Directive from Heaven - #447 - Kingdom of God, Part 2 given at to Veronica Lueken at Our Lady of the Roses Shrine at Bayside, New York

#477 – A Church in Darkness, Part 1

"Again the kingdom of heaven is like to a merchant seeking good pearls. Who when he had found one pearl of great price, went his way, and sold all that he had, and bought it." - St. Matthew 13:45-46

HEAVEN, HELL, PURGATORY
"Stand fast in the Faith. Keep the Faith in the hearts of those you love. Extend your charity of heart to all of your brothers and sisters throughout the world. Pray a constant vigilance of prayer.
    "The good Book of life and love, the Bible, will be a source of comfort to all, for it will dispel the confusion that is set upon many by misleading shepherds. Read your Books, and read them with prayer. Ask the Spirit of truth to guide you in your reading and you will not misinterpret the lines.
     "The Father sends the light of knowledge into the hearts of all who ask. Ask and you shall receive this light. Call upon the Holy Spirit to enlighten you on your pilgrimage throughout your world. None shall be lost except of his own free will.
     "My child, hasten to bring forth the truth in the Gospel Truth. The agents of hell seek to take the truth from among you. There is a hell, there is a purgatory, there is Heaven, the Kingdom of God." - Our Lady, October 2, 1974

READ THE BOOK OF LIFE
"Yes, My child, Our children must read the Book of life, the Bible, for knowledge is power. You will read in the spirit and ask the Eternal Father for guidance that you do not fall into the web of satan that will result in blindness and falling into error, casting aside the truth for invention, experimentation, humanism, modernism, and satanism.
"Man has cast aside the knowledge of the life eternal--the supernatural. He shall rationalize himself out of the Kingdom of God. Only too soon must he go across the veil and shall be rejected for his casting aside the truth.
"For those who have been given the light, My child, much is asked of them. They must pray for their sisters and brothers. Many must carry heavy crosses. Your suffering in the light leads to the Kingdom of Heaven and a crown--a crown, My child." - Our Lady, July 25, 1975

LIFE IS ETERNAL
"You have been warned, my sisters and brothers; you have been warned in the writings from the prophets. Why have you cast them aside, not recognizing the signs of your times?
    "I carried with me upon earth, my sisters, a little book of knowledge. Why can't you carry this with you--Imitation of the Christ?
     "Fair maidens do not blush, my sisters. They do not blush, for they know not embarrassment or sin. The purity, the beauty of purity, is gone forever from their lives. If you do not have purity of purpose in your worldly life, you cannot enter the Kingdom of light, the Kingdom of the Father, where purity reigns.
     "Is it not better, my sisters, to have to suffer to be different for just a little while upon your earth? Life is eternal in the Kingdom of God. Your life upon earth is but a short pilgrimage. Shall you give yourself to satan while on earth and be claimed by him over the veil? Is it not better, my sisters, to follow the rule: obedience with honor, not with dishonor to your God--obedience that is given with good and noble purpose and with truth.
     "You cannot be obedient to those who have given themselves to satan: destroyers of the rule, those who seek novelty and change. Change, my sisters? What need is there for change, when you have stood the test of time?" - St. Theresa, October 2, 1975

"DO NOT SUCCUMB TO THE EASY ROAD"
"Those who have been given the grace to know the truth, to retain the truth, must go forward as apostles of the latter days. Bring to your brothers and sisters the knowledge, with hope, of My Son's return.
"Do not succumb to the easy road, the wide road to your destruction, because you seek not the things, the graces of the spirit, but you run headlong fast through your world, through your short time, heading fast to eternity while you gather all of the pleasures and all of the material things of your world. And for what? You shall pass over the veil to your judgment the way you came in, with nothing of material value. You must gather your graces and store them now for your repatriation and your entrance into the eternal Kingdom of God the Father in Heaven." - Our Lady, September 7, 1976

ACTUAL PLACES OF EXISTENCE
"Understand, My children, that no man can judge his brother or sister. The Eternal Father is always the final judge. However, there are rules, regulations, and discipline that is even admitted in Heaven.
"My children, you must understand: hell, Heaven, purgatory are actual places of existence. They are the life eternal for mankind when he comes over the veil. Every man, woman, and child of the age of conscience must make the decision for himself what type of life he prefers in the hereafter. Will it be a life of glory and love in the eternal Kingdom of God, or, My children, will it be eternal damnation and suffering, weeping and gnashing of teeth in the fires of hell?" - Jesus, September 7, 1977

