The Choice Has Been Made

Ora ana cara liya kanggo njlèntrèhaké iku kajaba abot oppressive. Aku lungguh ing kono, mbungkuk ing bangku, nyoba ngrungokake wacan Misa ing Minggu Rahmat Ilahi. Kaya-kaya tembung-tembung kasebut nggegirisi lan nggegirisi.

I finally pleaded with the Lord: “What is this heaviness, Jesus?” And I sensed Him say in my interior:

The hearts of this people have grown hard: Because of the increase of evildoing, the love of many has grown cold (cf. Matt 24:12). My words no longer pierce their souls. They are a stiffnecked people as at Meribah and Massah (cf. Ps 95:8). This generation has now made its choice and you are about to live through the reaping of those choices…

My wife and I were sitting in the balcony — not a place we normally go, but today it was as though the Lord wanted me to see something. I leaned forward and looked down. The Cathedral was half-empty on this, the Feast of Mercy — emptier than I’d ever seen it. It was an exclamation point to His words that, even now — even with the world on the brink of nuclear conflict, economic meltdown, a global famine, and another “pandemic” — souls were not seeking His mercy and the “ocean of graces” ^[1]Diary St. Faustina, n. 699 that He was offering on this day.^[2]ndeleng Pangarep-arep Paling Kaslametan

I recalled again His heart-wrenching words to St. Faustina:

Aku ora pengin ngukum manungsa sing lara, nanging aku kepengin nambani, kanthi nempet ing Ati Sing Maha Welas. Aku ngukum siksa yen dheweke meksa nindakake perkara iku; Tanganku ora gelem nyekel pedhang keadilan. Sadurunge Dina Kehakiman, aku ngirim Dina Rahmat… Aku manjangan wektu welas asih demi [wong dosa]. Nanging bilai wong-wong mau yen ora ngerti wektu kunjunganku iki ... - Yesus menyang St Faustina, Welas asih Ilahi ing Nyawaku, Buku Harian, n. 126I, 1588

While God’s mercy never ends, it seems to me He is saying that “the time of mercy” is now ending. When? How long do we have since we know we’ve been on borrowed time?

The Warning Phase

Indeed, the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing His plan to his servants the prophets. (Amos 3: 7)

When God desires to warn mankind, He calls forth prophets or watchmen, often through a profound encounter that gets their attention.

In their “one to one” encounters with God, the prophets draw light and strength for their mission. Their prayer is not flight from this unfaithful world, but rather attentiveness to The Word of God. At times their prayer is an argument or a complaint, but it is always an intercession that awaits and prepares for the intervention of the Savior God, the Lord of history. -Katekismus Gréja Katulik, n. 2584.

There is an urgency that the prophet feels when God gives Him a word to impart. The word nglakoake in his soul, Burns in his heart, and even becomes a burden until it is spoken.^[3]cf. Jer 20:8-10 Without this grace, most prophets would be inclined to simply doubt, procrastinate, or even bury the word “for another time.”

The urgency the prophet feels is not indicative, however, of the caket of the prophecy; it is merely the propellant to spread the word to the Body of Christ and even the rest of the world. When exactly that word reaches fulfillment, or whether it will be mitigated, postponed or cancelled, and how many years or even centuries there will be after the prophet first speaks it, is known only to God — unless He reveals it (eg. Gen 7:4, Jonah 3:4). Moreover, there has to be time for the word to reach people.

This writing apostolate began some 18 years ago. It has taken many years for the message here to reach across the world, and even then, to a mere remnant.

The Fulfillment Phase

The fulfillment phase often comes “like a thief in the night.”^[4]1 Thess 5: 2 There is little or no warning, for the time of warning has passed — putusan kasebut is in. God, who is love and mercy itself, always waits until either justice requires Him to act, or there is such hardness of heart, only chastisement is left as an instrument of mercy.

For the Lord disciplines him whom He loves, and chastises every son whom He receives. (Ibrani 12: 6)

Often the first stage of this chastisement is the individual, region, or nation simply reaping what has been sown.

… Aja nganti kita ujar manawa Gusti Allah sing ngukum kita kanthi cara iki; Kosok baline, yaiku wong sing nyiyapake dhewe ukuman. Ing kabecikan Gusti Allah ngelingake lan nimbali kita menyang dalan sing bener, nalika ngurmati kebebasan sing diwenehake marang kita; mula wong sing tanggung jawab. –Sr. Lucia, one of the Fatima visionaries, in a letter to the Holy Father, May 12th, 1982

I have no doubt that the “seals” of Revelation are not only man-made but are deliberate. This is why Our Blessed Mother warned at Fatima of the consequences of letting the errors of Freemasonry, (ie. “errors of Russia”) to spread across the world. This “beast” that is rising out of the sea uses smooth words and catchphrases like “build back better” and “Great Reset” to hide its intentions of creating order out of chaos (ordo ab lam). This is, in a sense, “God’s punishment” — as much as the “prodigal son” was permitted to reap what he had sown through his rebellion.

