September 5, 1997

Pittsburgh, PA Rosary

Jesus: My beloved ones, I have called you to this rosary that you will become more intimately united to Me for I give to you My Sacred Heart My specially chosen ones.

Song: Here I Am Lord

Jesus: And I stand by your bed at night and I am with you at every single second, at every moment, no matter where you are I speak to you and I tell you to not be afraid, for I am with you guarding you and watching you, caring for every breath that you take. I am Jesus, I am the Son of God and I have called you, My shepherds, to go into this world and to spread My love to the far corners. Do not be discouraged by the events at hand. Never are you to feel discouraged but encouraged for I have called you and you are My apostles that will lead the light across the darkened land. I am with you at every moment of the day. Here I am with you today.

Song: One Bread One Body

Jesus: I have called you, My beloved ones, that you may be one, that you will lead this world and it will be one. And I have united you in the deepest oneness with each other and given you an abundant sharing of My love to share with one another, that this world will know unity through you. I have molded you, My special shepherds, into soldiers of love, soldiers that will be one living according to the Father’s Will, according to the Father’s Plan, leading the flock into greater oneness through the guidance of Fr. Carter. I have asked you here tonight to tell you of My Plan for each one of you, for you have been called by Me on this special night, the 5th of September, 1997.

R. Mary appeared almost everyday from July 5th of 1994 to September 5, 1995 at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center in the Sorrowful Mother statue. She said she appeared as Our Lady of Light. She was surrounded by a celestial mist. On this September 5th, 1997, two years later we come at the request of Our Lady to pray this rosary. It is a great gift given by Our Lady of Light, Our Lady in the Americas, Our Lady of Fatima. We have been called as apostles in order to help lead this world into consecration, into oneness in which there will be one flock and one shepherd. And let us, with all our hearts, thank the Almighty God for the great gifts that They have given to us and ask Mary please to help us to honor her in a special way in this rosary. For Mary is blasphemed by many of her beloved children, in her motherhood and in her virginity and in her Immaculate Conception. And children are being taught this day to dishonor their Mother, the Mother that will take them into deeper spiritual relationship with God. Mary is the Mother most pure. Mary is the singular vessel of devotion that will lead the souls into this immense union with God. There is no other way and this is the reason that Christ came into this world in the Virgin Mary. Let us honor her for she has greatly given us these gifts and graced us with her presence in a special way on the 5th of every month. It was a great honor that Mary appeared for two years and four months on the 5th of the month. And it was a great sign that Jesus appeared on the cross on December 5th, 1996, dead on the cross at the point of death, after all these daily apparitions of Mary. When Jesus appeared on the cross December 5, 1996, His mouth was moving because Jesus said later that night in a rosary of the 5th, “no one was listening.” This was 12 days before Mary appeared at Clearwater December 17, 1996. And it is a great gift that Christ appeared a second time on the cross, August 20th of 1997, glorified and glistening in light and that we heard the Father speak and He said, “This is My Beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased. Listen to Him.” The gifts are given but this world is slumbering and asleep and they are not aware that God has contacted the earth. And they will feel the vibrations of the chastisement when He shakes them in their seats for they have ignored God. And with all of our attempts to alert this world of the warnings, we have been blocked endlessly. But this does not change the intention of the Father and His Will for us. For the blocks were put there by men. But the messages were given by God that man would be warned and would change his ways. And so when the Father speaks that He will lessen the chastisements and or avert them if we start the prayer chapters, we must realize the urgency of this situation and take this mission with greatest seriousness. For God the Father speaks to be heard and He says as He appears, “This is My Beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased. Listen to Him.”

Sorrowful Mysteries

The Agony in the Garden

l. R. And the Father spoke in the message on January 11th and He said that He is speaking through His Son, Jesus, in these messages revealing His Plan. And He called His Son, God-Made-Man, for it is through Jesus that the Father reveals Himself and it is a great honor indeed that He gives to us these revelations. He has called us. He has appeared, Our Beloved Jesus, on the cross adorned in light. The victory is in the priests’ hearts that are being changed through the Priestly Newsletter and through our prayers. Sufferings or not, the victory is in what is happening for the renewal of the Church and the world. It is not in how we suffer, how we are stepped on, how we are ignored. It is in what is happening in the world as these revelations from the Almighty God are circulated and priests’ hearts are turned to consecrated hearts, consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, celebrating the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.

