Isaiah 30: 19-26:
Yes, people of Zion living
in Jerusalem,
you will weep no more.
He will be gracious to you when your cry for help rings out;
as soon as he hears it, he will answer you.
When the Lord has given you the bread of suffering
and the water of distress,
he who is your teacher will hide no longer,
and you will see your teacher with your own eyes.
Your ears will hear these words behind you,
'This is the way, keep to it,' whether you turn to right or left.
You will hold unclean the silver platting of your idols
and gold plating of your images.
You will throw them away like the polluted things they are,
shouting after them, 'Good riddance!'
He will send rain for the seed you sow in the ground,
and the bread that the ground provides will be rich and nourishing.
That day, your cattle will graze in wide pastures.
Oxen and donkeys that work the land
will eat for fodder wild sorrel,
spread by the shovel-load and fork-load.
On every lofty mountain, on every high hill
there will be streams and water-courses, on the day of the great
slaughter
when the strongholds fall.
Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself will be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-
on the day Yahweh dresses his people's wound
and heals the scars of the blows have received."
Isaiah 40:1-8:
'Console my people,
console them,'
says your God.
'Speak to the heart of Jerusalem
and cry to her
that her period of service is ended,
that her guilt has been atoned for,
that, from the hand of Yahweh, she has received
double punishment for all her sins.'
A voice cries, 'Prepare in the desert
a way for Yahweh.
Make a straight highway for our God
across the wastelands.
Let every valley be filled in,
every mountain and hill be leveled,
every cliff become a plateau,
every escarpment a plain;
then the glory of Yahweh will be revealed
and all humanity will see it together,
for the mouth of Yahweh has spoken.'
A voice said, 'Cry aloud!' and I said, 'What shall I cry?'
-'All humanity is grass
and all its beauty like the wild flower's.
The grass withers, the flower fades
when the breath of Yahweh blows on them.
(The grass is surely the people.)
The grass withers, the flower fades,
but the word of our God remains for ever.'
Song: A Voice Cries Out in the
Wilderness
R. Adam and Eve are given great
gifts and insights into God. They sin, the light of knowing God is
dimmed because of their sin. They do not know God as they did before
the sin.
Christ comes, He is the Light of the World. He dies,
He gives Himself. He shares His life with us through sanctifying
grace.
Through Baptism we receive this sharing in His
divine life. The more He shares His life, the more we are saturated
with His life, the more we know Him. He reveals Himself to us--we
see the light.
The Kingdom of God is at hand. It is all here: the
Mass, the Eucharist, God giving Himself.
To partake more in His life we must give ourselves
to Him.
Mary appears to Bernadette. She tells her she is the
"Immaculate Conception." We are sinners, but through Mary, the pure
and sinless one, we can unite deeply in Him.
We are in darkness in varying degrees. The more we
are saturated with His life, the more we see.
The reign of God is at hand. Since He came to the
earth, everything is in place to see the light.
God is giving to us great graces to see the light
now. He is lifting the veil.
There will be the era of peace.
Isaiah 30:26:
"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself will be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."
We see the darkness. As at night, we do not see the
colorful leaves, they are there, we do not see them.
In the morning light, we see the glory of the
beautiful day, the colorful leaves.
As the light steals across the sky, we see more and
more. As the sun gradually comes up, we see more clearly the beauty
of the leaves.
At first, our vision is not so clear because the
light does not show in its deepest intensity. As the sun comes up we
see more and more vividly until finally we see clearly the beauty of
the colorful leaves.
Isaiah 30:26:
"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself will be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."
In a message to Fr. Carter on July 31, 1994, Jesus
has promised us: "I will give great graces to the members of
Shepherds of Christ Associates. I will call them to be deeply united
to My Heart and to Mary's heart as I lead them ever closer to My
Father in the Holy Spirit."
As stated above, the more we are saturated with his
life, the more we are one in Him, the more clearly we see. It is in
this union, in the depth of His Heart, that we receive such life,
that we know Him with great clarity, that we are given this vision
of God.
It is not with "eyes" that we see, but the
illumination is in the knowing power that He gives to us. He reveals
insights into the divine mysteries. We share most intimately with
Him when we are one with Him in the Mass and after Communion. These
are treasured moments in which He gives us a special sharing to know
Him, our Divine Lover.
We see clearly when our hearts are hearts of love.
We see vividly when our hearts are filled with love and peace. We
were created to love, to love God and love each other.
Adam and Eve sinned. They lost the great gift given
to them. The light of knowing God was dimmed because of their sin.
Christ comes into the world. He is the Word. He is
the light of the world. He comes to save man from his sin. He comes
in the womb of the Virgin Mary. Mary is the pure and sinless one.
Jesus comes to pay the price for the sin of Adam and for our sins.
