#38 PRIESTS
(PART I)
"HAVE WE KEPT, OUR
TASTE for personal prayer and meditation, for the breviary? And
how can we hope to give our activity full efficacy if we do not
draw from the interior fount of conversation with God those
choicest energies which He alone can give?"
-POPE PAUL VI, MESSAGE TO PRIESTS,
JUNE 30, 1968
HOLY HOUR
"The prayers that you have
conducted for the priesthood on the Sundays of your years upon
earth [see Holy Hour on reverse side] shall be counted at the time
when all of you shall go over the veil. Then you will rejoice with
all Heaven for the number of priestly souls that you have brought
back to the fold."
-Our Lady, September 27, 1986
KNEEL
"All honor must be given to My Son
in the Eucharist. Man must kneel. My Son's House is the House of
God and a house of prayer, and it must not be turned into a
meeting hall."
-Our Lady, July 25, 1979
BROKEN HEARTS
"Yes, My children, you must
continue to pray for your priests, your pastors. Many are
confused, filled with anxiety, not knowing which way to turn in
their troublesome life. Many are dying prematurely of broken
hearts."
-Our Lady, March 18, 1977
LILIES
"Clergy, followers of My Son, you
who have sought a vocation and ere graced to be chosen from among
mankind, will you not gather Our straying sheep? Will you not
gather My lilies from the field and give them the waters of life
for Us?"
-Our Lady, July 24, 1976
DISHONOR
"Do not be fooled, My child, by
those who have fouled their garments. We in the Kingdom have had
Our hearts wrenched by the knowledge that many of Our clergy have
destroyed their vocation. They have brought dishonor and
disrespect to their vocation. Pray for them, for Satan has set
himself to claim them. I am, My child, truly a Mother of great
sorrow!"
Our Lady, February 10, 1975
BASIC TRUTH
"Turn back now, for your judgment
will be far greater than those given to an ordinary man, for you
as a priest of God have been chosen by the Father to represent My
Son. And as such, your judgment for misleading and denying the
basic truth of your Faith will be far greater!"
-Our Lady, October 6, 1974
RATIONALIZING SIN
"In your country, My children, in
your seminaries
in the United States and Canada,
My children, and the world, you have professors now so steeped in
sin... they who call themselves My Son's chosen priests, they are
vile sons of Satan who are now rationalizing sin! There shall be
no rationalization placed upon sin. The commandments shall not be
looked at objectively and given to excuses, to reasoning to
condone sin!"
-Our Lady, October 2, 1976
BADGE OF HONOR
"A duly ordained priest in the
House of God shall not remove his habit. He shall not take the
badge of honor of his vocation from him. In doing thus, he
subjects his soul to contamination from worldly influence."
-Our Lady, March 25, 1973
COMMUNION IN THE HAND
"My Son is not pleased with the
manner in which His Body and Blood is being given to all of the
humans upon earth. Communion in the hand has not been, and will
not be accepted by Heaven. This is a sacrilege in the eyes of the
Eternal Father, and must not be continued, for you only add to
your punishment when you continue on in the ways that have been
found to be unpleasing to the Eternal Father."
-Our Lady, June 30, 1984
PARISH CHURCH
"I have asked you once, I have
asked you again, My children, not to abandon your parish churches.
It is the plan of Satan to shut the doors. Remember, My children,
and I repeat again, that My Son is with you in the Eucharist. He
is present with you in Body and Spirit. He will be brought to you
by a legally-ordained priest, a man of God."
-Our Lady, March 25, 1978
HELL
"My child, I have to tell you in
all truth, that there are many priests who have gone to hell
because too few prayed for them; and they did not accept the road
to penance, dedication, and truth."
-Our Lady, June 6, 1987
NO PASSPORT
"Understand, My children, you do
not pray enough for your priests! They too are human, and are
subject to error and the deceits of Satan. They too can lose their
souls to Satan unless you pray for them and do penance for them
and make sacrifices for them. They do not have a special passport
to Heaven, My children. They have to fight along the road filled
with many thorns as you do."
-Our Lady, September 7, 1977
INSTRUMENT
"You ask, My child, about the
state of soul of the priesthood. This, My child, is not for you to
question or judge. A human being he is, yes. Subject to error,
yes. Subject to fall, yes. But still during the Consecration, and
when he hears you in the confessional, the Holy Spirit comes down
upon him, using him as an instrument to bring absolution to you."
-Our Lady, October 6, 1973
MOCK
"I want you to stress, My child,
the existence of hell and purgatory. It has been forgotten by
many. Even the priests in My Son's churches have overlooked this
essential knowledge. In fact, some now mock it as being untrue."
-Our Lady, June 18, 1990
COMMON MAN?
"I admonish you now that you are
not to set yourselves in as a common man. When I chose you to
represent Me as a priest in My House - you are not to make
yourselves a common man, for you will not bring the souls into the
Kingdom by joining them in their sin. Yours must be a pure and
shining example. You must follow your vows of chastity and
poverty. Among you, We find little of this being practiced."
-Jesus, August 14, 1974
CORPORAL ACTS
"Selfishness abounding in the
hearts of many, and even in the hearts of the clergy. The corporal
acts of mercy' must be practiced by the clergy in My Son's House."
-Our Lady, September 7, 1979
OBEDIENCE DISTORTED
"Pray for your clergy. Obedience
has been distorted now to make them servants of those who are not
true rulers."
-Our Lady, June 18, 1979
INVENTORY
"All clergy must now do an
about-face, and take inventory on their own souls before they can
go forward in the light and gather the sheep that up to now, My
children, have been scattered."
-Jesus, August 21, 1976
PRIDE
"Pride, intellectual pride in the
House of God, is more a formidable barrier than outright
licentiousness! This barrier destroys! Strip yourselves of this
pride and arrogance. Return to your state of poverty of the body
and meekness of the soul! Unless you make yourselves like unto the
little children, you will not enter into the Kingdom."
-Our Lady, July I, 1974
NOVELTY
"Woe unto those pastors! Woe unto
the clergy who now set themselves up as leaders to confuse,
confound, and mislead! Novelty, My child, has been the ruination
of many souls. Change - why does mankind call always for change,
My child? Is not the test of time a certain guide for mankind? We
do not change to please mankind, but We set ourselves as examples
to bring mankind to his God."
-Our Lady, June 15, 1974
