Points to Ponder About
December
2006 - March 2007
PURPOSE
The purpose of Points to
Ponder
About is to stimulate thinking that would draw the disoriented
Faithful back to God (1)
and away from the hypocritical duplicity of some religious
institutions which are destroying the little faith left on earth (2).
The instructions are simple: Just
invoke the illumination of
the
Holy Spirit of God while you ponder upon any of these Points to Ponder and let God guide
you to Light. We know that some make-believe religious leaders will
say: "What about satan interfering
and leading the soul astray?" To those... we invoke Our Lord's
Words again:
"...Get
the behind me, Satan: the art an offense unto me: for the severest
not the things that be of God, but those that be of men." [Matthew 16:23]
and further
"And
I
say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and yea shall find;
knock, and it shall be opened unto you. For every one that sketch
receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it
shall be opened. If a son shall ask bread of any of you that is a
father, will he give him a stone? or if he ask a fish, will he for a
fish give him a serpent? Or if he shall ask an egg, will he offer
him a scorpion? If ye
then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children: how
much more shall
your heavenly Father give the Holy Spirit to them that ask him?
[Luke 11:9-13]
and finally
"But
woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the
kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither
suffer ye them that are entering to go in." [Matthew 23:13]

Do you
ever wonder... what he means and by whose authority miguel de Portugal
refers to certain Ecclesiastic Administrators as Spiritual Bastards?
Those who meditated upon the Mass Readings for March 28th would have
read John 8: 31-42:
31 Then Jesus said to
those Jews, who believed him: If you continue in my word, you shall be
my disciples indeed.
32 And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.
33 They answered him: We are the seed of Abraham, and we have never
been slaves to any man: how sayest thou: you shall be free?
34 Jesus answered them: Amen, amen I say unto you: that whosoever
committeth sin, is the servant of sin.
35 Now the servant abideth not in the house for ever; but the son
abideth for ever.
36 If therefore the
son shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.
37 I know that you are the children of Abraham: but you seek to kill
me, because my word hath no place in you.
38 I speak that which I have seen with my Father: and you do the things
that you have seen with your father.
39 They answered, and said to him: Abraham is our father. Jesus
saith to them: If you be the children of Abraham, do the works of
Abraham.
40 But now you seek to kill me, a man who have spoken the truth to you,
which I have heard of God. This Abraham did not.
41 You do the works
of your father. They said
therefore to him: We are not born of fornication: we have one Father,
even God.
42 Jesus therefore said to them: If God were your Father, you
would indeed love me. For from God I proceeded, and came; for I
came
not of myself, but he sent me:
Please, do take note that Jesus was speaking to "...those Jews, who believed him:..."
May those who have Eyes, See and Ears, Hear.

Do you
ever wonder... what Mary really meant when She told the Fatima children:
"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, Russian will be converted, and there will be
peace; if not, she will spread her errors
throughout the world, promoting wars and persecutions of the Church. The good
will be
martyred; the Holy Father will have much to suffer; various nations
will be annihilated; in the end, my Immaculate Heart will
triumph. The Holy Father will consecrate Russia to me, and she will be
converted, and a period of peace will be granted to the world. In
Portugal the dogma of the Faith will be preserved,.... Do not tell this
to anybody. Francisco, yes, you may tell him." [Whole Text, in
English and Portuguese, is Item
B in ATTACHMENT II]
Did she only mean communism or was there something else? What errors
was She speaking about which prompted Her to close with the statement: In
Portugal the dogma of the Faith will be preserved?
Could She have been referring to the true poison of the Faith
which was birthed by Helena Petrovna Blavatsky, a Russian, and
which was the precursor of
The New Age
Movement
and all deviations
springing from it like the
United Religions
Initiative?
Think about it.....

Do you
ever wonder.....
when Jesus said from the cross: " Father,
forgive them, for they know not what they do." if the Temple
Administrators perhaps knew what they were doing?
No, they did not... unless they were fully possessed by satan. Only
satan would attempt to cause pain and suffering to God in the flesh (he
knows good and well that he could not kill Him). A mere human
would have to be totally insane to, knowingly, crucify God in the human
flesh.

Do you
ever wonder.....
exactly what we mean when we refer to the Church Administrator's "poor
Evangelizing effort"? We shall explain:
Without agreeing with the new and strong currents which grants Mary
Magdalene the Primacy over the chosen Apostles nor with those who
are
pushing for women in the Priesthood, we cannot deny that the role
of
women in the New Testament has been greatly downplayed for the benefit
of male dominance.
In today's reading [Solemnity of St. Joseph] we read (quoting from The
USCCB published readings for the day):
[2
Samuel 7:4-5a, 12-14a, 16]
The LORD spoke to Nathan and said: “Go, tell my servant David, ‘When
your time comes and you rest with your ancestors, I will raise up your
heir after you, sprung from your loins, and I will make his kingdom
firm. It is he who shall build a house for my name. And I will make his
royal throne firm forever. I will be a father to him, and he shall be a
son to me. Your house and your kingdom shall endure forever before me;
your throne shall stand firm forever.’”
and
[Matthew 1:16, 18-21, 24a]
Jacob was the father of Joseph, the
husband of Mary. Of her was born Jesus who is called the Christ. (These
two sentences are not part of the Scriptures but in the USCCB page it
appears to be part of the reading.)
Now this is how the birth of Jesus Christ came about. When his mother
Mary was betrothed to Joseph, but before they lived together, etc.
As part of the Christmas readings we read:
[Luke 2:4]
And Joseph also went up from Galilee,
out of the city of Nazareth into Judea, to the city of David, which is
called Bethlehem: because he was of the house and family of David,
The
confusing message is that Joseph had to be the real father of Jesus
since he is the one highlighted as being from the House of David and "...Go, tell my servant David, ‘When your time
comes and you rest with your
ancestors, I will raise up your heir after you, sprung from your loins,
and I will make his kingdom firm..." and "...because he was of the
house and family of David,"
The fulfillment of the Prophecy spoken for through Samuel comes through
Mary Who was also of the House of David and symbolically - just
symbolically - through Joseph.

