From (Mr.) IW @ US

An effective Deep State coup is all but a reality as seen by the evidence.

President Trump's cabinet is impotent. Much legislation is continually stalled. The Democrats are alike to the old Soviet machine. The Republicans are too. The Attorney General is impotent - he now pushes asset forfeiture to the highest level while increasing police state power.

Many people in all walks of life are driven by irrational phobia regarding the 'Russia' hoax. The Deep State has effectively paralyzed the administration. Except for a handful of journalists, the president stands alone against the mainstream media (MSM). Maybe even the recent White House press personnel change is evidence of the deep state's far reaching tentacles.
Although fair polls show many Americans support Trump, the deep state gets its' own message across very well. Is president Trump now almost totally alone?

The MSM itself is demonically driven and acts from fear. Individual members most likely are being blackmailed just as almost every other political authority in the government, Federal as well as State! The coup is almost complete. All it would take is a successful physical kinetic military coup d' etat - backed by the executive order alluding to "Continuity of Government" !!!

Has the Secret Service folded too? An assassination could be imminent. Obama is said to be waiting off stage with an army of activists and soldiers to affect such coup...

Our representatives in Congress and Senate show obvious signs; Chaffetz has folded/resigned. Gowdy supports the Constitution in silence only. Fienstein says with authority that Trump will resign - what does she KNOW?. The un-elected Democrat type minority rules! No voice against Clintons or Obama is allowed a leg to stand on. The only prosecution allowed seems to be on Trump...

Even Trump - in photos - looks haggard now in comparison to pre election pictures.

IW.

A. Thank you for sharing with all of us your views of what seems to be taking place. Before we comment on your letter I want to remind one and all - again - that we are not pro-Trump; we are strictly pro-God.

Your letter was written only four days ago and in those four days the "MSM vs Trump" and/or "Trump vs MSM" and/or "Trump vs Trump" battles have become much more intense.

As we have reminded the New York Times and Washington Post editors three times already - if they continue to push Mr. Trump against the wall, his personality type will snap and only God knows what he will do. The most logical scenario would be: Martial Law in the U.S. by Executive Order - no rumors, no conspiracies - it can be confirmed at the White House site.
With that said, let us go back nineteen years to the height of the Clinton-Lewinski scandal. What we saw the MSM do then is exactly what we are seeing now with the Trump-Russia alleged scandal.

In spite of the overwhelming evidence against Mr. Clinton they could not get him out of the White House. Why? Let Mr. Gorbachev tell us why (1):

Mikhail Gorbachev:

Yes, I met President Clinton in Madrid. My relationship with President Clinton was quite strained, if not downright tense. Of course, it was not because of Monica Lewinsky. I was highly critical of his foreign policy. He is guilty for the fact that the U.S. has wasted those ten years following the end of the Cold War.

Deal W Hudson:

What should he have done? How did he waste those years? Do you mean against terrorism?

Mikhail Gorbachev:

I think he missed out on opportunities to develop a new world order.

That was the reason God made sure - and we have over one hundred files to prove it - that Mr. Clinton remained in the White House.

Mr. Trump's upset election was through Divine intervention. He had to be elected President to precipitate the events which will conclude These Times, something that will also take place no matter who or what. In the Clinton case, God did not allow the MSM activities to interfere with His plans and now, it is no different so they will also take it to the limit.... and that is perhaps where it should be taken for the fulfillment of Divine plans.

Let us continue to pray because that is the only action that we can take to soften the blows upon the Elect.

Perhaps the following news report will convince one and all that the digital age insecurity is a reality and that we should all act accordingly.

Sweden Accidentally Leaks Personal Details of Nearly All Citizens (1)(2)

Who exposed the sensitive data? The Swedish government itself.

Swedish media is reporting of a massive data breach in the Swedish Transport Agency after the agency mishandled an outsourcing deal with IBM, which led to the leak of the private data about every vehicle in the country, including those used by both police and military.

The data breach exposed the names, photos and home addresses of millions of Swedish citizen, including fighter pilots of Swedish air force, members of the military's most secretive units, police suspects, people under the witness relocation programme, the weight capacity of all roads and bridges, and much more.

The incident is believed to be one of the worst government information security disasters ever.

..... What's the worrying part? The leaked database may not be secured until the fall, said the agency's new director-general Jonas Bjelfvenstam. The investigation into the scope of the leak is still ongoing.

Comment: Do we have to draw a picture? Call Daniel? If we have failed to get this point across to those on denial now, unless God intervenes, there is nothing else that we can do about it now.

In closing, let us not forget that....

God does not judge us based on our level of holiness. He judges us based on how hard we have tried to achieve that state without fanaticism.

The lord of that servant will come in the day that he hopeth not, and at the hour that he knoweth not, and shall separate him, and shall appoint him his portion with unbelievers. And that servant who knew the will of his lord, and prepared not himself, and did not according to his will, shall be beaten with many stripes. But he that knew not, and did things worthy of stripes, shall be beaten with few stripes. And unto whomsoever much is given, of him much shall be required: and to whom they have committed much, of him they will demand the more. [Luke 12:46-48]

Never forget the following parable offered by Jesus:

Two men went up into the temple to pray: the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. The Pharisee standing, prayed thus with himself: O God, I give thee thanks that I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, as also is this publican. I fast twice in a week: I give tithes of all that I possess.

And the publican, standing afar off, would not so much as lift up his eyes towards heaven; but struck his breast, saying: O God, be merciful to me a sinner. I say to you, this man went down into his house justified rather than the other: because every one that exalteth himself, shall be humbled: and he that humbleth himself, shall be exalted. [Luke 18:10-14]

As well as His very important reminder:

And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be humbled: and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted. [Matthew 23:12]

Draw closer to Him and you will be as secure and consoled as your could ever possibly be.

July 27th

From miguel de Portugal

Since the mid nineteenth century there has been a continual and clear reference, in all Marian Apparitions, to the apocalyptic nature of the times we are living in. This is the aspect of the Marian Messages which disconcerts and even scandalizes many, thus they are mostly ignored. But why should this apocalyptic nature surprise us? Are there not many signs which by now clearly indicate that we are indeed living in such times?

We invite the readers to reflect on some very significant words which His Holiness Pope Paul VI spoke in 1977, one year before his death, and which are recorded in the book, "The Secret Paul VI ", by Jean Guitton, pages 152 and 153 and Reference (7), p. ix.

"There is a great uneasiness, at this time, in the world and in the Church, and that which is in question is the faith. It so happens now that I repeat to myself the obscure phrase of Jesus in the Gospel of St. Luke: 'When the Son of Man returns, will He still find faith on the earth?' It so happens that there are books coming out in which the faith is in retreat on some important points, that the episcopates are remaining silent and these books are not looked upon as strange. This, to me, is strange. I sometimes read the Gospel passage of the end times and I attest that, at this time, some signs of this end are emerging."

