Live by Faith in the Lord

Live by Faith in the Lord

A reading from Saint Paul’s Letter to the Romans 10, 1 – 13:

Brothers and sisters, my heart’s desire and prayer to God on their behalf is for salvation. I testify with regard to them that they have zeal for God but it is not discerning. For, in their unawareness of the righteousness that comes from God and their attempt to establish their own righteousness, they did not submit to the righteousness of God. For Christ is the end of the law for the justification of everyone who has faith.
Moses writes about the righteousness that comes from the law, “The one who does these things will live by them.” But the righteousness that comes from faith says, “Do not say in your heart, ‘Who will go up into heaven?’ (that is, to bring Christ down) or ‘Who will go down into the abyss?’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead).” But what does it say?
“The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart”
(that is, the word of faith that we preach), for, if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For one believes with the heart and so is justified, and one confesses with the mouth and so is saved. For the scripture says, “No one who believes in him will be put to shame.” For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, the same Lord is Lord of all, enriching all who call upon him. For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

I am praying and many are praying with me that the money will come in so that we can start the building of the two monasteries and the Shrine to Our Lord of Prince Edward Island. There is news that the money should come in shortly but the judge and lawyer are forever asking for money. At this time they are asking for $3,500 to end their work so I can receive the money. Please pray that this money will soon come in.

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

“My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters, I call you all to live according to the faith you have been given and never reject this wonderful gift that you have. You know that it is absolutely necessary to believe in Me if you want to be saved. If you believe in Me, Your Redeemer, you will follow all that I have told you especially to love God with all your heart and soul and to love your neighbor as yourself. You are to forgive all those who have hurt you in any way and Our Heavenly Father will forgive you all your sins. I have called you many times to pray every day and especially your rosary and to go to church every Sunday and during the week if it is possible. Do not accept the falsehood that so many people today try to get you to believe. One of the worst is New Age and so many protestant churches tell you that abortion is not sinful or that same-sex marriage is not wrong. Do not believe these things for they do not come from Me, your Savior, but these teachings come from the devil. Follow My Church and you will be following Me. I love you all and I bless you all.”

Witness of the Prophets

October 27, 2014

Witness of the Prophets

A reading from Saint Paul’s Letter to the Romans 9, 25 – 33:

As indeed he says in Hosea:
“Those who were not my people I will call ‘my people,’ and her who was not beloved I will call beloved. And in the very place where it was said to them, ‘You are not my people,’ there they shall be called children of the living God.”
And Isaiah cries out concerning Israel, “Though the number of the Israelites were like the sand of the sea, only a remnant will be saved; for decisively and quickly will the Lord execute sentence upon the earth.” And as Isaiah predicted:
“Unless the Lord of hosts had left us descendants, we would have become like Sodom and have been made like Gomorrah.”
What then shall we say? That Gentiles, who did not pursue righteousness, have achieved it, that is, righteousness that comes from faith; but that Israel, who pursued the law of righteousness, did not attain to that law? Why not? Because they did it not by faith, but as if it could be done by works. They stumbled over the stone that causes stumbling, as it is written:
“Behold, I am laying a stone in Zion that will make people stumble and a rock that will make them fall, and whoever believes in him shall not be put to shame.”

We are coming to the end of the month of October and on the lst of November we will celebrate the Feast of All Saints. This is a great feast and these saints are those who are canonized but most of them have not been canonized but they are in heaven just the same. I am sure we all have members of our families who are in heaven. Let us prepare to honor them on this great feast.

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

“You are the children of God My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters who believe in Me and follow Me. Saint Paul tells us in his letter to the Romans that only a remnant of the Jews will be saved because they do not believe. However, those who are not Jews but have accepted Me as their Savior and have great faith will be saved. It is the Gentiles who have believed in Me and many of them are in heaven or will be in heaven later. It is their faith that saves them. A person cannot be saved by following the law of the Jews but you need to believe in Me and live in union with Me. You have to be people of prayer and to say ‘no’ to the temptations of the devil. Even if you should fall at times, you can repent by receiving the Sacrament of Reconciliation and be reunited to Me. All you believers, never forget that I live in your heart and this is your ticket to enter heaven. Come and open your heart to me every day so I can live with you. I bless you all and I love you all.”

P.S. It was cloudy today but we did not have any rain. I hope we will have the sun tomorrow.

Paul’s Love for Israel

Paul’s Love for Israel

A reading from Saint Paul’s Letter to the Romans 9, 1 – 5:

I speak the truth in Christ, I do not lie, my conscience joins with the Holy Spirit in bearing me witness that I have great sorrow and constant anguish in my heart. For I could wish that I myself were accursed and separated from Christ for the sake of my brothers, my kin according to the flesh. They are Israelites; theirs the adoption, the glory, the covenants, the giving of the law, the worship, and from them, according to the flesh, is the Messiah. God who is over all be blessed forever. Amen

I went three times to Israel and the first time I went there I stayed for three months. I followed a course on the New Testament in Jerusalem and I made a thirty-day retreat and it was in silence. I had the joy with all my friends to visit many parts of Israel especially dear to Jesus our Savior. I spent a week in Nazareth and visited all the places around. I visited every day the Church of the Annunciation in Nazareth which is the most beautiful church in Israel. I visited Cana and drank wine there. I also spend a day in a boat on the Sea of Galilee and I went to other places too. In Jerusalem I stayed at Saint Anne’s Shrine where Our Blessed Mother was born. I went almost every day to the Holy Sepulcher where Jesus was crucified, was buried and rose from the dead. I also climbed the Holy Mountain where Jesus was assumed into heaven. A great joy for me was to celebrate Holy Mass at the place of the crucifixion where Jesus died and at the tomb of Our Lord where the Resurrection took place. My retreat was very special indeed. I lived the Passion with Our Lord for two weeks during the retreat. I will never forget my stay in Israel.

Below you will find the message of Our Blessed Mother given to Father Melvin. She spoke to him these words, “I bless you My son Melvin and all My sons and daughters who believe with all your heart in My Son Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Yes He was born in Bethlehem in Israel for I was born in Israel and so I am a Jewess. This is my dear country where I learn all about God as My Creator and how much He loves us. I became very familiar with the Old Testament which is the Bible of the Jewish people. I was born in Jerusalem, very near the Temple and I went there often. My mother and father, Saint Anne and Saint Joachim, were great believers and they are saints today. I was the one chosen by God the Father to become the Mother of His Son Jesus. The Father sent the Angel Gabriel to visit me and to announce that I would be the Mother of Jesus. I accepted this great gift and I became His Mother. My husband Joseph and I took care of Him as He grew up and when He began His public life I was still living but Joseph had died. I followed My Son and I was present during His Passion, the Way of the Cross and I was on the hill when He was nailed to the cross and where He died. He spoke to me just before He died telling me that I was the Mother of John the Apostles who stood for all of you. Please pray for the people of Israel that they will be converted and come to believe in My Son Jesus. He is their Savior too and He loves them all. I love you all My children.”

Father Melvin

P.S. Today was a day of rain and it was cloudy the whole day.