2. R. And so this morning, I wrote this: Today I understood the Mass most greatly for we were joined, a few of us, with Fr. Carter at Mass. There may have been ten of us in the chapel of the Monastery in Pittsburgh. I experienced for the first time the beauty of being consecrated with the priest and with the people that I love. I experienced oneness in Him bound together by this great thread of love between each one of us and the priest. And I hear Mary speak and she says: “I stood beneath the cross of my Son and I cried.” And I heard her speak and say this, this morning. “I stood beneath the cross of my Son and I cried.” At this monastery, this monastery is the example of how Mass will be celebrated in the future. And it is greatly through what we do, although we are pressed on, although we are tired and withered, it is in what we do that majorly the Reign of the Sacred Heart will take place and that priests with consecrated hands, consecrated in their hearts to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will celebrate the Mass. And there will be oneness in this Mass. And so Jesus knelt in the garden and He sweat blood for the souls for all of us — for the souls walking in darkness. Today Jesus sweat blood in the garden. Today many treat the Blessed Sacrament with such indifference and with such neglect. And so in the garden He sweat blood. Oh Jesus, Jesus, what do we do to shake this earth, to tell them of Your bountiful love for them? For they do not hear and they do not listen. And we have learned that it is only in Your grace that this world will be changed. We are Your instruments and we long to be one in You that You will operate through us. But He has taught us that it is not in the busyness, it is not in what we do alone, but it is what He does through us in the grace He outpours. We need grace from God to accomplish this work - pray with all your hearts and cooperate with the grace.

3. R. We pray the Our Father, we pray for the Kingdom, the power and the glory are Yours. This is the begging for the Reign of the Sacred Heart. Let us pray the Our Father, please. We beg in the Our Father for the Reign of the Sacred Heart. This is what we pray when we pray the Our Father. Our Father who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name. And we pray for the Kingdom, thy Kingdom come, thy Will be done. How will Thy Kingdom come? It will come by Thy Will being done on earth as it is in Heaven. And now on this earth there is such willfulness. And this is what the consecration does, it leads men into one mind and one heart. And we walk around weary and we wonder. But it is all there in the Mass and so much more that we have not even comprehended or has been brought to light to us. The beauty of the Mass is unveiled more and more each and every day. And so we pray, Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed be thy name, asking for thy Kingdom to come on earth as it is in Heaven according to the Father’s Will. And then we say, give us this day our daily bread. And how will there be oneness? The greatest oneness is achieved when men go to Mass and go to the Eucharist. But how will it be achieved? Brothers, if there is any anger or division in your heart towards any man, it blocks the unity between you and God. And so then in the Our Father we say, give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses. A cleansing of ourselves so that we will be one at the reception of the Eucharist. For if I have anger in my heart towards one person, I do not unite in deep oneness with Jesus. And so we say, forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us. I see now how the Mass flows in great unity. This is not disconnected. It is connected to be one with each other with Him, as we are to be one body in the Eucharist. We cannot have division in our hearts with anybody. The Our Father is so important in the Mass where we beg the Father to help us to bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart. How will this be done? It will be done by doing the Father’s Will on earth as it is in Heaven. It will come when we are all doing His Will on earth as they are in Heaven. It is the willfulness of the earth, the division that is in men’s hearts that is stopping the Heart of Jesus from Reigning in men’s hearts. So we pray, give us this day our daily bread. Let us be one in this. Forgive us our trespasses. Help us not to be divided with others, to forgive them so that when we go to this Eucharist (this morning, right here, there will be this immense oneness between us in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.) And so we pray, deliver us from every evil. Why? That we will be one in this Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. And grant us peace in your mercy. Keep us free from sin. Why? Because sin keeps us from oneness. And protect us from all anxiety as we wait in joyful hope for the coming of Our Savior. All of this is for thy Kingdom come. Thy Kingdom come will come when men are realizing that God is truly present in the Holy Eucharist, when thy Will is done on earth as it is in Heaven, when we are forgiving one another for our trespasses, when we are going to the Eucharist and receiving Him in oneness with each other. We want His will. For it is not in Sue’s will or Joe’s will or Kathy’s will. We will be one in the Father’s will.