"Are we close to the end? This we will never know. We must always hold ourselves in readiness, but everything could last a very long time yet."

"What strikes me, when I think of the Catholic world, is that within Catholicism, there seems sometimes to predominate a non-Catholic way of thinking, and it can happen that this non- Catholic thought within Catholicism, will tomorrow become the stronger. But it will never represent the thought of the Church. It is necessary that a small flock subsist, no matter how small it might be". Pope Paul VI - 1977

So why should we be scandalized if Mary, Mother of the Word Incarnate, has been intervening in a very strong way to help Her children find their way back to God?

It seems now that whatever was left to be done to completely fulfill H.H. Paul VI prophecies is being accomplished by the man who most Catholics think is the Pope - Francis.

Let us now review.... some of those key Marian Apparitions:

La Salette - France 1846

Complaint: The people and the clergy have turned to the ways of the world.

Request: Return to Her Son and His laws.

Prophecy: Many of the worldwide calamities from that time and up to our current times were predicted.

World's Response: A basilica was built and a statue consecrated but no worldwide promotion of Marian devotions.

Lourdes - France 1858

Complaint: Indirectly, by the requests made.

Request: Penitence ! Pray to God for the conversion of sinners. Have a chapel built here.

Prophecy: Many physical and spiritual healings would result from the miraculous spring that She propitiated at the Apparition site.

World's Response: A huge sanctuary was built and, finally, large scale devotion to Our Lady begins to be promoted - first as a place to go to get physically healed, but now more as a vacation destination - not for a life changing experience.

Fatima - Portugal 1917/1929

Complaint: Do not offend the Lord our God any more. He is much offended.

Request: Pray the rosary daily. Consecrate Russia to Her Immaculate Heart. Stop offending Our Lord. Promote First Saturday of Reparation. Build a chapel here.

Prophecy: If Her requests are not heeded a worse war (than WW I) will take place (WW II), Russia will spread its errors in large scale and... if people do not mend their ways there will be a horrible, horrible punishment...

World's Response: A large sanctuary was built, as requested, to promote devotion to Our Lady, but, what She specifically requested was not done exactly as per the instructions and scheduled by Heaven

Rosa Mystica - Italy 1947;1966/1976

Complaint: Loss of vocations. Religious and clergy living in mortal sin and betraying Jesus like Judas.

Request: Much penitence, prayer and expiation. Hour of Grace to be promulgated by Pope Pius XII. Cultivate Devotion to Her Immaculate Heart.

Prophecy: Our Lord is tired of so many offenses and sins against holy purity. He wants to send another punishment of the same magnitude as the Flood of Noah's time.

World's Response: No church-wide support. No recognition of the Hour of Grace. Mostly ignored by the hierarchy of the Church.

Garabandal - Spain 1961/1965

Complaint: 1. The cup is (on 1961) already filling up. 2. Since the message of 1961 has not been heeded, now (1965), the cup is flowing over.

Request: Must make sacrifices & perform much penance. Make this message widely known. Amend your lives.

Prophecy: "You should turn the wrath of God away by your efforts. Ask for forgiveness and He will grant it." [Implied prophecy : "If you do not change your ways and ask for forgiveness you will have to contend with wrath of God.] There will be a Warning and a Miracle (1).

World's Response: The laity has done much to promote the message without official Church support. The Church has not done much to promote the messages.

Akita - Japan 1973

Complaint: Many people in this world hurt the Lord. The action of the devil is going to infiltrate even the Church, to the extent that Cardinals will be opposing Cardinals, Bishops will be set against other Bishops.

Request: Say the Rosary [the correct translation is "Pray the Rosary"] every day. With the Rosary pray for the Pope, the Bishops and Priests. Pray continuously for the Pope, Bishops and Priests. I am seeking for souls to console Him.

Prophecy: "If people do not repent and do not improve, the Father will send a terrible punishment on the whole of humanity. This will be a more serious punishment than the Flood, worse than any there has ever been. A fire will fall from heaven and will annihilate a great part of humanity, the good with the evil, sparing neither priests nor the faithful. The survivors will find themselves in such desolation that they will envy the dead."

World's Response: There has been limited promotion of this message. Although it has the approval of the Sacred Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith most people are not aware of it.

San Nicolás - Argentina 1983/1990

Complaint: She quoted Ez 2:4-10. (We are hard headed and are not listening to messages of conversion).

Request: Listen to what the Lord expects from you through the Scriptures quoted. Go and preach everywhere. Build a large sanctuary here.

Prophecy: Many souls will be lost. [Our Lady is no longer acting to stop the chastisement because, as reflected in the two prophecies above, it is too late. Now it is a matter of praying for conversion to save souls and to reduce the severity of the chastisement.]

World's Response: The local hierarchy approved the execution of everything asked for by the Virgin Mary and, at the time of this writing, is proceeding with the building of the sanctuary. Had no support of Jorge Maria Bergoglio, know these days a Pope Francis.

Medjugorje - Yugoslavia/Bosnia 1981/1993

Complaint: The world has gone materialistic and is going to total perdition and ruin.

Request: Pray, fast, do penance and return to the Sacraments. Reconcile yourself with God and with one another. Hurry !

Prophecy: Great chastisement will come after a warning and a great miracle (1). "Hurry, hurry to convert, the time people have is short!" - She is exhorting us.

World's Response: The public response has been tremendous. It has become a favorite religious tourist destination just as Fatima and Lourdes have been for over a century. Most of the fruits can be seen in the profits generated by the travel industry. If the hundred of millions of visitors to those three Sanctuaries had paid attention to what Mary has requested, over and over again, and heeded Her, the world would not be the amoral sewer it has become.

________________________
(1) Please be advised that: The Warning , Miracle and Sign announced at the time of the Garabandal phenomena at San Sebastián de Garabandal, Spain, between 1961 and 1965 and in Medjugorje between 1981/1993 will not come to pass in the manner in which they were announced then.

The world is heading, without further ado, directly into the Chastisement, which was announced in Garabandal and Akita , and which we have independently confirmed several times since 1992.

July 25th [Feast of St. James the Apostle]

From (Mrs.) IW @ US
[names have been changed to protect the writers' privacy]

You often mention "Eyes to See and Ears to Hear"... Well, I can say that the people my husband, Lucas, and I want to see/hear the most - are not seeing nor hearing.

Mainly his siblings, their spouses and children. Lucas and I have been an example for them for 23 years now and we see no movement.

They can't even find their way to church on Christmas or Easter anymore, and make unnecessary remarks to us when we ask them to come. It is breaking Lucas' heart to see them languishing like this.

When his younger brother was in the hospital recently, he was scared and Lucas prayed with him. When he came home, back to the old drawing board.

