#537 - WORLDLY POPULARITY

"And all their works they do for to be seen of men. For they make their phylacteries broad, and enlarge their fringes. And they love the first places at feasts, and the first chairs in the synagogues, and salutations in the market place, and to be called by men, Rabbi. But be not you called Rabbi. For one is your master; and all you are brethren." - St. Matthew 23: 5-8

INSANE WITH SIN
"We have been very patient. The Eternal Father has voiced His decision within My hearing, and I tell you, My children, your chastisement is just at hand.
"We expect all of you to read and re-read My Mother's directives, for they are My directives in the Eternal Father and the Holy Ghost.
"No man shall fall into hell unless he wishes it. For his heart and his eyes are blinded. His heart is hardened, and the pleasures of the world, and the popularity of a generation that has gone insane with sin--for these he will give up his eternal soul." - Jesus, July 1, 1985

AN EMPIRE OF WEALTH AND FAME
"Clergy, you must pray now and do penance. Gather your graces. And these graces shall not be counted in the coffers of your collection plates. You will not carry a mark of esteem with the heading of the dollar sign, for you will sell your souls to get to the head. Do not spend your time building an empire of wealth and fame, for the Eternal Father will set judgment upon you, and neither counting your money nor your worldly fame, but the duty and the honor that you have extended to Him in your vocation and your life's work, and the manner in which you have brought His sheep to Him, or the way that you have been instrumental in leading them to their damnation and into the abode of the damned with Lucifer.
"And woe to the clergy who has given himself over to worldliness and sin! Woe to the clergy who rejects his vocation and chooses a life upon earth after he has taken his vows! I say unto him: the judgment will fall great upon him.” – Jesus, August 4, 1979

REMAIN SIMPLE OF HEART
"My children, you will have to remain simple in heart and desire, neither caring for nor seeking worldly acclaim or possessions. Store your treasures in Heaven, My children, where neither moth nor rust shall corrupt them, where neither robbers shall take them from you.
"Too many, My children, have lost their souls seeking to get to the head. Riches are all vainglory in your world, My children. Power is vainglory, for all is passing fast." - Our Lady, November 1, 1977

SAD BUT TRUE
"Those who have been given the leadership in My Son's House will one day stand before the Father, and will they be able to say that their leadership has been just in His eyes? Shall you stand before Him and say that your teaching has been clean of impurity?
"It is sad, My child, but true, that many care more for recognition by man than for their eternal salvation.
"My child, many turn their eyes and their hearts from the truth. They do not care. Love! The word 'love' We hear constantly coming to Us. Love--so few know the true meaning of love. So few are willing to sacrifice the things of this world of yours, so temporal in nature. Better that you store your treasures in Heaven." - Our Lady, June 8, 1974

DO NOT LOOK FOR RECOGNITION
"Many must earn their daily bread. All must earn their daily bread upon the earth. In doing this they will do this with honor. Of the hours you awaken to, you will say, 'this day I give to please my God.' In this manner you will be directed in the light.
"You have all received in your baptism the opportunity to attain the Kingdom. The road is very simple to follow. You do not look for recognition among men. You look to please your God. You try to please your God. For if you try to find recognition and the approval of man on earth, you are doomed to great sorrow. For all the hours, the waking hours of your life on earth must be with one purpose in mind--that you are working your way back to the Kingdom." - St. Theresa, December 31, 1972