4. R. We are praying for the Reign of the Sacred Heart to come in our hearts. What is in the hearts of men? Look at the Mass. Here it is Sunday and you are at Mass and you look across the pew and there are men there. Are you in one mind and one heart? If you are so immensely united to God in your heart and you turn to your brother to shake his hand, do you feel connected? It is in consecration that we will be one flock and one shepherd. We must spread this consecration to the Churches and to the priests. This morning is how it will be. And so we see Jesus in the garden with the blood that goes to the ground. And it is because we are blind men and the Kingdom of God will come and He will Reign in the hearts of men when they give their hearts to Jesus. But in order to give yourself to Jesus, we must go through Mary, for Jesus Himself came to this earth in the womb of the Virgin Mary.

5. R. And this is a big connection from the beginning of the Our Father to the part where He says deliver us from every evil to the part where it goes to finally that we respond with open arms we should cry out for the Kingdom, the power and the glory are yours now and forever. And we are hugged and we are in one heart and we come so close to being one. For in this Holy Sacrifice of the Mass we can get such grace to love like Jesus. Our loving and knowing capacity is elevated in baptism. And when we hug one another, when we shake hands with one another, it is Him living in us that is loving our brother and Him living in them that is loving. St. Paul says in Galatians, “It is no longer I who live, but He who lives in Me.” The Scriptures in the Mass are talking about Him, in Mass one in Him, all through the Scriptures, all through the Mass. We are to live in Him. Be one in Him. It is the lip service love that is so hard to handle. And Christ sweat blood in the garden for men are off for their fancy frills and their days at the park. And Sunday has turned into a day of great pleasure and selling and the Almighty God is forgotten in the hearts of many men.

6. R. And what is the Mass? It is the shout for victory that the Kingdom of God is at hand. And we are to teach the people these things through the teachings that God has given to us. Not to me, not to Fr. Carter, to us. We are the main apostles to help to spread greater fervor and participation in the Mass, and grace is outpoured on the earth at Mass. We say God we want to be one in You. Outpour Your grace. We will be one for we are one body in Him.

7. Song: One Bread One Body

8. R. Many times, when I have done the kiss of peace in Church I have felt so disconnected. A quick nod, a hand up, so, so cold. And it is so difficult many times to feel this connection in the Mass. Today, I was in my heart in the Mass with my Shepherds of Christ brothers I love so dearly. We hugged and were one greater than ever before. For we gave His love to each other right in the Mass. I just said, “I love you”, and it was coming from the love that was inside of me. It was His love, His love in me that was going out to them. And His love in them that was coming back to me. We exchanged His love with each other so deep in our hearts. And then we beg Him for mercy on this world, Lamb of God, I want to get down on the ground and beg Him, please send mercy on this world and on me for the sins that I have committed and the sins of this world. Lamb of God. He was the little lamb taken to the slaughter. Do you see Him in the garden with the blood that comes down His cheeks and He falls to the ground, to the muddy ground. And there it is the Precious Blood of the Almighty God shed for the sins of men. And how do we say, Lamb of God who takes away the sins of the world. They scratch their heads and they look around and the words come out of the mouth with such labor. When God has given His life for men. And this is the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present in the Mass. Half asleep. And where is the answer, my friends? It is in the priests whose hearts are consecrated to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. Grace is outpoured through the hands of the priests to the faithful and they are fed. We love our priests — pray the prayers Jesus gave to pray for them. This is our mission. The world is not doing what God intends them to do. This is why He sends the messages. It is only in consecration that this will happen. How can the priests stand there and teach the people that which he does not know. But God is teaching in the Priestly Newsletter. And so our mission is blocked. But our truth is in the Scriptures and it is in Him. Lamb, Lamb of God, the Son of God took flesh, came to this earth and sacrificed His body to pay for the price of the sins. And do we even say the words with conviction? Are we really begging God to give mercy to us? Or are we thinking that we do not even need His mercy? We are thinking about the food that we will have afterwards or the Sunday fun. And God gives to us Himself as the Lamb, the Lamb of God. And so we should fall on the floor and beg God for mercy. When we have begged Him, when we have asked for forgiveness for our sins, when we tell Him that we are not worthy, and we walk the aisle to the banquet, Jesus gives us Himself in the Holy Eucharist. Jesus is the Bridegroom of our soul. And after all we have done, the Son of God gives us Himself, the bridegroom of our soul.

