for the Shepherds of Christ
being in the Virgin Mary Building
in Clearwater, Florida.

God has a plan
God is commander of the world
A commander of the army gave his plan
for defense in a war
There were men under him in charge
of platoons that were to implement
his plan
It was solid to protect a territory and
men's lives
A man in charge of a platoon said
"Oh too many of my men will die
the commander is wrong —
I love my men they shouldn't
die and they will if I follow
the chief commander —"
(God knows all things)
Well you guessed it the man disobeyed —
all of his men were wiped out
because of his disobedience and the
territory lost
women and children too died —
The Plan was given by the chief commander,
but the man underneath disobeyed
and led his men into death —
From the fall of Adam there is disorder
The Shepherds of Christ was given by Jesus to help
renew the Church and the world
God created us in His image and likeness.
Because of the fall man (human creatures
except Mary) are marked with original
sin
There is disorder
in men
in the elements
in animals
because of the fall
God gave the rules
God commanded us to know, love and
serve Him and love our neighbors
as ourselves
God created us with a desire that can
only be filled by Him —
He wants us obedient —
Jesus came as Savior of the World —
the New Adam
We must obey the commandments
In heaven there is perfect obedience
to the will of God
To do things out of jealousy, envy,
anger, lust, lethargy, are
impure motives —
Operating without authority is wrong.
God has all the Power.
Jesus Christ is the head of the Church.
The members of the Church are the
mystical body of Christ.
Look at the disorder —
for all of salvation history men have
disobeyed God
The lesson is to obey God
God made a covenant with the people of
the earth at the time of Noah
to not destroy the earth again
by a flood — and sent a rainbow as sign —
Mary appeared in
CLEAR - WATER
Mary appeared as a rainbow for
7 1/2 years
Jesus sent me to the south of Florida
June 26, 1995 and gave the pain message
13 years ago
Kings have disobeyed God
Adam and Eve sinned
sin becomes worse
gravity gets worse
Cain slew his brother —
Cain's sin was premeditated
Seriousness of sin worsened
Jesus knocks on our door
the Hound of Heaven
you can see people worrying about
what people think of them —
Be free — lets look at how
God called us and how we
have affected the whole earth
Fr. Pasquini said we have helped the Church
Fr. Carter said he believed the Shepherds of Christ
would go down as one of the best
Movements in the history of the Church.
The Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary
sacramentally made present.
We as members of the body of Christ
are united to all the Masses going on
around the world.
Look at the loss of lives because
of abortion, wars —
We must pray united to the Mass
So much grace is outpoured because of
us praying with so much love united to
the Mass.
A Prayer before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
Let me be a holy sacrifice and unite with God in the sacrament of His greatest love.
I want to be one in Him in this act of love, where He gives Himself to me and I give myself as a sacrifice to Him. Let me be a holy sacrifice as I become one with Him in this my act of greatest love to Him.
Let me unite with Him more, that I may more deeply love Him. May I help make reparation to His adorable Heart and the heart of His Mother, Mary. With greatest love, I offer myself to You and pray that You will accept my sacrifice of greatest love. I give myself to You and unite in Your gift of Yourself to me. Come and possess my soul.
Cleanse me, strengthen me, heal me. Dear Holy Spirit act in the heart of Mary to make me more and more like Jesus.
Father, I offer this my sacrifice, myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit to You. Help me to love God more deeply in this act of my greatest love.
Give me the grace to grow in my knowledge, love and service of You and for this to be my greatest participation in the Mass. Give me the greatest graces to love You so deeply in this Mass, You who are so worthy of my love.
-God's Blue Book, December 27, 1995
Creation had order ORDER to Creation
Read Genesis Chapter 1
1st day - God created heavens and earth
God said "Let there be light"
God separated light from darkness
... evening came and morning followed
2nd day - Genesis 1: 6-8
Genesis 1: 6-8
God said, ‘Let there be a vault through the middle of the waters to divide the waters in two.’ And so it was. God made the vault, and it divided the waters under the vault from the waters above the vault. God called the vault ‘heaven’. Evening came and morning came: the second day.
