GRM 67.3

The Gospel as revealed to me

Quotation

Oh! how miserable are those who rely on human means to win, and who do not realise that holiness and not violence will make us winners both on the earth and beyond it! Because God is with the just.

GRM 75.4

The Gospel as revealed to me

Quotation

«And my children?»

«They are angels, Elias. Angels who will repeat the “Gloria” when the Saviour is crowned.

«King?»

«No, Redeemer. Oh! What a procession of just people and saints! And in front there will be the white and purple phalanges of the martyrs! As soon as the gates of Limbo are opened, we shall ascend together to the eternal Kingdom. And then you will come and will find your fathers, mothers and children in the Lord! Believe Me.»

«Yes, my Lord.»

Detail

Elie has lost his children in the massacre of the Innocents. He asks the Master about their fate.

GRM 83.2

The Gospel as revealed to me

Quotation

«Is pain not always evil?»

«No, My friend, It is evil from a human point of view, but from a supernatural one it is good. It increases the merits of just people, who accept it without despairing or rebelling and they offer it, as they offer themselves with resignation, as a sacrifice to expiate their own imperfections and the faults of the world, and it is a redemption for those who are not good.»

«It is so difficult to suffer!» says the farmer, who has been joined by his relatives, about ten people in all, adults and children.

«I know that man finds it difficult. And knowing that he would find it so difficult, the Father had not given His children any sorrow. It came due to sin. But how long does sorrow last on the earth? In the life of a man? A short time. It is always short, even if it lasts a whole lifetime. Now I say: is it not better to suffer for a short time rather than forever? Is it not better to suffer here than in Purgatory? Consider that time there is multiplied one thousand fold. Oh! I solemnly tell you: you ought not to curse pain, but bless it, and you should call it “grace” and “mercy”.