We only hope and pray they FINALLY get the message. I know everyone won't, I just hope our families are the one's who do get the message, before it is too late.

IW

A. Thank you for sharing your concerns and giving us the opportunity to clarify some matters for all.

Indeed, "charity begins at home" - that is, your prayers on behalf of your family - but not at the expense of others.

You state "the people my husband, Lucas, and I want to see/hear the most - are not seeing nor hearing". You must ask yourself: Are these people the same ones who God wants to see/hear the most?

What if some of them fit in the group Jesus mentioned when He explained why He spoke in parables?

For the heart of this people is grown gross, and with their ears they have been dull of hearing, and their eyes they have shut: lest at any time they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and be converted, and I should heal them. [Matthew 13:15]

Just because they are your flesh-family does not mean that there are no other children of God who may need your prayers more than they do, and yet, no one is praying for them.

Not long ago I pointed out that when I pray for the Salvation of my children's soul I close the prayer with the following qualifier: "Were that Your Will, Lord."

We must remember that God loves each one of us to such an extent that we cannot even begin to comprehend, much less, emulate, but He knows well whose destiny is Heaven and whose destiny is hell and we must "work with Him" in the fulfillment of those destinies by always deferring to His Will.

When we pray for the Salvation of specific souls, we must defer to His Will so that: (a) We do not get in His way; and (b) He can use the offered, and potentially wasted, prayers on behalf of others - who may be destined for Heaven yet have no one offering the necessary prayers for them.

Part of the merits that we accrue in every Mass we offer are destined for: (a) Those who have no one praying on their behalf; and (b) Those who are in most need of the Mercy of God precisely because of the tremendous needs that God has for prayers on their behalf. I do not need to know them; God does and that is all that matters.

We are, by no means, suggesting that you do not continue to pray for your family. What we are saying is: (a) Do not forget the hundred of millions of souls who have no one praying for them; and (b) Always defer to Go on how the prayers offered are to be applied.

Thank you for the opportunity.... and, as always, if something is not clear enough to any of our readers - please ask!

While on the subject of prayer.... most of the faithful do not know how to pray.

The request must be clearly stated and the prayer must be focused on whom we are directing the request to.

Do not be misled in the interpretation of:

".... for your Father knoweth what is needful for you, before you ask him." [Matthew 6:8]

Yes; He certainly knows before we ask Him but, as the result of the gift of our Free Will, we must ask. In addition, let us never, ever forget the times that Jesus went to pray, not to mention the 40 days in the desert at the beginning of His Ministry.

If the Son of God - that is, God in human flesh - needed to pray, and pray much, imagine how many prayers a well fallen human needs to offer.

No; we are not collecting taxes on how much you pray. We just want to make sure that whomever reads our pages cannot claim ignorance when called upon to justify themselves before the Throne of God.

Meanwhile, regarding Purgatory.... it is very real!

We understand that it "went out of fashion" together with satan, hell, the prayer of exorcism to St. Michael and many, many people, are banking on its non-existence.

Besides the reality that we know for a fact that Purgatory is real, we have the real confirmation through Jesus:

Why don't you judge for yourselves what is right? As you are going with your adversary to the magistrate, try hard to be reconciled on the way, or your adversary may drag you off to the judge, and the judge turn you over to the officer, and the officer throw you into prison. I tell you, you will not get out until you have paid the last penny. [Luke 12: 57-59]

The adversary is satan who will be our accuser at the Final Judgment. You may ask: Reconcile with satan? No; no! The reconciliation spoken about here is with God as we admit our wrong doing, recognize it as such and seek the forgiveness granted by the "magistrate" - the confessor. The "judge" is God and the "officer" most likely is an angelic being delivering the guilty soul to "prison" - Purgatory.

Have you ever wondered why, at the end of the Hail Mary, we pray: "....pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death"? We are seeking Mary's help for the time when we are to face the "judge" so that his ruling is more gentle than we really deserve.

In closing.... Remember, prayer is not just for sweet little old ladies who have nothing else to do and sit on their rockers all day long while knitting and praying. Prayer should be embraced as another undeserved Grace from God and practiced without ceasing.... before is too late.

And now, as a reminder..... this is how far gone the world is.

Man behind blue whale suicide 'game' is jailed (1)

One of the founders of a controversial online challenge that encourages participants to kill themselves has been jailed.

Philipp Budeikin, who pleaded guilty to inciting teenagers to commit suicide, was given a three-year jail term by a Russian court.

People who take part in the so-called blue whale challenge are thought to be set tasks over 50 days, climaxing with suicide.

Budeikin, who was sentenced on July 17, admitted his involvement in the suicide attempts of two girls in Russia, a 16-year-old and a 17-year old.

He told Russian press his victims were ‘biological waste’ and he was ‘cleansing society’.

Comment: The gauge of how far gone the world is is not that Philipp came up with such a perversion. The real measure of world depravity is that it was allowed online!

Supreme Court Ruling Allows Patent And Trademark Requests For Racial Slurs, Swastika (2)

A group of companies and individuals are attempting to register racial slurs and offensive symbols, including the N-word and the Nazi swastika, in response to a June U.S. Supreme Court decision on trademarks.

Applicants filed nine trademark requests with the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (PTO) since the June 19 decision to negate a federal law barring discriminatory trademarks. The court ruled that the law violated free speech rights in the Constitution.

Comment: Yes; you read that right! If the application for a trademark pass the usual tests required to issue a trademark, then it does not matter how despicable it is. We can see newly designed kitchen oven with the trademark being AH.

A Final Comment: Does anyone need more reasons to pray without ceasing ???? We assure you, this is not even the tip of the proverbial iceberg!

From miguel de Portugal

Back on July 18th we wrote on this Forum that...

What most of the world population think is going on in the world at all levels - religious, moral, political and financial - are mostly lies. satan is blatantly running this world to an extent that it has taken me a day or two, and many prayers, to recover once I became fully aware of such reality.

Before we proceed with the matter at hand today, we wish to clarify the above statement to avoid misinterpretations.

What is meant by becoming "fully aware" is the in-depth realization that today's world is fully under satan's control - which of course is allowed by God - with the only exception being those who are striving to Draw closer to God; to become more and more one with Him, as His Word becomes flesh within their own flesh, thus becoming Perfect as the Father is Perfect.

As we progress in our journey to become Perfect as the Father is Perfect, the safer we become as we have graphically illustrated in This Document.

As the new perception continued to flourish within my soul I was impacted with the fullness of yet another reality. That is the matter at hand today.

One of the most repeated Biblical verses in our pages is: ....unless those days had been shortened, no flesh should be saved: but for the sake of the elect those days shall be shortened. [Matthew 24:22]

I believed that assurance implicitly and could see how the entire world was heading in that direction... until I came to the brutal realization of how that could actually happen, and in a very short time. All of a sudden Jesus' Words took yet another dimension that could be exemplified as follows:

If I did not have the absolute assurance that He will shorten those days I would have fallen into despair. That is how impacting that concrete and enhanced reality was.