Do you
ever wonder.....
why the Faithful keep chasing after the latest Marian Apparition or
latest "seer" message when all that Mary has had to say and request has
been said and requested many times already?
For the same reason people keep seeking for the "miracle diet" when all
they have to do is eat less, eat healthy food and exercise regularly.
With Heaven there is no "easy way out" just like there is no easy way
out of excess weight.
25 For it is easier for a camel to pass
through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the
kingdom of God. [Luke
18]
But, if you ask....
26
Who then can be saved?
[Mark 10]
He
answered that too....
27 With men it is
impossible; but not with God: for all things are possible with God.
[Mark 10]
Which is
what Mary has been trying to get across to the Faithful through the
Church Administration since
the beginning of the 19th Century
At least, one thing that you do not have to wonder about is where the
world is heading too....

Do you
ever wonder.....
how deceitful can satan be? Wonder no more - Everywhere there is
a strong Pro Life movement everyone is exhorted to pray for the victims
of abortion... meaning, the aborted babies... when the real victims,
the ones whose souls are at stake, are the mothers seeking the death of
their children and those who assist her in doing so.
Thus, we pray for the souls of the baby, whose only sin was their
personal version of the original sin, and we do not pray for those
who
need it the most. Score is, once again: satan 1; disoriented Faithful 0
While, with his right hand is directing the above snare, with his left
hand he is making sure that the noise made about abortion drowns the
horrendous cries to Heaven caused by the destruction of souls
through
child sexual abuse.
Updated score: satan 2; disoriented Faithful 0
....and so it goes, but, since precious few "know
our face", satan's
score will continue to increase until God gives mankind an unequivocal
and final warning - a preview of which "the faceless one" already
experienced; a warning which will not be survived by many due to
the
condition of the souls of most.

Do you
ever wonder.....
If the person occupying the "seat of Peter", the papacy is
"chosen by God" thorough the vote by the council of voting cardinals,
how is it possible for a "false pope" or a person "not worthy" pope
to occupy the papacy occur?
This
pope stands in place of Jesus, who is the head of the Church. Why would
God let anyone "not worthy" occupy this seat since this person is
responsible for the doctrines of the Faith, and we are to accept the
pope as the head of the Church and an authority on the Faith?
The answer is simpler than it appears. First, we refer the reader to
the
First Book of KINGS
22: 1-38. In there you will see how God
allows satan to deceive those who were seeking His Word through certain
prophets.
Why? Simply because they knew what they wanted to do and really did not
care about the Will of God.
They were just going through the motions. Just like most conclaves have
been for centuries. If you read miguel de Portugal's
report on his trip
to Rome during the last conclave you will see how all was carefully
(and obvious to those who have eyes) staged.
Do you now wonder why we continue to
uphold
and promote the
Catholic
Faith with
its
invaluable Sacraments in spite of the
less-than-desirables
who
have occupied the Chair of Peter and the
highest positions in the Church Administration such as
Levada
and
Egan, just to mention two
of
many?
As we have said often - even satan must serve God and, since God would
not allow, under any circumstances, that His Elect be deprived of the
benefits of the Pristine Catholic Faith at these most critical times,
the Faith has been mostly untouched by
those
filthy hands.