ADVERSITY THE SECRET TO PIETY
St. Theresa - "Graces are given in the most strange ways, my sister. You will learn to love adversity, for it is the secret to piety."
Veronica - I don't know if I repeated it, but it's very fresh in my mind that Saint Theresa has said that we should accept all adversity. We should look forward to even minor irritations, for they can be used as a point of grace, to receive grace that can be transferred to the suffering souls in purgatory. I understand that Theresa made it known to me that it is something that you will understand in time with practice. It is a simple way to Heaven. And Theresa also said now tonight and before, in the past, that you must be quite simple, childlike, in your approach to the world and on your way to Heaven, with the confidence of a child and a trust in the Father, accepting all in the will of God, giving your whole soul and human life into the will of God, accepting the Eternal Father as your guide as you would in a loving father.
Theresa says there is no reason to fear the Father in Heaven, for He is all-loving. All punishment that is given to mankind has been indirectly willed by mankind. He has made his own punishment because he has turned away from the direction, from the direction from God the Father. It is a form of just chastisement and cleansing; for over the veil you must be as pure and holy as an angel to enter the eternal Kingdom of God. - February 10, 1978

"I WARN YOU AS YOUR GOD"
"My child and My children, a long discourse will not be given by Me, for I am certain My Mother has made it known to you quite distinctly and clearly, and understandably to My clergy in particular, that there must be a major reversal of the present trend for innovation, change, and experimentation in My Church.
"My Father's House, His Church, is a house of prayer, meditation, and honor to man's God. Therefore, I object, as your God, to the manner in which you are seeking to change the plan from Heaven and making My House a meeting place, even including, in your quest for conversion, heretics, schismatics, and satanists. Clergy and the children of earth, I warn you as your God that you will not make any conversions that will stand the test of time by compromising the laws, the rules, and the plan of Heaven given to you throughout the ages of earth's time.
"The way to Heaven has been written in the Book of life, your Bible. We do not expect you to change it to please man, for man must change his ways that offend his God to please his God; for man must strive to be as perfect as God the Father to enter--in order to enter the Kingdom of God the Father. Therefore, you will not change the doctrines or go about with itching ears listening to theologians who have become now bloated with pride and arrogance and now seek to make man a god in his own world. But remember: every man, woman, and child upon earth will leave his body sooner or later, for he must die and pass over the veil for judgment." - Jesus, August 4, 1979

KINGDOM OF GOD WILL BE TRIUMPHANT
"Many manifestations will be given to bear witness to the reality of My visit to your grounds. Many instruments of Heaven have been chosen to bring the word in this battle of the spirits. The word of God shall be forever. The Kingdom of God will be triumphant over the darkness. However, these are the Days of days, and the battle rages." - Our Lady, March 18, 1974

LUCIFER WAS CAST FROM THE KINGDOM
"You must understand that no man, or woman, or child of conscionable age will be gathered by satan unless it is of his own free will, for he has rejected grace and given himself to satan. He has disobeyed all of the laws of the most high God in Heaven. And there is a penance for disobedience, as there was a penance when the angels, the highest angels of Heaven, and Lucifer himself was cast from the realm of the Kingdom of God for his disobedience and arrogance.
"So, too, My children, can We not accept you in if you place yourself with satan. It is the way of the Eternal Father that Heaven shall be won by merit and obedience to God, not to man." - Jesus, August 13, 1977

GAINED THROUGH MERIT AND GRACE
"Your world is in deep darkness of spirit. The abyss is open wide and the souls are falling fast into eternal damnation. Born of a free will, you will make your own choice. The Kingdom of Heaven was made for all, but only many have chosen it. The Kingdom of Heaven must be gained through merit and grace. You have been given the way. My Mother has been sent among you as a Mediatrix. Her words must not be taken lightly." - Jesus, December 28, 1974

PRAYER AND WORKS
"The knowledge of the supernatural, My child, has been taken from the hearts of mankind. Mankind must understand there is no death. Life goes on over the veil. However, your destiny is in the hands of the Father Eternal.
"You, on your pilgrimage throughout your lifetime on earth, must work, My children, to enter the Kingdom of Heaven. You must pray and work. They are hand in hand a benefit to your spirit.
"Your works must include good heart to others. If you care, My child, you will understand and not have to force any of your actions, for they will come to you spontaneously." - Jesus, June 18, 1975

"PICK UP YOUR CROSS AND FOLLOW ME"
"My child and My children, for all who seek to enter the Kingdom of Heaven, much will be expected of them. The road to Heaven will have many thorns. The cross will grow heavy, but you will pick up your cross and follow Me on that road." - Jesus, September 14, 1979

ETERNAL KINGDOM OF HEAVEN
"My child and My children, wear your sacramentals as given from Heaven. You must eat of My Body and drink of My Blood in the Eucharist or you cannot have the light within you, for I am the light and the way. He who is not with Me is against Me! I am the light and the way! You cannot serve the world and serve God the Father, in the Son and the Holy Spirit. You cannot join the Trinity if you are trying to serve the world. For many are selling their souls to get to the head.
"Our world in the Eternal Kingdom of Heaven is of the spirit. It is not of the body. It is of the life that lives forever within you, even with the death of your human body--your spirit, the real you, that must sooner or later come over the veil and enter into your eternal reward. No man, woman, or child shall fall into hell unless he wills it of his own accord. Many spend countless years in purgatory because there are so few who are willing to do penance or pray for them." - Jesus, September 14, 1979