Now, going back to our July 18th and 20th posts...

After much prayerful evaluation we concluded that it is not the Will of God that we share in this Forum what caused us:

(a) To strongly reconfirm that all we can do - and should! - is pray much. All else (*) is essentially a waste of time;
(b) To again repeat The Admonishment of St. Paul with greater emphasis now than when we first issued it thirteen years ago; and
(c) That The M+G+R Foundation should, henceforth, focus even more on publishing faith building texts and minimize all else unless it is a matter of personal security.
______________________
(*) Besides fulfilling our basic obligations in whichever state each one of us is in.

I also became aware why it is His Will that we do not share it in this Forum.

In closing we remind you that we are not selling "End of the World" supplies, nor selling Indulgences, nor trying to guilt you out of your money as the Roman Catholic Church has done so well during the last 1600.

What we are doing is the result of striving to live the Second Commandment, which is the direct result of striving to live the First Commandment.

Therefore, I, once again, repeat what Paul said in Acts 20:26:

.... I declare to you today that I am innocent of the blood of any of you. For I have not hesitated to proclaim to you the whole will of God.

The following P.S. was added several hours after the initial publication of this page

Just an hour or so after we had sent out today's For Your Information mailing, we received the following communication form a collaborator.

In today's For Your Information you state:

After much prayerful evaluation we concluded that it is not the Will of God that we share in this Forum what caused us:

..... (b) To again repeat The Admonishment of St. Paul with greater emphasis now than when we first issued it thirteen years ago; and .....

In the referred document, The Admonishment of St. Paul, you wrote:

The first letter to the Corinthians was completed in the year 57 A.D.... thirteen years before the Romans razed the Temple and Jerusalem and dispersed the Jews to the four corners of the known world (from where they started returning many centuries later after World War II).

With that said.... How close will asteroid 2012 TC4 come? (1)

Asteroid 2012 TC4 might give Earth a close shave in October 12, 2017. Or the asteroid could pass more distantly. Astronomers are keen to observe it now, to learn more about its orbit.

The Center for Near Earth Object Studies (CNEOS) at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, has said that a small asteroid designated 2012 TC4 will pass very close to Earth on October 12, 2017.

These experts said that, even though they can’t yet predict exactly how close it’ll come, they’re certain it’ll fly by at a safe distance. That safe distance could be a very close shave, however, with the space rock passing no closer than 4,200 miles (6,800 km) from our planet. Or it could be a more distant pass, some two-thirds the moon’s distance from Earth.

Comment: To place the "close shave" distance of 4,200 miles (6,800 km) in perspective...

The Earth's diameter at the Equator is 7,926 miles (12,756 km). That is, the asteroid will be as close to the Earth as half the diameter of the Earth... and that is close!

Let us continue to pray....

July 20th

From miguel de Portugal

Our July 18th post indirectly made reference to something else that I experienced immediately after we had issued our second proposal to God regarding the chronology of events leading to the End of These Times. We wrote "At this point we do not feel compelled to share the possible reasons, but a few issues have become crystal clear and/or confirmed."

The issues that became crystal clear and confirmed to me caused a researcher (not me), on his own, to state:

"For the past months I (the researcher) have been undergoing the greatest paradigm shift I (the researcher) have ever had to go through. It has rattled my (the researcher's) nerves and shaken my (the researcher's) bones. This intense adjustment of my (the researcher's) 'world' has come about by studying the information.... The new knowledge has necessitated a total revision of my (the researcher's) ideas about physical reality, the world we (all of us) live in, and the future of humanity."

For your information and reference, the researcher nor his sources have the proverbial half of the 'story'! The 'story' we refer to is miguel's proverbial daily bread.

The first part of what has become clear and/or confirmed is that:

What we have been exhorting all to do - and to the extent to - is exactly what must be done - no more and no less: Draw closer to God; become more and more one with Him, as His Word becomes flesh within your own flesh, thus becoming Perfect as the Father is Perfect.

The second part is that:

All the supernatural/mystical revelations granted to miguel de Portugal by the Grace of God over the past decades, some of which we have shared with you, empowered him not to react in the manner the researcher did (see the above quoted researcher's reaction). On the contrary, such clarifications and confirmations have emboldened us to continue to help strengthen the faith of those who are willing to listen to us.

We assure you again that without the armor of a strong Christian Faith, those destined to Heaven will suffer much on this side of the veil and will have to endure a lengthy stay in a very real Purgatory.

The first key refresher Homily follows....

We have used the following parable before, but now we will enhance it and provide a symbolic example.

As we have said, the entire Universe is submerged/contained within the Glory of God. Being one with God does not mean that we become Divine no matter how much satan, through many of the "Evangelizers", has tried to convince the faithful of. Become one with God is best exemplified by the following symbolism.

Imagine that the Glory of God is oil and your soul is a drop of water. As we all well know, oil and water do not mix at normal temperatures. However, if one starts heating a small amount of oil with a few drops of water - which are visibly separated from the oil - the drops of water begin to dissolve into the oil. Eventually, all the drops have been dissolved into the oil.

If one analyzes the mixture in a laboratory the results will show that there are two separate components in the mixture: oil and water, each retaining their specific nature yet invisible to the naked eye because they are in solution.

Now then, as we draw closer to God; become more and more one with Him, as His Word becomes flesh within your own flesh, we get "dissolved" into God just as the water droplets dissolved in the hotter than normal oil. God retains His Nature - Divine - and we retain our nature - beings created in His image - but not in His substance.

Why is that so important physically speaking? Will use yet another parable.

Imagine that the water drops have a powerful enemy who is trying to harm them. Before they dissolve into the oil, they can be easily seen, overcome and harmed. However, once they are dissolved into the oil they become invisible to their powerful enemy and they are safe.

As our soul "dissolves" more and more into the Glory of God, the safer we are in all aspects, physical and spiritual. Can you think of an objective more important than "dissolving" into the Glory of God?

Other "Refresher Homilies" will follow with the intent of helping strengthen the faith of those who are willing to listen to us.

If you have any questions and/or need specific clarification on the matters that we have covered above or any related matter - please ask! You will be doing all a favor.

From Mrs. LM @ US

The Divine Encouragement dated July 14th ended up having me do some background research on the French Revolution, (links at the end to the letter you wrote to H.H. John Paul II).

Now that was a very eye-opening quick History Lesson.

I could definitely see how that impacted our current world environment.

It is interesting how the Holy Spirit uses you to reveal these tidbits of information on something most of us would never think about. Connecting the dots.

God Bless You!

LM

A. As always, Thank you! for your kind feedback.

Do you see why my focus is to stay out of the way of God so that He can use me as He Wills?