3rd day - Genesis dry land and sea
vegetation - seed and fruit tree
4th day - sun and moon and stars
5th day - birds, sea monsters, swimming creatures
"Be fertile and multiply"
6th day - living creatures
cattle, creeping things, wild animals
Genesis 1: 26-31
God said, ‘Let us make man in our own image, in the likeness of ourselves, and let them be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven, the cattle, all the wild animals and all the creatures that creep along the ground.’
God created man in the image of himself,
in the image of God he created him,
male and female he created them.God blessed them, saying to them, ‘Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth and subdue it. Be masters of the fish of the sea, the birds of heaven and all the living creatures that move on earth.’ God also said, ‘Look, to you I give all the seed–bearing plants everywhere on the surface of the earth, and all the trees with seed–bearing fruit; this will be your food. And to all the wild animals, all the birds of heaven and all the living creatures that creep along the ground, I give all the foliage of the plants as their food.’ And so it was. God saw all he had made, and indeed it was very good. Evening came and morning came: the sixth day.
Man was created last
ALL is created by God with meaning and purpose
From The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius,
by Louis J. Puhl, S.J. p. 1223. FIRST PRINCIPLE AND FOUNDATION
Man is created to praise, reverence and serve God
our Lord, and by this means to save his soul.
Man is created in the image and likeness of God
God is love
to live without this focus is to live like a fish
out of water
Jesus: Open up your hearts and be docile — ready to be taught
pray to the Holy Spirit.
You have been called and gifted by your God to
share in His life through baptism —
Man lives in time
You must open your minds to understand more
deeply insight into the Divine Mysteries —
I am teaching you about Myself in the Word —
I am instructing you in your lives here —
How can I work in a man who thinks he
has all the answers and knows everything —
because of the sin of Adam and Eve the light
was dimmed
You were given such gifts —
Adam and Eve sinned
I am God — I tell the stars to shine and the
sun to shine — I rule the earth —
you are little men - with little minds —
seeking power over God
Listen and be taught
Obey My rules
Seek the Plan of the Father —
Oh little men with little minds
I teach you in My Creation — everything
I created bears My handprint.
I impart to you My vision in the Blue Books
and the Priestly Newsletter —
the writings from Fr. Carter, Rita Ring and
Fr. John Pasquini
Open your hearts
Be awake — so you will learn more and more —
I feed you with My Word
I feed you with the Eucharist.
I want My precious souls to be with Me in
heaven — I am Jesus King of heaven
and earth — I ask you in the
Shepherds of Christ to help
spread devotion to My Sacred Heart and
My Mother's Immaculate Heart —
You were chosen by Me —
You press on My Messenger —
Rather than listening to My call to you to
help people make Me the King and
Center of their Hearts —
I am the Eternal King
I come to you
I am the Light of the World
I am the King of the Kingdom
Revelation 22: 12-21
Look, I am coming soon, and my reward is with me, to repay everyone as their deeds deserve. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. Blessed are those who will have washed their robes clean, so that they will have the right to feed on the tree of life and can come through the gates into the city. Others must stay outside: dogs, fortune-tellers, and the sexually immoral, murderers, idolaters, and everyone of false speech and false life.'
EPILOGUE
I, Jesus, have sent my angel to attest these things to you for the sake of the churches. I am the sprig from the root of David and the bright star of the morning.
The Spirit and the Bride say, ‘Come!’ Let everyone who listens answer, ‘Come!’ Then let all who are thirsty come: all who want it may have the water of life, and have it free.
This is my solemn attestation to all who hear the prophecies in this book: if anyone adds anything to them, God will add to him every plague mentioned in the book; if anyone cuts anything out of the prophecies in this book, God will cut off his share of the tree of life and of the holy city, which are described in the book.
The one who attests these things says: I am indeed coming soon.
Amen; come, Lord Jesus.
May the grace of the Lord Jesus be with you all. Amen.
Look at My creation —
see the symmetry in the smallest
potato bug —
the little fish of the sea
I CALL
YOU RESPOND or DISOBEY,
(not respond)
R. Fr. Carter wrote a book Response in Christ
Response to God's Love
In this He stated
God first loved us —
1 John 4: 17-21
Love comes to its perfection in us when we can face the Day of Judgement fearlessly, because even in this world we have become as he is. In love there is no room for fear, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear implies punishment and no one who is afraid has come to perfection in love. Let us love, then, because he first loved us. Anyone who says 'I love God' and hates his brother, is a liar, since whoever does not love the brother whom he can see cannot love God whom he has not seen. Indeed this is the commandment we have received from him, that whoever loves God, must also love his brother.