Do you
ever wonder.....
why the Faithful has more and more reason to be confused an disoriented?
Take a look at what we read in a Detroit alternative newspaper (*) and
from which we quote: ands wonder no more....
"Father Samonie says what he witnessed
as a boy made him powerfully
aware, for the first time, of a spirit world. Throughout his childhood
and his 50-year career as a Roman Catholic priest — at nine metro
Detroit parishes — Samonie didn't talk much about that day, but
it was the first of many episodes that eventually changed his views
about religion..
He made his story public in 1998,
when, he says, Jesus granted him permission to publish a tell-all book,
On My Way Home. He's written four books since. The latest, Rite
of Passage, comes out this month, and he's got another already in
manuscript form about the teachings of Edgar Cayce,
a clairvoyant and well-known author who claimed to be able to answer
questions about the meaning of the universe and countless other topics
through a process of self-induced hypnosis."
and
"Father Jay bridges the gap between
fundamentalists and spiritualists, he brings it all together."
Schmaltz and his partner Rich Wedeking
are hunting for a distributor for Light and looking into
getting it on the film festival circuit.
Here's a man of the cloth — a
Roman Catholic priest, no
less — who thinks Lucifer's gotten a "bum rap" and believes in a
perpetual cycle of reincarnation. He looks for truth on his own terms.
Samonie has a doctoral degree in
metaphysics from University of Detroit and two master's
degrees. He
meditates and practices yoga — has been for more than four decades —
and his quest for truth has led him to study Eastern traditions in
which religion coincides with personal mystical experiences. But it
took him years to come to terms with the out-of-body sensations — the
visions, the visits from spirit guides and spontaneous trances that
brought to his mind vivid memories of past lives as a concert
pianist, a Mayan architect and the 17th century painter Diego
Velásquez.
As fantastic as his tales seem,
it's hard not to believe the man. He's a persuasive and witty
storyteller, and he's extremely intelligent without being at all
arrogant. He speaks Greek, Latin, Hebrew, Arabic, Spanish,
French and German. He
teaches about the importance of following your conscience no matter
what the Bible says, and lectures on the difference between being
religious and being spiritual. Remember: He's a Catholic priest. He's
been reported for heresy by his peers ("fine gentlemen,"
Samonie calls them) four times, and yet he considers those
charges "credits." Samonie's unassuming and humble, someone
you can't easily dismiss as a wacko."
[Comment: He claims
past life recall ... and one of these was as a Mayan:]
"After finally taking priesthood vows in
1956, he studied in Mexico
City, living at a seminary called El Seminario Conciliar. He visited
the nearby pyramids of Teotihuacán. It was there that he
recounts his
first past-life vision. In On My Way Home, he describes the
episode from another lifetime:
I remember seeing a flash of light
from the camera when she
took the picture. I started to go join the tour group. However, the
most amazing thing happened! I said to myself, "What is this? What's
going on?" I looked at my arms. They were very dark. I then noticed I
had only a loin cloth around my waist. I felt my hair. It was straight
and jet black. I kept saying to myself "I'm a Mayan. How can this be? I
am Jay Samonie. How did I get here? And how do I get back?"
As I was standing there in a state of
complete confusion
someone came up to me speaking in another tongue, not Mayan.
Nevertheless, I understood perfectly and told him to how to place a
large block in place. The stone must have weighed several tons. ... I
was actually doing the work of an architect supervising the
construction of two rows of structures that eventually joined the two
pyramids."
Samonie writes that two women found him
standing, unresponsive,
with his head tilted to the right. Later that day, his tour guide told
him that it was possible the architects of the pyramids were Mayan."
[Comment: The
journalist ... and it seems, the priest ... claim that the Church
accepted reincarnation for the first 5 centuries. ]
"Scholars say reincarnation was
acknowledged in Christianity and in
the Bible, until 553 AD, when Justinian, Emperor of the Eastern Empire
in Constantinople, and his wife Empress Theodora, had the references
taken out. By some accounts, they burned all the Bibles and had them
rewritten because Theodora was afraid she was going to return loaded
down with bad karma for, among other things, working previously as a
courtesan and promoting ethical treatment of prostitutes.
Samonie says he's not alone in his
beliefs. Two well-noted
examples he cites are Cardinal Desire Joseph Mercier, an early 20th
century leader who became the Belgian spokesman against German
occupation during World War I, and Thomas Merton, a Trappist monk and
author ordained as a Roman Catholic priest."
"Father Jay never preached about his
personal experiences in church
services, but Eastern philosophies, including reincarnation, came up in
workshops he taught. During the late '70s and early '80s, while working
at Holy Trinity, Samonie taught classes in the Silva Method of Mind
Development and Stress Control, which focuses on meditation, healing,
positive thinking and memory techniques to sharpen the mind. "
"But Samonie established his own
reputation at Holy Trinity. While
continuing the free medical and legal clinics and Kern's open-door
policy for helping the poor, he also founded the Manna Soup Kitchen, a
program that continues to feed the public. Samonie served for
five years as the director of the Pastoral Team for the Hispanic
Apostolate, which founded Latin Americans for Social, Economic
Development (LASED), and hosted the first pilot project for Alternative
for Girls, a 20-year-old local program that provides support, shelter
and counseling to high-risk young women and girls. In 1989, Samonie was
officially appointed by Michigan Gov. James Blanchard to serve on the
Judicial Tenure Commission, a group that oversees the conduct Michigan
judges. Samonie was the first priest to be appointed to the
commission.
Despite his reputation in the
community, Samonie's career has been contentious because he promoted
the notion that an individual's personal conscience
is superior to any rulebook, saying that the Bible is full of
metaphorical teachings.
That's not so controversial today, with many priests putting their
careers on the line to speak out against the policies of this country
and the church. But in the 1950s and '60s, Samonie was delving into
ideas that weren't church-approved. In 1963, Samonie says he
got some backup, when the Second Vatican Council "let some fresh air
in," calling for an examination of all the church doctrines,
but many clung to conservative notions."