SEEK RECOGNITION OF THE FATHER
"O My children, what more can I say to you? What more can the Eternal Father do to awaken you--you who are apathetic, not caring until you are struck by destruction; you who watch as the warnings go by, not caring until it enters your home; and you who go by like ducks in the waters, not caring or wondering or questioning why you proceed in that path; and you who, in your blindness; and you who, in your blindness of blind obedience, have given yourselves to destruction and destroying My Son's House in your obedience to man! No man shall be obedient to satan.
     "My children, long ago I warned you from Fatima, I warned you through many voice-boxes throughout your world that the time will come when you will embark upon a stormy sea, and it shall be bishop against bishop and cardinal against cardinal, and satan shall set himself in your midst. He shall maneuver and pit you and play you against each other in his plan to destroy My Son's House. Recognize what is happening now upon your earth. I say unto you, O pastors in My Son's House: if you do not listen, if you continue to proceed upon your present course, you ask for the heavy hand of My Son to come upon you. Your world shall be cleansed with a baptism of fire. My children, have you not learned anything from your past? As in the time of Noe, with the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrha, have you not learned that a degenerate generation calls upon itself a heavy hand of chastisement from the Eternal Father?
     "Yes, My child, I understand your deep grief and sorrow. O My child, We are like voices crying in the wilderness: get ready and keep on the narrow road, for the time is growing short. Do not, My child, slacken in your mission by all of the opinions of mankind. Accept the cross and carry it, My child, without complaint.
     "You will receive very little recognition, My child, upon your earth pilgrimage, but remember it is the recognition of the Eternal Father in Heaven that is all that you must seek. When you leave, My child, you can take nothing with you but love and prayers." - Our Lady, November 20, 1976

"MY CHILDREN OF LIGHT"
"My children of light, do not be distressed, for I shall be with you; and your confidence shall be in the words given to you through My Mother, in all of the messages from Heaven that will guide you when the road becomes filled with thorns and the cross grows heavy.
"Yes, My children, for those who have been given much, much will be expected of them, even unto martyrdom.
"Do not seek to be recognized by man, for if you, in your pride, seek this recognition, you have already received your reward. But do your--do good deeds for the Eternal Father Who watches you in secret, for He will reward you. However, if you give yourselves over to the world, seeking the plaudits of the world, you have already received your reward." - Jesus, November 24, 1979

EXPECT NO RECOGNITION FROM MANKIND
"Since you have chosen to give this to mankind--I had expected this of you, My child--you will learn another simple lesson of the Father. Do not expect to be recognized by mankind, for his reward is not worth, My child, your efforts. Do your work as given, expecting no reward or recognition from mankind. For the Father has a special plan for all He chooses to do His work.
"You see, My child, it is well worth waiting for, for when you receive glorification from mankind you have already received your reward. I know, My child, that that you do not want, for you have been given the opportunity to know what lies ahead. You choose well.
"The road to martyrdom, My child, is not one that would be accepted in your human nature. However, all who enter the Kingdom of the Father must carry the cross." - Our Lady, April 13, 1974

"YOU WILL SAVE SOULS"
"My children, you may expect great opposition in the promotion of My Mother's mission. You will go forward with great perseverance and courage. The grace will be given to all to remain steadfast in the truth.
"You may expect to be persecuted as I, too, was allowed by the Father to go through this trial. Know that this battle will rage with great ferocity, but the final outcome will be a triumph for all Heaven. You are being tested, and you will be given great trial. Stand fast in your Faith, keep the truth in your heart, and remain on the narrow path. Cast aside all your human inclinations for worldly gain or recognition. You will be treated and you will be forced to grovel, but do this and you will save souls. They will trample you, but know that the prophets before you had to be trampled before they rose above their persecutors. Your example will save many souls, My children, so continue with the Mission from Heaven." - Jesus, July 25, 1974

HUMAN FRAILTY
"Penance, My children, the world must do heavy penance. You must keep in heart that you cannot have the world and the Kingdom of God. For you will love one and reject the other. The world and the Kingdom of the Father are not companionable. When you are not of the light you will love the world, but if you reject the world you will find the light.
"You, My child, must learn a simple lesson. If you are given your reward upon earth, what have you to look forward to in the Kingdom? Do your work, My child, in secret so that the Father Who sees you in secret shall reward you. It is only the human frailty of pride that makes man seek recognition. Yes, My child, pride is a sin. Mortification--this, My child, will be sent to you for reason. Soon you will thirst for mortification, for only in this manner will you retrieve the souls.
"I place, My child, your hand in Mine, knowing that I protect you in the days ahead. I place My blue mantle over all My children. What is there to fear but fear? Face fear, My child, and it will soon disappear." - Our Lady, November 23, 1974

