#229 - Temptation

"And going out, he went, according to his custom, to the mount of Olives. And his disciples also followed him. And when he was come to the place, he said to them: Pray, lest ye enter into temptation." - Luke 22: 39-40

ALWAYS BE AWARE
"My children upon earth, you must always be aware of temptation and the possibility of falling into the web of evil spun by satan to ensnare you.” - Jesus, June 4, 1977

DO NOT SUBJECT YOURSELF
“Do not become unevenly yoked. Do not subject yourselves or your children to sources of temptation and evil. Birds of a feather will always flock together. Learn by this lesson, My children.” - Jesus, June 4, 1977

TESTED CONSTANTLY
"My children, you must understand: you cannot avoid coming in contact with temptation and evil. As long as you are upon earth and in the battle of mankind, you will be tested constantly and tempted. That is the greatest battle that mankind has to look forward to in the days ahead, the battle of the spirits; and from this conflagration will come many saints of the latter days.” - Jesus, June 4, 1977

OCCASIONS OF SIN
"I ask you all, My children, not to test yourselves against satan. You must avoid all occasions of sin and temptation, for no man shall be free from temptation while he remains in human flesh.
     "My Mother shall continue to guide and counsel you in the days remaining. Assist Her, I ask you, as children of light. Follow Her direction. Many graces shall be given for the promotion of Her mission." - Jesus, June 10, 1978

“ACCEPT IT AS PENANCE”
"My child, you will be subject to much temptation. You will pray a constant vigilance of prayer. Accept all that is adverse to your human nature; accept it as penance, My child. All suffering shall be given for a reason. Accept it, My child, without complaint, and you will find the road much easier for you.” - Our Lady, December 24, 1976

ALWAYS ABOUT YOU
"O My children, the reward is great in Heaven for all who will persevere in the days ahead. Remember, be prudent and say, My Jesus, my confidence when you are tempted. Temptation is always about you. Satan works through the material, and satan will come into your mind to influence your will.
     "My children, it will become evident to you all why My Mother counseled you in the past to avoid all occasions of sin. And sin through the senses of sight is one of the major obstacles confronting mankind in the days ahead. Man has given himself over to pleasures of the flesh far beyond what is safe for the salvation of his soul. Fornication and all manners of desecration to your body, the temple of your spirit, the temple of your God, the light in you--this light has been extinguished by sin.” - Jesus, June 18, 1977

PRAY FOR YOUR PRIESTS
"Pray for your priests. Many are on the road to perdition and are taking many souls with them by their bad example. Remember, My children, your priest is a human being and subject to temptation in his human nature.” - Jesus, June 18, 1977

PAGAN DRESS
"Parents, have you lost your reasoning? You allow your children to disport themselves as pagans, even in My House, setting temptation to all by the manner of pagan dress and also disporting yourselves with equal depravity.” - Jesus, May 26, 1979

NO SPECIAL PASSPORT
"My child and My children, We have asked you on numerous occasions to pray for the clergy. They do not have a special passport from Heaven. They fight the influence of satan and his agents upon earth, but they need your prayers. You have forgotten them. They need your prayers. I ask of you all to pray for your parish priests. Temptation is great upon them; however, they are being put to the test by the Eternal Father, and all who are rotten will fall." - Our Lady, June 18, 1993

POPE JOHN PAUL II
"Pray, My child. Perform many acts of mortification. Pray for your Holy Vicar. Pray that he will have the strength to resist temptation and have the strength to fight for his Faith. Remind him to remember the path of Hyacinth.” - Our Lady, December 7, 1978

ALL CARDINALS AND BISHOPS
"All cardinals and bishops will go down on their knees and pray for the recovery of the fallen souls in their care. Many Red Hats have succumbed to the temptations of the flesh. Many Purple Hats are following suit. All travel the wide road into darkness and eventual damnation. They will turn now and make restitution now, while there is time.” - Jesus, October 2, 1972

WEB OF SATAN
"The balance is heavy to the left. Sin has put a heavy cross upon the world. War is a punishment for man's sins! The Father does not bring destruction upon man. Man has brought this destruction upon himself because he has turned from the Father and fallen into the web of satan, succumbing with free will to the temptations of the flesh, for worldly gain and the love of pleasure." - Our Lady, October 6, 1973