Pray that I do more and more of that so that I can serve Him as He truly deserves. There is no greater joy than that!

We trust that you truly had a Blessed Our Lady of Mt. Carmel Day!

From miguel de Portugal

Well, today is July 18th and obviously the Will of God was not exactly the chronology that we proposed to Him on this forum on July 15th. That is why we must always defer to the Will of God in our every prayer and action. Even if I had had the physical power to do what I proposed - I still would have deferred to His Will and He would have either given me crystal clear indication that it was not His Will or summarily stopped me if I had missed His cue.

I did find interesting that I had no memory whatsoever that we had issued back in May - to a limited audience - a copy of a similar proposal to God. Only after we had issued the recent one on the 13th of July is that I remembered that we had recently issued something similar. A close collaborator referred to that initial issue a week or two ago and, when she did, I had no idea of what she was talking about. None! Considering that I am not losing my mind nor my memory, God must have had very important reasons to move me to publish it again. The purpose? I have some ideas but nothing concrete.

At this point we do not feel compelled to share the possible reasons, but a few issues have become crystal clear and/or confirmed:

(a) As we have often said - No worldwide horrific events have taken place because He has not allowed them. There are a number of simple ways through which powerful evil doers could trigger a variety of worldwide horrific events.
(b) What most of the world population think is going on in the world at all levels - religious, moral, political and financial - are mostly lies. satan is blatantly running this world to an extent that it has taken me a day or two, and many prayers, to recover once I became fully aware of such reality.
(c) We are hereby reconfirming that all we can do - and should! - is pray much. All else (*) is essentially a waste of time.
(d) The importance that we again repeat The Admonishment of St. Paul is greater now than when we first issued it thirteen years ago.
(e) The M+G+R Foundation should, henceforth, focus even more on publishing faith building texts and minimize all else unless it is a matter of personal security.

Be assured that as matters become clearer in my soul, heart and mind regarding what we have discussed above, we will let you know.

Regarding Salvation..... outside the Roman Catholic Church....

The document that we published on that subject covered it in detail, but there is a much briefer way for you to explain it to others if you so desire.

Biblically speaking, those who strive to live the Word of God - in the Person of Jesus - constitute the Mystical Body of Christ which is the true and only Church.

Just like the Roman Catholic Administration stole the Motherhood of Mary and refer to themselves as "Mother Church", they stole the true Biblical meaning of the word "Church" and they became "the Church". They are neither, nor will ever be!

Of course there is no Salvation outside the Church when "the Church" is Biblically defined: Those who strive to live the Word of God - in the Person of Jesus - constitute the Mystical Body of Christ and the Church.

The gravity of RCC Administration name-game lies in the fact that hundred of millions of Catholics believe that just because "they are inside the Roman Catholic Church" they are automatically saved - no matter how they live. To make matters even worse, Francis is reinforcing such belief with his discount store grade theology.

Perhaps you may be able to better understand now what we mean when we say that the largest percentage of souls lost from various Christian denominations will be precisely from the Roman Catholic Church.

Let us continue to pray.... It IS our duty and responsibility. Let us not forget that....

....from everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked. [Luke 12:48]

Did you know that...... some Catholic Groups are finally catching on about...

...the motives behind Francis' Harmful-to-the-Faith behavior?

We are making progress. May God be Praised!

From miguel de Portugal

On July 11th we discussed the importance of believing in faith and not as the result of physical proof. So important that Jesus allowed His disciples and Apostles not to have enough faith to believe that He was indeed the Messiah.... until after His Resurrection.

Then they believed that He was the Messiah and that, although they could not understand all the implications, Jesus was indeed the expected Savior. He did not fit the preconceived notions of a Messiah - the same notions today's Jews still hold and which will prove spiritually lethal to them when the False Christ is manifested - yet they believed in faith.

As we also mentioned, I know, not believe but know, most of what we are expected to believe in faith.... but that came about after I believed them on sheer faith and sometimes under extreme circumstances where my faith was tested to the limit.

For example, I know that Jesus is present in the Consecrated Host and even how the transubstantiation takes place.... but if you have noticed, we have never explained that, nor ever will.

Why? Because believing in faith is the Key to the Salvific Process established by Jesus. With that said, we alert one and all to avoid those who want to prove the reality of Jesus and the validity of the Holy Texts based on archeological finds or any physical proof.

Do I need to know where Noah's Ark is? Of course not! I do not need that to believe in faith what that story conveys to us.

Do I need to know where Jesus' tomb is? Not really.... but I do need to believe that He is present in every properly consecrated Host.

What about Sodom and Gomorrha? Who cares? I believe, without a shred of a doubt, the message delivered by that story, which, by the way, seems to have been amply confirmed by what happened to Pompeii.

We could go on almost indefinitely but perhaps you understand the point that we are trying to make: Do not try to establish or base your faith, or Evangelize others, based on physical findings - only solid, but not materially confirmed, faith in that Jesus, and only Him, Saves; no one and nothing else.

It goes without saying that solid, but not materially confirmed faith, is only demonstrated by those sincerely striving to live His Gospel, 7 days a week and 24 hours a day.

Exactly one hundred years have transpired since the complete Fatima secret was confided to the children by Our Lady of the Rosary of Fatima on July 13th, 1917.

The visual component of third part of the Secret, without the explanation of what it meant, was written down and sealed by Sr. Lucía and given to the appropriate Portuguese Ecclesiastical Authorities in 1942.

The most evident miracle will be this: Those who have given their souls to God - the religious who, for a long time now, have become indifferent thus betraying their vocation and as a result of their offenses have brought about the punishments and persecutions which are raging against the Church at the present time - will stop to offend Our Lord. They will again lead a life according to the original spirit of their saintly founders.

Let us also take note that....

Three months after July 13th, 2017, will be the 100th Anniversary of the Great Miracle in Fatima - October 13th, 1917.

The key requests of the manifestations of Mary as Rosa Mystica were transmitted to the visionary in Italy exactly thirty years after Mary revealed the key secret of Fatima to the visionaries in Portugal.

The observance on Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, probably the avocation of Mary with more Apocalyptic symbolism, always takes place three days after July 13th - that is - on July 16th.

The Feast of the Assumption of Mary to Heaven always takes place on August 15th, thirty days after the observance of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel

September 14th, the Celebration of the Triumph of the Cross always takes place sixty days after the observance of Our Lady of Mt. Carmel and thirty days after the Feast of the Assumption of Mary to Heaven.

and...

The observance of Our Lady of Sorrows always take place on September 15th, the day after the Celebration of the Triumph of the Cross

With all of that said..... if God would ask miguel de Portugal what kind of chronology would he propose - considering that the End of These Times is rapidly approaching - so that the events at the End of These Times would have the greatest positive effect on those members of the Elect who are still in denial, thus minimizing their suffering, what would it be?