We are all tainted by this sin of our first father and mother. Mary
is the Immaculate and pure one, the highest human person. Divinity
unites with humanity in the womb of Mary. They are one. Jesus is
carried within the body of His mother. Such unity from the
beginning, for His life is formed within her body. Is it surprising
to us, then, if Christ comes within the womb of the Virgin Mary,
that we too must go through Mary to unite to Him? Where is the pride
in the hearts of men that think they do not have to go through their
Mother Mary? If Christ comes in the womb of Mary to pay the price
for man's sins, and we are tainted by the sin, in order to unite to
the Almighty God who is all holy, we must go through the pure and
sinless one.
Adam and Eve sinned. The Father sends His Son into
the world to pay the price for man's sins. Jesus is the New Adam;
Mary is the New Eve. Man continues to sin, greatly displeasing God.
The Father allows Mary to appear to Bernadette at Lourdes as the
Immaculate Conception, as having been conceived without original
sin. The Father then allows Mary to appear to the children of Fatima
as the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
We are sinners, we cannot unite closely to Him
unless we go through Mary.
Mary is the pure and sinless one. We can unite
deeply to Him. We are in darkness in varying degrees. The more we
are saturated with His life, the more we see.
The reign of God is at hand. He came to the earth,
He died, He rose on the third day. He gave to the Apostles the power
to change bread and wine into His Body and Blood. He gave to them
the power to forgive sins. He established His Church pouring forth
from His pierced side. We do not see the great gifts that He has
given to us. He is giving to us great insights into these gifts. God
is giving to us great graces to see the light now. He is lifting the
veil.
There will be an era of peace and all will see with
such light as Isaiah speaks of in chapter 30, verse 26:
"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself will be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."
Man sinned. Jesus came to redeem us. Man is still so
sinful. Mary appears at Fatima. She tells us that we are offending
God, that we must make reparation to her heart and the heart of her
Son.
She gives us the peace plan for the world. She tells
us that the Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and her Immaculate
Heart will triumph but we must do what she says. The Church has
approved Fatima. The devil has blocked the message. How can we
disobey our Mother? How can we ignore her? Mary appeared at Fatima
and was ignored. Mary appeared to me almost daily for 14 months--she
does not appear as she once did. Jesus has told me that He will
handle these messages, that He is in charge, that the plan of the
Father will unfold despite any person's willfulness.
In August 1996, Mary spoke in the rosary: she said
she could not hold back the hand of her Son any longer. On the 5th
of this month, instead of Mary appearing as she had in the past,
Jesus appeared alive on the crucifix with His mouth moving for
twenty minutes. We are not listening to Mary or to Jesus. Man has
sinned. Jesus came to redeem us. Mary tells us what we must do. Men
are disobedient. They disobeyed their Mother. They do not do what
she told them what they must do at Fatima. When hearts are
consecrated to Jesus and Mary they become holy hearts, deeply one
with God. The reign of the Sacred Heart is at hand for He has given
to us abundant grace that we are seeing with such clarity this
vision of God. He has imparted to us understanding into His divine
mysteries.
The more we focus on what Jesus and Mary have told
us, the more we will have peace. He is angered by the willfulness of
man. He will get their attention. We are spreading the good news
when we spread the consecration.
We must heed the words of our Mother. She will not
go away because of willful men. We have angered God more by ignoring
her. There is only one way: it is the plan that Mary has given to us
at Fatima. He is lifting the veil for those whose hearts are
consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary.
Many in the Shepherds of Christ Movement are
fervently loving Him. In the Shepherds of Christ Movement, as the
apostles spread the consecration to the Church, the family, and the
school, the fire of His love will cover the earth and it will be
lighted with this love coming from the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The
Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary
will triumph.
We, in the Shepherds of Christ Movement, are
spreading the fire of His love across the earth through the
consecration.
The hearts of men will turn from their sick and
desolate ways to hearts gentle as a little lamb. There will be one
flock and one Shepherd and His staff will rule over all. Hearts
consecrated to Their Hearts will lead the light across the earth.
This light will be a light of intense brightness, brighter and
hotter than any light from a flame. It will be the fire of God's
love. The Spirit will move in all hearts consecrated to His Heart,
and we will know how fire truly spreads, for the love of God is a
fire, it is vibrant, it is encompassing, it is smoldering, burning
deep within and speedily spreading on the outside. No fires on this
earth can ever describe the burning embers that burn from the Sacred
Heart of Jesus. No fire burns like the fires coming from His Heart
and hearts filled with the love from the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
On October 13, 1917 Our Lady gave to Lucia and
70,000 spellbound people, a great vision: the sun spun in the sky,
casting off great lights. This happened three times in about 12
minutes. As quoted from Our Lady of Fatima's Peace Plan from
Heaven:
It seemed that the whole
world was on fire with the sun spinning at a greater speed each
time. Then a gasp of terror rose from the crowd for the sun seemed
to tear itself from the heavens and come crashing down upon the
horrified multitudes...just when it seemed that the ball of fire
would fall upon and destroy them, the miracle ceased, and the sun
resumed its normal place in the sky, shining forth as peacefully as
ever.
Mary gave this tremendous sign at Fatima and people
did not listen. The events that followed were as she had predicted
since we disobeyed her. There was a brutal war, WWII. Mary appeared
to me almost daily - very few have listened. She told me over and
over again of the souls going to hell. She told me in August she
could not hold back the hand of her Son anymore. Adam and Eve
sinned. God, the Father, sent His Son. Man continues to sin--the
Father sends Mary but she is ignored!