9. Matthew 22: 1-8

Parable of the wedding feast

Jesus began to speak to them in parables once again, ‘The kingdom of Heaven may be compared to a king who gave a feast for his son’s wedding. He sent his servants to call those who had been invited, but they would not come. Next he sent some more servants with the words, “Tell those who have been invited: Look, my banquet is all prepared, my oxen and fattened cattle have been slaughtered, everything is ready. Come to the wedding.” But they were not interested: one went off to his farm, another to his business, and the rest seized his servants, maltreated them and killed them. The king was furious. He dispatched his troops, destroyed those murderers and burnt their town. Then he said to his servants, “The wedding is ready;

R. The Son of God gives Himself to sinful men and He is ignored and forgotten by some. And do the guests come to the wedding feast? And how are they dressed? Are their souls white and pure? Or do they come with the wrong attire?

Matthew 22: 8-11

“The wedding is ready; but as those who were invited proved to be unworthy, go to the main crossroads and invite everyone you can find to come to the wedding. So these servants went out onto the roads and collected together everyone they could find, bad and good alike; and the wedding hall was filled with guests. When the king came in to look at the guests he noticed one man who was not wearing a wedding garment,

R. And there are so many messages in the Blue Book that says: “how is your soul?” And He talks about being the bridegroom of our souls in the Blue Books and He talks about having a stain on the bride’s dress and how would you come. And when I got these messages I didn’t know what He was really talking about. Read them. December 27, 1993, February 11, 1994. How pure we must be. How a bride wouldn’t come with a big stain on her dress. I didn’t realize that the Scriptures and everything is leading to this. But He said it in there, He said it in the messages. And I told the person He told me to tell it to. Jesus wants this union with each soul as the bridegroom of our soul. And they said, “Ah, no Rita, that’s for you.” In the Bible it talks about this spousal union between the soul and God. And this is how it will be in the Reign of the Sacred Heart. The references to the wedding, the references are in there in the Blue Books. Read those messages where He talks about the purity that He wants from the soul. And they laughed and they laughed on December 29th when He talked about us coming to the tabernacle. Read the beauty of the message. When He says, “I give you Myself and you take Me to the gas pump or to K-mart”. And they laughed and yellowed up the book. God spoke to us and it is the truth. The banquet is prepared. He gives us Himself, the bridegroom of our soul. And the people are off and out the door, pumping gas, with the Son of God within their bodies.

10. R. But when the king came in to meet the guests he saw a man there not dressed in a wedding garment. How is the state of your soul? Is there a big stain on the wedding dress as He said? It was in the February 11th message.

Matthew 22: 12-14

and said to him, “How did you get in here, my friend, without a wedding garment?” And the man was silent. Then the king said to the attendants, “Bind him hand and foot and throw him into the darkness outside, where there will be weeping and grinding of teeth.” For many are invited but not all are chosen.”

 

The Scourging at the Pillar

l. R. And we want the comfort. We want all the things that we want that lead to what? And what of the banquet of the Lord?

2. R. The banquet is prepared, August 21st, the day after Jesus appeared victorious on the cross and the Father spoke. The banquet is prepared and the cup runs over for He has invited the souls to the wedding feast and He is the groom.

Jesus: How is your gown, My beloved soul? For I give Myself to you and I am rejected by the souls. Do you come with your garment pure for the feast? I am Jesus Christ, the Son of God. I give Myself to you. Will you come to the feast and share in the victory for the soul is transformed. It is saturated with My life. I give you My Body and My Blood. You are transformed.

R. I see how the priest takes ordinary bread and wine and it is transformed into the Body and Blood of Jesus. So what makes me think in all my imperfections, He cannot change me with all my imperfections. In the Eucharist He gives me Himself and I am transformed more and more into His image. I receive Jesus and I am changed.

3. R. Jesus cast the man out who came to the wedding banquet and was not dressed properly. Anyone who comes to receive Him must be in the state of grace. They must be baptized and have been accepted by the Church and given the right to receive Him. It is the elect He gives Himself to. We have been called to come to the banquet and receive Him. We must be found worthy.

4. R. And He spoke in an all night message that He gave to me that is in the Apostles Manual. And sometime later, He talked, I believe it was on January 5th and I wrote it in the margin here as He woke me out of bed, I sat on the floor and I wrote this. And I thought I lost it, and I found this the other day. When He gave me another all night message and this is what He said:

January 5, 1997

Jesus: ...Open yourself, Oh Jerusalem, your time is come you will be a light to the people in darkness, many will walk whence you come and the earth will be shakened and the light will come across a dark sky and enlighten their minds.

Oh stiff-necked people, you are so stiff in your ways, let the Spirit envelope you and lead you on your way.

A country of stiffs, a people of planning and prodding, of deliberating and wondering — you lack faith, Jerusalem, you lack faith in God.