Do you
ever wonder.....
what Jesus really meant when He said: 17 ....They that are well have no need of a physician,
but they that are sick.
For I came not to call the just, but sinners.
[Mark 2]
Exactly who are "They that are well" and
who are "...they that are sick." ?
The truth is that we are all sick for... 7
When therefore they continued asking him, he lifted up himself, and
said to them: He that is without sin among you, let him first cast a
stone at her.
[John 8] It is just a matter
of being aware of it.
"They that are well" - are those who think that they are
well and would not respond to His call - then and now; the rest of us -
His Elect - are "...they who are sick." for we recognize it and hang on
to each of His Words for They are true nourishment for our souls;
nourishment which strengthen
us to "walk" The Way - His Way - the ONLY
Way.

Do you

do you know when what you want for yourself is not the right thing, or
the result that you want is not God's Will.
Quite simple: It really does not matter...
IF whatever you ask for and seek
you, as an act of your free will, subject it to the Will of God.
If you do so, He will not allow it, under any circumstances.
We suggest that the Faithful who is seeking more and more Light, peruse
our documents which focus

Do you ever wonder..... where the whole Valentine "ritual" of gift and card
giving originated? Wonder no more....
At least three different Saint
Valentines, all of them martyrs, are mentioned in the early
martyrologies under date of 14 February. One is described as a priest
at Rome, another as a bishop of modern Terni, and these two seem both
to have suffered
in the second half of the third century and to have been buried on the
Flaminian Way, but at different distances from the city. In the 12th
century what was known to the ancients as the Flaminian Gate of Rome
and is now the Porta del Popolo, was called the Gate of St. Valentine.
The name seems to have been taken from a small church dedicated to the
saint which was in the immediate neighborhood. Of both these St.
Valentines some sort of official records
are preserved but they are of relatively late date and of no historical
value. Of the third Saint Valentine, who suffered in Africa with a
number of companions, nothing further is known.
Saint Valentine's Day
The popular customs associated with Saint
Valentine's Day
undoubtedly had their origin in a conventional belief generally
received in England and France during the Middle Ages, that on 14
February, i.e. half way through the second month of the year, the birds
began to pair. Thus in Chaucer's Parliament of Foules we read:
For this was sent on Seynt Valentyne's day
Whan every foul cometh ther to choose his mate.
For this reason the day was looked upon
as specially consecrated to
lovers and as a proper occasion for writing love letters and sending
lovers' tokens.
Therefore, the bottom line is: It had
to do little with saints and holiness and much about mating; i.e. sex.
Thus - nothing new under the Sun... It is "Sex yesterday today and tomorrow..."

Do you ever wonder..... why it seems that God randomly and frequently
punishes the population of this Earth?
Actually He does not
punish His children as we understand punishment. When we run into great
difficulties it is only for
one or two reasons.
The key is to learn how to "make lemonade" every time we force Him to
give us a "lemon". Life is just learning how to make lemonade -
once we learn, it will feel that the lemons stopped coming...