God… is about to punish the world for its crimes, by means of war, famine, and persecutions of the Church and of the Holy Father. To prevent this, I shall come to ask for the consecration of Russia to my Immaculate Heart, and the Communion of reparation on the First Saturdays. If my requests are heeded, Russia will be converted, and there will be peace; if not, she will spread her errors throughout the world, causing wars and persecutions of the Church. The good will be martyred; the Holy Father will have much to suffer; various nations will be annihilated. -Pesen Fatima, Vatikan.va

I do not know the Lord’s schedule for this Triumph. But the “now word” today is very clear: humanity has collectively rejected Christ, His Church, and the Gospel. What remains before Dina Keadilan seems to me to be one last act of mercy — a worldwide Warning that will at once bring home many prodigal sons and daughters… and sift the weeds from the wheat.

Sadurunge aku teka dadi Hakim sing adil, aku bakal dadi luwih dhisik minangka Raja Rahmat. Sadurunge tekan Dina Kaadilan, bakal diwenehi tandha ing swarga kaya ngono: Kabeh lampu ing swarga bakal dipateni, lan bakal ana pepeteng ing saindenging jagad. Banjur, tandha salib bakal katon ing langit, lan saka lawang ing ngendi tangan lan sikil Juruwilujeng bakal dipaku bakal dadi lampu gedhe sing bakal menehi cahya ing bumi kanggo sawetara wektu. Iki bakal kelakon sadurunge dina terakhir. -Yesus menyang St. Faustina, Buku harian Rahmat Ilahi, Buku harian, n. 83

Make Haste to Be in a State of Grace

We have reached a point where we must be ready to meet the Lord at any moment. Dozens of times throughout the messages to American seer Jennifer, Jesus calls people to be ready to stand before Him “in the blink of an eye.”

My people, the time of warning that has been foretold is soon to come to light. I have patiently pleaded with you, My people, yet too many of you continue to give yourselves to the ways of the world… This is a time when My faithful are being called to deep prayer. For in the blink of an eye you may be standing before Me… Do not be like the foolish man who waits for the earth to begin to rock and tremble, for then you may perish… —Jesus allegedly to Jennifer; Tembung Saka Gusti Yesus, Juni 14, 2004

Nuclear-armed jets are being deployed over the earth as leaders threaten annihilation of one another. “ahli” are warning that a pandemic ‘100 times worse than COVID’ is already circulating in the United States. World-renowned virologist, Dr. Geert Vanden Bossche, has warned that we are entering a “hyper-acute crisis” among highly-vaccinated populations and we will soon see “a massive, massive tsunami” of illness and death among them. lan atusan yuta face starvation with hiperinflasi and a growing global food crisis.

At some point, we are going to pass through this Storm… and it appears sooner than later.

When asked about the Third Secret of Fatima, Pope John Paul II told a group of pilgrims:

Yen ana pesen sing ujar manawa samudra bakal banjir kabeh bagean ing bumi; manawa, saka siji wektu nganti liyane, mayuta-yuta wong bakal tiwas… ora ana gunane maneh kanggo nerbitake pesen rahasia [telu] iki [Fatima]… - mangsa adoh; pacoban sing bakal mbutuhake kita siap kanggo nyerah malah urip kita, lan peparingé total kanggo Kristus lan kanggo Kristus. Liwat pandonga lan pandonga, bisa nyuda kasusahan iki, nanging ora bisa dicegah maneh, amarga mung kanthi cara iki Gréja bisa dianyari kanthi efektif. Kaping pira, pancen, nganyari maneh Gréja wis ditindakake kanthi getih? Wektu iki, maneh, ora bakal liya. Kita kudu kuwat, kita kudu nyiapake awake dhewe, kita kudu pasrahake awake dhewe marang Kristus lan Ibune, lan kudu ati-ati, ati-ati banget, kanggo pandonga Rosario. — PAUS JOHN PAUL II, wawancara karo umat Katolik ing Fulda, Jerman, Nopember 1980; "Banjir lan Geni" dening Fr. Regis Scanlon, ewtn.com

I suppose what I am saying is that there is little if any time left to even alleviate this tribulation. Collectively, the choice has been made to eject God from the public square. This should be obvious to all. Still, “we know partially and we prophesy partially… we see indistinctly, as in a mirror” (1 Cor 13:9, 12).

Nor is all lost. These labor pains are not the end but the beginning of a coming new birth, a new Era Damai.

Pungkasane, Heart Immaculateku bakal sukses. Rama Suci bakal nyucekake Rusia kanggo aku, lan dheweke bakal diowahi, lan wektu tentrem bakal diwenehake marang jagad iki. - Pembuatan Fatima, Vatikan.va

Ya, mukjizat dijanjekake ing Fatima, mukjizat paling gedhe ing sejarah jagad, mung nomer loro ing kiamat. Lan mukjizat kasebut bakal dadi jaman perdamaian sing durung nate diwenehake sadurunge marang donya. —Cardina Mario Luigi Ciappi, October 9th, 1994 (papal theologian to John Paul II, Pius XII, John XXIII, Paul VI, and John Paul I); Katekisme Kulawarga Apostolik