"YOUR ROAD WILL BE FILLED WITH THORNS"
"Now, My children, a great war rages against the forces of evil. It is a war that is far greater than any human nature war experienced by mankind, for you are now in the latter days. It is a war of the spirits, the fight between the good and the evil, the time of Armageddon!
"Laugh, you who scorn My message--derision and mockery you may give, but if you do not accept and act upon the warning from Heaven, you shall not be counted in those saved.
"Remember, My child, it would be best for your mission if you do not listen to the public opinions. I understand, My child, in your human nature, your desire for recognition of the mission. But know now, My child, as I have counseled you in the past, that you shall not accept the roses until the end of your mission. Your road will be filled with thorns. Accept the cross, My child, without complaint; carry it to the end." - Our Lady, December 24, 1976

“YOUR MINDS ARE CONFUSED WITH WORLDLINESS”
"I say unto the clergy, My Son's priests and the clergy of the world: you have been blinded because of pride and arrogance. Your minds are confused with worldliness, humanism, and modernism. Pray on your knees! Take your heads out of the fog now while there is time, for your time is running out. Redeem yourselves in the eyes of the Eternal Father now.” – Our Lady, August 4, 1979

BLINDED TO THE TRUTH
"Errors are compounded upon errors in My House. The Red Hats are given to all sins of the flesh. The Purple Hats follow in blind obedience, and they, too, fall to all manner of sins of the flesh and worldliness--self-seeking, arrogant, and prideful. Because of these reasons, My children, they are blinded to the truth.
"Many good souls of light have offered themselves to Heaven as victim souls for the repatriation of the lukewarm and the fallen souls in My House. We accept in all charity of heart from Heaven these fruits from the light, these fruits from the hearts of the humble. But I say unto you: there are not enough prayers, there are not enough sacrifices and penance to save many among the Red Hats and the Purple Hats.” – Jesus, December 31, 1976

DETACH YOURSELVES FROM WORLDLY LIVING
"My children, My Mother will counsel you in your trials and the time of tribulation. She will not abandon you in your struggles. You must all pray more. Detach yourselves from your worldly living and pray. It is your contact with Heaven. You must all lead and live and practice more spiritual life. Worldliness and worldly pursuits are as nothing to you. There is not one worldly, materialistic thing or person that will be able to save you or give you necessary merit when you come over the veil for judgment.” – Jesus, August 5, 1978

FOR LOVE OF MONEY AND WORLDLY LIVING
"For the love of money and worldly living, Our pastors have given themselves to satan. Unless they remove themselves from this web of evil created by the money powers of the world, they, too, shall be judged and cast into the abyss. Many have sold their souls to get to the head.” – Our Lady, September 13, 1975

UNLESS YOU TURN FROM WORLDLY AFFECTIONS …
"Our joy is multiplied this evening by the numbers of Our children who have come to Our defense in the war against satan. The evil he promotes has accelerated. Unless you become knowledgeable and recognize his handiwork, the end of your era will be hastened. Unless you turn from worldly affections and give yourself to My Son, you will be lost in the darkness.
     "My children, never cease your prayers for Our Vicar, who is in constant danger. Should he be removed from among you, you will receive a man of dark secrets. Beware of one who will come in sheep's garment.
     "You must recognize the ways of satan. He will come and reach you with cunning and deception. He will set man up as one to glorify, as an idol to worship. This offends My Son! The body and mind are being studied, analyzed, restructured, but where is the spirit? Starved for the light of truth!
     "You cannot make a soul strong by catering to the worldly desires of the flesh. Give man everything the world offers, but without My Son, he has nothing! There is no peace, no happiness without your God. You cannot shut Him out, for satan is always waiting to claim your soul.” – Our Lady, May 30, 1972