FACES OF EVIL
"My children, satan has taken from your minds and your hearts the reality of the world to come beyond the veil. In this manner, he gives you all the delights that pamper your human nature, making you succumb to the temptations of the flesh. Therefore, recognize the faces of evil among you. Do not follow like sheep to the slaughter. In your hearts, if you do not fall from the road and remain close to My Son in His House--come to Him often for counsel, and you will not be led astray by the agents of the prince of darkness who now roam throughout your world.
     "My heart bleeds as a Mother for the youth of your land and the world, for they are truly the suffering victims of their elders, of poor example in the homes, poor example in the governments of your country and the world, and poor example in the House of My Son. What more can We do? My Son knows no answer but to bring an end to your era.” - Our Lady, October 6, 1973

FRAILTIES OF HUMAN NATURE
"I have come to you as a Mediatrix between God and man. I have come to you because the Eternal Father in the Trinity has deemed that I come forward; because I, too, know the frailties of human nature, the obstacles on your road to Heaven, the temptations, and the sins of the flesh that are sending many now fast into hell.” - Our Lady, July 14, 1979

“I AM NOT UNAWARE OF YOUR PROBLEMS”
"There are upon your earth now many voice-boxes from Heaven. I have come to you, My children, in numerous places and to many people throughout your world. The Father has sent Me to you as a Mediatrix.
     "I Who knew the temptations of the world had to fight and struggle as you do, My children, for I am not unaware of your problems. But I have set before you the plan for your salvation. Of free will many have tossed My words, not harkening, aside. They steep themselves in deceit and the pleasures of the flesh, all of a temporal nature, casting aside the truth in knowledge that all life upon your earth must one day come to an end.
     "You all, as human creations of the Father, must return to your Creator and you will be judged as the seed you have sown, as it has flourished and grown a true, straightened stalk with pure waters, a credit to your Creator, in the battle against satan. But, no! Many of you have become weak. You have chosen to go onto the wide road, preferring the pleasures of the flesh and the gain of worldly goods.
     "You will be taken from your earthly life as you entered it, with nothing but the graces you have accumulated or rejected, in your lifetime upon earth. Are you, My children, prepared for this? Have you prepared yourselves and your children? Many of you will not be allowed beyond the years that you expect. You do not know the day nor the hour.” - Our Lady, July 1, 1974

DIABOLICAL TEMPTATIONS
"You will keep a constant vigilance. All manner of diabolical temptation shall be set upon those who are destined to become the children of their God in the eternal Kingdom. As you travel on the narrow road to the Kingdom do not slacken, do not let down your guard, for you will find that the closer you approach the eternal Kingdom, the more you will be attacked by satan. His frustration--in his frustration, My children, to claim your souls, he will send all manner of aggressors to you. So watch and pray much. Pray that your children do not become victims.” - Jesus, December 24, 1975

DO NOT SUCCUMB
“The more you will go out into the world, the less you will be of the spirit.
     "My child, do not succumb to any worldly temptation. You must follow My direction very carefully, My child, or you will set upon yourself great suffering.” - Our Lady, August 14, 1975

AVOID THE PITFALLS
"Your life, your eternal life and eternity faces all. You must now, in the time given, make your way back to Heaven. Avoid the pitfalls that satan has placed now to ensnare you with. They are tempting to your human body and human nature, but you must fight these temptations. Avoid all occasions of sin.” - Jesus, February 1, 1978

FAR GREATER
"You must all pray for your bishops, your cardinals, and your pastors. It is like an illness among them now going from one to the other. They will have to accept their fate . . . not to take themselves away from the Church, My Church, My children. We do not want satan to close the doors. You must remain in your parish and stand there as an example as you speak with the priests and the cardinals and the bishops. You must keep your courage up and bring forth as witnesses, disciples of the latter days--you must go forward and try to save your brothers, those in the clergy. So few do pray for the clergy. The general idea, My child, is that they have a special passport to Heaven. But that is not true. Their temptations are far greater than yours. Therefore, they are to be pitied. For hell opened up would show unto you the numbers of mitres that have fallen in the past earth-years.” - Jesus, April 14, 1984

PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN
"I have warned you all to protect your children. I come to you as a Mother. So few can understand My role throughout life on earth. I, too, know, My children, all of your hardships, your sorrows, and the temptations from satan. For I, too, was upon your earth, My children; this you have forgotten. I am not unapproachable, as some think, because I was as one of you until the Eternal Father lifted Me up into Heaven.” - Our Lady, September 7, 1985

THROUGH THE MIND
Veronica - Our Lady says that all must now read their Bible. If you follow the writings of John, you will not be lost in the occurrences that lie before you. Parents must bring the Book of truth and life, the Bible, to their children. Their children now are being destroyed with literature created by satan--infiltration through the mind. - March 25, 1973

"YOU  CAN  BE  CONDITIONED"
"Have pity for all men of sin. Have pity for those who represent My Son and are falling into the web of deceit of satan, for they will be answerable to Us more so, for they were given the graces to fight this.
     "What is the darkness, you ask Me, My child. The darkness is a blindness of heart. Yes, you can be conditioned to accept error; you can be conditioned to turn from the truth. You can be conditioned to be confused and no longer recognize the truth. You have a free will to go your own way." - Our Lady, June 17, 1971 

MIND IS THE  FOCAL ENTRANCE POINT
"My child, as We look upon the deepening darkness of earth, the spirits of darkness that cover your world, We look into your books of knowledge and find many of your earth words--chastity, piety, goodness--being removed. All the creations of satan to seduce you and take you down into the bottomless pit are being placed at your disposal.
     "Return the monuments to My House."
     Veronica - Jesus is pointing. Jesus says:
     Jesus - "The statues, the monuments must be returned to the House of God. For what enters through the eyes and the mind leads to contamination or edification of the spirit. Keep pure and holy thoughts entering your mind, for it is also the focal point of entrance for the evil spirits." - Jesus, November 24, 1973 

PURE  AND  HOLY  THOUGHTS
"Remember, My children, to keep pure and holy thoughts in mind, for your mind is the main point of entry of the evil one. Yes, one stands on each side ready to enter you.
     "This war is on! In war all barriers can be cast down. The evil one uses the foulest schemes. It is to degrade and destroy. He is cunning, often parading as an angel of light. Unless you have the light of grace, you will be blind to the truth. How will you recognize them? You will be led to become confused between right and wrong, until darkness, blindness, carries you off--another victim.
     "Keep the armor on you--your Rosary, your crucifix around your neck, or you, too, will receive the stamp of the man of perdition." - Our Lady, May 30, 1971 

RATIONALIZING  SIN
"Much, My children, you must accept in faith. Scientists of your world and your psychologists and psychiatrists rationalize everything, until sin is accepted as a way of life--scientists who are ever searching but never coming to the truth! The supernatural cannot be rejected, because if you reject the supernatural, you do not have the armor to fight it. It is a crafty plan of satan to make himself unknown, so that he may go among you, and destroying like a ravenous wolf." - Our Lady, December 7, 1977

UNSEEN WORLD
"Do not deny the fact that there is an unseen world about you. When you accept this fact, you can fight it. Satan can enter upon and claim and make an agent any human being who has fallen far from grace, be it a man, a woman, or a child. Therefore, recognize this fact, and disassociate yourselves from temptations and the ways of error set forth by these agents of satan. Recognize the faces of evil about you. Recognize the wolves in sheep's clothing.” - Our Lady, May 30, 1973

"HAPPINESS IS JESUS THE LORD"...
I wake up in the morning to face another day,
A day filled first with gladness,
For I have learned to pray.
I lift up my eyes to Heaven, and ask what can I do
To face another working day
Along the path to You?
Temptations are beside me, for me to cast aside;
For there has been a promise
To be Your loving bride.
I open wide the door, steadfastly on my way,
To give and take the worst and best
With every passing day.
My mission fills my heart,
There is no room for fear,
I’ll always tell the story
Of when you came so near.
They’ll never quite believe me,
Though what I say is true
That all these visions that I saw,
Were gifts that came from You!

- Occulations from Heaven, St. Theresa, August 3, 1968
