in your eyes you do not see. If these scales were removed and a fresh lense graphed on the already existing eye, the men may see then clearly that I speak in these messages to bring about the Reign of My Heart and the triumph of the wailing woman's Heart on the earth.

I came, I gave the gifts and the world slept. My little ones, the apostles slept in the garden when my hour was at hand.

Oh my shanty little town, you are stuck indeed, in your ways. You walk the streets as blindmen and I shout to you.

My earth, come out of your tombs, come out and live a life rooted deeply in My Heart.

R. I was in the cage, it was a prison held on all sides by bars, I cried, I screamed, I felt no way to escape and low and behold I turned and where I had thought I was totally enclosed, a whole wall was not even there and I gaily walked into the free night and the sun followed me as I walked.

Jesus: Your earth is enclosed in a wall of their own making. They have put up walls to enclose themselves. They have traveled around in their little boxes and spit at the freedom that I wished to give them.

Freedom is in living according to God's will. Freedom is in Me.

Talk of chains, for you have some. You have bars and are enclosed in your stone or brick houses. A mighty fortress is your dwelling, you think. A mighty fortress is in the walls of My Heart. I am the gateway that leads to freedom. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Holy One of the Virgin Israel. I am the gateway to heaven. I am God!

R. As I unite with Him in the most intimate experiences in the Eucharist, I become one in His desires and what He wants, I become more as He is. He is the life, He is the resurrection, He is God.

I become more in Him, His desires are my desires, the Father's Plan is imprinted in my soul during the Mass and the reception of the Eucharist and before the tabernacle. I am transformed immensely in those moments after Communion to being alive in Him.

God the Father: I am God, you are man, I have given My Son Jesus to you to unite your soul to Me. I am the Father, He is the First Born from the dead. Life will abound in heaven and on earth.

God has visited His people and now He Reigns. He has ransomed them with the Blood of the Lamb.

R. Some time between Ascension Thursday, May 21, 1998 and Pentecost, May 31, 1998.

I saw a vision of an open door, the light within it resembled the light of the vision of March 26, 1996 that can be found in the Apostles Manual (p. 34-36).

The open door was glistening with this reflective golden color mirror-like light. I cannot describe, as I could not describe concerning the 3 main visions, the first being March 26, 1996.

The closest light I can describe to this is the sun reflecting on the water at Tom's Farm but this too leaves an emptiness to its description.

There was a little white sheep at the bottom of the open, glistening door and the little sheep hobbled over a small threshold and went in.

The door was rounded on the top, no corners, like a semi-circle on the top, and the wall surrounding this door was black. The light I describe was within this door and peered out to me in the vision.

I heard our Lord over and over again cry out during this period, "Come out of your tombs, dead, dead, dead, you are dead."

I heard the words similar to the message of May 21, 1998.

I was walled in on all sides – BARS – a prison of my own making. I turned and there was a wall missing and I gaily walked into the free night and the sun followed me as I walked.

I hear Jesus speak: "I am the gateway that leads to freedom."

I know the sea of glass from the vision of March 26, 1996. I know the open door from the vision.

I know the Power, I know the Intimate Burning Heart of Jesus in the Mass.

Jesus: (Ascension Day May 21, 1998)

Your earth is enclosed in a wall of their own making. They have put up walls to enclose themselves. They have traveled around in their little boxes and spit at the freedom that I wish to give them.

Freedom is in living according to God's will, Freedom is in Me.

Talk of chains, for you have some. Your have bars and are enclosed in your stone or brick houses. A mighty fortress is your dwelling, you think. A mighty fortress is in the walls of My Heart.

I am the gateway that leads to Freedom. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the Holy One of the Virgin Israel. I am the gateway to heaven. I am God.

Come out of your tombs, I am alive, I am treated as a dead object.

Sing a new song, the dead shall be raised.

They conquered the devil with the Blood of the Lamb.

Pray to the Holy Spirit to come mightily on you.