R. God gives us a picture of Himself in His Word
God tells us about Himself in the Word
The Bible tells us about SALVATION
The SPIRIT
Covenant with God
Worship
the Kingdom
the Church
Christology
Jesus teaches us about radical renunciation
LET the dead bury the dead
Come follow ME
If we are in God's family we do God's will —
we show love to God by loving
God's will —
When we don't do God's will we are
not loving God
Matthew 12: 48-50
But to the man who told him this Jesus replied, 'Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?' And stretching out his hand towards his disciples he said, 'Here are my mother and my brothers. Anyone who does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.'
What good does it do to gain the whole world
and lose our soul — we are here to
grow to be more like Jesus —
We were created to be in the image of Jesus
We must be more and more like little children obeying
our heavenly Father
Luke 10: 21-22
Just at this time, filled with joy by the Holy Spirit, he said, ‘I bless you, Father, Lord of heaven and of earth, for hiding these things from the learned and the clever and revealing them to little children. Yes, Father, for that is what it has pleased you to do. Everything has been entrusted to me by my Father; and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son and those to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.’
We know not the day nor the hour
We have only a few years here
R. I am really hating myself when I don't
love God or neighbor
Escapism — morbid flight from painful reality
Loneliness — not properly relating to self
and others
Asceticism — self discipline
control emotions
do God's will
not lazy
open to Holy Spirit
not getting false messages and
promptings
take care of our body
We are always living to be molded more
in the image and likeness of God —
God intends us to walk hand-in-hand
loving Him and others —
being united as one
When a person isolates and does not
mix well with others — they are not
in touch with their true self and others
We are always striving to be the person
God wants us to be
I LIVE FOR GOD
Christ leads us back to the Father in the Holy Spirit
It is our response to God's love.
(1) God loved us first
John 3: 16
For this is how God loved the world:
he gave his only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him
may not perish
but may have eternal life.
(2) We love God
The Shepherds of Christ are spreading devotion to the
Sacred Heart of Jesus —
We love Him in return
God commands this:
Matthew 22: 36-40
'Master, which is the greatest commandment of the Law?' Jesus said to him, 'You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment. The second resembles it: You must love your neighbour as yourself. On these two commandments hang the whole Law, and the Prophets too.'
R. We love God because He first loved us —
It is our response to God's love
We cannot say we love God and hate our brother —
1 John 4: 17-21
Love comes to its perfection in us when we can face the Day of Judgement fearlessly, because even in this world we have become as he is. In love there is no room for fear, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear implies punishment and no one who is afraid has come to perfection in love. Let us love, then, because he first loved us. Anyone who says 'I love God' and hates his brother, is a liar, since whoever does not love the brother whom he can see cannot love God whom he has not seen. Indeed this is the commandment we have received from him, that whoever loves God, must also love his brother.
There are 3 loves Fr. Carter says
(1) Love of God
(2) Love of others
(3) Love of self
To not love God and others is to hate
oneself.
God elevates our human nature in baptism —
Our knowing and loving capacity is elevated.
We receive a participation in His life —
We receive grace —
Everything we do must be for the honor and glory
of God — all we eat - drink - everything.
Christian life is considered as the Christ-life
Romans 6: 3-14
You cannot have forgotten that all of us, when we were baptised into Christ Jesus, were baptised into his death. So by our baptism into his death we were buried with him, so that as Christ was raised from the dead by the Father’s glorious power, we too should begin living a new life. If we have been joined to him by dying a death like his, so we shall be by a resurrection like his: realising that our former self was crucified with him, so that the self which belonged to sin should be destroyed and we should be freed from the slavery of sin. Someone who has died, of course, no longer has to answer for sin.
But we believe that, if we died with Christ, then we shall live with him too. We know that Christ has been raised from the dead and will never die again. Death has no power over him any more. For by dying, he is dead to sin once and for all, and now the life that he lives is life with God. In the same way, you must see yourselves as being dead to sin but alive for God in Christ Jesus.
That is why you must not allow sin to reign over your mortal bodies and make you obey their desires; or give any parts of your bodies over to sin to be used as instruments of evil. Instead, give yourselves to God, as people brought to life from the dead, and give every part of your bodies to God to be instruments of uprightness; and then sin will no longer have any power over you—you are living not under law, but under grace.