THE MAJOR DOWNFALL
"My children, you must retire now from a world that has been given to satan. You must live now in the spirit. You must be in the world, but not of the world.
      "The major downfall in the House of God lies with the fact, My child, that the pastors prefer worldly living with world treasures, never counting the merits needed to enter the eternal Kingdom of God the Father. These merits are not gained by your gatherings of world treasures. They come from your heart. These hearts of Our pastors have been hardened. Their ears are clogged, My child; they do not listen. Their eyes are blinded, not seeing the miracles We send to open them.
      "Pastors, do you reject the Message from Heaven because you fear it? Or do you prefer to ignore it because it will expose your error?
      "Pride! False pride, My children, is the downfall of many. Cast aside this worldly pride! You have only one to face when you come over the veil: it is the judgment of the Eternal Father.
      "You owe, My children, no allegiance to man who offends the Eternal Father. The Commandments given by the Eternal Father must be followed." - Our Lady, October 6, 1975

YOU MUST BE DIFFERENT
"It is only when you are different, My child, that you are on the right road. When you join the world, then you will be on the wrong road. The world will reject you as they rejected My Son. Were you to join the world in their thoughts and their living habits, you would be accepted, but because you are not of the world but of the spirit, and you live in the spirit, you will be accepted by the Father in Heaven. This you must always remember. It is not the acclaim of the world that you will look for, but you will make your way slowly with perseverance to the Kingdom." - Our Lady, March 18, 1975

"TRUE GRACE ONLY COMES FROM HEAVEN"
"My children, many of your brothers and sisters are selling their souls to get to the head. What does it matter if you gain all of the world's graces--and they call them graces, but how they foul the supernatural! It is no grace, My children, to achieve worldly acclaim and fortune. True grace only comes from Heaven, the eternal Kingdom of your God.
"My children, many of these so-called gifts that man seeks upon earth--these gifts are from satan and the seed for his downfall, man's downfall. Satan has placed upon earth all manner of enticements to destroy and soil souls. Recognize, My children, the way of evil set by satan and the true way of the cross as given by the example of My Son." - Our Lady, April 1, 1978

"HE LOOKS INTO YOUR HEART"
"All mothers of the houses in the convents must watch who enters their homes, for satan has placed many within the convents to destroy them. Those who enter should not be counted by their intelligence, but by their hearts; for the Father has not chosen those of great intelligence and worldly acclaim to do His will. He knows, and He looks into your hearts." - St. Theresa, May 30, 1973

"THEY SEARCH NOT FOR THE TRUTH"
"There will be much woe and gnashing of teeth set upon the earth by the agents of 666, Lucifer. Because many minds have been poisoned by satan, scientists and men of power are deluded.
"Their minds have been clouded because they search not for the truth, but in greed and avarice they search for power and money, esteem, enslavement of their brothers. And for what? Each and every one of you must end your life upon earth at some time sooner or later. Tomorrow will be the end for many." - Jesus, August 14, 1979

SECRET SOCIETIES
"My child, I wish to clarify this with you: When I speak to you of these secret societies, know that there are many now. The numbers are far greater than you know that have entered into them. Some go as they think they have reached a place of esteem. Many have been baptized, destined for the Kingdom of the Father. However, warn them, My child, that they are in great danger of losing this precious gift. Recognize the deception within these societies. They do much good, but the evil, the true purpose beneath this good, is abominable, for it seeks to remove from among you God the Father and all knowledge of His Being.
"The saddest fact, My child, is this great army of satan seeks to destroy My Son's Church, and will use its own members to try to destroy. However, the foundation is My Son. It will never be destroyed. But the walls can crumble, and the numbers of souls lost will be counted in the many. For only a few will be saved!
"What have you to gain, My children, if you gain the whole world and lose your soul? Think! Ponder! Save your soul and the souls of those you love!" - Our Lady, September 7, 1974