Do you ever wonder..... why, nowadays, most priests in the confessional
give such bland and ineffective responses when the penitent presents
him with his (the penitent's) sins, shortcomings and problems which
require feedback and guidance to overcome?
Even though we criticize, with the intent to correct the clergy and
protect the
Faithful, the abysmal failings of many of the priests and hierarchy, we
must also acknowledge that they face some very serious uphill problems
with the Faithful. Following is an example:
miguel de Portugal receives a letter from a regular to The M+G+R
Foundation Domain: [edited to protect the privacy of the writer]:
Due to the terrible [State
deleted] economy, we are about to lose everything, our business, our
home, we are financially ruined after trying to keep the business
afloat... Despite daily mass, many rosaries per day, adoration,
personal prayer time, etc...
Where will we raise our [large number deleted] children? May God have
mercy on us... please pray for our family, we need a miracle.
Yours in
Christ,
miguel gave this plea priority and immediately responded thus:
May the Peace of God be upon you!
You state: "...despite
daily mass, many rosaries per day, adoration, personal prayer time,
etc... we are about to lose everything, our
business, our home, we are financially ruined after trying to keep the
business afloat"
When
anyone is faced with something like this, the first
thing that must be done is to realize that we, not God, are
doing something wrong and God is trying to call our attention to it.
[In here m de P gave this writer
a very graphic example of an abysmal situation he had just witnessed.
Upon visiting the "stage of events" in person, it became crystal
clear to him why God is allowing such misery upon
them, yet the individuals cannot see the "why". We have
edited the details out for privacy concerns.]
What your situation is -
we
do not know. The examples above
are just
given as illustrations of cases when it appeared that God
somehow was
failing them and, although not directly stated,
by default, that is
precisely what is being implied - which made matters even worse.
[We
can go on and on with similar examples.]
In a past mailing you stated: [Deleted a statement about a seer in her
group]
and that
deeply
disturbed us
because it pointed toward "problems". Group seer?
What we understand by a "Seer" is precisely what we instruct against in
our document
adivin.html
Regarding
"where
will we raise our [many, many] children" - let us
remember that God
has the interest of those children more at heart than you and your
husband ever will. They ARE His children - you and your husband
are
God's caretakers for those children.
Having said all of that - we recommend that you point blank ask Him to
show you what is not in order in your and your husband's lives which
has caused Him to, after trying to gently show you many times in the
past, without doubt, now has no other choice but to increase the volume
of the megaphone
redempt.html
You may be assured of our prayers which will be offered to God seeking
His favor so that He may show you where the "disorder" is so that you
may correct it and bring back the spiritual harmony that He wishes for
you, your husband and His [many, many] children in your care.
We pray that we have not offended you in any way but there was nothing
else we could say. We are not into "politically" correct
interaction
with the Faithful - we are here to help those who seek help.
Many continued Blessings!
m de P through
The M+G+R Foundation
The lengthy response came back "fast and furious" and it concluded
with:
I must add that I am sadder after hearing your response, what i needed was hope.
Before even having read the first one, we received another lengthy one
which started thus:
After sleeping on it, I accept all blame if my original posts were not clear and you were misled. I accept the blame, as a family, for falling short of what God wants from us - I know I am doing everything personally I can do to beg for his help and remain faithful and loving to him.
Once again, regardless of the inital wording, the blame is placed on
God since the writer "...is doing everything personally I can
do...". Could it be that what the writer think is
"everything" does not include what God needs her to do - thus our
original recommendation?
Then the situation of the seer was clarified because the writer felt
that we misunderstood her. The clarification only confirmed our
concerns. That individual, in New Age circles, would be called a
"chaneler" and amongst spiritualists would be called a "medium" and in
santeria would be called "babalao".
If we had only said: "Yes, you may count on our prayers" the writer
would have been happy. However,
we knew that there must be
a major disorder in that environment and tried to guide the writer on
how to approach God to find out what to do. That would accelerate the
solution because the prayers offered would be directed to the problem.
We have had (we do not make a point of this type of work for such
function is not our charge) a situation from another family which was
amongst the worse family disorders that we have encountered. It was
bordering on the unreal. A response more specific - and very hard to
endure - was given since the writer gave us every hair raising detail
imaginable. The writer, with determination, wanted to get to the bottom
of the problems and to act upon them in accordance to the Will of God;
and so she did.
We would get an update every four to six months because it was God Who
was going to walk with her, not miguel. If a slight adjustment in the
approach was needed, miguel mentioned it as well as answering any
doubts the writer may have had.
Today we received an update - the results are a continual string of
wonders and miracles accompanied by the writer's ever present
jaculatory, even when she was at the bottom of the pit:
He is a most Loving and Generous God. Praise be
His Most Holy Name!!
This is why, brethren, many confessors -
symbolically
speaking -
after hearing a penitent confess that he had killed his next door
neighbor because he wanted to bed the neighbor's wife - may say: "You
are not alone child - that is exactly what King David did to Urias and
God forgave him. For your penitence pray an Our Father, a Hail Mary and
a Gloria..... Next!"
For the record - the man who was later annoited miguel de Portugal, can
say that, with the exception of the number of children, regarding the
finacial situation you face: "I've been there and done that!" and alone - just with God
and my mother Elizabeth. Therefore we speak with first hand knowledge of the
problem. Incidentally, the medicine m
de P prescribed for you is exactly the same one he took... and, of
course, it worked.
We are not being neither sarcastic nor insensitive. We want to drive
home - all homes - the point that:
When we
say that we need to take a close look at what we may be doing
wrong before saying "...despite
daily mass, many rosaries per day, adoration, personal prayer time,
etc... we are losing this and that..." is because that mentality is already blocking
any forthcoming Divine action. In addition - if a writer does not want
a direct response from us, given with the loving intent to help the
writer in the most expeditious manner, please, do not write!

Because that is satan's full time job so that, by the time the
individual goes to the Final Judgment, with satan in attendance to
accuse you of all your misdeeds, the poor individual will accept that
he/she is not worthy of Heaven and then chose hell.
As we have said before - God does not send anyone to Eternal Damnation,
we make that choice at the time of the Final Judgment - craftily
coached by satan himself.
Why do you think that in the Catholic prayer: Hail Mary we ask:
"...pray for us sinners now and
at the hour of our death." We are asking Mary to assist us at
that very critical moment so that we do not make the wrong choice.
Of course none of us is intrinsically worthy of God's Love, Mercy, Forgiveness, except for the fact the God
Himself CHOSE to make us worthy of it.
Therefore, all that is required is that we strive to serve Him by being all He created us to be.
That is achieved by striving at having an interactive relationship with
God - day in and day out. How is this accomplished? Just like with
acquiring Faith - we must, in sincerity, ask Him for it. Then, He will
dispense it at the rate that we can accept and assume it.
Brethren - this just could not be any simpler or easier. This is
what The Good News is all about.