This would be the Proposed Chronology

Deferring in all aspects to His Will

This is not a prophecy, just an answer to a hypothetical question from God

July 13th - Behind the scenes, as well as out in the open, the remaining world's fragile peace will rapidly collapse.

July 16th - A nuclear exchange will take place triggering global chaos; a chaos which will eventually trigger the manifestation of the falsified savior of the world - the False Christ.

[The enemy may use the Feast of the Assumption, August 15th, to more effectively promote the False Christ to the despairing world masses... and God may allow it so that all who have to be deceived, will be.]

September 14th - ...the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels: and then will he render to every man according to his works. [Matthew 16:27]

The False Christ will be snuffed out by God then, but the world is full of people who accepted and adored him so, between September 15th and October 13th, while Jesus somehow protects the Members of the Elect who are still alive, the cleansing of the planet will accelerate, with its climax taking place on October 13th.

Billions will have perished between September 15th and October 13th, the planet has been cleansed and now His Elect will live as God intended from the very beginning for the remaining of the 1,000 years, a period which come to an end on or about the year 2832.

Just a proposed chronology.... Let us continue to pray....

July 11th

From miguel de Portugal

Today we wish to cover a few Biblical topics and shed some of His Light at some "corners" which have been kept in the dark, yet affect our faith and our daily lives.

First: The doubting Thomas - not blessed?

On Thomas the Apostle feast day - July 3rd - the reading, logically, was from John 20:24 -29. Thomas is, of course, remembered because his doubts about the resurrection of Jesus and Jesus lecturing him thus:

[29] .... Because thou hast seen me, Thomas, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and have believed.

Happily, the D-R Bible quotes Jesus correctly - "blessed are they that have not seen, and have believed".

Most Bibles instead of reading "blessed are they that have not seen" they read "happy are they that have not seen". There is a theological world of difference between being "blessed" and being "happy". All who are truly "blessed" are intrinsically "happy" while those who are "happy" (as we understand that term in the world) are not necessarily "blessed".

There is no doubt - those who believe without having seen are truly blessed.

For your information, we checked into the Greek version of the text and the word used is indeed "blessed".

Second: Is poor Thomas the only doubter because he had not seen Jesus after His crucifixion?

How about the poor "...Mary Magdalen, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and the other women that were with them..." when they told "the eleven and all the rest" what they had seen at the sepulcher? [Luke 24: 1-11] They were not believed [Luke 24:11] by "the eleven and all the rest", yet it is poor Thomas the one to get the title of "Doubter" among the eleven.

But that is not all..... What if the scene had been reversed and the first time that Jesus appeared, only Thomas was present and "the eleven and all the rest" were not? Would they have believed Thomas testimony? Of course not! After all, they did not believe "...Mary Magdalen, and Joanna, and Mary of James, and the other women that were with them...".

So now that we have cleared Thomas' name and reputation, what is really the key teaching of this reading? The importance of believing based on sheer faith and not based on tangible proof.

We are sure that you remember the many times we write: "I know, not believe, but know!" What merit do I then have because I know, not just believe on faith alone? Good question!

The answer is that before "I knew" I fully believed on faith alone. The concrete knowledge on many matters was a gift from God after my faith was tested to the limit and withstood the onslaught from hell - thanks be to God!

Third: Jews have a tendency of blaming everyone else for the problems that befall them.

First Example

Today we received a letter from through Breaking Israel News seeking signatures for a petition. The headline read as follows:

UNESCO IS THROWING THE BIBLE IN THE GARBAGE! Tell UNESCO To Keep Their Hands off of the Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron. Abraham was a Jew, not a Palestinian!

We responded to that mailing as follows:

Good afternoon!

The problem really started when Abraham obeyed Sarai and not God, thus conceiving Ismael with the Egyptian slave Agar.

The rest is history. That IS the price for obeying one's wife and not God - remember what happen with Adam and Eve and God?

Is man ever going to learn?

I doubt it, unless God intervenes in a devastating manner... so, stay tuned for that.

Of course, we do not expect to receive an answer to that letter.

Second Example

Last Saturday in the First Reading of Mass we were reminded how "holy" Rebekah tricked the chosen child of Abraham, Isaac, so that he would bestow - pass on - the Abrahamic Blessing to her favorite son, Jacob, bypassing the rightful recipient of said Blessing, Esau.

Jews and Christians alike are blinded by Jacob's position in the history of salvation without giving a second thought to the reality that Jacob's position was obtained through deception - breaking one of the Ten Commandments.

Of course, God had to honor the falsified transmission of the Abrahamic Blessing but that falsification would cost the Jews dearly. Just as David's adultery and murder of Uriah carried a high price too.

When the Holy Texts are studied and explained by the alleged experts, one of the most important and repeated message should be not to interfere with the Divine designs. In addition to offending the One Who loves us to an extent that is incomprehensible to us, such interference always carries a heavy price.

No, we are not "ganging up" on women (Eve, Sarai, Rebekah and many others); the fault lies squarely on the men who go along with betraying God. We can almost think of these women as instruments of God to test the men's loyalty to Him.

If you allow us.... a little more "ranting and raving"....

The First Reading of last Thursday's Mass was from Genesis 22:1-19. When God requested that Abraham offer Isaac as a sacrifice...

The Roman Missal version of said reading starts as: "It happened that God put Abraham to the test..." , while....

The D-R Bible reads: "After these things, God tempted Abraham, and said to him:..."

God was neither tempting Abraham (that is a blasphemy - God does not tempt, satan does) nor testing Abraham in the purest sense. God was giving Abraham an opportunity to prove to Him that now Abraham would obey God above Sarai!

It's a shame that by the end of Isaac's life, the Sarai equivalent of the time, Rebekah, had forgotten that it was not a good idea to "mess with God". Forgotten in just one generation!

Actually we could keep on going for hours but the above should be sufficient to remind humanity that God has had more than enough justification to eradicate the human race form the face of the Universe and that we could never Glorify God enough even if we spent our entire lives doing it.

Bishop takes away pastoral duties from priest who upholds authentic Church teaching on marriage (1)

PALERMO, Italy, July 5, 2017 – A Catholic priest in Sicily was removed from his parish and had his faculties suspended because he defended the sanctity of marriage, his parishioners say.

Palermo Archbishop Corrado Lorefice has forbidden Don Alessandro Maria Minutella of St. John Bosco Parish to celebrate Mass, administer the sacraments, or preach, Italian journalist Marco Tosatti reported.

According to some parishioners, one of the official reasons for the measures was Don Minutella’s not knuckling down to the teaching of this current pontificate. The problem, they believe, is dueling interpretations of Amoris Laetitia.... Instead, he reaffirmed the teachings of John Paul II, saying there being a lack of clarity on the part of Francis to the questions asked by the four cardinals, and has stuck to the age-old denial of communion to those in adulterous relationships.