2 Corinthians 4: 7-11
But we hold this treasure in pots of earthenware, so that the immensity of the power is God’s and not our own. We are subjected to every kind of hardship, but never distressed; we see no way out but we never despair; we are pursued but never cut off; knocked down, but still have some life in us; always we carry with us in our body the death of Jesus so that the life of Jesus, too, may be visible in our body. Indeed, while we are still alive, we are continually being handed over to death, for the sake of Jesus, so that the life of Jesus, too, may be visible in our mortal flesh.
R. We are constantly dying to the old self.
We have the Christ-life in us —
we live not like a dog or a plant
We reflect God in our (1) knowing
(2) willing
Everything we do should be an expression
of Christ alive in me.
Everything centered in love.
Galatians 2: 19-20
...I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me.
R. Jesus knows me more than I know myself!!
We need friendship with Jesus.
Jesus knows everything!!
No one can give to Christ what I can. I am
uniquely created. If I would realize
what it is to be redeemed by God's love,
that He intimately loves me more than
I love myself — I would be happy —
Happiness is in loving God
Happiness is obedience to God —
Happiness is loving according to the
Father's will in love
If I build my self image on what others
think of me, then I am not happy —
Who can teach us about a God-like
existence — the Spirit of God
dwelling within our graced
baptized soul.
Jesus leads us to the Father in the Spirit
Love is the gift of self to the other to promote
the good of the other —
God has called us to serve Him in the Shepherds of Christ —
God has taught us about Himself to
share this with the Church and the
world.
We are Shepherds of Christ —
We love those when we are like
Christ and spread His messages
of love — love is giving for
the good of the other —
Not to be like the world —
to not love God and others is to hate
oneself —
for we were created to be likened
to Christ and God is love —
God commands us to love Him and
to love our neighbor as ourselves.
Sunday is to be a day to focus on Christ —
to celebrate the gifts God gives
us.
God created a beautiful world —
orderly, harmonious, good —
loving, peaceful
God showed the love to Adam and Eve —
Adam and Eve sinned — there was disorder
Sin is disorder
Evil is disorder — Against God's will
In the Bible there is the focus on
good and evil —
Good is living according to God's plan
living according to God's will
obedience
Evil is against God's will
Water is a source of life CLEAR - WATER
Notice the woman at the well in the
3rd week of Lent —
Jesus says —
John 4: 10-14
Jesus replied to her:
If you only knew what God is offering
and who it is that is saying to you,
‘Give me something to drink,’
you would have been the one to ask,
and he would have given you living water.‘You have no bucket, sir,’ she answered, ‘and the well is deep: how do you get this living water? Are you a greater man than our father Jacob, who gave us this well and drank from it himself with his sons and his cattle?’ Jesus replied:
Whoever drinks this water
will be thirsty again;
but no one who drinks the water
that I shall give
will ever be thirsty again:
the water that I shall give
will become a spring of water within,
welling up for eternal life.
Man and woman are naked in the garden and
feel no shame before the fall
The devil makes good look evil
and evil look good
The Fall —
Adam and Eve — father and mother of humanity
disobey God's rules
Man hides
The devil likes things in secret, but we
can't hide anything from God —
God probes our hearts —
We are foolish
We will stand naked before our God —
all done in darkness, disobedience
to God's will — will be brought to
light
Sin can never be hidden.
A person is accountable to God for
one's disobedience.
Blame enters the world because of the
sin of Adam and Eve
Man seeks dominance for dominance
sake over the authority.
Concupiscence inclines humans toward
sin.
We Christians are torn between
grace and concupiscence.
Grace moves us to God.
Concupiscence moves us to sin.
The devil tempts men to sin —
Mary is the New Eve, Jesus the New Adam
Sin is disorder
Tension now between men and women,
men and men
women and women
We suffer because of the sin
of Adam
Our work in the Shepherds of Christ is aiding
in the work of redemption
and sanctification —
Despite our sin
God loves us
Romans 5: 12-19
Well then; it was through one man that sin came into the world, and through sin death, and thus death has spread through the whole human race because everyone has sinned. Sin already existed in the world before there was any law, even though sin is not reckoned when there is no law. Nonetheless death reigned over all from Adam to Moses, even over those whose sin was not the breaking of a commandment, as Adam's was. He prefigured the One who was to come . . .