A Member of our Select List wonders....
Why I did not receive the good news on 1/13/07 like some of the others? I thought that I was signed up to receive all of your messages. This knowledge gave me a great deal of security, but now I'm wondering if I have missed other thoughts of yours as well. If you have time, please explain.
[Our brother in Christ refers to the communication that may be read on
the Public Forum dated
January 20th ]
You are indeed signed on all three Lists; however, no specific List was
used for said mailing.
If m de P's life depended on explaining why "x" received the
communication and "y" did not [ "x" + "y" = 20 ], he still could
not. We keep stressing that m de P is just a "gofer" for God -
the more m de P stays out of God's way, the better God can utilize him.
Your security and that of all who place their full trust in Him, is
squarely in the Hands of God, not in the hands of m de P - thus m de
P's every effort to stay out of His way so that He can be served well.
Why God wished to delay the publishing of that uplifting information
beyond those 20 individuals? We simply do not know. What we know
is that, being that it was the Will of God, it had,
by definition, to be good
for all - those who received it then and those who did not.
In the Kingdom of God, an opened door is as positive a sign as a closed
door is. With God a "No" is as positive a feedback from Him as a "Yes"
is.

Do you wonder, considering that the
Vatican claims that the occupant of the Chair of Peter is infallible,
the following took place?
Pope Benedict XVI is reported
to have been left "furious"
and
"isolated" by events of recent days when the man he approved as the
next Archbishop of Warsaw was exposed as an agent of the Polish secret
police.
But Benedict once again appears short on wise advisers or - worse
-
is being deliberately led into error by forces in the Vatican who are
out of sympathy with him.
Furthermore, if
the
election of a Pope in a Conclave is allowed to be guided by the
Holy Spirit of God,
why does it take so many ballots before a majority is reached? Is the
Holy Spirit confused or are the Cardinals engaged in a battle of wills
with God? [We know that the Holy Spirit of God IS NOT confused.]
Are the ones who did not vote for the "winner" not illuminated by the
Holy Spirit of God?, yet
they
Administer the Roman Catholic Church.

Do you ever wonder..... where does miguel de Portugal gets his information?
We just received a lengthy communication which has, at its core the
following: issue
So the writer said the
problem there was that he did not “know your face”. What if he
really meant he did not know where your revelations came from?
Too often people writing to you try to be delicate and do not say what
they mean (see point 2), so I will say it: Proper caution about
spiritual matters dictates that we consider the consequences if you are
dead wrong on some points, and the dangers are manifest. You have
steadfastly refused to state how you know these things, and that is the
core of the problem. That is, it is possible you are the
recipient of direct revelations from Heaven, spoken like the Angel who
spoke to Mary. I would NOT dismiss you out of hand if you were to
admit this, but it would put to me the challenge of whether to believe
the direct revelation or not, removing the subjective element of
trusting your interpretation of more subtle events. Proper caution about
spiritual matters dictates that we consider the consequences if you are
dead wrong on some points, and the dangers are manifest.
miguel as
not "steadfastly refused to state how" he knows the information.
As a matter of fact, in more than one communication he has given some
indication about that; however, let us just take the above message at
face value and "run with it".
Such questions bring to mind several Scriptural Passage; to wit:
First...
Matthew 21: 23 And when he was come into the temple,
there came to him, as he was teaching, the chief priests and ancients
of the people, saying: By what authority dost thou these things? and
who hath given thee this authority?
and then
Matthew 12: 24 But the Pharisees hearing it, said: This
man casteth not out the devils but by Beelzebub the prince of the
devils.
25 And Jesus knowing their thoughts, said to
them: Every kingdom
divided against itself shall be made desolate: and every city or house
divided against itself shall not stand.
26 And if Satan cast out
Satan, he is divided against himself: how then shall his kingdom stand?
27 And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by
whom do your children cast them out? Therefore they shall be your
judges.
28 But if I by the Spirit of God cast out
devils, then is the kingdom of God come upon you.
Very well, we will ask the writer and
all others that may share his thoughts -
Who would give the knowledge to miguel de
Portugal to:
Illuminate for all
the Secret Concept of the Holy
Trinity which has
escaped all theologians until now? An illumination which, if properly
used by those who claim to "be Christ on Earth" - a total blasphemy in
itself - would work the necessary miracles in
bringing
understanding and harmony between Jews, Christians and Muslims (we
are not
speaking about fanatics since
fanaticism
is
not of God).
Bring to the world
the
mechanism of why it appears that there is
reincarnation - even from a scientific point of view - yet there is
not, thus preventing many from making that fatal error?
As part of the above mentioned mechanism, miguel showed,
in graphic
ways, how Love can free a soul from evil influence. That is,
exactly why Jesus taught us to
Love your enemies, do
good to them that hate you.
Bless them that curse you, and pray for them that calumniate you. [Luke 6: 27-28]
Explain
clearly why seeking
fortune tellers and similar
entities to find out about the future is against God and why.
How to correctly understand Heavenly Messages by having a better grasp
of Time and Eternity.
Bring forth the
reality of the Catholic Faith.
Highlight
the
Importance of the Sacraments.
Impress upon the Faithful the need to Pray and Pray
More, as well as
what they can do
about the state of the world.
Explain and promote the value and power of praying the Rosary and
praying the Stations of
the Cross.
Clearly express the changes that should not be
made in the traditions
of the Catholic Faith and why.
Remind the world of all key
Marian Messages and
showing that by
ignoring them the world finds itself where it is now.
etc., etc.
The above knowledge was given to miguel
de Portugal by the Same One Who
told him to announce, as far back as March 19, 2002, that Rome
Has Lost the Faith and Will Soon Become the Seat of the False Christ
-
which will be ushered by
the AntiChrist
and
his minions.
How that information is transferred - although we have given some
indications in the past about the multiple systems used in the transfer
-
we will not explain it because it will be beyond the comprehension of
most, and besides, we must be careful, as Jesus warned us:
Give
not that which is holy to dogs; neither cast ye your pearls before swine, lest perhaps they trample them under
their feet, and turning upon you, they tear you. [Matthew 7:6]
and we know that we have some swine embedded amongst our readership.
What if miguel de Portugal is wrong about about the AntiChrist, you
ask? If you have to ask, you could not understand the answer.
This case - Is Closed;
we
have work to do.