On July 2, 1996, my son, Joseph, was taking pictures
of all of the Shepherds of Christ members at Tom Arlinghaus' farm.
He took one picture of each person. Jesus told me to tell him to
take two pictures of Fr. Carter. The first picture was a normal
picture. The second picture was of Fr. Carter covered with a pillar
of light.
In front of a statue of Our Sorrowful Mother, Mary
was alive in the statue.
Jesus: "Peace will bound when
nations, churches, families, and individuals are consecrated to the
Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The
Shepherds of Christ Movement...is a pillar of light in the
darkness."
R. We must encourage all to
consecrate their hearts to the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the
Sacred Heart of Jesus and to join the Shepherds of Christ chapters,
and the Apostles of the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus Movement, to pray
for our Church and our world.
Jesus: This is My Movement for
renewal of the Church and the world, based in consecration, joining
your every act to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, praying the
rosary, and making reparation to Our Hearts, especially on first
Fridays and first Saturday. It is through your prayers and
sacrifices many souls will be saved. Grace will flow from those
whose hearts are consecrated to Our Hearts and the fire of My love
will light up this darkened world.
R. Many are living in darkness
because they are not obeying Our Lady. The people will see the light
when they obey her and consecrate their hearts to her heart and the
Heart of Jesus.
To have this intense union with Jesus, with God, we
must give ourselves to Our Lady. It is there in the intimacy with
Him that we are saturated with His life and that He reveals to us
great lights, great insights into His divine mysteries. Yes, indeed,
the light will steel across the earth and the hearts of men will be
hearts filled with His love. They will know their God with great
light imparted to them by the Holy Spirit given to them because of
the deep union that they have with Jesus. The reign of the Sacred
Heart is at hand. He is giving to us these great lights at this time
for He has lifted the veil and we see many things and the light
steals across the sky and we see with clear vision.
Isaiah 30: 26:
"Then moonlight will be bright as sunlight
and sunlight itself will be seven times brighter
-like the light of seven days in one-..."
Isaiah 30: 25:
"On every lofty mountain, on every high hill
there will be streams and water-courses, on the day of the great
slaughter
when the strongholds fall."
Truly His Heart is the fountain of divine life. It
flows through the Church, through the hands of His holy priests.
When priests are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and
celebrating the Mass, and administering the sacraments, an immense
amount of His grace will be outpoured on the earth.
A people in darkness have seen a great light. Jesus,
Jesus, Jesus, the Light of the World!
Our Father...thy Kingdom come, Thy will be done on
earth as it is in heaven. We will all love as the Father intends,
for now He looks to the earth and He sees it covered with darkness.
As hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, the earth
will be covered with His light.
Revelation 12:1-12:
Now a
great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing
on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. She was
pregnant, and in labor, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth.
Then a second sign appeared in the sky: there was a huge red dragon
with seven heads and ten horns, and each of the seven heads crowned
with a coronet. Its tail swept a third of the stars from the sky and
hurled them to the ground, and the dragon stopped in front of the
woman as she was at the point of giving birth, so that he could eat
the child as soon as it was born. The woman was delivered of a boy,
the Son who was to rule all the nations with an iron scepter, and
the child was taken straight up to God and to his throne, while the
woman escaped into the desert, where God had prepared a place for
her to be looked after for twelve hundred and sixty days.
And
now war broke out in heaven, when Michael with his angels attacked
the dragon. The dragon fought back with his angels, but they were
defeated and driven out of heaven. The great dragon, the primeval
serpent, known as the devil or Satan, who had led all the world
astray, was hurled down to the earth and his angels were hurled down
with him. Then I heard a voice shout from heaven, 'Salvation and
power and empire for ever have been won by our God, and all
authority for his Christ, now that the accuser, who accused our
brothers day and night before our God, has been brought down. They
have triumphed over him by the blood of the lamb and by the word to
which they bore witness, because even in the face of death they did
not cling to life. So let the heavens rejoice and all who live
there; but for you, earth and sea, disaster is coming-because the
devil has gone down to you in a rage, knowing that he has little
time left.'
We are in her spiritual womb (heart). She is
pregnant, bringing forth her children of light. As we go to her
heart, she crushes the head of the serpent. Some of the brightest
stars that will light up the earth are in the Shepherds of Christ
Movement. We are the children of light. We are being sent forth as
she brings us forth her children of light to stamp out the darkness.
We must give ourselves to Mary.
of celestial light. I went to Communion, had the presence of God, wanted
to cry so hard from the awe of it all. I was not feeling good and He
wrapped me as only He can do in His heavenly embrace. My soul sang out
and the vision began. My eyes now are still seeing with this effect. He,
as it were, lifts up the hard, defined lines and I see with a celestial
aura. This is what I see when I see a vision. The rocks in the
grotto Mary has appeared in glisten and they are sparkling. LINES are
not defined, instead they are adorned in light.