Parishioners told Tosatti that there are other controversial priests in Palermo "only these in the sense of being hyper-progressive and gay friendly" and the rest of Italy, but they are "spared thanks to the compliance" of Church hierarchy. But for the pastor of St. John Bosco, "suspensions and anathemas struck like lightning".

In the year 1864, Lucifer together with a large number of demons will be unloosed from hell; they will put an end to faith little by little, even in those dedicated to God. They will blind them in such a way, that, unless they are blessed with a special grace, these people will take on the spirit of these angels of hell; several religious institutions will lose all faith and will lose many souls.

In all places there will be extraordinary wonders, because the true faith has died and a false light shines on the world. Woe to the princes of the Church whose only occupation will be to heap wealth upon more wealth, and to preserve their authority and proud domination!

Go behind me, Satan, thou art a scandal unto me: because thou savourest not the things that are of God, but the things that are of men. [Matthew 16:23]

We ought to obey God, rather than men. [Acts Of Apostles 5:29]

From miguel de Portugal

Last week we decided to investigate the true story of the woman using the precious ointment on Jesus' feet and head since, as it is customary amongst most "Evangelizers", we never heard that explained from the Pulpit nor in any of the many meetings attended before I realized that God had granted me a Direct Line to Him.

Summarizing

(a) There is no indication anywhere that one of the women - the sinner - was Mary Magdalen.

(b) The only place where Mary Magdalen is mentioned that is not associated with the Crucifixion and Resurrection is Luke 8:2 where we read: Mary who is called Magdalen, out of whom seven devils were gone forth. That is - no one knows what Mary Magdalen did when those seven devils were in her.

(c) The scene where we read about the notorious prostitute that went into the Pharisees dinner party [Luke 7:36-40] took place twelve chapters before He was on the outskirts of Bethania before entering in Jerusalem on what we now call Palm Sunday. So there is no connection between that event [at Luke 7:36-40] and the ointment application that we read about in Matthew 26:1-8, Mark 14:1-4 and John 12: 1-5.

(d) The confusion may have arisen because the name of the Pharisee of the dinner party at Luke 7:36-40 was Simon which is the same name of the host (Simon 'the leper') at the dinner given in Jesus' honor in the outskirts of Bethania.

(e) A few extra bits of interesting information that resulted from this study follow:

(e-1) The dinner at the outskirts of Bethania was hosted at Simon the leper's home and not at Lazarus' home [Mark 14:3].
(e-2) Lazarus' sister, Martha, served at said dinner but it was at Simon the leper's home. [John 12:2]
(e-3) Martha's sister, Mary, had to be the one who applied the precious ointment on Jesus' head [Mark 14:3] and it follows that it was the same Mary who applied the precious ointment on Jesus' feet and wiped His feet with her hair [John 12:3]
(e-4) In John 12:1 the post Babylonian calendar was used when referring to the upcoming pasch : "Jesus therefore, six days before the pasch, came to Bethania...." while in Matthew 26:2, Mark 14:1 and implied in Luke 19:29 it is stated that the pasch would take place in two days - using the Essenes' calendar.

Therefore, although on the surface it appears confusing and may be labeled as Biblical incoherence, it seems quite coherent to us.

Please note: Even though we were most careful reviewing the Scriptural Texts from the D-R Bible (1) - if we made a mistake on the above, by all means, let us know.

Back on June 22nd, we wrote:

For several years we have been receiving from the National Earthquake Information Center - U.S. Geological Survey - reports about earthquakes occurring throughout the world.

When we signed up for such notifications we requested to receive notices of earthquakes occurring anywhere in the world, with a magnitude of 5.0 or greater on the Richter scale and not to report related aftershocks.

As the reports came in, we glanced at them and filed them. The years for which we had complete listings were for 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2017.

Now that the month of June has been completed, we can report the State of the World Earthquakes including the first six months of the year.

Year Number of Reports (earthquakes over 5.0)

2014                665
2015                  552
2016                                        509

Average for above three years    575

2017 (the first 6 full months)      719

In the first six months of the year 2017 we have had 25 % more over 5.0 earthquakes than in the average of the three previous full years. Maybe the world should not be worrying so much about global warming....

There was something that..... did not add up when we read the following news report:

Tech stocks appear to go nuts after computer glitch (1)
[our highlights]

The share prices of Amazon and other major tech companies appeared to go haywire on the eve of the July 4 holiday after a market data glitch.

The confusion arose when some websites incorrectly showed Amazon (AMZN, Tech30) plummeting 87%, Apple (AAPL, Tech30) dropping 14% and Microsoft (MSFT, Tech30) jumping 79% late Monday. This, had it been real, would have wiped nearly $400 billion off the company's market capitalization.

Nasdaq said the misleading prices came from test data it sent out that was "improperly" used by third party companies that supply information to websites.

The bizarre numbers didn't affect actual trades in the stocks, Nasdaq spokesman Ryan Wells said. The erroneous prices showed up on the websites of CNNMoney, Bloomberg and Google Finance.

Nasdaq said the data that was sent out was part of "normal evening test procedures."

By early Tuesday, the correct data was starting to appear on the websites affected.

Comment: If this had been a regular and normal test to track down how quickly the data made its way through the Internet, all they had to do was to change the prices just a little from the closing value to be able to do so. This would prevent a financial crisis if something would go wrong during the test.

The way we see it.... what they were testing was to see if CNNMoney, Bloomberg and Google Finance had some sort of alarm that would have prevented them to publish such drastically reduced numbers (simulated market crash) and how long it would take to get them back to the right levels.

The truth: A fake partial market crash is being prepared to then trigger a complete real one. One doesn't even have to be an Apocalyptic conspiracy theorist; all one needs to see this is to have a working brain and the Light of the Holy Spirit of God.

The European Commission President...... told the European Parliament: 'You are ridiculous'

In an angry outburst, European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker called MEPs “ridiculous” for not turning up to a session reviewing the six-month presidency of Malta.

Juncker addressed MEPs in the Strasbourg chamber thanking them for attending, before stating that the fact only 30 had turned up showed that the parliament was “not serious”.

The incident proved one of the most bitter disputes between EU officials over the last few years.

Comments: He has seen the light! In this case, however, it is not the Light of the Holy Spirit nor the light at the end of a tunnel.... it is the symbolic light of a high powered locomotive heading straight onto the European Union system.

Homosexual Vatican Monsignor Arrested.... Drugs And Gay Parties (1a,b)

Il Fatto Quotidiano reports that the Holy See's Gendarmerie disrupted a homosexual drug-party in an apartment of the Palazzo del Sant'Uffizio in Rome, where also the Congregation of the Doctrine of the Faith is located. The apartment belongs to a monsignor, who was caught red-handed. According to Il Fatto Quotidiano, he is the secretary of a cardinal who heads a dicastery of the Roman Curia and who had proposed the monsignor to become a bishop.