There is no comparison between the free gift and the offence. If death came to many through the offence of one man, how much greater an effect the grace of God has had, coming to so many and so plentifully as a free gift through the one man Jesus Christ! Again, there is no comparison between the gift and the offence of one man. One single offence brought condemnation, but now, after many offences, have come the free gift and so acquittal! It was by one man’s offence that death came to reign over all, but how much greater the reign in life of those who receive the fullness of grace and the gift of saving justice, through the one man, Jesus Christ. One man’s offence brought condemnation on all humanity; and one man’s good act has brought justification and life to all humanity. Just as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by one man’s obedience are many to be made upright.
Man fell in the garden
We needed a Redeemer
The Blue Books show us Jesus'
undaunted love for us —
Jesus writes to us about the gift
of the Eucharist —
Jesus feeds us with His Word and the
Eucharist —
How can we not see the building
exists to spread the Consecration
to the Hearts of Jesus and Mary and
the love of Jesus in
Fr. Carter's writings, Fr. Pasquini's
writings and the Blue Books
Mary's image head was knocked off
Jesus' IMAGE remained
built on rock under the image
from the sinkhole
We see with tainted vision because
of original sin —
(1) We see God with tainted vision
(2) We see others with tainted vision
(3) We see ourselves with tainted vision
Jealousy blocking these revelations is
stupid
Thank God for calling you to spread
His writings
This is a gift to the world
Fr. Carter
Fr. Pasquini's writings
My revelations Rita Ring
Wounded human nature is healed more
and more by the Medicine of Immortality —
the Eucharist and the Word.
Sin became premeditated with Cain
and by the time of Noah God flooded the
earth — all except Noah and Noah's descendants
because men had become so corrupt —
it was a just thing to not let this
corruption continue — God made a
covenant with Noah to never flood
the earth again and destroy it by water and
the rainbow was a sign of the
Covenant
God allowed Mary to appear
December 17, 1996
On December 17, 1991 — 5 years before I
had a vision of Jesus' Sacred Heart
On Fire for love of Man
When Mary's image head was knocked off at
CLEAR - WATER —
the state of Florida was ravaged
by floods, but
Jesus' face remained and because of
the sinkhole — we poured
tons of concrete under the image
of Jesus' face
Matthew 16:18
So I now say to you: you are Peter and on this rock I will build my community. And the gates of the underworld can never overpower it.
Man's final goal is the vision of God —
We journey from earth to Heaven —
a journey from time and space to
the timeless world of the
beatific vision — if we
do as God wants us to do!!
We reach greater perfection by what we
do. We must follow the
right road of living according
to God's will in love —
(1) loving God
(2) loving others
(3) loving ourselves
Seeking holiness not giving into
rebelliousness of our wounded
human nature.
We have control of our actions —
We are above animals and plants —
The final destiny lies in man's
freedom over his own actions —
So St. Ignatius gave us the Spiritual
Exercises which has as their
purpose
From The Spiritual Exercises of St. Ignatius,
by Louis J. Puhl, S.J. p. 1121. SPIRITUAL EXERCISES
Which have as their purpose the conquest of self
and the regulation of one's life in such a way that
no decision is made under the influence of any
inordinate attachment
We control how we act
We control how we let ourselves
give into anger, envy,
lust, pride, possessiveness —
disobeying authority
SIN is DISORDER
God gives us the Church
The Church is the reflection of the Trinity
The Trinity is the perfect community
Grace is a created participation into
Trinitarian life
The Church is a proper leaven for the
formation of a better world
community
The Christ-life — this sharing we receive
at baptism - calls us to a special
existence of knowing and loving
Christian Faith and Love are created,
participations in the Trinities
knowing and loving
FAITH and LOVE give a new capacity
to relate to both Christians as
well as all others
CONCEPT of BODY of CHRIST Emphasizes
Sense of Corporateness that should
permeate the consciousness of the
Church's members
We should rejoice in each others gifts
We operate to build up the body.
The Church in union with Christ,
her head, helps continue the
work of Jesus according to the
pattern of Jesus
This is a most powerful disc
that can lift you all through the day.