Oh walk naked into the cold night, you are cold in your hearts and naked in your clothing — I clothe you with glory, I light your face with light, but you turn your cheeks to the darkness and stay stiff-necked in your hearts. Oh cold and dark hearts, reach for the light that you may know the glory that awaits the sinners and enlightens their minds. end of excerpt

5. Hail Mary

6. R. And so I woke the other night by the sound of my own voice as I was speaking and the word that I spoke was: the word of God is born within us. Jesus is the Word. There is a birth, a bringing forth of His Word living within us.
   

From the Priestly Newsletter Book III by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.

The Holy Spirit And Mary

The late Archbishop Luis M. Martinez of Mexico strikingly speaks of the ongoing cooperation of Mary with the Holy Spirit regarding the reproduction of Jesus within us: “Christian life is the reproduction of Jesus in souls…

“Now, how will this mystical reproduction be brought about in souls? In the same way in which Jesus was brought into the world, for God gives a wonderful mark of unity to all His works. Divine acts have a wealth of variety because they are the work of omnipotence; nevertheless, a most perfect unity always shines forth from them because they are the fruit of wisdom; and this divine contrast of unity and variety stamps the works of God with sublime and unutterable beauty.

“In His miraculous birth, Jesus was the fruit of heaven and earth…The Holy Spirit conveyed the divine fruitfulness of the Father to Mary, and the virginal soil brought forth in an ineffable manner our most loving Savior, the divine Seed, as the prophets called Him…

“That is the way He is reproduced in souls. He is always the fruit of heaven and earth.

“Two artisans must concur in the work that is at once God’s masterpiece and humanity’s supreme product: the Holy Spirit and the most holy Virgin Mary. Two sanctifiers are necessary to souls, the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, for they are the only ones who can reproduce Christ.

“Undoubtedly, the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary sanctify us in different ways. The first is the Sanctifier by essence; because He is God, who is infinite sanctity; because He is the personal Love that completes, so to speak, the sanctity of God, consummating His life and His unity, and it belongs to Him to communicate to souls the mystery of that sanctity. The Virgin Mary, for her part, is the co-operator, the indispensable instrument in and by God’s design. From Mary’s maternal relation to the human body of Christ is derived her relation to His Mystical Body which is being formed through all the centuries until the end of time, when it will be lifted up to the heavens, beautiful, splendid, complete, and glorious. “These two, then, the Holy Spirit and Mary, are the indispensable artificers of Jesus, the indispensable sanctifiers of souls. Any saint in heaven can co-operate in the sanctification of a soul, but his co-operation is not necessary, not profound, not constant: while the co-operation of these two artisans of Jesus of whom we have just been speaking is so necessary that without it souls are not sanctified (and this by the actual design of Providence), and so intimate that it reaches to the very depths of our soul. For the Holy Spirit pours charity into our heart, makes a habitation of our soul, and directs our spiritual life by means of His gifts. The Virgin Mary has the efficacious influence of Mediatrix in the most profound and delicate operations of grace in our souls. And, finally, the action of the Holy Spirit and the co-operation of the most holy Virgin Mary are constant; without them, not one single character of Jesus would be traced on our souls, no virtue grow, no gift be developed, no grace increased, no bond of union with God be strengthened in the rich flowering of the spiritual life.

“Such is the place that the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary have in the order of sanctification. Therefore, Christian piety should put these two artisans of Christ in their true place, making devotion to them something necessary, profound, and constant.” 18

18. Archbishop Luis M. Martinez, The Sanctifier, op. cit. pp. 5-7.

R. The Word is in us. He lives in us. We dwell and live in Him. We hear the Word at Mass. We are united to Jesus in our hearts.

7. Hail Mary
8. Hail Mary

9. John 1: 1-5

In the beginning was the Word:
the Word was with God
and the Word was God.
He was with God in the beginning.
Through him all things came into being,
not one thing came into being
except through him.
What has come into being in him was life,
life that was the light of men;
and light shines in darkness,
and darkness could not overpower it.

10. John 1: 6-11

A man came, sent by God.
His name was John.
He came as a witness,
to bear witness to the light,
so that everyone might believe
through him.
He was not the light,
he was to bear witness to the light.
The Word was the real light
that gives light to everyone;
he was coming into the world.
He was in the world
that had come into being through him,
and the world did not recognise him.
He came to his own
and his own people did not accept him...

