The Light of the World
A reading from the Gospel of Saint John 8, 12 – 20:
Jesus spoke to the Jews again saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” So the Pharisees said to him, “You testify on your own behalf, so your testimony cannot be verified.” Jesus answered and said to them, “Even if I do testify on my own behalf, my testimony can be verified, because I know where I come from and where I am going. You judge by appearances, but I do not judge anyone. And even if I should judge, my judgment is valid, because I am not alone, but it is I and the Father who sent me. Even in your law it is written that the testimony of two men can be verified. I testify on my behalf and so does the Father who sent me.”
So they said to him, “Where is your father?” Jesus answered, “You know neither me nor my Father. If you knew me, you would know My Father also.” He spoke these words while teaching in the treasury in the temple area. But no one arrested him, because his hour had not yet come.
We had a sunny morning today Tuesday but it started to rain in the afternoon. We will have more rain tomorrow. I thank all those who have sent me money to pay in order to end the court case so that the money of Our Lord and Our Blessed Mother may come in very soon. Please continue to pray that everything will develop beautifully.
Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Redeemer given to Father Melvin. Jesus told him these words,
“I am your light My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters who have faith in Me. If you follow Me, you will never walk in darkness but you will have the light of life. So many people are walking in the darkness today because they are following the ways of the world. They have rejected Me as their Savior. Many have stopped going to Church on Sunday and they do not have a spiritual relationship with Me. They are like the Jews of old who refused to accept Me as their Messiah. However, My brothers and sisters, a new era is coming when the faith of the people will be revived and the people will live in union with Me. Pray My dear friends that this new era comes soon. I bless you all.”
