...In reference to Christianity, God himself is the ultimate mystery. Radically, God is completely other and transcendent, hidden from man in his inner life, unless he chooses to reveal himself. Let us briefly look at this inner life of God.

    The Father, in a perfect act of self-expression, in a perfect act of knowing, generates his son. The Son, the Word, is, then, the immanent expression of God's fullness, the reflection of the Father. Likewise, from all eternity, the Father and the Son bring forth the Holy Spirit in a perfect act of loving.

    At the destined moment in human history, God's self-expression, the Word, immersed himself into man's world. God's inner self-expression now had also become God's outer self-expression. Consequently, the mystery of God becomes the mystery of Christ. In Christ, God tells us about himself, about his inner life, about his plan of creation and redemption. He tells us how Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire to dwell within us in the most intimate fashion, how they wish to share with us their own life through grace. All this he has accomplished and does accomplish through Christ. St. Paul tells us: "I became a minister of this Church through the commission God gave me to preach among you his word in its fullness, that mystery hidden from ages and generations past but now revealed to his holy ones. God has willed to make known to them the glory beyond price which this mystery brings to the Gentiles—the mystery of Christ in you, your hope of glory. This is the Christ we proclaim while we admonish all men and teach them in the full measure of wisdom, hoping to make every man complete in Christ" (Col 1:25-28).

April 12, 2003 message continues

Messenger:             and our lives here creep on, as Jesus says, in

                                "petty pace".

                                And it was in seconds of thinking about

                            Arby's and other things and I went from

                            the car a cripple, unable to walk,

                            stand, use my hand, laugh, cough,

                            because of the pain. It took three

                            to help me to the restroom all the way

                            home.

                                Lights that flash in the night,

                            smoke in the car, the sound of

                            the voices "get out", "get out",

                            a blackness in the car and boxes of

                            envelopes of priestly mailing surrounding

                            me and now I felt my crippled hurt body

                            couldn't move — how to create a leverage

                            with a broken hand, a "bummed-up" foot and

                            a sternum that felt cracked. A seat came at

                            me, it felt 70 miles an hour and I thought I

                            heard my sternum crack. Just that day

                            I asked Jesus to give them a sign a

                            message was true. One following us

                            and any additional impact from behind

                            would have killed us. No one hit us from

                            behind, our church van landed on the

                            car that had hydroplaned and faced us which

                            was stopped dead in the left lane, hidden

                            behind the car immediately in front of us that swerved.

                                Only a half of box of letters to priests were

                            ruined out of about 15,000 completed envelopes.

                            None went up in smoke.

                                Oh the body is vulnerable. One minute

                            skipping, jumping, laughing, walking on my

                            own, the next — no use of the right foot, left

                            hand and the sternum felt cracked — wondering

                            how much the body could restrict us and cause

                            us pain.

Jesus speaks:     I was beaten for your sins, My neck ached, My

                            body burned and lacerated with the whips

                            of My attackers. I speak here and who

                            pays Me heed. I have given these two

                            messengers for your world and the Shepherds

                            of Christ and My son Fr. Carter has returned

                            home. My messenger is left here on this earth

                            crying out the message of My passion, the

                            sufferings concerning My beloved souls

                            who would be lost forever.

                                And you count your money, cold change in

                            your pockets, $70 is nothing at the golf

                            course. And who will listen to Me. You have

                            made money your god. The Egyptians would

                            not listen             —————              the Israelites 

                            spent 40 years in the desert             —————            

                            40 days I fasted for your sins —

                                You smite Me and I have sent you a

                            sign —

                                Money, money, money and not a drop to

                           tell the world My message.

                                I sent My Jesuit priest and he obeyed

                            and you fought him, you put him in

                            hiding, so few priests even went to his funeral

                            when he died, yet he wrote a Newsletter

                            for 75,000 priests he wrote regularly.

                                Oh you and your golf games, your

                            empty nests, your plan for your money

                            have murdered the unborn, this is the

                            beatings I suffered at the pillar to My

                            for, in the garden.

                                Oh passion — you complain of your

                            aches and pains. Listen to Me, I gave My

                            life for you. My souls are dropping into hell

                            like rain. Children are being taught at

Excerpt from April 4, 2003

Messenger:    I saw Him at the point of death on the cross December 5, 1996, after Mary appeared 500 times.