We wonder.... how much of the following
will be necessary for the Faithful to wake up to the Ratzinger -
Benedict XVI reality:
Quotes from: Pope Urges
Need for 'Renewed Humanism'
VATICAN
CITY
(AP) -January 6, 2006- Religious leaders of
all faiths must play a role in ensuring that the spiritual and cultural
aspects of life are not forgotten as mankind tackles the challenges of
globalization, Pope Benedict XVI said Saturday.
In his homily
during Mass in St. Peter's Basilica,
the pope said recent decades have seen a "challenge to global
civilization, where the center can no longer be Europe and not even
that which we call the West or the North of the world."
"The
need emerged to
elaborate a new world political and economic order, but at the same
time and above all, a spiritual and cultural one _ that is, renewed
humanism," he said.
"At the start of
the Third Millennium we find
ourselves smack in the middle of this phase of human history, that has
been for some time dubbed 'globalization.'"
The pope said
that while politicians,
scientists and researchers play important roles in the modern world,
"today, more than ever, it is necessary to place at their side the
leaders of the great non - Christian religious traditions" as
well as
Christian leaders.
Benedict
appeared to be building on a theme often stressed by his predecessor, John Paul II, who worried that modernization was coming at the cost
of spirituality.
He made
the remarks during the Epiphany Mass, which recalls the journey of the
Magi, the three wise men guided by a star to pay homage to the baby
Jesus.
The M+G+R
Foundation Comments: "Spirituality" does not necessarily
mean Christianity or Islam; spirituality is more of a "code word" for
the
New Age wave as
well as Bishop Swing's dream:
The United Religion
Initiative.
We sincerely thank
Ratzinger
- Benedict XVI for making
the
discharge of
our function a much easier task. As we have often said: Even satan
must
serve God, Whom
miguel de
Portugal strives to serve in spite of his
great human limitations.

We cannot help but wonder.... why
the populace, who seems to be so environmental conscious, has
essentially
ignore our very
recent document regarding the overpopulation of the
world. Perhaps we should start "spicing up" our announcements as
the
tabloid like press (which is essentially most of the press today) does.
Something like "Britney and Paris do
Las Vegas and how that affect our population growth."
Remember, brethren -We are not "on commission" (God does not
"pay" us based on the number of hits); this is being done for your
benefit (God "pay" us just to make the information available to you).
Published
on January 1, 2007 [Solemnity of Mary,
Mother of God]
We cannot help but wonder.... why with so
many Catholics "talking Mary" and "talking Rosary" we have had so
little traffic in two key Marian Documents that we have On-Line: Mary,
the Mother of Jesus, is
unquestionably co-Redemptrix and Mediatrix of
All Graces and Mary,
is
unquestionably the Mother of God to anyone
who believes in the Most
Holy Trinity.
We have great respect for those who do not understand the Catholic
teachings (actually: Realities) of the Divine Motherhood of Mary
and the
Eucharistic Presence of Jesus, since thair position is due to
the fact that they have not been taught those realities; however, but
for the Catholics that all they do is "talk Mary", "talk Rosary" and
"talk Eucharistic Presence", although we assidiously pray for their
conversion, we have great difficulty "swallowing them".
Could it be that
we are "catching" something from Heaven? Something like:
But because thou art lukewarm, and neither
cold, not hot, I will begin to vomit thee out of my mouth. [Apocalypse 3:16]

Do you ever wonder.... why those who survive what is to come just prior
to the Second Coming of Jesus Christ must suffer so?
Before we can face God - manifested as such in the Second Coming - our
souls must be pure, the purity gained by souls in Purgatory.
Therefore - what we must endure before His Appearance is literally a
period of purgation or - Purgatory without the body having died.

[Feast of St. John the Apostle and Evangelist]
Do you ever wonder... why humanity is being
continually bombarded with Apocalyptic End-of-the-World (not End of
These Times BUT End of the World) propaganda like the History Channel
is doing this week?
Because satan wishes to bring humanity to the brink of despair and to
the
expectation that the End of the World is around the corner so that,
when the events associated with the End of These Times (NOT of the world) reach a
fever pitch, humanity will
think that the world is about to end and will desperately grasp
at any straws... welcoming
the FALSE Christ with open arms!
We continue to warn... but few will heed our calls.... just as it was
nearly 2000 years ago, except, that time, only Jerusalem was at
stake.... now, it is the whole world.
Trust and believe - All Is Truly Well if, only IF, you bring and place
your burdens at the foot the Cross and assume His Gentle Yoke.