PERSEVERE
"Though you may stand alone, persevere, My children, to the end, and the Kingdom of Heaven will be yours.
"Fight not among yourselves. Just pray, for you are all brothers. Satan seeks to separate My children with discord. Heed not his diabolical plan that blinds you to the truth. Sacrifice your pride, your avarice, your greed. Be humble in heart, for only as little children shall you enter the Kingdom." - Our Lady, July 15, 1970

"THE ROAD SHALL NOT BE AN EASY ONE"
"Many are selling their souls to get to the head. Satan is in My Son's House now. No evil is ever triumphant; however, the Eternal Father permits this trial to mankind and the Church for the separation of the sheep from the goats. In this trial all that is rotten shall fall.
"The children of light shall go forward with great perseverance, knowing that they will carry a heavy cross. For no man shall enter the Kingdom of Heaven unless he picks up his cross and follows My Son. The road shall not be an easy one, My children. It will be filled with thorns amid the roses. However, as you progress in sanctity, you will find, My children, that you will relish this opportunity through suffering to gain graces that may be applied to the salvation of another soul. When many graces are given to a human being much is expected of him.
"The Eternal Father is in full control of what is happening upon earth. As man has been given a free will, in this manner shall he be tried and tested." - Our Lady, May 3, 1978

ETERNAL JOY, PEACE AND HAPPINESS
"My children, if you would only try and pray, and I say search for knowledge of the truth, of the existence of the supernatural, you will avoid many pitfalls and save many souls. Because man now has rejected the truth and has turned away from the teachings of his God, he is left now to his own diversions, and he has found satan.
"My children, I have counseled you in the past that you are now passing through a period of trial and test. It is in this manner that the Eternal Father has planned to separate the sheep from the goats. Will you be lost to Heaven or will you stay with perseverance on the narrow road that leads to the Kingdom of Heaven, eternal joy, peace, and happiness?" - Our Lady, June 9, 1979

HERESY AND APOSTASY ABOUND
"My child and My children, I do not intend to start a long discourse to enlarge upon My Mother's direction. Needless to repeat, the warnings given in the past years of My Mother's appearing upon your earth must be acted upon now.
"I command you as your God to change your life for the better by rejecting all form of deviation and sin. The Eternal Father can no longer tolerate or wait for your repentance. There will be set upon your world a great trial. All who have rejected the Message from Heaven shall suffer, and many will be lost.
"Because of the arrogance and pride of My clergy, many of Our sheep, Our children, are lost to the Kingdom of Heaven. Many mitres are destined for the abyss. Heresy and apostasy abounds upon earth." - Jesus, June 18, 1979

ONLY ONE OBLIGATION
"Do not be led away from the truth. You have only one obligation, and this is to your God, not man. You will lead your soul on the path to the Kingdom of Heaven. It is a narrow road, and you cannot bargain with satan.
"Remember, My child, keep the knowledge of the light, the truth, in your heart and pass this knowledge to your brothers and sisters. My Son was sacrificed for you. How many have remembered this?
"There are, My child, many mysteries of the Faith. They cannot be made, made fully known to you at this time. Much must be hidden, for then it would be no longer sacred, My child. No human mind can fathom or conceive the true meaning of the existence of the Father in the Son and the Holy Ghost. It is far beyond the human mind to understand. This knowledge will be given to all when they pass beyond the veil. Make it known, My child, to the world: there is no death of the soul. The human body will be temporarily separated from the soul. At the end of time, both will be reunited for the glorification of the Father." - Our Lady, June 8, 1974

ONE TRUE CHURCH
"My child and My children, you are all My children. I judge you not by color or race, and I do not judge you by your creed; however, should the knowledge of the One True Church be given to you, and the way to Heaven along the narrow road be given to you, you will follow it or you will be rejected." - Our Lady, August 21, 1985

BEAUTY OF BEAUTIES
"My poor children, hopeless of heart, know now that the future after the cleansing will be glorious, far more glorious than your human mind could ever conceive. Beauty of beauties! Emotion superb! The fulfillment of every desire that man could conceive on earth will be yours in the Kingdom. Is this, My children, what you will discard for the few short earthly years given to you, as you run about aimlessly seeking the pleasures of your world and the riches, willing to close your hearts and your ears to the truth? Many have chosen this path, for they find to shut out the truth will take the conscience, God-given to them, away. How mistaken they are! They cannot run from the Spirit." - Our Lady, March 18, 1973