He hung, all battered, greatly weakened. His mouth moved very clearly. It seems that a man in His condition could not move His mouth to that extent.

Later in the rosary that night, He gave messages and said: "No one was listening."

Sacrifice

When I go to Mass I offer a sacrifice. God wants our all. He wants to be first in our life. He asked Abraham to sacrifice his son.

Gen. 22:1-2, 9-13, 15-18:

It happened some time later that God put Abraham to the test. "Abraham, Abraham!" he called. "Here I am," he replied. God said, "Take your son, your only son, your beloved Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah, where you are to offer him as a burnt offering on one of the mountains which I shall point out to you.

When they arrived at the place which God had indicated to him, Abraham built an altar there, and arranged the wood. Then he bound his son and put him on the altar on top of the wood. Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to kill his son.

But the angel of Yahweh called to him from heaven. "Abraham, Abraham!" he said. "Here I am," he replied. Do not raise your hand against the boy," the angel said. "Do not harm him, for now I know you fear God. You have not refused me your own beloved son." Then looking up, Abraham saw a ram caught by its horns in a bush. Abraham took the ram and offered it as a burnt offering in place of his son.

The angel of Yahweh called Abraham a second time from heaven. "I swear by my own self, Yahweh declares, that because you have done this, because you have not refused me your own beloved son, I will shower blessings on you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars of heaven and the grains of sand on the seashore. Your descendants will gain possession of the gates of their enemies. All nations on earth will bless themselves by your descendants, because you have obeyed my command.

The Father gave His Son for us. This is how great the Father's love is for us.

When we go to the altar many times we are suffering. We want something really bad, but we know we love God the most. What the Father asks for us is to offer that which we are so attached to as a sacrifice, united to the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus. If we offer this sacrifice to Him, the Father will pour out blessings that will be divine blessings, greater than anything we could have here on earth.

The Mass is the perfect sacrifice we offer to the Father, in which God pours out His blessings and we are one with Him and with all others in a profound expression of love. God shares His divine love with us and we partake in an intense way in His divine loving capacity. In order to become one in Him and to feel His love like this, we must surrender ourselves and be open.

He told Abraham to offer his son. God gave him his son back. He wanted Abraham to love God above all things and people.

Jesus offered Himself as a sacrifice to the Father. This is the most pleasing sacrifice to the Father. If He gave His Son Who died for love of us, will He deny us when we unite our petitions with Jesus and offer these at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass?

He took them to the highest mountain and He was transfigured before them in the greatest light.

Mark 9:2-10:

Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter and James and John and led them up a high mountain on their own by themselves. There in their presence he was transfigured: his clothes became brilliantly white, whiter than any earthly bleacher could make them. Elijah appeared to them with Moses; and they were talking to Jesus. Then Peter spoke to Jesus, "Rabbi," he said, "it is wonderful for us to be here; so let us make three shelters, one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah." He did not know what to say; they were so frightened. And a cloud came, covering them in shadow; and from the cloud there came a voice, "This is my Son, the Beloved. Listen to him." Then suddenly, when they looked round, they saw no one with them any more but only Jesus.

As they were coming down from the mountain he warned them to tell no one what they had seen, until after the Son of man had risen from the dead. They observed the warning faithfully, though among themselves they discussed what 'rising from the dead' could mean.

We go to the altar of sacrifice. The mountain to come, in which so many graces will flow, is the altar of sacrifice where the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is offered through the hands of consecrated priests.

We hear the Father say, "This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased, listen to Him." He is speaking to us. He is the Word. He is speaking in these messages. He is unveiling the Scriptures and speaking to us in plain talk. This is a great gift He is giving to us.

We are transformed in the Mass. We unite with the greatest sacrifice offered in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. We have the most perfect sacrifice to offer to the Father when we offer this sacrifice. He gives us great blessings. We die to ourselves, we become white.

We must unite all of our sacrifices to this Holy Sacrifice of the Mass being said all over the world. This is the greatest way to magnify all of our offerings - by uniting everything we do as an offering, a sacrifice to the Father in union with His Son.