 

The Crowning with Thorns

l. R. The consecration will help the Word be born more deeply in our hearts, in the priests’ hearts. And what is happening when the Word of God is spoken? Is it as a two-edged sword that penetrates the heart and the soul?

John 1: 11-12

...He came to his own and his own people did not accept him. But to those who did accept him he gave power to become children of God,
 

2. From Tell My People by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.

The Holy Spirit

Jesus: “My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs this marvel within Mary’s Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My Mother’s Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My people!”

Reflection: The Holy Spirit is given to us to fashion us ever more according to the likeness of Jesus. And the more we are like Jesus, the more Jesus leads us to the Father. Do we, each day, pray to the Holy Spirit to be more open to His transforming influence? Do we strive each day to grow in union with Mary? The greater our union with our Mother, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, the greater is the transforming action of the Holy Spirit within us. end of excerpt

3. Hail Mary
4. Hail Mary

5. Matthew 11: 25

At that time Jesus exclaimed, ‘I bless you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for hiding these things from the learned and the clever and revealing them to little children.

R. Some youth today don’t even know the commandments. Are we teaching them what is important? They know so much about how to tidy up their room, they know so much about washing their hands, they know so much about the purity of the body, but the purity of the soul and the relationship of their soul with God is not even of much importance to many of the parents that are teaching their children.

6. R. Mary appeared as the Sorrowful Mother daily for fourteen months. The prophesy of Simeon says, “this Child is destined for the fall and the rise of many in Israel.” This was Our Lady’s house and in the Big Boom card it said, “This is My Mother’s house, a house divided against itself will fall.”

7. R. Every time Mary appeared while we were meditating on the Finding in the Temple, what ended up happening was I felt as if I had swords inside of my heart. And to say this now, I feel the same horrible pain inside of me. During those two mysteries of the rosary, looking at Mary with the sword in her heart alive at the Holy Spirit Center, few were listening to what she was saying. I felt it as if the inside of my heart was torn in half every time I did the Finding in the Temple. Now I look at the Holy Spirit Center, they ignored Mary’s message. And on the Big Boom card the message said, “This is My Mother’s house. A house divided against itself will fall.” Mary appeared for nine months in the Rosary chapel. Out of the fourteen months that she appeared everyday, she appeared nine months in the Rosary chapel. And then they moved Mary’s statue to the Sorrowful Mother chapel. She appeared another five months in the Sorrowful Mother chapel and it was there greatly that the Shepherds of Christ Movement blossomed and grew. Many times the whole room was filled with people praying fervently in their hearts the prayers that Jesus gave to Fr. Carter to help bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart. The Father was so strong on the anniversary of when the wing fell off, March 22nd, how we must circulate those cards. He was so strong that He wanted this message circulated, “A house divided against itself will fall.” The one corner where the Sorrowful Mother was and where the Shepherds of Christ Movement blossomed before we were asked to leave two more times for a total of three times while Mary appeared and was ignored in her own house daily. I ask you to look at the Holy Spirit Center to see the two wings, to hear the message, “a house divided against itself will fall”, to see the room where Mary appeared in as the Sorrowful Mother for five months when the Movement blossomed and to see that the other end of the building fell off in minutes.

8. R. The Holy Spirit works in the Immaculate Heart of Mary. We are blind men walking in darkness until we dwell there in the heart of Mary. And we look at the prophesy of Simeon which is what Simeon said, “that a sword too will pierce your soul, Oh Mary.” And she appeared to me everyday with a sword in her heart.

9. Luke 2: 22-23, 33-35

Jesus is presented in the Temple

And when the day came for them to be purified in keeping with the Law of Moses, they took him up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord — observing what is written in the Law of the Lord: Every first-born male must be consecrated to the Lord — As the child’s father and mother were wondering at the things that were being said about him, Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, ‘Look, he is destined for the fall and for the rise of many in Israel, destined to be a sign that is opposed— and a sword will pierce your soul too — so that the secret thoughts of many may be laid bare.’

R. Mary appeared to me daily at Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center for 14 months. The children of Light were to come forth majorly from the Holy Spirit Center and they were to carry the light into the darkness and He would Reign majorly on His Throne in the tabernacle. And the message is to bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart in which He would be the King on His Throne in the Churches, these messages were and are being blocked. And so I hear the words of Simeon again. “This child is destined for the fall and the rise of many in Israel.” And He spoke over and over again and said, how the people coming there were bumping into the building. For they did not have love in their hearts and we could not do what the Father had intended us to do, until we turned our hearts to hearts that were in love with God and with each other.

