The Birth of Jesus

The Birth of Jesus

A reading from the Gospel of Saint Matthew 1, 1; 1, 17 – 25:

The book of the genealogy of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham.
Thus the total number of generations from Abraham to David is fourteen generations; from David to the Babylonian exile, fourteen generations; from the Babylonian exile to the Messiah, fourteen generations.
Now this is how the birth of Jesus came about. When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph but before they lived together, she was found with child through the Holy Spirit. Joseph, her husband, since he was a righteous man, yet unwilling to expose her to shame, decided to divorce her quietly. Such was his intention when, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary your wife into your home. For it is through the Holy Spirit that this child has been conceived in her. She will bear a son and you are to name him Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.” All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:
“Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son,
and they shall name him Emmanuel,” which means “God is with us.” When Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took his wife into his home. He had no relations with her until she bore a son, and he named him Jesus.

What a lovely sunny day we had on Tuesday. It was sunny the whole day. Although it was cold in the morning, it got somewhat warmer in the afternoon. It will be sunny again on Wednesday.

Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words,

“Although I am God, the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity, I was born on earth just like any other child. Believe My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters that I have two complete natures, divine and human. The one who played a great role so I could be born as a human being is My Mother Mary. She gave her consent to the angel Gabriel when he came to announce to Her that She would be My Mother. She was surprised at what the angel said but after he explained to Her how this would come about, She gave Her completely “yes” and at that moment She conceived Me in Her womb by the power of the Holy Spirit. Although She was carrying Me She went to visit her cousin Elizabeth and worked there to help her for three months. It was the Will of My Father that I should be born in King David’s town, Bethlehem. Although time had arrived for My Mother to give birth to Me, She went with Joseph, Her husband, and when She arrived in Bethlehem, She gave birth to Me. The great day had arrived for Me to be born on earth. I thank My Mother for all that She did in order to bring Me to birth and to take care of Me. I love Her with all My Heart.”

P.S. On Feb. 11 was the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes, the Immaculate Conception. She was chosen by God Himself to give birth to Our Savior here on earth. What a great and wonderful act this is! May the Lord bless you all.

The Epilogue

The Epilogue

A reading from the Book of Revelation 22, 6 – 21:

And he said to me, “These words are trustworthy and true, and the Lord, the God of prophetic spirits, sent his angels to show his servants what must happen soon.” “Behold, I am coming soon.” Blessed is the one who keeps the prophetic message of this book.
It is I, John, who heard and saw these things, and when I heard and saw them I fell down to worship at the feet of the angel who showed them to me. But he said to me, “Don’t! I am a fellow servant of yours and of your brothers the prophets and of those who keep the message of this book. Worship God.”
Then he said to me, “Do not seal up the prophetic words of this book, for the appointed time is near. Let the wicked still act wickedly, and the filthy still be filthy. The righteous must still do right and the holy still be holy.”
“Behold, I am coming soon. I bring with me the recompense I will give to each according to his deeds. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end.”
Blessed are they who wash their robes so as to have me right in the tree of life and enter the city through its gates. Outside are the dogs, the sorcerers, the unchaste, the murderers, the idol-worshipers, and all who live and practice deceit.
“I, Jesus, sent my angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the root and offspring of David, the bright morning star.”
The Spirit and the bride say, “Come.” Let the hearer say, “Come.” Let the one who thirsts come forward and the one who wants it receive the gift of life-giving water.
I warn everyone who hears the prophetic words in this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, and if anyone takes away from the words in this prophetic book, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city described in the book.
The one who gives this testimony says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen! Come, Lord Jesus.
The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all.

We had a little bit of snow on Monday morning but not even one centimeter. It was sunny for most of the day and it will be sunny tomorrow Tuesday.

Below you will find the message of Our Lord, the Son of God, given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words,

“Believe My words My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters who love to read the Bible especially the New Testament. We have come to the end of the Book of Revelation and I told Saint John, the Apostle, that no one should add to what is written here and no one should take away from the prophetic words of this book. Accept it all as coming from Me and all what is written in it will come to pass in the future. It might be difficult to understand because it has not yet happened, but believe it and live according to what is written.
The most important words are those for all the people of the world who are destined to go to one of the two places that are written. If you follow Me and do what I told you, you will be with Me one day in heaven. If you refuse to follow Me then you will be thrown into hell where you will live forever in this everlasting fire. Choose wisely and come to follow Me today. I love you all.”

The River of Living Water

February 10, 2014

The River of Living Water

A reading from the Book of Revelation 22, 1 – 5:

Then the angel showed me the river of life-giving water, sparkling like crystal, flowing from the throne of God and of the Lamb down the middle of its street. On either side of the river grew the tree of life that produces fruit twelve times a year, serve as medicine for the nations. Northing accursed will be found there anymore. The throne of God and of the Lamb will be in it and his servants will worship him. They will look upon his face, and his name will be on their foreheads. Night will be no more, nor will they need light from lamp or sun, for the Lord God shall give them light, and they shall reign forever and ever.

What a beautiful Sunday we had! It was sunny the whole day and hardly a cloud in the sky. It was cold in the morning but it got warmer in the afternoon. I thank the Lord for this beautiful day.

Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words,

“Believe in the life-giving water that flows from the throne of God and from My throne, My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters. Know that the life-giving water refers to the grace that I won for you all. It is flowing from the Father’s throne and from Me to all the people of the earth. You need to believe in Me in order to profit from this wonderful grace that I won for you. Have faith and open your heart to Me and I will fill you with this marvelous grace, which you all need in order to have the power to follow Me and to reach heaven one day. You need My grace to overcome the power of the evil one and to say “no” to all those who teach falsehood and call you to follow the one who lives in darkness. Come to Me in the light and you will be blessed on earth and later on in heaven. I love you and I am working to save you.”