The monsignor was brought to the Roman clinic Pio XI in order to be detoxified. He is now in a monastery in Italy. His apartment was not destined for simple monsignors. He also drove an exclusive car with Vatican license plates, which are reserved for higher Vatican dignitaries.

Il Fatto Quotidiano writes that the cardinal, for whom the monsignor was working, is well over 75. This is only true for two cardinals at the Roman Curia, Cardinal Angelo Amato (79) of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints, and pro-gay Cardinal Francesco Cocopalmerio (79) of the Pontifical Council for Legislative Texts.

Comments: Oh, yes!.... the "holiness" of it all!

Wouldn't it be interesting if a huge sinkhole would occur directly under the Vatican and would swallow most of it? Maybe some of the disoriented faithful would wake up in time faced with that Act of God sign.

Religious Jews in Israel..... keep seeing the prophetic signs that announce the coming of the Messiah. (1)

Never mind that most of the prophetic signs have already been amply fulfilled by the First Coming of Jesus Christ and the very few remaining ones will be fulfilled at His Second Coming when...

.... they shall look upon me, whom they have pierced: and they shall mourn for him as one mourneth for an only son, and they shall grieve over him, as the manner is to grieve for the death of the firstborn. In that day there shall be a great lamentation in Jerusalem like the lamentation of Adadremmon in the plain of Mageddon. [Zacharias 12:10-11]

Comment: I truly feel sorry for them. When their most awaited Messiah shows up and they see that He Is the One whom they have pierced - how will they feel.

If I felt the way I did when I saw Jesus crucified right before my eyes and I was in State of Grace, I cannot even begin to imagine how they will feel. We must continue to pray for those Jews who may be among the Elect so that they convert sooner than later thus reduce their suffering.

July 4th

From miguel de Portugal

A reminder for the month of July from Mary, Rosa Mystica

Did you know that.... Texas has its own Power Grid? (1)

Blackout postmortems have noted that in the continental United States, the electricity system consists of just five regions: the Eastern Interconnection, the Western Interconnection, and the Texas Interconnection plus the Alaska and Hawaii grids. Only the lower 48 states derive power from the three interconnections mentioned. Hawaii and Alaska are on separate grids just as Texas is. Why does the Lone Star State have its own power grid?

Partly because of a historical desire for self-sufficiency and partly because of that famous "Don't Mess With Texas!" attitude.

The local utilities that comprise ERCOT have pledged not to sell their power to interstate customers. As a result, the interconnection is exempt from most regulation by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, the Beltway agency that governs the transmission of electricity from state to state—say, by mandating transmission standards, or requiring that prices be listed in public forums. ERCOT's resistance to federal regulation plays well in President Bush's native land, where meddling from Washington, D.C., is generally abhorred.

Comments: I am as surprised as most of our readers may be regarding this very convenient (for these times) reality... even though Texas has been my Home State since 1960 I was not aware of that. By the way, that "Don't Mess With Texas!" attitude is very real, specially outside the metropolitan areas.

While on the subject of Texas.... Since the middle of the 20th century Texas has been on the national spotlight because:

It had four of its nominal Texans in the White House: Dwight D. Eisenhower, Lyndon B. Johnson, George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush

It was the State where President Kennedy was assassinated (2); a President who was a major stumbling block to the New World Order agenda, whose self acknowledged Godfather (3) was George H. W. Bush.

Just an observation or two..... without even including that the two other Kennedys who could have been installed in the White House without much effort - Bobby Kennedy and John-John (President Kennedy's son) - met untimely and early deaths.

From miguel de Portugal

While in prayer last Saturday before His Holy Eucharistic Presence a very sad awareness filled my heart - the awareness about the millions upon millions of souls in Purgatory who ended there with lengthy sentences because of no fault of their own. Simply as the result of a failed Evangelization effort and the poor pastoral examples throughout the centuries. Most really did not know what they were doing!

Our Good Lord lifted my profound sadness with a solution which has given me great consolation and great joy for those poor souls. The next day - on Sunday - we started a Novena of Masses precisely for the benefit of those particular souls while invoking Jesus' words from the cross with a small variation: Father, forgive them for they did not know what they were doing!

We solicit your prayers on their behalf. It must be terrible to cross the veil and find out the price of what one did without even knowing how serious it was or that it was a sin, to begin with.

While we are soliciting your prayers for others.... please, also add the following two groups to your prayers to the Father in the Name of Jesus: For the benefit of those who have no one praying on their behalf and For the benefit of those who are in must need of His Mercy. Both are to be pplied to souls at either side of the veil.

Believe it or not, most souls - at either side of the veil - have no one praying on their behalf and they need our help.

May God reward you richly for your kindness.

Finally, brethren, be strengthened in the Lord, and in the might of his power.

Put you on the armour of God, that you may be able to stand against the deceits of the devil. For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood; but against principalities and power, against the rulers of the world of this darkness, against the spirits of wickedness in the high places. Therefore take unto you the armour of God, that you may be able to resist in the evil day, and to stand in all things perfect. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of justice, And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace:

In all things taking the shield of faith, wherewith you may be able to extinguish all the fiery darts of the most wicked one. And take unto you the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit (which is the word of God). [18] By all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the spirit; and in the same watching with all instance and supplication for all the saints: And for me, that speech may be given me, that I may open my mouth with confidence, to make known the mystery of the gospel. For which I am an ambassador in a chain, so that therein I may be bold to speak according as I ought.

....Take heed that no man seduce you: For many will come in my name saying, I am Christ: and they will seduce many.

And you shall hear of wars and rumours of wars. See that ye be not troubled. For these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be pestilences, and famines, and earthquakes in places: Now all these are the beginnings of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall put you to death: and you shall be hated by all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be scandalized: and shall betray one another: and shall hate one another.

And many false prophets shall rise, and shall seduce many. And because iniquity hath abounded, the charity of many shall grow cold. But he that shall persevere to the end, he shall be saved.

When therefore you shall see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place: he that readeth let him understand.

Then they that are in Judea, let them flee to the mountains: And he that is on the housetop, let him not come down to take any thing out of his house: And he that is in the field, let him not go back to take his coat. And woe to them that are with child, and that give suck in those days. But pray that your flight be not in the winter, or on the sabbath.

For there shall be then great tribulation, such as hath not been from the beginning of the world until now, neither shall be. And unless those days had been shortened, no flesh should be saved: but for the sake of the elect those days shall be shortened. Then if any man shall say to you: Lo here is Christ, or there, do not believe him. For there shall arise false Christs and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders, insomuch as to deceive (if possible) even the elect. Behold I have told it to you, beforehand.

....From everyone who has been given much, much will be demanded; and from the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked. [Luke 12:48]