10. R. And so the message says, “the Holy Spirit Center is My Mother’s house. A house divided against itself will fall.” They rejected the sign given.

Luke 2: 34

Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, ‘Look, he is destined for the fall and for the rise of many in Israel, destined to be a sign that is opposed—

R. Mary appeared for five months in the Sorrowful Mother chapel with a sword in her heart. And Simeon says, “A sword too will pierce your soul Oh Mary.”

 

The Carrying of the Cross

l. R. And why is this brought out on this day? Because this day, September 5, 1995 was the close of the daily apparitions of Our Lady as Our Lady of Light at the Holy Spirit Center, to me. It was on September 11th they called me and told me to come in, that day, I was told that the Shepherds of Christ Movement could only say Our Fathers and Hail Marys there. And I could not receive messages and we could not say the prayers.

2. R. And Jesus was crowned with thorns and the blood poured down His face. For the men are blind and they do not see that the Almighty God loved us to His death on the cross and that He gives Himself this day to us in the Holy Eucharist. And He is ignored and forgotten. And the angel came at Fatima and the angel told us that the Almighty God is ignored. This is eighty years ago. And she tells us what we must do when she appears to the visionaries at Fatima. And it is to give our hearts to Jesus and Mary, that Jesus will Reign on His Throne. And the angel told of the Eucharist and they disobeyed. And Mary comes and she appears to the visionaries and they block the part that would take the children of Light to the Eucharistic Heart of Jesus.

3. Hail Mary

4. R. Mary’s womb is the holy city. This is what He gave me on January 5th of this year after He gave that All Night Message. Her womb is the holy city. The city of Light begins in her womb. It is the temple of the Lord, the Ark of the Covenant, bare baby, bare flesh laid bare.

January 5, 1997 - Jesus: ...“Open yourself, Oh Jerusalem, your time is come you will be a light to the people in darkness, many will walk whence you come and the earth will be shakened and the light will come across a dark sky and enlighten their minds.”

5. January 5, 1997 - Jesus: “Oh stiff-necked people, you are so stiff in your ways, let the Spirit envelope you and lead you on your way.

A country of stiffs, a people of planning and prodding, of deliberating and wondering — you lack faith, Jerusalem, you lack faith in God.”

6. R. And it is a sign that will not be accepted. And how was it with Christ? For the Almighty God, Himself, carried the cross to Calvary and they hung Him on a tree to His death.

7. R. And He spoke to me on January 5th and He said —

January 5, 1997 - Jesus: “Oh walk naked into the cold night, you are cold in your hearts and naked in your clothing — I clothe you with glory, I light your face with light, but you turn your cheeks to the darkness and stay stiff-necked in your hearts. Oh cold and dark hearts, reach for the light that you may know the glory that awaits the sinners and enlightens their minds.” end of excerpt

8. Psalm 132: 13-14

For Yahweh has chosen Zion,
he has desired it as a home.
‘Here shall I rest for evermore,
here shall I make my home as I have wished.

9. R. And it speaks in Revelation and it says —

Revelation 21: 1-3

Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; the first heaven and the first earth had disappeared now, and there was no longer any sea. I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride dressed for her husband. Then I heard a loud voice call from the throne, ‘Look, here God lives among human beings. He will make his home among them; they will be his people, and he will be their God, God – with – them.

R. But it will not happen without going to the heart of Mary. It says in the Magnificat as Mary speaks, “All generations will call me blessed.” Is our generation calling the Virgin Mary blessed?

10. R. We have gone full circle for Eve sinned and the light was dimmed. And now the time is nigh as Mary says in the December 19th message. For He will separate the children of Light from the children of darkness. For then it speaks in Revelation further and it says —

Revelation 21: 4-5

He will wipe away all tears from their eyes; there will be no more death, and no more mourning or sadness or pain. The world of the past has gone.’ Then the One sitting on the throne spoke. ‘Look, I am making the whole of creation new...

Isaiah 61: 10a

I exult for joy in Yahweh,
my soul rejoices in my God,
for he has clothed me
in garments of salvation,
he has wrapped me in a cloak
of saving justice,

 

Jesus Died on the Cross

l. R. The wedding feast has been prepared and the guests have not come. Look at our altars. Look at our tabernacle. The Churches are locked and the Son of God dwells within. And He is not loved and adored, He is forgotten and treated with indifference by many.

2. R. And we wanted cakes and pies and frills and He gave us so much more. Jesus gave us the gift of Himself. Jesus gave us the Bread of Life.