Have you ever wondered who God meant him to be when
He spoke
through the prophet Malachias and said: Behold
I will send you Elijah the prophet, before the coming of the great and
dreadful day of the Lord. And he shall turn the heart of the
fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their
fathers: lest I come, and strike the earth with anathema.?
Wonder no more.

Have you ever wonder what God meant when He spoke
through the prophet Malachi and said:
2
And who shall be able to think of the day of his coming? and
who shall stand to see him? for he is like a refining fire, and like
the fuller's herb:
3 And he shall sit refining and cleansing
the silver, and he
shall purify the sons of Levi, and shall refine them as gold, and as
silver, and they shall offer sacrifices to the Lord in justice. [Malachi 3]
The "sons
of Levi" make up the priestly class of the Jews. Therefore, the clergy
and
Hierarchy of Christianity are the Christian version of the "sons
of Levi". Now, let us add that Malachi is speaking of the
Second coming of Jesus. Therefore, at the Second Coming "...he shall sit refining and cleansing the
silver, and he
shall purify the sons of Levi, and shall refine them as gold, and as
silver..." so that, once purified, "
...they shall offer sacrifices to the Lord
in justice."
Of course, that could be avoided if the Roman Catholic Church
would
follow our
instructions, given in His Most Holy Name. Something they will not
do so that
the
prophesied Crucifixion of the Mystical Body of Christ -
The Church - is fulfilled
so
that, once purified, "
...they
shall offer sacrifices to the Lord
in justice."

Do you know the difference between "being tested" by
God and "being tempted" by satan?
As we have pointed out elsewhere, the latin and English versions of the
well know prayer to Our Father have a major and offensive statement to
God.
In those versions - one of them, the Roman Catholic Church official
version - we pray (we actually insult God by saying): "...do not lead us into temptation..."
God does not lead His children into temptation; satan leads God's
children into temptation. So that the true Faithful understand
the difference between "Test" and "Temptation" we have used a parable
utilizing common world situations:
For an
individual with a sweet tooth and a weakness for chocolate...
Test:
Place before him a double fudge chocolate brownie.
Temptation:
Place before him a double fudge chocolate brownie AND entice him to eat
it utilizing many false logical reasons.
For a
womanizer...
Test:
Place him in contact with a very attractive woman in any kind of social
environment - but she does not make a move to catch his sexual
attention.
Temptation:
Place him in contact with a very attractive woman in any kind of social
environment - but she MAKES A MOVE - M. Lewinski style
If Monica
had minded her own business and not raised her dress when Clinton
complimented it, she would have been a Test for
Clinton; instead, by raising her dress as
a a very graphic enticement she became a Temptation to Clinton.
The Our
Father prayer should read instead: "....and
do not let us fall prey to temptation..."
Of course, we understand that David S. of Ireland and those who think
as he does, will continue to insult God by calling Him a tempter
because "...they know the face of the Holy Father but do not know the
face of miguel de Portugal".

Do you wonder why.... it seems that the "good" is the
one always suffering and the "bad" seems to always get scot-free?
RC explained it very well: I
feel that this struggle of good vs. evil is far from over and that the
"Elect" are going to suffer a major offensive from Satan. For
some reason I feel that Satan has a special interest in their souls and
will make a major push to get them. That is, Satan will strike at
the very roots of what they hold dear in life, whether it be spouse,
family, money, profession, etc. Whatever is held dearly will be
attacked so that the Elect will be tempted to curse God, much as Job
was tested. In short, I do not think that just going to Church
and putting in a few dollars in the collection each week is enough to
hold off Satan. I believe that fasting and prayer, sacrifice and
reparation, by us all will be essential to get through all of this.
Amen!

Do you wonder why.... we have stopped talking about
the famous Planet X and related matters? The answer lies in the
first part of our Planet X
document and, the follow up, in our Notes
About Planet X.
That we will be impacted by a comet/asteriod? Of
course we will!
The issue that we "keep harping on" is that the level of destruction
that will afflict our planet is strictly in our hands if we choose to
appeal to God as we have extensively explained in What Can We Do? Part
I and II.
Chasing Planets and Comets and little green men with
spidery fingers WILL NOT, we repeat, WILL NOT help humanity in any way.
Pray and then Pray
some more!
Prayer does work. We understand that many people cannot believe it
because of the condition of the world is in today in spite of millions
of Masses and Rosaries but we repeat: The problem has been the
"Shepherds" who have been more interested in self
perpetuation and not
in Evangelization. Most of the Faithful under their "watchful care" do
not even know how to pray! That is precisely why our Heavenly Mother
has had to intervene so
many times!
You think us wrong? Take a look at Bosco's
life. His
prayers were
heard by God; his boys prayers were heard by God; his supporters
prayers were heard by God - the only ones who did not hear a thing
Bosco had to teach was the Vatican! As Pavlov's dog only responded to
whatever would announce a pleasant stimulus, the
Vatican only responds
when they hear the tinkling of coins and the rustle of folding money!