3. R. The Good Shepherd is the Lamb of God. We must become docile as little lambs. He was not haughty. He entered the world as a baby. He died, the Lamb, taken to the slaughter, the Lamb of God.

4. R. It is by the Blood of the Lamb that we are saved.

5. Hail Mary
6. Hail Mary

7. R. And so I say to you blood can be a great fear to so many. For it is a mystery how it comes and how it will be released, yet beneath the surface of the skin if we prick our finger, it pours forth when a person is wounded. And He speaks and He says —

Jesus: Do you control the flow of the blood in your body? Oh you silly men, that which is what is so necessary for life, blood, air, a heart beating, pumping blood, you have no control over your life. Yet you spend your life plotting and planning and your life is constantly on the line out of your own control.

8. Jesus: You are blind and bolted to the earth. You cannot see clearly the things of God nor do you have the inspiration to comprehend what I send you as great lights to enlighten you. You are busy for your silly things, it is the things of the heart, the things of the Spirit that will lead you to the true treasure that is everlasting.

9. Jesus: Your body is not the end! You can worship your body. You lack grace and wisdom and understanding. Yet in order to learn, you must realize you are to be childlike and dependent on God. Oh silly earth, you are not rooted in God. You do not hear the dying words of your Savior on the cross. You do not hear the gifts, you do not hear. You have given it little attention.

10. Jesus: You tend to the lilies that are attended to by Me. You do not tend to that which will make you saints. Oh silly ones, come to Me now and let Me walk you through these trials on this earth. The earth is experiencing trials because of their willfulness, because of their willful ways.

September 3, 1997 - Jesus: “Why would the Father bless you in your willful ways? I am angered at the earth. I am angered at those who ignore these messages and miss their time alone with Me. You cannot comprehend what I am telling you. The sun will glisten and the earth will be lighted by its light. A light to enlighten the pagans. A light I give to you in your hearts. Oh Lady of Light shining so bright.

For I give to them a light to enlighten them. So many today have turned their hearts from God. It is for thee I call. I call out to thee, My chosen soul, from the deepest recesses of My Heart and I am ignored and forgotten. I am God, God, you silly ones. I speak here and I am ignored. I give you My light, a light to enlighten the pagans, to enlighten the hearts and the minds, to bring about peace, justice and purity in your heart. You will have all that you need. I am God, the Mighty One.”

R. And He gives to us His Body and His Blood. The banquet is prepared and in the new era there will be this spousal relationship between the souls and the Almighty God. No matter how far this earth has veered from the truth, this is the Plan of the Father. From the beginning of Genesis to the end in Revelation, the Plan of the Father will unfold. And He appeared on the cross to me two times; once on December 5th, at the point of death with His mouth moving because no one would listen, after Mary appeared on the 5th of the month for two years and four months and she was ignored. And then He appeared on August 20th, 1997 glistening in glory and white. And He said to us shepherds that the victory was won for we will know a time of great blossoming and the Movement will spread to the far ends of the earth. He said —

Jesus: Oh no, no, My sweet ones, the victory is not in what happens to you personally. The victory is how the priests are in their hearts, how the people have turned their hearts to consecration and love of God and when you lay flat on the ground, My shepherds, do not be discouraged for I hung on the cross as you saw Me at the point of death in brutal suffering and pain with hallowed cheeks and blood smeared all over My body and the wounds within My whole body were so deep and the victory that came forth was the sharing in My Divine life on Easter Sunday. And I give to you sufferings and the victory is won in your participation in My life, not in your body and how you are pleasurely seeking it here.

After Rosary:

R. And so there is a fight. There are two kingdoms and one, the head is Lucifer, and the other is God. And we are truly undergoing this spiritual warfare that is beyond our comprehension. And I have seen, as He has shown me, how every time He gave a very, very, very important message, a very important gift from Heaven to bring about the Reign of the Sacred Heart, that the devil worked in another person giving a false message on the same exact date that caused great confusion and blockage of the message that He gave. And so we must be aware in our lives that as we are given great gifts from Him, things that will lead to bringing about the Reign of His Heart. Satan is real and that he will try to block whatever it is that will lead to building up the Kingdom of God. And He works through people, well meaning people that do not even understand how they are blocking His Plan through their willfulness. But His Plan will unfold despite the willfulness of so many. And the Reign of the Sacred Heart will come in the hearts of all men that give their heart to Him.
